“ Best Steak and Cheese in town, skating rink viewing is fantastic.... I'll definitely come back for more ”
“ The cheesesteak was very good. The meat was well prepared. Service was a little slow, but food was good. ”
“ The sample group I am working with is very small. But if it's truly representative, I will be going back. Can't comment much on ambiance since it was a takeout order. We ordered their cheesesteak. Two of them. Might be the best cheesesteak I have had in Northern Virginia. Lots of meat. Tasty fried onions. We got one "WIT" Cheese Whiz and one with Provolone. Yum! Service was a bit slow. Went on a Friday night and the place wasn't that busy, so I don't know what was with that. If I have another craving for cheesesteak, this is where I am going! ”
“ Based on a Facebook northern Virginia food group recommendation, we ventured out for a cheesesteak. It's in Sterling; however, it was worth the hike over there. We had gone out there for Rai's cheesesteak but wandered into the pour house which is adjacent to Rai's. They had a large selection of beers in draft which was appealing and we were able to order a cheesesteak and a pizza with beef pepperoni and beyond sausage. The crust had a nice chew to it and flavor was great. We had ricotta on our pizza which maybe made the pizza a little sloppy so the next time, we will ask for the pie to be cooked well done. The cheesesteak was stuffed with lots of meat. We had provolone and American cheese and dang. It was great! I thought that I'd only have a bite since cheesesteaks typically aren't my thing but I easily ate half of it! There's lots of TV screens in this joint and they have happy hour prices on a Saturday afternoon starting at 3. There was only one server working the bar and the tables so the service wasn't quick. If you're in a rush, you may want to go there when you're not. The food was well worth it and I'd journey back out there for a cheesesteak again. It's worth the hike. Lots of tables. Great for watching the game and having a tasty pizza or bar snacks too. ”
“ I came here on a Monday night football with my sister, and we sat at the bar to just chill and have a drink or so. The 5 stars goes to awesome service from 2 particular bartenders here, unfortunately I did not get their names, but one was African American and the other Asian. They were super easy-going, friendly, and helpful. My sister and I asked about specials, and they have Football specials on a special menu during games (with pretty decently priced food, and even better priced drinks). I could not decide what drink of choice, but the bartenders got me a small glass to taste the cherry Bold Rock on draft. I didn't love it, so they suggested a canned cider with real apple bits in it, which was delicious. They poured it in an icy cold glass. It definitely elevated the experience, with such a simple gesture, but excellent bartending service! PS: There is a BIG screen TV playing the main football / sports game, and several other TVs scattered throughout the whole bar (so there is something playing for everyone). I even saw a trio bring cards to play on their high top tables. The ambiance is good, with sports decor and some humorous signs posted. When we came, the night was still warm out so they had the garage-style doors up and open, so it was good ventilation and a great breeze. It's nice to see a laid-back local bar, so support these guys! ”
