Open Road - Rosslyn

Went here to watch the NFL Conference Championship Games on Sunday. They brought complementary popcorn to the table which was super yummy. We ordered the strawberry mojitos which might have been one of the best mojitos I have ever had (not too much ice, not too sweet). We ordered the mac and cheese, the brussels, and some wings. The mac and cheese was simple but good because it wasn't too cheesy, the brussel sprouts were pretty good but a little heavy on the blue cheese, and the wings were surprisingly super good for not being a wing spot. The staff was super friendly and attentive and the vibes were good overall. The lighting was a bit dim (not super ideal for watching the game) but it made the setting a little more intimate.

Attended with a 25+ group.Friends quoted below who participated. This was a group effort!4/5 Service was very attentive and managed the large party extremely well.3/5 Ambiance: generic urban 3/5 Food:Brussel sprouts w blue cheese: good combo of crunch of brussel sprouts and creamy blue cheese. 9/104/10 Calamari and peppers: very spicy.

Not heavy8/10 Bread pudding: surprisingly good.complex flavors. Not too soggy. 9/10 Vodka mojito- amazing. Super fresh. Smooth. Delicious but not too sweet.

This place is awesome! Quick Service, enjoyable ambiance and delicious food! Lots of TVs - just about every booth has access to a TV. My strawberry mojito had just the right amount of ice. The wings were perfectly cooked - juicy and not an overwhelming amount of sauce. Make sure to try the brussel sprouts! I generally don't like blue cheese but loved the blue cheese dressing on the brussel sprouts!

Average food. Delicious drinks. Great atmosphere. I had a burger and for some reason all places make them well done (even congratulations) and not medium.other than that food was decent, fries are more a hollow shells and not a full potato fry- if that makes sense? However the drink i had was absolutely delicious, ginger tea and whiskey, it was great. Atmosphere was relaxed and nice, service was great i really can't complain another it. Overall average place not much character. P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not the stars reflect that.

decided to try this place for lunch and was greeted with a unique touch--a welcome starter of popcorn. It was an interesting twist, though the water served wasn't up to the mark.For appetizers, we ordered the chicken bites, which turned out to be a highlight. The chicken was incredibly tender, with a perfectly balanced flavor that made it a delight to eat. For the main course, we went with the blackened salmon with spinach. The salmon was cooked to perfection, seasoned with just the right amount of spice to enhance its flavor. However, the spinach felt slightly underwhelming, as it seemed a bit too blanched for my taste.Overall, it was a good experience with a mix of hits and misses. A little improvement on the basics, like water quality, could elevate the experience further.

Dining at Open Road - Rosslyn was an absolute pleasure! Here's a breakdown of our experience:Food:Popcorn Starter: A fun and tasty surprise! The complimentary popcorn was a great way to kick off the meal.The Shrimp and Grits: Simply outstanding--easily among the best I've ever had.

Their excellent service made the experience even more enjoyable.Price:The prices were reasonable, especially considering the quality of both the food and service and the location. Great value overall!

Loved this place! Such a great date night spot. The aesthetic inside was really cool and they had the lights dimmed down enough to make it feel intimate which I loved. Their selection of beers and drinks were great with so much variety. Menu options looked amazing. Their burgers were amazing, the veggie burger was HANDS DOWN so good!!!! I'm really impressed. We even took leftovers to go and everything heated up so well the next day.Our waiter was very attentive and kind, he was the best.You get free popcorn at the beginning of your meal which was kinda funny but we loved it!Make sure you check out the speak easy they have downstairs! Very cool vibes if you want to go down for a drink after your meal or just see the cool atmosphere.

I've reviewed Open Road before but I had to post again to shout out the braised short rib. Absolutely delicious!

This is my second time here. The blackened salmon was fantastic. Broccolini was perfect. Very friendly staff, great crowd and people watching. Very convenient location and food has been consistently good.Highly recommend.

Swung by after hearing from friends that the burgers here are very good! My friend and I got the Open Road classic burger and the French Onion burger and went halfsies -- the Open Road burger honestly wasn't very flavorful, which was surprising. The French Onion burger however, was flavorful and delicious! The fries on the side were also deliciously crispy and hot. The Jambalaya pasta could have used some more sauce since some of the pasta pieces were dry. Service was pretty friendly, though not as attentive as I thought it would be considering it was pretty empty at the time we swung by. Nonetheless, we had a good experience here and I'll likely be back!
