   The only reason we passed on today's special - smoked beef with white cheddar on Ruthie's milk bread - is because our party of four has long-lasting favorites on the regular lunch menu. Three out of four of us ordered the hearty grain salad ( a meal in itself) with added protein. This was our fourth meal at Ruthie's All-Day in the past seven days - a testament to the fact that Ruthie's is our go-to restaurant for all occasions.

   The service was completely lacking. Our waitress could’ve cared less if we were there.

   Great meal. Split corn bread as an appetizer then had steak and eggs for lunch. Delicious. One of the best casual restaurants in Arlington.

   This is a charming place to eat. We were on the patio. The hash dish was fine not great. Inside was very nosy - outside perfect

   We have many favorites on the Ruthie's All-Day dinner menu, but we really enjoy the specials that Chef Matt Hill adds to the all-star fare. Tonight's special side was chopped broccoli with a flavorful kick and tonight's entree special was excellent pan seared scallops with a spaetzel, pea and light brown butter sauce. We love the seafood specials that occur during the warm weather months, and co-owner Todd Salvadore hinted that Chesapeake soft shell crabs will be on the menu soon. Just one more reason to return!

   Excellent food and attentive service. Loved seeing the wood fire in the open kitchen. We had the special scallop dinner since we wanted something lighter than meat and it was delicious. The biscuits are a must and we even ordered a second time in lieu of dessert!

   The Black Bean and Quinoa Burger is a bit loose for my taste. As a result, it is hard to hold without part of the "burger" flopping down. If there is any way to add strength to this burger, it would greatly improve its desireabilty.

   Too loud. Could not have conversations. Included special occasion in the reservation and no mention was made. Service felt rushed. Food was solid as always.

   Honestly a decent place! The food was good, but the busyness of the restaurant was little much. It’s definitely a decently priced fancy brunch. During brunch, it’s NOT a place for people who are hard of hearing or impatient; the restaurant was BUSY and crowded around noon. The parking is also a little difficult because of the busyness, but NoVA residents used to the traffic would be able to navigate it. If I had out of town people visiting it would not be my first place of choice but a contender.
