Spud Maxâ„¢
Eli V.

If you're looking for simply lunch in the Ashbrook area I would highly recommend this place. You can get a soups, salads, baked potato's, and more all for a decent price and it's all pretty darn good. This is not my first time at McAlister's Deli in Ashbrook. The workers are nice and the manager is very friendly & knowledgeable we've never had a bad experience at this location and the food never disappoints today we got a Spud max + the spicy turkey melt + veggie soup and a Caesar salad. Great lunch place!

Half kickin crab chowder, Half McAllister club wrap

We pleasantly surprised to come across a McAllister in NoVa! Had no idea they have a few locations around here. We had to stop by and decided to get a late lunch. Inside was clean and lots of tables and booths. Fast casual style deli, you order your food at the counter and they give you a number and deliver your food to your table. We ordered 2 Choose 2s. 1/2 McAlister Club Wrap, 1/2 Kickin Crab Chowder & 1/2 French dip, 1/2 Savannah Chopped Salad. Portions were great and pricing is reasonable. Everything was delicious. Definitely an upgrade from Panera and will have to checkout where the other locations are if we are ever in those areas too!

Side of their delicious potato salad - Yummy!!

We ordered for the very first time through Uber Eats and what an AMAZING SURPRISE!! My friend and I each ordered the Reuben sandwich which were absolutely PACKED to the gills with DELICIOUS tender pastrami!!!!! Not overpowering with the sauerkraut or sauce either which was a plus!! The cheese was melted perfectly!! It was the absolute PERFECT combination!!!! We both also got an order of their potato salad which was also amazing!! My friend ordered an additional side of their elbow mac & cheese and it was perfectly done!! Super cheesy and delicious!! He also ordered the Brookie Bar and scarfed it all down!! Everything was absolutely perfect!!! We will most definitely be ordering from here again and again!!!

Chipotle Chicken & Bacon Spud and French Dip Sandwich
Sallie W.

Tried the pick 2 option and got their Chipotle Chicken & Bacon spud and French Dip sandwich. The spud was very good, moist and and rich. Recommend, if you like spuds. The french dip was meh. It does come with a liquid dipping soup which was also just alright. The sandwich itself doesn't have much taste so you kind of have to dip to get more flavor. Will get the whole spud next time.

French Dip 12"

My experience of McAllister's is that it is a quiet place to get a great sandwich. It never seems to be too busy and there always seems to be a couple women sharing a meal together. The staff at this one were particularly eager in their cleaning duties.

The service was quick and the food was fantastic! I enjoyed the atmosphere and would be eating here again because my first time was great!

This location is absolutely horrible. It's a shame when they first opened years ago it was great. I…read morehad gone there a handful of times and the food was great and always prepared properly as described and fresh. As of the last 6 months to a year things have been horrible. Ordering online, arriving at the store to just have the order not even prepared yet. I recently just visited on 4/23/2026 and it was the worst of them all. They were out of about 3 ingredients that went with my hot honey chicken bowl. The worker there did not know how to even make my bowl he kept having to look at the instructions on how to even make it. To add to that the blackened chicken wasn't even available as I ordered and was told when he was halfway done making it. Of course as soon as I paid for my meal the cook from the back walked out with a fresh batch of blackened chicken. The worker preparing my bowl didn't even bother to go back and check as he was making it to see if anymore was being prepared. All he did was say "sorry" and smirked as I walked out. The slaw that goes with my order was just raw onions, and also missing other ingredients. This location is horrible and it will be THE LAST time I go back. Ever. Don't go to this location at one Loudoun you will be highly let down on the quality of food and service provided.

What is the point of online order ahead pickup of it takes 20+ minutes before it's ready? I've…read moretried order ahead twice now at this location and it's never ready on time. Also they had all that time and still gave me a different sauce than what I ordered (verified via receipt). The meat also was very gristly in several bites.

