Best Waterfront Restaurants in Lorton

Everything was picture perfect. The food is always amazing, but especially fantastic last night. The restaurant was full, but still felt cozy and warm. Carlos is our favorite waiter and he never disappoints. He always makes us feel like we are the most important patrons. We were able to change our reservation from 2 to 6 people earlier in the day. We were celebrating our anniversary. We had our wedding reception at Bistro l’Hermitage 6 years ago and it was a magical event that we will treasure forever. The entire waitstaff always make us feel like royalty! Thank you for an enchanting evening!

We ate outside and while it was humid it wasn’t terrible as there were fans. There was live music and we could hear it but couldn’t make out the songs. Nautical gnocchi was delicious for me. My husband had the dirty chicken. Portion size was good and we each could have finished our meals but saved some for lunch tomorrow.

The filet mignon and lobster tails were cooked perfectly and tasted great. We could not have asked for any better service. We liked sitting outside on a warm day in March. The view is of docked boats and I-395 and US Rte 1 bridges over the Occaquan River, but things are always moving.
