Great experience here at Fords! They have so many delicious appetizers it’s hard to not try em all. Had to settle for oyster shooters this time around. They have a great deal for a pick 4 seafood platter that could satisfy even the hungriest of fishermen. On top of great food, the service our group received from Vic and Maddie was outstanding! They were fast, attentive, and a great time! Will for sure be back for more fried sea creatures.

Ford's fish shack was great on Father's Day 2026! Joe was GM and did a great job helping me with reservations. Sofia our waitress was great in telling us all the great menu items. I had the crab legs , bill got the ribs and tail and they were both great. My sis had the rockfish special and she cleaned the plate. That never happens lol. Great place we will be back soon !

Ford’s Fish Shack was absolutely worth the drive! We drove an hour and a half specifically to try their fish and chips, and it did not disappoint. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. We ordered the fish and chips, shrimp tacos, fish tacos, hush puppies, and mixed berry shortcake. Every single thing was amazing, from the crispy fish to the dessert. Our waiter Victor was fantastic. He was friendly, attentive, helpful, and made sure we had a great experience from start to finish. If you’re looking for fresh seafood, great fish and chips, delicious food, and excellent service, Ford’s Fish Shack needs to be on your list. We will definitely be back!

finally made it to Ford’s Fish Shack, and I have to say, the recommendations were spot on. We went on a Saturday night and it wasn’t crowded at all; we had a reservation, but it didn't look like we actually needed one. Our server, Sofia, was great. She was super attentive, always checked in on us, and gave us some really solid tips for our appetizers and entrees. We started with a dozen oysters from three different locations. I’m no expert, but I really enjoyed them—they tasted just like the beach! My wife ordered the Maine seafood basket, and the seafood was delicious and perfectly crunchy. I’m definitely getting that next time. I went with three lobster tails (one fried, two grilled), and they were honestly some of the best I’ve ever had. That butter sauce is amazing. I’m already looking forward to going back. I can’t believe it took me this long to finally try it!

We ate here for Mother's Day, yesterday. We tried a bunch of different types of oysters and the lobster roll (Connecticut style- warm with butter). The food and service were excellent. My kids liked the chicken tenders and fries on the kids menu, which had a lot of great options to choose from. We enjoyed sitting on the outdoor patio as well. Plenty of parking in the front of the restaurant too. We'll be back again for sure!

Came here for my amazing and beautiful girlfriend’s birthday (she’s real, just goes to a different school) so I had high expectations to make this a special evening. To start us off with amazing service, the homie Preston came in with a big ol smile and made me forget my past traumas. He was real, genuine, made great recommendations. Steered us in the direction of bacon wrapped shrimp which was an amazing appetizer! Other food was good too. I had the Parmesan crusted chicken which was amazing! My totally real girlfriend was trying to steal my plate it was so good. Her risotto was delicious too! Wish we stayed to try more dessert, but Preston did hook us up with the crème brûlée for the birthday dinner. Thanks homie. Will definitely be back to this location!!

I had such a heartwarming lunch experience at Cooper’s Hawk Winery! After a lovely wine tasting with the super friendly and knowledgeable Nick (who helped us pick the perfect champagne to enjoy with our meal), our server Sydney took such good care of us. She was bright, attentive, and handled my custom pasta modification without missing a beat. Then Chef Kaveh surprised us by coming out to the table. What a kind, creative soul! We ended up chatting like old friends—he and I are both identical twins, and we laughed when we learned Sydney is one too. He took the time to collaborate with me on my entrée, and the final dish was fantastic. He even returned later with that wonderful smile to see how it turned out. The friendliness didn’t stop there. Tasting room host Mike (who could easily play a Viking warrior on any TV show—tall, strong, and incredibly welcoming) was fantastic from the start. Manager Kyle also stopped by to make sure everything was perfect. It was one of those rare lunches filled with genuine warmth, laughter, and people who truly go above and beyond. We left smiling big, with wine in hand, already planning our next visit. If you’re looking for a relaxed, feel-good lunch with excellent service and food, Cooper’s Hawk is a must-try!

I don’t come here enough: food from scratch, excellent service, spotless space. My server Anjali was on top of everything without hovering. The Tuna tostada appetizer was delicious. And to top it off Chef Kaveh went off menu for me and made me a prime rib warmed in the short rib jus. It was a flawless experience start to finish.

Thank you Joy for your amazing service, recommendations and your beautiful energy throughout the whole night. You made us feel very special and that meant so much to us. We hope to have you every single time we dine here. Your name perfectly fits you for sure. The food and wine was great as always and a special thank you to Lesley at the wine tasting for her great service and beautiful energy as well! We can’t wait to be back!

