“This place is a lovely Alsatian French restaurant in some beautiful area that is gorgeous to drive to and eat in… it is like a pilgrimage.

The amuse bouche was a lentil mushroom soup which was enjoyable.

The wagyu beef cheeks are a reason to live.

The garlic bread is a reason to live

The lobster bisque is like homestyle as was the bouillabaisse. The tarte au chocolate was excellent but not my favorite.

Excellent for a day trip and a date you want to impress and a good value for the pre-fixe.

I will try to be better w pics!x“

Definitely git this place up and then grab some great organic snacks at MOMs“

“Hello everyone! My name is Syed Anwar Hussain, and I'm sharing my experience at the best restaurant in the DC area. Today I went to the Bangladesh Embassy, and after I finished my embassy work, I started searching for a good restaurant in that area. Luckily, GPS found the restaurant. We went with my wife and my son, and we ordered three dishes. First, we ordered two dishes. We tasted the first two dishes; they were very delicious. Then we ordered another one. All three dishes were delicious. I really enjoy the delicious food. I have no words to describe how delicious the food is. I highly recommend this place.“

“Delicious food! We got two different wraps with the mixed meat. Full of flavor. And OMG the fries were perfect! We both tried the strawberry basil cocktail. Great balance of sweetness and very refreshing. The service was great and we enjoyed talking to the employees. Great atmosphere. We sat on the patio. And the decor is fun with the records and Virginia artists and famous people all around.“

“Our Mom Eugenia has been a mainstay for our family for birthdays, anniversaries, family gatherings, and every possible food-related occasion since their opening. We are always greeted with a smile and treated to wonderful service and an exceptional meal every time we come in. They are a treasure to the community and we’re thrilled to have them so close to home.“

“The dinner and service was excellent. It was loud in the restaurant. I thought we were receiving the more formal part of the restaurant which is what I thought I reserved. Our waiter was EXCELLENT. He was prompt and very personable. We enjoyed speaking to him. I would definitely return without hesitation. Thank you. Fred C.“

“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.“

“Cafe Renaissance has been our important event restaurant for the past 15 years. It has never failed to give us a very rewarding experience from its excellent food and the classy ambiance. Highly recommended!“

“The sandwich I had was delicious! I love that they have so many vegetarian options and everything was incredibly flavorful. The owner was very friendly and helpful with any questions about the items on the menu. It’s a great take on Indian food and I can’t wait to go again to try a different item.“

“We have been eating here almost weekly for a year and it's always fantastic. Drunken Noodles, green curry, pineapple curry, crispy duck, you name it - all delicious!“

“Monday $1 oysters on half shell; usually 3-4 east coast varieties. Both the fish and chips, and the shrimp tacos are my lunch go to options.“

“Great meal at The Conche. We did the three course wine pairing and it was excellent. Salvador, our waiter was very knowledgeable and welcoming. Nice atmosphere and good vibe.“

““Scaloppine di Vitello Porcini” — top notch. Friendly staff, good food, even the pre-dinner bread was warm, soft and delicious!“

“This is the best Ethiopian food (and some of the best food) I've ever had. It's fresh and flavorful, and all of the meat dishes we had were so tender. We tried several veggie and meat options and they were all outstanding. My husband and I love Ethiopian food, so we took our family members who were visiting from out of town and they said it was the highlight of their entire 3 week trip. Service was friendly and very helpful (we ended up just asking them bring whatever they wanted to serve us based on our allergies and aversions). The options were very authentic - from the apps, to the Ethiopian beer, honey wine, and coffee (which they even served it with rue). They also gave us a spicy pepper sauce (upon request for the hottest thing they had), and that was incredible. It is made in house (it's not berbere, mitmita, or awaze. I think it started with a "D", at least the English pronunciation). I would buy it by the jar if available! There was plenty of parking, and we went between a trip to the Udva-Hazy Air & Space and Great Falls. It was the perfect day.“

“We enjoyed brunch here for our anniversary. I have several food allergies and I was well accommodated. The food was wonderful and the service friendly. We will be back“

“The Thai food we ordered was fresh and delicious. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, our food arrived without delay, hot and scrumptious! Great atmosphere, very relaxing and cozy. Highly recommend.“

“My guests loved the chicken 65! Great customer service!“

Our server, Ghander, was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, making excellent recommendations. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, making for a wonderful evening out. We will definitely be back soon!“

“This lakeside spot in Reston is everything you want in a local favorite, stunning views, warm ambiance, and a team that genuinely cares. The staff goes out of their way to make families and kids feel welcome, which is rare and deeply appreciated. The food? Always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you're catching up with friends or having a low-key meal with little ones, Red’s Table makes it feel easy and elevated. Consistently excellent.“

