Wow this place was packed on a weeknight! Super cozy inside with comfy booths but sooooo loud. The service was very very slow and it seemed at times the servers forgot about us. I tried the Caesar salad which was crisp and fresh. Also tried the bucatini, a vegetarian version. The waitress said this was a bigger portion pasta but it was honestly pretty small. The sauce was also so spicy!! The flavor of the fresh tomatoes with the spices was good however, but nothing amazing. I also tried a bit of sea bass with purée which was better than my entree for sure. I would come back and try something else! I saw some of the dishes being brought out and they looked amazing. read more

Absolutely amazing food and wonderful service. The staff are almost family-like and their recommendations are spot on. We have been twice and had amazing steak, the best potatoes, and beautifully crafted drinks. Chef Dane is spectacular and we wish him and the restaurant the very best success. read more

Food was fair--- but a saffron risotto tasted artificial and off. Drinks--- sound great on the menu, but tbh-- came out underwhelming. A drink with all types of interesting notes of pine and cranberry came out as a basic Paloma. The space was cool- but is fairly loud as the night rolls on. The staff were friendly and attentive. Would I come back? Maybe... read more

These employees from the GM to bartender seriously need real training. Not only did they NOT spot a fake ID like they do smugly thought they did. -- because it wasn't!!! But they snapped my friend's ID during their diligent absurd incorrect test and actually cracked her ID!!! And they were complete assholes. Don't go here. EVERY PLACE in Reston Town Center is BETTER. read more

I ADORE this place!!! I love the classy ambience that makes you feel like you're in the Great Gatsby! The food and drinks are super super good too! The service was amazing and made us feel so comfortable and welcome. Will definitely be coming back again. read more

We won't be returning. The manager tried to respond to my Yelp review by claiming why the gift card (mind you only one when it was 2 couples) that didn't even cover the cost of the steak (that was overcooked). And yet she tried to say come back and try some dishes. Why on Earth do we want to return, spend money on overpriced dishes just to have another situation and they couldn't even compensate properly? Negative. read more

Cocktails are amazing. Burger is incredible. I almost don't want to leave a review so it doesn't get too popular. But one of my new favorite spots for sure. Our waitress was so nice and recommended great cocktails for us. The vibe in there is cozy and fancy. Definitely recommend. read more

Love the ambiance, food was also good. Service was okay. We did not had any reservation and it was Friday night, so we had to seat at the bar. I would recommend to make reservation in order to get good seating read more

This place was fantastic but it was priced high. I have no complaints about the food. Had the Caesar salad, the burger, and the lobster pasta. The waiter did forget to put in our food order which was not the best experience but I would still recommend this place. I though that the drinks were all crafted well but wasn't a huge fan of most of them. I did however really enjoy the hamlet. read more

Best fine dining restaurant experience I've had to date. The food was immaculate and the service was above-and-beyond; impeccable even. The waiters and waitresses are very attentive and seek to really make your time at Heirloom a truly pleasant time. The General Manager Samuel is a testament to how amazing his staff is, as I believe he is a leading example for quality customer service, he was out on the floor, greeting everyone and making sure everyone was satisfied. I had a reservation mixup for a party of 6 for a birthday occasion and he saw to it personally that this was addressed promptly, correctly, and going so far as to make sure I was satisfied with the outcome. I will be coming back and recommending Heirloom to everyone I know. I can't express enough the amazing customer service and the warm and welcome personalities of the staff. read more

Amazing drinks, food, ambiance, and service. Will definitely visit this speakeasy again.

Wonderful evening at Heirloom! Nice options on the menu. I really enjoyed the great food. The service was impressive too. Will be back soon. read more

I'm a bit hesitant to post a first review on this brand new Reston secret.... It's absolutely amazing and tucked away behind a hidden door in the one week old Open Road Distillery. Only open evenings. To be honest, I didn't know it was there until it suddenly popped up on Open Table this past week. The service was perfect given it's so new. Everyone was so professional and knowledgeable about the menu including the specialty drinks, entrees and desserts. I loved the Mai Tai's, Manicotti and the crispy layer potatoes. The Coconut Cream Pie Trifle was not exactly what I expected, but still very good. I highly recommend Heirloom and happy we were able to dine here before the buzz hits and I guarantee it will be extremely popular! read more

