    Ahhhh....another Great America restaurant but with a Mexican/Southwestern themed menu. The hostess said they are known for their fajitas. Like all Great American restaurants, the service is really good and consistent. We were greeted by our server. We already knew we wanted to try the fajitas. And of course the house chopped salad and community bread. We got our salad in 2 minutes, before our water & bread. LOL. The salad was served very cold and it was refreshingly good. Consistently good. Then our bread came out (Ozzy rolls, slices of sourdough & raisin bread) with their sweet butter. Again, consistently good. Now when we got the faijitas, this is where disappointment comes in. The guac and pico weren't as flavorful as other Tex/Mex/SW restaurants. And the rice was basmati with fennel? The beans needed more smokey pork flavor and was a little too watery. We love onions but they were cut way too thick/fat and over cooked. The chicken was juicy but didn't have the signature chargrilled flavor. I did like they left the chicken skin on and I also liked the chargrilled jalapeno pepper but it was missing red/green bell peppers. The good: service, salad, bread. The bad: fajitas Won't be ordering the fajitas again. Very disappointed. :(

    The food was delicious. Indoor seating is available. The restaurant is neat, clean, and organized. Placing a takeout order was simple and straightforward. Our order was ready in a timely manner. Everything was neatly wrapped and ready to go. My incredibly rich husband paid for it all.

    Silverado is a great local spot to go to, part of the GAR chain. The food is top notch, consistent, the service is always amazing, and the atmosphere is always fun. Whether going for family dinners, date nights, or meeting friends for drinks, Silverado is a can't miss option. This is in our rotation of local eateries. Only thing to really consider is the cell phone service inside, as the brick building can cause bad phone service but it does not affect the dining experience in any way.

    The food at Silverado is sooo good. We had the ribs, 6oz filet, and 3 baskets of the Ozzie rolls. Por tip: do NOT fill up on the rolls, they are delicious but try a salad if you're super starving. The server, Dawud was very attentive and even brought me a new Sprite when the first was as flat as a box. The ribs were slow cooked and the portion is HUGE! Can't wait to have my leftovers for late night munchies. For dessert we had apple pie and coffee cream brûlée. The Brûlée was TO DIE FOR! I loved the crispy edges and the filling was sweet and creamy. Five stars all around! Thank you GAR and Dawud!

    This was our first time here and have heard great things from our neighbors. We were excited to partake in the festivities of Cinco de Mayo and to chow down some Tex-Mex. Part of the Great American Restaurants chain, this place is located conveniently in the Annandale Shopping Center. Parking is plentiful as it is shared with the surrounding businesses. Upon entry, you are greeted by a freindly staff member and the ambiance is associated with Tex-Mex cuisine. We made a reservation for our party, but there were plenty of empty seats. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. The pricing was a little on the higher side ranging from $30+ per dish. I had the Drunken Ribeye and it was tender, but more on the fatty end. The fajitas were delicious and enough to make 2 tacos. Overall was a good experience. Enjoy!

    Had dinner with 4 friends and 1 toddler and had as usual an excellent meal. The space has a southwestern feel and there is a mixture of tables and booths as well as a large bar area. Our server was extremely nice and tentative. Also the manager was very nice and let us bring in our own dessert which was very nice.

    5/2/24 lunch: ive been sooo curious about this silverado bec it's part of the great american resto family. coastal flats has my favorite salad and i looove looove going to both tysons and fairfax locations. i always leave happy. i enjoy mike's american grill too. ive been to patsy's, carlyle, randy's, best buns, ozzie's, jackson's. all the things! it's ok........aaay here at silverado. yes, i did have my standards set very high as a coastal flats fanatic but even as a stand alone resto, this place wasnt very good. we went during a thursday lunch and i was so surprised. the hostess asked if we had a reservation- for a thursday- at lunch. it's actually VERY BUSY here!!! we did get a table. they charge for ozzie rolls here but give free chips and salsa. that really confused me. just give me a 1 free yuuummy ozzie roll!??!!! my mom's go to sandwich wherever we go, is always a crabcake so she got one here. it was skinny and so small and tiny. it was sad looking at it!!! i got sad. she said the sauce they put on overwhelmed the sandwich and she couldn't taste "crab". i got the lunch portion of chicken fajitas. i enjoyed the razzle dazzle of the steam but who doesnt. i think i remember their menu saying they have "WORLD famous fajitas". absolutely not. no they dont. they cant. it was one of the most boring fajita meals ive ever had. the chicken didnt have flavor and my cheese didnt melt. MY CHEESE DIDNT MELT! the beans looked canned. i do not rec the fajitas at all and they need to go back to fajita school if they want to make the claim they have world famous fajitas. my dad wasnt feeling well so he only got a dessert. no comments on the dessert. there was an off-putting exchange where i could tell our waiter didnt like my dad. the waiter had a memorized script for the specials and my dad pointed at his water, during the waiter's super long soliloquy, hinting for a straw for his water. that's all it took and he didnt like my dad, baha. during ordering, he asked if we were ready to order and turned his whole body to me, "we'll start with you." okay body language. im not writing this place off, but if i go back... it'll be for a simple salad. and itll prob be a year from now! positives: i liked the salsa and the hostess was cool.