“Jackson’s Mighty Fine Food & Lucky Lounge (BCI: 86) 11927 Democracy Dr, Reston, VA Step into Jackson’s and you’re stepping into a space that bridges eras - a Reston mainstay that blends classic Americana with a contemporary culinary pulse. The curved brick façade, glowing neon, terrazzo floors, and murals set a retro-modern stage that feels both familiar and fresh. The menu is as versatile as the atmosphere. The Blue Crab & Shrimp Fritters arrive golden and crisp, with a lobster-ginger sauce that balances sweet and tang. Deviled Eggs topped with pecans and sugar-cured bacon hit nostalgic notes with a twist. For mains, the Short Smoked Salmon Filet was balanced and flavorful, while the 5 Star Reserve Rib Eye stands out as the indulgent showpiece - perfectly grilled and paired with Brussels sprouts, bacon, and spiced pecans. Gluten-sensitive diners aren’t sidelined here, with Ozzie’s Brick Chicken and even flourless desserts on a dedicated menu. Save room for dessert: the Flourless Chocolate Waffle with Ice Cream was rich yet not overwhelming, and the Lemon Marshmallow Meringue Pie playful and bright. Cocktails, like the Jackson’s Mule, are well-crafted and fairly priced. Service was attentive and well-paced even in a bustling room, though weekends bring a lively (and loud) crowd. Reservations are smart for dinner; weekday lunches are easier. My only miss: the French Dip. Beautifully presented but mine arrived closer to raw than medium rare, with a lukewarm au jus. For $30, I expected more precision. That said, many online reviewers rave about it. So consider it a hit-or-miss item depending on your taste for ultra-rare beef. Whether it’s a business lunch, a date night, or a family dinner, Jackson’s delivers. A broad menu, strong service, and lively atmosphere keep it at the center of Reston dining. BCI: 86 reflects weighted and normalized ratings across multiple platforms, showing that Jackson’s consistently delivers strong experiences. The Brodbeck Confidence Index (BCI) is a proprietary algorithm that blends multi-platform ratings into a single, normalized score to give diners a clearer picture of overall consensus.“

“We enjoyed our meal at Gregorio’s immensely. The meals were tasty and good portions. The cocktails were strong and right at the limit of reasonably priced. The tiramisu was also on point.“

“Great food. Great people. Close to home. Let’s go!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great food and atmosphere. Very clean. Service was fast and friendly. Their PHO noodles are served perfectly, not too soft or mushy.. They were also happy to accommodate my daughter's food allergies so she could enjoy a meal with us. Great place.“

“The best Mediterranean food I’ve ever eaten in my life!! The portions are so big and everything is homemade!“

“I've been going to the Silver Diner in Reston for over 15 years. Food is always good, new items added to menu seasonally, staff are real folks who are easy to talk with and joke with as well. You get a sense of "family" when you are there as staff and customers interact. Servers are fun people and make your day. Today was Rubia's day and she is special. Come out and see for yourself.“

“I had an amazing experience at Silver Diner thanks to our waiter, Badr. From the moment we sat down, he was quick, attentive, and genuinely on top of everything. He checked in at all the right times without ever feeling intrusive, and made sure we had everything we needed.

What really stood out was his personality — friendly, upbeat, and funny. He added little jokes and light conversation that made the meal feel even more enjoyable. You can tell he really enjoys his job and cares about giving great service.

Overall, Badr made our visit memorable. Silver Diner is lucky to have him. Highly recommend asking for Badr if you want top-tier service!“

“Excellent Sushi, fantastic sashimi!“

“Excellent bbq and sandwiches everything is excellent always will come back here“

“LongHorn Steakhouse in Chantilly never disappoints! The steaks are always seasoned just right and cooked perfectly every time. The chicken wings with their signature seasoning are incredible, and the grilled shrimp and lobster tail are always spot on—tender, flavorful, and delicious. We’ve also tried the burger and the pork chop on past visits and both were excellent.

The restaurant is consistently clean and well-maintained, which adds to the great experience.

Service is another highlight. Sam, the bartender, is fantastic—she takes such great care of guests and even when it’s busy, she makes sure you never feel overlooked. She’s a real gem.

I’ve also noticed the managing partner on several occasions stepping in to help his staff, which says a lot about the culture here.

If you haven’t visited yet, it’s definitely worth a stop—you won’t be disappointed!“

“I stopped by Taste of Istanbul this afternoon for the first time. For the most part it was really good. I ordered a potato pide, 2 doner kebab, mixed meze, and pistachio baklava. Everything was delicious except for the”baklava”, which turned out to be two greasy dough cylinders. No phyllo, no honey, no pistachio filling. I was disappointed that I wasted $7.00 for inedible dough I ended up throwing in the garbage. Get the kebabs, stay away from their version of baklava.“

“Carlos, our waiter is awesome!!!!“

“I have lived in Chantilly for 30 years and you CANNOT find a rack of ribs better than Backyard Grill! The potato skins and beignets are wonderful as well!“

“Their chicken chilly momos are the best!! The vhatmas sadeko makes for a pleasant bit of accompanying crunch and spice. Get some Krispy Krunchy chicken to go, too, while you're at it 😋😋😋“

“Amazing Sushi and Sashimi - Definitely a Must to Sooo... Fresh and Delicious. We will definitely be Back for more...“

“Outstanding sushi, salad, soup and tempura. Great and attentive service. Akira Sushi hits the ball out of the park.“
