My go-to brunch in Arlington now: $9-13, diverse menu, delicious and creative. The omelettes and eggs benedict are incredible, and OH MY, the brussels sprouts! Really top-notch drinks too.

If you are looking for Sunday brunch with just a hint of Alsace-Lorraine, then this is it. Great beer list and daytime cocktails. We ate at the bar, but the service was still attentive and friendly. While my dish could have used a bit more seasoning, it was quite good. Atmosphere is sophisticated but casual with brasserie tables and chairs;... More

Last Friday, we decided last minute to dine in Arlington and we were able to get reservations at Lyon Hall in Arlington. We are so thrilled that we did. The food was awesome. My wife had the pork schnitzel and I had the bratwurst. My wife said it was the best meal she had for a long time. The bratwurst... More

This is a great spot to try amazing Belgian beers. Excellent choices. Their mussels come with a choice of preparations. We tried the Alsatian & Hofbrau. Each was delicious with plenty of mussels in each pot. No sand, just deliciousness. You might also consider the doughnut appetizer as dessert. A tray of 4 different homemade warm tender doughnuts are amazing.... More

First time here. We were visiting our son who is a surgical resident nearby. Starting with the 4 donuts, they were amazing! Everything was good but the skate I had was great.

First let me say that our server, Rebecca, was outstanding. She was lovely, gracious and provided excellent service without being intrusive. Overall the food was good too but I had a couple of "misses." They had a nice wine list consisting of mostly French varietals and also an extensive beer list. We ordered the soft baked pretzels to start and... More

We've eaten here many times on our DC travels. I've always enjoyed my food and had great service. The last trip there, February 2013, we hosted a rehearsal dinner upstairs and I really can not say enough, how wonderful they were. We were a group of 30 and they really went above and beyond, the food and service were both... More

We have eaten many times at this historic site in Clarendon. Mark Fedorchak is the consummate restauranteur. On Sundays he is ever-present at the brunch making sure all is perfect, but in a "feel good" and "you are important" way. The meats are delicious and the eggs superb. The donuts, well you must try them to understand. Great staff completes... More

The food is delicious, especially the smoked salmon! The service was very good. We are in our 60's so really did not enjoy the music which was pretty loud. In the winter months when you cannot sit outside I definitely recommend reservations.
