We arrived for a lunch reservation at Harvey's in Falls Church and were seated right away by the owner, Thomas Harvey, who was friendly and welcoming. I ordered the hot dogs with fries. The hot dogs were excellent, with a firm bite and served on nicely toasted buns. The fries arrived hot, with a satisfying mix of crispy and softer pieces. Ketchup and a soda created a perfect, simple lunch. My friend ordered the smash burger with Roquefort cheese and said it was delicious. The burger was juicy and flavorful, and the Roquefort added a rich, tangy kick that really set it apart. Our server, Janet, was warm and attentive throughout the meal. She checked in at just the right moments and made us feel well taken care of without hovering. A great lunch and a place I'm very happy to recommend. We'll definitely return. read more

We had reservations for 12:00 on Saturday (and needed them) during falls church restaurant week. We got the sweet fire breakfast sandwich on biscuit, the forager on English muffin, sage and smoke on biscuit. You get a choice of biscuit, croissant, English muffin, and sourdough. It was a good deal for restaurant week but don't know if I would pay $20 for it normally. Ambiance- just kind of bar-y/normal. Parking free in the back lot or garage read more

Second time at Harvey's this year and I love the "this is where the locals go" vibe. They have a great happy hour or "crush hour" as they call it, with signature crush cocktails. The menu is diverse with plenty of choices to satisfy most cravings. The food is good....has that home-cooked taste. They have a very interesting and rotating selection of craft beer in both cans and on tap. Our server and the manager gave us great recommendations for beer based on our taste. They also have a good wine and cocktail selection. We tried a lime crush, tempranillo wine, dirty bird bites and tuna taco on the crush hour menu. Then ordered a couple burgers for our mains. Everything was great. We'll be back. Thanks! read more

I have to emphasize that the food was very fresh but seriously lacked flavor. My chicken parm with vodka sauce was very thick and too saucy. Not a good balance. Noodles and chicken were cooked to perfection but lacked flavor. I thought this place was too pricey as well. But biggest mystery was what kind of restaurant was this? They served burger, calamari, chicken parm, duck, philly cheesesteak. This place has potential is the best I can give it. Service was adequate read more

Harvey's was great! I met Harvey. He is a wine connoisseur. He recommended the best white burgundy I've ever had! I should've taken a picture of the bottle!! they accommodated a party of six with two small children with grace. The food was good. The service was great. read more

This feels like a neighborhood joint where you could get to know the staff. We went for Sunday brunch and the place was busy. After we order it took some time to get our food. We were checked on frequently by our waiter who offered his apologies for the delay. The food was worth the wait and was very tasty. The waiter suggested we come back for the dinner menu. Sounds like a great idea. read more

4.5/5 Harvey's is a great local spot for good food. The owner is super nice and easy to talk to. His staff are also great - friendly, attentive, and helpful. The restaurant seats a surprising amount of people. There's a bar that looks right into the kitchen area too. I think they do a lot of things well, but could improve in minor details. For example we got the house salad and it was just big pieces of lettuce, think whole leaves. My friend also noted their salad dressing on her shrimp salad was underwhelming. I also wish this place had better draft beer. All 3 times I've been the only draft lager or light beer is PBR...there is usually 1-2 IPAs, and currently a dark high ABV stout. You can't beat their happy hour though! $2 off draft beers which are priced about $6. Three Discounted wines and a handful of crushes. In some cases (excluded draft beer) you can combo HH food and drinks. Harveys Smash burger is SOLID and on HH I think it's $7. Really can't beat it. The chicken on HH was really good too though we sauce we got on the side didn't taste like hot honey. It tasted like a gochujang based sauce. If it was actually served with a hot honey it would be fire but the chicken and white sauce was already moist and delicious. Fries are pretty solid. The fish and chips was excellent too. All in all Harveys is a great spot for good for and we love supporting local. There's something for everyone which I love. There's a kid menu too. read more

A small and cozy spot - tables are close together. Great customer service! Food was great. Good taste and quality. We got the breakfast platter and the "little city" sandwich. Bacon was thick and crispy. Husband liked the quiche style eggs in his sandwich - instead of a platter, he might just order two sandwiches lol. Yumm! read more

Everything was good, not exceptional, but good. Hostess/waitress very pleasant. Atmosphere not cozy, but fine. I'm not one who likes really hard chairs. At least they did have seat cushions. I know things are costing more, but the size of the Caesar was quite small more like a side salad and the chicken cheesesteak was small. The Caesar salad was dressed up a bit with fried capers, a nice touch, but I'd prefer a bigger salad over fried capers if that's where you have to put your money and energy. I believe for the prices the food was on the small side. Glad I went there for lunch and not dinner. I would be leaving hungry if I went there for dinner. The lunch and dinner menu is the same so I'm assuming the portions are also the same because the prices do not change. read more

