We were in the area for the Marine Corps Marathon and stopped in to Social Hour for brunch and were very pleasantly surprised. There was no wait to be seated at around 11 am (which was surprising), and the service was incredibly quick and accurate. I loved my crab cake eggs Benedict (it was the best I had the entire weekend, and I had several...) and we ordered a Belgian waffle for the table to split which was so soft and fresh with the perfect side of whipped cream and fruit compote. Also bonus points for the juices on the menu being freshly squeezed! Beautiful bar inside, comfortable seating, they even had soccer games on the tvs. Would go back! read more

Stopped by Kaldi'a for dinner and it did not disappoint! The service was a little slow and the text in the menu was small which made it difficult to read. I had the octopus for as an appetizer. The octopus was fatty but tender and had good flavor. I wished it was a little bit more charred. The scallops were delicious and the purée was creamy and sweet. The lamb chops were huge, meaty and tender. The pistachios went really well with it. The side carrots and mashed potatoes were also good. Food was priced fairly and portions were big. read more

Also known as Socail All Day bar is a pretty great place for drinks in Arlington, minutes away from DCA. Nice bar restaurant in a mixed retail-residential neighborhood. Plenty of street and garage parking near by. The bartenders were great. The drinks were pretty spot on. The food was really good. I ordered a bloody Mary and burger. The bloody Mary was well seasoned and the perfect compliment to my medium-rare burger. I had a really good meal and experience. I would definitely visit hear again. read more

I am a frequent customer of the Kaldi's location in Clarendon because of their affordable coffee drinks (compared to other cafes in the area), chill and casual environment. My friend and I were in the National Landing area this past Saturday afternoon and decided to stop by the Kaldi's there to catch up over coffee. This location is definitely less casual, with a more obvious bar set up and dine-in seating. My friend and I ended up grabbing our coffees to-go and sat on the sofa seating outside since the weather was warm and sunny. We also noticed that their food menu was different compared to their Clarendon location. LATTE (12 OZ) - 4.25 +1.25 for an extra espresso shot I'm used to the Clarendon location's 16 oz. latte with quad espresso shots, but they don't have that here. The latte was strong but nothing spectacular. I'll probably try something else next time. I'm more used to the more chill cafe environment, but this Kaldi's location is great for food and drinks if I'm looking for something like that in the area. read more

Oh. I was in the area for a convention, and wow have I been depriving myself! There's one right in Silver Spring... I need to visit ASAP. I went in the morning for breakfast and it was mostly empty. There's a full bar in the middle and they had some great R&B tunes playing. They asked if I wanted to do to-go or dine in, and when I said the latter, they led me to a table I could sit at. I wanted something hearty, and the coconut quinoa porridge immediately caught my attention. I decided to get vegan sausage and beignets too, because why not? The hot chocolate was a pleasant surprise too with the nutmeg on top of the whipped cream... YUM. I made the right choice with all of my food picks -- the porridge had so much amazing fruit and pistachios on top, and it was just so delicious. Apparently they have happy hour too, but I need to visit the Silver Spring location that's close to home. I was thoroughly impressed. read more

This location is a great local spot, uniquely built. It has a chill but classy atmosphere, and the staff is friendly, service is great! It's a good place to go with a group or on your own. The drink menu is interesting and delicious no matter what time of day, and each coffee beverage I've had has been enjoyable. I've been here multiple times for brunch/lunch. To me, it's been hit or miss depending on the dish, and it seems that it's only due to some items not being quite seasoned enough. Everything else about this place is a positive. I really do like this place, and would like to try dinner at some point, just wish my experience with the food was a little more consistent. read more

