Baked potato soup and chicken pot, pie soup
Tara G.

I used to order from the Potbelly location in Northern Virginia. Always had a fantastic experience. Four years in Fredericksburg, first time getting food at this location. Ordered for takeout. Got the soup and sandwich combo, with the "Wreck" and a cup of loaded baked potato soup. I also purchased a cup of the chicken pot pie soup. With taxes my total was $16. I literally got one slice of see-through, thin slices of each of the meats on the sandwich. And they didn't even fill up my container for the potato soup. I will never order from this location again. Absolutely pathetic!

If you have not had potbelly yet, you need to. The sandwiches here are great. They hot food tastes really fresh and if you get the peppers, they have a solid kick. Much better tasting than other chain sandwich shops (i.e., Subway, Quiznos, etc.). This location is no different. Great food.

Better than your ordinary sandwich shop! Coming to this place , I was skeptical, because I was thinking , is this just another ordinary sandwich shop? Well folks, I was wrong ...my belly was mind blown, my tastebuds was happy, and my mood was no longer "#hangry " I order a 9" regular bun roast beef , with mushroom, crispy bacon, and a delicious avocado sandwich. For the side , they recommend something new for me, which are jalapeño chips. The contrast of flavors and textures was fantastic. Taking a bite of a chip afterwards?, and feeling the lingering heat? . I was just in love !. Definitely a great sandwich shop!

$13 for a big Italian these days, expensive, underwhelming, service was incredibly slow, just not the potbelly's I used to appreciate. Generally bland, even their whole pickles are much less enjoyable than they used to be.

5 Stars all day long. This location is a great one! Let me start by saying I love Potbelly Sandwich Shops. I've been to 2 or 3, and this one is right up there with being great. The workers were attentive right when I walked in. Even the way they took my order I felt like a sandwich professional was handling my sandwich (as odd as that sounds). They made my sandwich quickly, and were very efficient in getting me checked out and ready to eat! Very glad they did because I was hungry... I got the Grilled Chicken and Cheddar. It is my go-to, but I've tried others in the past! I also tried their mesquite bbq chips, which were a-mazing! I can't wait to visit this location more often in the near future! Thanks guys!

Food was very good but the place just seemed tired! No enthusiasm from the servers and just a drab and out dated interior.

They close early, don't believe the hours. The staff will refuse to serve before the actual closing time.

Been here a few times now and have not had a bad experience. Good lunch spot. The mushroom melt is good so is the meatball sub.

Our bartender/server was Lashone and she was funny, fast and friendly! She was pouring drinks for the ENTIRE restaurant and didn't miss a beat!! The breakfast menu is small but everything sounded fantastic. I chose the Steak Tacos; my husband chose the brie and bacon frittata (added by the chef since the quiche was sold out. Steak tacos were delicious (see pic). Menu said they had steak, cheesy scrambled eggs, tomato salsa, breakfast potatoes and cilantro. I didn't see or taste any potatoes, but the tacos were still delicious! I'd only recommend draining the salsa through a sieve because of the excess juice affecting the integrity of the tortilla. My husband's frittata was awful. The eggs were dry; he compared them to "eggs at the bottom of the warming tray at a cheap breakfast buffet." The chef also served a side salad alongside. My husband asked about subbing potatoes and Ms. Lashone made it happen. She was the star of our brunch: drinks were delicious, the conversational quips were quick and funny. She was attentive without being intrusive and made sure we felt welcomed and taken care of. 5 stars for her and my food; 1 for the frittata. I don't want to average it and tank the rating. We'll be back soon to see Lashone!

While Firebirds is a chain, the food, service and dining experience are all very good and this…read morelocation is no exception. For a steakhouse, the prices are relatively reasonable but by nature it is a bit more expensive than average. The service has been consistently excellent and the staff are friendly. There is a nice bar and some seating in the bar area as well. In the cooler weather the bar area seating enjoys a well placed fireplace. I recommend the double black diamond martini. The steaks, chicken and salmon dishes I have had I enjoyed. I think the NY strip is my favorite and I like to get the port mushrooms and a baked potato as the sides. I tried the Tomahawk pork chop recently and it was delicious and a generous amount of food. Most steak places also know how to properly cook fish and the Salmon is always very good here. The three course meal deal is a good value if you are hungry and the dessert is a full size. My one complaint is that the last two visits, the air conditioning did not seem to be working properly and the restaurant seemed a bit uncomfortable. Please fix your HVAC!

The chicken with balsamic and roasted tomatoes was super as well! There were a few more items at my table like the chili and the seabass which I didn't get photos of, but tried and enjoyed. I think it's a little expensive, but the service was fantastic. This would be a good spot if celebrating something in Fredericksburg and didn't want to go downtown for a good meal.
