Best Restaurants for Foodies in Baileys Crossroads

Went to the lofts which was Havana 151 themed with a themed menu (as well as their regular menu). Table had a 90 min limit but that might have been because of Valentine’s Day.

Palette 22 is now our go-to restaurant. Each dish is well-prepared, flavorful, and represents the country of origin. The service is always polite and responsive. Tip: you can order a few dishes at a time. You do not need to place your entire order at one time. This allows you to enjoy each dish more slowly. We like taking turns ordering 2 items at a time. From last night, my top picks were the Sesane Steak, Lebanese Tacos, and the Funghi Flat Bread.

Not staying at the hotel, it was difficult finding our way to the restaurant, but everything else was excellent. The menu is small and mostly casual food, but it is well-prepared and affordable considering the service and the view. The salads and flatbread for appetizers were excellent. The burger was also excellent and the crab cake sandwich above average. Along with a glass of wine, the average cost per person was around $50, a great price for an establishment like this in DC.

My 2 out of town sisters brought me & my son here for a birthday dinner. Everything was perfect from your kindness for allowing a last minute addition to our party to surprising me with a glass of champagne for my birthday. By evening’s end, one sister declared it was the only NoVa restaurant she wanted to go to in the future. All the food was exceptional & the service was terrific. Can’t wait to go back.

The service was MUCH better than my last visit to Corso. Everything was great, and enjoyed catching up with friends. Nice to see Corso is back on top in Shirlington!
