The Scene – Hardwood floors, calming earth tones and handsome booths set the stage for a trendy dining experience in the former home of restaurants Tea Tray in the Sky and Elements. An attractive, welcoming bar sports a casual vibe and provides a comfortable spot for solo diners. Tryst's wine list yields a handful of bargains, including a few quality bottles around $25. Attentive servers are careful not to distract from the romantic atmosphere. – – The Food – The accessible menu of modern American fare places an emphasis on local, seasonal ingredients. Pan-seared…

Nice restaurant
by MPR70 at Citysearch
Just tried Tryst for the first time last week....we sat at the bar and had a great bartender. The food was great and service was good. We would like to have sat at the tables in the bar area, but it was crowded. A few more high top tables would be good, but otherwise a nice place to go for a drink and casual dinner.
- Pros: atmosphere

if you want a drink in Arlington
by ARL02476 at Citysearch
Arlington being a "dry" town doesn't have any bars, per se, but if you want a drink you can get one with a meal - or just an appetizer- so one heads to Tryst. At lest that is what most Arlingtonians that I know say to do . . . I'm new in town & I have been a few times with friends who wanted a drink.
The drinks are fine. The appetizers are good. the service is not what it should be. There is a difference between an unobtrusive server and one that ignores her/his customers.
I recently went f or a meal with friends. Do not s it in the back area. It is a dead zone. Uncomfortable booths. Unattractive decor. Stick in the front & sit at one of the small tables or at the bar. The back dining room looks like an after thought. And we sort of felt we ere too while having our meal there.
- Pros: You can get a drink in Arlington
- Cons: you have to order it from one of their "haters"

The previous review was written by an irrational guest who had refused to pay for her coffee. After drinking two cups she said that she didn't drink coffee and that it should have been free.
