Restaurants in Herndon

“Great lunch buffet with huge variety and delicious tasting food”

“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.”

“recently i attended a wedding that was catered by Anatolian bistro. the food was wonderful! very traditional Turkish options. highly recommend for dining or catering. thank you - dj Theo”

“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 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. 👍🏻”

“This is my go-to Ethiopian restaurant! The staff are always very friendly and attentive, the food is extremely fresh and flavorful, and the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend the spicy lentils.”

“The coffee was incredible. My friends and I loved the relaxed atmosphere. Next time we will also try the food.”

“Great experience! loved my Bulgogi lunch box special ✨️🙌 staff is very warm and kind! what a pleasant experience!”

“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.”

“Had good experience at the restaurant. Food at tri-state was delicious and flavorful. Special thanks to Stalin for his suggestions on which dishes to try. Enjoyed the food!!!”

“Exelent food and service I'll give them 5 stars I strong recommend”

“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!”

“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!!!”

“Bartender was so bubbly and the tater tots so crispy and delicious 🤤🥔”

“We visit Bola Bola for my birthday as I wanted to explore a new cuisine. The reviews spoke highly of the food and service, which I’m happy to confirm was amazing. We had the meat communal platter and 6 veggies. Since it was my first time I wanted to try a lot of items so next time I will confident in what to order. This is was a great experience for my first time eating Ethiopian food!”

“Beautiful place, inviting and warm, felt like dining in a Paris restaurant. Highly recommend!”

“We were a large group so we shared each other’s entree. The papaya salad and mango sticky rice were outstanding. The salad was fresh and had the perfect amount of heat. The sticky rice featured juicy sweet sliced mango and the rice delicious and not overly sweet.

Expected better larb. Wasn’t bad just ok. The pad Thai was also ok. Again not bad, have had better. Going to a new Thai restaurant I use Pad Thai as one of my baseline dishes. A Thai restaurant that can’t absolutely plate killer Pad Thai can’t earn five stars.

I really enjoyed the pork Masaman curry. It was flavorful and everyone remarked about it. The crispy chicken was also delicious.

We also shared beef curry that was generally liked. Pineapple rice with shrimp was ok, nothing special.

Plan to come back and try something else. Was expecting something more.”

“Excellent food, service and family!💙”

“Great food and beer, but the coffee shop that is supposed to open 8am doesn’t open sometimes despite the webpage and doors saying 8am”

“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.”

“Tried their new Pesto Chicken Philly and Cheese and thought it was great! Appreciated the fresh take on a traditional sandwich. Fries were extra crispy! Staff were friendly and my order was ready when I arrived to pick it up, which was even faster than what they told me.”

“Our experience was remarkable! Friendly customer service and delicious food! The Bombay garlic pizza was especially very tasty. Can’t wait to go again and try more options! It’s definitely a twist on your classics!”

“Outstanding food and service…have gotten home deliveries from Hunan Cafe in Herndon for several years now. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!”

“High quality, tasty , fresh, and hot. Kids like it more.”

“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.”

“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!!”

“The food was great! Second time dining here and it definitely won’t be my last! 👌”

“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.”

“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.”

“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 .”

“Simplemente delicioso!!!!!!”

“TGI Fridays has an event ladies night every Thursdays.. happy hour 3 to 9pm”

I just wish I had some of the green sauce ( I didn’t know it wasn’t in my bag I do recommend them for sure!”

“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!”

“Great food. Great service & atmosphere. Lumpia was excellent. Great to have this restaurant in our community.”

“Good is always good and great service”

“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”

“Our first visit to this great place was just yesterday August 14th and it was by chance only. We are happy that we decided to eat there. Food was great so was service by John who was just very pleasant and ready to serve you. He recommended a lemonade drink that is their house special and we loved it. We ordered mutton briyani to go and this was the best briyani we have tasted so far. We’ll be going again for sure. Amita&Aman”

“The Deli is a local gem. They have the best subs and the Veggie Elite lives up to its name (pro tip is to ask for extra hot peppers). Their Italian subs are excellent too!”

“The best bun around! I get the shrimp and it’s delicious! Their vegetable summer rolls have the tastiest tofu. Crave worthy. If you have to eat gluten free, like I do, I haven’t had any issues with their food.”

“Friendly and knowledgeable staff! Great drip coffee, and a great atmosphere!”

“Nice menu for “fast casual” with some flair. The fresh ginger and red chili oil are nice condiments for the noodles. Loved Thai iced tea. So much more I’d like to try.”

“Best Italian around with the friendliest staff who are always right there to greet you and make you feel so welcome!”

“Family atmosphere and great food”

“Waiting for the bus to Udvar Hazy Museum. Great place to chill and excellent Avocado Toast and Fruit bowl. Good coffee too. Would recommend if waiting for the one bus an hour to museum.”

“Who is that guy in the smoking truck in the Reston Park and Ride lot? It's Uncle Fred. I drove by him way too many times before I stopped in and now I can't stay away. I forgive myself for not getting on board sooner. Give Uncle Fred a try. I know you'll be a fan like me.”

​If you are looking for delicious food paired with world-class hospitality, this is the place to be. We will definitely be coming back soon!”

“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”

“Great BBQ that doesn’t taste like chain BBQ.”

“Went there today with my daughter. Ordered Butter Chicken. Well it did not look like Butter Chicken, nor did it taste like Butter Chicken. Tasted and smelled like pieces of chicken dropped in the Chhole curry. 🤔”

“Our dining experience was exceptional from start to finish! The food was completely on point—the mixed meat dish (chicken, kebab, and beef with rice) was extremely tasty, and the appetizer of fries topped with smoked brisket and cheese was hearty and delicious. The cheese burek tasted just like home! A special shout-out to our servers, Majd and Ameer, who were incredibly attentive and made the entire experience out of this world. Highly recommended!”

“Smash burger and fries were amazing! Would definitely eat here again when in town.”

“Ordered takeout for the first time here and was pleasantly surprised at how fantastic everything was. We are a family of 7 and got a variety of items so I was able to sample 6 different salads. The taste as described on the menu was spot on, they gave the option to label each persons food and when ordering for my family I REALLY appreciate this. We will definitely get food from here again and my only regret is that I didn’t find it sooner.”

“The sweet young lady in the front in the morning with the brown hair ponytail was very helpful and patient! I don't know her name but she made me the best American burger I've ever tasted. She even mentioned she made it with absolute love. Will most definitely be coming back! The Herndon buffalo wings locations really be having the best Staff, I've noticed. Big shout out to Joran as well who is always quick with my order and always taste delicious.”

“Neha was the best waitress, very fast and provided very good service. Food was amazing 👏 and delicious. Was hoping briyani being served in clay pot but was not. Bartender needs to improve in making drinks as they were not good, didn't help staff.”

My go to picks are Nalli Gosh Biryani and Raju Gari Biryani

I recommend this for Good portion, taste and price too”
