    Chicky Bun
    Dang N.

    I was really surprised. Burger here is actually really tasty. Had very warm service also.

    Standard Burger
    David M.

    Popular and busy location at the opening of terminal 2 at DCA. Sat at the bar and service was quick and good. Their old fashioned cocktail was tasty and well mixed. I was leaning towards a chicken sandwhich based on posted pictures but the bartender swayed me to the standard burger. Mistake because the burger was good, but not great. Not her fault. The chicken sandwhiches look delish. Fries come with an interesting vinegar based white sauce that I found to be delicious. The portion is also huge so you get your money's worth, but I like my fries crispier. Not their fault. But you can't go wrong with them. I asked for a side of ranch and it tasted like it was homemade and great. Better than mist airport burger restaurants. Lots of TV's to watch your favorite sport too.

    Solid good burger. Especially for grabbing something quick at the airport. A bit pricey but not unexpected at the airport and you get a lot of food so I think overall it evens out. Cashier was very pleasant and helpful.

    Belly Bun
    Art C.

    Good airport food Our vacation has come to an end, it was time to fly home. One place we ate at while visiting DC was Lucky Buns at the Wharf, so when we realized there was another one here at the airport, our lunch pick was obvious. For lunch I had their Belly Bun, a double patty 1/2 lb cheeseburger that includes bacon and their lucky sauce. This tall, messy, juicy, flavorful burger was a hit with me, just like the one I had earlier in DC. The quality and price were the same, there was no cutting corners or gouging just because we are all trapped at an airport. We had time to kill before our delayed flight so I didn't pay much attention to how fast we were served. I can say it wasn't anything extraordinarily long. We were treated well. Good airport food, what a concept.

    Inside: Seating Area

    They offer lots of seating and quick service. The prices are very high and what you might expect at the airport. I was walking through the airport and discovered that lucky buns offered halal beef and chicken as per their menu. I decided to give it a try and found the burger to be pretty good in terms of taste and portion. The chicken was average overall and much more plain. If I stopped by again, I would get the burger!

    Chia Pudding
    Stephen J.

    Known for their burgers, this place delivered with a healthy breakfast in a casual atmosphere in terminal B. I ordered the chia pudding: coconut/agave chia pudding, housemade hemp & almond granola, fresh fruit. The chia pudding was a delectable start! Customer service was excellent. Treat yourself!

    Had a 3 hour layover and wanted a spot with a good beer selection, and a good sandwich. They had one of the better draft beer selections in the entire airport. Wish they had more hazy's to choose from but the one they did have was tasty. Hard choice between the fried chicken sandwich selection and burger selection, but ended up going with the belly bun burger on the recommendation of the bartender. It ended up being a very tasty burger.

    This was not a great experience. Came here early on a Saturday and the waitress was almost nonexistent. Took a bit for her to show up and after she took my order I pretty much didn't see her again. There were about 7-10 other tables that she was serving BUT she would disappear for long periods of time. Another waiter came out and helped at some point but I had to track someone down for the check by the end which isn't great considering this is an airport location and you have limited time. I had the breakfast sandwich which was super greasy. To be fair, it's sausage, egg and cheese but even the bread was buttered so it was super heavy. Good coffee but had to keep asking for cream because they were stingy with it. Lots of USB ports for the traveler.

    Burger

    Tolerable airport restaurant. Food comes out pretty quick but the rest of the service was pretty slow. Fries are not include with burger / sandwich.

    Fries and queso
    Irfan M.

    This amazing creekstone halal burger was so good. I would fly out just to have this. Queso and fries were good as well. NBA Jam old school game inside. Service was good.

    Awful, inedible, rude terrible service. Clearly the wait staff needs to understand basic customer service. Goodness.

    Food was cold and soggy. Coffee was cold. One breakfast burrito and a waffle was $50. So many better options.

    Let's start with the Sunday Brunch…read more I defy anyone to find fault with that value. First round of mimosas is expensive but the next six rounds is cheeeeap. And the selection?!?! For under $70 two people can have crab cakes benedict, fried brussels, crispy French toast... I don't even remember. Like ten different things! I didn't have to eat again until 9pm. The food was great! Vinny, who was our handler (clearly he has training in special education or something because we that table. Or maybe the TIPS trainings have advanced to include messy brunch people) was fun, patient, and knowledgeable. This is THE SPOT for brunch on Sunday.

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.

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.

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.
