Busy, busy, busy! It's a casual place, ki. Da loud. It was super crowded so we got a long community table. Ordered off a qr menu the online interface was a plus. You could leave the tab open and the minute I hit pay it felt like my drink was at the table. Drink and food menu was a little basic, but we still found something to hold us over. It was OK for me. read more

I felt at home on my first visit. The bartenders were really down to earth and the first-name-basis game was strong. Totally appreciated the fun loud vibe at this bar. I was here on a Tuesday so I opted for tacos. I'm not big on fish tacos, but theirs made me a fan. This gem is packed with 2 large pieces of fried fillets and the tartar sauce made it even better. The grilled chicken taco was my second favorite with good flavor. Their beef taco was just okay for me. Tacos went well with my Kolsch from Bear Chase. As simple as chips and salsa can be, I'd probably get fries instead. Their chips were subpar and salsa was a sweet kind... not for me. Now I'm looking forward to their burger... when I return to the area. read more

So bad - hope your phone is charged because you can't talk to anyone to order. The beer is expensive but good and the pretzel is ok (hard to mess up a frozen and heated pretzel). The rest of the food is not good at all - Greek salad has old cold dried out chicken. Tacos are ground beef and old El Paso spice seasoning - but made wrong. Sliders are burnt hockey pucks of meat. Side salad is spring mix with balsamic vinegar ... not sure how this place stays in business. Will not return. read more

I think Highline has such great potential - this is a bar nestled into the streets of Crystal City and overlooks the main street that goes along the water. This looks and feels like your traditional sports + game bar. There are dozens of tall bar tables and four tops scattered through a large open floor plan in addition to the long bar that runs along the side of the space. TV's, sports memorabilia, and fun bar decor hang throughout the space; makes the place really feel like your typical college bar (but a whole lot cleaner). The energy throughout the bar is light and fun; folks of all walks of life crowd around tables talking, playing board games, and watching sports. I've sat at the bar during both of my visits; the bartenders are very friendly, chatty, and fast with their service. I appreciate how many beer and cocktail options they offer - there's definitely something for every palette here. I've had a number of their ciders on draft as well as the standard well drink; all my drink choices have been solid and pretty decently priced for the area ($6-9 for a draft beer/seltzer and $9-11 for a well drink or cocktail). We didn't partake, but they also have a slew of gameday shot specials for $6. The food is where I was let down a bit. I've had the chicken sandwich and fries ($17ish) - the chicken patty was 100% a frozen unseasoned patty that they fried and sauced. While the sauce was tasty, I was expecting a higher quality sandwich, with more flavor overall. The fries are solid, seasoned with salt and pepper + nice and crispy. I also ordered the cajun wings - I got 6 party wings for $15 which was a major disappointment. They loaded my platter with celery, carrots, and leafy greens - there were more veggies on my tray than wings. The flavor itself of the wing was solid, just need more than 6 for that price point. If you're looking for a great meal, I'd suggest looking elsewhere - but this is a really good option to watch the games, socialize, and enjoy a few drinks. read more

5 stars for a great Cheers-type bar with great staff and fun events. I've been a regular here for nearly two years, for two big reasons. 1) the bartenders are some of the friendliest in the area. Simon and Shanon have never once let me down, and even on busy nights take the time to talk to each individual guest and answer any questions or offer recommendations. Additionally, there is a real neighborhood atmosphere that is rare in a place like Crystal City, helped by the fact "everybody knows your name". The staff here is a great balance of friendliness, knowledge, and professionalism. Shout out as well to Carlos for always being proactive about fixing orders and keeping the guests happy. 2) weekly trivia with James on Monday's. This event uses the TriviaMatic app rather than pen and paper, making it much more accessible to those of us who can't hear in a crowded bar, and quick to score. There is a great mix of regular teams and rivalries, and well as newbies who just dropped in for happy hour or to watch the game, and decided to join in. The atmosphere is full of laughter and friendly competition, guided by James and his solid sense of humor. Honestly I recommend everyone stop by at least once to meet the staff, have a pint, and maybe even stick around for trivia! read more

