    This robot brought our breakfast!
    Kyle N.

    Is a five start review reserved only to fancy restaurants? Denny's says no! Great pancake breakfast with eggs and bacon, it doesn't get anymore Americana than this. Brought to our table by a robot straight from the 80's, and a super friendly server -I regret forgetting her name- that made us feel very welcomed, and kept our coffee hot. Speaking of coffee; it's that good dinner coffee that takes you back to the days before coffee costed an arm and a leg. I'm going back tomorrow!

    Visited after church, granddaughter was visiting us. Ordered the Lumberjack with choconana pancakes, the special He-man meal with chocolate mint ice cream ( she loved them). I ordered the cheese egg scrambler with pancakes. Waitress was friendly when she came to table but not over enthusiastic to serve us. Was more interested in sitting at a table near us with her family. Asked for a box due to was unable to finish pancakes, was loading pancakes in container picked up last one to put in and a jalapeño stem fell back on plate. Was going to make the pancakes for husbands breakfast but wasn't able due to he is allergic to any peeper contact. Informed waitress , who informed she would tell kitchen but proceeded back to the table with family. Also informed manager on duty who did nothing but apologize and said he would talk to verbal manager. I'm more disappointed with the brush off attitudes, than anything else.

    The server who attended me was very friendly and quick. The food was also great -- perfect for a late-night breakfast. Highly recommend!

    While Denny's doesn't have a great reputation, I've actually grown to like it. This one was perfectly fine. There's plenty of free parking and my wife and I were seated immediately. The staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful. The restaurant was clean and of course the prices aren't bad. The food was actually pretty good so no complaints from me. Knowing it's a Denny's helps. I went with a Crazy Spicy Skillet, which was cooked perfectly and I had enough leftovers for another meal. My wife had a veggie omelette that she enjoyed thoroughly.

    3.5 stars for an overall a positive diner experience. The service was quick and efficient. We had to put our name down for a wait on Saturday morning but were seated pretty quickly after waiting 5 minutes. I got the grand slam. The pancakes were good but could be flufflier and had a slightly overdone taste to them. The fried eggs were my favorite part. I ordered over medium but the yolk was very runny when it arrived. I didn't mind but if you want a solid yolk, you may want to order over hard. The bacon was not very warm when it arrived but tasted fine. They have cute christmas decor and booth seating. They also had a cool server robot bring food out to the table next to us (supervised by a staff member).

    12/17/23 Very busy in here, but I feel great and I now have  lasagna and red potatoes with fajitas mix on my mind  Yum.

    12/17/23 David Menashi once asked "how's the pasta?" This was back at The Gow School Summer Program in 1993.  Well Mr. Menashi, I can honestly say "it's magnificent" or better yet  "é magnífico."   Yesterday, I was looking at the Double Blue Berry Pancakes, but decided I wanted Meat Lasagna.   The Denny's Lasagna is a fairly new item added to the menu, but it is worth the 20 minute wait for it. This delicious meal starts at 11am and continues to 11pm.  Guess the oven needs to be cleaned up at some point in time. Enrique, our server was right on point with what was going on in the very busy restaurant. I got good vibes from him and so did my wife. We also learned that David stepped down from being the store manager.   He has been in the  managerial role for 15 years. It was strange to see him as a server, but he seemed a lot happier  and less stressed. This experience has been a tremendous improvement.   Our last experience wasn't so good.  I am happy things are back to bing crazy busy at Falls Church Denny's.   We will be back again on a weekend.

    There's a burrito place inside here called Banda Burrito. Their burritos are always PACKED with the ingredients they say on the menu that'll be in there. The burritos are hefty. The Chips and Nachos are good too. Chips are crispy but not burnt, the nachos have the usual peppers but it's not as heavily spicy as others I've tried, it's simply just your regular salsa con queso. Banda Burritos is one of my go-to take-out places on DoorDash, I order from them at least once a month For the amount of money they charge you and how much food you get with the combos, it's definitely worth it. I'm not sure why it never pops up on searches on Maps but it's inside Denny's and it's definitely worth the try!

