About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Lively
  • Great for brunch
We are not just a restaurant, but an institution in Arlington. The first floor of our restored historic property houses an inviting bar and lounge that remains vibrant all hours of the day. Our upstairs dining room offers professional service, a warm ambiance, and a menu featuring rustic, modern American cuisine. We are devoted to in-house production: we bake all of our own bread and pastas, sausages, and desserts. Our beverage program features creative specialty cocktails, a diverse wine list, and a great selection of premium draft and bottled beer. We are known for our unlimited small plates brunch on the weekend and late night dancing Friday through Sunday. Liberty To-Go offers a separate carry-out entrance on Irving Street where wood-fired pizzas, house-made pastas, fresh salads and other specialties are offered for enjoyment at home.

    This is the overall best restaurant for food and beverages in Arlington. Lived in Arlington for ten years and now live in Fairfax. Our group orders ranged from Salads to French Dips and Salmon. Not only was everything delicious but the wait staff was wonderful. My wife turned to me during the meal and said "We need to get down here more often." I agree.

    Food was great, service was quick. We had the brunch buffet. Wish they would bring the fried chicken back. But everything else was delicious.

    Had a great meal with 4 of us upstairs. Were lucky to be in a quiet corner and enjoyed our food and drinks without being rushed. Our server Mason made sure to check in on us regularly and that everything was to our liking.

    We live in the neighborhood and tend to dine here a few times a week. Food is consistently good as is the service. We have never ever had a bad meal or experience at Liberty Tavern!
