Brought my ‘fresh off the boat’ Bulgarian darling here for brunch after we worked up an appetite hiking all over Arlington Nat’l cemetery. The Ambar folks happily and generously brought him copious amounts of authentic Balkan delicacies to satiate him. Our flight of rakia went a long way to alleviate his homesickness for Bulgarian “moonshine” treats. Shoutout to manager Valentine and server Camilla for pampering us so nicely! Will have to try Ambar’s other locations and meals some time.😋

We drove all the way from South Riding looking for the best sushi without going into DC, and Yume Sushi nailed it. We tried 4 of the chef specialties and 2 rolls and all of it was excellent. Our server, Pete, made great recommendations as well. Sit at the sushi counter if you’re a party of 2. We’ll definitely be back!

Great brunch menu and wonderful outdoor space. When the temperatures a comfortable, the outdoor option is better than indoor as a full house indoors can make it more difficult to have a conversation due to the decibel level inside.

I brought my best friend who was visiting from out of state to FF since I have raved about past dining experiences that I have had there. From the initial greeting when we checked in, brought to the booth and throughout the duration of our meal, the entire staff was exemplary especially our waitress, Unity. Unity took the time to answer questions my friend had for each course, since she was not familiar with the menu as well as being pescatarian. My friend loved the crab & shrimp risotto that Unity had suggested as Unity told my friend that it was her personal favorite on the menu. My friend wholeheartedly agrees and we were both pleased with what we chose for a shared appetizer (crab & artichoke dip), crab & shrimp risotto & the Louie Cobb combo (shrimp & crab) for entrees, and finally for dessert, a slice of the key lime pie and a to go box of the Butta-Finga candies. The food and service at the Tysons location is always consistently stellar and I have yet to be disappointed. Thank you!

Made a reservation for Saturday brunch outdoor seating. Wait person and server were friendly and polite; wait person was timely in stopping by to check check on quality/satisfaction and to take re-orders, and empty plates were removed quickly. Small bites were varied and labeled well for vegan, veg and gluten free. Small plate servings were generous and tasty, as was the Bloody Mary. This was our second brunch, and we'll be back again.
