: There are two places in fairfax circle that are a must go.

  I used to work at Fairfax Circle so we hit a lot of ther lunch places. All
my info is as of about two years ago...

: Arnies (on old lee highway)-  Brass bar, American style, yuppyish, very  
: good.  $20 per if you do not drink too much.

  Are you sure you're not thinking of "Arties"? If so, I'll second that. It's
right next to the bowling alley, and has upscale bar & grill type food
(fish w/angelhair pasta,  blackened catfish, that kind of thing). 

: Mama's Italian Resturant (co-located with Tino's Sports Bar, west of  
: fairfax circle on 50)  AWESOME italian food.  period. Go.  Looks shady on  
: the outside, but a family establishment on the inside.

  Not bad either. They have a lunchtime salad bar buffet that includes a 
pretty good pizza. I wouldn't call them "awesome", but it does have that 
home-cooked feel... Esposito's (about a half mile down 50 towards Oakton) is 
a little more expensive, but also a little spiffier, IMHO. All three are 
pretty good.

  There's another Mama's on Route 7 way out past Sterling (near 7 & 28) for 
you farmers out there who like Italian food :-)
