Casual spot with a covered patio serving up drinks, bar bites & occasional live acoustic music.

I came to Arlington under difficult circumstances for a funeral, but dinner here was a much-needed bright spot. The food is truly out of this world—easily the best restaurant meal I’ve had in a long time.
The gumbo is hands-down the best I’ve ever tasted, the crab cake dip is to die for, and the jambalaya is absolutely incredible. Even the tuna was impressive. To top it off, we had Jessica as our server, and she was outstanding—easily the best waitress I’ve ever had. This place is a must-visit!

Stopped into Ragtime for a couple drinks and a quick bite to eat.
Food hit the spot. Drinks were delicious. The staff were friendly.
The place was busy with the sports games on tv. At times, all the bar stools were taken and there was standing room only. I feel this would be a great spot for Sunday football.
I am excited to see what this place turns into come Mardi Grad time! Can’t wait to pop in here for Fat Tuesday celebrations!!

I’ve been on the hunt for the best buffalo chicken wrap and this place has taken the number one spot away from Dogwood Tavern who is a close second. It’s the perfect hot sauce, a delicious funky blue cheese and they do the portions right. Do yourself a favor and pair it with the tater tots, you won’t be disappointed.
Edit: I’ve now been back multiple times and have yet to have a bad wrap. It’s always

It was a great vibe at this restaurant. Someone was playing his guitar and singing some pop and alternative music. Went with family and got seated quickly and the food was good.

I’ve been to Ragtime twice now, and both visits have been great. On my most recent trip, the place was busy when I arrived, but the service never missed a beat. The bartender (short dark hair and glasses— I wish I caught her name!) was very attentive and welcoming throughout.
Ragtime has a warm, “locals” vibe that makes it feel instantly comfortable. The drink and food options are solid, with very reasonable prices compared to other spots in the area. I also loved the thoughtful detail of having notes on each TV showing which football game would be playing and when…such a simple but incredibly helpful touch for sports fans.
Overall, Ragtime has quickly become one of my favorite neighborhood bars. Great atmosphere, great service, and great value. I’ll definitely be back!

Ate here several times while staying at the hotel next door. Food was tasty, I especially enjoyed the Buddha bowl. Reasonable prices for the area, in a std bar/grill kind of atmosphere. Setting is not really my thing as I prefer a more serene dining experience, but getting takeout solved that.

Wings are absolutely incredible—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. Easily some of the best I’ve had in the area! The service was also very good—friendly, prompt, and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere has a cozy, welcoming feel with a solid neighborhood vibe. We happened to drop in on trivia night, which brought a lively (and admittedly loud) crowd, but it added to the community feel rather than taking away from the experience. Overall, a great local spot—perfect for grabbing drinks, catching a game, or just enjoying some seriously good bar food.

Solid. While there’s limited parking by the restaurant, there’s a parking lot a block away so no issues. Waitress was very nice and attentive, and ensured she checked on us regularly. The atmosphere was not bad and I can see hanging with friends here. The food was good and certainly worth trying. I had the chicken and waffles, which was very good. My son the fried oysters, which he enjoyed. And my wife the wings, which she really liked.

Absolutely love this place! Always went to their other location in Vienna, Bear Branch and found out about this. Great staff, excellent food and great vibe.
We love it!! During the snowstorm, they put their staff in a hotel nearby and opened. The place was packed, good move on their part.

TLDR: Great pub food!
We got the Voodoo Grilled Chicken Wings, French Quarter Dip with Tots, and the Shrimp Po’ Boy with Mac and Cheese. The wings were good but could have used some more seasoning. They came with delicious sides of blue cheese and ranch. The po boy was amazing – crunchy, fresh, and tangy. The French dip also tasted fresh and was warm and comforting. The tots were hot and crispy! The Mac and cheese was creamy!