I walked in and was greeted as soon as I entered. Had amazing, prompt service by Marion, Chris and Cayley. I appreciated their knowledge of the wine and the time they took to answer my questions about the wine. I did end up joining the wine club because of the service I received from them. Also appreciation to the GM Leo who took the time to stop by and say hi, pour us a tasting and listened to our rave reviews of how well we were treated.

I’ve been to the Woodbridge location and had high hopes for Loudoun. However didn’t love it. Prices are on the high side for quality of food.. also paid $6.50 for fries, this is what ya get (pic) A kids side of fries. Inside felt very dark and uncomfortable.

Had an awesome experience at Bar Louie Ashburn! The atmosphere was fun, the drinks were great, and the service really stood out. Jamie took amazing care of us all night she was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out quickly even though it was busy. She has such a positive attitude and genuinely made our night more enjoyable. If you’re stopping by, definitely ask for Jamie. We’ll absolutely be back!Had an awesome experience at Bar Louie Ashburn!

I haven’t been to Bar Louie in YEARS, so i go, and Sam was the reason why i will be making this my go to spot again. He is so sweet, kind, attentive and very detail oriented with every person he speaks to. He reassured me if i had any questions, to notify him and he made my experience with my friends fun, comforting but also lively wirh his big, wild hair and his bright personality. Please ask for Sam if you want service that is top notch!

I had a great experience at Bar Louie. The food was excellent, and everything came out fresh and full of flavor. The cheesesteak was honestly perfect. the bread, the seasoning, and the balance of ingredients all came together really well. The grilled chicken clubs were also amazing, with great flavor and a satisfying portion. The quality of the food and the overall experience made it a place I’d definitely come back to.

Bar Louie offers a decent selection of food and drinks, but overall, it feels quite average. The menu has a variety of options, but none really stand out in terms of flavor or originality. The drinks are typical of a local bar — well-made but not particularly memorable. It's a good spot for a casual night out if you're not looking for anything special, but don't expect anything extraordinary.

The food was honestly great. We got fajitas and wowww!! Ate them all up and was left with a full and satisfied stomach. The restaurant also looks great and has a nice vibe. Definitely could come back there sometime!

We stopped in for happy hour; wasn’t too impressed with the happy hour (food wise) since all they had to offer was guacamole so we sat at a table. The service could’ve been better, but the chips and salsa were amazing but I have to say I’m not really sure what’s up with the ramekins (see picture) on the ground that stayed there through the whole entire time during our visit. Manager, servers all saw the ramekins but just left them there, not sure why. LOL Rumor has it they’re still lying on the ground waiting to be picked up. LOL

I was transported by the discovery of a genuine Mexican sanctuary the fajitas sizzled with a symphony of flavor, both beef and chicken, a culinary marvel. The customer service soared to excellence, a beacon of attentiveness. Yet, a discordant note intruded bachata played where vibrant Mexican melodies should reign, and the ambiance dimmed so profoundly that every bite was shrouded in shadow. Parking, elusive as a dream, compounded the challenge. Still, despite these spectral flaws, I bestow a solid four

Since the moment we got there the staff was very friendly and nice. Sandra our waitress was a cherry on the top of our whole experience. The food was delicious but the whole environment made everything better. I never had a chicken that tender before, literally melted in my mouth. I’ll be back a 1000 if I can.

The happy hour has a great value but the bartenders have a habit of not offering it when you go in (it’s on a separate menu). The last several times that I’ve gone I had to ask for it and wondered if it would have offered at all. The discount that they offer during M-F from 3pm to 6pm is significant, and one of the main reasons I’ve been going, but having to ask for it specifically, each time gives an unfavorable impression. Aside from that, the atmosphere is great; it’s beautifully decorated, and the food is very good. I’d recommend it, but just know what to ask for

The place was completely empty when we went, but the staff was still super friendly and fast. One server even checked on us while heading out for his lunch break, which was awesome customer service. The Tom Kha Gai broth was excellent, though the chicken was just okay, and the chicken dumplings were standard. But the Drunken Noodles were very good (highly recommend), and the Thai chicken with cashew nuts was excellent—the flavor and spice level were spot on. Overall, good food, great service, and a nice vibe. Definitely recommend checking it out, just watch out for the spice levels because they can catch you off guard.

