I only recently discovered this Jollibee's that's just off Little River Turnpike. It's actually…read morebeen here three years now. My first memory of Jollibee's, a Filipino-based chain, was from Southcenter in Seattle, where I discovered their very good fried chicken. The Seattle location was wildly popular, and so is this Alexandria outlet. So practically speaking, due to the popularity, it may take some time for your order to be prepared. Be patient! The kiosks help with getting your order in, but when I used the kiosk, it errored out when I tried to order a fountain Pepsi. That's OK, I'd rather have Coke anyway, which they do not have at Jollibee's. Even though chicken is Jollibee's specialty, I wanted to try the Angus Cheeseburger. I also ordered an Ube pie. The burger was pretty good. The bun was great and so were the toppings. But unfortunately, the meat was salty as all get out. I don't know if that was a one-off experience or that's how they do their burgers. I have very fond recollections of Ube ice cream in the Filipino halo-halo dessert, so I had high hopes for Jollibee's Ube pie. It was nice that they heat their Ube pies. The crust is very good. But the Ube filling was disappointing. It had zilch Ube flavor and was kinda runny. Still, I'm glad there's a Jollibee's here in NoVA (there's also one in Chantilly).

Looking for a burger on Yelp near Van Dorn, Club Sandwich popped up with an eye-popping 4+ stars…read more So I gave these guys a try. I entered at high noon on a weekday and was surprised that there was only one other customer. All the other tables were empty. The aromatic scent of pho filled air. Did they also serve pho at Club Sandwich (I didn't check the menu) besides burgers and sandwiches? Or was the aroma from Pho 95 two doors down? I decided what I wanted to order, but there was a problem. There was nobody at the counter. I waited maybe four minutes to see if anybody from the back would come out to take my order. But nobody came out. I was hungry and didn't want to wait any longer, so I just left. Club Sandwich could at least have a bell on their counter to get somebody's attention if they aren't going to man the counter.

Apparently the Sardi's in College Park is better?…read more This Alexandria one left much to be desired. Everytime I eat here my chicken is either too dry or the skin is too flabby... not crispy at all. The Yucca and other sides are the only thing that save this place. Their sauces (which are pre-packaged) taste so odd... almost like they belong on a salad and not chicken. If you grew up eating Peruvian chicken then you know exactly how you want your sauces to taste like and Sardi's sauce really miss the mark. They have a huge fan base, regardless of what I've said here; maybe they love it due to nostalgia, but the Alexandria location is not it!!

the General Washington Dr location of Flavor Hive is now an actual store unit and not just a truck…read more There is no inside seating, and there are a few outdoor tables. Most of this operation appears to be take-out. We placed a pickup order online and it was waiting for us by the time we showed up. We ordered two small chicken bowls and one "feast mode". The "feast mode" size was actually challenging for three people to finish! The "hive sauce" tastes like a honey mustard with maybe mayo? It's pretty good. I really wish Flavor Hive would have additional toppings - just cucumber tomato onion cilantro etc are quite minimal. Would be awesome if they could add something like beet salad or beans! The value at this place is excellent compared to the numerous other rice / slop bowl places in the area. It is a lot of food. This place went viral on social media for a reason, and it lives up to the hype.

This review is for the Alexandria location of Flavor Hive off of General Washington Dr…read more On 1/28/26, after 8:00 PM, we placed two separate orders. Only one order (check #88) was provided at pickup. The second order (check #87) was never given to us, despite being paid for. When I called the phone number listed on both the paid receipt and from Google, I did not reach the restaurant. Instead, the call was answered by a male individual phone comes up from Vienna and did not appear to be affiliated with the restaurant staff on-site. This alone is unacceptable. The individual who answered was rude, dismissive, and unprofessional. Multiple witnesses overheard the conversation, which has been documented. We were not initially seeking a refund -- only verification of the missing order and whether it could still be picked up. There was zero effort to assist, no accountability, and no urgency to resolve the issue. This level of disorganization and lack of customer service is unacceptable for any restaurant. If Flavor Hive continues to operate this way -- including routing customer calls to unprofessional third parties -- it will absolutely damage the business and its reputation.

They have a great selection of Mexican food, and it's pretty authentic. A new item on the menu are the "enchiladas suizas" I hope those are here to stay because they were absolutely amazing!!! The tomatillo sauce was delicious and the portion was pretty big! The rest of the family had the torta de chilaquiles, they were out of asada so my hubby got the barbacoa, kids had the gringa with pastor and we all shared the nachos. Everything was delicious! We were sad that they were out of conchas, will have to come back to try them. The only thing I didn't love was that the music was a bit too loud, or maybe I'm getting old lol! But overall this place is great!

My husband got fried cactus tacos and I forgot the other tacos he got. I really liked the topping bar they have in the restaurant you don't see that often. It was all fresh too. Tacos were great. The huevos rancheros was ok, the sauce was too much though and it took over the whole meal. The gentleman working the counter was very soft spoken and we had to ask him to repeat himself several times. He seemed like he was annoyed about that, but he needs to talk louder I have dog ears and I could barely hear him lol. Overall I'd try again, but I wouldn't go out of my way my husband works right across the street which is why we came.

It doesn't make sense that the kitchen can move that quickly, yet a simple drink takes that long. The employee handling drinks was just walking around in circles and didn't seem focused on actually filling orders. If someone can't manage something as basic as pouring a soda in a timely manner, they probably shouldn't be in that position. I hope management works on improving efficiency up front, because the food speed was great -- the drink service just didn't match it.

They had some good soulful music playing in the background, and it gave off a real welcoming, at-home type of vibe. I believe the owner took my order, and broke everything down for me, which I appreciated. I ordered the fish and shrimp. The fish was very good and well-seasoned. The shrimp were jumbo, fried golden, and had a lot of flavor. Portions were solid -- I didn't even finish everything in one sitting and had some left for the next day. They also had a frozen fruit punched lol. That was a nice touch and fit the whole vibe of the place. Not a sitting area but this is a place you call your order in before you get there and take it back to the house. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience. If I'm back in the area, I would definitely come back and grab another plate. If you're looking for some good seafood (and more), this is a spot worth checking out.

It's carry-out only and located on the top of mini hill with some auto repair shops surrounding it. Parking was a bit stressful, but the promise of good food made it worth it. The menu was pretty straightforward, and we got our food after a short wait. DINNER: WHITING - 20 + two sides: mac & cheese, coleslaw The fried whiting fish was thin, but perfectly crispy (even after a 20 minute car ride) and well-seasoned. Each bite was flavorful. The mac & cheese actually tasted 3D, unlike the bland, powdered cheese that is used at most places. It was on the thicker and chunkier side, the more I ate, the more addictive it got. The coleslaw was very refreshing and not too creamy. The portions were large, and my friend and I were full after sharing the platter. BREAD PUDDING - 4 This was fine, but not out of the ordinary. Probably wouldn't get it again. Overall, this is a hidden gem that is worth going to. I was worried the fried foods and heavier sides would irritate my stomach's sensitivity, but none of that happened here! Will definitely be back for other entrees and sides!
