点评:This somewhat upscale restaurant in a trendy part of Ashburn, Va was just average. The decor is contemporary with 2 levels of seating and an outdoor area. Our server (Eugene) was very efficient and most helpful. He took our order not long after we sat down and the food arrived quickly. 2 of us had fish & chips. Both of us agreed they were nothing special. There were 2 medium sized pieces of fish and a load of fries. There was an incredibly small side of weird tasting cold slaw and not enough tarter sauce. The fish & chips were just tossed on a hot metal plate. It was ok but far from a creative serving. I’d have liked less fries and another piece of fish. My friend had a salad that was huge and he ate it all so it must have been good. Having said that we had ordered mini-cheeseburgers for an appetizer and they tasted great. It made me wish I had gotten one of their gourmet burgers instead of the fish & chips. Prices were quite reasonable.
Be aware it was WAY too loud in the high ceilinged 2nd floor. You could hardly carry on a conversation. I suppose I’d go back as it wasn’t really bad but places like this are everywhere. There’s really nothing to distinguish Matchbox from dozens of other restaurants that cater to the under 40 crowd.
翻译:这家位于弗吉尼亚州阿什本时尚街区的高档餐厅,味道一般。餐厅装潢现代,设有两层座位和一个户外区域。我们的服务员(Eugene)效率很高,非常乐于助人。我们入座后不久,他就为我们点了餐,食物也很快上桌。我们两个人点了炸鱼薯条。我们都觉得没什么特别的。只有两块中等大小的炸鱼和一大堆薯条。冷凉菜心的分量非常少,味道怪怪的,塔塔酱也不够。炸鱼薯条只是简单地拌在热腾腾的金属盘子里。味道还行,但谈不上什么创意。我希望能少点薯条,再来一块炸鱼。我朋友点了一份很大的沙拉,他一口气吃完了,所以应该还不错。不过,我们点了迷你芝士汉堡作为开胃菜,味道也很棒。这让我真希望点的是他们的美味汉堡而不是炸鱼薯条。价格也相当合理。
注意,二楼天花板很高,噪音实在太大了,几乎无法交谈。我估计以后还会再去,因为环境其实还不错,但这种地方到处都是。Matchbox 和其他几十家面向 40 岁以下人群的餐厅真的没什么区别。
