    Spicy margarita
    Christal W.

    OK, hear me out. I was not a Chili's fan either, at least until recently. Yes, Chili's has a reputation. We all know. It's probably not the first place you jump up, grab the keys to and go to have date night or family dinner. And yes..it kind of doesn't matter what location that you go to (sort of) because sometimes when one franchise falls off, all of them get a bad rap. However....this one here in Waldorf!!? Please somebody sound the alarm. The food, the service all 10 out of 10. Now after never having ever gone to a Chili's maybe once since the early 90's, my husband and I went earlier this year, around the time the hot mozzarella sticks became popular, (because mozzarella sticks are my thing) and when you pair that with hot sauce..SIGN ME UP IMMEDIATELY!! I just had to have them; so that meant I had to go back to a Chili's to get them. That experience at this Waldorf location was great-food service all of it. The mozzarella sticks lived up to the hype. BUT, to make sure that just wasn't a one off, I came again just the other day...because I was craving those sticks. There was a much younger staff, it was a different time of day and I'm pleased to say that the same results were had. The food was great-fresh, hot and delicious. Their service was wonderful. The staff here were attentive without being overly attentive. They cleared tables at appropriate times, asked if we needed anything, apologized for cutting my husband off when he was trying to ask a question..I mean, just all out a great professional staff and again the food was great. We each got one of their speciality burgers and fries, I got mozzarella sticks of course, we shared the triple dipper and I got a cocktail. Everything was executed well and came out piping hot. Please. Just block out any negative thoughts you may have about this location or Chili's as a whole and give it a try...maybe you'll end up having a great experience! We certainly did and will certainly continue to patronize them.

    Quesadilla Explosion Salad

    I haven't been to a Chili's in years but when a friend said let's meet here because of the location, I said ok. We visited during the week for lunch and the place wasn't crowded so we were seated quickly. My friend ordered an appetizer, boneless wings and fries. I ordered the quesadilla explosion salad. Food came out pretty quick. My friend had no complaints about her boneless wings. My salad tasted as good as it looked. The cheese quesadilla topping was a little dry so I asked for extra sauce to dip it in. The 3 star rating was for the lack of service. Our server kept disappearing and forgetting things that we asked for. Not quite sure why because the place wasn't crowded.

    We decided to give this location a try. We were out shopping and we were hungry. Surprisingly the restaurant was very quiet when we arrive, there were a handful of customers and the hostess was on her phone. The hostess greeted us and sat us immediately. Our waiter came over, gave us drink suggestions and took our order immediately. Our waiter was unprofessional, he was young, but he was attentive and helpful. The food was good bar food. And the drinks were good bar drinks. The restaurant was clean and the flow of the work/workers ran smoothly. Give them a try if you're in the area.

    I wish I could find something nice to say about this place, but our experience there was terrible! We visited on a Friday night and the place was pretty empty, but we still waited at the entrance to be seated while the employee played on their phone and ignored us. When we were finally seated we were placed at a table that was really sticky, and we waited again as our waiter was no where to be found! Once he came around we placed our entire order in an effort to not be ignored again after getting drinks. Our water tasted like chlorine, the chips were half stale and the corn on the cob looked like it would be better suited as popcorn. I can confidently say I will not return to this location again.

    We came for a quick bite to eat and were not disappointed. Our server was attentive and the food was good. I also feel like the pricing and portions were worth it. The drinks were also strong so I definitely recommend going as they have happy hour all weekend. The buffalo chicken sandwich was good as was the appetizer sampler. We both got a margarita which was on the happy hour.

Although we were so captivated by the flavors that we forgot to capture the moment with a photograph, the meal was truly memorable.

We always stick to our usual -- the large margaritas and the fried chicken wings with Mexican rice -- and they never disappoint. Honestly, this is probably the best fried chicken in all of NOVA. Crispy, flavorful, and consistently excellent. It's the kind of dish you never get tired of ordering. What really sets Parrando's apart is the service. Sitting at the bar is a must for us because the bartenders make the experience. Josue has always been fantastic, and now with Alex -- who came over from Los Carnales -- it's even better. Having two of the best bartenders in town behind the same bar was a great surprise and makes every visit feel even more welcoming.

There are some parking spots right in front, although not many. There is a decent amount of seating, but it would be tight if you had a large party. My partner did note that the bathrooms weren't that great. You immediately get served complementary chips and salsa. They were pretty basic, but not bad. We ordered the following: + Papusas (Pork and Cheese & Loroco and Cheese) - Decent, although I prefer the Loroco (an edible flower bud). + Pollo à la Primavera (chicken dish) - Yummy, especially the sauce which mixes well with their hot/spicy sauce too! I could do without the salad dressing. + Camarones con Calabeza (shrimp dish) - Same as above! Note they leave the tails on. + Natural Juices (Mango and Maranon) - So refreshing! I loved the Maranon (cashew apple) was a wonderful burst of tropical sweetness with a subtle nutty taste. I appreciate that for the pupusas they had the foresight to provide my partner and I two plates so we could sphere the papusas. The portion sizes of the entrees were great for the price. It did take a while for the staff to swing by so that we could get boxes and the check. Note that credit cards and mobile pay are accepted. I definitely wouldn't mind coming back again to try more items on their menu.