In February, our family hosted an absolutely brilliant birthday brunch for 22 "foodie" family and friends at Arlington's Social All Day, sight unseen as it was planned from our home in San Francisco. We were all delighted with the quality of the food, extensive selection of beverages, impeccable servers and attentive management, and we loved the sparkling clean and comfortable space. Co-owner/manager Sean was knowledgeable, responsive by phone, email or text, and provided invaluable options and menu suggestions. He curated a special menu for us with something for everyone, which he printed for each place setting with the name of the birthday boy prominently featured. For a shared starter, the chef's beautiful presentation of fresh fruit boards included uncommon-for-winter fruit such as dragon fruit, mango slices and various sweet berries. We also shared platters of freshly shucked local oysters on ice and bacon deviled eggs, while enjoying rounds of café lattes, freshly squeezed fruit juices, pitchers of mimosas and brunch cocktails, all before selecting our entree choices. The birthday "cake" - bread pudding slices with creme fraiche - concluded the party leaving a touch of sweetness on our palates. Our skilled and infinitely patient server, Winter, and her efficient team, couldn't have been nicer, and they made sure that we all had plenty to eat, drink and even boxed up a few leftovers. The bright, open air ambience of Social All Day's glass walled space, and the casual, unhurried atmosphere really contributed to the warm vibe of our party, and the location was very convenient to our hotel. When next in the DMV area, we look forward to visiting Social All Day again, for lunch, dinner or drinks, as we loved every aspect of our recent Arlington experience and are so grateful to Sean and Winter for making it happen so smoothly. read more

Wonderful meal at Kaldi's Social House. I met two co-workers for dinner at Kaldi's. We were quickly seated and the server brought menus and went over some of the beverage offerings that evening. We put in drink orders along with two apps--the crispy Brussels sprouts, Charred Spanish Octopus and Raspberry Point Oysters. The octopus was meaty, seasoned well and charred to perfection. The oysters were great with a homemade cocktail sauce. After making our way through the apps, we ordered entrees. I chose the Miso Glazed Halibut and it was unbelievable! It was well plated and served over bok choy and drizzled with a brown butter sake sauce. For dessert, we shared the peach crème brûlée and bread pudding. It was so good, I ordered take away the next night and enjoyed the clam linguini. read more

We went on a Monday evening, but even still, I was surprised that Kaldi's Social House wasn't busier! The service was great, and our server noticed that I wasn't drinking alcohol & asked if I'd prefer a mocktail. I was so grateful, and the drink the bartender came up with was so good!! The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was so cool. This is a great spot for a date night or dinner & drinks with friends! read more

Went to check out the new Kaldi's in Crystal City and wow a great time! I decided to spend the work day there. In the morning I grabbed a delicious iced latte and the coconut quinoa porridge and it was absolutely delicious! Prepared perfectly and neither was too sweet and yet still very filling and fresh! They had a great musical selection all throughout the day! They opened up the sliding doors as the day went on and what a wonderful experience, it added to an already great ambience! I was told they have a a green wall that I believe they were setting up! I eventually got a drink during happy hour and the seasonal burrata and both were very delicious as well! The service was very friendly and attentive without being over bearing especially for working there all day! They do only have one outlet if you plan to work there for the day but if you have a long lasting battery then this is the place for you! I look forward to working here more and checking it out for dinner read more

Haven't gone to their original location in Clarendon, this is a very different vibe, but not in a bad way! This location feels a lot more like a sit down restaurant rather than a place people go work and study. There were still a handful of people working and just drinking coffee with their computers out. They have a much more comprehensive menu at this location and a full bar service. The location is very interesting, it's basically a full window 360 building so you get a lot of nice natural light. I got there arugula salad with apples and squash, and it was delicious, and I was able to add their fried chicken, which was really good. A big piece of fried chicken and it was cooked and seasoned perfectly. It doesn't say specifically on the menu that you can add their fried chicken to their salads, but they were able to accommodate us! The serving was plenty big, we got a side of their breakfast potatoes but really didn't need them, we took most of them to go for later. This is a good place for a step up from a casual date spot that isn't too fancy or just a place to get a nice lunch. It wasn't super crowded on a Wednesday during lunch so it was easy to immediately get a table and order. read more

We love the Clarendon location (more of a coffee shop) but the National Landing location might be my favorite. It gives more of a hip restaurant atmosphere. The food is tasty (brunch both visits), the music selection is hip and fun and the service is excellent! This will be on our Sunday brunch list!!! (fyi if you have a coconut allergy avoid the granola) read more

