More than 50 Arlington restaurants served up sample tastings at the 28th annual Taste of Arlington on Sunday, May 17, in Ballston. The annual food+beer+music+kids+dog festival’s presenting sponsor this year was Rent Dittmar and organized by the Ballston Business Improvement District. A portion of each ticket sold was contributed to the Arlington Food Assistance Center, a community-based non-profit that provides supplemental groceries to approximately 1,600 families each week.
Top awards were presented to Il Forno for Best Appetizer, Liberty Tavern for Best Fast Casual, Water and Wall for Best Fine Dining Entrée and Northside Social for Best Dessert.
