“I've eaten here a couple of times years ago and wasn't too impressed. Fast forward to this past weekend, since the weather has been nice, I decided to make us reservations for brunch and what a great decision. We shared delicious avocado toast with a hefty serving of smoked salmon. I tried something different with the breakfast burrito. Oh goodness, this thing is big enough to feed a family of four and was perfectly made. Filled with scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, peppers, topped with pico, cheese, and avocado, served with a side of cilantro dressing. This was not a typical burrito, it was lightly grilled and was easily cut with a knife and eaten with a fork. My friend went with the traditional breakfast. We both had a cocktail with brunch and both were made perfectly. Food was amazing! Service was outstanding! Outside atmosphere was picturesque with potential. Although the patio can use an update with canoes and such slightly distracting from the waterfront view, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Madigan's Waterfront.“

“Sister and husband down with rehab and covid...ordered a meal delivered to them. Enough food for two meals, even the cheesecake pieces were large enough for 2 meals. More than pleased. I live in Oklahoma, appreciate being able to do this from afar“

“Love this place! I come in all the time and get the fried rice, but the curry and pad thai are also excellent.Vegetarian options: Not every dish on the menu can be served without meat, but many can! Tofu is an option for lots of the dishes that would normally have meat, and many of the curries don't have meat either.“

“I recently stumbled upon Lassan and ordered takeout. The food was delicious. I ordered the masala nachos, masala fries, palak chaat, chicken tikka masala, chicken vindaloo, veggie biryani, masaledar aloo gobi and chana masala. My family’s favorites were the chicken tikka masala and the chicken vindaloo although I kind of feel like we were mistakenly given butter chicken instead of tikka masala just based on what I’ve gotten at other Indian restaurants since it was my first time at this restaurant.I ordered a medium spice level for our order but some items like the biryani were extra spicy. My family loves spicy food so we loved it but fair warning to those with lower spice tolerances.Takeout orders need to be packaged better since my masala nachos and masala fries were very soggy even though I arrived to pick up my order right as it came out. My palak chaat was also soggy, not crispy at all. The flavors were delicious so my family and I agreed these items will only be ordered when we dine in.“

“This place was perfect. From seating to service. We have no complaints. There was no wait for seating. They were rather busy. For the first time there we were not disappointed with anything. The selection was full of great options to choose from. I went with the salmon, my wife had the Bolognese both were delicious. The place has a bar with a very nice selection. The seating is very spacious. With very clean restrooms which is always a plus. We have found our new go-to. Definitely will be returning. Thanks, Courtney for a very hospitable experience.“

“MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO THE ENTIRE STAFF AT MAGGIANO’s, SPRINGFIELD, VA! There are not enough word in the dictionary to describe my experience in Maggiano’s! From the time I make reservations through walking through the front door of the restaurant, the service, the managers, the chef, the food, to serving the BEST ITALIAN CUISINE SINCE ITALY, and cleanliness in the restrooms. Look, I live in Old Town Alexandria, VA, where there are some of the best Italian restaurants on the East Coast but those restaurants do not compare to my Maggiano’s. I seriously have to drive out of my way, Springfield, to get the Best Italian on the East Coast. It’s worth every second. The cuisine inside this Maggiano’s tastes exactly like my Italian grandparent’s cooked it. I frequent this restaurant at least once or twice a week. Thank you Mo, (manager), Jessie (server), and the rest of the staff at my Maggiano’s! Dana Neese, 12-23-2023.“

“Hidden gem in Springfield. Very clean and the wait staff was very attentive. We had the cheese steak, wings and Chicken Marsala and it was all very tasty and good. The live music by Diamond Alley was very fun. A good time was had by all!“

