I wasn't super impressed by how our food came out, I had a total mixup with my entree - which was resolved quickly - but even with the correct salad, I was thrown off by how sparse the Artie's kitchen is compared to the other restaurants in the chain. I got the Mango Chicken salad and had the equivalent of 1 chicken tender cut up in the salad. It's odd to pay the price of a salad with a full serving of protein, but then to be kept severely lacking. If you do come here, just steer clear of the Mango chicken salad. Great location, I appreciated how there's sufficient parking available. I wouldn't choose to come back

Before dining in at Lazy Dog, we had only ever ordered takeout - and every single time, we had to…read moreget the hot honey feta dip because it's genuinely addicting. Finally coming in for lunch did not disappoint. We tried their "3 Bites & Small Plates" deal for $25, and it was absolutely worth it. We went with the feta dip (of course), cheddar cheese curds, and tikka masala meatballs. For a non-Indian restaurant, the tikka masala was surprisingly on point - really flavorful and well-balanced. The cheese curds were super satisfying, especially dipped into the sauces they come with. But the star of the show is still the hot honey feta dip. The bread is lightly charred, giving it a subtle smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with the warm, salty, gooey feta and sweet honey. It's one of those dishes you think about after you leave. For drinks, I had the Wild Blueberry Lemon Drop - very refreshing and definitely on the stronger side (it is a martini, so no complaints). We also tried the watermelon margarita - pro tip: ask for it with tajin, it makes a huge difference. For entrées, we got the lunch grilled cheese and tomato soup, which was exactly what you'd hope for - comforting and classic. We added candied bacon to the grilled cheese and didn't regret it at all. We also had the quarter pound burger, which tasted fresh and really hit the spot. The fries were perfect - crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. And yes - I loved the hot honey feta dip so much that I actually ordered it as my entrée too, no regrets at all. The staff was welcoming and helpful, and the overall vibe inside is very chill and lowkey. We sat outside by the fireplace, and even with the weather warming up, it was surprisingly comfortable with the fans going. Definitely recommend - whether you're dining in or ordering out, you can't go wrong here!

It's on Main Street.

We had a lovely table for six, enjoyed that it was round and we could all have a nice conversation while dining. Our food was outstanding as well. A few recommendations of appetizers including the fried green tomatoes with pimento cheese that we all loved. They are known for their homemade pastas and offered a half size portion so you could try both- couldn't pick a favorite, each different and delicious! One of guests had fish which they loved and another had the ribeye and enjoyed it as well. Don't leave without sharing a dessert- the salted honey ice cream that topped the carrot cake was beyond perfect! Can't wait to celebrate another event there!

If you're hesitant about it being gamey, don't be! It had a perfect balance of sweetness from the caramelized onions and a distinct, smoky flavor from being torched. For the main, I had the Pan Seared Wild Petrale Sole, which was beautifully cooked and fresh. My friend loved the chicken, and we ended the night sharing a delicious dessert. Bonus: Parking was a breeze--we found a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant. We will definitely be back!

Top-tip: ask for just a little heat/spice to be added to the soup when you order. Service is awesome and conversational. Ask for Joe, who will likely be behind the bar. I also recommend sitting at the bar if it's just you or you're a friend. The bar has a more social vibe. Parking, this is downtown City of Fairfax, so parking is plentiful, and while in the neighborhood, checkout the City of Fairfax Regional Library; it's fantastic.

We walked in and the service was very friendly which was nice. The menu items looked promising so we ordered a couple of dishes but I have to say the price to proportion was not the best. The food was okay and the portion for the food was so much smaller than somewhere with the same dish and pricing. I got the beef noodle soup and it was pretty small but tasted pretty good.
