The Capital Grille 12169 Fair Lakes Promenade Dr, Fairfax Fine Dining • $$$$

“The restaurant is beautifully decorated for the holidays, with spacious seating and not noisy dining rooms. We had the lobster and crab cake and French onion soup for starters, both were delicious. Our dinner entrees were seared sea scallops with Maine lobster and asparagus risotto, pan-seared sea bass , and filet mignon. Everything was extremely flavorful, including the soy-glazed Brussels Sprouts with bacon, and creamed spinach. Service was equally impressive, very fast and attentive. We definitely enjoyed our evening meal there.

Parking: There are plenty of free parking spaces available in the parking lot, and for the lazy or physically challenged drivers, there is valet service.”

“Decided to try this place out, and I was very much impressed. The staff is very attentive and gives their customers such good care. The hospitality was just amazing. Even the ambiance gave the whole restaurant an inviting atmosphere. Not only that, but the food was phenomenal itself. Their havuc (carrot dip) is incredibly addicting as well as the grilled red pepper dip. The meat was seasoned very well, giving my food amazing flavor. I typically don’t like chicken, but the chicken dish I got was absolutely phenomenal. The cocktails served not only tasted great but were aesthetically pleasing (and perfect for pictures). Before I left, I got the date soft serve ice cream and it eas absolutely delicious. There was a little salt sprinkled on, giving it a perfect balance of salty and sweet. It tasted similar to salted caramel and overall was delicious. Everything from the food to the environment at Kirby Club was fantastic and I will definitely be going back.”

“This place is kind of small hole in the wall. Seats about 14 or so outside and not many more people inside. Nice menu that's not too large or too small. Some Tex-Mex menus have way too many choices. The starter tortilla chips and salsa were top notch. Service all around was excellent. I had the Chicken Chimichanga and it was one of the best I've ever had. It came with rice and refried beans as well as pico, sour cream, guacamole, and lettuce. Everything was delicious, cooked perfectly, and reasonably priced. The presentation was great as well Can't wait to come back.”

“Loved the food and service at Fujisan. Everything was beautifully plated and there were definitely creative items on the menu. My favorites were the seared salmon belly, Ishiyaki where they cook the beef on the hot iron stone, wagyu uni (simply gorgeous and delicious), sushi tacos, and salmon volcano rice. Yakitori platter was great because we had a variety of tastings. The mushrooms and pork belly were my fav! My friends ordered the soup dobin mushi which comes in the cutest tea pot. If you want something beautiful yet the Fujisan box deluxe. Never seen anything like it, so colorful and lots of fresh raw fish, eel, fish egg, etc. Nice to have something different than your typical sushi boat. The ambiance is really nice too. Very beautifully designed with blues and golds. Very classy. The sushi was very fresh I find that some places don’t have fresh cold fish how it should be so I’m glad this place did not disappoint. As for desserts the green tea mochi, tempura ice cream, and cheesecake were amazing. Personal favorite is cheesecake. Highly recommend!”

“This place is incredible. I am not aware of any other luosifen noodle house in the area. If you, like me, are a newcomer to this style of noodle soup, you are going to be extremely impressed. The bone broth is bracing, complex, and flavorful, far richer and deeper than pho or tonkotsu. Recommend getting it spicy: it brings all the flavors together without being overwhelming. Additionally, the Sichuan menu is one of the best in the area, second only to Mama Chang's and Hong Kong Palace. This place is pretty new and trying to get its feet underneath it. Let's support high quality food!”

From the moment you step inside, you're embraced by a warm, welcoming atmosphere and the aromatic allure of authentic Thai cuisine.

The Green Curry is another star, its richness and depth of flavor truly showcasing the art of Thai cooking. Service here is impeccable. The staff are attentive, friendly, and go above and beyond to ensure your dining experience is nothing short of perfect. They are knowledgeable about the menu and more than willing to accommodate any dietary preferences or modifications. But what truly sets Courtside Thai Cuisine apart is the ambiance. The decor is elegant yet cozy, providing an ideal backdrop for both casual dinners and special occasions. It's a place where every meal feels like a celebration. In a world full of dining options, Courtside Thai Cuisine stands out as a beacon of culinary excellence and hospitality.