“Words cannot express how happy we are that we discovered this hidden gem when we were simply looking on impulse for an Indian restaurant after a long day. The name seemed familiar from one we had eaten at in Falls Church that was a favorite of ours. And we were pleasantly surprised that they are owned by the same people. The staff here were just as courteous, helpful and efficient making sure our drinks stay full, the plates were cleared away and coming to check on how everything was. The whole experience from the presentation of the food, the portions, the quality of the ingredients, how well it was seasoned and cooked and the pricing for what you get which is a lot was right on mark in every way. We could taste the effort and love that goes into their cooking and how much they take pride in what they do. I think the food is just a bit better seasoned than their other location too. Everything tasted amazing and had our taste buds singing. We could not have asked for a better experience both times we were there for lunch and dinner and we feel most welcomed when we are there. They are wonderful proof that good food traverses boundaries and cultures amd brings people together as also witnessed by the other happy diners there of various ethnicities. Definitely on our list of places to go to and another local business we plan to support very often.Vegetarian options: I personally enjoyed the vegetable pakora, plain saag and chana masala. The only thing that could be better would be a mixed vegetarian option on their main menu either as a entree or appetizer so I could explore more vegetarian dishes before committing to just one.Dietary restrictions: I enjoyed the facts that they were gluten free, nut free and dairy free options as there are times I'm unable to consume these if I'm having digestive issues.Parking: There are quite a few food places as well as a smaller Walmart so parking can be a little challenging though we had no problems finding spots.“

“went in to celebrate my 2 year anniversary with my spouse. i knew it would be expensive. but this was SO WORTH IT.the atmosphere was excellent. the waiter was great. and the food is incredible. Ive never had venison like I did there.the duck fat fried potatoes were superb. we're planning on coming back for the duck“

“Nice out of the way place across from the hotel at Silverbrook and Lorton Road. There is a full bar and maybe 10 tables. Service was excellent and food came to the table fresh and hot. We had chips salsa and modelo negro. Small but cute that I will try again.“

“I had a fried whole fish here. It was amazing. Friendly and attentive staff. The owner came out and checked on us multiple times. They also have a very healthy vegan platter along with spaghetti options, well flavored and fulfilling. Ambience was also great. Sporty bar vibe with beautiful Ethiopian traditional coffee setup. I’ll definitely go back.“

“Jocelyn was a wonderful server. So friendly. Attentive but not rushed at all. Made the evening so relaxing. The host who seated us was also so kind and friendly. Made us feel special! The food was delicious. I got the chicken tacos (must ask for the white jalapeño sauce on the side, not spicy, tastes like ranch). My husband got the Elvis platter. Huge portions. Delicious!!“

“Bar inside of the food hall. They have cheap prices and great options. The bartenders tend to have a heavy hand. Lots of locals come to the food hall to try various food options. The bar is the first thing you see when you walk into the food hall. So the bar is the perfect spot for people watching and chit chat after eating from the vendors is the food hall. Definitely worth checking out as $20 goes a long way at this bar.“

“Food is awesome. Appetizers is fairly large, we had cheese curds and the pretzel, and delicious. Following that up main meal was cheese burger w/ onion rings and korean BBQ hoagie w/ truffle fries. Hoagie was outlandishly good. Onions rings and truffle fries were great. Burger was good but wasn't cooked to asked doneness, minor grievance. Our server was someone in training and she did fine. Came and checked in on us, had recommendations, etc. I think only real downside is the price as it is a tad pricey. The meal with 2 beers before tip was just under $80. Speaking of beer though, one heck of a selection. My only other downside was that the music was a touch loud as well I thought but really it was a place I'd go back to again.“

“The service was excellent from the moment we walked in the door. Food and drinks was very good! We shared the coconut shrimp and I had the jerk shrimp pineapple bowl that I requested extra spicy and it was so good! My daughter enjoyed her jerk chicken pineapple bowl. And we shared the Pineapple empanada which was delicious. Generous portions so we can enjoy the rest for lunch! Fun atmosphere with island music.“

“The pupusas and tacos are a must. They're probably some of the better tacos you can get around the Landmark area. I did order their Birria Fries, and I had mixed feelings. The meet and toppings themselves were delicious; however, the fries were soggy and actually cold. I would definitely have enjoyed it way more if it was hot and crispy.I've also had the Birria tacos and Birria ramen during another visit. I'd definitely recommend them!“

“This review is exclusively for La Fiamma's Sunday buffet, which is very good. We've been here for the buffet four times now. Though La Fiamma's buffet offering is smaller than most other buffets, its quality is head and shoulders above the rest. The atmosphere in the restaurant is relaxed. Today, service was outstanding with staffers checking frequently to see if we had everything we needed. The buffet includes an omelet bar, salads, typical breakfast items, entrees and a very decent array of seafood options. The dessert table is great with several different cakes as well as fresh fruit. The one thing I would change would be to have vanilla ice cream at the dessert table, not chocolate ice cream which is what was available today. Chocolate ice cream doesn't really go with carrot or devil's food cake. Speaking of the devil's food cake, it is flawless! Still, this our go-to option for Sunday brunch.“
