Best Romantic Restaurants in Merrifield

I made the reservation for the wrong night. We showed up Thursday (instead of Friday) and they were able to take us. It was our grandson’s 1st birthday. The staff could not have been nicer especially our waiter. I wish I could remember his name. He was younger and had dark hair. He was wonderful. All the food was delicious. We had the chicken nachos which were amazing and the queso was flavorful. The chips were light and crisp. The fajitas were delicious and the chicken quesadillas were just right. A few of us had the burritos and my shredded beef burrito was the best I ever had. The refried beans have pork in them and were so tasty. We will definitely be back because of the food and service.

We luckily picked a slow time, 6:00 PM on Wednesday. Service was prompt and courteous. Everything came on time and as requested. My chicken Milanese was done to perfection. The garlic bread was fresh and just toasted. My wife’s gnocchi with mushrooms was incredible. My picky teenage daughter ate every bit of her spaghetti and even the meatballs. Our guest ate all his spaghetti and chicken. Everything was made from scratch; nothing tasted premade.

Great service. I had the boneless half chicken that was moist tender and flavorful. It came with Greek green beans.

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.

We greatly appreciated the consideration of the staff. The walk to our table for two, both of us elderly and using canes, was difficult. The young host was apologetic and, unbidden, took the price of our soft drinks off the bill. We waited a bit long for our meals, but to be fair, it appeared that many dinners arrived at once. The food, a smash burger, and the salmon en croute, was very good.
