Best Restaurants for Groups in Lorton

After hearing such positive feedback about Afghan Bistro I decided to try it . I made a reservation to ensure I would get seating for3 people . I found the atmosphere to be quite pleasing , quiet , peaceful & understated . It is in an area where there is a heavy industrial vibe , do not let that deterr you from going inside , once inside , you`ll find this location is not a big space . Personally , I like a smaller, less noisy , envirnoment when dining out , so I can carry on a conversation without screaming across the table . The food server greeted us when we arrived ,then escorted us to our seats . He was very hospitiable & very knowledgeable about the selections on the menu . He asked if we had any special requests or if we needed any special care in food prep ( gluten or lactose allergies , if anyone was vegan or vegetarian etc ) . He made some suggestions on the menu that proved to be beneficial.. The food came out quickly after ordering it and it was delicious . This is defintely not your typical Kabob place , the selections on the menu are much more unique , not only did it taste amazing ,the presentation was beautiful . The portions are enough to share if one wanted to , but we opted for separate entrees so we could take have the leftovers . Overall I was impressed with the quality , the service, the prices were reasonable and the " vibe " of the place was great ...you can even get a glass of wine or a cocktail if desired . Great little place ! this location is 1 of 4 locations , I`d like to try them all it was so good .

Lovely Thanksgiving lunch. I had to work in the hospital that evening so this delicious blend of traditional and gourmet made Thanksgiving special for my little family. Of course I'd rather be with my extended family at someone's home but under the circumstances this was a lovely consolation.

Food was so amazingly good, from the roasted cauliflower to the tender and flavorful steak. The service was friendly and helpful, modifying the chef's menu for our vegetarian with shellfish allergy guest. And the overall enviroment was warm, welcoming, and cozy. My only complaint is that the experience is so good that no one wants to leave their tables! Like a great family dinner. Thank you

Filomena does not disappoint! Always perfectly cooked pasta, chicken and seafood. The place is already decorated for Christmas which makes it quite an experience with a polar bear dressed in his best and Santa not to mention all the streamers and stuff hanging from the ceiling. No place like it. Only downside is they fill the place up and it gets tight and warm down in that basement. A must for any trip to DC and Georgetown!

Wow, as advertised, great host, server, manager!!!! The food we ordered was all superb!!! Crab cake to start, wife ordered the meatloaf, I had the short rib stroganoff. We had reservations and thankful we thought ahead, the 1330 lunch rush was visible on the weekend. I ordered a bloody mary, only portion of the meal which I thought lacked attention. Manager passed by the table and was very nice!!! Thank you for the Carrot cake, it was phenomenal. Highly would recommend and glad we came!!!
