My colleagues and I come here for corporate teambuilding lunches, birthday lunches and happy hours. It's not unusual for us to spend many hours and a large amount of money at this establishment. The area surrounding my place of work does not have many nice dining options in my opinion, so I'm thankful for this restaurant. My go to items on the menu: Crispy Calamari Cheesecake Spring Rolls Firecracker Shrimp Pappardelle Bolognese Crispy Fish Sandwich Go to cocktail is the Pomegranate Martini. Highly recommend if you like sweeter cocktails. read more

Burtons Grill & Bar - New American Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

This was a random stop for us and I didn't know what to expect. It was lunch time and I wanted some American food. Not what I expected but it will suit specific people looking for their offerings. Burton's Grill is your typical all American restaurant but focuses on serving all the dietary needs of Americans with allergies or not. The place looks new, the kind of place you wanna wear clean clothes at a minimum and not look slovenly. Outside sitting, full large bar, sports on several TVs above the center of the bar, and a lot of servers milling around here. Great lighting, not loud but not quiet either, just chill. We were starved so our eyes ate. Brunch was still being served till 3pm on Saturdays and Sundays so I grabbed the French Toast and the Steak and Eggs. My friend had allergies with gluten so she went with a salmon and some super salad dish. She was happy as all the dishes had markers for gluten free, food free, soul free, etc. Very helpful for all allergy infused humans. Great waitress btw. Fantastic service. Food came after some time, we requested for everything to come out on time. Steak and egg was okay but I'd go with the prime rib next time. The steak came out sliced with 2 poached eggs on top. The hash on the side was on point. Salmon okay too. Salad was okay but we should have added a protein on top. A little dry on dressing maybe but we could have requested more so that's on us. On the other hand, the French toast had me scratching my head. It was cubed challah bread but eggs was 0, zero, nada eggs on it. I thought I was eating croutons which would have gone great with the super salad dish thinking about it now. The French toast really bunched up my undies, French toast is my favorite breakfast thing you see. They explained it was prepped that way for allergy sake due to the egg. Well, I'm not allergic and never said I was, but my friend was but she wasn't eating my dish so why make it in this fashion. Overall, this experience was just okay. Nice environment and service but I realized how lucky I am not to be allergic cause if I have to eat French toast like this forever, I'm not sure what to do. Definitely not up to eating croutons with syrup. read more

We went all in on happy hour and tried almost everything on the menu (okay, except the tomato gratin ). And let me tell you -- everything was SO good! I ordered an espresso martini, but I'm not a fan of cold brew. I asked if they could make it with fresh espresso instead, and the bartender absolutely nailed it. Huge win for me! I love when a restaurant is willing to accommodate guests -- it really makes the experience feel personalized. Now, if I'm being honest, the service was a little hit or miss. This was my first visit and I came in excited, but our server wasn't the warmest. A few more smiles and a bit more welcoming energy would have gone a long way. I'm big on customer service, and it felt at times like we might've been more of an inconvenience than guests. That said, we still tipped 20% -- everyone has off days, and I believe in giving grace. Still, it's important to remember the guest experience matters. On a positive note, the manager, Manny, stopped by our table with a big smile and checked in on us. I love seeing hands-on management -- you don't always see that these days, and it definitely stood out in a good way. Prices were reasonable, and for a Tuesday evening, the place had a nice steady crowd -- not packed, but a great vibe with a solid turnout. Overall, great food and drinks, a few service tweaks away from being an even better experience! I'd definitely come back. read more

The food is OK. About the same as any other restaurant of this caliber. The pricing is a tad steep for the portion sizes. Parking isn't great, you have to park around back and it's a bit of a walk to the entrance. The service is always great though, with the staff often tag-teaming especially with large groups. read more

We've now been to the Sterling and Alexandria location and enjoyed both! It's the only place where we know there's a separate gluten free kitchen thats making delicious foods and they are super accommodating and that makes it even more desirable. They can make a lot of alterations and I've never gotten an eye-roll at my requests! I LOVE that they bring your martini or cosmo order to the table in a shaker and shake it for you- GAME CHANGER!!!!!!!! I had the Thai steak salad and it was excellent, the chocolate cake was tasty too- but I almost cried when I could order focaccia knowing it was gluten and dairy free ! A MUST when you go. The fact that they also have fried gluten free items is also unique so when you're missing those not very good for you cheat foods- but you have intolerances, this is your spot ! read more

From the minute my friend and I walked in, we were treated as if we were familiar to all. Smiles, suggestions, and respectful approach were constant throughout our stay. I am from Texas, have family in the Hayfield area, and look forward to eating here no less than once on every visit. Our waitress was fabulous, yet others also stopped by to assure we were well attended. And the food was extraordinary, from appetizer to dessert! Compliments and kudos to all! I do apologize for delayed entry and because of delay, I forgot names :( read more

