Scrumptious restaurant! Quaint location in Occoquan, VA…read moreWhen it's not raining perfect place too sit outside and dine. Our server was very friendly! The lamb burger and Gouda Mac n cheese was so yummy. This restaurant is also next to a boutique that sells BEAUTIFUL wedding dresses! If I was a future bride I would definitely go and check that place out. Highly recommend Chef's KISS

We went to Bottle Stop Wine Bar on a rainy Sunday afternoon in Occoquan with our dog, Onyx. I was…read moreexpecting a quick wine tasting before moving on, but we ended up lingering over lunch and the biggest surprise was how much more they offer beyond just wine. Our server, Savannah, was really attentive and really made the experience. A damp afternoon on the patio could have been miserable, but she kept everything warm, welcoming, and relaxed from start to finish. The food was a bit of a mixed bag on the appetizer front. The mini salmon cakes were outstanding and easily one of the highlights of the meal. The dry-rub wings, on the other hand, were forgettable. Skip those and save room for the entrées. Both the crab cakes and the lamb ragu were excellent, with the lamb ragu being the standout. We wrapped things up with the butterscotch à la mode, which was a great finish. The atmosphere is relaxed and the covered patio was a huge deal on a rainy day. Dog-friendly on top of that makes it an easy yes for a lazy Sunday afternoon. We'll definitely be back.

Repeal is located inside the Hilton at the 2 Silos complex. It is down a short hallway on the right…read moreside of the lobby just before you get to the check in desk. It is an adults only venue (21+). You will be carded so bring your ID. A quick signal on the old fashioned wall phone and the secret door opens before you - revealing a dimly lit and quietly opulent 1920s speakeasy. We had made a reservation for when they opened at 4:00 pm and so were able to take some video. They have a no photography request on the menu - charmingly explained by the waiter as the need to preserve anonymity in case of a raid. Seating consists of a long bar at one side of the room, plus large semi-circular booths on the opposite side and a few 2 person tables in the middle of the room. There is also a semi private room at the back with banquette seating. We had the best waiter, Tippy, who explained the menu, described the drinks, answered all of our questions and made some very thoughtful suggestions. Repeal offers extremely well made classic cocktails as well as their own more modern creations. I began with the classic old fashioned - one of the best I've ever tasted. So smooth it's dangerous. The other standout for me was the No Name off the modern cocktails section - a potent combination that tasted like liquid tiramisu. The food menu is mostly small plates and meant to be shared. We began with the crispy potato wedges which come with 5 delicious dipping sauces, these are traditional British "chips" big fat wedges of potato with a creamy center and satisfying crunch on the outside. Other standouts were the trio of filet mignon and the Parmesan potatoes pave which are more tapas sized and absolutely delicious. I finished with the pineapple upside down cake served in a glass covered with crunchy rum caramel. There is live entertainment which was just beginning at 7:00 when we left. Highly recommend reservations as this is a very small venue and fills up quickly. Repeal is what we've been waiting for - a unique and remarkably glam experience

A really nice and upscale place in the Woodbridge, VA area. Walking in on a Saturday for a…read moregirlfriends lunch - we were greeted by lovely hostess. The vibe is grown and sexy ... We chose to sit at the bar, as we saw a large party hosting a baby shower and opted for the empty bar area instead. The bar tender offered a taste of the day or something like that which I opted for a gin cocktail, refreshing and light. We opted for the burger which was delish and came with fries (not a fan of the fries). But go here! There is a sitting area with a fireplace and the decor is just cozy and easy going... I don't have pics - we were living in the moment... We plan on going back with our husbands because it has such a chill vibe! Here's looking at you kid - Bourbon & Fig you did that

The wait staff were very attentive and pleasant. Our waitress, Jackie, was wonderful! Although it has a warm, intimate feel, the volume in the dining room was loud. I didn't mind because it had a nice energy to it, but just fyi if you're wanting a quiet dining room. I did notice another room off to the side, so maybe it's quieter in there? Food: We enjoyed the beef carpaccio appetizer. My scallops were cooked to perfection and my husband enjoyed the beef loin special. Only one complaint - the crab soup was awful. It was like canned crab and frozen mixed vegetable dumped in a broth. Disappointing if it were inexpensive but insulting at $17. I love a good seafood soup or bisque but they need to revisit this recipe. Honestly, that's the only thing that kept me from giving them 5 stars. *edited to add: I forgot to mention the sticky pudding dessert. Delicious!

