The food is particularly good and especially for the value. I had a lamb shank the other day that was absolutely delicious and plentiful. The chicken wings were delicious. I'd go back for sure' read more

I freakin LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Right on the lake, the ambience for this place is amazing. The menu is pure perfection, I'm a lover of halibut and a good steak fruits, and there fresh fish offerings are consistently amazing. The service is great and on the weekends live music is reliably awesome read more

We had a fantastic brunch. It was a beautiful late fall morning on the patio overlooking the lake. Allie our server was excellent and the food was really well done. We had a few appetizers - goat cheese balls, crab dip, and boom boom shrimp, along with chicken and waffles and a couple breakfast sandwiches. Lots of layers of flavor, really fresh, really well done. Wish we were closer so we could visit more often. read more

I don't live close to Red's but each time I dine here, I think to myself, "I should come here more often." And it's true! Red's is a such an easy, pleasant, reliable spot to enjoy a meal and drinks. Service: friendly, accommodating, attentive (but not overly so!), knowledgeable Food: quality ingredients, nice portions (not insane amounts of food but you're not leaving hungry), and nicely presented (without being fussy). And although I'm not vegetarian or vegan, they have a few nice selections for those who are. Atmosphere: comfortable and warm inside. Outside seating (when the weather is amenable) is an absolute delight (soothing water view, anyone?). Logistics: they take reservations (always appreciated), and there is ample free parking. Red's, I hope you're around for a long time. And I hope I remember to join you more often. Keep up the good work. read more

Red's Table - "Dead Man Walking" cocktail and a tangerine-guava sour draft beer. - New American Near Me - Reston, Virginia

I was happy to be able to try Red's Table for brunch. Service was friendly. We were seated on their enclosed and heated outdoor area. It was great to have the heat on a winter's day, but when the heat became too much for us, the waitress was so kind to the heat for us so that we were more comfortable. I tried the brunch poutine, shrimp and grits, and smoked salmon benedict. I really enjoyed the poutine and shrimp and grits. The shrimp was well seasoned and cooked, and the grits were cheesy and fluffy. I thought the salmon Benedict was bland, so probably wouldn't get that in the future. If you haven't been, I definitely recommend giving Red's Table a try. It sits on a lake, so is also really scenic. read more

Delicious food, portions just the right size, friendly but unobtrusive service, beautiful setting! A local friend took me to this gem. We enjoyed our sweet potato salad with steak and shared dessert afterwards, on a lovely autumn afternoon. There were other diners on the patio but we all had plenty of room and the sound level and temperature were just right. Will definitely recommend to anyone heading to the area!! read more

We just had our second corporate event at Red's, and I cannot say enough about this restaurant! Ryan and staff were great to work with from beginning to end. Quality of the food, presentation, friendliness of staff- cannot say enough! The restaurant itself is the perfect location on the lake- whether it is December or a beautiful warm day in the spring. Red's never lets us down!! read more

I'm a local Restonian who grew up next to SLSC so I've been frequenting this spot since the Lakeside Inn days. I brought some of my sales team here on Friday at 2:30pm to sit on the patio to do business reviews then transition into happy hour and dinner. We had ordered apps and drinks throughout our time here and were catching up when the manager Craig came up to us and notified us that we had been there for "...3 hours and 10 minutes" and that he had "...waited as long as he could" but we had to go and gave us the check. This was a first for me at any restaurant. While I understand his priority to monetize a prime table on a Friday night, I'm shocked at how inhospitable this was considering he's a manager in the hospitality industry. Why not try to upsell us by sending the staff over to tell us about the specials or promoting a bottle of wine? We had every intention of ordering dinner. Instead he created a memorably embarrassing moment for me and my guests. No chance I'll be hosting anyone ever again at Reds which is too bad as it was one of my favorite places to take guests. read more

Lovely restaurant with beautiful view. Good food & drink options. Friendly service. Highly recommend.

