Fairfax Inn - Falls Church

Fairfax Inn serves Filipino and American food. The lechon kawali (crispy pork belly) had a nice crackle (but maybe was a bit overdone). The palabok was disappointing thoughtoo much sauce but not enough toppings. Where was the hard boiled egg slices and the shrimp? The interior was homey but well worn and tired looking. I think you could easily find better Filipino food elsewhere. Service: Dine in

If you are going to order the chicken adobo, I recommend getting the white rice. The adobo has a lot of flavor and you need something bland to really give the adobo good contrast. While the garlic fried rice is good, it's a lot going on and personally for me the regular white rice is a better suit for the dish. The portions are on the smaller side but they do use good ingriedients. Unfortunately good quality will come at a cost. But if you're aching for that taste of home cooked meal, this is it right here.

I've ordered from this place before. Last time i ordered arroz caldo with a calamansi juice. Juice never came. I decided to give them another shot. I ordered lechon kawali with an extra egg. I only received 1 egg when they advertise 2 eggs with the order. I payed extra money to get less food. Never again. Service: Delivery Meal type: Breakfast Food: 3 Service: 1

I like how low key Fairfax Inn Restaurant is and it felt homey, like eating at an Aunty's house. I can cook pretty much anything on their Filipino menu, but sometimes I don't feel like cooking and they could probably do it better...haha. I went here for the first time over the weekend because I was craving tocino. So I ordered the tosilog (tocino, garlic fried rice, eggs which you can choose the way you want them cooked, I got sunny side up eggs). It was pretty good! I'm guessing the tocino is homemade. I wish it came with a side of tomato and onion but all good, I still enjoyed my meal. I was tempted to also order dinuguaan, but I knew I would be too full. My husband ordered the bistek and he said it was better than his parents' bistek. I actually ate his leftover sabao/sauce with white rice..so yummy. They have other popular Filipino dishes on their menu like chicken adobo, sinigang, pancit mami (soup), fried and fresh lumpia, turon (banana egg roll). I ordered halo halo for my dessert. It was pretty good and I'm glad they don't serve it in a humongous styrofoam cup. It was a perfect size. Halo halo is basically the Filipino version of bing soo but tastes way better because it has additional toppings like red bean, coconut gel, macapuno, ube ice cream, and leche flan. I wish they used the Hawaiian shave ice so the ice is softer as there were bits of ice...it was fine though because I still enjoyed my halo halo regardless. I noticed they had bibingka for sale and wish I bought one! It looks like there's American food as I noticed on the board they had things like fish sandwiches and I think steak. Service was quick and they checked up on us. I will definitely will be back when I want my Filipino food fix and don't feel like cooking. If you're looking for Filipino fusion like sisig burritos and ube pancakes, you need to go to DC for that. But if you are craving traditional Filipino dishes, you won't be disappointed!
