    Chicken sandwich with lettuce wrap container
    Chelsea A.

    Received a free gift for chick-fil-a for attending a wizards game, so I could not resist. I got a chicken sandwich wrapped in lettuce. The lettuce wrap was an extra 20 cents and with tax, I paid a total of $0.22. Service was about 5 minutes from placing the order on the app to picking up. I can't really say much about the interior but I feel like it could be a little bit brighter? It seems dimly lit. I also saw that this location doesn't do delivery so you'll have to pick up your order in store. Something to consider if you don't want to go into the actual store. Food itself was a solid 4/5. I wish that they gave more lettuce for the "bun" or even an option to double up on the lettuce bun. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here but if I continue to receive free offers, why not?

    We just landed at DCA and were yearning for CFA, but the CFA in DCA was incredibly busy (long line), so it made more sense to drive here. Service was very quick and the food was fresh and tasty as it always is! Definitely enjoyed it and would return when in the area! There is parallel parking right out front, which you might be lucky enough to grab.

    I miss working on the next block. I was here for breakfast and/or lunch almost daily, unless I brown-bagged it. Using the app saves time, especially during the lunchtime rush. Clean store. Correct orders. Food served piping hot. Service always pleasant, despite the crowd. __ I eat. @f.hux I thrift. @DCthriftish

    Who's to say Vegans can't enjoy CFA? The team of employees were friendly while navigating the line of customers amongst the crowd control barriers. This is a busy location. The dining area has three different sections that was kept in a constant clean up manner. Good job on the Restroom upkeep as well. I got my Kale Salad, Waffle Fries, Diet Lemonade & was good to go. Metered parking on the street with nearby lots (some restricted) & garages.

    This particular chick fill a in Crystal City ALWAYS pulls me out of a last minute lunch jam when trying to feed employees at work. And during the pandemic its been even more important to get food that isn't intimidating when purchasing for a group. They package my chicken sandwich lunch boxes perfectly. Provide me with everything I need and I've never had any issues with the timeless. The lines are manageable and they have a system for pickup that needs to be recorded and duplicated. Thank you always being consistent!

    A good choice for food in Crystal City. I have found that the food at Chick-fil-A is consistently fresh and delicious. This restaurant is no exception to that. Chick Fil A is known for its signature chicken sandwiches, which are made with juicy, tender chicken breast and served on a buttery, toasted bun. There are 12 stores in the DC area. The Crystal City Chick-fil-A location is located in the heart of Arlington, Virginia, just a short distance from the Pentagon and Reagan National Airport. This location is on the west side of of the road and in a storefront facing Crystal Drive. It seemed a fairly busy location. Parking is limited with a few spots out front but not many. It seems to cater to a good amount of foot traffic business. The restaurant's interior was clean and modern. There are a few tables outside and about 5 tables inside and a counter facing the street. The staff was courteous and efficient, providing fast service efficiently on our visit. Just as with other locations, you order, pay, and pickup at the counter. Overall, the Crystal City Chick-fil-A is a great option for guests looking for fast, high-quality food in a welcoming and friendly environment served by friendly staff.

    I was in the DC area for the Marine Corps Marathon and stopped in here a couple of times to eat a quick meal. It was a short walk from the Crystal City Metro Station. The first time, I stopped in for dinner on a Saturday night where it wasn't very crowded. The second time, I stopped in for lunch on Monday where the place was packed to the gills. Each time it was very easy to skip the line and place my order on their mobile app. Their food was the standard delicious tasting food that we've come to love and expect from Chick-fil-A.

    You would think placing the order ahead of time will be fast but the wait for pick up is ridiculous. They need to do better.

With an impressively high Yelp rating, I was disappointed to hear the new owners say the glowing reviews are from the previous owner (though I respect the honesty). Despite that, we really enjoyed our visit. The new owners live up to the legacy. First of all, the service is excellent. An older man makes the food and who I assume is his daughter takes the orders. Both are kind. At the end, she gave my daughter a granola bar for free. The menu is a mix of Korean food and the small market in the back sells Korean products and more. It's very fun to browse and pick up some snacks and treats. My daughter loved the juicy grape fruit snacks. To eat, we ordered the Japanese curry and milk tea. Both were full of flavor and made with love. "This is my new favorite meal of all time," said my daughter. She devoured the bowl herself! There's a small parking lot in front of the cafe. It's within walking distance from the Crystal City Metro.

Who knew that there would be a cafe in Pentagon City with this option? The interior is a bit cramped with many cardboard boxes piling up. We were able to order the food at the counter and waited about 5-10 minutes before the food was ready. BRAISED PORK OVER RICE (卤肉饭) - 15.49 Lots of rice, more rice than I could finish with the amount of braised pork belly they give. The pork was very fatty, which made it tasty and juicy, but it wasn't very saucy. There were two halves of a bokchoy and half of an incredibly boiled egg, which was meh. Still, I finished all the toppings and maybe a little less than half of the rice. I was full, but $15.49 for the food was not worth it. Overall, 3.5/5 but bump it to a 4/5 since there's a scarcity of food like this in the area. They sell other comfort Asian dishes too, like coconut chicken cutlet rice and Japanese eel rice.

The workers were super nice and patient even though they had to come into work with the nasty weather. I order the chicken parm with the poppers. The chicken parm sub was delicious however the size was a lot smaller than what I expect from a normal sub. The poppers on the other hand I felt like the filling was lacking if you ate it by itself. It absolutely needed the chocolate dipping sauce that they provided to give the extra flavor profile for the dessert. Part of me wished there was just more Nutella flavoring or somehow a flavor in the middle that would be more flavor so there would be no need to dip. However, I cant deduct any points since I'm not a fan of chocolate and I believe anyone who is a fan of chocolate would be satisfied with it. The inside of the restaurant is kind of cramped but I came in when there wasn't too many people so it was spacious when it's empty. However it was cute and had seating facing the window so you can people watch outside. All in all I did give it a higher rating mainly because they were willing to stay open during the icy snow weather and provide food to all the travelers who were stranded. Thank you so much!

The ramen was solid in most respects, with a decent variety of vegetables and multiple proteins, including tofu, shiitakes, soybeans and marinated egg (which I enjoyed despite typically not liking hard-boiled egg too much). The noodles were a little bland, however, and didn't taste like they absorbed much of the broth. Overall, I'd say 4.5 stars are more accurate; YbP Noodle House is a regular haunt for me because the quality is there in most respects.
