Darna Restaurant and Lounge

What an intimate and nice-looking space!I met up with a friend for hookah and drinks in the early evening and had a great time. The waitress was extremely nice, answered our questions about the drinks, and made some great recommendations!My only gripe is that the price is crazy expensive, and they have a "mandatory drink or bottle purchase" later in the evening to stay at a table. We were asked to pay, move to another spot, or leave. It kind of ruined the evening for us, so we decided to leave.

My partner and I came during happy hour and ordered a couple of rounds of their appetizers + a cocktail. The food was average and our server didn't really check in on us in a timely manner. We were able to get waters but server never refilled it, just came by to take orders. We were the only table outside on the patio/rooftop. We automatically got charged a 20% gratuity on our bill which we felt was unjustified because we were only a party of 2, ordering appetizers during happy hour and sitting in a couch+coffee table setting (not like the typical table service). We will not be back.

What a place.. they just did a very nice quality renovation.. we went on Tuesday night Lina served us and made us planning to come back again soooooon. She is amazing guys making a gooooood drinks !!

So if don't know..Darna has brunch on the weekends (I was very surprised to find this out) with a bottomless option! I'm not going to lie, it was a little weird sitting in somewhat empty lounge having brunch. While there were a couple people there casually smoking hookah and noon, we were the only ones there for brunch. The brunch comes as three courses and includes American and Lebanese-inspired food.Cons:- While it's supposed to be three courses, they brought everything out at once (see photos), so our food wasn't hot. Some of the dishes must've been sitting out while they prepared the rest of dishes. - Although there was no one near us and the place was practically empty, one of the servers informed us that we couldn't combine two small (and I mean smalll) tables so we could have some space to eat our food. All our food and drinks were moved to one small table for four people, making the eating arrangement uncomfortable and crowded (again, even though there was NO ONE sitting at any of the three tables to our left or right). - The food was just alright, I'd give it 3/5. The starters included different types of dips and flatbread. Both were tasty but nothing memorable. Some the sliders were hits and some were misses. My favorite was the falafel slider and the fried chicken was on the drier side so it my least favorite. I wasn't a fan of the third course in general. For the chicken and waffles, the chicken is mixed in with the batter rather than it being on top. The execution missed the mark. The waffle was thick and on the drier side. The same goes for chicken pieces that we couldn't even taste, it just tasted like mush. No amount of syrup could salvage the taste or texture. Pros:- While the food is bite-size, it's plenty so you'll leave you full and satisfied.

Food is amazing portion are very reasonable. Restaurant is very well decorated with Pakistani art

The club was going up on a Tuesday - I have never seen so many people having fun next door to a Jiffy Lube and across the street from a gas station in my life.Somehow, from that set of auto maintenance-relates surroundings in a suburban neighborhood in Northern Virgina, is an upscale nightclub that would not be out of place in any party capital.Late night food, hookah and bottle service are the keys, with a top notch sound system and lighting that's hard to capture in a photo, but definitely sets a party mood. I'm not sure how this is during the day, but don't laugh out of hand when your friend pulls into the oil-change spot on a Tuesday night - they might have a secret in store.

Great spot to drink,Listen to gods music and smoke the hookah. Parking is limited but the atmosphere is everything

This place is as awful as the other reviewers say. Expect a fake Miami club vibe with overpriced everything and low quality hookah. We came here on a whim and bought a table so we weren't squeezed in between drunk college kids. Even then the service was subpar. Do not recommend coming here if you're older than 25. That said, the people watching is pretty hilarious and the DJ was decent.

I came to this place with 2 friends . We were the onlyBlack people there on a Tuesday night (lastnight June 11th) but we did not let that stop us from trying to have a good time . The Server was rude from the beginning. She needed my id and debit card to get a drink . I've never been anywhere that required an id . She made it a problem when we inquired about it and got very rude with us and walked away in the middle of us talking . It then became a big argument. Upon talking to a few people I heard this place is racist . Do not give yourMoney to them and there over priced drinks. This place needs to be shut down

It was my 1st time there, and my last. The place seemed nice but let me tell you, the security/bouncers are a wreck, one of them especially. Pushing and shoving and pushing women for no reason. Not to mention the threats by one of security guys. Very unprofessional. Did not feel safe with that type of security walking around.Very unlikely I will be letting people know about this place. Establishment seems cool but security is way over their heads.
