    Wednesday night Trivia host in 2019 looked someone I knew.  No idea if he'd still even be the host now.
    Leigh D.

    Onto the letter Q in my alphabet series, which only has businesses representing 2019, 2021, 22, & 24. Q is tricky. Representing 2019 is Q is for Quinn's on the Corner. In the 2010's, I was a member of a northern VA trivia Meetup group that met at various locations mostly in Arlington & Alexandria but occasionally they'd throw a Fairfax County or even a DC in the mix. I moved to MD in 2017, so I was a lot less likely to go. The trivia group realized we were winning some good gift cards for Quinn's or their sister restaurant in Shirlington, Dudley's. See my 3-star review from April 2025 of Dudley's. Quinn's was a more positive experience besides sometimes winning good gift cards. I went in 2019 several times on a Wednesday trivia. In 2019, I tended to work remote on Wednesdays & Fridays, and depending what was going on that day & night, I would drive from my home at Wheaton in the middle of the day when traffic wasn't so bad, wifi at a coffee shop in Fairfax County to finish work, and then go over to Quinn's afterward. I also occasionally had work travel to Arlington (or elsewhere) that would get me in the area. Their wings were good here! I remember I also got their chili, which someone recommended, and they were right about that too, and it was a hearty amount! I had the burger, which was solid as well. Overall, I thought the food was good here. Service was generally good even with it being busy. It got a bit crowded & loud during trivia. The last time I went was in July 2019, which I had to pick up a prize at the radio station in Loudoun County, and I went on a Wednesday so I could combine with Quinn's. See my 5-star review of Starbucks in Great Falls, VA that I wrote that day Wednesday, July 17, 2019 (where I wifi on way to Quinn's from Leesburg), only time I went to that Starbucks. Several things occurred which hindered my chances of going to Quinn's in the last half of 2019. I got a girlfriend in June 2019, so more likely had something else going on a Wednesday. One of the organizers from the trivia group passed away in August 2019. They had gone on that Wednesday trivia and thought it was weird he didn't show up, played trivia. The next day they discovered he passed away in his apartment, so they might have not played for a while. I stopped having work travel to Arlington in September 2019 due to them going online, and also in September 2019 there was a stop-work scenario and about half my company was laid off, so work had slowed down a lot. Then, Covid happened, and the Meetup disbanded. I think I'm on the Facebook group, but I moved a little further away in Anne Arundel County than even Wheaton. If I was over here, I'd return maybe with my girlfriend, but rare I'm ever in Arlington these days.

    Quinn's is a great neighborhood spot! I went for their $5 champagne on Saturdays for the first time and it was awesome! Perfect for a large group brunch spot. Our server was also very friendly and checked up on us frequently. I'd been once before for food and remember it being delicious, but this time we split some apps which were also really good.

    Went in for burger night. The menu says that it's half off burger night it's the little card says it's $10 burger and beer night and yeah we paid $50 for for two burgers, a soda and a glass of water. When we asked what the deal was the server said that it's under new management and they don't know what they're doing. I wouldn't recommend going there unless you just wanna pay whatever price they feel like charging you.

    On January 25, 2026, I placed an Uber Eats pickup order. When I arrived, the store was closed and locked, lights were off, and the entrance was not shoveled due to a snowstorm. The business appeared vacant all day. I canceled the order and requested a refund, but Uber Eats denied it, falsely claiming the food was being prepared. I also emailed Quinn's on the Corner in Arlington requesting a refund and received no response

    Taco Tuesday
    Terrance B.

    Simple spot, i wouldn't call it a hole in the wall but it gave me the feel of simple down to earth good conversation regular spot. The bar had people sitting the tables had people drinking and taco Tuesday was on with 10 dollar (2 tacos and chips) with 4 dollar Margaritas. Simple to the point and a good time.

    I came here for happy hour and It was empty. Maybe because It was a Monday. Anyway, service was quick, the music was good, very chill atmosphere. I think the happy hour drink menu could improve. Wine and beer but no alcohol. Appetizers are BOGO free so tht was cool. We had the quesadilla and nachos. The nachos could have fed 4 people and they were some of the best I've ever had. I'll go back if I'm in the area.

Super popular tourist spot (and with good reason!),I def reccomend making a reservation. Luckily for my visit on a Saturday at 1pm, the wait to be seated wasn't too long, only about 10 minutes. I've never had oysters anywhere besides New York so I wanted to try them here and my mom got the fried oyster deviled eggs. Our sever Stephanie was such a delight and probably has the coolest pin collection I've ever seen. Also the restaurant just has a really beautiful atmosphere to sit down and enjoy some really great hospitality. Onto the food! Oysters were smaller than I thought they'd be but SO FLAVORFUL and just the right amount of brine, and slid beautifully from the shell 10/10 The deviled eggs were given a 10/10, presentation was beautiful and the pickled relish was a well rounded addition We then finished up by sharing the cheasapeake eggs Benedict! Which featured their famous crab cake. The HOLLANDAISE?? literally danced in my mouth. The crab meat was so tender and buttery! Only difference I would've loved if the smoked paprika that was on the deviled eggs to also be featured on the Benedict! Over all it was a very lovely and sense awakening experience 9/10

It's moved around a bit over the years and the exact original location is a mystery. The restaurant story is just the start. The food of course is where it's at. Old Ebbitt is famous for it's crab cakes according to the server so you know what direction I went in. They were more like a Maryland crab cake which has a ton of meat. We were at their lunch dining so salads were also ordered and tasted amazing. Finished the mean off with a Key Lime Pie and coffee. Reservations are highly recommended given its popularity. They also asked that all attendees in your party are present so remember that to be seated. Situated near the White House, and directly across the street from The Department of Treasury, it's an ideal spot for a meal before or after site seeing. What's clear about Old Ebbitt Grill is its longstanding appeal. President McKinley was such a fan he reportedly lived there during his Congressional days. Presidents Grant, Johnson, Cleveland, and Roosevelt all stopped in, basically making it a hot spot in Washington. If it's President approved you should go also!

My spouse and I decided to treat ourselves on a beautiful Thursday night and - hold on - The Admiral was the place we selected.

The food is solid, the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, the service is always perfection. This time I had the Filibuster Smash Burger. OMG so good! A 4 ounce burger patty topped with shaved steak, some sort of sauce that kept it moist and tasty and some veggies to make my doctor happy. The menu said the sauce had jalapeno in it but there is not even a hint of spiciness on this burger. However, it is a total huge mess to eat so I had to eat like a grandpa, cutting the burger with a knife. But I didn't care because I loved this burger! My spouse had the All American Burger and he put the server through his paces asking for every topping to be served on the side. Sounds like a mean thing to do but the server gladly satisfied his wishes. To be honest, my spouse enjoyed the burger immensely and added only the toppings he wanted, in the amounts he wanted and there is nothing wrong with that. Our server, Declan, was very friendly, fast and served us perfectly. So, another great meal at The Admiral with great food, great service and great times!!!!

And when it's named after the establishment it has to be good. And it was! The sugar sprinkled cake donut was warm and tasty - a must try! I also ordered the corn soup. It was a small bowl of, you guessed it, kernel corn infused soup base with a crusty covering. The shell (reminded me of crème brûlée) was good, but I was a bit disappointed that the soup was only lukewarm. The best part of the meal was the hush puppies.
