Came in for a sweet treat on a Saturday. Service was quick and the pumpkin pie blizzard had tons of toppings. Wish they gave a cap for to go. The mini is priced at 5.69 which is ridiculously overpriced. Some of the tables were in need of bussing. read more

It's really hard to find a decent Dairy Queen. But I had the strangest occurrence yesterday that has never happened and I've been to this location multiple times and continued to frequent because the arrive I had previously was good. However yesterday I walked in. And maybe 2 other patrons were in the store... I went up to the counter to order my ice cream. There were probably about 4 employees staring at me. I asked the cashier if they had a churro dipped cone he said yes wrung me up and it says cherry cone.. not what I asked for but I figured price is the same for a single dipped cone. Now he wasn't the one who prepped it he whispered to someone else who was prepping in and asked in a cone or a cup. Um I wasn't asked this question so why assume? I stayed silent cause he correctly guessed a cone. Only to be brought out a red cherry dipped cone. Seriously?! 4 people all witnessed this cherry cone. Instead of just apologizing and saying sorry about that you keep it cause we have to throw it out. Takes it out of my hand and places it in the holder then attempts to make me the correct cone. As I walked out I've never felt so confused. 4 people watched the guy ring me up and a guy improperly prepare my ice cream. A reminder to not visit on a Thursday because the staff seems to be the least helpful. Who knows maybe they are the franchise owners and just have horrible customer service cause if this was my first visit it would've been my last. read more

I love Dairy Queen, but the service at this location by one of the employees was the worst. He didn't actually help me, someone else did, who's customer service was good. The other person was closing the store. Instead of saying they were closing, he sat at a table and glared our way, in front of the door! read more

Good service. Got the $7.00 meal deal. Decent fries, good sundae, lukewarm cheeseburger. May go back for ice cream, will skip anything that is supposed to be cooked. read more

Have been here twice since arriving in VA. Friendly service and foods has been correct and made within minutes. Would love a whole container of gravy for tender box and buttered toasted bread. Ice cream blizzards great too and made to order. Thanks, recommended. read more

Closest DQ to me within 30 minutes so I won't complain! You can order on door dash or head in. Lots of parking & tables to sit and eat at. I always get the mini! read more

I used to come here often but the service and quality is terrible now 8 dollars for a blizzard with nothing in it and a staff that makes you think it's your problem not theirs. Take your money somewhere else. read more

Pretty good, wasn't allowed to bring it into the theater though. So glad it's that close to Ford's Theater. The concessions there are expensive, and these are much, much cheaper for good quality food. read more

I love Dairy Queen! Unlike all other ice cream places where your ice cream could be melting in the window, they prove to you that it hasn't melted by flipping it over. The wait can be a little long, but the people are nice. read more

Literally its sloppy where if you told them to hold the blizzard upside down as they are supposed they would be cleaning messes all day. Granted the ratings higher because first time in a while the person that made mine made a true blizzard and held it upside down. But by the pictures one not like the other. read more

The website said it closes at 9:30 but the person there said they actually close at 9. Either change the website or have the employees stay until it closes. When does it actually close? read more

It seemed like I went there during their rush hour. I had to wait for a while. Price: Pretty cheap. If you wanna have special ones. More than $5. Staff: Not friendly. They were too busy to smile. Taste: High sugar and oil. I do not like it at all. My first experience was failed... Atmosphere: Really casual. Young couples and families. Free parking lot: In front of the building. I made vegan ice cram later to get satisfied. Oh, I remember one good things. They do upside down to show how thick it is before they serve, which was really funny for me;) read more

Wrapping up my alphabet series, and X, Y, & Z are tricky, but I've planned what I will do for each. X is for Bailey's X-roads (Crossroads): There is a sign on VA-7 (Leesburg Pike or King St) that actually says Bailey's X-roads. I went here once with a friend in 2016. I was pushing for some nicer place next door, but he was practically begging to go to the Diary Queen. I was trying to eat healthy and went with the grilled chicken sandwich with the fries and drink; so still not healthy, but I bit healthier than the fried chicken sandwich or chicken strips. My friend paid for mine and said you get me next time. Gee thanks, he picks the cheapest place, and I got him next time on a more expensive place. The grilled chicken sandwich was rubbery; I would've enjoyed the fried chicken sandwich or chicken strips better. I wanted gravy for my fries; the only way to make their fries not mediocre since I don't like ketchup, but they tried to charge me a $0.25, which I was annoyed by, but I paid it. If I had been smart, maybe I should've let my friend pay that quarter too. I think just go to Diary Queen if you are getting their ice cream products. If you are getting an actual lunch or dinner, I'd steer clear and go elsewhere. read more

Heard about Grill and Chill from visiting in-laws from Ohio, and took the whole family out here, very good experience. Got plenty of food, desserts, and it didn't break the bank. Amazing value in these inflationary times - McD's and has gotten so expensive for a much lesser quality of food, it's just not worth it. The food here is better quality and you get the nostalgia of 1980's Blizzards and dipped cones all over again. Great burgers and fries, chicken. Family friendly, the service was great, especially the manager seemed on top of everything, was all over the place. Look forward to going back! read more