Second visit in as many nights. We split the Short Rib, grilled cheese and the California Chicken sandwich. In my opinion, the California chicken sandwich was the better of the two. That sandwich had some pepper jack cheese on it some pesto which was banging. The picture of the short rib doesn't do it justice as this is really a French dip style sandwich. It was very good and each meal came with fries. read more

Went to Burtons Grill & Bar in Northern Virginia for a friend's 60th birthday. It was such a nice, chill atmosphere -- cozy, clean, and family-friendly. The wait staff was great, very friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The food was amazing! We tried a few different things -- the bag of donuts was delicious, and that little hint of lemon in the icing made them perfect. The General Tso cauliflower was surprisingly good -- crispy and full of flavor. The bread service was warm and fresh. Three of us had the short rib hash, and it was tender and hearty. We also ordered the Skillet French toast and the salmon, both really good. If I had to rate the dishes: Donuts - 10/10 Cauliflower - 10/10 Bread - 8/10 Short rib hash - 8/10 There wasn't a single bad thing to say about this place. Everything came out hot, fresh, and well-seasoned. Definitely a restaurant worth checking out -- there's something on the menu for everyone. read more

Service was excellent. They just needed to work on learning the menu to answer questions around how dishes are prepared. It was a bit freezing inside the restaurant, which was uncomfortable. The short rib grilled cheese was sloppy, tasty, but it wasn't my fave. The sweet potato fries were bomb however! The crispy soft crunch and they brought me honey for dipping which was so yum. I love how they make those fries. Best I've ever had! Pretty location and huge bar + dining space with lots of tvs for entertaining. Go, enjoy! read more

This place is our go to when we wanna go out to just listen to music and same time enjoy food. The service is always good. I enjoyed those chicken firecrackers. And their chicken wings thai is also really good. They used to have the lobster pasta but hhhhmmmm hope they bring those back. What i really like this place is-everytime i ask for something like change red sauce to white sauce. The server never said-they cannot but they check the kitchen too. Changing things out of the menu is bit to much but its worth asking. Thanks guys. read more

For my gluten free (GF) folks...this is a spot for you!!! I walked in and was immediately impressed when they asked (without prompting), "would you like the regular or gluten free menu?" I feel like that should be asked everywhere, lol! The food was absolutely delicious, and my waitress knew what she was talking about with regard to GF - this place is very clearly accommodating and knowledgable. In general, the ambiance was great - I think the attentiveness and understanding of my GF needs overshadowed everything though and was truly the best part. Will 1000% be back! read more

Enjoyed a celebration dinner at burtons on a weeknight. We made a reservation in advance and were glad we did so, it was surprisingly full for a Tuesday! We started with an appetizer, the tuna tar tar, which was incredible. For entrees we enjoyed the crab cakes with Parmesan truffle fries and the chicken risotto. I can't help get the crab cakes every time I visit a burtons location, they are just that good. It's full of crab meat, not fillers. Service was decent and they gave us a card for our celebration! We'll be back! read more

LOVE Burton's!! For my gluten free people--this is the spot to go. They have entire gluten free menu if requested, and everything on there is soooo good. They have a gluten free bread basket and the BEST gluten free cheesesteak for starters. Such a good menu, gluten free and regular, and the service is impeccable. Everyone is super friendly and ready to help you. Special shoutout to Jake who was so kind to us and made the best coffee! Very cute inside too, not too loud! 10/10 place. read more

The Maxx Burger at Burtons is a really good burger. Seasoned beef (yummy), melty cheese, crispy onion straws, and tangy sauce hits all the right spots. The bun holds up well without being too heavy, and every bite is packed with flavor. I paired it with fries for a satisfying and indulgent meal . If you're a burger lover, the Maxx Burger is definitely worth ordering! read more

I have been to Burtons a few times for work occasions. Located just off of telegraph rd Burtons has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Inside you'll be met by a hostess. Inside is a modern upscale sports bar interior where they have tables and a bar. I have been there a few times and have tried many things on the menu and generally everything comes out very well and delicious. Most recently I went and got the ribeye and sides (pictured). Unfortunately both the ribeye and mash potatoes weren't up to par with the rest of the food I've tried including appetizers. And I hate to say that the best thing on my plate that day was the broccoli. I hope this isn't an indication on there steaks are usually. I am more than happy to try Burtons again but maybe next time I'll choose something other than the ribeye. read more

The inside was a clean and chill sports bar vibe. The crab cakes tasted very good but were not completely warm upon arrival. The Lobster roll would've been very good except they added dill to the recipe. In my opinion dill seasoning should be nowhere near a lobster roll. Service was a bit slow as well. Just your standard American chain restaurant, no wow factor. read more

Josh the bartender makes the best drinks!! Attentive and cool too. Best service you'll get if you're at the bar.