Parking: Limited street parking available. (One hour), but there is public parking 3min walk away. Food: The food was very good. We had the curry puff chicken and the Deep fried pork Belly. The curry puff was slightly dry but he curry the came with made up. The Deep fired pork belly was glorious.👌🏿. We had hangover noodles and the seafood volcano. I especially liked the Avocado Tum salad, which had a nice chilli kick. For desert we had the Mango sticky rice. It was a bit too sweet tho. Service: Service was excellent. Very friendly waiters.Tables we neat, clean cutlery and glasses. Atmosphere: The decor and atmosphere is very similar to other high end thai restaurants. Vibrant , active, nice bar. Great food. Recommend.

Decent thai restaurant in one louden. My family dined here on Saturday dinner. We did not have a reservation but were seated right away. The server constantly checked on pur cups to refill water. The restaurant feels modern and the ceiling was decorated with artificial cherry blossom. Modern and elegant vibe. We tried chicken satay, pad thai, and crabmeat fried rice. Chicken Satay was good; however, it felt unreasonably priced. 4 skewers for $16. Pad thai was a little bit too salty. Crabmeat fried rice didn’t feel like a fried rice. Rice was moisture and soft but bland; however, it brought synergy with salty pad thai. They were a perfect combo to enjoy together. Overall, decent dining experience in one louden but not worth a trip to just eat here. I can certainly find better thai places in fairfax county.

This was our first time here and we were so glad to find a great Thai restaurant – we love Thai food and the food was excellent. The waiter and chef were happy to adjust the recipes to make them vegan and they have seitan which is a game changer among Thai restaurants. Note though that the amount of food you get for the costs is a bit out of proportion.

This is actually one of the best restaurants where I’ve eaten the most delicious food! Definitely one of my all time favorites!!! All dishes had so much flavor and a perfect spice level. Not too spicy where it hurts and noticeable enough to say it’s spicy. All the drinks looked delicious and the lychee Thai tea was very good. The dessert looked great on the menu and tasted solid but not much more to say. The Duck Lychee Curry did not have as much meat as the chicken curry did, so if I were to come back again I’d definitely get the yellow chicken curry. That dish was soooo yummy! My partner and I could have finished the entire main dishes it was that good, but saved for dessert. Definitely coming back here to try the other dishes!!!

During the late afternoon time, it just seems very dark inside this restaurant. And the seats are quite worn and taped over where they have been severely used. The staff was very friendly and helpful when I asked for a couple of suggestions for the items I was looking at for my meal. He confirmed one of the items and told me that the the flour tacos were made in house and that sealed the deal. There was a nice presentation to the food and everything was hot and delicious. They have very flavorful tacos. It was a nice experience, but it was just not great. The food was very good and I highly recommend the chicken tacos with the homemade flour tortillas.

We went there last night to celebrate an occasion. Arrived early, happy hour timeframe. Beautiful place. The food was amazing. We ordered the trio dip and ceviche to start. Outstanding. Their chips and salsa are great. Their tortillas are freshly made. We also had steak fajitas, a taco salad, and a burrito for our main courses. So much food, generous portions! Let's talk about their margaritas. They're really, really good and appropriately strong (meaning not watered down). They even garnished them with an infused frozen lemon. Delicious. Absolutely recommend. When we were leaving, the place had really filled up. Although it's huge, there are probably some nights where you'll need a reservation. Great experience. I can't remember our waiter's name, but he was OUTSTANDING and friendly – he made us feel so welcome. We were a three-top in the bar by the window on Thursday, Oct. 16, 2025. Really nice guy – he was also a bartender and they have a full, beautiful bar. We'll be back.

We had a really enjoyable meal here! The fajitas were sizzling, full of flavor, and definitely one of the best things we ordered. The drinks were refreshing and reasonably priced, which made the experience even better. Every dish we tried was delicious and well prepared. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Great food, fair prices, and a welcoming atmosphere make this a place I'll happily return to again.

Parrandos Ashburn: Thanks to Manager Omar for the wonderful accommodation despite the reservation error. Our family of 16 was celebrating my parents’ 48th anniversary (and a few birthday celebrations. Somehow the reservation I made was not recorded appropriately. He quickly put together several tables for our family. Thanks to his quick thinking and flexibility, we had a great night. Our server Erick was attentive and very friendly. Food was great and the staff even sang happy birthday and happy anniversary!

Omg! I visited this place after 5 year with my husband and loved the pricing and services 🩵🩵 Food was excellent and Definitely gonna go again!

