Fun restaurant in McLean or Tysons area?

There is a new brew pub near Nordstrom Rack on 7. I have not been, but there always seems to be a crowd. If anyone has been, I would love to hear your experience.

It's called BJs. I've been for lunch on the weekends. It's a small chain, I think out of the southwest. Service is very friendly, beer is good. Food is fine. Much better than, say, Applebee's, but still a little generic. Overall, a good choice for Tyson's area but nothing unique.

Bellissimo Restaurant in Fairfax City. Super friendly without the snooty upscale.

I have never found J. Gilbert's to be "lively" unless you're over 60. Their happy hour seems to have a lot of people in that age range.

Plus their food isn't very good.
