    Cute restaurant. Reuben sandwich was tasty. We went for lunch and we had to ask for our check.

    Farm to table restaurant. Very well executed and a nice cosy atmosphere. Run by young people who clearly are passionate. A small business that need to be supported, we will definitely come back !

    Food portions were small for pricing. They were out of most things on a Saturday night with an already limited menu. Food was good that we did have. Server did not have a handle on the menu. Drinks were good, prior brunch experience was much better. Will not return for dinner.

    The table wasn’t ready at the time of our reservation, then the staff seemed to forget about us. When we were finally led to a table there was a large spill on the floor so we waited for it to be mopped. Service was slow, but the food was fantastic

    Scratchboard continues to be our favorite restaurant in downtown Arlington. The food is exquisite. The staff is always exceptional. When combined with al fresco dining, there isn't a better place to have a meal.