“A Hidden Gem for Coffee and Sandwich Lovers De Clieu, a charming coffee and sandwich shop tucked away in the heart of Old Town Fairfax has quickly become my go-to spot for a perfect cup of coffee and sandwich when I'm in the area. Coffee and Organic Teas: (5/5) De Clieu's coffee, Organic Tea and drink options are nothing short of exceptional. Their baristas are clearly passionate about their craft, as every cup is brewed with precision and care, from their Drip, French Press, Chemex pour overs and Organic Teas. The espresso is rich and full-bodied, and they offer premium roasted beans and brewing methods to cater to every palate. I've tried their lattes, cappuccinos, teas, and cold brews, and I've never been disappointed. Whether you're a coffee connoisseur or just enjoy a good cold brew, De Clieu has you covered. Sandwiches Plus: (5/5) The sandwiches, bakery items, and Gelato at De Clieu are a delightful surprise. Made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, each bite is a burst of flavor. I've worked my way through much of their menu, and each creation has been more delicious than the last. From the Spicy Swine and Honey Bread to the inventive vegetarian options, there's something for everyone. The bread is always perfectly toasted, and the combinations of flavors and textures are superb. Overall Impression: (5/5) De Clieu is a coffee and sandwich shop that embodies all the qualities I look for in a great café. It's a place that combines exceptional coffee, delectable sandwiches, sides, and a welcoming atmosphere, all at a price that won't leave your wallet empty. Whether you're a regular looking for your daily caffeine fix or a traveler seeking a local gem, Delieu is the answer. It's clear the owner takes pride in what they do and how they train their team, and it shows in every aspect of their operation. I can't recommend this place highly enough, and I'm excited to see it thrive and become a beloved part of the community. There are ample parking options available in the vicinity as well.”

Kabob Corner 10893 Main St, Fairfax Afghan • $

“Hidden gem: Afghan Carrayee! It reminds me of karahi. I got the lamb. It was grilled separately, cut, and added to fried tomatoes, peppers, onions, and spices with plenty of fragrant oil. Served with a huge piece of tandoori bread to soak up all the flavorful sauce. It also comes with a cool yogurt sauce and spicy green sauce. I've also had the Quabili Palau: Skillfully-seasoned lamb under a heap of spiced brown rice, topped with carrot strips, raisins and meat sauce. The portion sizes are massive. I don't know how they got all that food in the box. I ate it for days. My son liked the chicken kabob, also came with a healthy portion of two different kinds of rice. The chickpeas and eggplant are also very good! The staff/owners are very friendly. The meat is cooked when ordered, so if you are in a hurry order ahead. If you order there and wait they might just give you a free bowl of lentil soup to eat while you wait! If you are on the go try the wraps served with fries or choose a side. They also have wraps without a side as a special for $7.50. It's not on the website or menu, but a good deal.”

“Came here with my husband for a Sunday date night. Omg everything was so good we finished it all. Started off with the salmon tatare which I highly recommend - it’s sweet and savory. Burrata was great but I dipped it in the salmon tatare’s sauce to give it some sweetness. Crab cake was delicious, I would ask for it to be super saucey if that’s how you like it. Then we had filet mignon (medium rare of course) with fingerling potatoes and Brussels. Loved it with the Demi glaze and bernaise and occasional dipping in the chimichurri. Hubby got the scallop and shrimp risotto with a buttery wine flavored sauce which we loved. Again we finished everything. Last but not least we had the blueberry pie and the banana cream dream. Although we finished it all I’d have to say the banana cream dream was the clear winner. Great ambiance and our server Melissa was super friendly. Drinks are also great. 😋”

