“Superb authentic Indian food. The real taste of south Indian cuisines, well cooked and every item on the Buffet was tasty. The staff greet you with a smile and really take care of your choice of food and also give their suggestions to try other dishes too. They had mild, medium and high spicy foods displayed in the buffet. The atmosphere was very nice, clean and looked very hygienic. I would highly recommend this restaurant, a must try, if you like Indian food. I will certainly go there again. Thanks a million, Keep it up.”
“The steak is usually the best, but being this was father's day and the kitchen was slammed with orders, I'm sure their attention to making the steaks right was not a priority. My wife's rib eye was charred on the ends and dry in the middle on a medium well order same with my son's NY strip. My food was good and my other son got a filet ordered medium and it was cooked right. Service was slow for obvious reasons. Atmosphere was great although Dirty.”
“Best Ramen and Rice Bowls in town!!!! They are alway so nice and the place is always clean. FYI, in keeping with a proper Ramen establishment, it is small with limited seating. If you have to wait, it is well worth the wait.”
“Excellent food and customer service. Spicy fish was top notch, and injara bread was really good as well. You must try it for sure 👍. Atmosphere was amazing too.”
“The bread was bussin, the calamari tasted like fried egg but in a good way. The mozarella sticks on the other hand could use better breading. The server was friendly but a bit pushy when I couldn’t eat everything. Which is understandable. Gotta be a conservationist. But lesson learned for next time. Just get the bread and calamari. 👍🏻”

“I recently got introduced to this place, the food quality and taste is amazing. Their Sandwiches and Vada Pav, if you are into street food, are worth trying. Also, the people who run this place are warm and welcoming. I would definitely count on this place in Herndon-Reston area.”

“Chaatwala is hands down one of the best spots in Herndon for authentic Indian food! The chaats are amazing – super fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of spice. The dosas are perfectly crispy, and the curries are rich and delicious. The staff is really friendly, service is quick, and the portions are generous. You can tell they put a lot of care into the food and it shows in every bite. If you’re looking for great Indian street food and comfort dishes in Northern Virginia, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend! Maja aa gaya!!!”
“I am so happy to discover GreenFare Organic Cafe in Herndon, VA! Their food is delicious and healthy. I highly recommend the mushroom enchilada and pumpkin soup! If you are looking to treat your body well without compromising taste, I highly recommend you check it out!”
“The food great, better then others, it was hot fresh and delicious, I had the chicken with mix vegetables. And it came with a egg roll. Long time since I has a delicious egg roll. Place was clean. The only thing was the mechine that you can order your food on. Coming to get Chinese food to places like this it feels great when someone takes your order. Overall 👍 great.”
“I recommend everything about this place. Pieros corner is a true neighborhood restaurant authentic Italian restaurant. Everything on the menu is absolutely amazing. The owner, the staff, the servers everybody is excellent at this place and the food is phenomenal, especially their pizzas and their seafood.”
“We have been going to Kumo Sushi since it first opened about 14 years ago. It is the best sushi restaurant in the entire DMV area!! The quality is top notch. The service is wonderful, they treat us like family every time we go in! It is also very family friendly and Mia is the best!! If you haven’t been to Kumo Sushi please go!”

“Food was great for the value, we are sushi fans so we really enjoyed the varieties, fish was fresh, slices of scallops were a bit thin but still sweet, although did taste a little bit of fishiness.. sweet shrimp was not big but amazingly sweet, tuna belly ( Toro) was so good and oily like the way it's supposed to. Ikura ( salmon caviar) second to none, a la carte sushi places doesn't even have this quality. there are 10 sushi chef there you're not going to get the same thing all the time but I don't have an issue with that.. generally it's pretty standard things with sauce may tastes a bit different because each chef may put on different amount.. we eat sushi everywhere even in major cities like California, Chicago, Dallas and New York, we enjoy ayce sushi, Bottom line is $35 is a great value for what they offer.”
“Exelent food and service I'll give them 5 stars I strong recommend”

