“My Great Dane and I had a couple beers and a couple burgers and made a couple dozen new friends. The place is always crowded but the staff is never busy and have a cool professionalism that is welcoming and efficient. One of my favorite places to sit and relax with my best friend on four legs.“
“Well simmered broth. Large portion. It's part of JINYA Holdings so you know the quality is consistent.The setup at location has the feel of a sport bar on the bar side adjacent to the food court. Though dimly lit, it had a nice ambiance and not too loud.“
“Amazing dinner with my family and a friend. The service was top-notch! My husband raved about his duck confit, and I loved the braised short ribs. Not many options for the kids entree, but they were happy when the Belgian waffles came for dessert.Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating for kids.“
“Picked it up and on my 12 min drive home, it didn't get cold at all and stayed crispy till the very end. So pleased with the way they packaged it and more importantly, VERY pleased with the taste/quality of the wings! Would definitely order again. Hope the business can keep this up!“
“Very good bar/vegan food. Prices seem all over with place, with some items overpriced and some quite cheap. Example: burger for $16, but a generous plate of eggplant fries + dipping sauces for $3. In total, it was about $30 for a burger, fries and a beer for one person. Maybe I’m just not used to DC prices, but it felt expensive. Good vegan food, though, and fast, friendly service.Vegetarian options: Full menu is vegan“
“Do you know how difficult it is to find a place that has beef ribs? Very! Rocklands met my requirements and whenever that craving hits, we make the drive just to grab some beef ribs, delicious dill potato salad, cheesy Mac n' cheese and of course their jalapeño corn bread! You will be sated and will waddle out of the restaurant a happy customer!“
“Very bright, warm, friendly location. Drink offerings are varied and refreshing. The staff are always responsive and even offers firepit in the winter. Definitely has grown exponentially since their initial opening. Great local brewery. Parking has been a battle as far as access, but the location is very cute and welcoming.“
“*Visited April 7thMy usual ramen spot closes at 3:30 pm and reopens at 4:30pm- which caused me to find another ramen establishment. Came across Hanabi Ramen and ordered the Gyudon beef .It was like listening to a beautiful- yet technical violin concerto comprised of 3 movements:The Broth will represent the 1st mvt (Adagio)The seasonings and the tempura crumbs complementing the broth will represent the 2nd mvt (Allegro non troppo)The beef and the Udon noodles will represent the 3rd mvt (Presto)Resulting in a perfect dish, the beef reminded me of a hint of bulgogi (something I make at home) pairing very well with the broth adding such a contrast between a light sweetness and savory note. Perfectly balanced and composed I can detect there was a lot of thought put in the dish and I just loaned for more. Every taste was a new discovery and I was highly impressed. Very homey with a lot of notes and I will be back at the establishment again soon!“
“Really delicious, cat-themed restaurant with the same vibe as its counterpart, Lost Dog Cafe. My burger was juicy and flavorful and the cocktails were spectacular — pricey — but super fresh and creative.Vegetarian options: All burgers come with a vegetarian option and most of the other sandwiches are riffs on a grilled cheese.Parking: There is a small parking lot out front, but the spaces are a bit tight.“
“I just wanted to post a review to say THANK YOU to the staff today!! I took my husband there for a "surprise" belated birthday get-together with family...I wasn't sure if 5 people or 15 people were going to show up! Our family loved the atmosphere and the food was soooooooo good. It was also so family friendly, as we had 6 kids under age 6! I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again, but I'm sending all my NOVA family your way!!“
“We came from out of state (NC) and just happened to Google bars around and this popped up. Hands down the best time we had. Luke, the bartender, was funny and amazing. We ended up going back the next day just to see him before we left town. Definitely will be back!“