The burger was awesome - perfect flavor combo between the red onion jam, Gruyère, and rosemary aioli (a great touch). The bun was perfectly grilled, too. My only complaint was some of the burger meat was a little chewy (?). $21 also felt a little on the pricier side for what I'd consider one of the smaller restaurant burgers I've had. I liked the portion size, just thought it may make sense to be more like under $20. We started with burrata and popcorn chicken - nice appetizer combo. The popcorn chicken was perfectly fried and flavorful! It also came out HOT - we love that. The service was good and the food for our party of five arrived super quickly. The spot is super cool, with a stunning bar in the center. I'll definitely have to come back and try some cocktails! Parking is easy on the street (free after 8pm) or in one of the garages nearby. read more

Amazing experience dinner last night at Kaldi-kudos to this creative chef and the entire Kaldi team for this special treat! Everything was delicious and the care that went into every detail, from the pairings to the presentation, highlighted the talent and skill of this team.

Never again, I should've went to the 10th street one but atp I'm over it all together. The food was horrible!!! & the bartender who worked this morning 3/19/25 was super snotty and unpleasant, he heard me complain about how cold it was, my server also agreed but he decided it was a bright idea to open BOTH patio doors. I got up and left after mentioning while closing out how unprofessional I thought it was but I was left ignored. I only gave two stars for my server (she was new, but nice), and my smoothie. read more

Dinner for 6 while at an event in town. Wanted a place with good food, drinks and a place where we could talk and catch up. Kaldi hit all of these. The service was excellent and attentive without being over the top, I am not a brussel sprouts fan and really enjoyed their appetizer, so that is saying a lot. We also had the calamari and the loaded fries. Entrees included the steak and salad, chimichurri steak, scallops and a few of the pasta dishes. No dishes went back to the kitchen with food on them and there were no to go boxes either. The bread pudding and chocolate mousse were also excellent. I would highly recommend this nice neighborhood spot. read more

The atmosphere is wonderful. Really hip with a great bar. I met a group of women who I hadn't seen for over 20 years and we had such a wonderful time being able to talk yet. Still having the music in the background. The food was incredible. I highly recommend the trout. And I also had a dirty martini that was out of this world! Blue cheese, stuffed olives are a must. This is a great spot if you want a nice intimate dinner with solid, good food and great service. Melvin is wonderful! read more

Already been here three times since they opened earlier this month and the food has been consistently amazing! It can get a bit pricey but that is due to the high quality of their dishes. So far I have had the trout for dinner, lox and eggs for brunch and chicken salad for a takeout lunch during work hours (they are on the Toast app already!). I live across the street so I'm sure I will be back often. Finally, a fancy place to enjoy on my block!! read more

I drove 25 minutes through traffic to visit this location -- a social-style coffee shop -- only to be blocked at the door by the host, who informed me that laptops aren't allowed after 4 PM, abruptly interrupting my work call. This is part of a chain known for being laptop-friendly, where people typically read, work, or meet. Yet, despite the place being nearly empty, I was singled out while others nearby still had laptops open. The policy seemed inconsistently enforced. I've previously ordered food and drinks here, but this experience showed me the focus is less on hospitality and more on turning tables with attitude. I won't be returning -- and I wouldn't recommend it to others. read more

Really good tea and coffee. Food is solid too. Great atmosphere. I use it for workspace a few days a week.

Breakfast was pretty underwhelming. Potatoes serves like frozen ones. Bacon was tasty but unevenly cooked. Ambiance was nice and staff were friendly. read more

Long awaited gem. Food was excellent and quality. Everyone in our group was impressed. For appetizer we had the French onion soup. We had the halibut, and both steak options. For desert we had the dark chocolate mousse. Everything was on point. Cocktails and mock-tails were wonderful as well. Service was prompt, accommodating and friendly. Ambiance was comfortable and cozy. Welcome to the neighborhood! Glad you're here. read more

Very stylish place, reasonable prices and good service. The food and cocktails are very delicious

Served me raw chicken. Waitress (who was great) confirmed it was raw. Unfortunately the manager came by table. He pretended he was not aware of the issue. Then suggested it was maybe the paprika coloring the chicken instead of it the restaurant serving raw chicken. After I explained I had eaten some and i could tell it was raw the manager shrugged his shoulders. read more
