Someone sent me a 1/2 turkey sandwich with the cranberrry and avocado. Wow. So delicious. The bread was so fresh! The turkey must have been freshly carved. Cranberry sauce the perfect tangy/sweetness ratio. It came with a couple of cookies but I haven't tried them yet. Putting this place in my permanent rotation!! How have I lived so close and missed this gem so many years?!

THE sandwich shop in the Clarendon/courthouse area! I love their special sandwiches that rotate every month and always get sad when the month comes to a close seeing favorites leave. They have convenient online and phone ordering but even when I can't call ahead my order is always ready in lightening fast time. Everyone is always happy to provide recommendations when I'm undecided and I appreciate their craft soda and chip options. If anything ever happened to Earl's.... I can't even imagine.

My partner put me on them and their Turkey cranberry sandwich is the best. The service is always fast and everyone is friendly. They have seating inside and outdoors as well! Love this spot for a quick takeout!

So good! I've had this place bookmarked forever and I'm so glad to finally try it out! Found street parking nearby. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. The sandwich shop is clean and super organized. The cashier was incredibly friendly and helpful. Restroom is in the back and clean as well. There is also a diaper changing table in there. Tried their Roast Beef & Cheddar Sandwich, Sweet Potato Fries, Hand-Cut French Fries, and Fish & Chips Basket. It was all very good! Quality ingredients are used and the flavors are all there. Nothing was overly salty. The portions are generous. What a lovely sandwich shop, with amazing options. Can't wait to come back and try some more of their menu options.

Came here for the first time recently and really enjoyed it! I opted for the Turkey Club. Love that the turkey is carved from real turkey meat and is full of flavor. In retrospect the additional piece of bread is unnecessary and ended up making the sandwich a little tricky to eat. I heard from a coworker that the cubano is the thing to get here so I'll definitely be back to try that!

Turkey Cranberry

Really enjoyed trying Earls today for the first time! I tried the turkey cranberry and the chipotle turkey. I love that you can get half sandwiches so you can try different ones without breaking the bank! I really enjoyed the cranberry sauce on the turkey cranberry sandwich. It was really busy in a Saturday afternoon but the wait was only 15 minutes. Not much seating inside so recommend taking it to go! Only recommendation would be for the bread to be more toasted

Steak and Brie

Was drawn to this place because of the good reviews; however, personally I am not a huge fan The steak and brie was not what I was expecting. To me it tasted like a worse philly cheesesteak. The hand cut fries were really good. The turkey club was decent but nothing amazing.

Really delicious sandwiches and quick service! Even being busy it didn't take that long to get our food. The turkey cranberry was especially delicious. Took the food to go, but they also have tables inside and outside to eat there too

Turkey Cranberry
Ailun H.

Overall, 3.5/5 but will round up to a 4/5 because of the convenience and casual aspect. If I stop by again, I'll definitely try other sandwich options here! TURKEY CRANBERRY - 9.99 My friend and I both got this sandwich and it was pretty decent! This seems to be one of their most popular sandwiches here. I like that the turkey breast isn't just deli turkey meat but actual turkey. My only quip is that the meat was a bit dry and could use a bit more seasoning. However, the cranberry relish was a pleasantly sweet yet tart flavor that was the "cherry on top". The multi-grain bread was a good choice for this sandwich. The sandwich was good, but nothing exceptional. I don't eat a lot, so I was able to split this sandwich into two meals. However, most people should be able to kill the sandwich in one go. $10 for a sandwich is pretty pricy, but the roasted turkey could make it worthwhile. If you're okay with substituting that with good quality deli turkey meat, you can definitely make this sandwich at home for a much lower price since you only need turkey, cranberry relish, mayo, lettuce, and two slices of bread - most of which are common kitchen ingredients.

Only place I have found with actually fresh roasted and carved turkey (NOT processed). Too bad Jetties doesn't follow suit.

A friend who is a novice to this type of cuisine, was interested in sampling a variety of Asian style dumplings, and this place definitely fits that description. The spot can get busy during the prime time 6-8pm dining segment, so I'd recommend making reservations to guarantee seating. Located in the heart of Arlington at the intersection of Wilson and Clarendon Blvd, parking can be a challenge but if you're willing to walk, there is usually availability in the surrounding neighborhoods. The interior is beautifully decorated. Tile flooring is complimented by blonde hardwood ceiling and wall accent pieces, while bamboo lighting fixtures provide soft illumination. The menu is rather extensive and runs the gamut from soup based, fried, and steamed dumplings. There are also appetizers such as scallion pancakes, tofu with perserved duck eggs, and dim sum ...but we decided to stick with the more traditional style steamed dumplings. A pot of hot jasmine tea arrived to share and we appreciated the refills of hot water through out the meal. Pork soup dumplings - or xiaolongbao (XLB) - arrived first and I provided a brief primer as to how to enjoy this dish. XLB are delicate steamed dumplings filled with seasoned pork and a rich, savory broth that bursts with flavor when you take a bite. My recommendation was to nibble off a corner, and then allow the contained broth to drain into the soup spoon. If you bite directly into the dumpling first, it will likely make a big mess as soup squirts everywhere. We agreed that the pork broth was extremely flavorful and not too salty. I also suggested making a dipping sauce of the black vinegar, chili oil, and just a tiny splash of soy sauce. Dipping the XLB into the sauce amped up the spice and enhanced the flavor. The other two dumplings arrived a few minutes later. Of the two, the chicken and shitake was preferred. Seasoned chicken and earthy shiitake mushrooms are mixed and then steamed to bring out an umami-rich flavor. This was quite good. I grew up eating this type of pork/cabbage dumpling, so while it was solid, to me, it was quite "boring." The pork dumplings needed the dipping sauce for sure. Service was fine. Dirty plates were removed when appropriate while water glasses and the tea pot refilled when necessary. My only observation, and not a complaint, is that I can understand why some reviews say this place is "expensive." I don't necessarily concur with that assessment since I think the food is quality. However, paying $11-$15 for a plate of 5-8 dumplings can add up quickly. Still, for a restaurant where a diner can try a variety of different dumplings in one spot, I think the prices are reasonable. Dinner for two adults - a pot of tea and three entrees - with tax and tip came to about $61.