Great service! Food was ok. Carrot cake needs a bit of improvement. Too dry and too much icing. I'll come back for the location and outdoor seating. read more

We were there Saturday 8/2. Loved the ambiance! Trendy, cozy and fun. Their singer/guitarist was terrific. We had burgers and a wedge salad. All were delicious. Servers were very accommodating. We'll be back. read more

This lakeside spot in Reston is everything you want in a local favorite, stunning views, warm ambiance, and a team that genuinely cares. The staff goes out of their way to make families and kids feel welcome, which is rare and deeply appreciated. The food? Always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you're catching up with friends or having a low-key meal with little ones, Red's Table makes it feel easy and elevated. Consistently excellent. read more

This restaurant is located in a busy shopping center and it is set by the Patomic River in Reston. Their a large food choice. We were a private party of 10, so we had our own private room/type covered balcony. This is a venue my company uses frequently, and we're always very pleased with their service. Their appetizers were great, as well as the entrée. There's a full bar, and their prices are reasonable. It's a great venue for company events. We'll be back here in a few weeks for another company dinner. Great place, and I recommend it. read more

Red's Table - Cheers photo - New American Near Me - Reston, Virginia

Was here last week for the first time. WOW. I've lived in this area for 8 years and never went. Sat outside looking over the lake and the fresh air and ambiance was amazing. Inside was too noisy and no view. Ordered the burger and onion rings which were both very good. Burger was perfectly prepared but the onion rings. Oh my gosh. The best I've ever had. Literally the best. I would go back and just order two plates of those. I was so surprised this restaurant was in my neighborhood and I've never been there. What a gem. read more

I simply love this place. I have been going to this place for over 7 years now, and it has never failed to bring a smile on my face . The servers are always smiling and welcoming. The menu is simple and mouth watering. You really can't go wrong. Their drinks are really good. And the most fabulous part of this place is the lake location. One really can't beat this. read more

We just had a horrible experience at Red's table. Went there with my wife and daughter, and we ordered the goat cheese fritters, kid's pomodoro pasta, ricotta gnocchi and the NY strip steak. The good: The goat cheese fritters were good, no complaints. The bad: The kid's pasta was raw, not al dente. (also, who would even make pasta al dente for kids?). When I say raw, I mean you could see the thick white strip of uncooked pasta when you cut the penne in half. The horrible: Both the gnocchi AND the steak tasted like rancid oil, or rancid meat or something. We tried the gnocchi first, and immediately gagged. We tried to flag down our waitress, but she took a while coming over. In the meantime, I tried the steak, and ...same exact taste! Seriously awful, off-putting rancid taste. We immediately went in and told the waitress. She asked if we wanted them to cook it again...like, no, I don't want NEW rancid food. The fact that TWO different dishes had the exact same awful taste is a pretty good indication that it's something bigger than just the one dish. They brought the check, and we paid for the fritters and the pasta and got out of there as fast as possible. The most frustrating thing was, nobody apologized, there was no coupon or comping of anything we DID eat, nothing. With disgusting food and awful management, we will never go back to Red's table. read more

Ryan and the team made my company's private event so easy and flawless. I reached out regarding reserving the private space, heard back within the hour and they reserved it for us. They were so flexible when rescheduling the time to earlier. To top it all off the service was fantastic as well as the food. Highly recommend! read more

Wonderful food with an inventive menu. Great atmosphere; family friendly. Exceptional service. Wide selection of craft beers. Red's Table is our go-to spot for date night at least once a week. Very reasonably priced. This is the ideal neighborhood restaurant if you love great food with a creative twist. read more

Stopped here for Sunday brunch. Red's Table is part of larger shopping area with ample parking nearby. Its waterfront location has a nice view of the lake both in and outside. The outside area is open during nice weather and has a cover during winter. Seating was prompt and we started with coffee and mimosas, both were good. Brunch was a pair of Benedicts: Tomato & Spinach and Red's Biscuits & Gravy. Both were well made and hearty. Service was friendly. read more

Cool place for being in a shopping center. The food was very well presented and full of flavor. There were a couple other menu items that looked interesting, so when back in the area, I'll be back. Little bizarre is they paper clip the check to a post card when they present it. If you remove the paper clip and post card to read the check and give your credit card, the will attach another postcard, with a paper clip, when they return the charge receipt and your card. It's so strange, I had to ask. Turns out the post card is backing for the charge receipt not to curl and so the pen will actually write. read more