This is a classic neighborhood restaurant. Chef Harvey has really turned this space into a warm place with fantastic food, great drinks, and top notch ingredients. This year, I outsourced Thanksgiving "sides" to Harvey's and they were fantastic. They day of, I dropped by in the morning and there were kids decorating gingerbread cookies and they were serving adult beverages served at the bar. Definitely put me in the holiday spirit. Breakfast on the weekend is fantastic and they have a bloody mary bar. As far as lunch and dinner, there's something for everyone. The service is always friendly. read more

My BIL made us reservations because he had been wanting to try it. Cute little place. Parking was a bit of a pain but we managed to get a spot. Walked in and we were seated. We ordered our drinks, two manhattan's and two espresso martinis. Both drinks were delicious but that martini was perfectly balanced and not overly sugary like most places make them. Kudos to whoever made our drinks. Keieren was our server and did a great job. Pleasant and friendly. The woman who took our order was very nice as well. My BIL and his husband ordered a smash burger and chicken Parmesan while I ordered the fish and chips and my bf ordered the duck breast. My fish and chips were delicious! The duck was very tasty too! I didn't try the chicken or the burger but they did say they enjoyed their meals and definitely are going to go back to try more. We are only here for the holiday but definitely would go back as well. Busy place and the ambiance was nice and the atmosphere was great. Definitely would give it more stars if possible. read more

We've been here twice to get the Sage and Smoke breakfast sandwich. It might be one of the best (if not THE best) breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. Especially on the biscuit. I definitely need to come back to dine in because I imagine the rest of their offerings are great. As long as they have the Sage and Smoke, I'll be back. read more

Visited here on a Sunday and had a reservation which surprisingly was given to another party, accidentally. So despite the mix up, we were able to get seated after waiting just a few minutes for the host to figure things out. The space is pretty intimate but the staff are super kind. We ordered the sweet fire breakfast sandwich platter, the Forger breakfast sandwich platter, fish and chips, and the dirty bird. The food was fine, we really enjoyed the biscuits those were the highlights of the entrees. The fish and chips were delicious, the dirty bird was soo juicy and moist. The sweet fire could have been improved with more sauce as it was a little dry. The sides of fruit weren't fresh and the hash browns were interesting, not bad just no flavor. read more

Harvey's is a perfectly decent place for breakfast/brunch. We came here this past Saturday for a late morning breakfast. We made reservations through Resy. The gal seating people thanked us for making a reservation, indicating we would get a better table as a result. My hunch is Harvey's specializes in self-service Bloody Marys. Upon entry we saw a table by the door laden with the typical ingredients to add to a Bloody Mary, e.g. celery, pickles, olives, various juices and sauces. JP ordered a Bloody Mary with shrimp. They first brought out a glass half-filled with ice and a shot or two of vodka. The nicely cooked and browned shrimp came out a few minutes later. JP was disappointed that for the $3 extra for the shrimp, there was just one shrimp. We also ordered the Breakfast Platter and Biscuits and Gravy. The Breakfast Platter comes with meat (I opted for bacon), eggs, hash browns and for $2 extra two slices of sourdough bread. The bacon was excellent and I loved how my over-easy eggs had pleasing golden touches. The hash browns was actually a molded ovoid, not shredded potatoes as one might expect. It (or they?) were just okay. The Biscuits and Gravy were very good, with a nice flavorful gravy. Note: the half order is plenty big, and the full order is huuuuge! The ambiance is comfortable with lots of windows and light music in the background. Service was fine. read more

I've eaten at Harvey's twice so far, once for brunch and for dinner. The breakfast sandwich a cheesesteak are delicious.

I deeply appreciate the way you support federal workers while they are on furlough! read more

Sorry that I went out of my way to eat a very average breakfast. Drove 20 miles to check the place out and we ordered their breakfast plater that comes with two eggs, sourdough toast and choice of bacon or sausage, and what they said, hash browns for $18.00. Ambiance is nice and service could've been better had the server let us know that they had no hash browns. Instead, they brought us french fries to go with our breakfast. Very average breakfast and would say for the price an overrated breakfast. read more

The good thing about Harvey's is that on paper, you can tell that the menu is chef driven. It's basically just comfort food, nothing fancy, but the composition of each item is a bit elevated. The quality and integrity of ingredients seems to be present. The staff is courteous and friendly. However, the execution is underwhelming, while being overpriced! The price-to-portion of some items, like their their beer cheese chicken sandwich for example can be described as stingy. Mine had a sparse amount of chipped chicken mixed w/ mushroom slices. It was almost like a chicken cheese spread (see pic). Or take for example a $15 chicken add-on to a smallish $11 simple salad (that's a $26 chicken salad)! I'd expect to pay that for a salmon Nicoise or rib-eye steak salad, but for a chicken topped salad, c'mon! I feel that nowadays, some casual restaurants get away w/ a false sense of value; portraying a disarming perception that comfort food in a laid back, generic setting is affordable. This is one of those places! But if you pay attention to Harvey's menu, you'll realize that these prices are what you would expect from an upscale, fine dining restaurant downtown. Pricing across the board is easily above its comparable nearby competitors (Kindred, Dominion, The Falls, Dogwood, Open Road, etc.) and more inline with nearby "2941" or similar places vying for a Michelin star/ Bib Gourmand! Bottomline, expect to pay above average prices for standard comfort food, in a tavern setting in the burbs. read more

