Visited for lunch solo. And I sat inside at the bar area. I had a flavorful watermelon martini. And enjoyed the bang bang shrimp for an appetizer. I ordered there special blackened salmon pasta, which was not the best. The flavor was non existent and watery. However, the waiter was attentive. I know next time not to order that specific item. read more

My wife and I were looking to wait out the evening rush hour traffic, so we thought we'd have dinner at Bonefish Grill in Kingstown. We had never eaten there, but heard many good things about it. We were greeted by our server, Jeff. He was delightful and engaging and was very knowledgeable about his menu. Since it was our first time eating at Bonefish, he was able to make suggestions based on our food preferences, which turned out to be spot on. Our dining experience began with bread and pesto. The bread was soft inside, and the pesto was very flavorful. It may, though, have been the saltiness part of our dinner. We moved on to drinks, my wife had a glass of Pinot Grigio, and I had a Wild Berry Truly. As an appetizer, we had Maryland-style Crab Cakes. They were incredible. My wife has always been an aficionado/snob when it comes to crab cakes crab cakes, and she loved them. There was very little filler, almost entirely crab meat. Best we've had in a long time. For dinner, my wife had the Rockefeller Butterfish. Our server said that it almost melts in your mouth, and he was right. The fish was topped with spinach and lump crabmeat. My wife reported that the silkiness of the fish helped bring out the flavor of the crab. The green beans she had could have been cooked a little bit more. I had Lilly's Chicken. This was a very moist chicken topped with goat cheese, spinach, and artichoke hearts in a nice sauce. Very much enjoyed it. Chicken was cooked perfectly. We loved our dinner experience. The service, as I mentioned above, was exemplary. We will go there again. read more

Came here with my family for my birthday on a Monday night and it was a lovely time! Our waiter (wished I remembered his name) was FANTABULOUS. He was very accommodating and had great energy! My family and I shared the bang banh shrimp as the appetizer, and it was delicious. Sweet, savory, and creamy. Delicious! The complimentary bread with olive oil/pesto was also very yummy. The bread was crispy and paired well with the dip. I ordered the grill salmon with a side of potatoes au gratin and broccoli. There were sauces that you can get on the side for the fish, and I didnt really like the taste of any of them. I sticked with the classic lemon squeeze! Also, I highly recommend the potatoes au gratin as side if you LOVE cheese and potatoes. For my birthday, the waiter gave us a complimentary warm brownie with ice cream. A sweet way to end the dinner! The only con was that our family did not finish the bang bang shrimp appetizer and the waiter took it without us asking if we were still working on it or not. read more

We absolutely love Bonefish Grill. From seating to service and checking out we had no problems. Visited here for my birthday and we had a splendid time. The atmosphere is very busy but there weren't any problems with our food. Which was perfect, the firecracker shrimp was a favorite. read more

Visited this location on a Tuesday evening, fairly light traffic. Not crowded at all. I was seated upon arrival. The food came out pretty fast, the salmon was cooked well-done per request. Food was a 8/10 little under-seasoned but the lemon butter added flavor. The restaurant itself was freezing cold, it was a warm day but it's hard to enjoy your food when it's freezing. I definitely recommend bringing a jacket. My only complaints are the constant swatting of gnats away from the table not, and only seeing my waiter one time. I had to constantly bother the host, and other waiters for everything I needed. Pineapple martini pretty good read more

I love this place so much I came to have dinner alone. I'm not much for going out alone as I have a wonderful partner who I just adore and love to hang out with. But it was such a beautiful day, I wanted to get out and get my nails repaired and car washed. Some of my fav little shopping spots are nearby so I said this is a perfect place to chill and eat my favs. As you can see I could barely wait to take the picture before I sucked down that delicious sangria. The bar back put a little too much ice in it this time but it's all good. I'm driving home alone and it's getting a little dark. Anyway, I having the cod imperial with kung Pao Brussels and Jasmine rice. My waiter is a young energetic gentleman with the cutest little demeanor. Not feeling weird at all dining alone at this table for two under a light and studying for an upcoming exam. The light is really low and the music is okay, I enjoy the food here and the service/wait staff are cool. The drinks are nice and it's a vibe. Faux lit candle on the table. The warm crusty French bread olive oil with a dollop of pesto is clutch. Food came out hot and I'm about to crush. Oh, can't forget to mention the app of bang bang shrimp. They're very tasty, hot and juicy. Welp my food is here so bye for now. read more

