    Buck S.

    Back again for the fabulous cheese steak! Onion rings! Crispy and delish! Fries just the same! Heidi was our wonderful waitperson/bartender. Always cheerful and on it! Love all the windows and TVs.! Thx again Ms. Heidi!!!

    Open Road Grill is amazing. My father went here to meet a friend and highly recommended it. I was out in the area and decided to try it out myself with a friend living out in Fals Church. I had very yummy fish tacos and a beer that was on sale for happy hour which I enjoyed as well. The ambiance is nice and service is fast, friendly, and efficient.

    So good! The wings were phenomenal, would come back just for these! The ribs were amazing as well. Pretty casual place, good for groups. Good service as well :)

    Wow. What a great experience. The server was super attentive and well versed on the menu. Place was spacious and had a nicely sized bar and booth options. The food, AMAZING. Ordered Brussels sprouts as a starter, delicious. The bleu cheese and bacon was the perfect addition. The wings, phenomenal! Some of the best wings I've had in quite some time. Ordered their spicy wings, which weren't that spicy but they were very tasty and had a good kick. Also ordered their lemon pepper nuggets, which were tasty as well. Can't wait to return and try more of the menu.

    Ambiance: large open plan restaurant with a bar area towards the left side. That is also where they have Trivia on Tuesday evenings 7-9pm. Service: the manager came over make sure we were ok throughout the night. Our waitress was awesome. Very attentive and sweet. Food: we came for HAPPY HOUR and TRIVIA. It was National Oysters Day so a few of us ordered raw oysters and Fried oyster Po Boy. We all seemed to love the chicken bites. I had the Buffalo Garlic sauce which was spicy but super flavorful. Tuesday Trivia night was a full house so plan accordingly for parking. They do have an overflow lot for parking across from the Sunoco gas station on the corner before you get to the restaurant.

    Open Road Burger

    I didn't realize they were a conglomerate of other restaurants. Because I had ordered online, I didn't use the traditional entrance. This little strip of restaurants are all part of the same group. Open Road, Trio Grill, and Roadhouse. The parking lot was packed! They even had a tenant trying to help guide cars to available spots. There aren't a lot of spots to split between 3 restaurants, for 6PM on a Saturday, it was pretty crowed. Luckily if you are picking up there are roughly 2 reserved spots for pick up orders. I got the Open Road burger and it was quite delicious. They ask how you want your burger cooked and the way it came made it almost look like an onion volcano. Little peek into the burger. The taste was quite good, pretty standard and well cooked. It also came with a side of fries. One thing with the takeout though was that there weren't many ketchup packets included. I took a peek at their daily specials and happy hour menu and I understand why it can get crowded. I was definitely eyeing the $1 oyster Tuesdays or Fajitas Fridays.

    $1 Oyster Night!
    Kevin A.

    I've tried this place on a Tuesday night and it happened to be oyster night so we got a dozen oysters. Overall really solid for $1 oysters. Additionally, we got a philly cheesesteak and their original cheeseburger and it was all really good. I like how they have a million TVs so you can watch whatever sport you're interested in. I can imagine they have a lot of guests on the weekends during the prime time games. Overall, nice clean spot with a big menu offering!

    Chili cheese fries
    Chandler D.

    My friends and I came for both HH and trivia! Open Road does trivia every Tuesday night so need to get there early for not only good seating but also for parking as the parking lot is small! Food and service were great! We sat on the outdoor patio! We ordered chili cheese fries and chicken bites. During trivia they also have $3 beers!

    Great food! Always loved going there with my family and seems like the staff there are all very friendly. I love the vibes of the place and will definitely be coming back!

    Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Emily G.

    I love the open road location in Rosslyn! I came here for an event which had the patio/private space booked. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich which was decent and I felt it was fairly priced. Wow I love their fries!!! Kudos to the staff that night who was were all friendly and helpful throughout the night despite the crowds of the private event!

    Blackened Chicken Caesar Salad
    John H.

    I've had take out from Open Road several times and they make some of the best burgers in the DMV area. This was our first time to the restaurant. It's a nice place next to their sister restaurant Trio Grill which is more upscale and have excellent food (review later). Both places have outdoor seating that is enclosed for comfort. We came to Open Road for brunch. Service was great and the food was great. We ordered the Huevos Rancheros, Breakfast Tacos and Blackened Chicken Caesar Salad. All dishes were great: the chicken on the salad was especially good. Don't know why this place wasn't in our regular rotations but have now added it. Worth a trip for the great service and food here (especially their burgers).

    Breakfast tacos
    Claudia L.

    We were in brunch mode and headed toward a nearby diner (yes, the one that rhymes with sliver whiner) but it then dawned on me that we should try something new - and I'm so glad we did. Friendly people in a casual yet tasteful place - and I really enjoyed my breakfast tacos! My pals loved the burgers and full breakfast. I'll definitely be back!

    Fish tacos
    Lily R.

    Very affordable and very high quality food. They give unlimited free popcorn as an appetizer, the fish tacos are amazing.

    Hi! Are (very well behaved) dogs allowed in the patio area?

