Great way to wait for your flight - calm ambience, delicious food, and feels like a treat! Recommend making a reservation ahead of time as they can get busy! Really enjoyed their mocktail - Flamingo Shuttle Guava, Vanilla, Citrus, Club soda! Food wise, everything we had was good. My personal favorite was the avocado toast! read more

Great new addition to DCA! For years there hasn't been lounge access and I'm happy Capital One has finally created a space for its consumers. You may only use this space for 3 hours prior to flight departure. Not for any arriving flights. Complimentary access for Capital One card owners. Entry fee for non card holders (maybe $90?). Wait times are long as they sometimes cannot keep up with demands and limited seating areas. Sign in at the desk and you'll get a text when they have space. I waited 45 minutes. The check in area feels cramped with two podiums and way too many checkin staff crowded at the front. Once you get a text, you have 10 minutes to arrive or you may have to sign up again. Once checked in, you have an assigned seat based on size of your party. So you won't have a choice on preferred seating section. Once seated, scan the QR code on the table where you may place an order for any menu items including drinks. They also have an area with quick item snacks like cheese & crackers, hummus, veggies, meats and you can obtain your dessert items here. They offer fancy teas from Art of Tea and coffee. Paper cups available if you want to take a drink to go on your way out. Soft drinks & water available in the mini fridge. I tried the vegetarian and vegan options. The lentil soup was good and filling. Three cheese grill cheese is good but a bit too much cheese making it heavy. Also tried a rice with tofu & avocado. This was okay. Needed a sauce or some added flavor. My guava mocktail was refreshing. Hummus & veggies were good. The soft serve with cocoa nibs & sea salt was good. Comes in a cute smiling cup. There are no to-go items or take away options. So plan on staying seated to dine. There is free WiFi, charging stations at your seat, and single restroom available. I hope they add more healthy options. *** Tip - if there is a long wait time and you can't get in, they have a small cafe of quick items for sale. With a Cap One credit card, all items are half off! I got the vegan chickpea salad and a Pressed juice for roughly $12? Good deal at the airport! Coffee, croissants, and some of the items from the lounge are also sold here. read more

Pros and cons on this update. Pros are still all food and drink based. They added additional items to their dinner menu, including tacos and steak and one or two veggie options which were great additions and awesome to expand the menu for more options. Dessert continues to be amazing, the added salt and chocolate sauce for the oat soft serve is perfect. They were even coming around doing caviar cones for people so that was cool. Downsides, I tried to sign up for the waitlist ahead of time but I wouldn't let me so had to wait to show up and get on the list which was a pain. Then they put me on the list despite there being multiple tables and individual seats open. I went up after a couple minutes and asked about it and they didn't really have an answer and let me take one of the many individual seats that were open. read more

Capital One Landing at DCA - Airport Lounges Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

IMO, the best lounge in the DMV. Mainly bc of the partnership with Jose Andres, resulting in high quality F&B. Complimentary access via Capital One VentureX. Menu via QR code. Order as much as you want straight from your phone. Doesn't get much easier. I used to prefer flying out of IAD, but this lounge is the main reason why I started leaning towards DCA. Looking forward to trying their (latest & greatest) LGA lounge in the near future, which is supposed to be even bigger & better. read more

Fantastic food, would say this spot is even better than the Dulles lounge which has been my favorite for the longest time. The chocolatey churro dessert thing was 10/10. We had an early flight so got mostly breakfast items and it lived up to the hype. Service was friendly and quick. Only knock is we had to wait like 5 mins to get in. read more

Capital One collaborated with José Andrés on the menu. Most of the food is great, and they are tapas so don't expect big portions. Items ordered on the QR code come at a timely matter. They also have food options that you can get at the counter. I've seen the lounge not too busy, and I've also seen it super busy with long lines. I've been there during their breakfast and lunch menus. Capital One allows one guest (compared to their other lounges that allow two guests) for free until February 2026. After that, there is a charge per guest. It is a "landing" so it is smaller than their lounges. read more

Loved the experience here. From QR codes menus, to table delivery and top notch tapas style food. Everything was delicious. The lattes were great and the ambiance was relaxing. read more