I have mixed feelings about this place: probably a 3.5. It's a really nice restaurant at least the ambience. But the menu is kind of lacking. It's kind of a small menu and there's really no theme. Just random American fare. I honestly couldn't decide so I ended up getting an appetizer and a side which I think were both overpriced. The fries were pretty good, but I was a little underwhelmed by the buffalo chicken dip. It was baked at too high temperature because the oil separated. Honestly, not sure I'll be running back here. read more

Burton's Grill & Bar went beyond my greatest expectations. We just moved to the area and I notice it had excellent reviews the last time I checked it. We came here - our first time - spur of the moment this past Thursday. I was expecting a restaurant similar to Ruby Tuesday or Applebees, yet it was very different. I have worked in the food and customer service industry as a server, prep cook, and hostess in five star restaurants, so I am very wary of restaurants and food places in general - even five star restaurants. Superlative customer service, good hygiene in food preparation & cooking, and exceptionally delicious food are of the utmost importance to me. It appears Burton's staff & our server, Daniel, exceeded our expectations exponentially - more than any restaurant we have went to in this area. Prices are fair and well priced. We didn't eat the more expensive entrees on the menu, yet we will try them in the future especially when they serve my favorite soup, French onion soup. Ambience is industrial interior with exposed bricks and pipes. Very well designed. The seating area was clean. We had the whole area in a corner to ourselves and privacy. The ambience and food appeared too fancy and expensive to my husband. Yet we spent the same amount of money or more in other restaurants in this area. To me it was a more elevated and exceptional restaurant than the others in food quality and service. The kitchen of the restaurant and the food preparation from the staff were visible for everyone to see that the food was properly cooked. I prefer restaurants to be that way. The hostess (long hair attractive brunette lady ) and Daniel immediately served us, addressed any allergy or food issues we might have, and were very professional & courteous. They both made excellent recommendations for our lunch. Water in a glass carafe and glasses were presented to us on the table, and it was very refreshing. Daniel walked us through the menu meticulously and how the food was prepared fresh. His attention & answers to our questions and the food on the menu were well thought and addressed. I could tell he was knowledgeable and familiar with the menu.He even refilled my drink without having to be asked for a refill. It is rare to get such service from a server. There were many new and exciting appetizers and entrees we wanted to try. The sandwiches were both our preferences that day with a salad and parmesan truffle fries. We upgraded to Parmesan truffle fries, and I exchanged my French fries for a salad with a mustard vinaigrette. It cost 75 cents to upgrade the French fries and $3 extra for a big salad as a side. The bread appetizer came with the three different elements - butter & dipping sauces- herbed butter, pesto sauce, and a tapenade. It was delicious. Our lunch entrees came out with little wait time. Daniel made sure we had extra condiments and that our food met our satisfaction. We were accidentally served regular fries instead of the parmesan truffle fries. It was efficiently resolved in a timely manner. We loved our meals and made plans to come back in the future and bring family & friends there. Everything we couldn't eat was placed in containers and placed in a nice takeout bag. Daniel, also, informed us of the Burton's free app and walked me through in getting points & perks for our meals on the app. You get $25 for every $300 you spend in Burton's. He made sure to get us our points that day on the app. Overall, the finest dining experience we had so far in a restaurant and a place to have future dining experiences. Yes we had some hiccups yet they were resolved efficiently and no delays. It still did not detract the high quality of the ambience, food, and service. read more

I chose Burton's Grill to celebrate my graduation from nursing school with a Bachelor's degree. This celebration was especially meaningful as my mom passed away during my journey. Having been to Burton's several times before, I knew it would be the perfect spot for a large group. As always, the staff were welcoming, and the food was absolutely amazing. This was my first time coming for brunch and I am so glad I did. I will definitely be back. My family and friends loved their dishes. I had the Crab Cake Benedict, which was fantastic. Our waitress, Kaice, made our experience even better. She's clearly a seasoned pro and I really appreciated the thoughtful card she and rest of team signed and decorated for me. Having everything go smoothly, truly made the day much easier. A huge thank you to Kaice and the whole team for making this day so special! read more

Another 5 star review- last week as lunch guests. The atmosphere was great. The patio is fantastic.

The brunch burger was really good (and huge), and the waitress was lovely. -1 star though as the iced tea had an odd flavor (was quickly replaced and taken off the bill) and I asked for hash browns instead of fries, but still got fries.