Had come previously for take out breakfast/brunch food only. Recently came in for lunch dine in. Good is always creative here and the products used look quality. The shroom scallops I ordered was way too salty - I could see all the layer of salt sitting on the shrooms. Meanwhile the spaghetti squash underneath it has no flavor at all. Help kitchen! My counterpart's blackened shrimp Caesar salad on the other hand was perfect. So inconsistent. Also pricey. One entree per person for lunch came out to $60+! Free parking in the back is convenient. read more

I really wanted to love this neighborhood restaurant. I had already included it in my list of gluten free establishments and couldn't wait to try it for myself. Hubby and I walked in on a Saturday evening at 5:30 without a reservation to a fairly empty dining room and were told that there was absolutely no way for us to be seated without a reservation except for outside or at the high tops by the entrance (a packed five high top area that was probably originally a waiting space) or the bar. As someone who walks with a cane and has balance issues, either one is a challenge, but on a cold night, we chose the high tops and I wedged myself between the extra stacked chairs and the window. I will place an asterisk here and note that at no time did anyone ask how long we would be or say - 'hey, if you're going to be under an hour, we can seat you at a table' because the dining room remained empty for the DURATION of the time we were there. Service was ....'fine' in the way that you say fine to your best friend knowing that nothing was great but nothing was really horrible. Our server never introduced himself, showed up with waters, disappeared, showed back up again to take drink orders (they don't have club soda but it's a bar?), brought a glass bottle of sparkling water but no glass, brought a plastic bottle of Coke Zero no glass... he did when I told him I had allergies ask about something I was interested in and then made notes in their ordering system (which printed out on the receipt). However, I asked for something specifically NOT to be included and of course it was, so when it showed up with that on the plate, he asks, do you want me to scrape it off? Yes, actually I do. Here's the low down on the food. I ordered the tuna sandwich, no bun, no lettuce, no tomato, no aioli (it's not avocado on top, it's guacamole) with the fries. Hubby had the tacos from the happy hour menu with a side of the steamed green beans. The tuna from the sandwich and the tuna in the tacos is identical. I thought it was overdone on the seasoning and lacked salt. Hubby had the aioli on his and thought it was fine. The fries were not good. They definitely lacked salt and were bland with a starchy finish. What I was most interested in was the conversation and watching the host stand. As someone who is immune compromised, I recognize my take is different. I watched the host do stretches, touching their shoes, touching their hair and then touching the menus that they were then handing to customers, all the while not washing their hands. They also have a huge bowl of hard candy, not sure for whom, but it is behind the host stand and they guard it, as it is not accessible to any patrons. *it's the good stuff too, it's the strawberry hard candy* There is also a huge discrepancy between who the management talks to and who they don't. We watched certain tables get fawned on by people we presumed were management and others not get spoken to by anyone. At the end, our check got dropped off and we were asked about dessert by someone else and we never saw our server again. They never even came by for the check and we were glad that we had the inkind app to pay remotely and leave. So while they want to be the place for the neighborhood, I'm not sure that's going to be my neighborhood joint. read more

We live just blocks from Harvey's and have heard from our neighbors how amazing this place is from the service, ambiance, to the food. We were glad to have finally tried this for ourselves and it is exactly as recommended. For a Friday dinner time, we were able to walk right in to be seated inside. Since the weather was a nice cool breeze, the outdoor option had a nice little wait. We immediately recognized folks that we knew and met a new people that sat right next to us. This place truly has a friendly, family, neighborhood charm and community vibe. The service was exceptional and the staff was very attentive. The prices were also reasonably priced, especially for the quality of the food and service. Parking was very limited as we had to park away from their lot. An overall very hospitable spot, we will definitely be back! Enjoy! read more

I had been told this was a great place for breakfast or brunch, and the menu offered an array of brunch options. There are many breakfast sandwiches to choose from, traditional brunch entrees, and the classic lunch fare. But I wasn't looking past breakfast food. Work a place called Harvey's, I expected something a little more traditional. But instead it was kind of hipster modern, bright and open. I think the exotic breakfast sandwiches are what they are known for, so my daughter got the "Sweet Fire" honey fried chicken sandwich, but I listened to our waitress and had the pancakes. It was a large portion of big fluffy pancakes made with fresh blueberries. Very good. Ask for extra syrup, because the cakes are big. read more