I rate restaurants within their category and concept. I am not comparing a neighborhood breakfast…read morespot to a Michelin star dining experience. If a place consistently delivers tasty food, solid execution, and keeps you wanting to come back, that earns a top rating from me. Ted's Bulletin absolutely does that. We have been to the One Loudoun location several times for breakfast, and it is consistently a great experience. That kind of consistency matters, especially for breakfast service where some places can be hit or miss. One of our favorites has been the huevos rancheros. They serve it on tostadas, which gives the dish a great crispy base and a really satisfying texture. It is flavorful, hearty, and always hits the spot. We have also had their homemade tater tots, and they are excellent. Nicely fried, crisp on the outside, soft inside, and clearly done with care rather than feeling like an afterthought side dish. Their French toast is another strong option and always enjoyable. If you are in the mood for something sweeter, it is a very solid choice. We have also tried the breakfast cinnamon roll. It is definitely generous in size. It is decent and worth trying, but it can be a lot, which is probably why we only order it occasionally. For the kids, the hot chocolate is always a favorite and something they genuinely look forward to each visit. Overall, Ted's Bulletin continues to deliver tasty breakfast food, dependable quality, and a family friendly experience that keeps us coming back. Easy 5 stars from me.

I went with the club sandwich--perfectly fine, but about as memorable as a meeting that could've been an email. Nothing wrong with it, just nothing that would ever bring me back for round two. The fries, on the other hand, showed up crispy and confident... easily the highlight of the plate. There are plenty of solid lunch options in the area, and in hindsight, I probably should've explored one of them instead. I did spot a grilled cheese that looked great walking by--but let's be honest, grilled cheese always looks like it has its life together. It wasn't crowded, service was fine, and nothing was outright bad--it just didn't deliver the kind of experience I've come to expect from Ted's. If I return, it'll be for breakfast, where they seem to know exactly what they're doing.

I also like that the Nandoca's Choice is served on garlic bread, which adds a nice touch. Overall, I'd recommend this spot for a quick and easy lunch.

This meal was definitely rushed and I couldn't even tell what half of what was in my meal from which I didn't even see on the menu. Also I was not asked for a side option.

Best Greek Food in the Area - Hidden Gem!…read more This place is truly a hidden treasure tucked inside an industrial complex -- a total hole-in-the-wall that you'd never expect to serve such amazing Greek food. It's a family-owned restaurant, and you immediately feel the warmth and hospitality. Everyone is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food is consistently outstanding -- fresh, authentic, and clearly made with love. What really stands out is that they offer a surprisingly large variety of options for vegetarians -- from delicious veggie platters and flavorful dips to perfectly cooked sides and hearty meat-free mains. It's refreshing to find a Greek spot that treats vegetarian dishes with the same care as everything else. If you're craving real Greek flavors and don't care about fancy décor, this spot is an absolute must-try -- easily the best Greek food in the area.

The flavors here are bold, fresh, and thoughtfully done, with a fun twist on classic Greek dishes. My go-to orders are the Medusa's Nest (seriously addictive), the Apollo sandwich (perfectly balanced and filling), and the Pegasus Gyro Wrap, which are hands down one of the most creative and delicious takes I've had on gyro meat. Everything is well-seasoned, portions are solid, and the ingredients always taste fresh. Service is friendly and efficient, and the vibe is casual but polished--great for a quick bite or a relaxed meal. Greek Unique has earned a regular spot in my rotation, and I confidently recommend it to anyone looking for Greek food done right (with a little flair).

Upgrading from my review 10 years ago! Wow, a decade I've been periodically coming to this place…read more Hard to believe that One Loudoun is that old already. I would say that Sense of Thai St. has become a neighborhood staple and stands strong among the other great Thai places in the area. Definitely has improved and remained steady over the years. The service is always top-notch, and the bar with limited kitchen options stays open late as one of the only late-night options in that immediate area, which is nice after a big gym session in the evenings. I still think the prices are a little hard to swallow for the portion sizes in terms of how much actual protein you get with any one dish. But it's undeniable how perfectly balanced the flavors and spices are, and the menu is always evolving with a very wide range of Asian fusion and traditional Thai dishes. I have a TOUGH time figuring out what to order because every creation sounds so amazing! I recently got the beef noodle Thai ramen with the five-spice egg added (see photo), and it was really good. The five-spice egg is a must try, bursting with a rainbow of flavors and accenting any dish.

Liked most of the appetizer except for the wings. They are a bit too sweet for me. For entrees, we got a whole fried fish. The branzino was a good size and perfectly fried. We were trying to find pictures of Siam chicken and unable to find any. It is more like orange chicken to be honest. It was decent. Final dish was chicken pad Thai and that was good. Their pad Thai is always delicious. Overall the food was good but the service was spotty. Had to ask for water refill even though the waiter walked by and can see the almost empty glasses. We were there later in the evening so it was not really busy.
