Have lunch for two at J.R.'s Stockyards Inn, a Tyson’s Corner restaurant serving the "BEST BEEF IN VIRGINIA" for over 25 years.

From the weathered red paint on its barnlike exterior to the crock of cheddar spread that prefaces the meal, J.R.'s Stockyards Inn is a trip down memory lane. Unchanged--except for its prices--since it opened in 1978, it is a reminder of what area steakhouses were like before the prime-beef chains from Chicago, New York, New Orleans, and California arrived.