I came here in the Fall of 22 for their trivia, comedy, and karaoke night, all combined in one! It was a great evening out, entertaining and fun. When you first come in, you can either take the staircase up or there is an elevator that will take you up as well. When you get upstairs, you enter into a large open bar area with high-top seating. The staff at the bar are helpful, make great suggestions and provided great service. The trivia, comedy, karaoke show is in the back room. The menu is paperless so you scan the QR code and download the menu and order from your phone. There was a bit of a mix-up with my meal that I ordered. There were people that were being served that came in after me. That is the only reason I give it 4 Stars instead of 5. The food was pretty good, standard burgers and fries. I've been here several times over the years and recommend it as a nice hang-out spot in Crystal City. read more

Came to this place looking for something to eat after traveling all day. At this point I was. on the verge of being HANGRY.. The place was nice and clean. A typical sports bar. We went for lunch. There was no service at all. No one to greet you. No "Hey welcome in". There's a barcode on the table you have to scan to order and pay. Or pay at the bar. I was a little taken back about this and was expecting some interaction with a person. I ended up ordering at the bar paying cash and bought my own drinks back to my table . The food came out pretty quick. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich. The chicken was dry and flavorless. The fries were perfectly cooked . We needed more ketchup and a refill of our drinks but I didn't feel like getting up and getting my own drinks at the bar and ketchup. This place was a big NO for me. read more

Highline RxR is not your conventional restaurant. When you enter, you seat yourself. There are no waiters/waitresses. There is a QR code on each table that links to a menu. You then can order straight from your phone. The food came out fast which I liked. It might be because it was late at night so most people were just ordering drinks. I was hungry though. The sandwich I ordered was just okay. Nothing special but not bad either. Maybe could've used some kind of seasoning on the Turkey. It was on a Monday night so they also had trivia. The trivia was really fun and overall my party and I had a very enjoyable time. I just subtracted a point for the sand which being just OK. read more

I came here with a party of three on a Saturday evening around nine. There were a handful of people there and the vibe was quiet. There are lots of board games and two arcade games. I think I was hoping for the opposite. We were asked if we wanted food because "the kitchen is about to close". We answered that we were just here for drinks and no one checked in on us after we were seated. There were QR codes on the tables to order so perhaps there's no expectation for someone to come to the table. Overall: This place has underwhelming offerings and I would only return for trivia because there's supposedly a $5000 prize. If this place had couches, comfy chairs and smiling faces, I'd be more likely to settle in with friends and stay a while. read more

What a great way to end our trip to Arlington! Highline was a great experience and we really enjoyed our time. When you first walk in, they have a cute little set up down stairs. You'll go up the stairs or elevator to a nice upstairs set up! You seat yourself & order from the table. Our drinks and food came out SO quick. We didn't catch his name but the guy in the kitchen that brought us our food was super nice and very helpful! The food was really good! My coworker got the nachos (8/10). And I got the tacos - beef (9/10) chicken (8/10) fish (9/10)! I love how they dressed the fish taco, yum! This is be a place I recommend to anyone coming to town. read more

This bar is located upstairs. They do have an elevator to get up there. There is a paid garage nearby and metered street parking available to park. The inside bar/dining area is dimly lit and has some tables and a lounge area with some very worn couches. They also have a few video games in there as well, but they were all turned off, i am guessing due to COVID. There is an enclosed patio that they can open the windows all the way. There are TV in both areas to watch sports. They also have music playing in the background. There are seat along the perimeter of the patio area that you can sit and overlook the streets You do not have a server here. You grab a seat, scan a QR code, which will bring up a menu, and place your order. You pay directly from there. They have specials every day. I came on Taco Tuesday, $3 tacos. They also have drink specials. I ordered a turkey club with tater tots and a beef taco. My food came out very quickly, less than 5 minutes. The food was delicious. The bread on my club sandwich had a toasted butter taste, just like I like it. I highly recommend giving it a try. The taco was bigger than I expected and was full of flavor. It also come with chips and salsa. This bar/restaurant has a nice chill vibe and is a cool spot to meet up with friends and have a drink or two. They have some pretty good food too. Be sure to check out their specials if you do go, they may save you a few bucks. read more

