Clare & Don's Beach Shack

Favorite restaurant in Falls Church! Best atmosphere—feels like a vacation with Key West vibe and frequent entertainment. Great for kids. Tons of great vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options.

My waitress was Miranda. She was incredible!! She helped me with my gluten and dairy allergies. The environment was so fun and summery. The band was great and what drew me to the restaurant. I give it 4 stars b/c I ordered a Virgin Piña Colada (smoothie), but after 2 sips I thought it was extremely sweet so I asked Miranda for another drink. When I got the bill the manager still charged me for the drink I only took 2 sips of. Miranda tried to get the manager to remove it, but he said no. I'm the type of person that would go to the manager and fight it, but I had such an amazing night and Miranda was so great, that I let it go. So just warning you, the manager WILL NOT take your drink off your bill even if you take one sip and aren't satisfied. Honestly, I don't think that's right, but the atmosphere and staff are great.