    We've been here twice and I've never seen dogs there. I'm not sure of their policy but, in my opinion, the setup isn't conducive to pets. While they do have seating outdoors, it's a covered area which makes it a little more intimate feeling. Not… Read more

    It's been quite a few years since a very meh experience, so when my husband suggested it today, I…read morethought, 'okay, let's give them another try.' (I didn't remind him that my experience last time was subpar.) All that to say, we went in with open hearts and minds - and hungry bellies. Took a while to get our drinks, but the coffee was good once it arrived. Did have to ask for cream, which again l, took a little while to receive. Our orders were taken and after a while our food arrived. I found it pretty funny that my Make Your Mark breakfast, in which you get to choose the style of egg and the meat, contained the wrong meat. Clearly you don't really have any say in the matter. The sausage patties that I had ordered were not there. Instead, I noticed after the servers had delivered the food, there was bacon on my plate and no sausages. Not a big deal, but we did have breakfast for dinner one night last week, including bacon, so I had really wanted those sausage patties! However, it really wasn't worth flagging down our server who seemed non-existent once the food was delivered and I tucked in. Everything was fine, though I find it really odd that they don't season their eggs or hash browns at all. Unlike during COVID, thankfully, they do have salt and pepper on the table now. My husband began eating his sausage gravy biscuits and made a disgusted face. His gravy was barely warm. Isn't that odd? Wouldn't you think it came from a bubbling vat of hot gravy, poured over oven hot biscuits? He's rarely one to notice anything worth complaining about, but this put him over. He flagged down our waitress when he saw her next and asked if she could heat it up. She said she would just ask for a new plate to be made. Fine, though we knew that would take a while. He finally received it after our son and I were both finished our meals. No problem, I drank my coffee and we chatted while he ate. The only problem, was that it seemed to be the same temperature as the previous plate. Clearly, they are keeping the gravy barely warm. (Health safety?!) To top it all off, when we finally got the bill, which took asking for, they had put two meals of the sausage gravy biscuits. Now my husband had to complain again to get one of them removed. So, you leave feeling like you are the bad guy or the grumpy patron and it sours the whole experience. I am certain we will not return. Oh well, hopefully you have a better experience - twice is enough for us, though.

They bumped our reservation and said they'd give the next table available. That took 90 mins. All the while we asked how long it would be and they kept saying 10 mins.. We could've gone to another establishment had we known. There were about 30 other people waiting for tables who were in similar situations. Had reservations but tables weren't leaving and the staff didn't want to rush those sitting and relaxing after paying the bill. Get it. Obviously it's a problem and they haven't figured a way to deal with it. We asked for the manager as we had kids and we were only 5 mins late and not given proper wait times . The manager has no business being the service industry. He said he was getting the table ready, though that were told that 20 mins prior. When we told him, heyelled at us and said he will deny us a table and will cancel our reservation. It was threatening and the whole place stared at his shocked at his response. For the sake of hungry kids we kept our cool, ate, and swore we'd never go back again. The food was good. The servers were nice. What horrible treatment by the manager who could've handle this so much better. Why would we want to support such a businesses that tolerates this behavior. Not going back. Ruined our whole birthday celebration.

I'm a newer vegetarian, and I've tried falafel from quite a few places at this point and if I'm being honest, I had started to get a little turned off by it. But this place completely changed that for me. Their falafel wrap? Absolutely incredible. You can truly taste the difference. They make their falafel fresh daily, and it shows. It was perfectly seasoned, savory, and MOUTH-WATERING. Not dry, not overly heavy, just pure perfection. I'm still thinking about it, and I would go back just for that wrap alone. We also tried a few appetizers, and everything hit. The fries were perfectly crisp (not soggy at all), the Brussels sprouts were packed with flavor, and the hummus was smooth and fresh, exactly what you want. The crudités were also a great touch and paired really well with everything else and whatever homemade sauce they're using? That took everything to another level. My friend ordered a salad, and even that stood out. The beets were incredibly fresh, and you could tell that quality is a priority across the entire menu. Beyond the food, the experience itself was just as good. The ambiance is beautiful, very calming and welcoming, the kind of place you actually want to sit and enjoy your meal. The service was also top-tier. The servers were patient, attentive, and really detail-oriented. My friend has a gluten allergy, and they took extra care to make sure everything was handled properly, which we really appreciated. What really sets Naja apart is how fresh everything tastes. Nothing felt pre-made or rushed. It all felt intentional and well-prepared. If you're vegetarian, or even just looking for a solid Mediterranean spot with fresh, flavorful food and great service, this is 10/10 worth checking out. I'll definitely be back.

Since this was lunch we were hoping for a little speed for the lunch rush. It was more like a lunch crawl. Our server was cordial and informative but couldnt save all the stars. Overall, try dinner here when you have to marinate and take it all the yummy Ness.

It's a nice atmosphere, not too stuffy but elegant enough for a nice dinner. The drinks are good, well mixed, and nice options whether you drink wine, beer, cocktails, or non-alcoholic options. The food, however, is very mediocre. They started with an amuse-bouche that was a fruit tart with cheese. Nice, light, and well balanced. We ordered the tuna tartare, along side a Japanese sweet potato dish and a salmon tartare that were both specials. The tartares were fine. Something you would get anywhere. The presentation was nice but their crisp or cracker was kind of useless as it doesn't have the structural strength to use as a vessel to eat the fish. The sweet potato was probably the best in terms of flavor albeit very rich. The main course is well things really fell apart. The beef dishes people ordered were either under cooked or over cooked. I got the grilled prawns which were limp and mushy. The veggies were underseasoned. The braised beef was small. I think everyone was underwhelmed with the main course. It's fine as a after work dinner spot but if you care about food, there are better options nearby.
