    Under filled Mexican Caesar
    Katie C.

    Food tastes good but a lot of inconsistency in quantity. Look how under filled our bowls are from tonight. Definitely not worth the $13

    Raw carrots...?

    I am not sure why I got raw carrots and cold, not fully cooked veggies with my warm harvest bowl plus roasted veggies. Wishing I went to sweetgreen across the street. Workers were nice, place was clean, but eh.

    I love this Chop't at 1735 N Lynn St, Arlington just across the street from the Rosslyn Metro. I am somewhat boring and always get the Chicken Caesar Salad (the dressing is so darn addictive) but they have such a variety you can find a salad for any personality.  This is a hotbed for office lunch.  So if you are in a rush, steer clear of the 12 o'clock hour.  The team here does work hard to get everyone in, ordered, served, and out as quick as possible, much better than other restaurants in Rosslyn. Check them out if you haven't been.  1735 N Lynn St, Arlington, Virginia.

    Fabulous cram apple harvest warm bowl with chicken and cauliflower rice. Yum yum, and what made it even better was the kind service

    Santa Fe Salad
    Christina L.

    I've been eating Sweetgreen at least once a week for the last few weeks, and have tried almost all of their salad bowls and harvest bowls now. I decided to try something different and get Chopt, but wish I had gotten Sweetgreen instead. The salads here are fine, but I think they are smaller than the Sweetgreen salads, and almost all have more romaine lettuce than healthier greens like kale and arugula, and less protein options. I got the Santa Fe salad which had avocado, tomato, corn, pepper jack cheese and fried onions chop't with romaine, with a chipotle vinaigrette. This was $8.99, and I added quinoa for an extra for $0.79. I thought the salad was just okay - I got it to go, and ate it within 10-15 minutes of getting it, and the lettuce was already starting to get soggy. I don't think I would get this again - for a Mexican inspired salad, I much prefer Sweetgreen's Guacamole Greens or Corn Elote salad. My husband got the NY Street Cart salad, which is one of their seasonal/specials that had chicken shawarma, roasted tomatoes, cauliflower quinoa tabbouleh, English cucumbers, pita chips, romaine, spinach purple cabbage & cilantro. I liked his salad a lot better than mine - it had good flavor from the spices in the chicken shawarma, and I liked the cauliflower quinoa for a little extra texture and vegetables. I'm a diehard Sweetgreen fan, but I would give this place one more shot, or come here if Sweetgreen wasn't open (but Sweetgreen opens later than this place does). Overall, fine for a salad, but I think there are better places for similar prices that have better quality & healthier ingredients.

    Mexican Caesar Salad
    Tyler C.

    Back in my bougie days I use to eat a sweetgreen very often (this was when they still accepted cash). One day I was with my mom to go pick up my dad from work in DC. For dinner I decide to eat at the chopt by Metro Center Station. I was very impressed because it was different, the salads were diced up in front of you and so forth. The salad I first got was a safe salad aka Caesar Salad. At that point when ever my mom went to pick up my dad. I would eat there often. So when Chopt came to Rosslyn I was real excited. When that happened I switch from the metro center location to the Rosslyn location. Currently my favorite is the Mexican Caesar with corn, cucumber and chicken. The woman who was chopping up my salad suggested I try the Mexican Caesar Dressing instead of the regular Caesar Dressing. She was spot on because it made the salad that much better. I was here pre and post renovation I think the restaurant now is beautiful. Yeah there's not many people working but they are super efficient especially during lunch hours. I think I was only waiting in line for about 5-8 minutes. I really like there destination salad. My favorite was this Caesar salad (yeahhh I like Caesar salads a lot) with cherry peppers but those salads are seasonal I think. Also the people who work there are really nice and even if they don't have something they try there best to make something similar. If the salad happens to be soggy generally it's not the salad chopper's fault because you have full control of how much dressing you want and you can also request dressing on the side. Between chopt and sweetgreen my favorite is chopt. For one chopt still accepts cash, you get more for what you pay for (portion wise). I still have love for sweetgreen (especially the guacamole greens)and I like how they support local farms etc. However I find myself gravitating to chopt when I'm in a salad mood.

    They mix it up in a bowl.

I ordered the chimichurri steak plate and really enjoyed it. Funnily enough, the chimichurri itself was the least enjoyable item. I didn't love the texture of it (much too coarse) but, fortunately, it was packaged in a small container separate instead of on the steak itself. The salad probably had a bit too much dressing but I had the option to order that on the side so that's on me. Nonetheless, the steak, potatoes, salad, corn, avocado were all excellent. I also added chips, a lemon zest cookie, and a blueberry breeze handcrafted drink. The cookie is big and chewy, unlike others I have had. It's definitely not something to eat in one sitting. The drink was a little blah and nothing I would order again. All in all, very good!

The space itself is bright and airy and a bit on the noisy side. But the service was very good, and the food was served quite quickly. I've been on a shakshuka kick lately, so I opted for the the Sweet Potato Shakshuka, which is described as: Sweet Potato Curry, with Chickpeas and Sunny Eggs with a the chicken add-on - gotta get that protein in, after all. This was one of the most unique shakshukas I'd ever had... It literally tasted like a curry dish you might get at your local Indian restaurant, with a bit of a brunch flair to it. The curry itself had a wee bit of spice and was a bit sweet - but that could have been from the sweet potatoes. The chicken was served in a bowl on the side, which felt a bit... odd... I would've expected it to be incorporated into the main dish. It was kind of bland and a bit lukewarm, so I don't know that I'd order that again... but I would definitely order this again!

Hubs enjoyed his cheesesteak but he prefers meat. I had a bite and thought it was really flavorful and very closely tasting like the real thing. I noticed later this is a chain, which is pretty cool. I think the prices were pretty steep so I might skip on the fries next time. The food could have been warmer as well. Definitely worth a visit and will most likely be back when in DC again.

This restaurant…read morewas recommended to me by a colleague so I decided to make the walk from where I am currently staying. Let me start by saying that the atmosphere in this restaurant is one that is so welcoming the minute you arrive. I approached the hostess stand to inquire if there was bar seating available to which the polite hostesses provided a gentle hand gesture and oral direction to the bar. While walking to the bar area, I encountered what I presume to have been a server who was likely standing watch from a distance over his service area, who apologized as our paths met. (There was no reason to apologize, very polite nonetheless) I found a seat at the bar and was greeted by Paul. Paul was an exceptionally pleasant and answered all my immediate questions while preparing my initial cocktail during happy hour. We discussed the menu and he provided great insight which helped finalize my decision for the evening . In the meantime, bar manager Laura stopped by to ensure that I was taken care of to which I informed her that Paul and I spoke and he is making a beverage for me. For the food...the Caesar Salad is #1. I am a food snob and this salad HITS!! While enjoying my salad I inquired about their cast bourbon selection. The staff was very knowledgeable and provided a price list to coincide with their higher end selections. My 40 layer lasagna arrived some time in the midst of the conversation where Paul extended a courtesy sampling of a wine that he recommended that pairs nicely with my meal. It was perfect. I closed out my meal with an espresso type martini, at which time Paul and Laura further extended and offered me a sampling of one of the bourbons I was looking at. I cannot say enough about this establishment. I can't wait to go back and have already recommended via phone conversations to three people and I just left. The evening and encounter was more than just pleasantries with a customer, rather I felt as if I was the only one. If the owner or manager is reading this, Paul and Laura are 10+ and I will be back. Thank you so much for the best meal I have had in DC over the last 2 weeks. Can't wait to do it again!!!
