Frontpage in Ballston has always been a sports bar to me, similar to its neighbors Union Jack's, Rock Bottom and Bailey's. Besides hosting a few charity fundraisers, I thought of Frontpage as another place for jerseys to gather during football season.
But after getting a $20 coupon for a $40 meal at Frontpage from LivingSocial, I decided to try their dinner options. I was pleasantly surprised that the dining section was more upscale than I expected, with white table cloths, large booths, and a menu with prime ribs, crab cakes, and tasty appetizers. Now I know why the restaurant was featured on the cover of Northern Virginia magazine in May.
Frontpage's weekly dinner specials are:
- Monday - Seafood bar (also Wii Night)
- Tuesday - Lobster
- Wednesday - 1/2 price burgers
- Thursday - 2 for $1 tacos from 5-8pm
- Friday - Different every week
- Saturday - Rib Special
- Sunday - Prime Rib (also Wii Night)
