Arlington​のオーガニックフードが食べられるお店

Longtime patron writing first review here. Lyon Hall consistently turns out a great menu and is my number one choice in the Arlington/DC area to take friends and clients for dining and drinks. Cocktails are always on point (I had a Boulevardier recently that was spot on; the Paper Plane to Paris is also a tasty version of the original) and their wine/beer list is approachable. Surprisingly, there were no sour beers on menu, so perhaps they have removed them for now (?). My date wanted a sour beer but ended up with the cider, which was tasty and perfectly dry, just what she wanted. This visit I ordered the 3-cheese board and pretzel appetizers and both were tasty: pretzel was large enough to share for sure and arrives with three spreads; the cheese board was well-presented and not fussy: sour cherries, candied nuts, delish toast points...a great value and solid starter. For entrees, the duck breast and roasted chicken were ordered, both cooked perfectly and were the perfect portion size for a hungry diner (although not overly large; if you are famished, perhaps an appetizer or filling up on their incredible bread would be advisable). In recent visits, I've ordered the wild boar ragu; the risotto; the pork schnitzel...all very Fall-y, warm and well spiced. Ambience is modern-professional but not cold and at times can be a bit noisy (especially in the bar area). Staff is friendly: Dana came by our table to ensure that everything was up to par and wished my date a happy birthday. Our server was friendly, provided good suggestions and immediately checked when unsure of an item (the sour beer) and its availability. I'd highly recommend Lyon Hall for dining, drinks in a classy environment or their catering. In my 15 years in Arlington, they've never missed.

Service was outstanding food was ok but the set up not good need to open second floor - the noise was so loud you can’t hear Accross the table

Opaline is a great choice if you want a lively after-work spot to meet. Tile floor and otherwise hard surfaces make the noise level pretty high. Bit of an own goal on my part for making a reservation to meet my sister and her husband for dinner here, as the restaurant wasn't really suited to a quiet evening of conversation. (It says "Bar" right there in the name, so I guess Reading is Fundamental.) We actually considered going somewhere else but glad we stayed because the food and service were both quite good. A fresh take on Caesar salad, a delicious just-right pappardelle perfect for a cold evening and a lovely dark chocolate cake for dessert.

Food was incredible and service was great!! Loved the Brussel sprouts appetizer, mushroom orzo and the steak for entrees, and the chocolate mousse and sorbet for dessert was amazing! Great place for a nice dinner or date night!

Mele rivals all top rated restaurants. Small plate of trout and asparagus featured perfectly cooked items with delicious, delicate, savory, light and creamy sauce with ginger on the side. My husband’s steak was superb and our first-time-at-Mele guests were delighted with their four cheese ravioli, with special kudos to the spinach on top. Carlos is a lovely, skilled waiter, our long time favorite. Mele wins the prize.
