Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Arlington

Was a big fan of this retuarant group's Temple Bar which closed much to my disappointment a while back making a visit to Russell House very much anticipated. This restarant didnt disapoint. I arrived early and enjoyed a few drinks at the bar. The bar had an exccellent selection of cocktails, craft beers and high end liquors not found everywhere (Pappy Van Winckle). The bar is upstairs and once we finished and hit our reservation time slot we went downstairs for dinner. The menu was creative, the portions modest and the food very good. We had a few appetizers then our main course. The staff was attentive and the atmosphere was vibrant but not excessively loud. I very much enjoyed the experience and look forward to a return.

amazing place!! very ambient, dishes were both gorgeous and delicious and not too expensive. definitely recommend getting the oysters (duh) -- i don't love raw seafood, but their oysters were incredible. the lobster bisque was super rich and creamy, and the calamari was very well-fried and paired with a fantastic sauce. the highlight for me was the lobster roll with the most amazing french fries ever!! (and my brother's mac and cheese was delicious)

Earls is always one of my favorite spots to go for lunch. You have to order the truffle fries to start, they are perfectly crispy and the grated Parmesan cheese on top as a nice touch. My go to dish is always one of their taco options paired with the sparkling raspberry lemonade. If you go I would recommend requesting Adam as your server, he is one of the best!

Tryst is a lovely space with delicious food and pleasant, attentive staff.

My party of four friends were out celebrating my birthday. We had amazingly attentive, patient service, delicious food and a sweet birthday surprise: a brownie sundae that was delicious plenty rich for the 4 of us to share. Thanks, Town Tavern staff!