    I have not stopped by this Dennys location in over 5 years now.. Dennys National promotions got me there... this location is independently owned and doesn't accept those promotions... The server was amazing, the food was exactly as I ordered.. the restaurant was very clean Thank You

    Hands down probably the best restaurant I have eaten at so far this year…read more Amazing food, friendly service, and a nice ambiance. The place can get quite busy so I would highly recommend making a reservation first. We ordered some cocktails which all tasted amazing, I enjoyed the espresso martini the most. Our table ordered the baked oysters and tuna tartare to start. The oysters were seriously so fricking good, I wanted to order another round! The tuna tarate was refreshing and tasted really good as well. I highly recommend ordering the fish curry or their scallop entree. I also got to have a bite of the chicken & waffles and the steak pasta but I would skip on those. Super excited to come back!!

    This was not what I expected to write after looking forward to lunch at Matt and Tony's for quite…read moresome time. But someone has to say it: the king isn't wearing any clothes. My wife and I arrived around 1:20 p.m. on a Thursday. The lunch crowd was still going strong, which only reinforced that we had picked a popular spot. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill almost immediately. When we walked in, there was no hostess to be found. After waiting about four minutes, she finally appeared and offered us a choice between a small table in the corner or one by the bar. Given how busy the restaurant was, we took the table by the bar. About seven minutes later, someone finally came by to offer us water and explained that our server was busy, but she would help us in the meantime. No problem. We ordered the Avo Goddess Salad and asked that it be split so we could share it. A few minutes later, our server arrived, introduced herself, and we let her know we had already ordered the salad and were ready to place our lunch orders. She was very helpful in guiding my wife toward the Old Bay Shrimp Burger. I was excited to order the Shrimp and Grits until I learned it contained Andouille sausage and, according to our server, couldn't be prepared without it. Since the restaurant highlights that everything is made from scratch, that surprised me. I ended up ordering the Ahi Tuna Salad instead. So far, so good. Then came the frustration. We spent the next 20 minutes slowly picking at our salad, growing increasingly hungry and confused. You know something is wrong when guests who were seated after you begin receiving their meals before you. Finally, at 2:10 p.m., our food arrived: my Ahi Tuna Salad and a Pulled Lamb Sandwich for my wife. Except my wife had ordered the Shrimp Burger. When we pointed out the mistake to what was now our third server, she quickly assured us it would be corrected. A few minutes later, our original server returned and took full responsibility. She explained that the lamb and shrimp items are next to each other in the POS system and she accidentally selected the wrong item. She assured us the Shrimp Burger would be out in two minutes and suggested we enjoy the fries that came with the lamb sandwich while we waited. Unfortunately, another ten minutes passed before the burger finally arrived. Here's where things became truly disappointing: the top bun was still cold--almost frozen. My wife ended up removing it entirely and eating the sandwich with just the bottom bun. At best, the Shrimp Burger was decent, but certainly not worth the wait and frustration. As for my Ahi Tuna Salad, it felt like something I could easily make at home, especially considering the $25 price tag. I'm also not entirely convinced the tuna was particularly fresh. I can't bring myself to give Matt and Tony's one star because the atmosphere is genuinely cool and inviting. So I settled on two stars--mostly for how I felt before the experience unraveled. And listen, I get it. Mistakes happen. We're all human. But as someone who eats out frequently, here's one piece of advice: when a restaurant makes a significant mistake with a customer's order, consider taking that item off the bill. Sometimes that gesture is the only reason a guest decides to come back.

