Trummer's Restaurant

"Located in picturesque Clifton, this restaurant is worth the 25-mile detour outside of the city. It has three working fireplaces — one on the bar and two in the mid-level loft dining room. Order anything from wienerschnitzel to whole branzino to enjoy alongside." - Mekita Rivas, Eater Staff

"Starting Thursday, December 8 at this polished Clifton, Virginia restaurant, a different holiday beverage flies on and off the menu for 12 days straight. The lineup hasn’t been revealed yet, but last year’s offerings included flights of eggnog, clarified cookie milk spiked with brandy and vanilla, and a “Christmas Morning” cocktail made with rum, gingerbread, coconut, and hot cocoa foam." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb

"Pastry chef Amanda Siever showcases krapfen — Austrian-style doughnuts — stuffed with blueberry and white chocolate no-bake cheesecake at the quaint American bistro in Clifton, Virginia. Owners Stefan and Victoria Trummer recently rehired Zachary Ridenhour as their new executive chef. The veteran of Bluejacket, The Salt Line, and most recently Alta Strada Mosaic returns to Trummer’s after 13 years." - Emily Wishingrad

"Clifton, Virginia’s lauded Trummer’s restaurant (7134 Main Street) is taking over the weeknight cooking with take-home pasta kits ($88) with house-made tagliatelle pasta made with Clifton eggs, Autumn Olive pork and beef bolognese, parm, a mixed green salad, and housemade focaccia. Order here for same-day pickup at the restaurant." - Stephanie Carter

"The recently renovated eatery in the quaint town of Clifton has a three-course dinner for $35 per person (minimum of two).

Weekend brunch calls for blueberry pancakes and cinnamon sugar beignets ($28 per person)." - Adele Chapin
