Among the “40 Eats” listed in the Washington Post’s Weekend Guide that every “must try” are two familiar dishes from Ashburn restaurants–one that expanded to the community and the other that recently expanded from the community.
While they do not appear to be in any particular order, I’ll include the numbers to make them easier to find among the Post’s picks.
Urban BBQ Company’s Soul Rolls. Patch introduced the Maryland-based company to the community last year. The Soul Rolls are delicious, but you’ll need to take an appetite because they are filling.
Ford’s Fish Shack’s Fish and Chips. Ford’s opened its first restaurant in 2010 in Ashburn right after Ashburn Patch launched, but in its short life has already expanded to South Riding. The fish and chips are a favorite of mine.

Just tried Ford's for the first time for Brunch yesterday. Food was excellent--highly recommend the crab cake eggs benedict!

Love Ford's. They are living proof that you can make just about any location work when your food and service are good. The other restaurants that occupied the spot Ford's (Cameron Chase) is in never understood that. I asked a manager of one of those failed restaurants why his restaurant was empty most of the time and he blamed the location- right off a main road in the heart of Ashburn. Then I tried the food and knew they would be gone.
If you serve good food, they will come.....Ford's knows.