The inside of the restaurant is beautiful. We came here because the menu looked great. However food was ok for what we ordered. The Service is something to be desired. There were employees around the host stand but no one greeted us. We stood there awkwardly for a while until someone finally came up to us. As for while we were at our table, we probably would have ordered more if our server came around more often and if it did not take over 10- 15 minutes to get a drink after ordering. Cocktails were good, I definitely recommend the sweet pea. Maybe sitting in the bar area would be better instead of sitting in a secluded room with other tables. read more

Very elegant and charming venue. It was my friend's birthday, and we wanted to try something new. We were excited just by the entranceway TBH. Beautiful decor and entry door. The food was excellent and the service was even better. We had amazing cocktails, and it was a really special night. I can't wait to go again! read more

Heirloom is a cute "speakeasy" meaning there is an unmarked door inside another restaurant. The decor and ambiance is so nice. The drinks are unique and beautiful and the food and service were great. I especially loved the gnocchi and the burrata. The appetizers are well worth the price but the entrees seem priced on the high side for the portion. I would give this place a 4.5 taking off .5 for price. I will be back again for sure. I would love a happy hour with discounted items if only 3-6. read more

Updated review: After leaving my review of our first visit to Heirloom, the restaurant reached out to invite us to give them another shot. Last night we took them up on that and made our second trip there for dinner with friends. From the start of dinner, the staff were very welcoming and attentive. Two members of management stopped by during the meal to make sure we were taken care of, and it was clear that they were determined to improve upon our experience of the first visit. As for the food and drinks, everything we had was fantastic. We tried a few different cocktails, including items on their signature, seasonal, and classics lists. All were well executed and flavorful. The wine list also offered some fun and interesting options, and we landed on a bottle of Barolo that was a great accompaniment to the food. We ordered several dishes for the table, and I can honestly say there wasn't a single miss. All in all, we tried: the Focaccia and ham, Burrata, Baked Shrimp, House Made Rigatoni, the Porterhouse, Roasted Mushrooms, Broccoli Rabe, Apple Tarte Tatin, and the Chocolate Hazelnut Dome. As mentioned, all were delicious, but some of the table favorites were the Burrata, Rigatoni, Porterhouse, and the Apple tart. The only minor setback we had was that they were out of a side dish that we ordered and a dessert we intended to order, but we were able to find alternatives. Like the first visit, the ambiance was great. It's lively without being loud, and dim without being dark. The service was a huge step up from our initial visit, and I can say that they definitely followed through with improving our experience as promised. The improved service, along with the excellent food and drinks, make Heirloom an easy recommendation, and we'll be back in the future for sure. read more

This restaurant is like finding a jewel in a haystack. It is tucked away in the back of the distillery and behind solid doors. Once you find it, it is worth the effort. My date and I went without reservations (not recommended) but were happy to be seated near the bar. She ordered steak and I the sea scallops. We both came away amazed at the quality of the food. The wine selection was great as well. read more

Been there twice and food and service was excellent . Servers frequently checked in to see if everything was ok and automatically refilled water without asking for it read more

The food here is ridiculously overpriced and far from fancy or even remotely good. While the cocktails were somewhat decent, our visit was ruined by a super aggressive bartender who thought yelling at customers was acceptable. The manager, unfortunately, seemed indifferent to the whole situation. It's quite sad that the best part of the evening was the music selection & the beautiful decor. read more

While 5 star reviews are few and far between, when they happen they are special occasions in comfortable surroundings like Heirloom. On a quiet Wednesday evening, decided to check out this relatively new place in Reston Town Center. What a pleasant surprise to find this diamond in the rough behind a door in what is essentially a brew pub "Open Road" in front and cool cocktail bar with delicious interpretations of appetizers and entree in back. To start the cocktails are foo-foo high end style, house liquor or your choice. The Old Fashioned was just right. Not sweet or over muddled... Just block of ice bourbon and dash of bitters, olive garnished.. White wine served in tall stemware crisp and refreshing. And then the belly satisfying delights arrived.. Buratta was to die for.. Shrimp, in "beurre blanc" outstanding! As if that wasnt satisfying enough, we decided to go all out and order more goodies.. Pan roasted scallops.. oh what a delight and the crescendo seafood "Cioppino" Simply heaven.. For desert, sorbet and coconut cream trifle, satisfied the sweet tooth all the way. The staff was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. The mood lighting may be extreme for some, however on date night with that special person, the atmosphere is conducive to romance. Parking for Reston Town Center is just across the street and most convenient to the toll road or 267 Fairfax County Parkway. As this was the first toe dip in the water and the water was fine.. We'll be back to explore further this stylish watering spot. read more

Great speakeasy in Reston. The ambience is amazing. The food is excellent. The wine list is extensive and the cocktails are great.