Tried Red's for the first time for brunch. Service was a little on the slow side but not terrible. Our waitress was very nice and pleasant. There were a lot of kids that walked around picking up empty glasses and plates which was nice. One that brought our appetizer did over "man-handle" the plate but at least didn't touch the food. The fried goat cheese was by far the best things we ate. I got the chicken and waffles, my friend got the caramelized peach French toast. She seemed to enjoy it. The fried chicken was great. Breading wasn't too heavy, cooked well. Problem was it lacked seasoning. You could see the salt on the breading but seemed the chicken and batter/breading was not initially seasoned. The waffles were very good. A little cold, no butter. I got the sriracha maple sauce with it, also good. The Bloody Mary was pretty watered down, asked for it to be spicy but was missing a lot of flavor. The espresso martini was excellent. I got the impression there was a single bartender, and the bartender was responsible for delivering all drinks. Not necessarily the best system. Nice view of the lake. Parking was not great. read more

I have probably been here five times over the last few years. There are some strong pros, but also some improvement opportunities: Pros: - this restaurant is a small business gem in a sea of chain restaurants and fried food joints - the location on the water is unbeatable if you can snag an outdoor seat - the mushroom and rolled oat burger is an awesome vegetarian option! It has structure and bite (aka not mushy) and comes with fries, onion rings, or a side salad - the parking is easy and the waitstaff has been consistently friendly - the food is always fresh and flavorful - the beer menu is extensive and features fun local options Opportunities: - there is no clear system for outdoor seating, which is very frustrating since we come here specifically because we can eat outdoors - sometimes we wait 10 minutes and others 45, even if we see an available table - the menu is unclear given that the sandwiches come with a choice of side - the menu only has one vegetarian appetizer, one vegetarian sandwich, and one vegetarian pasta option - the menu's pricing is all over the place, which makes splitting with another couple difficult and/or awkward - the appetizers are expensive relative to the portions provided read more

We have enjoyed eating at Red's since it opened. The service is always excellent and we appreciate that no one tries to hurry you out the door The food is unfailingly good with a particular favorite being the Bang Bang shrimp!

We just visited for the first time on Saturday, September 14th and were very impressed! Our party of 4 showed up without a reservation on Homecoming night (unbeknownst to us) and were seated and served quickly . The food was wonderful and offered creative and unique options even for Gluten Free and Vegan. The service was awesome and our server , Rosanna, was simply charming and fun! Her suggestions were spot on and she was very attentive. We will definitely be going back and I've shared the suggestion with others in the area. I would suggest dining in the covered porch area while the weather is pretty. Perfect calm and serene setting for an evening dinner. read more

Reds Table was a hit for both food and ambience. Hostess was very pleasant, and the server greeted us promptly and was very engaging. The entree list could use a chicken dish of some sort, as that is what I often order out. My husband loved his scallop dish and my sweet potato salad with added chicken was amazing The crab appetizer with rustic bread was one of the best we have ever had. I can't believe I've lived in the area for over thirty years and visited Reds Table for the first time! We will be back read more

I went to Red's for the first time but a week ago and loved it so much I went back for lunch this week. The food is excellent, with great variety and interesting cuisine choices.

They have a great view from the outside patio. It's sort of a three seasons patio with heaters, so you can sit out there when it's chilly out. It really has a fun vibe. Love the Chesapeake crab dip. The bang bang shrimp are absolutely amazing, probably the best I've tried. Outstanding price on oysters. Just a great seafood place. Also we went there one of the times with a very large group. George was our server and he is completely amazing! read more

Went here for the first time on a Friday afternoon. The service was impeccable, the food was delicious, the beers they have on tap and in cans (lot of local stuff) was great. We weren't super enthusiastic about the cocktails we tried but we'll certainly be back to try other concoctions. Highly recommend the shrimp appetizer, the burger and fries are great, and the crab cake entree was absolutely fantastic. Heck, only issue is there are some crappy drivers in this busy shopping center which can be aggravating but will perhaps make you enjoy your adult beverages more when you're taking the edge off read more
