Best WLM Reviews

I recently visited B Live and had an absolutely fantastic experience! The atmosphere was lively and fun, and the seasonal cocktails were absolutely delicious. The bartenders were friendly and knowledgeable, and really helped to make the experience even more enjoyable. I particularly loved the OG Burger, but the Patron tree was definitely the star of the show. The overall vibe of the place was great and I would definitely recommend B Live to anyone looking for a fun night out with friends especially if you're a fan of live music! I'm already planning my next visit!

Blive was absolutely amazing! The food was so fresh! The staff was so kind! Special shoutout to Emily who took great care of us! The food was super affordable and the restaurant decor was an absolute vibe! I will 100% come back here again.

The chicken tender and fries portion was amazing for the price! The patron Christmas tree was fantastic and great for a group as it came with four different flavors so something for everyone! The Peruvian wings were cooked to perfection and seasoned so well! Finally, the Mac and cheese croquettes were the Mac and cheese bites of your dreams!

Service was slow at first. But our waitress stepped up and he had a ball for our 1st time. Chicken and waffles gave DMV flavor vibes with a touch of Old Bay, and the mimosas were great, esp the Grapefruit!

Update for the Brunch Sunday May 7 2023.

Met a few friends for an impromptu brunch. The bottomless brunch food was Meh...the salad and Salmon were the better options other than the crableg add on. Main complaint was that we were told the brunch was ending early (with no advance notice) to accommodate patrons for an upcoming event. Would have been nice to have been given the option for a last call, or even had this mentioned when we were seated.

For those of you who are looking for a great classic American meal with great prices, a fun vibe, great service and instagram-worthy cocktails, look no further. Dare I say, B Live has some of the best food I’ve had in Arlington, if not the best burger I’ve had in the DMV!

So far, I have visited twice and have ordered the Pretzel, Chicken Wings, Mac and Cheese croquettes, the “OG” and “Oh my Truffle” burgers with fries. I watched the movie “The Menu” recently and the OG burger completely satisfied my hard craving for a cheeseburger! The fries are incredibly delicious and perfectly seasoned, even great leftover! I’m not a pretzel gal, but I ate it up which is saying a lot. The cheese sauce it comes with is big and I definitely recommend dipping more than just the pretzel into it!

Now… the mac n cheese croquettes are my favorite app. I’m a die-hard mac and cheese lover and these are a slam dunk. Our table kept talking about the chicken wings, we got the Peruvian flavor and were stunned how they can have grilled/fried wings (it’s hard to comprehend so just go it them you’ll see what I’m talking about lol).

All in all I love visiting B Live for great food and a great time with friends. Definitely take time to go and order many things to try!

The vibe and the band were great. The drinks were strong and delicious and the staff was very friendly. I didn’t try the food but it looked like typical bar food.

Christmas pop up is SO cute and I love that it's in NoVA. Drinks were phenomenal, but the food was what shocked us. Looking at the menu, it's typical bar food and lots of burger options...but we were so pleasantly surprised how good it was! The Peruvian wings knocked us out the park, burger was tasty and pretzel w/beer cheese is a must if you go! Mac & cheese croquettes were good, standard imo but good bar food. Drinks we're delightful!

❄️ Down the chimney (smokey, flavourful)

❄️ Mrs. Clause chocolate martini (great classic)

❄️ Snowman on Vacay (STRONG, fruity)

❄️ CEREAL SHOOTERS Strong & unique way to end the evening but I'd reccomend not mixing all the cereal in it cause it was hard to swallow LOL

Overall B Live gets a 10/10 & will 100% come back here.

Visited several times in 2023. Except for the brief presence of the live karaoke band, this place was horrible with a capital H. Wow. Bad attitude bartenders, bad drinks, plastic cups. Constantly changing schedules. I was even charged $14 for a draft beer until I pointed it out and got a partial refund. I was really looking forward to a music-centered place but was just disappointed over and over. Badly run. Stay away.

I went to Blive not knowing what to expect. Whitlows had been a long time favorite of mine, I originally went there in 1998 for $1 draft nights on Thursdays with some friends for the first time and fell in love with the place. Being involved in with music and DJing my whole life this place was certainly unique vibe given that is all about music. You are guaranteed to see at least one artist you know on the wallpaper. The legends live forever mural of famous dead rockers is definitely a nice touch. My family and I went there for brunch and the food is absolutely amazing, but be sure to save some room for dessert because they have a peanut butter pie that is too die for. I had a smoked omelette that was cooked perfectly. They also have a wide variety of drinks ???? that are amazing like the mimosa tower to share with friends. Make sure to be safe and take an Uber. Given that my brunch experience was so amazing I went back with some friends to enjoy some of the live band entertainment the next Saturday and the place was packed. Overall the experience was great both times and I will be frequenting this establishment quite often.
