Northern Virginia

Really cool memorial, very close to the Lincoln Memorial. Free to the public, no tickets needed. The memorial has life size soldier statues in the grass area. If you’re walking down the path from the Lincoln to the Korean War Memorial, look to you left once you arrive and you’ll see the Washington Monument.

I visited this store today for the first time (on 5/26/23). The manager was the most friendly/happy person. You can tell she loves what she does and it shows in the store. It’s very well organized and they have some really nice items. I took photos today. See below. The dresses (wedding dresses and other formal dresses. Some of the wedding dresses are brand new with tags from a bridal store that closed). Definitely worth checking it out.

I ordered their NY Strip and it was one of the best steaks I’ve ever had, it was cooked to perfection. The fries were so great, crispy, hot and delicious! One of my pet peeves is restaurants that don’t have good fries, but Clyde’s didn’t disappoint. We’ve been looking for a place that had a great steak and fries, well this is it! Thank you to the chef, amazing!

They have different dining rooms. The one directly to the right of the front door has these cool carriages hanging from the ceiling! This room has a bar and booths, it’s more casual than the rooms toward the back of the restaurant. If you’re looking for more of a romantic feel, ask for the dining area straight back and to the right.
