New American Restaurants near Reston, VA

“Incredible food, outstanding service, and exceptional customer care.

My family and I came here a few months ago to celebrate my husband's birthday. Before our reservation, I reached out through the restaurant's website because I have multiple severe food allergies. To my surprise, the head chef personally called me to discuss the menu. He patiently answered all of my questions, carefully documented my allergies, and assured me he could prepare my meal safely since everything is made from scratch.

He never once made me feel like I was inconveniencing the staff. That meant so much to me because dining out with severe food allergies is often stressful, and it's easy to feel like a burden. His kindness and willingness to accommodate me made all the difference.

The Simon prepared my meal safely, and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone else in our group thoroughly enjoyed their meals as well. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with live jazz music that made the evening even more special.

We had a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I would absolutely come back. Thank you for making my husband's birthday such a memorable night!“

“So happy to have Red’s within walking distance of my house. We recently took a group of friends there and were lucky to get the private room. Great food and service! Tried their oysters for the first time and they were really good.“

“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.“

“Best cappuccino around! Perfect for business meetings“

“Double cabernet burger is the best!!!! Cabernet smothered patties, white cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, worcestershire mayo, tomato, potato bun with crispy fingerling potatos on the side. #foodbuster #burgerkingthings #doyoubelieve I DO!!!!!“

“I recommend this place for it's food choices, alternative non-alcohol yummy adult type drinks, awesome chefs and food service staff (everyone here was super nice and totally hospitable, especially Chris at the bar where I sat to eat), and last bit not least -the cleanliness and open design hides nothing. You can see the kitchen prep and the ambiance is lovely... bright and clean with clean HVAC! I love this place. My dinner was delicious and the black tea had lavender... delightful!“

“Jessica was absolutely amazing! From the moment we sat down, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive. She made us feel genuinely welcome and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Even in the busy airport environment, she remained professional, efficient, and always had a smile on her face. Her outstanding service made our dining experience so much more enjoyable. Thank you, Jessica, for your kindness and exceptional hospitality—you truly made our day. Highly recommend!“

“This is for the Silver Diner in Chantilly,VA. We live a little over 2 hours away but stopped here for dinner after car shopping and we were not disappointed! My husband and son both had milkshakes and burgers and I got the meatloaf. Classic diner menu but really elevated and creative. Everything was delicious, loved the decor, service was friendly and bathrooms were clean.“

“Was super bz on a Sunday and service was okay but our waitress wasn’t all that great.“

“We visit SD Ashburn often! The staff is the real jewel of this store!! From Badr, to Garret, Minh, Isaac, Dani, Andrew, Nisha, Lauren, Lily, and many others. Plus the amazing Bussers, and hosts, make a very friendly presence and enjoyable meals. It’s a tribute to the managers, and training. Thank you for all the memories we have had and will continue to have, in this store❤“

“ONE Bar&Grill is our number one restaurant choice in Old Town Fairfax. We have visited several times and EVERY meal has been amazing! Mina the owner, and Stephanie along with all the servers are first class people. Fairfax is fortunate to have such a top notch restaurant! We look forward to many future visits.“

“Best classic American breakfast I've had in Northern Virginian. Comes as close to what I grew up with in the Tidewater area as I have had here in NOVA. Eggs were cooked and SEASONED nicely, bacon was CRISP, potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and they were nice chunks. Ketchup had a flavor twist that was delicious. Coffee had a good flavor and the cup was huge. Prices were very competitive.“

“Excellent food and wine!! Highly recommend Monday mussel nights (3 different flavors!) - our favorite was the blue cheese one. While we had no reservation, we were accommodated on the patio and received wonderful service. The French wine was perfect for a hot summer night. We’ll definitely be back! The pommes frites with basil aioli was perfect as an appetizer. The duck special was my personal favorite.“

“I’ve been to yard house so many times and each time I like it more. Last time I went they were playing Argentina vs Cabo verde in the World Cup so the place was a bit Busy as everyone wanted to watch the game. I normally get dragonfruit lemonade which is really good. The service was a fine since the place was really busy and there was a 45 minute wait for a table so I just waited at the bar. The atmosphere is really loud and hard to talk over it but it was understandable. The one thing js that it’s kind of pricey for some slightly upscale bar food. The steak was good though.“

“Booked the private dining area for a post-wedding celebration. The experience far exceeded expectations. Impeccable service. Wonderful ambiance. Heavenly food. Great food and beverage pairings. Highly recommended for a perfect evening.“

“My first time here. The atmosphere was great, parking was readily available on the street and lot, and the staff was very attentive.“

