    We had a wonderful experience last night at Founding Farmers at Reston Station. We were greeted warmly when we arrived for our dinner reservation and were seated promptly. The dining room was eclectic, beautiful and comfortable, and the servers were attentive and friendly. Food was delicious. I ordered the Classic Chicken Milanese. The cucumber lemon vinaigrette gave the chicken cutlets amazing flavor. The arugula salad was a perfect accompaniment. I would absolutely recommend it. My wife ordered the Hot Honey Fried Chicken, and she said she enjoyed her meal as well. (The grits were not quite warm enough, though.) This is the second time we've been to Founding Farmers, we we enjoyed it both times. Will definitely be back. P.S. They validate for parking, too.

    Hubby and I dined here for breakfast and our experience was pleasant. The food was delicious. Our palettes were pleased by the scrambled eggs and French toast. My fruit bowl was fresh and sweet. Our server accommodated us very well as we came after breakfast serving time. They were gracious and still prepared this lovely meal. The atmosphere was quiet as we we were the only ones there at the time.

    Had a great time having beers and apps here. There is a really good tap list. We had fried green tomatoes, wings and hummus. The hummus was the standout. Have to give a shout out to Gomez our waiter. He was phenomenal.

    Founding farmers has a good brunch buffet option with a good variety of breakfast and non-breakfast options. Their French toast cubes are stand out with the banana foster! Make sure to set aside space on your plate for some! The spicy fried chicken is nice and crispy, I also recommend the sliced beef, and there is a good spread of "appetizers" including tuna wonton cups and (surprisingly) good guacamole. Make sure to save some room for dessert too because the key lime pie cubes and snickerdoodle cookies were really good!

    Shoutout to Gomez for their amazing service today!! Even on thanksgiving, they were smiling and super kind. Attentive service and quick to get out the separate courses for thanksgiving! Last year was a little slow but it looks like they made some changes. Food was delicious and I loved that we could still order a coffee and a cocktail off the regular menu. I got the turkey, while hubby got the fried chicken as our main courses. I was super full and they kindly got me boxes. I had the refreshing apple cider sorbet & hubby got apple pie. This is our go to thanksgiving spot now! Beautiful ambiance and setting as well. I love all the things you can look at while you're eating.

    My favorite crab cakes!

    Great service and amazing foods. It's always a pleasure to dine in here. Special thanks to Michael.

    Such BEAUTIFUL interior design!!! The ambiance is unmatched. It feels like home or camp. The server was wonderful. The ceviche isn't great to ceviche lovers, but it's tasty for beginner palate. The cornbread wasn't my type; it has a lot of corn kernels and it's moist more than I prefer for cornbread but it tastes good. The chicken dish here was BOMB! So delicious with the honey thyme sauce. The meat platter was apparently NOT FLAVORFUL so a big disappointment. Overall, love the concept of the restaurant and its fresh farm ingredients. In the Google plaza...inspirational. Free parking garage. Go, enjoy!

    Ahi tuna bites, yummmm...

    Came here for a late lunch today. The restaurant is spacious and beautiful, with an industrial-chic aesthetic. Margarita 2019 - though mostly ice, it was tart and refreshing. Coconut Old Fashioned - boozy but offered no complexity. Ahi Tuna bites - flavorful and delicious. Devilish eggs - I don't know who came up with this recipe but they should walk the plank. No. Absolutely not. The yolk portion seemed to consist of chopped up egg whites and mustard. Crab Cobb - now This was a tasty dish. My bartender, Aidan, couldn't have been better.

    I liked the place a lot. We had a brunch at 11:00 am, 4 people. The food was great, I got just a regular coffee and Apple Pie (goes with the scoop of ice cream). I also like their rustic vibe. Great place for a business lunch and dinner.

    So all I wanted for Father's Day was a good, loaded, succulent dish of hot bread pudding. The best I've had is in the heart of DC, which I was not making the 100 minute drive for (I really would have but my kids wouldn't enjoy the car ride). All the places around us serve cold bread pudding. And for some reason, almost every restaurant in northern VA serves the same, or similar, white chocolate bread pudding. I wanted something big, buttery, and hot. Luckily, Founding Farmers offered something remotely different than what other restaurants did. Luckily, they have four seats at the bar my family could sit at (instead of waiting 90 mins). I enjoy Founding Farmers and their food is good. But I just wanted bread pudding. And theirs hit the spot. It was a decent portion too. Couldn't have used a scoop of ice cream a la mode? Of course but did I need it? No. Their croissant donuts were well balanced too. What shocked me the most was that my family and I were able to sit at the bar. The kids thought they were treated special and considered this experience as something as if they were eating at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. We won't eat here often (it's a 60 mins drive for us). But if we are in the area, and have the money, this would be a place we'd love to explore some more. But I encourage to call ahead to make reservations.

