Chesapeake Grill: "General information" Top 5 Page for this destination Arlington Restaurant Tip by matcrazy1
Arlington Restaurants: 50 reviews and 90 photos
Excuse, this restaurant, located on the last floor of Hyatt Regency Crystal City hotel, called Chesapeake Grill, was too expensive for us. I didn't eat there. I visited the restaurant which was completely empty because of the views through its panoramic windows. Hmm... the view was over the Ronald Reagan National Airport and the Potomac River from the one side and over other hotel buildings in Crystal City from the opposite side. The choice of food was not that wide as the restaurant advertised at hotel leaflet but there was good variety of wines.
RESTAURANTS TIPS
1. Restaurants in Crystal City are generally less expensive than those in Washington, DC.
2. Many restaurants in Arlington are located in Crystal City: close intersection of Jefferson Davis Hwy (US-1) and 23rd Street and in Rosslyn, close to metro station and along Wilson Blvd.
3. Crystal city is more oriented for visitors whereas Rosslyn for local commuters (more fast food restaurants there).
4. Hotel restaurants are expensive (except Rudy's at Days Inn). Generally I am not a fan of hotel restaurants, especially in higher ranked hotels, as they often don't offer much more for twice the price than local restaurants and often serve small portions.
5. Remember to add sales tax and costumary 15% tip to price shown in menu.
6. Local restaurants often have menu in Spanish, rarely in other languages.
7. Chain restaurants sometimes (rarely?) can be good option for budget visitors.
8. Meals are served in American size (= 1 dish is often enough for two).
9. Usually you pay for unlimited amount of coffee, not for one small cup like in Poland.
10. What you can't eat will be packed in doggy bag (I would like to see it in Poland :-).
11. Remember to wait to be seated in most restaurants.
12. For budget visitors: eat large breakfast at price, say $10, instead of twice more expensive lunch.
Favorite Dish: 13. If you are going to visit downtown Washington, DC, eat in Arlington. There are only fast food restaurants and street stalls along the Mall. A few restaurants close to the Mall are expensive.
Address: 2799 Jefferson Davis Hwy, Arlington, VA 22202
Comparison: more expensive than average
Directions: From US-1 turn on light (right driving from south) at 27th Street. The hotel is just after side street in front-left - take an entrance from right (not like me). Details here.