Excellent customer service! The gentleman that took my order and made it was phenomenal. He was very patient and kind even though I had no idea what I wanted. Also he was able to help me quickly and efficiently. The food and ice cream was very good! I will return and this time I'll know what I want! Thank you so much for the wonderful service. read more

Ok let start saying. Yes is covid time everyone knows that, it that means employees don't need to wear gloves? YEEES THEY NEED TO WEAR GLOVES!! today I see the employees prepare my food with no gloves Special this time of covid, come on people is disgusting read more

So I have came here multiple times after checking hours on Google maps. Every single time it is closed. They are never ever ever open and just post false hours. They should update their hours and stop wasting people's time. Do not trust anything they post online it is almost certainly wrong. read more

Typical Dairy Queen. Good blizzards and ice cream products. Haven't tried the other food. A lot of teenagers seem to frequent the place so it can get a little noisy. read more

They'll make you wait 30 min after ordering to tell you they forgot to make your food. Then when your food does come out it's the wrong order and you gotta wait all over again read more

I was in the area and after seeing DQ commercials on TV for the past couple of months, I knew it was time to finally satisfy that once-a-year blizzard craving. It was July 4th so they were closing early at 4pm, and there was a bit of a line when I arrived at 3:15pm, but it moved quickly and the cashier was efficient and friendly. The A/C must have been broken because it was hotter in there than the 95 degrees it was outside! Anyways, my blizzard was ready and made with chocolate ice cream as requested (if you're dying to know I chose the choco brownie extreme) within a couple of minutes. I found parking up front with no issues too. I've never had anything other than blizzards from any DQ, but this one is just like the rest-standard recipe, refreshing, and satisfies the sweet tooth! I'd return again if I find myself in the area. read more

I got the Royal New York cheesecake blizzard which was quite tasty. The store was not as clean as it could be but overall was ok

Hours on website say open until 9:30pm, called to confirm. Pulled up at 9:14pm on 1/8, lights out, closed. A few minutes after I tried to enter, someone left and locked the door from the outside. Still 10 min before closing. read more

The staff are always so nice and friendly and the ice cream is always so good! I love Dairy Queen!

My girl had a hankerin' for one of their chili dogs and I tried their new Alaskan Cod sandwich. It was simple but hot n' tasty. Her footlong chili dog was more than a meal. That thing was colossal. After the meal, she had a blizzard - I only tried a couple spoonfuls and it was decadent. The atmosphere leaves little to be desired though. And some of the clientele outright sneers at my service dog. Too bad...she wears a vest and is legal. These urchins need to learn the law. read more

Consistent excellent service and quality. The staff at this DQ deserve a lot of credit. People know DQ. This location holds up.

I will have to agree with nicey b. and Ben M. I went here for the LAST day of their Buy one, Get One Blizzard for 25 cents deal. My friend and I searched to see where the closes one would be and to Arlington, this is it. It's a small little place in a strip next to Party Depot. When we arrived, there was a line reaching the door. My guess, it was because it was the last day of the deal. We patiently waited in line and then ordered a Reese's pieces Blizzard and a Banana Split Blizzard. They did not do the flip and nor did they give enough toppings. I had to mix mine up to really have it hit the spot. The banana pieces were very big and chunky so it was not to my liking. I have never had high expectations of Dairy Queen so I'm not appalled or surprised. It was decent and it served it's purpose in getting me fat. If I want something that wows me then I would go to Cold Stone. read more

I'm not crazy about this Dairy Queen. But it'll do. Two stars because its exactly that--"Meh. I've experienced better." I grew up 3 blocks from a Dairy Queen in California. Blizzards bring back childhood memories for me, and I was excited since they were doing a special. BTW: *Dairy Queen is having a Buy one, Get One Blizzard for 25 cents deal April 19-25, 2010. A really great deal, if you ask me. Our total for two large blizzards was $4.58. wonderful. We walked in, after our dinner at Pho Golden Cow. I was looking forward to these blizzards all day. :) My husband ordered the cookie dough blizzard, and I got my all-time-favorite, the mint oreo. Our guy was quick to take our order, and get it started, but I too noticed that my much anticipated famous "Dairy Queen Blizzard Flip" was not performed. Boo. :( For a moment there, I thought maybe it was just a California thing...but after reading Ben's review, I'm going to assume its a Dairy Queen thing. Shame on them. Neither of the two workers did their flip! In addition, our guy was very cheap on the ingredients. For two large blizzards, only the top half of my blizzard was mint oreo. The bottom was pure vanilla ice cream :( And when he put cookie dough in my husband's blizzard, he scooped two scoops, which is probably the equivalent of 2 Tbsp. It was sad, because my husband pretty much got vanilla ice cream....with a few cookie dough bites. LAME. So much for a blizzard! The quantity we received was a bit shy as well. Back home, our blizzards always had that "slim-jim-guy-hair" type shape at the top. Hence the exciting "flip" to prove that their blizzard was a success, despite bulging out in portions. Our large blizzards at this Dairy Queen didn't even make it to the rim of the cup. Shame, I tell you, shame... I still love Dairy Queens. Matter of fact, I finished my mint oreo blizzard right now for lunch. This experience hasn't soiled my impressions for me not to return to Dairy Queen all together,--just this location in particular. Boo this location. Go get the blizzard special at another DQ location though, before it ends!! :) read more

