    This was my first visit, but most certainly won't be my last. I had the burger and it was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The sautéed spinach was delicious. I'm looking forward to trying other items on the menu.

    This used to be one of our favorite restaurants when they had one in Lansdowne … now we schlep to Reston maybe once every 2 months. We practically had the whole place to ourselves 6pm on a Monday … which is a little concerning. No one likes to see that. The food was very good - we had the $50 for 2 special - and the service from Evan was excellent. We did find the food a little over salted, and when we asked for the bread to be warmed up it came back to us hard as a rock (that was new). Almost all of the prices are much higher than we remembered. And the really bad news - We drank Arnold Palmers, which at $5.95 made us feel like we won’t be back for a while (iced tea is only $3.95)
