    Raw carrots...?

    I am not sure why I got raw carrots and cold, not fully cooked veggies with my warm harvest bowl plus roasted veggies. Wishing I went to sweetgreen across the street. Workers were nice, place was clean, but eh.

    Under filled Mexican Caesar

    Food tastes good but a lot of inconsistency in quantity. Look how under filled our bowls are from tonight. Definitely not worth the $13

    I love this Chop't at 1735 N Lynn St, Arlington just across the street from the Rosslyn Metro. I am somewhat boring and always get the Chicken Caesar Salad (the dressing is so darn addictive) but they have such a variety you can find a salad for any personality.  This is a hotbed for office lunch.  So if you are in a rush, steer clear of the 12 o'clock hour.  The team here does work hard to get everyone in, ordered, served, and out as quick as possible, much better than other restaurants in Rosslyn. Check them out if you haven't been.  1735 N Lynn St, Arlington, Virginia.

    Santa Fe Salad

    I've been eating Sweetgreen at least once a week for the last few weeks, and have tried almost all of their salad bowls and harvest bowls now. I decided to try something different and get Chopt, but wish I had gotten Sweetgreen instead. The salads here are fine, but I think they are smaller than the Sweetgreen salads, and almost all have more romaine lettuce than healthier greens like kale and arugula, and less protein options. I got the Santa Fe salad which had avocado, tomato, corn, pepper jack cheese and fried onions chop't with romaine, with a chipotle vinaigrette. This was $8.99, and I added quinoa for an extra for $0.79. I thought the salad was just okay - I got it to go, and ate it within 10-15 minutes of getting it, and the lettuce was already starting to get soggy. I don't think I would get this again - for a Mexican inspired salad, I much prefer Sweetgreen's Guacamole Greens or Corn Elote salad. My husband got the NY Street Cart salad, which is one of their seasonal/specials that had chicken shawarma, roasted tomatoes, cauliflower quinoa tabbouleh, English cucumbers, pita chips, romaine, spinach purple cabbage & cilantro. I liked his salad a lot better than mine - it had good flavor from the spices in the chicken shawarma, and I liked the cauliflower quinoa for a little extra texture and vegetables. I'm a diehard Sweetgreen fan, but I would give this place one more shot, or come here if Sweetgreen wasn't open (but Sweetgreen opens later than this place does). Overall, fine for a salad, but I think there are better places for similar prices that have better quality & healthier ingredients.

    Mexican Caesar Salad

    Back in my bougie days I use to eat a sweetgreen very often (this was when they still accepted cash). One day I was with my mom to go pick up my dad from work in DC. For dinner I decide to eat at the chopt by Metro Center Station. I was very impressed because it was different, the salads were diced up in front of you and so forth. The salad I first got was a safe salad aka Caesar Salad. At that point when ever my mom went to pick up my dad. I would eat there often. So when Chopt came to Rosslyn I was real excited. When that happened I switch from the metro center location to the Rosslyn location. Currently my favorite is the Mexican Caesar with corn, cucumber and chicken. The woman who was chopping up my salad suggested I try the Mexican Caesar Dressing instead of the regular Caesar Dressing. She was spot on because it made the salad that much better. I was here pre and post renovation I think the restaurant now is beautiful. Yeah there's not many people working but they are super efficient especially during lunch hours. I think I was only waiting in line for about 5-8 minutes. I really like there destination salad. My favorite was this Caesar salad (yeahhh I like Caesar salads a lot) with cherry peppers but those salads are seasonal I think. Also the people who work there are really nice and even if they don't have something they try there best to make something similar. If the salad happens to be soggy generally it's not the salad chopper's fault because you have full control of how much dressing you want and you can also request dressing on the side. Between chopt and sweetgreen my favorite is chopt. For one chopt still accepts cash, you get more for what you pay for (portion wise). I still have love for sweetgreen (especially the guacamole greens)and I like how they support local farms etc. However I find myself gravitating to chopt when I'm in a salad mood.

    They mix it up in a bowl.

    Gypsy kitchen This…read moreplace is quite good. I really love the charcuterie board and the cauliflower was amazing. This was the first time I've been impressed by charcuterie from a restaurant. The Spanish cheese (Mahón) along with the crackers and mustard sauce was superb. All the meats had their own characteristics and unique flavors but the jamón stood out to us the most. It even went well with the sauce that came for our cauliflower dish. It was fun piecing the components together to make unique tasty bites. I would come back just for the charcuterie alone. The drinks we got were Angelli's Ferrari along with the espresso martini-ish. My favorite was definitely the Ferrari one, but the espresso martini was super mild and had a slight coffee flavor. Good for people who like very light coffee. The Ferrari one was very bright and had lots of fruity notes to hide the alcohol. For entrées, we had the shakshouka, crispy, cauliflower, and brunch pork belly. Out of all these the cauliflower was definitely my favorite; super light with good earthy flavors and nuttiness and acidity from the lemon. The brunch pork belly was good too. The meat was perfectly cooked, but I found the beans to be a little bit overwhelming. I'm not a fan of baked beans personally so that might've been my fault for picking the dish, but I still did enjoy it and the pork that was well cooked made up for it; definitely for someone who likes beans. Shakshouka was very hearty with a lot of tomatoes and red vegetables in general. If you like lasagna or any sort of tomato spaghetti dish, you will like this one. I found this to be a bit much though. I was slightly tired of the flavor at the end. Just be aware it is a bit spicy. We had a pear tart for dessert. Honestly, it reminded me of an apple pie and it was good, but I think that some of the other desserts would've been a bit better. Had a lot of sweet cinnamon notes along some crispy flaky dough from the outside. It was an interesting take but it was still good. The atmosphere is great here; we had seating on the second floor, so it was different from the busy first floor. Very relaxed and there's a lot of natural light coming around which made everything feel very welcoming. Our server was also super friendly. I will definitely be back at this place

We sat outside on the patio and it was a gorgeous day. The decor is perfect and I love that they've added plants to cover the staircase. Drinks were delicious and the food came out quickly. Our water glasses were rarely empty. Service was kind. Food wise if I were to stack rank I would say the hummus is the best of what we ordered. The pita bread is thick and garlicky and oily and massive. The croquettes would be at the bottom of my list simply because they're dissimilar from any I've had before and a little bit underwhelming. The tuna was fresh but it's a small dish and not much to write home about. The lamb skewers have a subtle kick to them and they're pretty substantial. I'll definitely be back to try more! Highly recommend on a warm summer day as you're covered by the canopy above, if you're looking for a rooftop vibe.

We grabbed a seat and did not wait long for our food to come out. I really enjoyed my burger and scarfed it down! I paid for sauces, which were tiny and super overpriced. Hubs enjoyed his cheesesteak but he prefers meat. I had a bite and thought it was really flavorful and very closely tasting like the real thing. I noticed later this is a chain, which is pretty cool. I think the prices were pretty steep so I might skip on the fries next time. The food could have been warmer as well. Definitely worth a visit and will most likely be back when in DC again.

Now that I no longer reside in the DC area, I use every visit to eat my faves and occasionally a new spot. So, after another popular (and cheaper) Italian place closed before I could finish my delivery order, I spotted L'Ardente. I ordered the famous Lasagna - their 40-layer specialty - with short rib sugo, truffle mornay, and Sottocenere Cheese. The truffle mornay added a smooth, melty, creamy cheese sauce. It is good, but I am not sure if it is worth the hype at $40 lagnasa. I think the cost is built into the work but not the flavor profile. I think the meal is better without the sauce - it made it too salty with it.
