    One of the best restaurants in Arlington. Blackened mahi and the Ahi salad were both great. The only small complaint was we were in a small alcove that was pretty crowded and a little noisy. I was surprised Bistro Mele has no reservations for lunch but Circa was wide open. Probably the parking issue because both are comparable with quality and prices

    Long time lover of this restaurant. We now live in San Diego, and every time we visit our families in Virginia we dine here. Daniel was outstanding and fun to talk with. I always get the crispy flounder which is exotic and super flavorful. It is a whole fish which you will have to navigate, but so worth it. Get the sauced on the side so you can control the heat. The oysters were delicious last night too. Save room for the key lime pie. Only minor suggestion is to serve the after drinks before the dessert. We will see you again on our next trip East.