Nice hidden gem. Great cocktails and nice selection of food. Not much in the way of happy hour offerings. But still is highly recommended.

Heirloom has a nice vibe - it has character while not being loud or fancy. They have a great drink menu. The tartare has a nice sauce with it. The mussels are fresh and in a good broth. Bucatini is a little thick and acidic. That said, will definitely be back. read more

I so wanted to love this restaurant/ speakeasy, BUT...it was too LOUD on Saturday night at 7:30pm. From the moment we stepped through the rose adorned door, it was an onslaught of chatter. Since our table wasn't ready yet, we opted to leave and wait out in the Open Road Distilling Co. area that was quieter. We were notified via text that our table was ready and seated in the small room off the main entry. Hoping for a quieter setting, we were sadly disappointed when the nearby table of 6 decided not to use their inside voices through their entire one hour dessert course. Noticeably quieter once they left, but the music was too loud, it was forcing people to speak louder. So, you can't choose your dining mates, how about the staff? The hostess was not friendly, not rude either, just indifferent. Our waiter was also not friendly or rude and very difficult to hear. He was just meh. The only redeeming thing was the food. We ordered: focaccia starter , gnocchi pasta to share, sea bass for my husband, and scallops for me. Full disclosure: I had previously decided I am not a scallops girl, but past photos & reviews had me second guessing that. I ate half of each of the 4 scallops on the plate and it tasted like they were not fully cooked and had a slight off smell. The cauliflower seemed undercooked as well. The other 3 dishes were fantastic though, like wanting to order seconds of each. The gnocchi was melt in your mouth as it should be and the sea bass had the most perfect sear on it. The flavor combinations of the other 3 dishes were spot on. It saddens me to not write a stellar review, but it was our honest opinion. One and done for us until the acoustics are addressed. read more

Super fun evening. Food was delish and ambiance was stellar. Drinks were presented with flair.

Great food, terrific drinks and wine list, and dimly lit ambience via a cool "speakeasy" hidden entrance in Open Road.

They gave our reservation to someone else. We were even 10 minutes early. Food was good but really way over priced. We won't be going back because well, it's just not any better than any where else. Especially since again, they gave our reservation to someone else. read more

Was honestly blown away by the food! Smoke crab tortellini was very tasty and had a nice balance of sweet, smoky, and hint of spice to it. The mussels were incredibly packed with flavor in a garlic and tomatoe based broth and paired extremely well with a nice crunchy garlic toast. Carpaccio was just okay, tad on the salty side for me. We also really enjoyed the Caesar Salad with its touch of fresh anchovies. Drinks were really interesting and we were able to order both on and off the menu. Service was really good, servers and bartenders were all really friendly offering food and drink suggestions. I thought the ambiance was nice but agree it can definitely get a little loud. Will be coming back for sure! read more

Awful! There were 5 of us at a round table in a back room, where the noise level was painful and we couldn't hear each other. My brined chicken was dry and salty. The manager was attentive and comped my chicken, but everyone was dissatisfied with their bland entrees, including the gnocchi and the shrimp fettuccine. I didn't enjoy my sticky toffee pudding and a friend's apple tart was disappointing too. The Shower Beer was tasty. read more

Impeccable! The four of us all agreed it was the best dinner out in a very long time. Heirloom is such a cozy intimate space with amazing food and gourmet craft cocktails. We started with cocktails: the canon de, sazerac, and old fashioned. All perfectly mixed. For appetizers we had the focaccia with whipped ricotta, beef carpaccio and a special beef short rib pasta that were all delicious and would have been enough for dinner. For entrees we enjoyed the scallops, amazing cioppino, and burgers that were to die for! We finished off dinner with cocktails: amazing espresso martini, el duderino and a bees knees that reminded me of a honey laced lemon meringue pie. Speaking of dessert, the chocolate hazelnut dome, refreshing sorbet and coconut cream trifle were all worth the calories. But best of all was the service. Very attentive and helpful. We highly recommend! read more