“Loved the food and service at Fujisan. Everything was beautifully plated and there were definitely creative items on the menu. My favorites were the seared salmon belly, Ishiyaki where they cook the beef on the hot iron stone, wagyu uni (simply gorgeous and delicious), sushi tacos, and salmon volcano rice. Yakitori platter was great because we had a variety of tastings. The mushrooms and pork belly were my fav! My friends ordered the soup dobin mushi which comes in the cutest tea pot. If you want something beautiful yet the Fujisan box deluxe. Never seen anything like it, so colorful and lots of fresh raw fish, eel, fish egg, etc. Nice to have something different than your typical sushi boat. The ambiance is really nice too. Very beautifully designed with blues and golds. Very classy. The sushi was very fresh I find that some places don’t have fresh cold fish how it should be so I’m glad this place did not disappoint. As for desserts the green tea mochi, tempura ice cream, and cheesecake were amazing. Personal favorite is cheesecake. Highly recommend!”

The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is serene with great music. The music volume is perfect too so you can still socialize without having to shout. My favorite amenities though, are the self-pour feature, the diversity of beer flavors, and the ease of paying. The taps are really easy to use and to keep track of how much your bar tab is accumulating. On top of that, you don't have to wait at all for a refill- just head on up to the tap and pour, amazing system! The Irish Red beer was my go-to, and it was very pleasing to see that on tap when it's not actually Oktoberfest season, (I can never seem to find it most times of the year). We will all definitely be back, as well as looking forward to visiting their Lorton location! Keep up the great work and the awesome selection of beers, mad props!”

“A brewery with some good food! A friend recommended this place for its Taiwanese street food, so I decided to give it a try. I sampled as much as I could, and while some dishes stood out, others didn’t quite meet my taste—just my personal opinion. The Dan Dan noodle sauce and beef pancake were excellent, with spices that were spot on. However, the beef noodle soup felt like it might have come from a central kitchen package. The pork bao was great, with a good size, but the pork belly had too much fat for my liking. The Three-Cup Fried Tofu had a sauce that was overly sweet, and the tofu cubes could have been larger to achieve that crispy skin with a soft texture inside. The lemongrass chicken had good flavor but was unfortunately a bit dry. Overall, we enjoyed the experience—it was a mix of hits and misses. The service and atmosphere were friendly and cozy. Give it a try if you haven’t yet!”

Must try their paneer Chilli and puri bhaji. The best part of my experience was to see the special masala fried papad on the table. Yes, they serve fried papad, not the roasted ones. I strongly recommend a visit. Give an opportunity to the Aroma chefs to satisfy your taste buds, you won't be disappointed.”

Our group of 7 senior women were served by wait staff who were pleasant and patient as we gathered and took our time ordering their delicious salads. They had a nice selection of salad and soup. We all enjoyed our meals. We were also celebrating 2 birthdays. They offered the birthday girls a selection of deserts that were free for the two celebrants. We all sang Happy Birthday and even our waiter joined us We will certainly plan to visit again soon.in singing!”

“The moment you walk in, the environment is so welcoming, fresh, and vibey. It's like you know " this is going to be good". Then you are greeted, and the service was just that much better. She was awesome, super friendly and likeable. Didn't have to wait too long for food, clearly it was made fresh to order because when i got it (chicken ceaser wrap with fries) it was AMAZING. the fries were so perfectly crisp and warm, the wrap was balanced, warm, but not too warm because of the lettuce. Cannot rave enough about my experience, and the food. I'm looking forward to when i can make it back for another meal!”

We came to find out he was actually the owner. We sat down waiting on our food, and it was hot, fresh, and made to order. The flavor was outstanding! If you get a chance to stop by this spot, you will not be disappointed.”

“This is the 2nd Yu's I've been to. Usually go to the Herndon location. This locations very similar but a bit smaller. Menu is interesting in that they have extra vegetarian options. I had the vegetarian buns and scallion pancakes. Buns were fresh but a little bland which is kind of expected from Chinese places they don't kinda know how to make veggie stuff tasty. Noodles are good though, exception.”