“I like this place. The food is good, with vegan and gluten-free options!(I have had *better* Thai food. All of Finn Thai's curry has fish sauce in it and can not be made vegan=no 5 star rating.)(Now that I think of it.... when I say I have had better Thai food, maybe it's because I'm comparing it to curry dishes I have had elsewhere, when here I was unable to have curry. Maybe I just like curry better? Lol. I'm just trying to be completely honest!)The food always comes out super fast!! Like, always surprisingly fast!! On Valentine's Day, for example, we went before the dinner rush (there was only one other table seated in the restaurant when we arrived), and without buying alcohol we were in and out in under 45 minutes! (I mention not having alcohol because if we were also taking time to enjoy drinks, it probably would have taken longer)Takeaway: In my experience, great for a quick *real* meal. Early dinner times always seem like a great time to go/not busy.Will be back. This is the closest restaurant to where I currently live with vegan/gluten-free options.Vegetarian options: Definitely ask!! A lot of dishes don't necessarily have tofu listed as a protein option, but in my experience, they are happy to use tofu instead of meat.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten-free and vegan options! All of the curry has fish sauce in it, which sucks as that is my favorite Thai dish. I don't remember everything being labeled well on the menu, but definitely ask! The servers are always knowledgeable, in my experience, and can help guide you to something appropriate for you!I have not been "glutened" here!Parking: The parking lot directly in front of the restaurant is small, but every time I visited, there were plenty of spots. The restaurant is in the back of a large shopping/business area, so there is plenty of free parking around, but if it is busy, you may have to park a bit farther.Wheelchair accessibility: There are steps up to the restaurant. Like... more than just a few steps.“
“This eatery gave me a compelling reason to give 5-stars. They were pleasantly polite and respectful. The place was extremely clean and had a friendly ambiance with tidy table. I enjoyed the food which was ready in 10min. Overall, a great experience. Enough parking available if you drive.“
“In town for a conference and this place is perfect for solo dining. Bartenders and servers were welcoming and helpful. Delicious wine list, and a fun selection of cheeses and charcuterie. Onion jam was special. The assortment of breads served with the cheeseboard were warm from the oven, it’s a small touch, but it’s not often done. Only thing I would change is to offer a wine flight so I could try several different wines.“
“This place is outstanding! Amazing atmosphere, delicious food, reasonable price, incredible beer selection! The bar tender was very knowledgeable and helps us pick out what we loved. We had salads and pizza. Very fresh ingredients. And we got to help some lucky local dogs and cats. A win!“
“Best apartment complex on the Strip! This building has everything you could ever need as a college student. The leasing and maintenance staff are friendly and helpful. Hands-down the most convenient place to live as a UMD student, as it's the closest apartment off the high way and only 10 mins away from downtown silver spring!!!!“
“Such a cute little modern spot. All the food was great and fresh. Fries, bao, popcorn chicken, and pork belly were all great. Good beer selection. Loved all the different beer glasses. Went in on a Sunday evening so it wasn’t very busy at all. Waiter checked on us consistently (sometimes that’s actually an issue when it’s slow, but not here!) will def be back to try the rest of the menu.Dietary restrictions: Popcorn chicken is gluten free. There are other options noted as gluten free too. Nice to have some options that aren’t boring or bad substitutes. Hard to find any sort of breaded chicken that’s gluten free. Bravo!“
“It doesn't look like much from the outside. But just walk through those doors and you'll immediately change your mind.Fantastic brews at great prices, amazing food made by a skilled cook, and friendly, charming service from the bartender.This is one of those hole in the walls that will reward you greatly for stepping in.“
“I'm writing this review after trying Big Buns Vienna branch, and the newest location in Fairfax (which still doesn't have a yelp entry at the time of writing this review). I tried the Classic burger, the Hot and Hefe, and the Shirlington Hot Nashville chicken sandwich.This is not your typical run-of-the-mill fast food burger joint. For the beef burgers, this place makes them exclusively from angus beef which makes for a totally elevated burger experience. I ordered mine medium and they were SO juicy and flavorful.The Nashville hot chicken sandwich (Shirlington) caught me by complete surprise. I didn't expect a burger place to sell such flavorful and truly hot chicken sandwich. It's not for the faint hearted, though. Order your hot sauce on the side and add it to taste if you cant take the heat. But don't sleep on this one. It tastes way better than at specialized hot chicken restaurants.I took away one star because the lower part of the bun gets very soggy and starts to disintegrate by the time you reach home. I would choose dine-in over takeaway for that reason. I hope they work on sourcing better quality buns or figure out a way for their buns not to get too soggy and ruin the nearly-perfect burger experience. Also, their fries portions are small compared to the price.Nevertheless, I'm definitely coming back for more flavorful burgers and hot chicken!“
