All good - great service. Celebrated my friends party there. Awesome time.
We had a great brunch experience at Makers Union. The food and drinks were all excellent as was the service. Ambiance on the patio was perfect. Will most definitely return!
My wife and I had dinner at 7pm on a Saturday, our first time at the restaurant. We dined outdoors, which was pleasant enough even with cars stopped constantly despite no parking on that side of the street. (There was also an obnoxious drunk woman talking way too loud at the next table, but that's always a risk when dining out.) The signature cocktails were nothing to write home about. The calamari was excellent but covered in an aioli I didn't care for. The server brought some more with a marinara sauce. My wife's crabcakes were good. My hangar steak, ordered medium rare, was way overdone.
Great spot for food and drinks. Service is always good.
Sam at the bar was great. She was perfectly attentive and friendly. Your hostess Joanna was very nice too.
Great food, great beer, great staff.
What more do you need?
We had to ask another waiter for food and drinks and were told he would get our waitress. When she finally came to our table, she told us it was last call for the kitchen. Our reservation was at 8:15. We dine here often and although the food and drinks have always been great, tonight’s service was terrible.
My server Olivia was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, extremely courteous, responsive and witty. She is a gem.
Sat outside and had a great evening. Our server was awesome!! (Alex)!
We had a great brunch here over the weekend! All of our food was so good, and we loved the bottomless mimosas! Everyone we encountered who worked there was so friendly!
Went here for Easter brunch. The hostesses and server were wonderful. The food was delicious!! My wife had the fried chicken and waffles, and I had the Maker’s Union Breakfast. We loved them both, though my wife wanted more syrup (we did not ask for more). Of the 3 fried eggs I got was 2 were over cooked but I managed with the one that was done right.
We’ll be returning for sure. One of the better brunches we’ve had in this area.
Wonderful as usual!
First time at this restaurant and it was a wonderful experience! Food was excellent and service was outstanding. I had steak and my wife had fish and both were perfectly done. Service was fast. We will definitely be back!
Poor service and the brunch menu was below average.
Maker's Union was a great date night spot, the ambiance was great, modern with trendy dishes but not overpriced. I also informed them that we were celebrating one of my wife's recent accomplishments for her Masters degree and they kindly surprised us with a dessert that had congratulations written on it! The service was fantastic from the moment we stepped in and their covid protocols made the dinner feel safe.
Excellent dishes. I wish the menu changed more often.
First time for both of us. Drinks were quality. We went to Jackson’s for their last call and those drinks were to sharp.
Made feel very welcome despite our very late reservation due to late evening arrival to Reston. Lovely staff, friendly and warm.
Food was wonderful. Especially the Mac and Cheese and the burger!
Will definitely be back.
Thanks
Very good experience. The service was outstanding and the food delicious. I will be back, this now one of my favs.
Our second time here for brunch and service was great and food was very tasty!
Nice outdoor ambience on the patio with the heaters on, tables spaced accordingly. Food and cocktails were tasty.
Cute place to eat. Indoor/outdoor seating. Great food
Having a reservation meant nothing. They gave away our table even though we got there 10 minutes before our reservation. They told us it will be a few minutes and it took over 45 minutes. We were standing on the street waiting for 45 minutes with no one checking on us or explaining the situation. It was the most awkward situation and frankly embarrassing. Even though our waitress was nice, the place is very disorganized. Food came with before we got silvers and eventually we had to go get it ourselves because the food was getting cold. Never again
Portions, good quality, and service were awesome!! We'll totally be back for brunch. The only thing I didn't care for was paying a flat rate for bottomless mimosas then paying 25¢ for every refill.
If you care about quality of service don’t go to this restaurant. I understand the pandemic has made staffing difficult but we waited over 10 minutes for our first glass of water and 20 minutes for our simple cocktails to make it to the table.
After taking our food order we never saw our server again until it was time to pay the tab. The chicken tenders, And fried chicken sandwich was excellent but the Mac and cheese was cold.
I don’t see my self coming back to this restaurant in the future, service is absolutely terrible.
Food cold and tasteless. Jb
Great food. Drinks needed a little help but all else great.
Great food
Food and service was outstanding. Drink menu creative and reasonably priced. This is definitely a neighborhood gem.
Felt covid safe and had delicious food. Great service as well!
Very attentive staff, Covid protocol was in place, and the food was very good.
Slight miscommunication with the waitress, not a big deal and they made it right for us. The lamb chops were outstanding, the crispy Brussels Sprouts were a great recommendation! Will be back!
Food was excellent and the service was great.
The lamb chops were perfectly prepared.
We will be returning soon.
Nice outdoor area. Very, very sweet and attentive waitress. I enjoyed the steak salad. The place is really cute inside when I am ready to dine inside. Easy validated parking.
Great food, prompt service. They do a good job of serving outdoors in colder temperatures.
It was freezing in the restaurant, service was poor, food was just okay, ambiance was just so so.
My friend and I's experience at Maker's Union was excellent! All COVID-19 protocols with social distancing and sanitation were followed to a tee and the food was amazing. We had the Crab Cake Benedict and the Avocado Toast as well as the bottomless mimosas, which came in multiple flavors and kept flowing. Service was attentive and very helpful.
Awesome place , great appetizers & super service! Definitely a to go place!
Always delicious - staff is ALWAYS pleasant and the drinks are always amazing!
The only downside was the booth we sat in was so tight the table was jammed in my gut and I’m a skinny guy. My wife was miserable. But everything else was outstanding. The server was outstanding.
