Chick-fil-A

This area is very high traffic. Pack your patience when attempting to get in and out of the Dakota Crossings. If you have food intolerances (like me), be very clear of what you do not want in your salad. Also, a reminder for those that want to do any of their chicken for Sunday gatherings (nuggets, strips, etc) make sure you order in advance and pick up on Saturday.

My favorite Chick-fil-a location in DC. Food is always fresh and warm, service is good and fast.

We hosted our twin three-year-old boys’ birthday party here as part of the CFA “big nugget” party package and it was incredible. It was cheap, easy to plan, the staff were amazing (shoutout to Shay!!), and there was no cleanup for me before or after! Each child got a kids meal, ice cream, and a stuffed cow as a party favor, and CFA provided balloons and even the life-sized cow for photos. The kids played on the playground while the adults chatted and ate, which was awesome. And my boys’ faces when they walked into the party were priceless! We’ll definitely consider doing this again!

A Beautiful Chick-fil-a With A Bad Manager ** Updated Review!

We have returned several times and the original management and employee attitude problems that we encountered in the first few months of coming here seem to be resolved. It is now a 5 star Chick-fil-A instead of the three we felt obligated to give based on prior experiences detailed below.

This Chick-fil-A is beautifully decorated but poorly managed. You will notice that all of the poor reviews of this place mention the manager. That was our experience as well.

One time we were in the breakfast line, and it turned 10:00 right before we were up. He wouldn't let us order breakfast even though the people ahead of us Did. And this was the opening month! Unfortunately, some of the other employees there seem to have taken his attitude, and instead of seeming like it is their pleasure to serve, seem like it is their burden to serve us. Most of the employees are still very nice, but his attitude has rubbed off on some of them.

In summary, if the attitude and demeanor of the manager were as beautiful as the restaurant, this would be a wonderful location. As it stands, some changes need to be made in management at this Chick-fil-A.
