The food and drinks were very good. I was just very disappointed that there was a worm on one of the oysters.. Otherwise, I would have given it a 5.
We came during happy hour and sat outside and it was lovely. We ordered 12 grilled oysters, lobster mac, steak tartare, salmon salad, and steak salad, and all of them were great. I had two commonwealth mules to drink, and they were also wonderful. We will definitely be back!
Excellent food. Excellent and friendly service. Very enjoyable experience overall.
Sat outside for brunch on Easter Sunday, which was glorious. We started with the fried green tomatoes. I'd recommend taking these off the menu -- they were bland and tasteless; even the pimento cheese had only a very mild flavor.
In general, the starter menu needs a make-over -- there is just nothing exciting on it.
The short rib benedict was delicious and came with a generous and perfectly dressed side salad. My companion had the burger, which she said was delicious; although the fries were a bit limp.
We go to Copperwood often; LOVE the oysters and several other items on the menu; but the menu could use a little jazzing up.
Service is always excellent as is the food. Loved sitting outside, but inside is nice as well given the big windows.
Great food and service!
The wait staff were phenomenal, rotating between themselves to ensure coverage. That plus the great food and well made cocktails made for an outstanding dinning experience. Highly recommend.
We ordered the Tomahawk Ribeye (for the second to time) because it was a birthday dinner.
Very much enjoy our visits to Copperwood. Thanks to Frances for taking good care of us.
I’ve always loved Copperwood and their amazing menu. I appreciate how items change with the seasons and how they utilize local food and beverage products. During this visit we were seated on their outdoor patio as we had two small dogs with us. It was a great vibe all around and we look forward to coming back again very soon.
After waiting 10 minutes without staff greeting us we had to ask for our waiter/waitress. Then for our meal they forgot to put in one of our orders and when they hurriedly made it the steak that was supposed to be medium was rare. By time they made another the rest of us had finished eating our whole meal and just had to box the item. Very displeased.
Staff seemed rushed and out of sorts. Food was good but nothing special.
Beat bathrooms for sex 😉
Scott and Sandra were great!
Overall good not sure if it was an off day, but the salt in the food was crazy....
I did mention it as constructive criticism.
I would still go back agsin
The food, drinks and service was great. I will definitely go back.
Hands down, best menu and meal in south Arlington
Good food and service. Love the oyster happy hour!
The quality of food has gone down SIGNIFICANTLY since you first opened. Our fried green tomatoes were rock hard and the fried goat cheese was cold inside. These looked like pre-made from frozen apps. Our salmon salads were all spinach - no arugula as the menu states. The food was average - not special. I felt like I was at a mediocre chain restaurant. And we specifically selected copper wood over other places and came all the way from Leesburg to meet friends. This was my second sub-par experience at Copperwood in the last six months. I let the first one pass, but it clearly is the new normal. So sad.
Everything was absolutely outstanding - the food, the service, the cocktails (AMAZING), the ambiance, etc. We will 1000% be back.
We ordered the Venison and Ribeye, both prepared medium rare. Both cuts of meat were very chewy. I couldn't even digest the Venison. I chewed the Venison so much I had to take it out my mouth. My friend steak although looked perfect in appearance (medium rare), the steak was very tough and chewy. The restaurant Manager did replace our meals. So that was nice. The baked Brie was amazingly delish!
Copperwood is very good if you like taverns. Varied menu and the food is always good. Staff is also very good.
Excellent food and service. I'll be back again soon!
Marcus our server was great - so friendly and accommodating! Food and beverages were amazing! It was so nice to eat out again - it's been a long time and I felt safe despite covid. LOVED the music and ambiance too!! 5 Stars!
The food and service were great! The Best choice for Valentine's Day dinner.
Simply best burger around. Service and drinks fantastic, but visit for the burger alone is worth it.
The rabbit was great!
Great service
Copperwood Tavern was great! The food wasn't anything crazy, but the atmosphere, cocktails, and overall vibe was really fun. Definitely going to go back.
Great food and atmosphere.
Great brunch menu!
Very tasty and great staff. Always a good spot for a Friday date night
Absolutely fantastic lobster Benedict. Waitress was a delight and attentive to our needs. Will go again. Thank you.
Saturday Brunch. I must recommend the Pear Mimosa. I had at least 2. The Orange sherbet was amazing too! I also recommend the shrimp and grits. The fried green tomatoes are great (I don’t like pimento cheese so I asked them to leave it off.) The steak and the chicken were a bit dry. 😳 Service was good. The ambiance was great. We will return.
The food was not served hot enough, it was lukewarm temperature.
Overall great brunch spot! Our server was incredibly nice and appropriately attentive. You gotta try their beef jerky Bloody Mary!
Had a blast. Great service and food was amazing
The NYE menu was amazing! What as great deal for the amount of food, choices, and the food was all delicious!
Great evening outdoor dining experience! Even in the cold!
Good wine, good food, great service. What more could you ask for?