For my first capital one lounge type experience it was a good one. They had enough tables for their guests and attentive employees. They were prompt in their food service, so there was little wait time to get the ordered menu items, and thus, I did not feel rushed to enjoy my meal before it was time to catch my flight. The food options are great, even for vegetarians. The dessert options were a bit lacking and some fresh fruit would have been nice. Even so, the food was good and drink options were thoughtful. read more

The Capital One Landing never ever disappoints. In fact, I make it a point to always now book all of my domestic flights out of DCA in order to make flying more bearable. The before flight libations and mini Michelin type tapas are just what you need for a short and long haul flights to the other coast and anywhere in the continental US. Thank the lord, Capital One had the wherewithal to team up with Jose Andres Just one tip- make sure to reserve in advance your spot so that you can avail yourself of all of the fabulous food, otherwise you will have a long wait or GASP!! not be able to get in all read more

You will love the tapas here! A must try is the Caesar Salad tapas. It's topped with shredded cheese that feels like you're eating air... just try it Just about everything on the menu is awesome. Since the servings are small, you'll be able to try everything! For other main dishes and drinks, once assigned a seat/table there's a QR code for the menu and drinks. You put in your order and the bring it to your seat/table... very awesome! This is definitely a reason to go to the airport early. A very comfortable place to wait and relax. read more

A great open cafe for those with a Capital One Venture X card. Entry is free for those with the card, for all others it is $90. A great place with small plates. The menu is delicious. I enjoyed manchego cheese, baba ghanoush, small fry, chickpea salad and much more. You can order hot items via the QR code. The service was great once inside. It was very speedy. Where I had a small issue was that at one point there was an hour wait. Which is understandable. But there were what seemed to be many empty tables and there are a lot of employees here- they all seemed to be just hanging around. So I wondered why people couldn't just be seated? Maybe there is more to the story? Who knows. A great place to visit if you are short on time. Located by D Gates read more

I've been here a couple times now. If you're flying from DCA and not in T1 (manly SWA) then it's worth stopping here. It's more like a restaurant format than an enclosed lounge. There's a juice and water station on tap, a regular food line that they give you, and then self service coffee + pastries. The best part about this place is they seat you upon check in, it really helps with the overall flow - no 1-person parties taking a 4-top. At the table is a QR CODE to order more hearty items. There's an iberico ham and fries thing which slapped. Note that if you're in terminal 1 then you're SOL. read more

Stopped by the Capital One Landing at DCA because our flight was delayed. At the counter, we were told they would only be open for another 30 minutes and we appreciated the clear communication. There were plenty of outlets for each seating section. The hot food can be ordered via QR code at the table and came out pretty quickly. I enjoyed the Gambas al Aijillo - shrimp with tomato and bay leaves as well as the grilled cheese which were cooked to perfection. The shrimp was so delicious, I ordered a second. They have cocktails, mocktails, coffee, and tea. We didn't have enough time to enjoy the tapas section. One suggestion I have for the landing would be to add a screen with flight times inside the space since most lounges have that. My friend stepped out of the lounge to make sure we did not miss boarding because the app was not showing the live updates and we had no way to check inside the lounge. read more

I visited the store for the first time today. I ordered a cup of coffee, an OJ and a pastry. Great presentation, lovely store decor and wonderful coffee. The service provided was outstanding, they offered great breakfast choices, yogurt, snacks, and fresh pastries. I was wowed by the nice and attentive staff. Also pleasently surprised by the Capital One card holder discount and the phenomenal coffee flavor. Definitely recommended!!! read more

DCA has one of the best lounges I've visited and is an easy five star review. Capital One cardholders (you know who you are) can enter 3 hours before your flight departs- and you should take advantage of this benefit. Once we were seated, we scanned the QR code to order food and drinks. We ordered (at least) one of everything on the tapas menu, and you can also walk up to get more snacks like Caesar salad, charcuterie (meats, cheese, bread/crackers), and desserts. For drinks, I had two mimosas that hit the spot! The orange juice to champagne ratio was just right, and the juice used was delicious. They also offer specialty cocktails, wine, coffees, a few beers, and canned Pepsi products. The drinks menu has mocktails, and I would have tried one, except I tried the mimosa first and it was great, so I wanted another. We walked up and got right into the lounge, but you can reserve ahead of time. I would recommend this as it is a bit smaller than some lounges. If you're traveling alone, it may be easier to get in and sit in the bar area. Some of my favorite food items included the Gambas al Ajillo (shrimp) hot dish and the Bikini de Queso (grilled cheese sandwich), and my husband got seconds of the Carne Asada con Mojo Verde. The ice cream sundae for dessert was also wonderful. The menu lists if items are suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those avoiding gluten. The Capital One lounge at DCA is quiet with great service, and an oasis of calmness between the hectic world of DC and the airport. If you can go, don't miss out! read more