FINALLY got a chance to visit this place I heard so much about, and I wasn't disappointed! The atmosphere going in was jumpin', vibrant. You could just feel the positive energy of the other patrons. Seated quickly, and our order came out just as speedily. Our waiter was friendly. Special note: Be sure and try the Bear Chase Kodiak Kolsch . My husband raved about it! I give high marks to the Hazy Like a Fox. Very fruity and smooth. We both had the Smash burgers and parmesan truffle fries. All on point. All in all, it was a satisfying experience, if a bit pricier than we're used to. If we're ever back in the area, we'll be sure and drop by again. read more

The upstairs space was good for the event I attended and there's a bar for drinks. The venue was just a casual bar setting with some seating and tables (lots of high tops) and some games you can pay to play closer to the stairs. Interior is a bit dingy, but adds to the casual vibes. read more

I visited Makers Union Pentagon City for a 4:45pm Thursday reservation for four. I arrived on time…read moreand was seated outside on the patio. Unfortunately, service started off on the wrong foot. There was a very large party already on the patio, and I was seated behind them. I waited about 12-15 minutes before the rest of my group arrived, but no server ever came by. We decided to head inside to get re‑seated, but couldn't find a hostess anywhere. We eventually flagged down a random server in the bar area and asked if a four‑top could be cleared so we could sit there instead. Thankfully, once we moved inside, everything improved dramatically. Service from that point on was attentive and friendly. The "Peoples Hour" menu was a highlight--great pricing without feeling "cheap." Appetizers were $6-10, cocktails $6-8, wines $6, and beers $6.50. The Down & Dirty (a vodka martini variation without vermouth) was solid, and the Out of the Office...Forever rum punch was decent. For food, we tried several items: - Makers Mini Nachos with steak -- Generous toppings but the chips got soggy quickly under all the queso, sour cream, and guac, which is not necessarily a bad thing. - Taco-bout Fish -- Crispy cod with a lemon aioli; one of the better bites of the night. - Drop It Like It's Hot -- Really good chicken tenders with a spicy Comeback sauce. - Lil B sliders -- Nicely cooked and not overdone; the Comeback sauce added a nice kick. The space has an upscale sports‑bar vibe with TVs above and around the bar. Seating can feel tight when it's busy, and the noise level definitely climbs, so keep that in mind if you're looking for a quieter meal. Despite the rocky start, the rest of the evening was enjoyable. Good food, great happy hour pricing, and solid service once we were settled inside. I'd return--just probably not to the patio during a big party.

Maker's Union on a snowy Sunday after the brunch crowd left. Beautiful spot to catch the game!

Looking for a spot near my hotel that was walking distance and found this one on Yelp…read more As I approached the spot and realized it was in the Holiday Inn, I almost kept walking. Glad I went inside and sat at the bar. I was quickly greeted and offered a menu. Asking about the beers on tap, the local lager was recommended and it's cold & refreshing. It was happy hour and there was a small menu with good prices, but I opted for the full menu and selected the O'Malley's Chopped Salad with Chicken. Great salad! It's been a minute since I had Green Goddess dressing. It was perfect with the salad. The interior has an old all wood feeling with the full large wood bar and tin ceiling panels. Interesting. If I am in the area in the future, I will be back. Make sure you stop by and give them a try. Enjoy!

Inside the small, very convenient arm of Reagan Airport is a bar where you can choose from several…read morevarieties of Sam Adams beer or a couple kinds of wine, and get a decent, freshly-made sandwich. The prices aren't bad, especially since you can only get there by going through security first -- the ultimate captive audience. The atmosphere is determined by the location, but that's the way it is. The bar stools have backs, so it's better than waiting next to the gate if you are an early freak who fears long lines more than long waits. The American Trans Air employees even walk around and beg people to board their flight when it's time. I wouldn't expect that of Northwest.

