Had been waiting to come here since they reopened and it did not disappoint. Plan to come back and try all the mussels on the menu. Had no idea it came with fries and bread! Which is the BEST so you can soak up all the delicious broth. Shout out to my man Jim who took such amazing care of us. Great selection of beers on tap. We got the pear arugula salad with chicken, Thai curry mussels, and the wheat beer. All 10 outta 10. Can't wait to visit again.
Fantastic mussels and a great Belgian beer selection. When you see Straffe Hendrik on tap, you know it’s a great place. The original St Arnold’s mussels were delicious with great broth for dipping your bread. The frites were perfect and included mayo for dipping. Thanks to our super friendly bartender! Sad I didn’t get her name, but she was great! Bonus…friendly patrons at the bar with us. Overall great experience and highly recommend if you love Belgian beers and/or mussels and frites.
St. Arnolds is an institution. The mussel pots are amazing. Duck fat or Thai curry, you cannot go wrong. Oh yeah. And the fries - Whew
Haven't been here in 5 years and was so happy to see it still open and as great as I remember! If you are a fan of mussels this is a must and if you're not this place might just change your mind. Fantastic food and great beers, I highly recommend trying it out.
So pleased to see this place is open again! We had some very delicious mussels and really enjoyed the hospitality and service from our waitress Stephanie. We will definitely be back!
This is a hidden neighborhood gem. From the street it looked closed but once you walk in, it's a very lively place where you can have a tasty lunch and catch a sports game. The actual mussles were nice and meaty and the service was prompt and friendly. For my order, I added shrimp. For the $5 upgrade, I literally had 5 pieces of meduim-sized shrimp. But overall, I was well-pleased with the mussels and the variety on the menu.
the waiter made it sound like she got what you want but misunderstood you 100%. amazing food and beer selection.Food: 5/5
After being closed because of the pandemic, St. Arnold's has returned in full force. Freshly remodeled, the place still has its same original charm. They have plenty of European beers on tap that come in 3 different sizes as well as imports in bottles and cans. If u make it there in time try the mussels of course, if not stay for the hospitality. Lorraine is usually behind the bar, and she is an amazing hostess and bartender.
Oh how I have missed you all at St. Arnold's. Great deals, great food, excellent customer service. Favorite place to relax and grab a drink after work in D.C. I'd pay just to sip the broth that the mussels come in, that good. Thank you all for always treating your customers with respect. Will be back tomorrow!! :
Was so happy to find they had reopened and I could enjoy some great moules frites again!