That thoughtfulness is one of the many reasons I was excited to try it. When we arrived, I was initially concerned after learning that the "G" on the menu indicated dishes **containing** gluten rather than being gluten-free. Since many menu items were marked with a "G," I worried my options would be very limited, especially for the unlimited brunch experience. Thankfully, our server, Emma, immediately put me at ease. She brought me the food allergy menu, answered my questions with patience, and made sure I understood what was safe for me to enjoy. While my husband and I were deciding whether to stay, the manager, Antonio, came to our table after Emma shared my dietary concerns. His kindness completely changed the experience. He took the time to explain my options, offered to have the kitchen modify several dishes, and reassured me that their goal was for me to feel safe and enjoy my meal. Thanks to Emma and Antonio, what started with uncertainty became one of the most enjoyable brunch experiences I've had. I was able to enjoy a variety of delicious dishes, the mimosas were a great value, and the restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful, with floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the space with natural light. What I'll remember most, though, is how genuinely cared for I felt. Before we left, Antonio stopped by one last time to make sure I was happy with my meal and that all of my needs had been met. My husband had put so much love and intention into choosing this restaurant, and thanks to Emma and Antonio, we both left with happy hearts and full bellies. If you have food intolerances or dietary restrictions, I hope this review gives you confidence to visit Ambar. Their team didn't just accommodate my needs. They made me feel welcome, respected, and cared for. That's the kind of hospitality that earns five stars from me.

As someone who grew up in Southern California in a large Vietnamese community and has visited…read moreVietnam many times, I can usually tell pretty quickly when a restaurant captures authentic Vietnamese flavors. I was happy to find that the pho here really delivered. I ordered the beef pho, and the broth was rich, flavorful, and tasted very close to what I grew up eating. You can tell that care went into developing the broth, and that was definitely the highlight of my meal. That said, I do have some constructive feedback. I ordered both the beef pho and the special combination bánh mì, and after tax and tip, my total came out to around $30. For that price, I expected larger portions. The pho itself was delicious, but the noodle portion felt quite small, and I left still feeling hungry. If the restaurant increased the amount of noodles, I think the pho would easily earn 5 stars from me. Unfortunately, the special combination bánh mì was disappointing. The bread was very hard, dry, and tasted stale rather than light and crispy. A good bánh mì should have a crusty exterior while still being soft and airy inside, but this one was difficult to eat, and I found myself dipping it into the pho broth just to soften it up. I also felt that the fillings could be improved. The pork skin was quite chewy, there wasn't enough chả lụa, and I would have loved to see more pâté, which is such an important component of a traditional đặc biệt bánh mì. The fillings overall felt a bit underwhelming compared to the authentic bánh mì I grew up with. Overall, I appreciate that this restaurant offers authentic Vietnamese flavors, especially in their pho. With some adjustments to portion sizes and fresher, higher-quality bread for the bánh mì, I think this place has the potential to be outstanding. Góp ý gửi đến chủ quán (tiếng Việt): Cảm ơn cô/chú đã mang hương vị Việt Nam đến khu vực này. Nước dùng phở rất ngon và đậm đà, gợi nhớ đến hương vị quê nhà. Cháu rất thích món phở của quán. Tuy nhiên, cháu xin góp ý một cách chân thành là phần bánh mì đặc biệt chưa được như mong đợi. Bánh mì hơi cứng và có cảm giác không còn tươi nên làm giảm trải nghiệm món ăn. Ngoài ra, phần da heo hơi dai, chả lụa hơi ít, và nếu có thêm pate thì bánh mì sẽ đậm đà và đúng vị truyền thống hơn. Phần bánh phở trong tô cũng hơi ít so với mức giá. Nếu quán có thể tăng thêm lượng bánh phở và cải thiện chất lượng cũng như độ tươi của bánh mì, cháu tin rằng quán sẽ nhận được nhiều đánh giá 5 sao hơn. Chúc quán ngày càng đông khách và thành công!
