Bar wins best place to watch the game in our readers poll
Congratulations to the Vienna Inn, which was chosen as the "best place to watch the game" in our Readers' Choice poll. The bar edged out a handful of other restaurants in the Vienna-Oakton area, including Outback Steakhouse, Famous Dave's and Tequila Grande. It beat the second-place choice, Santini's in Oakton, by seven votes. The Vienna Inn, which has been on Maple Avenue since 1960, is often a resident favorite for both its history and its family-friendly environment. "The Vienna Inn's unrefined charm has made it a steadfast landmark that may grow older, but has not aged a day," the restaurant says on its website. For complete final results, click here.
