Brunch all you can eat pricing is great for the amount of food you can order. The only foods that I truly enjoyed were the biscuits, cinnamon rolls, and the breakfast tacos.

Restaurant Review: First Watch (Chantilly, riding plz, VA)…read more Rating: \bigstar\bigstar\bigstar (3/5 Stars) The Vibe & Atmosphere Visiting on a rainy Wednesday morning at 10:00 AM left the dining room nearly empty, providing a quiet, subdued environment that made it difficult to gauge the restaurant's typical energetic buzz. The Culinary Experience The Floridian French Toast: A study in farm-fresh integrity, the accompanying fruit topping (strawberries, bananas, and kiwi) tasted genuinely unadulterated and free of artificial preservatives. However, this clean profile resulted in a more subdued natural sweetness than anticipated. The French toast itself served as a decent, approachable baseline--pleasantly structured, though leaning slightly understated in flavor. While a sauce was provided, a personal blueberry allergy left it unreviewed, and the omission of standard maple syrup left the dish missing a vital flavor bridge. At its current price point, the meal feels accessibly priced--almost a bit underpriced for what you get, making it a fair option for diners seeking an unfussy breakfast. Beverages: The drink experience was a mixed bag. The table water was served in a charmingly vintage milk-bottle style with separate, high-quality heavy glassware. However, the weight of the large bottle made pouring cumbersome, resulting in an accidental spill. Additionally, an order of the Morning Meditation juice (featuring beets, carrots, and tomatoes) served as a stark reminder to check ingredients; its vegetable-forward profile proved an ill-advised pairing with sweet French toast and ultimately missed the mark. Service & Professionalism Front-of-house hospitality suffered from notable friction points. The initial greeting felt rushed; the server approached before the menu could even be reviewed, forcing a default choice of water. More concerningly, a major lapse in staff professionalism occurred when a waiter from afar engaged in repeated, flirtatious winking, creating an intensely uncomfortable environment that ultimately cut the visit short. The Verdict First Watch in Chantilly offers a clean, reasonably priced breakfast baseline with genuine ingredients, but inconsistencies in service pacing, beverage alignment, and--most crucially--guest comfort prevent it from achieving a higher mark. A 3-star experience defined by mixed culinary highs and lows, overshadowed by a severe breakdown in front-of-house professionalism.

It offers a seasonal fall menu, including breakfast bowls, wellness juices, cocktails, drinks, all-day lunch options, and classics like omelets, benedicts, and frittatas. Favorites such as the Million-Dollar Bacon, Braised Short Rib Benedict, and seasonal quinoa bowls are also available. Our dining experience was excellent, and I highly recommend their tasty, healthy juices from the juice bar. The maple bacon croissant sandwich with million-dollar bacon was a sweet-and-savory, decadent dish that was delicious and satisfying, with house-pickled jalapeños to balance the sweetness. Their new menu item, barbacoa breakfast tacos, was also excellent--flavorful, fresh, and filling, featuring warm wheat-corn tortillas filled with savory, seasoned braised beef barbacoa and fluffy scrambled eggs.

We typically get the ribeye and prime rib and for this visit there was a Teriyaki Ribeye special which we gave a go to try and it was not good. The steak was overpowered by the teriyaki sauce which was WAY too salty. Every bite was just salt. I couldn't finish the steak. The Prime rib was tender per usual and tasty. The price for the ribeye and prime rib has increased significantly over the years but the quality is not consistent every time. At times, the steak is just dry and tough. Hope the food quality improves as we love coming here.

I came back home from South Riding Inn after not being able to get service. Sat there for…read moreapproximately 10 minutes and no one offered me a menu or even a glass of water. There were two waitresses working and it was 3PM on a Saturday, so they weren't very busy. I just sat there waiting for someone to stop by and provide a menu. I've been here two times before and there were no issues with service, but it always gave weird MAGA vibes to me. Maybe it was the wall decor or the patrons that were there at the time. It just didn't seem like a place that was very friendly to non-White patrons. It was like they were telling me that I wasn't welcome without verbalizing it. I got the message though and I won't be back. I used to live in South Riding for six years before moving. I visited the South Riding Inn only once and it was late night at the bar. I remember the bartender was great. The food was also good. But, that was years ago.