Had a great meal at Ted's Bulletin in One Loudoun! We came to try their seasonal lobster menu, and it was amazing. The lobster was fresh, flavorful, and they were very generous with the portions, there were big chunks of lobster in every bite. We also ordered the Caesar wrap, and it was one of our favorite dishes. It was fresh, well-seasoned, and really filling. We also appreciate that they offer halal-friendly options, which makes it an easy spot to recommend to friends and family. The restaurant has a really welcoming atmosphere that's perfect for anything from a casual lunch to a business meeting or date night. Before we left, we checked out their in-house pastry and coffee bar, which is such a nice addition if you're looking for dessert or a coffee after your meal. Overall, everything from the food to the service was excellent. We'll definitely be coming back to try more of the seasonal menu!

Love the food here, always prepared fresh from scratch. The lobster bisque was awesome. The Chicken Diane was lucious, moist chicken breast smothered in creamy pan gravy with mushrooms and grape tomatoes and hints of citrus acidity accompanied with smooth mashed potatoes and blanched broccoli served on a large plate a super filling.

Just took a day out with the kids to visit the Loudoun One area and passed by the outdoor seating here. The vibe was pleasant, we were hungry, so we checked it out. Ted's Bulletin feels fancy but comfortably homey at the same time. Seating was a bit tight, but that's the closest I have for a complaint of any kind. The place was busy even in the middle of the week, but we were seated inside without a wait. The wait staff was incredibly friendly, pleasant, and informative about menu questions. One appetizer really stood out to me and that was the spinach and artichoke dip. It was the one and only time I have had actual artichokes in this type dip – everywhere else it is literally one piece. This was packed with artichokes, you can see and taste the spinach, and the sauce isn't oily or gooey. It was perfection for an appetizer. The mozzarella appetizer was crisp exterior, soft cheese interior, and just the right temperature to dig in immediately- again not greasy or oily. After the appetizers we enjoyed a combination of wonderful entrees from sandwich, to burger, salad (which was large, fresh, and bountiful!), and finished with very generously sized desserts, which were shareable. We will visit here again when in the NOVA area again.

This was my first time at this location but have been to the NOMA location a few times. It was such a perfect spring evening so we definitely wanted to eat outside. We started with an order of cornbread with cinnamon butter. The cinnamon butter was sinfully good! I chose the chicken piccata pasta. I’m not one for a thick creamy sauce but this was lighter with the white wine and lemon. Dave love’s breakfast for dinner so he chose the Big Mark and quite enjoyed every bite of it. The hash browns looked so crispy and yummy! Happily for me, it came with a Ted’s tart and he picked my choice, the seasonal Cherry Blossom. Not only was it beautiful with petals on top it was tasty too!!! Services was very good also.

Ive been here several times and every time they provide excellent service, top quality food, and a wonderful atmosphere. I love their breakfast foods. Everything is made in house and the food certainly reflects it. Whether you order the breakfast burrito, hash browns, tots, eggs, steaks, tarts, biscuits and gravy (honestly anything on the breakfast menu since thats what I mainly get), you will not be disappointed. Im not a big fan of paying exorbitant prices for "fancy" brunch foods that dont fill you up. But here they do it right, and its reasonably priced. Id go here for their breakfast any day, just make sure you make a reservation in advance or come super early.

I’ve been enjoying Anita’s breakfast burritos for many many years… it’s a Northern VA staple!! While near this location one morning I stopped in for their original, signature breakfast burrito with extra red sauce inside. Service was quick, as I ordered via the kiosk when I went in. They were a little bust, as there were three others waiting for food ahead of me and a few more that walked in after I came in. I waited maybe less than 5 minutes for my food to be made. Took it back to my hotel and enjoyed that burrito!! They do a nice job with them… the balance of flavors and the freshness – it was all great! This place gets overly judged, which is unfortunate for places that have been around, locally for so many years (even tho this is new location for the chain)… Overall, it’s really good and I’m always happy when I have their breakfast burritos!

I love this place and all other Anita's restaurants. To me they have the best take out menus in the DMV. I love the El Zorro's. A burrito with either chicken ground beef or chorizo. Really great price. Really great 👍 Go here, often‼️

Really enjoyed my visit! The food was delicious, and my cheese enchilada plate was a great choice. The quesadillas and enchiladas were flavorful and well prepared. I was also impressed by how clean the restaurant was and how quickly the food arrived. The service was smooth, and the overall experience was very enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back in the near future and would recommend this place.

I stopped in around 2:00 p.m. on a Sunday and ordered the Burrito Loco. The food was genuinely good — fresh, well‑seasoned, and put together with care. The portion was solid without feeling heavy, and everything tasted like it was made to order rather than rushed. The restaurant itself is a fine establishment: clean, comfortable, and welcoming. What really stood out, though, was the service. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. It’s the kind of place where you feel taken care of even during a steady weekend crowd. Overall, a great experience and a spot I’d happily return to. Highly recommend the Burrito Loco if you’re stopping by.

