• Service, food and atmosphere.

“Fantastic food and service! My husband got the crab cakes and said they were the best crab cakes he had ever had. He also raved about the coleslaw that came with the crab cakes. I loved the hickory cheeseburger. Do not pass up the banana pudding and flour less chocolate waffle with homemade ice cream! Everyone had a smile on their face and were very friendly. The Managing partner, came by to check on us and was extremely nice. Our server, was absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend Artie's. I know we will eat there again during this stay!”

• Food is good, service is excellent, atmosphere is cozy.
• A bit noisy.

“Artie's in Fairfax has a good menu with a diverse offering both for adults and for kids. The crab cakes are excellent, but many of the cheaper entrees are very close, so you don't have to spend a ton of money to get a good meal. I had the Sauteed Chicken Paillard and my wife had the Portobello's with Goat Cheese, and both dishes tasted great. The wine list is decent and they also feature good, fresh micro brewed beer. Some of the other Great American Restaurants can fall a little flat with service, but our experience at Artie's was top-notch. All the wait staff were friendly and our server was very attentive to detail. My daughter is very picky about how her steak is prepared, and our server made a special trip to make sure that it was cooked exactly how she wanted it (and it was). When he found out we were interested in dessert, he mentioned they were about to run out of the bread pudding and asked if we would like him to reserve one. We ended up getting the last one, and it was a great way to end the meal. There are other restaurants with better food than Artie's, but my whole family came away having had a great dining experience.”

• Everything on the menu is outstanding - you can't miss.
• Nothing.

“Artie's is without a doubt my favorite restaurant of all time! The food is unbeatable, the service is exceptional (they will make it right at any cost to them) and the atmosphere is relaxed but classy. You can wear a nice pair of jeans and a sweater or get really dressed up - either way you fit in. I always take out of town guests to Artie's and my husband and I go there frequently. The old fashioned banana pudding dessert is to die for and nothing like you've had before. Also, if you like tuna, the rare tuna steak hot salad is a must. The textures and flavors of everything in it are beyond incredible. Oh, and don't forget the assize rolls with herbed butter. I don't normally eat a lot but I can't get enough of them.”

• Food quality, microbrews, dessert selection.
• Prices.

“We'd been looking forward to trying arties since moving to Fairfax last summer. Fortunately we had the opportunity to visit whilst my mother was in town. Overall I liked the place good food, prompt/polite service, family friendly. On the downside, each selection was overpriced by $3-4. I realize it is Fairfax, and you're obligated to overcharge since most of your customers bilk the American taxpayers for their salaries, but come on, $16 for Jambalaya! Thankfully Arties brews their own tasty beers (recommend the Pale Ale), and they also make a stunning pumpkin cheesecake (to die for) unfortunately it's $39 if you want to take some home. In closing, Id go to Arties again especially if my mom's back in town (AKA picking up the check).”

• Good service, good food, nice ambiance (casual)
• Nothing negative to report.

“Artie's has a casual family-oriented ambiance and is the perfect place to chill with friends as well. We really enjoyed our experience. The hush-puppy style rolls were delicious and the meal kept getting better. We highly recommend Artie's for a delicious meal at a reasonable price. Artie's put a unique spin on some standard recipes. Two thumbs up !”
