Reviews for Carlyle in Arlington, VA
Fantastic lunch service and food. I had the rock fish special. Keep in mind that when they ask if you want the bread basket,... that is an extra and not complimentary although it is from the adjacent bakery and very good! Very interesting, almost Art DecoAmerican decor with two floors. Read more
There is a reason why I keep coming here. It’s the service !!!! And the food. I have been coming here for 23yrs. I have had... everything on menu. I’m here a lot. The food is always perfect. For the off chance something is missed. They fix it right awayapologize and send the manager over every time. Some of My faves : crab cake, crab fritters, mango chicken salad, all thedeserts but the pecan apple holy cow… Today I was help by few people waitresses Kat, Rosario and manager Adele weregreat! Today I tried the new Crab imperial dip. Sooo good lots of crab and good balance of flavors. Carlyle or Carlyle Grands asI call it keep introducing new dishes. Read more
Carlyle is my go-to for cozy ambiance, delectable food and great (as in prompt and attentive) service. Their fried calamari is... arguably the best; crisp, lender and light. This time we tried the (melt-in-your-mouth) hanger steak and the crab cakes and werenot disappointed (see photos). I don't mind that they skipped the inedible garnishes one would come to expect at upscalerestaurants; everything from the warm goat cheese salad to the key lime pie was on point. Read more
Nothing extraordinary about this place except for their decoration. The hostess didn’t seem like their like their jobs that... much. The food was overpriced and wasn’t even that good. We ordered steak frites, crab cake sandwich, and New Orleans Shrimp.They need to step up their game to increase the portion size or lower their prices because I don’t think our lunch was worth$92 Read more
Every dish I have tasted at the Carlyle is delectable! The food is cooked to perfection, the presentation is beautiful, and... every bite is a little bit of heaven. When you add the friendly attentive staff, you have an experience worth sharing. Read more
This was our first time trying there food out. Even though they are part of the Great American restaurant chain, the food was... AMAZING. Seriously, the devil eggs with bacon was scrumptious. I have never try anything like that, but I was a happy camper. Wehad the crab cakes, which were very moist, the beef ribs with fries and the spinach artichokes appetizer. All of it was sodelicious. The atmosphere was amazing, and the restaurant as huge. Please make a reservation before going. There is paid streetparking, and then it free after 8:00pm. Please check them out, you won't be disappointed. Read more
This is hands down one of the best restaurants I’ve been to this year. It’s beautifully designed and has an Art Deco vibe.... Aside from the exceptional service from every staff member we encountered, our waiter did his absolute best to ensure we enjoyedour visit and we did! This was my first time visiting this restaurant; we dined in the main level dining room. Everything we ateand drank was good. I’m definitely looking forward to returning and trying more of their menu options. They had a wideselection and all the dishes we saw come out looked and smelled amazing! Give this place a try, you won’t be disappointed! Read more
Great date spot in shirlington. Saw some other pictures of the deviled eggs and was not disappointed, they’re unique and... delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly and the prime rib sandwich had lots of meat and was great too Read more
