- JJacqueVirginia •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoAs always, we had an amazing experience. Tony was our server, and he was phenomenal! Mo, was also tag teaming with Tony, and he was just as great! What makes us keep coming back is how they are very accommodating with children. My daughter asked for a kids steak, and at the time, they were sold out of the filet, and she was upset. But, shortly after, Tony surprised her and was able to get her some steak, even if it wasn’t the filet. Best dining experience when you have children. Food is always delicious and great customer experience. ☺️More infoEddie V's - Tysons CornerPrice: Very Expensive• Seafood• Tysons Corner / McLean•4.8
