    This was our 1st time eating here and the food was delicious. Our margaritas were excellent & our server took great care of us. It’s a convenient place to eat prior to a show at Capital One Hall.

    This was our first experience at Eddie V's and it did not disappoint. We were celebrating a milestone birthday, and the restaurant rose to the occasion! The cocktails, food and wine were all delicious, as was the lovely dessert. What a delicious way to celebrate! The restaurant even let us borrow an umbrella and called to say a guest had forgotten her purse. Well done, Eddie V's!

    2941 is not only one of the best restaurants in Falls Church, it is one of the best restaurants in the DMV. The food and service are both always beyond compare and last night was no exception. The Tuna Tartare appetizer is wonderful and our main courses--Ribeye and Duck--were both cooked to perfection. The only minor suggestion I would have relates to my Caesar Salad appetizer. It was more or less a deconstructed salad. While it was visually appealing and delicious, I prefer my salads (including Caesar) to be mixed. Our server (Julio) and his staff were great and the restaurant took pains to recognize our anniversary with a special menu and dessert. Thank you for a wonderful evening.