    How are they with allergies? Is cross contamination an issue, or do they prepare properly so there's no issues for their customers?

    I dined with someone who required a gluten free diet -- and our server was HIGHLY familiar with what on the menu was appropriate for her.

    Do you offer a discount for military or veterans?

    Hi Angela! Thank you for reaching out! We absolutely do offer a discount on Veteran's Day (for example, this year we offered 50% off all food). -Amy

    What time do you switch from lunch service to dinner service? I know the menu is the same for the two, bus asking specifically in reference to the restaurant week menu (different prices).

    Hi Alexa! We switch to the Restaurant Week Dinner Menu at 4pm. Thank you!

The open kitchen adds a fun buzz, and the staff couldn't be nicer--they really make you feel taken care of without it ever feeling over the top. And the food... wow. The charcuterie board has this melt-in-your-mouth pâté and amazing cheeses. The prawns are so good you'll catch yourself reaching for "just one more" every time. The tuna tartare is unbelievably fresh--one bite and you're hooked. The burrata with heirloom tomatoes is bright and flavorful, and the duck special? Let's just say you won't want it to end. Then dessert shows up--a cherry blossom cake that's light, beautiful, and just screams spring. Everything comes out on gorgeous Pordamsa plates, and honestly, each dish looks like it belongs in a photo gallery. No matter what you order, you really can't go wrong. Your taste buds will thank you. And bonus--it's just a short Metro ride from DC, so getting there is easy. I've also heard the hotel has great packages, and if you stay for breakfast, the deliciousness keeps going! Go. You'll be glad you did

If you're hesitant about it being gamey, don't be! It had a perfect balance of sweetness from the caramelized onions and a distinct, smoky flavor from being torched. For the main, I had the Pan Seared Wild Petrale Sole, which was beautifully cooked and fresh. My friend loved the chicken, and we ended the night sharing a delicious dessert. Bonus: Parking was a breeze--we found a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant. We will definitely be back!

    I'll admit, this review is a little biased as my husband and I were frequent diners at Clarity when…read moreit was owned by Chef Jon Krinn as that is where we first encountered Chef Nick and Sam and have been following/supporting them ever since the Clarity transition. We definitely went to the Dabney quite a bit when Sam was working there. But, as for Evelyn Rose - we couldn't be more thrilled. When the Bazins announced that they were selling their restaurant, I honesty couldn't think of better new owners, and they have just nailed it. Food: The food is excellent. Always well-seasoned with lots of choices for all different appetites and preferences. A few specific touches that I personally love - half portions of pasta, options on an a la carte menu as well as a tasting menu (every evening!) and the ability to often order courses a la carte off the tasting menu. Flexibility is the name of their game, and it is truly appreciated. Chef Nick really has a way with fish, and that's frequently what I order there, but honestly, I think only one time did I have a dish that I felt was sub-par (I had a meat dish that was slightly overcooked and a tad dry) but that's a few and far between occurrence. Last night I had the rockfish dish which was perfectly crisped, and the sauce and beans that accompanied it were just perfect. My husband had the gnocchi which was light and fluffy. Service: Sam, the co-owner and Sommelier, is really just amazing at hospitality. He is friendly, warm, and always looking to ensure you are having a great experience. He's put together a small, but well-curated wine list - nothing overly expensive, and wines that you'd 'expect' to see as well as hidden gems. He's always willing to offer advice on wine pairings - not just for the tasting menu but the a la carte menu, which is always appreciated by my husband and I. Aside from Sam, generally, the service is attentive most times we have dined there - most of the time, if the service is lagging a bit, it's usually because they are packed! Vibe: Evelyn Rose has a cozy, warm vibe. Lots of exposed wood and blue and gold tones throughout the restaurant. Do note that it can get loud, especially on weekends when they are packed. Other: We are very blessed to have such an excellent restaurant down the street. Don't take my word for it - we were at Albi just a few nights ago and when we mentioned to the bartender we live in Vienna, they said "oh, have you been to Evelyn Rose?" (seriously!) Coming from a bartender at a one-star Michelin restaurant...I'd say that's quite the compliment. Looking forward to many more dinners at Evelyn Rose!

