My daughter and her dad, and I, ate an early dinner at Grass Rootes Saturday afternoon…read more We were seated quickly and with a smile. Appetizer: lamb lollipops (3), delicious. Very tender. Entrees: daughter-bacon cheeseburger w/fries. Her dad- 1 lb of Cajun Shrimp. Me. Southwest Salad with a big Salmon added for extra $10. It was worth it and we all agreed, I scored the best dish at the table. It was delicious! (Said everyone). The waitresses were very attentive. So much so, we had 3 different waitresses asking for our order once already ordered. 3 waitresses asking do we need anything else. 3 waitresses asking if we're good. After we paid, another waitress came over and asked us if we were ready to pay. We dismissed the confusion and waved off all the drama but really, though, every waitress who addressed us everytime, was a Lot, all of those women, everytime, had smiles on their faces and were happy that we were good to go. We did enjoy our time there. Food was great.

Zack and Marissa were so kind and welcoming and provided such attentive service! We enjoyed the delicious fried chicken & egg biscuit sandwich and veggie omelette.

The place was busy but not packed and once they cleared the table our large party was sat quickly. The service was ok at best... our server was rather inattentive. We had to ask for silverware, plates, and napkins. We placed drink orders and an entree order as soon as we sat as one in the party hadn't eaten.... Fifteen mins later we put orders in for appetizer and everything was just slow. I'm just now posting this as it was stuck in my draft box from last year... maybe it's gotten better but who knows; we'll skip it if we're in the area again.

Food, delicious. Ambiance, nice. Service, disappointing…read more I went with friends for dinner and walking in I was delightfully surprised. I liked the look and feel of the place. I had the Cobb salad and it was tasty and huge. Friends had the patty melt, the gyro feta burger, and a build your own burger. Everything was very tasty and portions were not to big but not to small. My disappointment is with the server. She set the menus down and then immediately asked if we were ready to order. Umm, no. She said she'd give us a couple minutes to look them over and then disappeared for 10. We had to ask another server to take our drink order and then she finally showed up. When the food came out, it came out one dish at a time. Why? We were sitting at a four top table, right in front of the bar, plenary of room to maneuver. However, she always brought the food to one side of the table and then stretched across two of us to give the food to the other side of the table. Why? Take four extra steps and set the food down right in front of the people and not across people. I'd go back but would be very careful of who my server was.

This place is lowk such a hidden gem! its perfect for a dinner hangout with the girls…read more They are consistently delicious, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every dish. The Sesame Chicken was super crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I think by far, this one was my favorite dish. I also ordered the Crispy Chicken Bao and this was phenomenal. The way the spicy mayo complements the sweet and sour cucumber was scrumptious. The service was so friendly and attentive from walking in to sitting down. The owner (Angela's mother) was super sweet! The decorations are super cute and authentic. If you're looking for great Chinese-American cuisine with an elevated twist and an amazing ambiance, I highly recommend giving Songbird a try!

This place is such a fun twist on a Chinese takeout bar. The atmosphere blends tiki hut vibes with…read moreChinese influences, making it feel lively, unique, and perfect for grabbing drinks with friends. One of the highlights of the night was meeting the owner, Jason. We bonded over our shared Cantonese backgrounds and even got to meet his aunt, who was visiting from California and happened to be sitting next to us. It made the whole experience feel incredibly welcoming and personal. We ordered the Dynamite Roll, which was a solid choice with 8 generous pieces, and the Szechuan spicy wontons, which were juicy with just the right amount of heat. If you visit, definitely grab a seat at the bar. The bartenders are friendly, engaging, and really add to the experience. We were treated to a complimentary shot of Jäger with Jason and even got to sample their Lychee Pearl cocktail because the bartender had made an extra. The cocktails really stood out. Instead of masking everything with sugary juices, they use extracts and creative techniques to build balanced drinks that complement the flavors beautifully. Jason also mentioned that their cocktail specials change every month, so we already told him we'll be back regularly to see what new creations he comes up with.

