Always a great time at open road

As much as I love the food and the friendly staff, unfortunately we were sat by a large party (about 15 people) that was not following the restaurants mask policy and were walking around without a mask on when they left the table. When we let management know they told us they hadn’t seen this behavior and argued with us rather than reprimand the group.

Great experience and ambiance, food was ok. Hit and miss on the food. More traditional bar food is best option.

Always a great experience at open road merrifield.

The server/bartender wasn’t really attentive. It was hard to get his attention and he didn’t really come by to the table during the time my friend and I was there. I think overall he came by twice without us having to get his attention. He didn’t give us utensils even after we ordered. The food was good but the service didn’t match the food quality.

Enjoyed sitting outside in the tent. Even when an evening thunderstorm passed though, we were comfortable. The ruby mule and lettuce wraps were delish! Busy venue but Covid precautions seemed in place.

Lacey was a great waitress.

Always great

Excellent food, great service, and wonderful atmosphere!

Food was fresh and hot. Waiter was very attentive. Nice cocktails and beer.

Delicious cobb salad wraps!! My friend loved her steak tacos. Enjoyed dining out on thier patio. Very pleased with the whole experience.

Very good food and friendly service as always!!

Always a perfect dining experience.Food & service & protocols & social distancing were excellent.

The food was quite good, but there was an approximately 20-minute span from when the server brought our drinks and then happened to pass by our table again. During that time, we stared at our sodas which had no carbonation in them hoping we could flag her down to change them out for us. After we successfully got her attention and fixed the drink issue, it was another 10-15 minutes before we saw anyone again and finally got our food.

Again, We all enjoyed our food, but I’m just not a fan of waiting 30+ minutes to get it when the restaurant wasn’t even half full.

Good social distance in the outdoor dining, however there would be intermediate times of a heat breeze (thought it was from their overhead heat lamps). It was not. Hot and sticky the day we ate there. The fans were on but not all working. Food is very good in taste and good size portions.

Great experience! Food was delicious and felt comfortable with social distancing.

Was fantastic as always. I love the fish tacos, best I have found in the Northern VA area. My wife loves the burgers and the roadhouse wings. All goes well with the Tropic Thunder IPA. Will be back soon!

It was incredibly loud. And food was not as good as usual.

Amazing restaurant with great service. I will definitely be going back soon.

The table right next to us had 12 people sitting shoulder to shoulder, which is not allowed under the current rules!

This is a classic place to eat in Falls Church, VA. My wife and I love eating here. Order the pop corn chicken. Its a winner!!!!

One of our favorite places. We eat here weekly!

Great experience as always with open road. One of my favorite places.

Open Road is one of our favorite local spots. Consistently good food and service. Great spot for a date night, family dinner or happy hour.

Covid safe!!! Felt comfortable/safe for entire dining experience and food was amaxinf

Beautiful patio with delicious food and great service. My only complaint: the draft beer was warm.

Food and drinks were delicious! Service was uncharacteristically unfriendly.

Pleasant experience. Great food, attentive service and good music.

Great food and a relaxing atmosphere
Plenty of room to spread out and still enjoy yourself

Excellent as usual! Really adapted well to COVID. AND the best bacon around!

Great food and service! Lots of parking and love the vodka mojito!!

Friendly and attentive service. The food was very fresh and delicious!

We love this place. Food is diverse, delicious & service excellent. So glad they are open outside

The patio seating was bar table only and the chairs were uncomfortable, but they were happy to move us inside and it was great from there.

Our first dinner out since the virus started! Great overall experience.

doing a great job with COVID guidelines. social distancing, wearing masks/gloves, etc.

Our first trip to a restaurant since COVID. Excellent experience. Super clean. Super friendly!!

The service and food is always outstanding!

Small plates are great!!

The hostess said there was no handicap tables yet there were seven available. Kept trying to get us to sit at a high top which is impossible for my mom. Maybe teach the hostess better in how to handle handicap situations. As the tables filled later no one was handicap that came in so I am still confused how there was nothing available for 25 min when we first arrived. When I made a reservation in open table we got seated right away. Doesn’t make a lot of sense.
