We stopped in during a Profs and Pints event and ordered the loaded fries to snack on while listening to a presentation about sailors in the Colonial Navy. As it turned out, both the talk and the fries were surprisingly good. The fries were crispy and generously covered with a melted cheese-like sauce, a white sauce, plenty of jalapeño peppers, and lots of tasty bacon pieces. It's the kind of thing you'd expect to find at a sports bar, but these were executed better than expected. The fries stayed crisp under the toppings, the bacon added plenty of flavor, and the jalapeños brought just enough heat to keep every bite interesting. It was classic sports bar food, just done unusually well. read more

Highline RxR - Our Loaded Fries - I would order them again. - American Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

We went here to watch the US vs. Belgium world cup game. I'm so glad we caught the game here since we were able to grab seats with a great view. The bar was packed so the vibe was amazing but the drinks and food came out pretty quick. We got a couple of soccer themed drinks which was fun! read more

My group of 6 dropped in Highline on Saturday night and were pleasantly surprised by their $4 weekend beers! It was a great vibe and the service was quick and convenient. I recommend this place for your weekend hang spots! read more

Great burgers and fries. What else can I say other than I'd move this place home if I could. I'd be a regular visitor. Go, you won't be disappointed. read more

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

My work rented a private room for a big team event. We had about 70 people and it was still pretty roomy. The bartenders were good and they had a set menu of beef sliders, salad, chicken wings. Everything tasted good but nothing out of the ordinary. It was a nice venue to have a team outing near our head office. 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

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

This is the 2nd time I placed an order on line and I place it 30 minutes early, I get to the store and it's still not ready having to wait another 14 minutes so I asked for an Pepsi for the inconvenience they were like no you need to pay, how about having my order ready on time instead of having customer wait over 45 minutes for an online order and the damn wings weren't even hot Pissed. 39 minute lunch break gone. read more

My $15 fried chicken sliders appeared to be middle school chicken patties. The bar was also empty on what's otherwise a busy game day, go figure. 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

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 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

Nice bar, the bartenders are friendly and very proactive. Good amount of space in here to sort of lounge and float around. The drinks were good too. The food was alright, but not a highlight. Still would recommend it if you're not going for food. read more

Highline RxR American Sports Bar offers a lively and inviting atmosphere, making it an excellent spot for sports enthusiasts and casual diners alike.

The bar also offers vegetarian and gluten-free options, accommodating different dietary preference! Check this place out!! read more

We checked the hours, open to 11pm. Apparently the kitchen closes at 8:30 and some of us got to order food, they didn't bother to warn us the kitchen was closing when they dropped off the food. read more

Came for a private event. Nice atmosphere. Chicken tenders were amazing. Parking what is to be expected in Crystal City.

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

Highline RxR - Uptown Turkey Club - American Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Pretty good experience. Easy QR code menu ordering. Fast service. Fairly busy during happy hour time due to its close proximity to commercial office buildings. We had the fried pickles, chicken tenders, and mozzarella sticks. Very difficult to heat up fried food but they were tasty. Full bar and several on draft. Separate room area for hosting medium to large sized attendees. read more

Decided to come here for happy hour. The place was crowded so finding a spot was lucky. They have a ton of tvs and options for drinks so great place for sports. They also do the qr menu order to your table which I am a fan lf and the HH prices were probably the best in the area. Cool place and I would go back. 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

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

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

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

Okay my first time here and yes seating is separated , hand sanitizer etc ..We were greeted and seated quickly and served our drinks which kind you was delicious refreshing!

Their menu is simple and well put and I'll tell you this much of it can be paired well with for example fried green tomato BLT with a kolsch If you not made it to this establishment please show some love it's truly a fabulous place! The decor is well just sexy if you well a bit industrial which I love! The prices are in my opinion priced good! You won't beat the prices on the Jameson on the rocks. I look forward to coming back soon! read more

Came here for a private gathering/party this past Saturday afternoon. Similar to what other reviews had mentioned, nothing to write home about. 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
