    Another great meal at Founding Farmers! Living in Manassas, I only get a chance to eat there every couple of months, but it's always a great meal. If you haven't tried one of the Founding Farmers restaurants, I highly recommend it.

    Portions are small. A bowl of soup is less than a cup of coffee

    Went for brunch, they had run out of a lot of the food options so they wait was long. There did not seem to be anyone ensuring that the food options were cooked and available in a timely manner. The food was ok, but a bit bland. They rationed out the fried shrimp like they were counting them in the kitchen. Overall, it was ok but not worth the price and the wait.

    We have enjoyed this restaurant a number of times in the past. I am getting less and less satisfied each time we go. Check in when we arrived was a unwelcoming and efficient process. Certainly not what you expect when you arrive at a nice restaurant. We had a nice booth in the bar area. Our server was Ernest enough, but very difficult to understand as obviously English was not his first language. Our entrées were good, however, having been ordering the same thing for a few years, I have noticed a decline in the presentation and amount of food provided. Similarly, when we left the restaurant, I asked the person at the host stand about Validation And was pointed to a self-serve computer in the corner. No thanks for coming just efficient.