Lots of places to eat have good reviews but are empty. Then we get to F132 and every table is full and there's a line waiting! We had no reservation and got seated at the bar area in 5 min. Staff were all perfect. Oysters, wedge salad, (2) filet with 2 sides, and 3 drinks, and peanut butter pie dessert. $200 + $40 tip. Crystal commented twice how excellent the steak was, and we eat steaks in a lot of places. Highly recommend!

The wait staff you pretty much have to harass to get water or ketchup or a drink or a napkin or a plate because you have a shareable dish or literally anything. Luckily the food tasted good, but sadly the way it came out was also ridiculous. We ordered a pizza and a sub. The pizza came out first then literally 25mins later, when everyone else had finished eating, my sub arrived at the table. The kids burger is pitiful, but fine. The drinks are strong so that's a plus! I had the sky-tini and an espresso martini both were strong and tasted fine overall. The rooftop is a vibe and I think if you just went to have drinks it'd be great to sit up there and vibe with the good music at the bar. Sitting at a table, I just wouldn't recommend.

We had a great experience at Denim & Pearls on a Saturday night! One of the first things we…read moreappreciated was how easy it was to get a reservation, which can be tough to find on weekends. The menu offers a wide variety of options, making it easy for everyone in our group to find something they enjoyed. The atmosphere was cozy, welcoming, and perfect for a relaxed night out. The highlight of our visit was our server, Drew. He was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service from start to finish. He really helped make the evening enjoyable. Some table favorites were the pork belly and ahi tuna appetizers, the braised beef short rib farfalle and the bacon wrapped meatloaf (with local Whiffletree Farm meat). We'll definitely be back and would highly recommend Denim & Pearls to anyone looking for a great meal and outstanding service in Warrenton!

Enjoyed stopping in local retail places before lunch. Sat in top floor "balcony" outside area. Food: Her rating was a "1" for Eggs Benedict and potatoes stone cold cold. Thomas grocery muffins that were raw and untoasted out of the package were set underneath the nicely cooked poached eggs, Me: Rating a "2" The Recommended avocado BLT was overly mayo'ed and fries tasted like fish (ordered plain fries rather than other options) Service "5" Server had great USA themed fingernail treatments and also because the restaurant comped 50% on her cold dish after offering to replace the dish by both server and manager. Overall: Need to get food hot from kitchen to a multi level establishment. Maybe add a kitchen heat lamp or dumbwaiter but serving stone cold food is never acceptable.

We were lured by the signs on the road to Copper Fox Distillery. Keep following the signs and then…read morekeep following the signs some more and you'll come across the large dilapidated looking barn and you've arrived. It was a chilly day and we followed the instructions to ring the bell when we were outside. Shout out to the folks here who provide the cute cat with a heated blanket to lay on during cold weather. Members of the staff quickly came by to let us in and we walked into a empty sitting area. To be fair, it was around 3:00pm on a Wednesday. The vibe inside is eclectic, homey, and comfortable. We grabbed a seat at a table near the fire. We had time to review menu. I picked a classic Whiskey Sour and my Mom got one of their warm whiskey cocktails. Both of us really enjoyed ours. We sipped and savored them and just enjoyed a bit of a respite from our road trip. We both got a bottle of their whiskey to take home with us. These aren't your standard whiskeys and they are definitely more expensive than what you'd probably get in the liquor store. We've been enjoying our purchases at home since our visit. Copper Fox is a nice stop and I'd recommend it to folks wanting a break and a beverage.

The best drink in the tasting was their 8 yoa bourbon, very smooth and a little sweet, great for sipping or mixing. The vodka also tasted good in drinks. This was one of the best distillery I have tried. Service was very friendly and knowledgeable. The building is absolutely beautiful inside and if it's nice outside, the scenery behind the distillery is amazing with a creek running right past the back porch. The do offer charcuterie and other snacks to eat here when there are no food trucks. You are also allowed to bring your own food, which is what we did.. I can't wait to go here again when I come back next year.