The breakfast burritos are absolutely delicious and one of the main reasons I keep coming back. The food has always been fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. However, there is one issue that has continued to bother me. Every time I visit, the woman working at the pickup counter is extremely unfriendly. She never greets me, and even when I say "thank you," I often receive no response at all. This has happened at least three or four times. At first, I thought I might be overthinking it. As an Asian customer, I wondered if I was just being too sensitive. But after several visits, I started paying closer attention. I noticed that the white customers behind me were greeted warmly with a smile and a friendly "good morning," while I received no greeting or acknowledgment whatsoever. Because I wasn’t sure, I continued visiting and observing. Unfortunately, it increasingly felt as though certain customers were treated much more warmly than others. I sincerely hope this is not intentional, but the difference in treatment was noticeable enough that I felt compelled to mention it. The food is excellent, but customer service should be consistent and respectful for everyone. I hope management takes this feedback seriously.

Had a group dinner w/ friends. First time coming. Daniel was our server & amazing handling the big party. The food was good. The wings were so good I ordered them twice and didn’t even order tacos LOL A good time was had by all.

We absolutely love this place! My husband and I come here every other month for a little date night, and it’s one of our favorite restaurants. The food is always amazing, everything is fresh and full of flavor, and we’ve never had a bad experience. The customer service is outstanding too. Everyone is so friendly, attentive, and makes us feel welcome every time we visit. If you’re looking for a great restaurant with delicious food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere for a date night or a family meal, I highly recommend this place. We’ll definitely keep coming back!

I came here on a Saturday. Everything was great from the food to the service. My waitress/Bartender Mirna did an excellent job. They have a drink called Liquid Cocaine. Very good. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. I got queso dip, al pastor tacos, pacifico on draft and a fried ice cream. The total bill was only $50 plus tax. If I'm ever in the area again I would definitely come back.

Fantastic food and grand sized dishes! I love everything on the menu.

Excellent food and drinks! Great spot to get a bite to eat and drink before going to a movie. The chips and salsa are good enough on their own, and you don't even have to pay for them. The tacos are equally delicious and fresh. Service was great and attentive. Margaritas were excellent as well.

First time at any Chipotle in about 2 years. I guess now I remember why I stopped going. Overpriced at $15 for a bowl with chips. Chips were extremely stale, chewy rather than crunchy. A few elements of my order were also incorrect. This is still the highest rated Chipotle in the area, which makes me wonder how much worse the others might be 😬 It's sad because Chipotle used to be so good when they first started 🥲

They have bugs in their food. I ordered food today and it arrived with a bug in it free of charge. I returned it to the restaurant and the manager wasn't even surprised at all. He took the bug out and asked if I wanted it to be remade…he put it in the fridge after and kept it there.

Pretty disappointed honestly I Got take out tonight from this chipotle, they robbed me one of my sides but charged me full price for the meal. I won’t be ordering online anymore. I wouldn’t order online from this place. In person is not bad but this is annoying.

Nothing better than trying to pick up a catering order on Apr 8, 2026, around 11am and the cashier couldn't be bothered to even acknowledge me standing there. Person that replies for Chipotle, save the canned reply… take the complaint to the store manager and actually address the issue.

I recently visited the Chipotle location at this location and had an extremely disappointing experience. The issues began as soon as I walked in the door. First, the line was incredibly long, and it moved at a snail’s pace. It seemed like the staff were either untrained or completely uninterested in providing quick service. I understand that sometimes there are rushes, but this felt more like a lack of organization and efficiency. When I finally got to order, the staff were inattentive and rude. They barely listened to my order, and I had to repeat myself several times. Even then, they still got my order wrong. The ingredients looked unappetizing, and some of the containers were nearly empty, yet no one seemed to be refilling them. The food itself was a disaster. My burrito bowl was missing key ingredients, and what was there was either overcooked or undercooked. The rice was hard and crunchy, the beans were cold, and the meat was dry and flavorless. The portions were also much smaller than what I’m used to at other Chipotle locations. To top it off, the restaurant was dirty. Tables were not being cleaned, the floor was littered with trash, and the bathrooms were in terrible condition. It’s clear that cleanliness is not a priority at this location. Overall, my experience at this Chipotle was incredibly disappointing. I will not be returning to this location and will think twice before visiting any Chipotle in the future. I hope management takes steps to address these issues so that future customers do not have to endure the same poor experience.
