Wilson Hardware: Trendy Cocktail Bar & New American Cuisine in Arlington

When you think about going to a bottomless brunch in this area, you'd probably convince yourself that you're going to spend $100 or more. I love that this bottomless brunch was less than $30 a person, and the bottomless mimosas were only $16 per person. You truly can't beat that deal. The selection of food for the bottomless option were plentiful. I came for New Year's Day brunch, I'm not sure if this option is available on a regular basis. But my absolute best & favorite part of my experience and time here was the manager, Nico. He was super accommodating, and absolutely friendly. His amazing energy was absolutely infectious. He mentioned he only had 2 hours of sleep from the night before, and you would never have been able to tell that by the way that man was moving around the restaurant. He made his rounds to every table making sure that everybody was okay. I saw him go above and beyond for not our table but other tables as well. His interactions with the patrons is something that would make me come back even though I'm not even from the area. He's a gem, so pleasant and I hope he sees this!

Awesome happy hour and the food was actually phenomenal. Got the Brussels spouts which were excellent. Then did the half price Wednesday grilled chicken sandwiches… which were superb. Fries were great too. Rare to get a great restaurant experience with the crazy prices. Fortunately, this experience was awesome. Also, the place was huge. I can imagine this hopping on a weekend night.

We hosted our post elopement celebration here and it was a 10/10 experience! We highly recommend them for hosting events, very communicative, great flexibility and attention to detail, and the food from the buffet was amazing! Thank you so much for making our day so special!

We enjoyed this place. We had a couple drinks downstairs. They were a little pricey. ($16 and 19 per drink). Nice location. Air conditioning was not working well. It was 85 inside. Service was good. I would recommend this place.

Great service, great environment. We had a fantastic time. I was pleasantly surprised by the food, which was well above the average for the area. We will need to try other menu items when we return.

Enjoyed the delicious brunch here on a Saturday morning. We were surprised that we were the only ones in the entire restaurant two days before Christmas. We ordered chicken and waffles, the breakfast sandwich, and the mimosa! Our wonderful server brought us over yogurt parfait as a free treat while we waited for our meals. Excellent customer service! Would highly recommend as the prices were not too high.

Once the Life of the Party — Now Just a Whisper of It. . . . Wilson Hardware will always have a soft spot in my heart. I was there at the opening years ago — back when the DJ nights hit differently, Halloween parties packed the rooftop, and birthdays turned into full-blown reunions. The energy used to be electric; it was the Arlington hotspot that always promised a good time. Lately though, something’s changed. The vibe feels quieter — maybe post-COVID fatigue, maybe a shift in crowd or management. The cocktails are still good, and the rooftop still gives that warm city-night glow, but the spark that once made Hardware the place to be feels dimmer now. Still, it’s worth a visit for nostalgia’s sake — grab a drink, people-watch, and remember the good old Hardware days when the beats were louder, the crowd was tighter, and the night felt endless.

We attended NYE celebration did not eat can't comment on the food. The music and the ambiance is perfect to give a club vibes. Security was very tight. Definitely we will attend future events.
