“ Recently just had a terrific experience with Tarbenders and their staff. I hosted a 50 person party for my 30th Birthday and couldn't be happier. The DJ was amazing and the food and drinks were out of this world. Plenty of room to dance and the bartenders and wait staff were top notch. Thanks Tarbenders! ”
“ Great atmosphere from the decor to the staff. The food was absolutely amazing. Heirloom tomato caprese was simple yet delicious. Just the right ratio of tomato to mozzarella and the balsamic glaze was just the right balance of acid and sweet. Ended up for dinner having the Brisket sandwich with brussel sprouts and bacon and this was just over the top. The bread was perfectly toasted and warm, the waygu beef just melted in your mouth. I would definitely recommend the crab cakes as well. ”
“ This place does not disappoint if you're looking for a local speakeasy in Loudoun County (it's probably the only speakeasy in this area lol).The food, cocktails and vibes encompasses all that a speakeasy is. Everything was delicious. Food was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Drinks were very good too. Great quick, getaway date night with my husband. It's also a great place to go with friends, as they have a small area with couches if you wanted to just have a few drinks and hang out. ”
“ Great food and drinks! Karaoke and live band with the saxophone! Michael was so nice and accommodating ”
“ Tarbender's Lounge is a fun speakeasy with a lot to offer. The entrance being a phone booth is a perfect way to accent the fun environment inside. It is a busy place, so I recommend a reservation, though their reservation process on their website could use an upgrade. We arrived to find they had our reservation, but had overlooked it, so we had to wait for them to rearrange some tables. I will say after that, I felt the staff tried to make up for the rough start. Everyone we met was friendly and one of our servers showed me the Tiki room and discussed the history of the business. They also have a karaoke lounge in the front by the entrance. The drinks are great. The menu appears slightly limited, so don't be afraid to order off menu, based on your preferences. We tried several old fashioned. The chili dog is really good...better than I expected. The lobstah mac and cheese really has lobster in it. The prime rib was also delicious. ”
“ Celebrated my birthday with friends here. Enjoyed fabulous espresso martinis and impromptu trivia and karaoke! Staff was friendly and welcoming. Live music entertainer in the other room - seemed like a great date spot. ”
“ Really cool vibe. Excellent drinks. The live jazz trio was classy. And I didn't get the guy's name, but the dude in the NYY and 143 hats wearing the sport coat was outstanding in terms of service, engagement, and just being nice to everyone - seriously, I'm posting a review really because we watched him buzz around the place. We'll be back for sure. The ONLY thing I'd recommend would be a couple of veggie/vegan options on the menu. ”
“ Cocktails are fantastic! Also stellar staff who are so friendly. ”
