Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Copperwood Tavern offers a "great mix of meat and seafood options" with a "fun and relaxed atmosphere." Their "delicious farm-to-table food" and "fantastic service" make it a favorite in Shirlington. Outdoor seating is dog-friendly, and the whiskey list is a hit. A perfect spot for both casual dining and special occasions.

    My theater group has been to Copperwood Tavern a number of times and will definitely keep retuning. The food and service is always great and there is a terrific variety as well.

    All the items on the menu sounded amazing but unfortunately fell flat. The grilled cheese, for example was served with soggy bread on one side, while the short rib was fairly dry. The fried goat cheese was served at room temperature, and the “honey” was so watered down, it may as well been apple juice. The French Toast looked great but it wasn’t custardy at all. Just a bit tough and bland. The short rib benedict was pretty meh as well. The worst part was that at first the server kept rushing us to place an order. When we said we needed a couple of minutes, he just stood there and stared at us. The worst part, however, was the heat. Where we sat happened to be unbearably hot. It felt like we were under heat lamps. We were so uncomfortable, we just wanted to leave. Overall, not the worst, but not somewhere I would like to return to.

    Dry good quality food and excellent service. A bit pricey and most main dishes do not come with sides. However, I would recommend this place for a nice dinner.

    Wonderful waiter and attentive service. The food was good but some dishes were a bit disappointing. For example the butter and ale chicken and ribeye cheese steak were good; the fried chicken was overcooked and dry. The fried green tomatoes were okay but we found them to be dense and the sauce without flavor.

    I hosted a large group to celebrate a friend’s birthday. Most of the guests had never been to Copperwood, but I assure you they will be back. The food was delicious, and our server Louis was perfect in efficiency, friendliness, and knowledge . From starters to dessert, there were no regrets. I love the Shirlington area, and this restaurant is the best.