“For several years, the pizzas from Great Falls Deli Italiano were wonderful. Then the problems started - always something unsatisfactory with every order. And the pizza toppings were extremely skimpy. So we stopped ordering from them. Yesterday we decided to give them another try. Glad we did - the Quattro Formaggi pizza and the big steak sub were both delicious. Of course, based on previous experiences with skimpy toppings, I paid for extra amounts of each of the cheeses on the pizza. Do not know what it would be like without paying for extra amounts of toppings.”
“This time we went with family members. We tried different varieties. We all enjoyed revert items ordered. Food was delicious , fresh, and tasty. The service was even better. Our server Rakesh was very pleasant, helpful. Made us feel like we are at home. Iwe will go back with more family members. I recommend this place to everyone who enjoy vegetarian meals.”
“Took my kiddo there last night and as soon as we tried it, we knew this is our new favorite local ice cream! Absolutely delicious, perfectly creamy and not too sweet. And then, the cherry on top: we ordered two more cups to take home to the rest of the family and we noticed that one came out with a much smaller scoop than the other. Wasn’t going to say anything about it (the scoops are very generous to begin with), but then out of nowhere a couple comes over and tells us they are going to get us an extra scoop. And within seconds, they did! We were too shocked to talk with them more but a little sleuthing online when we got home revealed they were the owners! This act of generosity and customer service made a big impact on my kiddo (and me) and cemented this place as our new favorite! Can’t wait to go back!!”
“LOVED Madina Pollo Reina! We got the chicken kabobs and they were soooo delicious! All of our sides were really tasty, too! We also got vegetable samosas which were perfectly fried! The spicy green sauce with the samosas was great! Definitely ordering from there again!!!! 😋”
“The food was great! Second time dining here and it definitely won’t be my last! 👌”

“Pinch & Peck came through for my daughter’s graduation party. Cookies looked and tasted delicious. They were the first to go, thank goodness I snuck 1 to save for later. I highly recommend Pinch & Peck. Gave them my ideas and we were able to execute it. Will use them again for future events.”
“Love this place..have been bringing my friends here to get them to try their food. They are loving the food and are now excited to have a new place for lunches with for filling food and decent prices. Getting a smoothie or a bowl is a added bonus.”
“My family had a lovely vegan veggie plate dinner. We shared three veggie plates between six people, and that was plenty of food. The injera was cooked perfectly for scooping. The greens and lentils were flavorfully seasoned. Dinner was a great value with plenty of delicious food for the price. Tensu will soon need to expand their dining area, because the food and service are amazing!”
“If you are new to Afghan cuisine or familiar with Americanized versions, you will be in for a treat. This is an authentic Afghan restaurant. The kofta, spiced meat, and kadoo, roasted pumpkin, are exceptional. I always stop here whenever I'm dropping someone off or picking them up at IAD, and I recommend you do the same.”
“I have made this restaurant part of my weekly rotation of restaurants. The food is fantastic, plentiful, and well prepared. The owners and staff and kind and at times know how to work a room. I recommend eating here. The Euro Bistro serves up all of the German staples as well as at times off the menu items that are just incredible.”
“love this place. the decor is simple but very nice atmosphere. we ordered the pho and ramen and they were very good. the broth is yummy. the is a lot of chicken in the ramen. the service was quick and friendly. there was a steady stream of take out orders. definitely returning.”
“I gave Wooboi a 5-star review on Yelp many years ago and I 100% stand by that rating today.
For me the Junior is the perfect size. I also thought it was a good price at $8. I got spice level 1 today which was definitely mild as the name suggests. I will probably do 2 next time. I loved how hot and crispy the chicken and the fries were when they came out. Every component of the sandwich was delicious and added something special. I also appreciate how the chicken sticks out of the sandwich because it makes me feel like they’re giving extra chicken. In my opinion the seasoning on the chicken is what sets Wooboi apart from other places, I can’t adequately describe the flavor but it’s unique and so tasty. The comeback sauce is also really good.
Eating this definitely made my day today. I highly, highly recommend eating here! Also I heard the owner is a nice guy so I am happy to support his business.”
“I had a great experience with the General Manager. He was very professional, respectful, and always willing to help. He took the time to listen to my concerns and made sure everything was handled smoothly. His positive attitude and excellent customer service made a big difference. He went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied, and I truly appreciate his kindness and dedication. Thank you for providing such outstanding service.”

