I love grabbing lunch at Sweetleaf when I'm working in the McLean office. The restaurant has a cute…read morebeachy vibe, and the outdoor seating is perfect on a nice day. The only downside is the limited parking, which can be a bit inconvenient. (The restaurant is also located on a one-way street so that sucks a bit)! The staff is always friendly and welcoming. My favorite dishes are the Steak Chimichurri and the Big Fin Salad. The steak can be a little tough at times, but the chimichurri and corn make it delicious. The Big Fin Salad is another solid choice with grilled salmon and crispy parmesan crisps. Today I tried the Spicy Avocado Salad and customized it with basmati rice, cherry tomatoes, and avocado ranch. The avocado was perfectly ripe, and the tomatoes were super refreshing. However, the tortilla chips were a bit stale, and I wasn't a fan of the cilantro-lime vinaigrette. The avocado ranch definitely made the dish more enjoyable. I probably wouldn't order this salad again, but I'm still excited to try more items from their menu!!

I'm a big fan of Sweet Leaf, and this McLean location never disappoints! In my opinion, they offer…read moreeven better salad options than some of the bigger chains.

We started with a bottle of their featured red wine that was half price. Quite good! For appetizers we had Cesar salad and a baked eggplant dish, both very tasty!

We'll be back soon..

I am disappointed that I have to write this review but I hope that the owners/management take note…read more We used to occasionally eat at this neighborhood Italian restaurant. It smelled like Italy when you stepped in and it also used to have a small area that sold Italian small food goods. After new management, much is gone. That food goods corner is gone. Attention to detail and charm seem gone as well. We've been here a couple times in the past year to give it a few more tries but now that things have settle, it has not improved. The dishes are mostly the same from the prior owner but prices have gone up and the dishes seem smaller and do not taste as good. High 20's/30'a prices for pasta dishes - one expects quality and fine dining. Not to be. Please try again.

One of the BEST First Watch locations I've ever visited!…read more As someone who enjoys trying different breakfast and brunch spots, I can honestly say this First Watch exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked through the door, we were welcomed with genuine smiles and outstanding hospitality. The staff made us feel like regulars, even though it was our first visit to this location. Friendly service like this is becoming harder to find, and they absolutely nailed it! Let's talk about the food... WOW! Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. I ordered the avocado toast with eggs, and every bite tasted like it had just come straight from the kitchen. The avocado was perfectly seasoned, the eggs were cooked exactly the way I wanted, and everything on the plate was fresh and delicious. Even the drinks were refreshing and picture-perfect! One thing that really stood out to me was how incredibly clean the restaurant was. The dining room, tables, and overall atmosphere were spotless, creating a welcoming environment where you instantly feel comfortable relaxing and enjoying your meal. Whether you're looking for a quick breakfast before work, a cozy lunch date, catching up with friends, or bringing the whole family together, this First Watch has plenty of room for everyone. The atmosphere is bright, comfortable, and inviting--the kind of place where you end up staying just a little longer over another cup of coffee. And here's my little warning... don't come here if you're in a rush to start a diet because the menu makes it nearly impossible to choose just one thing! I was already planning what I'm ordering on my next visit before I even finished my plate. This is easily one of the best First Watch locations I've been to, and I can't wait to come back. Great food, exceptional service, a spotless restaurant, and an atmosphere that makes you want to return again and again. Highly recommend stopping by whether it's for breakfast, brunch, lunch, date night, or a family outing. You won't be disappointed!

The place is worth it! I know you will make it your regular weekend, weekday breakfast, lunch or dinner place! It's a locally owned small business and I encouraged him to open another one! He doesn't know what he's going to get with this review, but he will get more customers - for sure! He doesn't need me promoting him or his business! The food and the customer service speaks for itself! I don't like to give five stars, but this place is freakin adorable, wonderful and all the things! You will not regret visiting this establishment! Their people are homey and can mix with any jive! Love Chloez!! You just gotta try this place in order to know what I'm talking about!!

Today, we played Russian roulette with family Sunday lunch time. That's how we came upon this…read morelittle family dinner. Our entire experience was great, nothing to truly complain about. The dinning area has a real hometown feel with conversation billowing from each table about individuals being regulars and discussing the last time they were here. The staff are primarily made up of teenagers who were all friendly and helpful. For food, we partook in a few things from the menu: - Chicken tenders (5) with fries - The American burger with fries - Western omelette with home fries - Avocado toast with home fries - Protein smoothie - French toast latte - Beignets (6 small) with all three sauces All the food was delicious and prepared just right. After reading the reviews, we decided to make a reservation. However, the hostess seemed frazzled and overwhelmed by something that did not pertain to us and the reservation appeared to not matter. The restaurant prefers you pay by cash or debit. If not, they attach a 3% processing fee. The only criticism I have is that the restaurant charges extra for anything not directly associated with your meal. For example, $3.50 for salsa, .50 per extra beignets sauce, .50 for bbq sauce, and $1.50 for fries with a burger. This is a small thing but can add up quick. Overall, this is a decent diner and one we will probably return to soon.