Recommended: Yes, seafood & chicken are recommended. Cost: Reasonable. Staff: Very good, attentive. Chefs: Extremely good at seasoning and cooking, imho. First - Yes - a facemasked hostesses greets those arriving, and both inside and outside dining options are available. If reserving a seat, consider weather/temperature conditions, as some seating is in sunlit areas, with umbrella shade provided, and some limited off sun seating available. For me, it was take out for Father's day (I'm Dad!), and my order was placed online. I had the seasonal salmon over spinach & rice with shrimp topping - seeing as this was a Father's Day from my family. The food was prepared as we like it (Kudos to the chefs!) and delivered up front at the assigned arrival time. My own salmon was seasoned very well, and the correct level of "done-ness." I had to take one point off of the review, as the take out container for the fish and chips my daughter had - was a plastic (RECYCLABLE!) one, that resulted in the crispy fish ending up a bit steamed and soft. My daughter still enjoyed it, but I think this would have been much better in a take out form with butcher paper (aka newsprint). Something to consider, Chefs! Spouse's chicken Marsala smelled great, and she said it was "as good as ever." But, I have to chide the staff on the limited dessert options. Essentially, just a couple of cookies options or a layer cake. We decided to pass on Dessert. I "get it" that ice cream isn't a take out option, but would something like a Key Lime pie be that far out of bounds to consider? Will I be back? Well, heck yeah. The food was great (mostly), and the price was reasonable ($20/person for take out) and the staff were polite and prompt. The hostess could have gone over my order with me, but it was basically correct - so "it's all good." read more

My husband and I had a lovely dinner at Bonefish Grill. The service was amazing. Our waiter should be in the server hall of game. He was friendly, knowledgeable and quick to deliver our refills and meal courses. 5 star service. We decided to try the Dine and Discover dinner for 2. It came with bang bang shrimp, salad and choice of 2 entrees. We were in the same page that evening. We both chose the house salad and the Thermidor Gnocchi. The salad was refreshing with the house citrus herb vinaigrette. The Thermidor gnocchi was ah-mah-zing! We sat in silence for a bit as we dive into the pillowy gnocchi with pieces of lobster in a velvety sauce. It was a vacation in a bowl. We finished the meal with a pumpkin cremé brûlée. It was nice. It wasn't too heavy so it was a perfect end to the meal. Why cook tonight, when a lovely meal awaits you? read more

Service from staff was exceptional - it was a large pickup order for a holiday party which I called in, and manager Amara and another staff member were outstanding to work with, including a customization for a dietary restriction. Pickup was a breeze, and manager Charlie and the rest of the team were also incredible. Truly superior customer service all around. Food was exactly as ordered and all attendees loved it. read more

I LOVE Bonefish Grill!!! You will not be disappointed in their food! My go to is the Crispy Cod Fish sliders! I crave them, that is how good it is lol. The only thing is that it is only offered at HH and not on their regular menu. I also tried their Lobster dinner with the mashed potatoes and broccoli...yum!!! Picture is attached. I would like to give a shout out and a thank you to both Winta and the manager Robert. Both of them were super friendly and accommodating and and made me really happy. Customer service is important to me and they both went above and beyond. Bonefish is located in Kingstowne on the corner of the strip. There is plenty of surface parking right across the restaurant. Def going more than I should be lol read more

Our server Kellan was amazing. Very attentive. He kept us updated on the status of our order and checked in often to ensure everything was to our liking. He refilled drinks as needed. Aside from the asparagus being a bit over cooked, everything else was well prepared and tasted really good. read more

I took my 13 year old to Bonefish Grill to celebrate his birthday. He received five star service from the moment we stepped through the revolving door. The food was delicious, the service was absolutely amazing and everything was above and beyond what we expected. My son wants to return for every birthday! It was such a happy and memorable dining experience for our family and this was mostly due to the wonderful staff. read more

Bonefish Grill is a good restaurant. The service and the food are both really good. When it comes to a seafood restaurant, this place is good, but I wouldn't consider this to be our favorite and we wouldn't necessarily go out of our way to come here, but we had a great time. My wife and I have come a couple times now and we really enjoy the bang bang shrimp tacos. Each bite is flavorful and these tacos are way better than the other fish tacos they serve, not that the other fish tacos are bad, it just the bang bang shrimp tacos are excellent. They also serve fresh bread at each table, which we really like too. read more