“This place has filled a void left by Carpool (I know it's back, at least in Virginia Square). One big difference between the two is the food. The pizza is great and I really like the steak and cheese. It has a nice amount of games, but not so many that it feels gimmicki. I feel like beers are pricey, but that is pretty much everywhere these days.“
“Literally my favorite place in the area. Food is incredible from around the globe, service is outstanding no matter who it is, and the atmosphere is amazing! It gives you a concert venue feel with an amazing sound system. They book the best bands and have different themes during the week. There’s something for everyone here!“
“Came in for the first time with my teen, and while the registration process is a bit onerous (long), it's also reasonable considering they're checking dogs for vaccination and that owners are caring for their dogs. After that, I grabbed a beer (12oz port city optimal wit, $9), our pup started socializing with other dogs, and I met some other people's pups too. The staff are very helpful & friendly, the atmosphere is definitely nice with ambient music, and the furnishings are industrial/minimalist- but considering the number of dogs- perfect for the clientele! This Sunday afternoon included about two dozen dogs, from miniature Pomeranians to Great Danes. Almost all were very social (what we were looking for) and the staff were quick to help on any issues or pup exuberant or aggressive play.“
“First time here tonight. Our group of three had the cod tacos, steak wedge salad and Cubano sandwich and all was delicious. Our server was Shauna and she did a great job for us - listened well and made good recommendations for us - very personable and very good at her job. It was a little loud due to being crowded so a little hard to hear - otherwise nearly perfect experience. Would definitely go back!“
“Listennnnnnn, I've had Astro Doughnuts before and they are amazing. But the one in VA is the only one that gives you a doughnut with espresso in it! They cut a hole in the doughnut put Nutella in there and that keeps it from soaking the doughnut.....whoever invited this is a genius. Chicken sandwiches was one of the best I've had in the DMV. The service was fantastic. She informed me on the specials and how the coffee doughnut was made.“
“We were pleasantly surprised with this place - good food, great drinks, wonderful service - what’s not to like! The food came out fast (in a very full restaurant on a Friday night, mind you!) and it was good. Unlike some other Mexican restaurants we’ve been to, the house margarita in this place is a very good one, not watered down and had a good bit of tequila in it - so if you want to relax with family or friends after work one night, this is the place to be, we certainly enjoyed it!“
“I had the kimchi burrito and it was absolutely genius and delicious. Kimchi fried rice in a burrito essentially and it was amazing. The business is Korean owned which always makes me happy. Both of the owners were incredibly sweet and kind. Basically, go give them your business. You'll be happy you went.“
“What an absolute delicious pizza I ordered! I went to participate in a PTA night for work and picked up Pizza Pie Me for dinner. I ordered the Buffalo & bbq chicken pizza and it was absolutely delicious. Service was great! I called before leaving work and it was ready in 15 minutes!“
“Went here for lunch because I work nearby and it was a great choice! Even though it's a little pricey (because of location), I got the mac and cheese grilled sandwich (almost like a grilled cheese sandwich) and I was full! It was only $10 (not including tax and tip) and it's a great lunch choice. The restaurant was empty inside but it looks like a great place to go after work hours. There were a couple of people at the bar relaxing but it was dead, otherwise. The bartender was too nice and funny. We were doing an inside joke and she was playing along. Overall, great experience. I would love to go there after work hours and eat while watching a sports game.“
“No lie this is some good pie.I was looking for a place to hang out as I wait for traffic to die down and I found Andy’s pizza. I sat at the bar and ordered a slice of carnivore, and a slice of sausage and pepper. They came out quick and hot. The crust is thin and slightly crispy. After I finished the main part of the pie, I added Mikes hot honey to the crust for a sweet and spicy finish. I will recommend Andy’s Pizza to anyone. My only regret is I didn’t take any pictures.“
