4316 Markham St Annandale, VA 22003 (703) 813-8181 A&J Restaurant is a fantastic find tucked away in the midst of Annandale. Alas, the photo I took with my phone is somewhat sub-par. What I was attempting to showcase was the seven awards A&J has won from the Washington Post regarding being a “best bargain/value restaurant.” [...]
2310 Columbia Pike Arlington, VA BEST DAMN GREASY SPOON EVER. But DO NOT tell anyone… this is my spot yo. There are actually 2 locations, which I only just found out about – but I frequent the one at 2310 Columbia Pike in Arlington between Clarendon and the Pentagon. The location is admittedly out of [...]
4711 Lee Hwy Arlington, VA 22207 I’m not quite sure why I’ve never written about Metro 29 before, as it is a place I’ve frequented more times than I can count. The appeal for me is what I consider to be some of the best breakfast food this side of the Mississippi, served in such [...]
Location: 2919 Columbia Pike Arlington, VA 22204 You may remember a previous review I wrote of our favorite sushi place, Matuba. Bangkok 54 happens to be right next door, and is a Thai restaurant weve visited on more than on occasion. In stark contrast to the laid back, simple atmosphere of Matuba, Bangkok 54 offers [...]
Location: 2500 Columbia Pike Arlington, VA 22204 As it seems to happen so often, Friday rolled around and Annie and I desired Thai food. For some reason, this genre has become somewhat of a staple for relaxed, beginning of the weekend type meals. One of Annie’s friends had recommended we try an established Thai restaurant [...]
Location: 2232 W. Main St. Richmond, VA 23220 Our recent trip to Urban Thai was rather spontaneous. We were in the mood for some Thai food, but didnt want to make a repeat visit to somewhere we had already visited. As we approached the front facade of the restaurant (which is dominated by a covered, [...]
Location: 1101 South Joyce St. Pentagon Row Arlington, VA, 22202 Recently, Annie and I decided to check out Lebanese Taverna. I hadnt read any formal reviews, but several of our friends had been there and gave it a thumbs up. I find Lebanese to be one of those hit or miss food genres. Prepared too [...]
Location: 2915 Columbia Pike Arlington, VA 22204 On Wednesday, Annie and I were in the mood for something nice and quick, without sacrificing quality. We decided to visit one of our favorite sushi places in the area, Matuba. Matuba is a wonderful Japanese sushi restaurant, that offers quality sushi, tempura and teriyaki in a very [...]
If you will recall, I mentioned ordering the Pistachio Chocolate cheescake to go, and promptly paid my check and left the restaurant. I have since tried aforementioned cheesecake, and I must say — it was absolutely delectible. The cheesecake itself was not as rich as some chocolate cheesecakes I have tried before, and quite frankly [...]
Location: 911 King St. Alexandria, VA 22314 September 3rd was an excellent reprise from the disgusting humidity and vapid rain that had been tormenting the entire Eastern seaboard for days. As the sun began to descend, the air took on that magical temperature that makes driving with the windows down and the sunroof open not [...]