We are enjoying the fact we can finally go outside and gently mingle with the public, but for my Grubbing Guru Buddy and I, returning to the cozy aroma of our favorite restaurants is the ultimate satisfaction. We love checking out "out of town" places, but this familiar restaurant sign caught our attention. BoneFish Grill (BFG) in Springfield, Virginia, was our choice, while visiting family in Northern Virginia. This BFG was just as clean, just as inviting and the food was just as great as our BFG back home. We started out by sharing a bowl of Prince Edward Island Mussels Josephine, which tasted incredible. The waitstaff forgot to bring us the toasted bread, but quickly returned with several thick slices. I had the fish and chips and my Grubbing Buddy had steak and crab cake. We finished the afternoon with a couple of martinis. Overall, it was great being out and about, but even better is enjoying a meal you loved having at home. read more

Went here today for lunch for the first time in years and remembered why we didn't return for so long. Service was very slow - had to ask twice for refills or extra tartar sauce. Server asked if we wanted bread and that took forever to arrive as well. My grilled fish was overcooked, flavorless, and dried out, barely edible and the lemon caper butter sauce has zero flavor. The fish and chips was ok but not the best we've had. Bloody Mary was not good either. We had to ask for a brunch menu as we read on line they served brunch (small memu) but the oven was down and most items were not available, though nothing really sounded appealing. Now we remember why we didn't return for so long at least. read more

A friend and I had lunch around 2pm on Saturday. The restaurant was NOT busy but getting anyone's attention was a challenge. My friend arrived first and asked for water, which came 20 minutes later. After lunch we asked for hot tea. When it was brought, I asked for sugar (why wasn't this at the table??). I was told it was coming. Five minutes I flagged another server and asked for sugar. It never came. This is NOT my idea of service! read more

We ordered two orders of crab cakes from the Alexandria location. (Through doordash) The consistency was not like regular crab cakes so put them in the oven to cook a bit more. While it was cooking I called the store to explain my dissatisfaction with our meal. They said sorry and offered us ONE free crab cake to be honored next time we are in the store. Fast forward a few hours, we got food poisoning!! No way will we ever go to this business again. And flippant way I was treated by the manager was not OK. Here's a photo of the yuck in my oven as I tried to cook it. I should have known better but we were starving! Should have gone to McDonalds! read more

Bonefish Grill - Nasty crab cakes from BoneFish in Alexandria, VA - Seafood Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I'm sorry to say my experience at this Bonefish Grill was very disappointing. Let me first say that the meal itself, the food, was next level; amazing! Bravo! The issue was the service. I'm a single woman and I sat at the bar. I felt ignored most of time I sat there. The bar wasn't THAT busy on a Wednesday night around 6PM. It seemed like Matt likes to pay attention to his bro buddies. Guys came in after me and got served before my order was even taking. My meal came before I had silverware with which to eat it. If it hadn't been for the fact that Matt was having a conversation with a guy to my left about working out at the gym and me giving him the evil eye because I had been sitting with an empty glass of wine for awhile that I think he even bothered to ask if I wanted another glass. I used to tend bar and wait tables and typically tip 25%. Out of protest I tipped 15%. I was really pissed. Several times when I needed attention Matt was shooting the breeze with guys at the end of the bar. The food was so good, I'll probably be back, but hopefully Matt isn't serving the bar. read more

Came here for Mothers Day, the restaurant has really gone down. The bang bang shrimp was extra fishy smelling, lukewarm and way too spicy. The crab cake was also very fishy and the spinach had too much garlic. My dad didn't finish his fish and chips. He said it wasn't hot or flavorful. The creme brûlée wasn't set correctly and the garnish was just thrown on top like an after thought. A few hours, later my stomach is turning. The tables are too close together and tight for my taste. The waiter was not especially attentive. He under filled the water and wasted olive oil over everything on the table. Each time I visit...... this place gets worst. The only good thing, is you usually won't have to wait with a reservation and the parking is free. The restrooms has always been fairly clean. This place isn't cozy or romantic. This has become like a red lobsters in my opinion. Food isn't consistent, I won't be back. Update. 3/1/19 I went back......on someone else's dime. We were seated fairly quickly with reservations. The service given by Jorge was superb. The food was very good. I think it's worth a shot if you want a reasonably priced seafood dinner. They have weekly specials. We decided to try something different and ordered a mango, shrimp, salsa topped guacamole with warm chips. It was tasty, and different. Our drinks and entrees came quickly. I order two lobster tails with lemon butter, spinach and upgraded max and cheese. The lobster tails were tender and steamed well. I did not care for the lemon butter, too distracting. I asked for plain, clarified butter which complimented the tails better imo. My spinach was steaming hot, as well as my bacon topped mac and cheese. All my food was delicious and well portioned. My companion had the crab cake and sirloin. The crab cake was average. And, the made the steak medium instead of medium well. He said it was tough. Overall, Bonefish Grill is hit or miss. I did receive 20 dollars off because it was my 4th visit.....part of their rewards program. So, appetizers, 2 entrees with sides and a Shirley temple came to 55 with tax no tip. Not bad. read more

Great staff. Chanel was very friendly and on the ball. The food was good too and loved my pineapple martini.

