Pike Cornerstone

Now this post is more than just a shout out to the amazing team over at Pikecornerstone for completely saving my birthday party on Saturday night. Needless to say that things didn't go so well at 2910 Kitchen & Bar due to very unprofessional owners and an ill equipped staff. After hearing that my DJ's music was being turned down for no reason, there only being 4 staff members for almost 100 people, my guests being made to wait almost an hour or more just to still not receive the food or drink orders they placed as well as one person receiving a drink with a whole grown ass fly in it ‍, I had had enough!! Now if you know me, you know there's 3 things that I don't play with...being disrespectful, my money and of course my birthday! Well they tried me on all fronts! So I had to put a quick end to that tom foolery and shut things down. In a quick decision to save what was left of the night, I ran next door and was greeted by the most friendly faces. Not only did they welcome us with open arms, they handled our almost 100 guests with ease! Think they even called reinforcements in and all! People were seated and served within minutes! For the rest of the night everyone ate, drank and was merry! Especially me!! My DJ was even allowed to play some of my favorite songs. They checked on me consistently and made sure I was well taken care of. We sang and enjoyed the night like NOTHING ever happened! Think we ate them out of house and home like my grandma used to say! The service was TOP NOTCH! I thank the entire staff for being so freaking awesome and amazing all in one! If you are looking for quality service, good drinks, delicious food, and a great time, I highly recommend this establishment! I will definitely be back!!#QueenG #IssaBirthday #IssaCelebration #FourtyFine #45ShadesOfPink #PikeCornerstone #ArlingtonVa #HumbledAndBlessedThank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Where do I begin? The food, service, and atmosphere were all top notch! My friend was supposed to have a party at an establishment next door and they failed miserably. Pike Cornerstone to the rescue.The 3 bartenders accommodated our party of approximately 100 people at the last minute without batting an eye. They were professional, friendly, and extremely accommodating. They even took music requests.Wait times for drinks and food were minimal, and everything was delicious. Oh, and my water on the rocks was perfect! LolBottom line, if you are looking for a good spot with great food and drinks, this is it!

Perfect spot to pre or post-game events at Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse across the street. Appetizer menu is extensive and all of it looks SO good! The fried buffalo Cornerstone Wings were good but the real star was the Pike Nachos!! Huge portion and no skimping on the toppings!! The Chicken Pot Pie is innovative as a fried empanada! I really enjoyed the filling in these! The Garlic Lemon Seafood pasta was also good and I enjoyed the sauce! The Daddy Issue's, Lavender Vodka cocktail (forgot the name), and Moscow mule were all heavily poured, but would've been happy with IPAs as well! Lastly, love the bar vibes of this restaurant and the fact that it's a JMU officially licensed game day bar!! Go Dukes!

Pike Cornerstone took over from Rebellion on the Pike. I really enjoyed Rebellion as a local pub specializing in local whiskey and I was sad to see it close. However, I was also interested in giving Cornerstone a shot. My husband and I visited on Veterans Day for dinner. We had no problem finding a table. Our server was friendly and checked on us frequently. They have a nice cocktail menu and good beer and wine selection as well. I decided to try the Newman Lake cocktail and my husband ordered an Old Fashioned. Both were tasty. I also tried the Strawberry Bourbon Smash and that was heavy on the citrus notes...zesty even. We ordered the Pike Nachos, Cross Street Burger and Patty Melt. It was a ton of really good food. We had to get a to go box. I'd definitely comeback. Thanks for a great dinner experience!

Here are the good points- the Rice Bowl was amazing! Fresh rice, orange chicken, broccoli, sesame seeds and just the right amount of spice. Me and my fiance were able to play Guess Who while we waited for our food. They have other games too to play: Uno, Battleship, CAH, etc. The ambiance was empty. It was Saturday night and I thought there would be more than 6 guests in the bar. I feel like we had 2 servers: one took our order and one brought out food. They never offered a refill and I had to flag them down for some extra sauce. For it to be so slow the servers should have been a bit more attentive. Won't be here again.

We have been waiting for this place to open since we saw it being worked on. Finally made it out on a Friday in the early evening with the wife and kids. The space is great - you can tell it was put together with love. It was full enough that the host brought us upstairs, which was empty when we got there at 5:30 but full when we left. They have a great beer list (Veil!), and the appetizers we had (chicken wings and the h-u-g-e pretzel) were top notch. The stuff we had for dinner (burger, chicken sandwich, chimichangas, flank steak) was a couple notches below the apps. Almost enough to call this a happy hour place only, but we will probably try dinner again sometime because everything else brought smiles.

Came through on a Tuesday evening at around 7:30pm to check the place out. It was pretty empty and slow. Had some beers, wasn't a fan of the spirit selections. Ordered the pork belly which was very flavorless and even adding some lime, it just didn't have taste. A friend was telling me about a shrimp bowl he ordered and was annoyed cause the shrimp had the tails on. Super disappointed! The staff was ok., attentive but then again the place didn't have much going on. The place seemed pretty bright which is nice and organized. May give it a try after some months to see if the food is any better.

Was sad to see Rebellion go, but very happy to see Cornerstone take over so quickly. Came on a random Sunday for some drinks and to watch the Nationals game. Had great and friendly service and the place has a good vibe. Looking forward to sending more afternoons here after a nice walk. Side note: also very happy to support a woman-owned business

Service was A1!!!!! From the servers to the bartenders to the runners!! Drinks were perfect food was bomb! Service was extremely fast even with a HUGE party. Will absolutely be back!

Over the weekend Pike Cornerstone, UNEXPECTEDLY, saved a huge party of 80+ people. With just a few staff, service was TOP NOTCH! If you are looking for quality service, good drinks, delicious food, and a good time, I highly recommend this establishment! I'll definitely be back!!