When did blizzards become so expensive? Guess they need the money to pay for all of those commercials during the Olympics. A small blizzard at this DQ is now over $5. And they didn't even have any of the Reece's Pieces left for their blizzard of the month. It's just not with that premium price for bland vanilla soft serve with toppings. read more

I called shortly after opening inquiring about an ice cream cake - what colors/flavors they had on hand. They ran through what they had and I casually mentioned that I would prefer a blue-iced cake with a birthday message, but didn't make a specific order with them as I planned to visit in-person later in the afternoon. I ended up coming in a few hours later than I expected, but they had set the one blue-iced cake aside for me! They wrote the birthday message while I waited. They made the whole process easy for me, and were so friendly and helpful from start to finish! Thank you all!! read more

Hot a chocolate ice cream cone which I asked to have placed upside down in a cup. Hit the spot.

It's great for an easy desert, but not the most appealing when thinking about food. I rarely sit down to eat, since the place isn't particularly inviting for it. read more

I love this place. The staff is always friendly and even remember me! Their chicken strips are the best hot food item on the menu btw :) I hear that this DQ wasn't this good in the past, but now it's great! read more

Know one of the guy that work at this Dairy Queen for a long time. Because I work next to this place. Always give me 10% discount, and cook my orders perfectly! I usually get chicken basket which is pretty tasty and good amount of food. But I'm not really a big fan of their fries. Also Flame Thrower burger is SUPER GOOD! Plenty of meat, cheese.. pretty fat though, but I'm a skinny Asian kid, so I don't care that much. So yeah, this place always satisfied me. read more

awful service here, even when its not crowded which makes no sense.I have tried to like this particular Dairy Queen for a while but every time I go I leave kind of sad. :( Also it can get dirty here so I would avoid it and go get ice cream somewhere else, for the same price you go go somewhere else for better quality and service at the same price! *Note: The Vienna location is much better, the ice cream tastes better and friendly service as well :) read more

This is a fantastic location. Fast service and the staff actually seem to give a damn about their jobs and customers. Very friendly service.

Asked for extra butterfingers. Paid for extra butterfingers. But didn't get extra butterfingers. And they didn't serve my blizzard upside down. The workers were more concerned about their conversation to care about customers. read more

Despite the mediocre food, this review is on customer services. If there is anyway that turns me off, customer service is the ultimate sin. I ordered a 4 piece chicken finger basket which comes with fries and a soda/drink. As the cashier gave me a cup for my drink, I noticed there were water bottles and soda can fridge to my right. I asked the guy if instead of getting soda if I can get a water bottle instead. The guy directed me to the soda fountain and said that I can get water from there. I don't understand. Anywhere else you go, you can trade out a water bottle instead of getting a soda. He told me again to get my water from the soda fountain. I went ahead and got a soda. I doubt I would come back again. read more

Despite all the reviews... I have had consistent good service. The food is always fresh and the restaurant is clean. I typically come for the ice cream, but my chicken basket did not disappoint. I would definitely come back. read more

Each Dairy Queen is independently owned and operated so the owners get to dictate how their store is run, and even products they do and do not offer. For instance; if you want to get the 4 piece chicken strip basket, it comes with a drink included in the price, and you are unable to purchase it without a drink. So the owner justifies the high markup on the basket. When I recieved the basket, it didn't come with gravy, and it was explained to me, " That most customers throw it away." , So why not give the customer the choice instead of assuming they won't want it? Again, you are paying for the gravy as part of the basket. Also, the bread I don't think is even Texas Toast, which is what the basket is supposed to come with. So I paid $6.99 for the 4 piece basket. Once I finished the basket, I went to purchase a kids dipped cone. I was informed so eloquently by pointing to a picture that they had only 3 sizes and did not sell a kids size, to which I replied, " How do you explain the kids size in the kids meal?" The man at the counter said, " Well we only make those for the kids meals, but we can sell you a small and make it kids size." I was absolutely baffled, until it dawned on me that this owner only really cared about the profit margins he is making on each and every product. No kids cones, and only smalls, well I will make more money there. No gravy, well I might save the 3cents per cup it costs. What fascinated me most was the copious amount of fries I received in the basket, as well as the oversized small dipped cone I received. It had 3 flares and not 2 like the small size should have, and the shape of the flares were flat. It should have weighed 5 and 1/2 ounces I believe. And I would guess it had to be double that. ( I worked as a manager at a DQ for 6 years on the west coast, and it absolutely baffles me that this owner settles for such mediocrity in presentation of product and product portioning.) No wonder you are hemorrhaging money and have to cut corners on proper training and Dairy Queen standards. I guarantee you can barely keep labor costs around 25% and you are shooting yourself in the foot by closing the kitchen at 8, and closing as early as 9 pm. Your cooks should be able to cook and clean, and continue serving food until close. Also, clean the bathrooms, and maybe seek a new manager. read more