Ok, here's how to do Bonefish Grill the right way: + Get their giftcards (buy $50 and get $10 around the holidays) + Take advantage of their Tuesday night specials where you get 3 courses for less than some of their single entree items If you do the two above, you will get an excellent deal. Otherwise, the food can be pricey for what it is. Of course, I do enjoy their food. + You can't go wrong with their Bang Bang Shrimp. Excellent size and so good. + Their salmon and meat dishes are all good as well. But seriously, get the Tuesday night 3 course meal special! So much more worth it! read more

Service was terrible. Food was barely edible. It took 25 minutes for the waitress to come to our table, and we had to go ask the hostess to send her over. The drinks took at least 30 minutes to come to the table. read more

Bonefish finds itself in a weird location of the family suburbs of Kingstowne, and the teenager run movie theater plaza, but serves food great for both parties. Service is friendly here, and you can get all the bread you want before you eat. The bang bang shrimp is the dish you'll hear over and over again, because well, it's good. Their fish comes in many varieties, and most are good, depending on what type you want. The daily catch is also pretty legit --- not just a marketing ploy, and is often the star item on the menu. Overall great experience and glad to have this location near home. read more

I came here on a Wednesday night for dinner with my sisters and niece. GIRL'S NIGHT! I have heard about the famous deal with the Bang Bang Shrimp appetizer ($6) all day on Wednesday! The place was busy at 7pm, we waited maybe 5 mins but quickly seated. We ordered a ton of appetizers (Bang Bang Shrimp, Calamari, Josephine Mussels, Imperial Dip, and Saucy Shrimp). For entrees we ordered the imperial cod, surf and turf entree (steak and crab cake), and the gnocchi special with shrimp and chunks of lobsters. We also ordered the bacon Mac and Cheese a la carte. Overall, the food was good. I highly recommend the Imperial Cod entree, it was SOOOOO GOOD. Buttery and flavorful, stuffed with shrimp and scallops. We got it with mashed potatoes and spinach. I was a little disappointed that the sides were small, mainly the mashed potatoes (size of a ice cream scooper). The surf and turf was alright, nothing spectacular, the crab cake was the littlest crab cake I have ever seen. It was a little too wet in terms of texture. I highly recommend the gnocchi dish, the sauce was Amaze-BALL. Packed with flavorful and generous with the seafood portions. Also order the Bang Bang Shrimp! It's super popular and tasty with a little heat. Calamari is a classic app, love it. I was very disappointed with the Josephine's Mussel that was covered with buttery lemon basil herb sauce, which ideally would be good. But it was TOO SWEET. Like candy sweet. It was weird. We had to return the dish because we could not eat if. Out waitress, Jainaba was super nice about it and comped it from our check. And you cannot go wrong with the imperial dip- I thought it was so good, taste better with warm bread versus chips. We also ended our night with the flourless brownies, covered with hazelnuts and vanilla ice cream. OMG IT WAS THE BEST. Not overly sweet but chocolate flavored. The hazelnut was a good contrast and crunch factor into the dessert. Overall, I was pleased with my experience. The staff was quick and efficient. Jainaba provides a great customer service experience for us! read more

We dined with my husband at Bonefish Alexandria for dinner and it was a memorable experience! We started with Smoked old fashioned and the seasonal watermelon martini (that comes with a watermelon cube so cute ) ! We ordered the Seafood Boil for 2 and it tasted amazing and packed with crab, mussels, shrimp , corn and potatoes so yummy!! we also got the Keywest Ahi Tuna with mac and cheese and the creamiest mashed potatoes(and it was better than the seafood boil) Tuna was perfectly cooked to medium. Ended with a lava cake and seasonal strawberry shortcake. Lava cake was my fav, with oozing chocolate when we cut through. The service was amazing and definitely recommend it and will be back! read more

The server did not mention happy hour and I ordered a 9 oz pour for house chard. I looked online and it said happy hour house wine was $6. I was charged $12.45 for 9oz. I ordered salmon and it was so dry. Broccoli was limp and overcooked. I watched as the same server delivered bread to the tables that ordered after me. It was never offered to me. Not sure of the disconnect between the wait staff to the customer and out of the kitchen but this was terrible. Don't waste your money here. read more

