We are not just a restaurant, but an institution in Arlington. The first floor of our restored historic property houses an inviting bar and lounge that remains vibrant all hours of the day. Our upstairs dining room offers professional service, a warm ambiance, and a menu featuring rustic, modern American cuisine. We are devoted to in-house production: we bake all of our own bread and pastas, sausages, and desserts. Our beverage program features creative specialty cocktails, a diverse wine list, and a great selection of premium draft and bottled beer. We are known for our unlimited small plates brunch on the weekend and late night dancing Friday through Sunday. Liberty To-Go offers a separate carry-out entrance on Irving Street where wood-fired pizzas, house-made pastas, fresh salads and other specialties are offered for enjoyment at home.

    We had a wonderful experience here for our daughter’s birthday. They have a wonderful kids menu. My son (5 years old) also ordered his own meal and our waitress was very sweet and patient with him. We had a reservation for an outside table (recommend as it’s very crowded) and absolutely loved everything we ordered. The ravioli was fantastic!!! The ambience was a little loud due to the passing cars but that’s nothing the restaurant could control. 100% recommend.

    Excellent service. Busy and lively on the weekend. Wide variety of brunch items. Full bar with a few TVs. Close to the Clarendon metro station.

    Great food and service - love dining upstairs. Can’t go wrong with the Alabama White Sauce Wings as an appetizer.

    I had a 2pm reservation for brunch, they sat us 25 minutes late, which was fine. But then they told us our last call was 3:20 so we didn’t even get an hour of the “90 minute” brunch service. Felt rushed when I was on time. Some food was brought out, some not at all, and some twice. Seemed a bit disorganized. Server was a sweet lady, not her fault she was very busy. I’ll go back to Ambar.
