This restaurant is massive & somehow makes me think of a large warehouse in Chicago. Beautifully laid out, large comfortable booths, excellent atmosphere, service & menu choices. Food was the best I've eaten in years! The 3 of us had different choices, all of which were excellent & so good I rated it the best meal of the trip by... More

Omg this place is delicious! The warm buns with honey they give you to start is to die for! The crab cakes are great! The mixed salad was awesome. I have never been here and not loved my meal. Definitely call ahead because this place is always packed especially Fri-Sun.

Good restaurant but NOT the place to go if your dining party is more than 4 people. We've been going to Mike's since it opened years ago. Last week I called ahead (in the morning) because our family wanted to celebrate that evening at Mike's. We were a party of 9; they have 1 table and two areas where tables... More

Mike's is a valuable addition to the Washington DC area. The crab cakes were to die for. The restaurant was noisy today because of graduation season. The hostess did not offer us the best seat available until we prodded her. Two of us had hearing problems and we should not have needed to prod. However, Mike's always has great food... More

As we celebrated a 40th birthday at Mike's American Grill; the staff made the dining experience a good one. Not only did Katie the manager work with me to ensure we were able to sit together, but she had a personality to make me believe that she was doing all she could to accommodate us. Drew our server was attentive... More

So it's my mom's 81st birthday and she lives in the Springfield, VA area. She chose where she wanted to go for her birthday dinner. Our party: in addition to my mom, and my two sisters and nephew who are locals, my sister and I flew in from out of town. I confess, I didn't know anything about this restaurant,... More

Mike's is a deservedly popular place for many folks in Springfiekd, Burke, and Annandale , Virginia. Travelers to the area love it and there are lots who return when in the vicinity. It seats hundreds on two huge floors, but the parking is very limited. Don't park in the next lot over or you will likely be towed. But across... More

We stopped here on our way through town. It is a really cute place. I loved the atmosphere. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We all had salads. Two of us thought the dressings were very garlicky. The salmon salad was wonderful. Huge piece of fish grilled to order. Really good! Overall, we enjoyed the meal.

We went to Mike's American Grill when my uncle was in town. As an appetizer we had the calamari, which was excellent. We really enjoyed the Drunken Ribeye. It was cooked perfectly, was almost fork tender, and had an amazing taste. We will absolutely be going back!

Returned to this restaurant for the third time with friends to celebrate a birthday. The service was very attentive and efficient. The ambiance is pretty good considering that the restaurant is cavernous; nice leather banquettes and good lighting. The food was particularly good. I had a crabcake sandwich; it was large and very tasty; it was served with two sides... More