Can't go wrong with Bonefish Grill! Great spot for a date night. Portions were great and the food was warm. Jose, our server, was on top of it too! Fair warning though, $4 up charge for 5 pieces of asparagus....yikes! Broccoli tasted much better and was a bigger portion with no up charge so I suggest going that route. read more

*********updated review****** I always had a good experience dinning at Bonefish grill. This time, it was so great. We were here for brunch. I realized they overcooked my omelet when i couldnt even cut it. So i told my server, Russel, he was very apologetic and took it back right away. He told me they would make a new one and the meantime, he bought me a bowl of soup while waiting. Russel was so friendly, he bought us extra bread with the dipping sauce at the end. Because he knew my mom loved it. Even thought we encountered an issue, his exceptional service definitely had makeup for it. read more

Went to Bonefish Grill for my mother's birthday. We had a party of 8 the food was great. But the air condition was on blast, it was too cold to stay in the restaurant. One lady was singled out because her appetizer and food was late. Everyone else was eating except for this one lady that did not receive her food until late. When they first got there and was seated they told the waitress that it was cold and the waitress said they would turn down the air, but apparently it seemed like it was not done. I am not satisfied and wont be back. The bonefish grill in Alexandria, VA read more

My family and I had reservations far in advance to take advantage of reserving a table outside, because I'm immune suppressed. We had always liked their food. But when we came, there was mass confusion about the staff--who will serve these people? We had several people come over to look at us, and then saunter away. we had no place settings when we were told to sit down. somehow, after many different servers passing back and forth without doing anything, we got water, and silverware. someone gave us a menu, and we ordered. A server said there were no specials, so we ordered from the menu. It turned out that there WAS a Specials Menu and we got to look at it, but it was too late. I ordered a virgin pina colada, which was delightful. I drank a couple of ounces of it when the bottom of the glass dropped off and the whole drink fell down on me! Help? Several servers stood in the doorway looking bewildered while I stood up and said, MY GLASS BROKE! That was it. my daughter asked to close down the account and we walked across the street to a Thai restaurant. Dont bother with this Bonefish Grill! read more

I would give this place a 3.5 The complimentary bread with pesto and olive oil was great! I ordered the Scallops and shrimp with the garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach. The meal was also good but there wasn't anything about it that made me say wow. They have plenty of different seafood options and a good selection for people who might want something other than fish. I was able to sample the other dishes of the people with me and those were also good, but not spectacular.This is a great place for a date night or special occasion and I'd come back again to have nice grilled seafood read more

Bonefish Grill is open and offers carry out and delivery special options during the pandemic. Locations are beginning to open at limited capacity and hours, but we play it safe with contactless pick up or delivery. This review is about the carry out and delivery services (delivery is by door dash). We recommend carry out family package with Lily's Chicken (the one with goat cheese and artichokes)! It tastes better the first day (chicken is always more tender when not reheated-- just the natural state of things) but even the leftovers are tolerable provided you don't overdo it in the microwave and inadvertently rubberize the chicken like I did. During this time, bonefish grill is offering several specials. Family bundles starting at $30 are available which include salad, fresh bread and pesto, and house baked cookies. There are options from the land and from the sea and some combinations of both surf and turf for the whole crew. From the land, you can choose from four different chicken options, including: with grilled chicken with goat cheese and artichoke hearts on spinach, grilled chicken tacos with the fixings, with grilled chicken and traditional sides, or chicken marsala with prosciutto and mushrooms. Land options run anywhere from $30 (for grilled chicken) to $36 (most others). From the sea, you can choose from bang bang (spicy) shrimp tacos with all the fixings, grilled shrimp, grilled salmon with traditional sides, and grilled mahi-mahi. Each family package from the sea runs about $40. There are two combination Family packages: mahi-mahi and shrimp with one side, salad, bread, and cookies for $50 and the grilled chicken with goat cheese and artichokes paired with shrimp, salad, bread and cookies for $46. read more

We chose this location because parking is not an issue as it's in a strip mall. No waiting and from what I can see bar seating is limited still. Our server Chaz was very accommodating and attentive! I'm forever dieting but I have to eat my fill of the pesto and bread . I always have the mussels and bang bang shrimp and no matter what location I go to - it's always perfect. The mussels are in a light wine broth perfect for dipping bread into not as garlicky as I would like but still good. We had the butter fish/ cod imperial and veggies all cooked to perfection. read more
