Hamrock's Restaurant is located within the Moore-McCandlish House (built 1842) in the heart of historic Fairfax City. We've been proud to serve delicious made-to-order American dishes using fresh ingredients since our establishment in 2016. We also have a wonderful hand-selected wine list to enhance your dining experience. Approximately eighty-percent of our menu is-- or can be-- gluten-free, as we use only canola and olive oil in all of our cooking. Some of our best-selling dishes are our southern fried chicken, grilled meatloaf, and crab cakes-- all which are gluten free! Other menu favorites include our deviled eggs, firecracker shrimp, Atlantic grilled salmon, roasted pork tenderloin, and penne pasta with andouille sausage & shrimp. We have beautiful year-round outdoor seating options on our wrap around porch (we have heaters!) In the warmer months, we also open our courtyard. We're also more than happy to accommodate business dinners or other special occasions in private rooms.

    Food is always good and consistent. Service was slow, but maybe because of restaurant week. Hamrock's is still a gem and love going there.

    We are particularly happy with Hamrock's. We went there today for brunch for a combined birthday celebration. It was our second visit. Our first visit was our first date. Staff is wonderful and the food today was excellent. I had the steak and eggs and my partner had the avocado dish. My steak was wonderful and she was really happy with her avocado salads. We definitely will be dining there again.
