Slapfish

Joana O'Brien

I typically do not look at other people's reviews, because I do not want to be influenced by them. I ran into Slapfish on one of the food delivery apps and couldn't help myself... the name was just too inviting! After drooling over the menu and being upset that we couldn't order anything (one of the kids is allergic to shellfish - it's a real drag), we decided to have a date night on kid-free Friday. We arrived at One Loudoun and just WOW! Amazing place (I guess I'll have to review that at some point). We located Slapfish and hurried over. It was about 5:15 pm and the place was completely empty. I greeted the cashier at the other end of the room but perhaps she didn't hear me. The reviews are about right. The food is mostly delicious, the service "eh" and everything is a bit sticky. I dubbed it the Chipotle of Seafood mostly because it has a fast-food style setup (you have to clear your table) and it's modern but efficient. I spent $16 on the raman, lobster claw and shrimp burrito. It comes with raman, egg, spinach, carrots, one lobster claw and I think I made it to four shrimp. Lots of "something" sauce. Not good. Mostly raman. Let's talk about the side of deep-fried, house-made pickles - to die for! The pickles were so freshly made that the actual cucumber flavor was still present. I want to go back and try them not deep-fried... oh, watch your tongue! They are seriously deep-fried minutes before arriving at your table. Finally, the CLOBSTER Grilled Cheese sandwich may be the best sandwich I've ever had. It is PACKED with lobster meat and the bread is toasted just right with a nice yummy buttery crust. Do not go without trying this. Also, see that little bowl of fries? For an upcharge (not sure how much) you can (correction: WILL) get the Chowder Fries. Amazing and even though it sounds delicious, it's even better than it sounds! I will go back because I now know where to focus. I recommend going but don't expect a luxury seafood restaurant, expect what it is: The Chipotle of Seafood.

Delicious, satisfying, and savory. Slap to the senses of flavors and cooked perfectionism. All seafood 🦞 menu and fish themed. Wonderful lunch.

I’m gonna give it a 2 star because I like this restaurant but this experience wasn’t a good one. Thank you Samantha for ruining my experience. I hope they are paying u good money for the way that you acted. And I’m thinking she gave me this very disgusting looking clam chowder on purpose because I didn’t agree with her on something. But it’s cool I know not to come back when she’s working. Now I am afraid to eat my other meal because I think she may have poisoned it. That’s not how y’all clam chowder soup looks. It wasn’t edible it was a jelly like texture and I refused to taste it. If it was sitting up there for a long time u should’ve told me instead of giving me that nasty soup. Also, If I was able to get what I requested I should be able to get the same service everytime. Don’t play with me. That really ruined my night. Especially with that nasty soup. I work in Arlington I couldn’t return it. She made me never wanna come back. And atp I don’t think I will. Edit. I’ve emailed them twice since this incident and also called them out on social media. I’m guessing this a private company that doesn’t care to much about negative reviews. Now it’s official I will never return here. I changed my star from a 2 star too a 1 star.

Finally got to try Slapfish today and I was truly impressed. Everything from the power bowl to the lobster roll was amazing! Fresh ingredients, great portions and friendly service. I can wait to go back!
