We attended NYE celebration did not eat can’t comment on the food. The music and the ambiance is perfect to give a club vibes. Security was very tight. Definitely we will attend future events.

Once the Life of the Party — Now Just a Whisper of It. . . . ♀️
Wilson Hardware will always have a soft spot in my heart. I was there at the opening years ago — back when the DJ nights hit differently, Halloween parties packed the rooftop, and birthdays turned into full-blown reunions. The energy used to be electric; it was the Arlington hotspot that always promised a good time.
Lately though, something’s changed. The vibe feels quieter — maybe post-COVID fatigue, maybe a shift in crowd or management. The cocktails are still good, and the rooftop still gives that warm city-night glow, but the spark that once made Hardware the place to be feels dimmer now.
Still, it’s worth a visit for nostalgia’s sake — grab a drink, people-watch, and remember the good old Hardware days when the beats were louder, the crowd was tighter, and the night felt endless. ✨

When you think about going to a bottomless brunch in this area, you’d probably convince yourself that you’re going to spend $100 or more. I love that this bottomless brunch was less than $30 a person, and the bottomless mimosas were only $16 per person. You truly can’t beat that deal. The selection of food for the bottomless option were plentiful. I came for New Year’s Day brunch, I’m not sure if this option is available on a regular basis.
But my absolute best & favorite part of my experience and time here was the manager, Nico. He was super accommodating, and absolutely friendly. His amazing energy was absolutely infectious. He mentioned he only had 2 hours of sleep from the night before, and you would never have been able to tell that by the way that man was moving around the restaurant. He made his rounds to every table making sure that everybody was okay. I saw him go above and beyond for not our table but other tables as well. His interactions with the patrons is something that would make me come back even though I’m not even from the area. He’s a gem, so pleasant and I hope he sees this!

I really wanted to like Wilson Hardware given its location and the buzz around it, but unfortunately, my experience fell flat across the board.
Starting with the drinks — pretty underwhelming. I tried a couple of their cocktails, and both tasted like they were pre-mixed or just lazily thrown together. No balance, no creativity. You expect more from a place that markets itself as a trendy bar and restaurant. The flavor profiles were either too sweet or totally bland. Honestly, I’ve had better cocktails at much smaller, less-hyped places. They weren’t terrible, just very average… and forgettable.
The food was another miss. I tried a few of their small plates and a main entrée, and everything was just… meh. Nothing was outright bad, but nothing was memorable either. For the price point, the execution felt very phoned-in — like they’re relying more on the ambiance than the actual quality of the menu. The flavors didn’t pop, plating was basic, and overall it lacked the kind of attention to detail that makes you want to come back.
As for the atmosphere, it was okay. The décor is nice and somewhat modern-industrial, which seems to be the vibe they’re going for. It does feel like they’re trying to be both a bar and a restaurant, and they kind of land somewhere in the middle — not quite succeeding at either. The music was loud but not unbearable, and the crowd leaned more toward the bar-hopping scene, even on a weekday. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it doesn’t make for a very relaxed or intimate dinner setting if that’s what you’re after.
Service was… fine. Staff was courteous but not very engaged. I didn’t get the sense that anyone was particularly interested in providing a great experience — more like just going through the motions. It wasn’t slow, but it also wasn’t warm or attentive. No one checked back on drinks or food unless flagged down, and that kind of set the tone for the whole night.
Overall, I wouldn’t say Wilson Hardware is bad, but there was nothing — absolutely nothing — that stood out in a positive way. If you’re looking for a place to grab a drink with a group and don’t care much about quality, it might work for that. But if you’re expecting a food-forward experience, great cocktails, or standout service, there are far better options nearby. It just feels like this place is coasting on aesthetics and location rather than actually delivering a compelling dining or drinking experience.
Verdict: Not worth going out of your way for. Plenty of better spots around.

I expected better food and service for Sunday brunch as diners have a plethora of options nearby. There was an inordinate amount of time between the server coming to take the order to when the food actually arrived. It definitely teetered towards 14 minutes and it wasn’t really busy for fathers day brunch. When the food arrived, I was shocked to find the sides of bacon we ordered was cold. The server did offer to get another order, I regret that decision as the flavor of bacon was overwhelmed by the suet and it was unsavory. The short rib hash and French toast tasted fine. The rest of the order of chicken and waffles and roasted cauliflower were mediocre. Will probably return for cocktails but that’s about it.

Enjoyed the delicious brunch here on a Saturday morning. We were surprised that we were the only ones in the entire restaurant two days before Christmas. We ordered chicken and waffles, the breakfast sandwich, and the mimosa! Our wonderful server brought us over yogurt parfait as a free treat while we waited for our meals. Excellent customer service! Would highly recommend as the prices were not too high.

The restaurant boasts modern and charming decor across three floors, including a rooftop area. They offer a decently sized menu with slightly expensive drinks. The service is friendly and efficient, with our food arriving promptly. We tried a variety of dishes including calamari, wings, sliders, and garlic shrimp. Overall, the food was average without standing out, but the drinks were enjoyable.

Awesome happy hour and the food was actually phenomenal. Got the Brussels spouts which were excellent. Then did the half price Wednesday grilled chicken sandwiches… which were superb. Fries were great too. Rare to get a great restaurant experience with the crazy prices. Fortunately, this experience was awesome. Also, the place was huge. I can imagine this hopping on a weekend night.

Their Sunday brunch is good for groups as we had we had a party of 9 and were able to get a reservation the day prior by calling. When we arrived I was surprised the restaurant was so large and there weren’t a lot of other patrons there. We were seated on the 2nd level and it was a bit humid/hot up there likely because we were near the door to their patio seating. We were seated for 10-15 mins before my boyfriend went to inquire about our server. We received complimentary parfaits while we waited for our food to arrive so I thought that was nice.
The brunch menu didn’t have a large selection of food items and we did make some substitutions to things ordered. I had the short rib hash; the short rib was cooked perfectly and was seasoned well. The “hash” was actually shredded hashbrowns plated with the short rib. So I ordered a side of home fries with my dish. I also ordered a plain toasted croissant and made a pretty good sandwich with my short rib. My boyfriend had the grilled chicken sandwich and at first the server stated he couldn’t make the breast a fried chicken breast. But I asked if it could just be the fried chicken that is served with the chicken and waffles and they were able to make the substitution and the sandwich was pretty good.
Great deal on the mimosa carafes at $20 per person we each ordered one. The mimosas were more champagne which we liked and we ended ordering additional carafes because we ended up staying well past brunch ended. We split everything 9 ways and paid ~$58 per person, so definitely a good value. I do think if I were to dine here again I would go with a smaller group so I could be seated on the first floor and I would try to go for lunch or dinner to explore a different menu.

We enjoyed this place. We had a couple drinks downstairs. They were a little pricey. ($16 and 19 per drink). Nice location. Air conditioning was not working well. It was 85 inside. Service was good. I would recommend this place.