Their wine list is large, with so much to choose from, whether Italian or New World - They have a nice selection of bottles! They even have their own label (not sure who makes it) which I tried and it was decent, but we opted for something else. It was tough to select a salad, an appetizer, and an entrée, as we wanted to be able to eat everything and there was so much to choose from which looked so very appealing on the menu. I started with their arugula salad and it was excellent! Such a simplistic salad like this has to be made with fresh greens and this definitely met that mark! I did ask for a side of balsamic to drizzle a tiny bit in - but it really didn't need it. Dinner consisted of their braised short rib - AMAZING! So very tender and flavorful... YUMMM!!!! A nice balance of flavors, sweet and savory in this dish. Their pasta menu looked so very nice that I wanted a pasta too, so prior to the mains, I split their smoked chicken pasta with a colleague and that dish was crazy - so smokey and flavorful! The pasta was spot-on al dente too! Definitely a rich dish, creamy, flavorful, and very powerful - but tasty! We were all too full for dessert, so a couple of us just chose some Sambuca to sip as we ended the dinner and that was great, served perfectly chilled with the coffee beans.

However, we were disappointed by the strict policy regarding outside wine. We were prepared to pay a corkage fee so we could enjoy a bottle we had brought for the occasion, but the manager explained that it was a firm policy set by the owner and could not be overridden. While we understand the need for policies, a bit more flexibility for special occasions would have gone a long way. Overall, the experience and food were very good, but policies like this can impact repeat business. Parking nearby is somewhat of a walk. Alternatively, valet parking is available at the nearby JW Marriott, which may be more convenient. I think the restaurant may have its own valet parking although I did not see it being offered the day we came.

I opted for a plate that was heavy in vermicelli noodles, and upon ordering the server who took my order highly suggested that I order the woven vermicelli meal that came with lemon grass beef. I am so happy I listened to him because the dish was overflowing with delicious flavor and before I knew it, my plate was completely empty. Service was very kind, prompts and knew all the right suggestions to offer for a high quality experience. Plenty of delicious options for appetizers from classic favorites like fried spring rolls and rice paper summer rolls to savory entrées like short rib, hot pot Vietnamese noodle soups and fried rices. I can see why this place has quickly become a local favorite and why the ratings are all very positive! Lived up to the hype for sure! Thank you so much for an awesome dinner this evening!

They have daily happy hour from 4-6 pm, which is pretty awesome, starting early and ending late. There is also a power hour from 3-6, where everything on the happy hour menu is $5, which is a little early!! The menu includes regular bar food and a variety of drinks (as shown in the picture). We ordered the following: -Let that "man"go - in general it's an iced drink, so I'd avoid. -Spicy pina marg - another iced drink. It was ok. -I'm Ron Burgundy (2x)- this had a nice strong coffee flavor, doesn't come with ice; I would highly recommend it...they made it so good!!! -Maker's mini nachos - There proportion of chips to toppings was off there wasn't enough toppings and too many chips, but there was a lot of cheese. -Calamari was a good portion, and tasty -Chicken tenders - they were delicious and moist There are so many items to choose from on the power hour/happy hour menu. I would definitely recommend lil B and the wings. There was live music, which was just way too loud for such a small space. We would have been okay with all the music. There is plenty of parking available in nearby garages, I believe free after 5pm. There is also timed/paid parallel parking. Would I return? definitely!

    Here isWe have visited Jackson's several times, and while this is my first formal review, our…read moreexperiences here have consistently been excellent. On this occasion, we returned specifically for the calamari--which is truly outstanding--and decided to explore a few additional menu items. We ordered the California rolls, goat cheese salad, and crab and corn chowder, and each dish was phenomenal. The quality, flavor, and presentation across the board were impressive. Despite being a popular and often busy restaurant, the service remains efficient and welcoming. The staff is consistently courteous and accommodating, and we were seated promptly without issue. Their ability to maintain a high level of hospitality, even during peak times, speaks well to their overall operation. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance. There is a comfortable, family-friendly environment inside, complete with menu options for children, while the outdoor seating area offers a more vibrant, metropolitan feel--ideal for small groups or those looking to enjoy a lively setting. From a value standpoint, the pricing is reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and the overall experience. Additionally, the location adds to its appeal, offering a pleasant setting that is perfect for an after-dinner walk with family or friends. Overall, Jackson's continues to deliver a well-rounded and highly enjoyable dining experience. It is a place I would confidently recommend and one we will certainly continue to visit.
