Artie's

FAIRFAX. For traditional American fare in a family-friendly setting, try this classic eatery. Artie's specializes in burgers, steaks, chicken, and pastas. Baskets of bread – fresh-baked slices from a local bakery or the restaurant's own addictive fried "Ozzies" – go nicely with microbrews or wines by the glass. As a grand finale, indulge in the Chocolate Hurricane dessert. Simple dark-wood decor and a friendly waitstaff make the place a favorite of locals and visitors. Weekend brunch served. Reservations recommended.