I came on a Thursday afternoon and enjoyed this charming little restaurant. The French fries and…read moreBiscoff waffle was our favorite! We also tried the crab cake sandwich and French onion soup (also yummy). The ambiance is wonderful with French music playing and a darling patio. The service could improve a little, but I think that was an issue of being understaffed because I could tell he was trying very hard. This a great spot for a leisurely afternoon!

Deliciousness - 4/5 Happiness - 5/5…read more I love Belgian beer, and Cock and Bowl is my favorite place to nab some of this great nectar. This place keeps the Belgian brews stocked across the spectrum. From fruity Lambics to Tripels (my personal fave) and Quadrupels, pales to darks. There's a lot to explore here. The food is pretty good too. The frites (fries) are excellent and pair well with the beer. They are thick without veering into steak fry territory, nicely crunchy, and packed with a pleasing amount of salt (and I believe a hint of vinegar). The waffles are also a standout, typically topped with light and airy cream. The merguez lamb sausage is also hearty and delicious. I wish the building itself was larger. There's only a few tables, meaning you may be in for a wait if you go during the colder months. And I recently had the chocolate mousse and didn't care for it. It was much more akin to pudding, and there wasn't a deep enough chocolate flavor to contrast with the whipped cream. There's no better place I've found in Occoquan to eat, drink, and be merry. I highly recommend you stop here when you visit.

Would definitely recommend. Staff was completely amazing and made me and my family feel welcome…read morefrom the start. Entertainment was off the charts. Karaoke night with a live band playing along -- the band actually pulled people into the show instead of it being just a machine in the corner. Food was perfect. We had the beer-battered onion rings and the Bavarian pretzel. Both worth ordering. The only downside was how you order and close out. Everything is electronic / self-pour. I couldn't figure out the system and had to get staff to help me order and pay. They handled it with no attitude, but if you're not used to tap cards it can throw you. We'll be back for the food, the staff, and that live-band. Check it out if you're in town.

The staff was very helpful and friendly. We came here before a nearby concert to kill some time and…read moreget some food in our stomachs. I liked that you could request music to be played but you did have to download an app and sign up for it. The music was also uncomfortably quiet. Like hard to hear even though it wasn't loud in there. After sitting down we immediately ordered the bacon cheese fries. I love the self serve because I got to try a few things, I also love that there were a lot of non beer options! I originally got a cocktail at the bar which the bartender made because I love watermelon schnapps and it was well priced. Next I tried the pineapple cider and it was delicious. Me and my sister also got some green tea shots from the wall which were delicious. We also tried the walls blue Hawaiian which was good but I'd prefer it over ice. After almost an hour of waiting for our food we got nervous it wasn't coming so I went and asked at the bar. As the girl was checking, they came out. We had to ask for the side of ranch that was supposed to come with them and I'd I'm glad I did because it was delicious, tasted like it was made in house. Now the fries were burnt and not good. At this point we'd waited so long and wanted to head over to the venue so we just ate them. Over all I would definitely go back for the drinks, maybe bring a game to play but I wouldn't come here for the food. Especially if there's a concert that night nearby.

Such a cute spot with a really fun, upscale vibe and great views. We tried the wagyu chips, which…read morewere definitely interesting but really good!

The decor was really unique, and the overall atmosphere made it a fun experience. Definitely a great spot for drinks and dinner! Note: I'd recommend making a reservation and I guess Friday and Saturday's they have a dj so if that's your vibe I'd hit them up then!

At least not in the DMV area where there are simply so many better options. Some friends and I were finally special enough to be granted a reservation and the whole experience was meh. I was a bit late so I checked in at Wren and then was walked back to the elevator to go up to their gym. From there you walk to a door. Once I got there and pulled on the door, a very dissatisfied hostess warned me not to do that. She walked me in and pointed me to an area but that wasn't even where my friends were sitting. Go figure! The decor left a lot to be desired and it was super bright inside. Right away the vibe was off. What speakeasy is bright? Definitely none that I've been to before. We each just ordered a drink and split an appetizer before dinner reservations at Wren. Once again, the drinks were not special at all. The Tokyo Reverie was somewhat drinkable, with Takumi being our least favorite. The server was somewhat friendly. Based on this experience, I have no desire to go back, nor would I recommend it to anyone.
