    Bruh. This place is lackluster at best. $7 for these three "meatballs" for my pup off their pup menu. $13 for this mimosa on their +$1 per mimosa for the bottomless option. The human food was also not good. Soggy sourdough is impressive. No salt at all on the fries. Not fresh fruit included with the "sandwich platter" which is an extra $10. Would not recommend, will not visit again. This place is not good.

    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!

    Sweet Fire Breakfast Platter

    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

    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.

    Smash Burger with Beer Cheese

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Smash burger and fries; hot dogs and fries.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Amazing Cuban and real fries... find me a better one (you won't).

Do not come expecting a solid seafood dinner. We came here after a nearby event. There was live music in the very sizable back lot area. People were actually up and dancing and having a great time. The vibes were stellar. I don't know if I would be into tbis place in the winter if I had to eat inside because the inside is kind of dingey, but outside in the summer is pretty paradisiacal. I did notice that they were doing karaoke in a weird little side room and it did not seem crowded on a Saturday night so that might be worth checking out. Servers were also all super nice. Pretty sure we entered the wrong way and kind of just let ourselves in through the back lot area and then we had no idea where to go to find a host(ess). So we asked the first server we could find where to go and she went "oh I can seat you" and grabbed two menus. Excellent. She also gave us our choice of wherever. The place is huge. Our assigned server was also nice and really knew the menu, which is not small. The menu had a ton of options including some really interesting tofu options and I had a hard time picking so I got excited. Also very customizable where you can choose your preparation. The beer list was not exactly artisinal...a lot of like...michelob ultra. And they had those island slushy kind of drinks. So at first I was like...this is my new weekend hangout. Then our drinks came. They were small and in little plastic cups. Wuhoh. Then our food came. I should have known it wouldn't be fresh. The price wasa little *too* good. When I asked about the catch of the day it was like four different things. I ended up with a buffalo grouper sandwich (grouper was one of the four things). I have had a fresh buffalo grouper sandwich in Clearwater before and that was in 2019 and I still remember it 7 years later. This buffalo grouper sandwich? Oh no. First of all it was this thin, flat battered fried cutlet thing. The breading absorbed the buffalo sauce so I couldn't taste it very much though they did bring me a lot of Bleu cheese dressing. The fish was bad. I bit into it and it tasted fishy and it was dry. Honestly if I hadn't been super hungry I would have just not eaten it. On top of that, I paid an extra dollar to upgrade from fries to hushpuppies. These were legit hushpuppies, but hushpuppies are small and how many did they bring me? 5. Are you kidding? Again, in Florida these are brought free by the basket. They're literally just fried up balls of corn meal. I think that may have offended me more than the bad fish. My husband went witb BBQ pulled chicken and fries and said both were good. So. Here are my thoughts. Would I come here again in the summer for fun vibes and good service? Yes. Would I set low expectations for my food and drink? Yes. Would I probably just order a softdrink and stick to something simple they can't screw up like a quesadilla and fries? Yeeeeeeeah.
