Best Live Music Restaurants in Arlington

This restaurant & bar is probably the most upscale in Arlington without any “stuffy” feeling/vibe. Darker lighting (with small table lights to see menu) makes for a nice ambience. I have been here several times for lunch and dinner. My favs are the chicken sausage flatbread, Bourbon steak tips, Bolognese, beet salad. The burger beef is high quality and cooked perfectly but tends to lack flavor (tried twice); a simple touch of salt and pepper would make it tastier. Some Thursdays they have live jazz. Cocktails are made well. Service has always been super — attentive and friendly. Will continue to go back a couple times a month.

This was our first time at Sogno and we're already looking forward to returning. It was a quiet start to the day so we sat at the bar and Izza could not have provided any better service. We were not rushed and when things changed she let us know. Being new we decided to take our time and try a bit of a few things starting with a white wine. They have a nice selection and priced well. We shared the Arancini for a starter. Having Cacio e Pepe inside was a nice choice, but the lovely crusty outside really set this starter apart (from the same dish at other places). We next chose a red wine to go with our dinners. We had a general selection and were going to ask for assistance as they have an excellent selection of Borolo's but while we waited for Kelly to assist notice something different (that's one of the good (and bad) things of Italian wines, there are so many grapes); Mastroberardine. Kelly explained that was the area the owners are from, and that sold us. It was a lovely wine to go with my Bolognese and Julie's Genovese Tagliatelle. The Bolo was a little different with a bit less meat and a bit more tomato than I think of true Italian Bolognese, but it was delicious (and I will have it again). Julies Genovese was exquisite, definitely a must try. Winding down we decided to spilt a dessert, the ricotta pie was excellent. We try new places mainly based on the food and wine but here as most of our favorite places, the people truly shined Izza and Kelly made our meal special and ensured we'll be back. Thank you both.

The Menotomy Grill has a wonderful, warm, even cozy atmosphere that makes dining there a real pleasure. The staff are all very friendly and accomodating. We all enjoyed each of our dishes. The shrimp poblano fritters were delicious, the PEI mussels were fresh and savory, the cioppino was a great blend of seafood flavors, the salmon was gone just right and the fish and chips were perfect. This was our second visit, and we are looking forward to coming back.

Always a fun time at La Fabrica! Apps , sushi are great! Great restaurants when you feel like going out for a fun night!

All need to say is that I love this place and I’m definitely coming back . “Many times more”
