Clarity must be the best restaurant in all of Tysons and Vienna. This place has got it all. The cocktails are handcrafted and prepared superbly. The food is gourmet and made from scratch using the best and freshest ingredients. The place is not loud like most other restaurants! They may be more expensive than other locales but it’s the money well spent. Hands down the best.

Food was delicious, nicely presented and creative, and a good value, as was the wine compared with many other fine food restaurants, factoring in the expected wine markup. The service was attentive, perhaps a bit too so, as the waiter came back every minute or two to ask us if we were ready to order after we had literally just sat down, even though the restaurant was not at all crowded so there was no reason to be in a rush to get our order in, but she was otherwise excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant!