I usually won't leave a bad review and forgive me being brief apparently we can't leave a "wordy review". The scallops were overcooked and CRUNCHY. The servers were at our table quickly in the beginning, We ordered drinks and informed them we were not in a hurry. However quickly and repeatedly circling back requesting our order. I never opened the menu, and it's important to note the restaurant was empty aside from one other table, so I'm puzzled as to why they're rushing us. I ordered an app to give us some time again reminded them we were going to relax and have a few drinks & catch up. Before I finished my first drink they had squeezed our order out. From the time the entree arrived, I waited maybe 10 minutes, and no one checked back.. eventually I had to wait and wave them over as they were not even making eye contact with us. My company had nearly finished their dish by this point. $180 lunch with $21 martinis (there is a $5 up charge for grey goose and no bitters...) $5 up-charge for grey goose vodka and "extra martinis". I ordered: grey goose up, extra chilled, no vermouth, with olives. I don't mind paying $20 or $30 for a martini but at least serve it how I ordered it I should note that on several occasions over the last year or two I have felt unwelcome and rushed. We circled back due to other favorites being closed for the holiday. Never again! read more

My wife and I went to Harvey's and had mostly appetizers. The food was interesting, but service was slow and they weren't packed. Took a little while to get seated, and then the food took a little while too. We had the onion dip, which we both liked a lot. We also had the crab fritters. We thought they were OK and it needed more seasoning. Finally we had the house salad as a nod to something healthy and it was good. It was a little pricey for bar food. If service had been great they might have gotten five stars. read more

I visited this restaurant for brunch with my friends on a Saturday afternoon. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. For one, they have something for everyone, especially people who follow a plant based lifestyle. The menu is pretty interesting. Our server was kind, he answered all of our questions. It did take a little while for the food to come out, but who is worried about the time when you are catching up with friends :) I like the aesthetic, it's not very big, but it is a cute restaurant. Parking seems to be plentiful, but be mindful of the two hour limit. I got this breakfast sandwich with chicken, egg, and pimento cheese. The flavors complimented each other and the biscuit was very delicious. I loved the homemade hash browns and the side of fruit had plenty of berries. My plant based friend enjoyed her biscuits and gravy and my other friend enjoyed her Philly cheesesteak. read more

I've been to Harvey's twice, once for breakfast and once for lunch. Breakfast was really tasty... sausage gravy and biscuits. We thought we'd found our new favorite breakfast place. Lunch was really disappointing. We ordered the roasted artichoke appetizer, which was slimy and flavorless. We got the "dirty" bird chicken sandwich, the breading on which was burnt and flavorless. The burger was tasty, but they use the type of bun that instantly dissentigrates on the first bite. Not sure we'll try again, even for breakfast. read more

Pros: - parking garage available behind the restaurant - service was amazing - very well-lit and lots of seating (indoor and outdoor) Cons: - my table ordered the Nordic sandwich (basically an egg lox bagel but on bread), spicy chicken sandwich, and sausage egg sandwich - all sandwiches were just ok. Spicy chicken wasn't spicy at all and pretty flavorless. Eggs and salmon are a weird combo. Sausage was basically non-existent. "Hashbrowns" were potato pieces mashed together and then fried? Not appetizing. Wish this place had better food, probably won't be back. read more

We popped in for brunch on a Saturday and were seated outside since we did not have a reservation. Good to know that having a reservation might be better to secure an inside seat. It was September but a little blustery on the day we went. We were seated by Harvey who gave us suggestions on what to order to insure that our dining experience would be great. We ordered the burger and a breakfast sandwich which was fried chicken on a biscuit. The biscuit was tender and flaky and delicious. It be easier to eat with a fork and knife however the flavors were perfect together. I had the burger and it was delicious. The service was great! Just enough attention without hovering and we were in and out within an hour. The environment was cozy and have a nice energetic feeling. Everyone that worked there was pleasant. Great service experience all around so we will be back and may make a reservation next time. read more

Harvey's - Breakfast sandwich with fried chicken and pimento cheese on a biscuit and the burger with fries. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

Sad. That's how we felt. The vibe was AWESOME. The menu was promising. The coffee was good. The decor and crowd were welcoming. Then I got pancakes that had to have come out of a food service frozen box. They were equally sized and browned, gummy, and sweet with no pancake flavor. How do you mess up pancakes? You buy them frozen in a box. This spot is so charming that upon being seated we were ready to make it our regular weekend haunt. If a cook poured identical pancakes into a griddle in their kitchen from a scratch-made batter, I would be beyond astounded. I do not think that is the case. We will not be back. I WISH this incredible spot with so much potential would ditch the truck food. read more