Be sure to come here earlier or check in online because the wait time tends to be long. If you have their credit card with the perk, entry is free although I hear your guests will soon have to pay since Capital One is reducing their card benefits. Personally, I don't feel like the price non-credit card holders have to pay justifies the quality of the food. That's not to say the food is bad. It's just average food that doesn't stand out. Staff is courteous and friendly. read more

Capital One Landing at DCA - Olive oil pancakes - Airport Lounges Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

About a 3-3.5: I prefer this location of the Capital One Lounge - making advance online reservations is super easy and key, and the staff here have always been super friendly and attentive. I love requesting the end table, which is cozy and more private. Ordering is super easy with a QR code that you scan; the items just come out and served at your table by the wait staff. My usual go-to orders have been: +the Fresa y Piña - a non-alcoholic drink that is prepared with Lyre's Aperitif Rosso, pineapple, strawberries, and demerara +the Mocha - using La Colombe Monaco Blend; with oat milk +the Latte - using La Colombe Monaco Blend; with oat milk +the Cold Brew - using La Colombe Monaco Blend +the Eggs Benedict - a poached egg over an English muffin, dressed in a hollandaise sauce; this comes with bacon, but I opt out of that +the Lox & Half a Bagel - comes with a shmear of cream cheese and capers, drizzled with olive oil +Huevos Rotos - fried runny egg on top of crispy french fries; this comes with a paleta iberica ham, but I opt out of this +the Toast Montadito - the one with the avocado shmear, pepitas, cherry tomatoes, and sprouts +the cheeses - comes with 30month manchego, brie, goat cheese, and gorgonzola dolce, served with bread crackers and fig jam +the Olives +the Anchoas de Aceite de Oliva - Cantabrian sea anchovies, cured in salt and preserved in extra virgin olive oil +Boquerones en Vinagre - white Spanish anchovies cured in vinegar +the Baba Ghannouge & Pita chips +the Gambas al Ajillo - red shrimp confited with extra virgin olive oil, garlic, chili, bay leaf and oloroso wine; sometimes, the shrimp can be overcooked +the Chilaquiles - the tortilla chips are thick and crispy, with a tangy sauce on top +the Xuixo - a lovely filling of chocolate, covered in sugar; crisp and such a great pairing with your favorite coffee beverage I have tried: +the Flamingo Shuttle - a non-alcoholic drink that is prepared with guava, lime, and soda water +the Green Juice +the Olive Oil Pancake - with maple syrup and seasonal berries +the Pincho de Tortilla - a Spanish omelet made with confit potatoes and caramelized onions; note that this is similar to a soft quiche +the Pan con Tomate - toasted slice of bread with tomatoes +the Carne Asada con Mojo Verde - grilled hanger steak with mojo verde sauce +the Bikini de Queso - a grilled 3-cheese sandwich; the bread used is just way too thick and slightly dry for my taste +the Scrambled Tofu Breakfast Bowl - scrambled tofu with tomato and avocado I love that they have mini canned soda, to-go cups, and even cartons of water to-go; if the host/hostess is paying attention, you'll also receive a couple of dark chocolate when you exit. Using the restrooms is best when you go there first thing in the morning; otherwise, it can be better managed by the staff throughout the day. Definitely a good space to kill some time in a comfortable seating before your trip. +easy ordering system +require better maintenance of the restrooms +attentive staff read more

Great food and great drinks. I enjoyed the tapa size so that even a solo traveler can try out many dishes. Seems like they advertise it as a new concept of airport lounge-- definitely works out! I wonder how often they change menus because I already can't wait to revisit! read more

