Nokesville Meats is a brand spanking new business in the sprawling Nokesville Metroplex. As of this…read morewriting - they've been open just one week. I did a double take when I was driving down Fitzwater Drive - wondering if they've been there for a while - as I don't recall ever seeing them before - so I asked how long they've been open. Lots of local meat options. I selected a package of their bacon and ground Chorizo. They have lots of other meat selections - steaks, all kinds of brats and sausages, pork products, and even some non-meat food offerings. Staff was very nice. Paid with Apple Pay. Service was prompt! Check them out! #NokesvilleMeats

We came out for the annual tulip festival and had such a fantastic time. We tried visiting last…read moreyear, but an unexpected heat wave ended up killing all of the tulips on site. There is so much more than just tulip picking. My kids had such a blast enjoying the tulip-themed playground on site and the food trucks. There is also drink stands set up including non-alcoholic beverages along with beer and a cocktail tent. The service is efficient. They've clearly done this before and it's mostly staffed by friendly high school students. We were allowed to pick 5 tulips each, so for the four of us, we had 20 tulips. Upon leaving, staff will wrap up the tulips to ensure you picked the right amount. You can pick more but pay per stem. The young woman who helped wrap our flowers was very kind to our kids. She even helped them count all the flowers and papers, which was very sweet. It was a really fun day out. It sells out quickly, so advanced tickets are necessary.

I visited Burnside Farms for their Spring Festival, which seems to draw a pretty big crowd every…read moreyear. Unfortunately, the experience didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Admission for adults is $21, and what that gets you is essentially a tractor ride and the chance to pick five tulips. Beyond that, almost everything on the property is geared toward kids. Calling it a "spring festival" feels like a stretch -- there are no vendor tents, no adult-focused activities, and the only shopping option is their small farm store. They did have a few food trucks, but that was about it. For an event marketed as a festival, I expected more variety and more value for the price. Honestly, with how much of the experience is designed for children, I strongly feel kids' tickets should cost more than adult tickets, not the other way around. If Burnside Farms added vendor booths, adult-friendly activities, or anything else to make the experience feel more like a true festival, the $21 entry fee might make more sense. As it stands, this was a one-and-done visit for me. Great photo opps.

We were in the area & decided to stop by for lunch. As soon as we stepped in, we were greeted with…read more"Hola amigas" left & right. Such nice servers! Chips & salsa were on the house & salsa was fresh with a great kick to it. Chips were crispy & fried fresh. We ordered: Guacamole: super fresh! Loved it. -Fajita express with beef: amazing. Meat was super tender & flavorful. Rice was fluffy & delicious. -Chile relleno, beans, crispy beef taco: so good! The Chile was soft & nicely roasted with cheese on top. Beef taco was crispy & meaty. -Churros: this was amazing!! Churro was so crispy & delicious. Perfectly sweet & nicely accompanied by chocolate drizzle & icecream. A must order, in my opinion. -kids hamburger & fries: nothing special as expected for a tex mex place, but my son LOVED it, which is what matters :) Overall, it's a great spot! Hospitality is unmatched. Everyone is so friendly. Prices are GREAT & portions are generous. We will certainly be back.

I had a green chile omelette and it was delicious. I think it was pulled pork in green chile sauce. The sauce tasted like green chiles, I loved it. It was served by clearly unprocessed potatoes with cheese. It was great. I plan to continue coming here after church.

I had previously tried their Tuscan oil as well which was also very good and on the mild side. They have so many options and I found Emily to be very helpful in walking me through the variety!

Right on the corner of Grant & Church street in the M&T Bank building. They have a wide variety of different types of oils from Spain, Portugal and Greece. You pair them with different flavors of vinegar and viola...you've got custom blended! I met and talked with Cameron who is a former engineer. He seemed excited about the way the business was growing. They offer a military discount and also offer a frequent buyer card. Easy access and free parking! These are great options if you want to eat healthy. Also some great gift ideas for those who want to eat healthy and like something unique and original.

The price point (145/165) is not deserved for what is served. I didn't want to leave a bad review but I didn't want people that actually go to fine dining establishments to waist their money. To be a little more specific on the food, everything was either too salty, disproportioned, frozen(deserts) , stale( bruschetta and the tuna tartar cone) or just not cooked well. I wish this place well, I will not be back. And I just want the young servers to know that their customer service was great, they were very polite and friendly.

The minute we walked in we were seated early and the staff was so friendly and welcoming immediately and the ambiance is very warm and chic. Multiple employees gave us friendly greetings. The Chef's tasting was tastefully prepared and there were some additional items not on the menu. The Japanese milk bread was delicious too! I really loved the rockfish and the Braised short rib. Each course was beautifully presented and the seasoning and flavors were perfectly balanced. We were really impressed. The chef came out to introduce himself and it was nice to be able to compliment him in person. He's been there just over a month, I think, and he is doing a phenomenal job! This is such a welcome experience out west in the south. I highly recommend checking it out. It was about as good as Clarity in Vienna or 2941 in Falls Church. Dress was business casual and definitely a nicer place for more of a date night or special occasion. We wouldn't bring our children here. We were full at the end but not stuffed. Comfortably satisfied in our bellies for sure!