“Im originally from NY. Moved to the DMV in 94. Ive been going here for decades. I moved to the west coast in 2011, but come back for work every summer and THE DELI is absolutely one spot I ALWAYS go to to grab a sandwich (and a cannoli). I love that Ive seen the same man always working the counter...Kishore Mehra. Family owned and operated. A true staple of Herndon serving the community for decades! East coast style hoagies...if you want a good spot for a good deli sandwich, THE DELI IS THE PLACE TO GO! You cant go wrong with any sandwich..they ALL are good!!! REMINDS ME OF BACK HOME!
I dont care how many other sandwich spots open around the area. THE DELI IS MY GO TO SPOT HANDS DOWN!
SUPPORT LOCAL SMALL MOM AND POP BUSINESSES!!!”
“Super Pho in Herndon, VA, hands down, has the best PHO in the Northern VA area! The summer rolls w/ peanut sauce are fresh and always hit the spot. The PHO tastes so much better than any PHO I've ever tasted in the NOVA, DC, or MD. The serving sizes never leave you hungry, and the price leaves you happy to be able to come back, again & again. The Thai Tea is worth a try, and the service is always fast and friendly. I highly recommend everyone try it so they can see why we should continue to support businesses like this. I truly can't wait for Super Pho to open back up... I'm going through Super Pho withdrawals! Lol”
“We had the California Cob Sandwich 🥪 . It was delicious 😋. I was surprised to see a basket 🧺 way back in the corner for those less fortunate to take a loaf of bread 🥖 if you yourself are in hard times or even if you know someone, but it was empty . Although I’m not sure exactly how many loaves go into this basket nor when they bread 🍞 gets placed . My guess is at the end of the day or possibly in the morning . It would be nice to know .”
“This place was a vegetarian delight! I had cauliflower tacos with salad a verde and sprouted grain tortillas and it was incredible. I loved the flavor of the cauliflower and chikpea filling plus the spicy salsa verde was killer. I also had the chill juice drink and it was super flavorful and tasty! Definitely git this place up and then grab some great organic snacks at MOMs”
“Food was excellent. Atmosphere was great. Only complaint is that the woman at the front got my order wrong and insisted that she was right. I didn’t want to make a big scene so I just let it slide. Wouldn’t want to come again if I have to deal with a cashier that has a poor attitude.”
“May 15 & 16, 2024 Ashley and I went to Reston Virginia. We walked to Reston Town Center after work and enjoyed the beautiful outdoor weather. Buffet breakfast at the hotel and lunch at Poke It Up. Dani and I met up with my friends, Anthony, Harsh and Traci for Vietnamese food for dinner at Teabreak Pho and Boba then had drinks and dessert at Open Distillery and ended the night at Barcelona Wine Bar 🍷🍻”
“Nice food , Good customer service but ..... Pricy and 20% Dine In service charges (This needs to be put at Display just like 20% discount has been put for catering services at the door) ... it's on menu card though It isn't really a big deal but one must know before walking in what he / she is going to pay I'll still recommend it if one is craving for the taste of street food in Pakistan”
“One of the best breakfast spots I’ve tried in the area.
The place was extremely clean, the service was very fast, and the food quality was honestly outstanding. You can truly taste that they use high-quality and fresh ingredients — nothing felt cheap or processed. Everything was delicious and prepared perfectly.
What impressed me the most is that despite the premium quality, the prices were actually very reasonable. Definitely worth visiting again and highly recommended for breakfast lovers.”
“Bartender was so bubbly and the tater tots so crispy and delicious 🤤🥔”

“This place has it all! Real authentic Chaat food, inviting atmosphere and professionalism by all workers. The owner spends time with his guests and is always going above & beyond to create a remarkable dining experience. I enjoyed the Dahi Bhalla & Gajar Halwa and will definitely be returning until I have enjoyed EVERYTHING on the menu! HIGHLY recommend Chaatwala.”

The food, service, ambience, cleanliness and quality - all are excellent.”

“Excellent food. There was 1.35 pound smoke meat, above pound weight, and we were charged $47.24 extra. The waitress did tell us about this extra meat, but we never thought it would be so much or at least she should have told us that this would be extra dollars. I will not order extra meat next time. It was way too much for me. Besides that, we loved the food. It was delicious. I will definitely go again.”
“Amazing experience here. Staff were friendly, coffee was delicious, and the everything crogel was delicious. I wish there were more food options, but what they have is good. I went for Free RPG day (desperately hope they participate again next year) and had fun playing a one-shot and spending hours in the store.”
“The food here is amazing and doesn’t disappoint I tried the super baleada, it was my first time seeing a baleada like this, it is now my favorite. it’s a must try. Their carne asada is really good as well. I also got an horchata and man that horchata is the best I’ve had around here so good. 100% would recommend this place.”
“I got the Penne Pesto Pasta. It has a parmesan pesto cream sauce with grape tomatoes, peas, asparagus, and artichoke hearts. Add chicken.
The pasta sauce was absolutely delicious but there were so many things going on, it was too much. If it was any one or 2 of those vegetables it would've been fine but every single bite had a new texture, new shapes, and new flavor. Overall the dish was overwhelming but enjoyable nonetheless. I added chicken to the pasta which was also good, though a bit dry. I would come back to the restaurant, I probably would not get the penne pesto pasta again, I would give 3.5 stars if I could.”
“Great lunch buffet with huge variety and delicious tasting food”