Have been back a lot since it's been a heavy travel month. However may be it's my imagination but I feel like the breakfast menu has shrunk? I don't love a lot of the breakfast dishes. The ones that continue to be my favorite are the eggs Benedict and the fried eggs with fries. Thought having such serious friend and oily foods in the morning and before flying generally isn't a good idea. The food is good just may need more selection. At the counter, I usually pick up the lox without the bagel and some fruits to balance things out. Their coffee bar meets my needs well read more

Came here during a very short layover and they were able to fit a group of 4 of us in without a reservation. Food was delicious but to be fair, I was only inhaling for our next flight. Since we were short on time, we asked the server how long food usually takes and she went back to check and brought our food out. Unfortunately, 2 of our friends had to leave earlier to make sure that they didn't have to check in their carry on which left us with a lot of food that came out. We inhaled as much as possible within 5 minutes and ran for our gate, but it was 100% worth it. If you're short on time, like us, as soon as you sit down, order on the QR code and hope it comes pretty quick. The first round did. Drinks come out very quick no matter when we ordered it and I loved Ben Franklin's Milk Punch. On the QR code menu, we ordered: Gambas al ajillo, crroquetas de pollo, eggplant and tofu donburi, carne asada con mojo verde, biini mixto, taco de chilorio. The Gambas al ajillo, Carne asada con mojo verde, and the Taco de Chilorio (according to my friend) were very good. We shoveled everything down and made a run for our flight. The waitress was very understanding that our friends left us with a lot of food but we still felt bad so tried to eat as much as possible. The food and drinks here are very nice and I will definitely try to schedule a longer layover next time to try it at a better pace. read more

My first time here and it was fabulous! This location is part of a collaboration with José Andrés, so I had high expectations, and it didn't disappoint. The atmosphere: Very lively and energetic. There are 2 single restrooms (could definitely use more). Plenty of seating is available, but I recommend joining the waitlist through the app to save time. The food: Served tapas style. You can grab cold cuts, cheeses, and small bites directly from the tapas bar, or order from the menu through your phone. My favorites were the Baba Ganoush and the Carne Asada. Both were absolutely delicious. The service: Exceptionally hospitable and welcoming. Since it was my first visit, the host kindly gave me a quick tour and explained the ordering process, which made everything feel seamless. read more

With the Capital One Venture X credit card, ALL of the Capital One lounges in addition to over 1000 partnered airport lounges are included as part of the benefits. This lounge unbelievably is Chefed by JOSÉ Andres.. Whattt?!! YUP! It's only a year old and is in a centralized location of the airport, where finding other lounges in airports is like looking for a buried treasure.. Lol You can either make a reservation or walk in, just know, it can get a little crowded, so last time out, they were able to set us up at the bar because all of the tables were full. The food selections may be the best that I've ever eaten at an airport lounge. The steak and shrimp dishes were literally the same quality as Jose Andres' tapas style restaurants in the city, namely my favorite, Jaleo. It has a fully stocked complementary bar to satisfy all of your adult beverage needs. To date, this is my favorite airport lounge, unfortunately, Capital One has followed AMEX' lead. As of February 2026, only cardmembers will have complimentary entry, whereas for now you're allowed to bring one guest. Oh well, it was fun for my guests while it lasted :( read more

On our way to Mississippi the honey got us seats at the bar and we ate our little hearts out. Service was great! Ambiance is nice considering how small it is. It gets the job done! Let's get into it! Gambas al Ajillo - Yummy! We ordered a LOT of these! Carne Asada con Mojo Verde - grilled hanger steak didn't disappoint. Croquetas - Filled with Cheese. I wasn't a fan but the family enjoyed them. If you are a Capital One member and have the perk, use it. read more

Really awesome place to spend a couple hours before your flight. I drank 4 cocktails and had many plates of tapas. My favorites were the roasted peppers, the pan con tomate, the roasted corn (a little spicy!), and the gazpacho. I wish the shrimp one came with a tasty sauce, and I liked the carne one but it probably could have also used a bit more flavor. All the cocktails I tried were delicious and I wish I had the chance to try the coffees. Ambiance is casual upscale, people sitting around on their laptops occasionally ordering more food. Service was super on top of it. read more

