Food NetworkMarch 20, 2013Go for the Beef Stroganoff, starring braised short ribs that fall off the bone at the lightest touch. The dish is paired with freshly made egg noodles, mushrooms and English peas. Via CityEats.com Read more
Northern Virginia MagazineFebruary 5, 2013Grasshopper pie: "I don't like it. I LOVE IT !!! Whenever friends, family or fans are in town this is where and what I treat them to." --Monte Durham (NVM's January 2013 Eat This Now! issue)
- Northern Virginia MagazineApril 25, 2014"Bessy plays the role of greeter. She is a large bronze pig and just one of many swines... If you tag a photo with you and Bessy on Jackson 20's Facebook page, you win an order of BBQ pork sliders."
Burger DaysMarch 21, 2011The J20 Burger is on point. With mountaineer cheese, bacon, apple cider slaw and barbecue aioli, this is one fancy-ass burger we love. Their shrimp fritter appetizer is also ridiculously good. Read more
Greg FullerMarch 16, 2018Nice restaurant/ bar attached to the Alexandrian hotel. Had some nice local beers to choose from and the bar menu was good.
Alexandra OjedaAugust 23, 2013Highly recommended! Modern twist on american classics! Go for the rib eye or beef stroganoff! The gratin potatoes are the best.
- Acacia WallerAugust 26, 2013Restaurant week is going on now through Sept 1st. Awesome deal for $20- appetizer, choice of salad bar, sandwich or main, and dessert!
Lynn PinaMay 11, 2010The cheese grits are to-die-for and don't think about leaving without getting the banana pudding for dessert. The potatoes au gratin are really good too! Great comfort food!- Brian CeresAugust 11, 2014Great spot for brunch: Eggs Benedict and bottomless traditional mimosas for the win!
The brunch was awesome. The biscuits and gravy are out of this world.
Kalani NiheuDecember 31, 2016Maple syrup is great, but large stack is underwhelming. Gravy was also tasty, but biscuits were cold in the middle and were a little like cardboard.
Becky RodriguezJanuary 11, 2014Try the Char Grilled Goat, Pimento Cheese Ravioli, Sweet Pot Puree, Creamed Corn
- Kara AllanNovember 1, 2012The shrimp fritters and cornbread are fantastic! Jorge is a great bartender!
- Melissa ReyesJuly 4, 2013The drink El General is a refreshing cucumber drink! Have it if you're outside and it's hot!
- Becky RodriguezJune 30, 2013Can't beat their waffles!! But bummed they took the shrimp fritters off the menu 😓
Brunch and the CityJanuary 22, 2012
Try the Bison Strip Steak - With collard greens and palenta...delicious.
Rachel KMay 18, 2015Ok southern food brunch. Everything was a bit too greasy or sweet for my non-southern palate.- Try the Charcuterie Board - So wonderful...full of flavor.
- Casey ChroustJuly 17, 2010Potato au gratin is awesome. Whiskey sour house cocktail was too sour. Trefethen red wine was best offered by the glass.

Erin BojarczukJune 11, 2014Food was very disappointing to say the least. Bland appetizers, rock hard ribs, under seasoned sides. Service was slow as well. And if i ask for recommendations on a beer, don't recite the menu to me
JennyDecember 15, 2010Love the doggy yappy hour's in the courtyard. They have them Tues & Thurs in the spring - fall.
Rebecca UrbanskiApril 28, 2013Food came a little cold....waiter heard us complaining about it.... He comped it.

"The Irish egg roles is a cool spin on corned beef and cabbage. The wonton wrap and the dubliner cheddar cheese taste awesome with the corned beef and cabbage."
