“Food is always hot, fast, and delicious! I always get the Singapore noodles not spicy without shrimp. (I have an allergy) and it is right everytime. They also have amazing miso soup and general Tsos. Pick this one.“

“We had an incredible experience. The ceviche sampler was the star of the night — fresh, bright, and perfectly balanced. The lomo saltado was packed with flavor, tender, and beautifully prepared. And the dessert dome was a full-on show! A special thank you to Patricia, who was attentive, helpful, and genuinely polite throughout the entire visit. She made the experience even better. I’m already looking forward to coming back“

“Everything is excellent and perfect!!!!!!“

“absolutely EXCELLENT staff, great food with unique options and plenty of seating! I had the breakfast lasagna and I enjoyed every bite, wouldn't change a thing.“

“Friendly, good food. Our waitress, Nicole, was outgoing and great!“

“A friend and I meet at Theisman's restaurant for lunch quite often. I live in Alexandria and she lives in Warrenton so it's a great middle point. We both love the food and the hostesses and waitstaff are excellent. The atmosphere is nice.. the reason I gave it 4 stars is that the music in there was so loud. We decided to sit on the porch thinking it would be quieter and it was such a beautiful day... unfortunately the music was extremely loud out there too and seemed to increase in volume as we were out there for about 2 hours. I noticed a few other people were saying that it was so loud too. We should have said something to the hostess but we had not seen each other in awhile. Wonderful place, but people do want to be able to talk and hear each other. Hopefully, this will get to the right ears ?“

“Amazing food, staff and atmosphere!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Love this place! Great Ethiopian food, plus friendly and family-like service. As someone who hadn't eaten Ethiopian food in a while and wasn't sure what to order, the staff was great in asking our preferences and just putting together a platter for us. Everything was fresh, delicious, and flavorful. Their house made pepper sauces that they brought out upon request also put it over the top.“

“Great place. Love the military representation in each franchise.“

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

“Carlos is the very best! He is a great server and took care of us. My daughter's birthday was awesome because of him! Kudos to this location which also takes GREAT care of its Beer Club members! We'll be back soon!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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'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.“

“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 😋😋😋“

“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.“

“Had a great experience at Eggholic in Chantilly! We stopped by during our trip and tried the Dahi Puri and Bhel, and both were really delicious. The flavors were fresh, flavorful, and had just the right balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy. The Dahi Puri was especially enjoyable, and the Bhel was a perfect light snack.

Overall, a great spot for Indian street food. Definitely worth trying if you’re in the Chantilly area!“

“I'm mad at myself for taking so long to finally try this place! gyro is as big as my head and absolutely spectacular flavor, tender lamb, fresh pita, creamy feta and delicious sauce. add to that hot fresh fries with salt AND pepper... I'm a fan for life. Get the Pegasus, if you like spice! Perfect pairing with an off dry rosé, YAMAS!“

“OMG ? Halal Fresh Pizza, Fresh Dough, Fresh Toppings,Pasta, Vegan Items, veggie, Indian Style, Twisty Pockets, Mac n Cheese, Twisty Breadsticks, Salads, Fries, Wings Bone-in & Boneless Different Flavours Dry rub and Lot more“

“Wonderful food, the trout was amazing and so was the shrimp and crab fritter appetizer. Our waiter Matthew was seriously the best and sweetest waiter I’ve ever had in my life. We are here for vacation but we will without a doubt come back here the next time we are in the area.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I really love this place. Their food is so well flavored, and in my personal opinion it tastes like home. I’m Mexican so it reminds me of the food I grew up with. The cashier at the front is super nice and helpful, and the cooking staff is great too.

I really love their Carne Asada plate (number 24). The steak is always done to perfection and seasoned so well, and their rice and beans are delicious. Their homemade tortillas are just as good, with a great consistency that pairs perfectly with any protein.

I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food. Bonus: we randomly tried the french fries and they were really good. They don’t match the picture, they’re actually better! They have a light seasoning that’s super delicious and fresh. So if you’re not craving Mexican and want to try something else, their fries are worth it too.“

“Excellent Sushi, fantastic sashimi!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

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

“Está tan rica la comida en Sazón Latina. he ido dos veces en familia y ordenamos, lomo saltado, tacos, pescado frito, pupusas, pollo con camarones, chicharrón con yuca. La comida save tan rica y fresca. Cada platillo ha sido buenísimo. la atención que te dan también es exelente, te sientes bienvenido. Angie nos atendió hoy y fue tan amigable y profesional con nosotros. The food at Sazón Latina does not disappoint. my family and I have tried several different dishes and each one has been amazing. the food tastes incredible, and the ingredients are fresh and too quality. The service is wonderful, very friendly and welcoming. I'm amazed that the place wasn't packed both times I've been there, but if you're thinking about it, go try it and spread the word on this local business.“

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

“place is beautiful. i will def be back. loved it!!!!! takoyaki and ramen were delish!!!!!“

“Our Monday night dinner group has come back here multiple times. The smell is wonderful immediately when you walk in. The host and all staff there are super friendly and always fun to chat with. Our waiter had our whole table laughing every time we engaged with him. Everyone's orders were perfectly cooked, nice sized portions and came out very quickly. I personally love the Malaysian Iced Coffee, Roti Canai and Chicken Satay. Our group had noodle dishes, beef, lamb, seafood....all was wonderful. The flavors are vivid and bright, delicious and clearly comfort food. I promise you, you'll enjoy your trip here. Great food for everyone. Very nice open atmosphere and every table seemed very content.“

“Yes Yen ta Four noodles is good & rice dish is also good but don’t look for service this restaurant is like self-service order @ the counter pay then wait for your foods then go eat @ the tables“

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

“Came here for dinner with friends and everything from food to service was impeccable! The portion sizes are huge, to the extent I couldn’t finish the sando that I ordered. My friends ate half of their katsu. The breading on the meats were super flaky and seasoned well, not dry or tasteless as seems defacto for many katsu preparations. We also got curry on the side, which was well curated with chunks of meat and veggies. I was honestly so surprised because it tasted like the curry specialty hotspots in the northeast where I moved from. Sam was our waiter and checked in on us multiple times throughout our meal. He was super kind, personable, and just a fun dude that made our dinner experience better. An older gentleman, who I had the impression was the owner or manager, stopped by to check in as well.

Overall, a great place for top tier katsu. The difference in ambience during the day and evening also makes it a great choice for casual dining, date nights, and drinks with friends. Highly recommend!“

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

“1st time, sure won't be the last. That Sam's Burger, omg 1st its huge 2nd it was delicious, well cooked/seasoned, in top if not best one ive had. Tried thier mozzarella sticks, might just be the best sticks i've had. Mom got and loved the cheese stake, only complaint from her was she couldnt finish, it was well packed with steak.“

“I love the tapas. They have great Spanish menus and some vegan choices too! Must try: cauliflower and eggplant, and beets for vegans. Spanish: flan is so good, patatas bravas, salmon with kale, Espanola torta, beef empanada.“

“Just got back from having dinner here. Rebecca H was my server and boy was she amazing! Friendly from the beginning through to the very end. Polite and kind, she was also courteous. I’ll be sure to ask to be seated next time I’m there. Bottom line, come for the food and stay for the service!“

“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.“

“This was our first time here and must say the food is fantastic! We ordered Drunken Noodles Chicken, Fresh Roll w/shrimp, Beef Green Curry. Owner is simply lovely and super helpful. Visit. Eat. Go again! We definitely will. 🤩“
