• American • Arlington
Booked 91 times today
The menu follows a Southern-fried meat-and-three concept, meaning diners order a meat, plus three sides. Those will include Ruthie’s mac and cheese, of course, but also white-soy-braised greens, stewed chickpeas and smoked cauliflower with a spicy soy glaze. “We’re going to be changing it a lot based on seasonality,” Hill says of the menu. “ Every vegetable has got to be fantastic because it has to stand on its own.” One thing that will help that: Hill is already growing all of the restaurant’s own herbs at his South Arlington community garden plot.

    Wonderful cuisine - not the old Tabard Inn restaurant! Always innovative cuisine and beautifully served. Highly professional servers. A pleasure to be in the setting too, especially the covered patio.

    Never fails to be a great experience. The only issue we've had in many years of coming back to Zatinya is noise. This time we arrived at 5 PM for a 6 PM reservation and it was quieter than usual. They were simply fantastic, acknowledged our anniversary and made the night special. But all visits to this superb restaurant are special

    Very cute little place. I usually head for DC when I want a dinner out, but this was a nice experience with parking on site in the close in suburbs. I didn't expect the food to be as good as it was because the menu was huge and wide ranging. I had the butternut squash ravioli in red pepper sauce and it was excellent. My husband's duck could have been a bit less cooked and cut more evenly, but the flavor was delicious and I would order that if I went back. The sauteed calamari was fresh and the sauce light and flavorful I really judge a restaurant on this dish, because I've had so much rubbery calamari. This was tender and perfectly cooked. Recommend as a great alternative to Ubering into the city if you want a nice dinner in Arlington.
