The food was all delicious, perfect portions and priced just right for what you get. The poppers were unique and satisfying, the trufflefries were crispy and perfect, and all of our entrees were interesting and full of flavor. Honestly their specials were bombtoo. This will probably become a regular spot for us. 10/10.

They offer an extensive gluten-free (GF) menu, and a variety of small plate apps and large plate entree meals. The food was prepared perfectly. My gluten-sensitive girlfriend had the chicken cacciatore- tender baked chicken on a bed of large grain rice and sauce prepared with subtle tasty herbs and spices. I had the pork tenderloin schnitzel, two large pounded filets with warm potato salad (debated heavily on selecting the bourbon steak tips). The extraordinary food was just the beginning. Not only did we received excellent service from Matthew M., we were able to meet the gracious owner “Tek” who was actively working the floor. Tek had earlier answered my call for a reservation, and was accommodating when we ran 30 minutes late- making sure we had a table so we could dine and still make our nearby concert. All the staff were team players, helping with running food, bussing tables, and keeping water glasses topped up. I needed a pick me up, and Matthew personally made my espresso! The staff all appeared happy and on mention of Tek to Matthew, he said he wouldn’t want to work anywhere else- Tek is an “awesome boss”! Highly recommended Tryst in Arlington! You won’t be disappointed!