We did the six-course chef's counter dinner at Ahso, and I'm still thinking about it a day later…read more Chef Jason was on his A game! We started with a black manhattan, rich and a little bitter from the amaro. The first course was a bánh mì, and it was exceptional. The pickled onion, carrot and herbs were the perfect bright counter to the rich, fatty filling, and the jalapeño gave it real heat, which I loved. My only complaint is that I wished it was a menu item so I could come back and order a full sandwitch! Next was a mapo scallop with speck. It had a dark, glossy sear with a little Sichuan-style heat, plus crispy speck and crushed nuts on top. Instead of wine, they paired it with a cocktail of Four Roses, Fuji apple, mint and honey under a pink foam. It sounded sweet but wasn't, and the apple played really well off the pork. The sourdough-crusted halibut had a crackly crust over artichokes in a red broth with fried sage. It was paired with a 2019 Empire Estate dry Riesling from the Finger Lakes, and that wine was the surprise of the night. We're not Riesling drinkers at all, but this one had a smoky, almost burnt-cedar quality that I've never tasted in a white before. We took a bottle home. The braised short rib raviolo was one big round of pasta covered in parmesan, garlic chips and bacon. It came with Our Lady of Guadalupe's 2023 Pinot Noir from Sta. Rita Hills, a big, ripe Pinot that had no trouble standing up to the short rib. The Pennsylvania duck breast was pink edge to edge with well-rendered fat, served with squash purée, mushrooms and a nest of shoestring potatoes. The pour was a 2018 Cerro Añón Gran Reserva Rioja, which was the best food-and-wine match of the night. Dessert was a pumpkin crème brûlée in bar form, with chocolate leaf tuiles, cream and a granola crumble, served with Blandy's 5-year Malmsey Madeira. Very fall, very good. Every pairing was on point, and a few of them pushed us toward wines we'd never have picked ourselves. That's exactly what you want from a counter like this. Watching the kitchen work from a couple feet away is half the fun. If you live in Loudoun and keep driving into DC for a tasting menu, try this first!

Maybe it was an off night. We heard good things about this place. That unfortunately wasn't our…read moreexperience. It was our first time here, and we had reservations at 6 on a Friday night. It was by no means packed, there were a few tables empty the duration of our meal as people ate and left. But the service was INCREDIBLY slow. They sent out an amuse-bouche which was nice- bacon and pimento in a little wonton cup. Our appetizers came out more than 30 minutes later. We ordered our son's kid's meal first, before we ordered our apps, but it came out after our entree's which was closer to 7:15. I assume the kid's meal coming out late was an awful server mistake, I can't imagine it would take over an hour to make a burger and fry up some potatoes. The chef was nice enough to let us order the octopus from the tasting menu (it was the only reason we came here, didn't realize it was part of the tasting). I almost did order the 5 course tasting menu, because it looked really good- but I'm so thankful I didn't. The table behind us was seated before us and by the time we left he was only on his third course. I'm also always cold but it was really warm in the restaurant. Not sure if their ac was broken or if it couldn't keep up with the weather. Not knocking the restaurant for this, things happen. But they probably could've used another few fans. We were the one table in the middle so the air wasn't getting to us. Not knocking the restaurant at all for this, it's a hot hot summer and things like this happen. The kid's meal portion was huge, actually bigger than my gnocchi order. We also ordered the brussels, pork ribs, seared tuna, tagliatelle, branzino, and pork chop. The pork chop was the most memorable thing. Based on this experience we wouldn't come back here on our own. We wouldn't rule it out though- if someone wanted to go here with us for any reason, we would consider giving it another shot.
