Reviews for Bazin's on Church in Vienna, VA
Food was great but, server was too quick to get items out of the way. Made reservations at 6 and showed up at 6:07. Had some... blonde bar tender telling us at 8 we had to leave because we were late to our reservations. If you like bad service and goodfood I guess try it. Read more

Had a good meal here before. Decided to try it again. Loved the rigatoni and sausage plate and my wife enjoyed the veal. Both... were delectable and a hearty portion. Will go again. Read more
I visited on a Saturday evening to refresh my memory of what this kitchen offers as one of the area’s upscale Modern American... eateries. The dining room has a cozy feel to go with its size. Noise levels rise as the evening progresses from quiet tomoderate. I sat at the 12-seat bar with the bartender greeting me within a couple of minutes. Service was uniformly attentiveand unobtrusive through my just over two hours there. The menu overall accommodates gluten-free appetites as stated by othersand tends to have rich offerings with cheeses and creams to accent starches and sauces for more items than not. I ordered fromboth the standard menu and the advertised special menu: tuna tartare and potato-onion ravioli for appetizers, rockfish and porkchop for mains, and key lime pie and strawberry shortcake for desserts. An aperol spritz as an opening drink had an assuringlyassertive flavor. The tartare texture was more chunky than other versions, but the flavors of the fish and avocado certainlycame through with a great tasting siracha vinaigrette. The presentation shrouds the actual tartare under the shadow of theflatbread chip and arugula and pickled onion garnish, but an enjoyable start to my meal was certainly there. The ravioli itselfhad a welcome al dente feel and a clean potato taste in the inside. I felt the amount of cream could be cut to be moreproportionate to the accompanying chive oil for more balance. The rockfish was cooked nearly perfectly, and I really enjoyed thecreaminess of the Parmesan orzo contrasted with earthy and slightly bitter spinach. The pork chop was grilled to the suggestedmedium temperature and remained a little juicy. The cheesy grits were cooked splendidly as were the brussel sprouts garnish anda well-portioned smattering of bacon shards. The red wine reduction sauce was very smooth with a pleasing consistency and nottoo sweet or over reduced. Both entree plates returned to the kitchen as clean as I could reasonably make them.

Made the reservation for a friend's birthday. The staff nailed it. The wine selection was wide and deep. The food was EXCELLENT.... Especially the salted caramel dessert at the end, which included a candle. Read more
This was my first visit to this restaurant and it was a nice experience. We sat in their patio area which was nice and cozy and... great social spot. The only thing I didn't like was as soon as I arrived for my 745 reservation, the hostess let me know therestaurant and patio close at 9. I understand she was sharing the hours but I felt rushed for a reservation that wasaccepted. Moving on to the food. I absolutely loved it. The seared salmon with lobster sauce was food I didn't know I needed.My friend ordered their signature sea bass and she enjoyed hers as well. I would definitely come back (at an earlier time) totry their braised short ribs. Read more
We stopped on our way to @Woltrap for early dinner @Bazin's...martini with blue cheese olives, amazing gazpacho, lamb lollipops... and blue cheese potatoes au gratin, and salted caramel tart with bitter chocolate ice cream, husband had the prime burger. Everything was delicious and service by Bella was impeccable as always! Read more
Nice place, terrific service. Had a hard time choosing an entrée as there were many excellent options. Wine list is very... pricey, especially for the lower-end bottles. $50-60 for some very average California offerings is not going to spur sales.Everyone at our 4-top thoroughly enjoyed their meal.
