Best Modern Southern American Restaurants in Falls Church

It's like grandma became a Michelin-quality chef. The items we ordered were: Biscuits, ridiculously fluffly with melted butter; Deviled Eggs, whites were breaded and fried with bacon and scallions; Fried Green Tomatoes served with leafy greens, corn and vinaigrette could have been mistaken as one of the best salads you ever ate; Carolina Gumbo had sausage, crab, rice and shrimp the size of your ear. My wife had the Ribeye, which I did not try. She's a picky eater and almost always eats half of whatever she has. This time she ate the entire plate. We were both stuffed and did not get dessert. We both had sweet tea. Sometimes you can go overboard and make it sickeningly sweet to where you grimace. The sweet tea here struck a perfect balance letting you know you're drinking sweet tea but not being concerned about developing new cavities. The menu items have that "back home favorites" feel, but they have been elevated by their chefs to be something more. A real turn off is going to a restaurant where the wait staff act like they are doing you a favor. It was our server's first week and they were prompt, professional and a hoot to talk to. They enjoyed being there and that made the mood for our evening so much more relaxed and fun. The price range is what you would expect for this quality restaurant; not cheap but not absurdly expensive either. It felt right for the quality of food you were given.

I had a wonderful experience. From the greeter at the door who was very professional to the manager checking in on us to the waitress and cooks every one was phenomenal !! I will definitely be back again ! 

Glad you put the LARGE PANCAKES back on the menu. My experience at M&H is always a good one as your servers and all that work there are very pleasant and willing to assist one that. is elderly.

We were a group of 9 which our waiter handled very well! Everything was great but especially the ambiance