    We have been wanting to try Sweetwater Tavern for some time now and we're glad we managed to find…read morethe time for lunch! It was busy but we were seated and served immediately. Service was consistently good and we were able to figure out what we wanted. Definitely recommend ordering the dinner rolls for the table! so yummy! like donuts! The sandwich and shoe string fries were tasty. I was very pleased with my salad with hand breaded fried chicken! You can absolutely taste the difference! Would come back to try more of the menu. PS They sell beer to go!

    First let me say Everytime we come into town I want to eat here for the Ozzie rolls (I love them,…read morethe best). I got salmon, which was good just make sure you like a smoky taste as it has one. My husband got ribs and he said they were good too. The waitress was on point and kept checking on us refilling our drinks. It wasn't over crowded for 4th of July and I do think it is decorated beautifully. Now, couple things that are weird. I asked for to go cup for my full glass of lemonade so it wasn't wasted and we were informed they have no to go cups. However, they do to go orders, but no drinks... that's weird. 2nd, they advertise that you can get 4 of their house made beers to take home, here is the catch you can't mix match them to get different ones. We wanted to get 4 different ones to bring back to NC for a friend and could only get 4 of the same kind. Which we did, but no where does it say you can't mix match them. We were told their POS systems isn't set up to be able to do this. I do love their food, but come on get to go cups.

    Yummy cocktails. Can't taste the alcohol at all - don't know if that's cuz there isn't enough or if…read moreit's masked well enough... Anyways - Food is very yummy. Came here with a large group of friends and we ate very well!! All the dishes were yummy, so can't complain. Army stew, kimchi pancake, corn cheese, etc. Many shareables and perfect for big groups to split. Also they have somaek towers which is pretty cool and niche! Service was great too. They were playing country music but we asked for it to be changed and they were very accommodating! BTW at night, the lighting in the restaurant is a bit dark and food looks very contrasted dark. Idk if this matters to anyone but makes reds look extremely pigmented in the light.

There only seemed to be one or two waiters in the whole restaurant and we were checked up on maybe once after receiving our food, even though it was shockingly empty. The food itself was good, rosè tteokbokki was spicy and texture was perfect. Kimchi pancake was also crispy and had a good ratio of batter to kimchi, but it was pretty bland and definitely needed the sauce. Kkanpungi was decent as well as the buddaejiggae and prices were fair. Drink pictures may be misleading so make sure to look at the description! Anyways the whole experience felt like we were just eating in the dark with quiet background music. Don't expect anything for birthdays either. Anyways would go back for the food but extremely lacking ambiance wise.

I wasn't feeling up to the big chains and places I wanted to try seemed to close early. Luckily this place was open and I had been wanting to try it for a while. Definitely it let a hidden gem! There are some parking spots right in front, although not many. There is a decent amount of seating, but it would be tight if you had a large party. My partner did note that the bathrooms weren't that great. You immediately get served complementary chips and salsa. They were pretty basic, but not bad. We ordered the following: + Papusas (Pork and Cheese & Loroco and Cheese) - Decent, although I prefer the Loroco (an edible flower bud). + Pollo à la Primavera (chicken dish) - Yummy, especially the sauce which mixes well with their hot/spicy sauce too! I could do without the salad dressing. + Camarones con Calabeza (shrimp dish) - Same as above! Note they leave the tails on. + Natural Juices (Mango and Maranon) - So refreshing! I loved the Maranon (cashew apple) was a wonderful burst of tropical sweetness with a subtle nutty taste. I appreciate that for the pupusas they had the foresight to provide my partner and I two plates so we could sphere the papusas. The portion sizes of the entrees were great for the price. It did take a while for the staff to swing by so that we could get boxes and the check. Note that credit cards and mobile pay are accepted. I definitely wouldn't mind coming back again to try more items on their menu.
