My recent experience at Arlington Rooftop Bar & Grill unfolded as a culinary escapade that, regrettably, veered away from the extraordinary and found itself dwelling in the realm of mediocrity. Nestled in the heart of Arlington, this establishment offers a rooftop setting that, while promising scenic views, did not manage to uplift the overall dining experience.
To commence on a less favorable note, the culinary offerings at Arlington Rooftop Bar & Grill failed to evoke a sense of delight. The food, regrettably, was below par and lacked the distinctive flavors that set memorable dining experiences apart. The menu, while diverse, seemed to miss the mark in terms of execution and overall taste, leaving patrons longing for a more satisfying culinary journey.
Adding to the lackluster impression was the cleanliness aspect. A dining establishment's commitment to cleanliness is paramount, and unfortunately, Arlington Rooftop Bar & Grill did not meet the expected standards. The overall tidiness of the venue left much to be desired, detracting from the ambiance and contributing to a sense of discomfort during the meal.
The state of the restroom facilities further amplified concerns about cleanliness. A clean and well-maintained restroom is a fundamental expectation, and the conditions I encountered were below the standards one would anticipate from a venue aiming to provide a pleasant dining experience. The unclean toilets significantly impacted the overall impression and raised questions about the establishment's attention to hygiene.
On a more positive note, the rooftop setting does hold promise, providing potential for a vibrant and enjoyable atmosphere. However, the lack of cleanliness and below-average culinary offerings dampened what could have been a redeeming feature.
In terms of value for money, Arlington Rooftop Bar & Grill left patrons questioning the correlation between cost and the overall experience. The perceived discrepancy between the price paid and the quality received may prompt diners to reassess the value proposition of this establishment.
In conclusion, Arlington Rooftop Bar & Grill, while offering a potentially appealing rooftop setting, fell short in crucial aspects such as food quality and cleanliness. Addressing these concerns would be instrumental in transforming this venue into a more compelling and enjoyable destination for patrons seeking a well-rounded...
Read moreLocated conveniently off Wilson and super easy to find. I came here on a Saturday evening to watch my alma mater playing against our biggest rivalry (represented by all my friends that I went to the bar with). Parking was super easy to find on the street on a Saturday (late) afternoon, not sure if its a good/bad thing.
The bar is located on the 2nd (maybe the 3rd) floor and the ambiance was so nice. Ceiling was high so you don't feel that you are cramping in the typical sports bar. It feels very upscale as the area was very spacious, sparkling clean floor and everything was just so clean and neat.
I did not order anything and just ate off from my friends' food because I was that into the game! The few bites of burger and fries didn't taste bad. I remember the orders were delivered only moments after and it looked pretty decent. My friends ordered a lot of drinks (because their team was losing) and we stayed there for a good 5 hours. During that time, the bar was hardly ever full (or even half-full) but it might be a different story during those late...
Read moreI normally never leave reviews but this place needs one... I do not recommend this place. The wait staff was rude, rolled their eyes at us, and were unprofessional. We tried to order a frozen drink from the menu given to us on the 2nd floor and they informed us that frozen drinks cannot be ordered anywhere but the rooftop. After explaining this she provided no solution or asked if we wanted something else. She told us we could go upstairs and get it ourselves... which we then did and they were unavailable.
After this scenario, they did not attend to us until we got our food. Once she came with our food, we asked if we could get drinks. She was too busy rolling her eyes to remember what we ordered and gave us an incorrect entree. She apologized and proceeded to eat the food behind the bar while talking about us and staring at us. The chicken tacos were disgusting and released a pool of liquids onto the plate.
This experience was incredibly distatesful, I am never going back and will not recommend...
