Hamrock's Restaurant is located within the Moore-McCandlish House (built 1842) in the heart of historic Fairfax City. We've been proud to serve delicious made-to-order American dishes using fresh ingredients since our establishment in 2016. We also have a wonderful hand-selected wine list to enhance your dining experience. Approximately eighty-percent of our menu is-- or can be-- gluten-free, as we use only canola and olive oil in all of our cooking. Some of our best-selling dishes are our southern fried chicken, grilled meatloaf, and crab cakes-- all which are gluten free! Other menu favorites include our deviled eggs, firecracker shrimp, Atlantic grilled salmon, roasted pork tenderloin, and penne pasta with andouille sausage & shrimp. We have beautiful year-round outdoor seating options on our wrap around porch (we have heaters!) In the warmer months, we also open our courtyard. We're also more than happy to accommodate business dinners or other special occasions in private rooms.

    As always, the Liberty Tavern had great happy hour food and prices. Good atmosphere, not too noisy. Great place to meet a couple of friends. We have a regular monthly get together there.

    We have been twice this week, so I am putting the two visits together. Probably won't keep that pace but enjoyed it the first time and still had other things in the menu that we wanted to try. If you are a traditionalist, get the lobster roll if it is a special. It is a real New England lobster roll no odd adds. The pumpkin bisque was amazing and could have been a meal in itself with an order of hush puppies as an appetizer. The chickens, both Kelly's favorite and pecan crusted were both great and the white wine steamed muscles were a winner. We ended both meals with the bread pudding also worth having. We will be going back.

    This was my first visit here and I chose it because of its gluten free options, which they had more than average. Everything we ordered was delicious. The fire shrimp appetizer, the lobster bisque, the lamb chops, the crab cakes, the potatoes au gratin, and the star, the flourless chocolate cake. I didn’t have high expectations but was pleasantly blown away and I can’t wait to come back here the next time I am in town. The service was a little spotty and slow but like I said, I’ll be back and can’t wait to try more gf items! What a gem in the middle of Fairfax!