My mom and I tried Burton's for lunch on a weekday. We arrived around 1 and it was still somewhat busy. It took awhile for us to be greeted, and then our server changed after we ordered but both were nice. I was disappointed there wasn't a lunch menu; a lot of the entrees seemed heavy for lunch. My mom had a burger and I had the maple sriracha wings. I really liked the flavor, although I couldn't taste the sriracha part. They were very meaty too and a good mix of drumsticks and wings. My mom, surprisingly, ate her entire burger and said it was tasty. We had to park near Whole Foods and walk which normally wouldn't matter but it was pouring rain this day. I'd return here again, but probably save it as a dinner place next time. read more

Great experience! Service was great. Our waitress was attentive and offered menu suggestions. Drinks were just ok. The Red sangria tasted like KoolAid, couldn't really taste the alcohol. The crab cake appetizer was delicious! Also enjoyed the pear/spinach salad that came on the side of it. The lobster and shrimp pasta was great. And a nice portion size. The chicken risotto was also really good. The tomatoes were cut in pretty big pieces. I got used to it, but wished they were smaller or Roma tomatoes. Ended with layer chocolate cake. Very chocolatey! So just be ready lol The only thing I didn't care for was that we were sat directly next to another table with many open tables in the immediate area. Overall I enjoyed the restaurant. I will be back and do recommend! read more

I have been here twice. The first time was during brunch which was awesome because I got to order a cappuccino. The second time I asked for one but they only served it during brunch. There was a special for couples the second time I was there. The food was good both times but I would probably order salmon or a burger for next time. And that seven-layer chocolate cake was delicious! I ordered it both times I went. There are a lot of seating options for small or big groups indoors and outside. It's also a great option for Sunday football! They have screens everywhere so you can watch it. The best part is that there are gluten-free options and they ask you if you have any allergies!! That was very mindful and very cutesy! Check them out! read more

This is a go-to for my family! One of us is gluten free and this place can make their entire menu gluten free. Additionally, all of the food and cocktails are amazing. Some of our favorites include the chicken Milanese, Maxx burger, Philly cheesesteak egg rolls, cauliflower bites, bread service, short rib anything, and the lychee martini. One note, on the brunch menu, the chicken and waffles is delicious but really heavy -- be warned. read more

Burtons is our go to for work celebrations. The food is always delicious. We ordered the buffalo chicken dip, the special soup of the day which was creamy lobster bisque, harvest bowl, Maxx Burger, and the dinner special filet medallions with carbonara pasta shells. All of it was amazing! I wish I took more photos but we were so busy chatting and eating. The harvest bowl looked AMAZING. Bright and fresh with broccoli and Brussels sprouts. I tried to make a reservation the morning of but there wasn't an availability to do so. We walked in at 6 o'clock for a table for 5. We didn't get seating until after 7 but the food and service is worth the wait. Our server was attentive and definitely patient. read more

Brought my team here for lunch after a big client presentation. It can be to find a place that offers something that appeals to everyone's taste, unfortunately for us, Burtons hit the mark on all fronts. I enjoyed the crab crusted haddock WAY more than I should have. I mean it was lick-the-plate-clean kinds of good. I have an unspoken rule where I don't eat crab cakes outside of the state of Maryland (way too many bad experiences!), but man do these folks know how to do a crab cake! Big lumps of crab perfectly cooked and nestled a top a generous portion of nicely seasoned haddock. The haricots verts were blanched nicely with a beautiful crisp, and the accompanying rice was just exceptional. I think there was a citrus note to it that was complemented beautifully by the lemon sauce. That sauce was outstanding. They really should bottle and sell it because it is such a perfect compliment to white fish. I really could eat this dish everyday... It was that good. A few members of my team ordered the chicken risotto with truffle fries, the ahi tuna bowl, and one team member ordered the steak. I remember pausing during the meal to note how quiet it was at the table... Only a couple of plates of good food could silence my otherwise loquacious team! The service was pretty good but we would have preferred it to be a little more attentive. It wasn't particularly busy in the restaurant but it was hard to get what we needed; refills on drinks, extra napkins, things like that. Our server was not as attentive as we would have liked and we had to find her and flag her down for everything we needed. At one point, a member of our party got up and went to the bar to ask the bartender for what we needed as opposed to continue looking for the server. Also, we're in the south and there's NO EXCUSE for y'all not having a decent glass of sweetened iced tea. I appreciate the effort that the bartender/server made to sweeten the tea, but maybe stir or shake it up before serving so that the first sip is not a mouth full of simple syrup.... While the rest of the drink is just a glass of unsweetened black tea. read more

Since rating this place, i've been here twice with my boyfriend and the food has yet to disappoint. The staff is always so warm and welcoming! Our first time here it was ridiculously busy, but our server kept us well informed and updated. Unfortunately our food was dropped at some point, so it took a bit long to arrive but the staff went above and beyond to give us free beverages and desserts to make up for it. Although it was a rocky night, the food was still delicious, fresh, and hot. We ordered the Filet Mignon, Mac and Cheese, and the California Chicken Sandwich; All of it was made perfectly!