I've been a fan of mushrooms since childhood and so the mushroom ravioli stood out to me and it was delicious! It's a hefty portion if you add additional protein. Too bad I forgot my to-go container and noticed when I was nearly home :( I tried my friend's Fish & Chips which were equally delicious and perfectly crispy. I'll come back to get my own plate of Fish & Chips and French Onion Soup. The White Russian was especially well-done. They also had St. Patrick's Day specials and while I don't think I would try the Sparkling Shamrock in the future though enjoyed that they had fun options to try. I also am appreciative that there are a handful of non-alcoholic options for someone like me who gets easily flushed. This was my first non-alcoholic beer I've tried and am a fan. The restroom is a bit awkward; upon entering the women's restroom, there is only a single stall and not sure if there is a lock mechanism - anyone can enter and could enter the stall if you aren't holding the stall door restroom. Otherwise the restroom is well maintained and clean. +Mushroom Ravioli-wild mushroom ravioli sautéed with fresh spinach, pancetta, mushrooms, tomato and onions in a sherry-parmesan cream sauce, topped with parmesan cheese w/ shrimp +Fish & Chips-handcut cod filets dipped in beer batter and golden fried, served with hand cut fries, coleslaw and a malt vinegar tartar sauce +Salted Caramel White Russian-Salted caramel vodka, kailua, salted caramel syrup, cream, shaken over ice with a garlic of salted caramel popcorn +Sparkling Shamrock-Vanilla vodka, dark creme de menthe, white creme de cocoa, cream, edible glitter +Erdinger Non-Alcoholic Beer

Haven't been to Chadwicks in a while, so it was nice to convene for a recent brunch to catch up with some friends. While there is limited outdoor seating, I prefer the upstairs since it's typically quieter, and the abundant windows naturally illuminate the space. The interior is also characterized by nautically themed decor, along with exposed brick walls and hardwood flooring. TBH, this is one of the better Brunch spots in Old Town. There brunch menu is extensive - https://static1.squarespace.com/static/68d065ce6d80726524c2bca9/t/6a3d8efe5e4fbd1439f0bc1a/1782419198238/Brunch.pdf - and has all of traditional breakfast offerings of pancakes, french toast, a variety of eggs, sausage/bacon/ham, etc. While there are also lunch type savory options such as sandwiches and chicken and pasta entrees, I opted for the classic biscuits and gravy. I don't normally eat this type of heavy carb heavy dish...but every now and then, it's not so bad. The plate arrived with two buttermilk biscuits, country bacon gravy, two sunny side up two eggs, and home fries. The gravy was nice and thick with pieces of sausage bits, but I found the biscuits on the dry side, rather than buttery and flaky. Eggs were prepared properly and had that satisfying "ooze" when the yolks were popped. Home fries tasted previously frozen and could've used a few more minutes in the fryer. Service was a bit slow as there was only one staff taking orders and delivering food. But he was friendly and would circle back around to check on our group frequently. Pair your meal with a few choices of cocktails (I ordered a $5 mimosa) and Chadwicks brunc h is a great way to spend a few hours on a Sunday afternoon. Be sure to inform your server ahead of time, if separate checks are desired. One brunch entree, one mimosa with tax and tip totalled to about $25.

    Chadwicks has been around forever, but we paid our first visit here for dinner this past weekend…read more Chadwick's is really a sports bar and that should set your expectations accordingly. Service was good. Most of the food, but not all, was very good. What receives high marks were the blackened catfish, fried green tomatoes and chicken quesadillas. The burger was deemed decent, but the crispy fries not so much (I don't know anyone that really likes crispy fries). I had high hopes for the buttermilk-fried chicken. It came nicely presented with a very good coleslaw and a biscuit with a side of bacon-flavored gravy. The mac and cheese was okay but the macaroni underneath the surface didn't have a lot of flavor. The chicken's seasoning and texture were fine, but I really wish when a restaurant says they have fried chicken it's more than just a filet, like actual bone-in meat. But Chadwick's just does a filet as so many other places do these days. The server forgot my clam chowder starter and it didn't come out until after I had already received my chicken. But I sent the clam chowder back. It was so over the top full of thyme it was inedible. I think that there are enough very decent-looking items on the menu, I would return.
