Best Seasonal Restaurants in Clifton

I disovered Trummers quite by accident when I looking for Truffle Fries for my son. We found Trummers, and the fries and their chicken were outstanding. That's when I knew I had to bring my wife here for Valentine's Day. And Trummers did not disappoint! That meal was the best we've had since moving to Virginia. If you are having trouble finding great food, service, and atmosphere, I can't rave about Trummers enough.

Amazing Experience at Texas de Brazil! Texas de Brazil is hands down one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of upscale elegance and a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The service is top-notch—attentive, friendly, and always making sure you have everything you need. And the food? Absolutely incredible! The salad bar is fresh, diverse, and packed with delicious options, but the real star of the show is the endless parade of perfectly seasoned, expertly grilled meats. Each cut is juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Whether you love filet mignon, lamb chops, picanha, or Brazilian sausages, there’s something for everyone. The experience feels indulgent yet refined, making it perfect for special occasions, date nights, or simply treating yourself to a fantastic meal. If you’re a fan of quality meats and exceptional service, Texas de Brazil is a must-visit. Can’t wait to go back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our food was delicious, fresh, generous portions. We had roasted half chicken and avocado toast. We both asked for substitutions/add-ons which were accommodated. I was offered an alternative add-on because the one I initially requested was seasonal. Drinks and desserts were also good regarding taste and serving size. Our waiter was very pleasant and regularly checked on us without being intrusive. The manager also stopped by our table and other customers to check that everything was ok. It’s a diner, so noise levels are what one might expect, but we could easily converse without raising our voices. It has a retro diner vibe with posters/photos/vinyl of iconic performers at Carnegie Hall (original diner in New York is near the concert hall). It’s becoming a favorite neighborhood spot so it’s always busy and the one negative is that parking in this popular local shopping center is relatively limited so it can be hard to find a space during peak hours.

The experience was very enjoyable. First and foremost, the service was impeccable. Our server was attentive, professional and attentive. The food was delicious. The steaks were cooked to perfection.

Carmelo's is one of my wife and I favorite restaurants. We had our wedding reception at Carmelo's and otherwise regularly visit. The food selection is very good and always fresh, hot, and delicious. Often time we are also offered a small flute of wine, free which is a nice touch. Also, often time Javier is our waiter who is just the right level of attentive and always professional, upbeat, and personable.
