One of my friends is a big fan of this restaurant, so my other friend and I decided to join her for brunch. The staff was friendly, and the restroom was clean, apart from a paper towel on the floor. It seemed that everyone else was also happy with their meals. I ordered an apple salad with shrimp and was delighted by the generous portion of shrimp included. My friend is a member of the Matchbox rewards program, which allowed her to earn points during our brunch. If you find yourself visiting this restaurant frequently, it’s definitely worth signing up to earn rewards on your meals and drinks. Overall, I would highly recommend this place for a bite to eat.

However, the mini burgers were outstanding, and the onion straws were fried just right—crispy and tasty! The service was friendly, but it was a bit slow. I think the waiter could have paid a little more attention, especially since the restaurant wasn't very crowded. Despite this, I would certainly come back for the mini burgers and onion straws. I'm also excited to try their family-style bottomless brunch with unlimited mimosas!

The food is truly a treat for the palate. I relished the gigantic meatball, crafted from beef, veal, pork, and served with a pepperoni sauce, accompanied by a delightful piece of bread—an ideal lunch choice. This dish, categorized as a starter by Matchbox, was incredibly satisfying and tasty. I also got the mambo chicken pizza to-go, and I look forward to returning to try more items from the menu. Until next time, Matchbox!

We will make a point to go back to this location. We have one in Reston have been many times to realize it was never a good experience Edie

Our meal was a bit delayed due to a mix-up, but we didn’t mention it; the manager kindly came over to apologize and offered to comp one of our meals. My husband adored his Cobb salad, claiming it's the best he's ever had. I enjoyed the salmon salad, which was cooked to perfection.