An absolute gem of a lounge. This is in Terminal 2. I couldn't figure out why priority pass had what felt like 50 million lounges at Dulles but none at Reagan. We weren't even looking for the lounge, we were walking to get food around E and stumbled upon it. Right now, because it's before February 2026, both my husband and I could get one guest each in with us, which was our six and four year old. There are changes coming after February 2026 so definitely check the rules if it's after then. The food here is by Jose Andres who I know because of Jaleo at Disney springs. It's tapas, which means we ended up getting three dishes of the steak (which was three pieces each, and to die for). The chilled pea soup was also delicious. The shrimp was pretty good. My kids ate a bunch of break and pita chips. The espresso martini is on the sweet side but went well with the flan. They also have a mezcal tomato drink that tastes like a mezcal Bloody Mary. Service was very fast and friendly. When we first got there it was pretty packed, but by the time we left it was pretty empty. read more

Food was delicious and quick service. This was my first time at the landing. We got seated right away. It was tapas style. They had an area where you could grab small appetizers like hummus and veggies, baba ghanoush and pita chips, salad, soup, flan, and basque cheesecake. Each table has a QR code where we could order cocktails, coffee, beer, and small entrees. My favorite entree was the shrimp. My husband really enjoyed the tofu donburi. The cocktails are delicious too! I tried 3 different ones. I enjoyed my experience overall! The waiter was nice and very accommodating. One downside is they don't have complimentary grab and go, but with the capital one card you get 50% off. read more

I've been meaning to try a Capital One lounge for the last year. When I got a chance to fly through DCA, Capital One Landing was the first stop over a restroom break. Unlike other lounges I have been in the past, Capital One Landing is a little difference. To simply put it, it was an upscale tapas/coffee shop. Although I did not drink any coffee or alcoholic beverages, I've tried few of their mocktails and they were delicious. My personal favorite was Cuadratura! You do not have to make a reservation, but it's recommended if you have a larger group. Looking at the reservation calendar, they do book out fast. So if you plan on traveling with a big group and want to stop by at Capital One Landing, make a reservation in advance. For one person, walk in was perfectly fine. I was seated facing the airport walkway/aisle, and it was quite pleasant. There was a QR code for me to order food and drinks, and you could also order food from the counters. The service was nice, food was delicious, the space was beautiful, and I was super content. I wish DCA was my home airport so I could visit here as often as possible! read more

Had about an hour to spend when flying out of DCA and decided to stop by capital one landing for some breakfast and coffee. The Lounge was busy but they were still able to sit me right away. Ordered through QR code and food came in about 15 minutes. Food was delicious. Coffee was good too. Minus one star as the person at the front asked me twice in a weird tone "Do you have a venture X, you can't come in without venture X" As i was pulling up my boarding pass and credit card for her to see. read more

Wow this is something special and unique. This is essentially a tapas restaurant with some great options like hanger steak and hummus. You can also order drinks at the table and then the food appears. This lounge has a much younger and stylish vibe. This is very different from some of the other lounges I have seen with seatings. The food was excellent this is worth a try. Since it is not the standard chicken meal buffet of the other lounges you do need to allocate some time. read more

Came on a Sunday night around 6:30PM and got a seat at the bar area with no wait since I was a single traveler. The rep at the front said for 2+ parties would have been a 35+ minute wait. Been meaning to visit here for a long time to try the tapas food and I enjoyed most of the items: Loved: shrimp, egg and potato tortilla, steak, cured meat selection, tea selection Tried a bunch of the other items and they were OK not amazing. Now it's free food so I'm not complaining. Service was great except that the server filled up water glass for everyone around me except for me and had a hard time flagging her down. Glad to have tried it before the admissions policies change in Feb 2026. read more

This is one of the best things to have happened to the DCA airport. We travel a lot and we the capital one venture X card so we are constantly looking for lounges at the airport to relax before the flight. DCA recently announced the opening of this lounge. Although it's a small airport, it's nice to have an amazing lounge that works out for us. They do have online reservation system. If it's booked, you can still give it a try. You may get lucky just like we did. For our future travels, we plan to reserve in advance so we have guaranteed place. People working at the front desk were very nice. They gave us a tour of the lounge. Very clean and comfortable place with lots of charging stations. Bathrooms were very well maintained as well. Open bar was fantastic. They have small plates for food. I think the food is curated by Jose Andreas. Eggs Benedict and Avocado toast was our favorite. Overnight oats were good as well. They have lots of fruits. Highly recommend it. read more