Not enough chairs for the weary travelers, but I digress…read more The service here was subpar. Not because it was busy, but because the employees didnt know the name of the beers, let alone what theyre doing. I watched numerous people wait at tables, get frustrated and go when they werent served. I decided to cut my losses and just stand at the bar, the service was a tad better, but I still wasnt even remotely good. I asked for a Cherry Wheat and had to point to the tap a few times before she got it. Ummm......it says "Cherry Wheat" right on the tap..... The only reason this place is getting 3 stars is because of the beer. I mean, how can you go wrong w/ a Boston Lager, Cherry Wheat, Nobel Pils, or Summer Ale? Its much much better than the beer they offer at any other place in the airport. Quick tip: Save yourself the trouble and wait of ordering food here. Theyre just going to call your order over the the deli thats, literally, 5 stops across the aisle.

The cheesesteak came out nice and hot. Good first impression. Steam. Melt. Proper temperature. The…read morebread was cool too. Soft enough to hold the filling but not falling apart on contact. Flavor was tasty. Still. It landed more decent than memorable. Like a hotel-bar version of Philly energy. Respectable. Not dangerous. Not the thing you chase across town. The burger was decent. Straight down the middle. No big swing. No real miss. It had that familiar lobby-restaurant comfort where you know exactly what you are getting before it hits the table. Solid enough for hunger. Not enough for a speech. Background character food with main-character service nearby. The fries were ehhh. Warm filler energy. They did not ruin anything. They also did not bring much to the table. Needed more crisp. More salt. More reason. Fries should have a little attitude. These were just present. The coffee save was the moment. They ran out of cold brew and the bartender still found a way. Improvised. Built something with what he had. And it worked. That matters. That is hospitality with hands. Not excuses. Not "we're out." More like "I got you." Very rare. Very noticed. They were understaffed. You could feel it. But the bartender carried the room. Recs ready. Ideas ready. Actually gauged our tastebuds instead of throwing out random menu items. He made the place better than the food. I would come back just for him. No question. The vibe is hotel restaurant meets lobby bar. Clean. Easy. A little mid on the plate. Much stronger at the counter. Service took a regular meal and gave it a reason to exist. it's giving... Ted Lasso behind the bar saving brunch.

Disappointing breakfast, as usual on weekends. Buffet only. The scrambled eggs were hard and dry…read more Limited selection of fruit and yogurt. At night, food and service for dinner is good but the bar closes ridiculously early. The bar at the Hyatt across the corner stays open at least two hours later than Socci.

This is my first time here, but the vibe is vibrant, fun and well...gay (in the BEST way)! It took a little while, but we were greeted by our server and put in our orders. My friend got the wing platter and I got a lettuce wrapped turkey burger and subbed a side salad for the fries (burgers are half-priced on Wednesdays). My turkey burger was pretty darn good, it was flavorful and the added bacon was cooked perfectly and added the perfect texture, overall it was a very solid meal. The side salad was good, nothing special, but I will say their balsamic vinaigrette was yummy. Service was okay, we did have to track down our server a couple of times and follow-up with him when he forgot to bring things to us that we requested. The queens hosting Bingo were funny and engaging and overall the experience was a good and jovial time. All in all, it is clear that this is a cool local spot and I would definitely go back.

Reservations were easy to make, we were seated very quickly, the chairs were comfortable, and the ambiance was beautiful. It is hard to beat a rotating restaurant and the views it offers. The food was excellent. We tried the prix fixe Cherry Blossom special, which included a choice of short ribs or salmon, and both were very good. The specialty drinks for the occasion were excellent, the desserts were very good, and the overall experience was memorable. My only concern was the service. I am not sure whether it was because it was late in the evening, but our waiter seemed very disengaged. For a restaurant that presents itself this well, I would expect the service staff to be much more attentive and invested in the guest experience. We would return, but I would prefer not to be served by him again.

Parking in the garage, which the restaurant will validate for up to 2 hours (with a purchase of an entree). We got the chicken ($36), salmon ($35), and burger ($28)- I think the burger was the tastiest but it doesn't come with lettuce/tomato (you have to ask for it)- the fries weren't it though. Chicken was alright, salmon was eh. Again not here for the food. All in all with a Diet Coke and a lemonade it came out to $120. They do give you mid bread (kind of cold, kind of warm- seems like this Hawaiian rolls).
