Restaurants near Courtyard by Marriott Alexandria Pentagon South

Went to the brunch on Christmas so it may not be a fair example. Food was great but it is a little hard to hear the servers and who you are with.

Wonderful service and the food was excellent. There are more favorites for me to order now: The coal fired I dishes really shine. The burger is always consistently great, and their avocado and shrimp salad is my favorite. The mushroom lasagna I ordered today is my new favorite. So light and elegant but so much depth of flavor. Scallops are always the best - my daughter who orders scallops everywhere she goes said that it was one of the best that she has had. The chicken was not done completely a small part of it was still a bit raw, and the swordfish was a bit tough. But all the sides were perfectly done. Hash browns and sweet potatoes are a must. The carrots were packed with flavor. The service was excellent.

Great Christmas Special Lobster Ravioli and Mulled Wine. We also ordered for a Fettuccine Alfredo (Shrimp) which wasn’t on the menu but they could make it, which was appreciable. All in all we had a great christmas eve dinner.

Quickly seated and swift service, good food and ambience and reasonable price.

The food was excellent and the service was great. Ruthies is very noisy making it somewhat hard to hear the server and talk at the table. It is still a wonderful restaurant and one of my favorites in Arlington.