Went on a Friday night to Heirloom! Very trendy but classic speakeasy located inside of Open Road. We had a large group and the staff were very accommodating, filling our wine repeatedly and checking in on us frequently. Highly recommend the prosciutto and burrata appetizers as well as the burger, tortellini, and steak. The desserts were all delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant for a date night or girls night. read more

-1 star for an issue that wasn't rectified. 50th birthday dinner which was noted in the reservation request. Beautiful interior. Service was professional and quick although a bit stiff. Food is pricey but the meal was well executed and we both very much enjoyed our meals. We had the short rib which I highly recommend and a steak which was cooked to perfection. The zombie cocktail drink was meh. The desserts were fabulous - a chocolate dome and the apple tartine which I also highly recommend. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn't do anything special to either dessert to commemorate the occasion. I didn't say anything at the time as I didn't want to make it an issue. I called the restaurant and spoke to a manager to express disappointment. They took it under advisement, acknowledged a lack of communication and left it at that. We'll return if service and food remain the same quality but can't help feeling disappointed more was not done the day of or to rectify when notified especially since it is a special birthday. (FYI, there is zero kid food not even French fries so we fed ours before and they enjoyed the desserts) read more

Cute place, but the 'speak easy' vibes were mid. Tables for two are way too close together. Need to remove a set in between and give some elbow and seating space. Coat check was a plus. Wine was great, old fashioned was nice but a small, shallow pour. The burrata appetizer was the highlight of the night and probably the only thing that would bring me back. It was so layered in flavor and complex and delicious! Generous portion. Loved it! Cioppino was light on fish. One shrimp, one scallop, 5 mussels and the strangest flavor profile we've ever tasted in a Cioppino. Bitter and overpowering. A real disservice to the dish which should be elegant and highlight the seafood. Did not enjoy! Bolognese was spicy, which was not expected or described in description, laden with whole black peppercorns that were so off putting! I feared I might break a tooth so I found myself eating very carefully so I could fish them out of my dinner before biting into them. Not a good dish. Again, the unusual spice combination in this dish was bizarre! Sticky toffee pudding was good. Small but tasty. Would never recommend our entree options but the other elements of our dinner were good. It was our first time and before I write Heirloom off completely, I would make different entree selections. We were never asked how our entrees were...I would have loved to share our thoughts with our waitress in person, but our service itself was good! Music and volume were nice. Maybe it was an off night, perhaps adjustments will be made based on feedback. Fingers crossed because Reston Town Center needs good dinner places! Hope management reads Yelp! It's the best way to improve a business! read more

Heirloom - Burrata - the best dish of the night - Salad Near Me - Reston, Virginia

The food was good. We both had the burger and ordered asparagus, but they were sold out and it was only 5:30 PM. So we ordered the garlic spinach which I would not recommend. It had too much salt, garlic, and tasted like citrus. the server was friendly, but spent quite a bit of time taking at one table, or more, so we had to "wait" and we already had movie tickets. We planned on sitting at the bar ( but no space) and were told we could order food where the low chairs near the door were, later to be told we couldn't. Fortunately the manager found an open table for us to dine. The hostesses need more training though. Some practice runs would be good for them. read more

The service was terrific and the decor / vibes are lovely, however, I was a bit let down with the food. My pasta was very overcooked and the plating was clumpy, making it hard to eat. The guanciale was rendered inconsistently and some pieces were very fatty and some were crispy. The flavor was okay and it had a nice kick, but I had higher hopes. The crème brûlée was undercooked and unevenly set with no bruleed topping and the berry mixture was wet. Prices are reasonable, all things considered. I would try it again, but not rushing back. Some more attention to detail with the food and this place would be a very high rating! The space is beautiful inside. read more

Exceptional food. Great, fast service. Ambiance is cozy and swanky- feels like a city restaurant in the suburbs. Dessert (coconut trifle) wasn't great but we shared that with a manager and she took it off our bill. read more
