Nelson, the owner, was so kind to serve us breakfast Sunday morning, and let me tell you, this gem is not so hidden! They had plenty of loyal customer's coming in who knew what they wanted without even looking at the menu! Needless to say, they serve good food and with lots of love. This is definitely a neighborhood favorite! If you need a laid-back breakfast that is good and still has fantastic drinks, I highly recommend coming here.
We tried:
Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita 8/10 super spicy, and I obviously cannot handle my spice
Bellini 10/10 an absolute refreshing delight
Bloody Mary - 8/10 also spicy but if you're into that, by all means please get this!
Red Sangria - 8/10 this was actually a really refreshing sangria and I'm not a heavy wine drinker! I was pleasantly surprised.
Country chicken and gravy 8/10 - what you would expect delicious for sure though
Smoked Salmon Benedict 9/10 - they used a full Salmon filet, and honestly, I've never seen this before! It added a whole different elevation and texture to a classic
French toast and berries - 10/10 the addition of the granola was delightful! It added a crunch that was so good for such a heavy dish!
Used to go to two chefs in Arlington for gyros but the quality has gone down. Went here with a friend and it’s the best gyro I’ve had in the dmv. The meat was juicy and flavorful, and they really hook it up with a good amount. Not only that, but the pizza is very good too (and I’m very picky regarding pizza in this area). The sauce, cheese, and crust were very good, which is often hard to find in this area. The music was also great!
It's a solid pizza, chewy crust, average thickness, good sauce, toppings stay put although they don't use a lot of toppings.
There aren't many local family run restaurants left. This is a favorite go to when we're in the area. Nothing fancy, but it's great to support a local family with their restaurant.
Be aware there is now a three percent credit card fee as of October 2023. They snuck that in on me. Don’t know if it’s listed on the menu as I’m a regular and don’t generally see a menu.
An excellent little family restaurant with tasty food. You could tell that most of the diners were regulars, and that's always a good sign.
The service was friendly and responsive, the price was great for the area, and the lamb was tender and full of flavor.
I’ve been coming to this restaurant with my family since they originally opened in 1988. The food & atmosphere is always perfect & never disappoints! I have yet to find another restaurant that can compete with their gyro sandwich or platter! It is phenomenal & a one-of-a-kind experience. A must go to if you're near the DMV!
Family-owned, strip-mall gem of a restaurant. Feels like a diner, menu plates from classic Greek dishes, good old American cheeseburgers, and delicious homemade soups. The vintage style interior deco may take you back to the 70’s era but once you take a seat, leave your iPhone off – leisurely take it all in.
Very good food and good service. People are really nice. Salmon benedict is awesome.
The lasagna here had a sweetness that made it so different from anyone else's. Absolutely the best pasta dishes I've had in the DMV metro area. Tried veal too, what a delicacy. We even ordered dinner at lunch time, and we're properly accommodated graciously.The black forest cake and my personal favorite baklava are a must-try. I am a baklava connoisseur and let me tell you, Pan Am restaurant has the best, stretching as far west as Minnesota.