“Got it. No dashes, no breaks, just smooth:

I had a great time at the Ashburn Pub. Our bartender was amazing, very friendly and attentive, and made the whole visit really enjoyable. Great service and I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“We got take out for the first time from here! The roast beef with horseradish on a cheddar cheese roll is PHENOMENAL! The roast beef is fork tender!! Highly recommend 👌“

“Comfortable, friendly, good choices, efficient service, tasty food. Nice plating.“

“Feel good and safe with healthy food and good atmosphere . love it“

“Great place! We had a large birthday party for my husband this past weekend. The food, wine, and set up indoors and outdoors made it such a special celebration. Many people said it was the best food that they have had at a party. It was amazing!“

“First visit today for my birthday lunch and loved the vibe and the food!“

“Food is good and menu has something for everyone. The best part is the staff. Anna is an awesome server. She has taken care of our family a few times and she always remembers us and our preferences. She is great with kids. The last time my daughter and I were there she had another table with a couple that had a baby. She took care of them seamlessly while juggling everyone else.“

“Food was awesome! Atmosphere was warm! Wait staff extremely attentive. We LOVE that it is farm to table, they have their own bee hives and grow their own herbs! Menu was unique and the octopus appetizer was SO crazy good!“

“I’m only in town for a week, but have already been here twice since it’s short trip from where I’m staying and I enjoy a good brew pub. Ate at the bar both times. Food and service were 💯both times. I had the bacon wrapped meatloaf and the supreme pizza. Meatloaf was great, pizza’s ok. I tried both their hazy beers and the Freedom and Founders IPAs, all good choices. I’m planning on bringing my husband for my 3rd visit before heading home. Looking forward to having the Stroganoff pasta on my next visit. Would highly recommend for food and craft beer selections.“

“The Lost Fox is one of exceptional restaurants we will continue to frequent on trips to Northern VA. The food is always excellent- fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented. Every selection we have ordered has been prepared to perfection. The restaurant team as a whole are friendly, welcoming and prompt making every guest feel valued. The Lost Fox is a Restaurant that consistently delivers the best to all guest... so we would always HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - I have always had great experiences at Bear Branch Tavern, but today I had Ash and Maria as my server and bartender. They were fantastic. I could not recommend them enough. Every time I go back I am going to try and get Ash as my server. 10/10 experience, 10/10 food. Will definitely be back.“

“I’m in love with the Ellote street corn they have it down“

“I watched the FIFA World Cup quarter final match between France and Morocco at the restaurant with my preteen sons. Amazing sports vibe, I was surrounded by over 9 TV screens! The food is great, my Peruvian Chicken was perfectly cooked. Chelsea, our waitress, made our dining extra special 😊“

“Best beers I've had in a long time! So many great and creative options of beers! Every one I sampled was OUTSTANDING! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Hats off to the brewer and the staff are SOOO friendly, professional and helpful! Great atmosphere and the outdoor patio is an added bonus on beautiful days!“

“The food appears... lesser quantity than in DC. The biscuits were smaller, and harder. I saw no bacon. The sausage (pork or chicken) was not "week done" as with the DC restaurant. Also there wasn't any shrimp. I got there at 9:am, and was told reservations were needed. So I Sat at the bar. Def a 3.5 rating on food here“

“Reasonably priced drinks and karaoke was fun!“

“We stay at this Ritz-Carlton location from time to time, and Entyse is a focal point of those visits. It’s an all-day operation, and indeed the only dining option on-property. The bartenders and wait staff are highly attentive, personable, and quick to remember your preferences. There’s usually a decent crowd, and on weekends there’s live music ranging from jazz piano to a classic hits band.

While it is definitely a lounge first and a restaurant second, there is a decently extensive menu for each breakfast, lunch and dinner with a number of tempting options. There’s also a bar menu that’s served all day and until midnight daily, which is a godsend for the weary traveler arriving late in the evening.

So many places close early in this post-Covid era that it’s great to see a proper hotel bar open late nightly.

Oh, and if you’re a wine person like I am, you’ll certainly enjoy the 25+ options offered by the glass. Although we are guests of the hotel, it’s easy to see why so many locals frequent this lounge too.“

“great food, great prices and great service! food is always fresh, they offer lots of free samples and offerings like their miso soup, and the workers are always very kind and friendly. also a nice bodega-like atmosphere to take a break in the day and grab a snack. come here next lunch break!!!“

“Marco was the sweetest! he genuinely cares for customers and their experience as he goes out of his way to provide excellent service. He really made the place for me, ambiance is lovely, we tried his recommendations and got to take some cute pictures aswell.“
