Stopped at Makers Union in Reston on a rainy Sunday afternoon after taking our dog to the dog park…read more We sat outside on the patio with Onyx, and our server Kenny was great. When the rain started becoming an issue, he actually moved the umbrellas together to make sure Onyx had a dry spot. Really appreciated that. We started with a Bourbon Club and the Nitro Espresso Martini, then got the buffalo wings and she-crab soup. The wings can be grilled or fried and we went grilled, which was definitely the right call. Good char on them and I'd get them the same way again. The she-crab soup was also really good and perfect for a rainy afternoon. For lunch we had the French dip and the Reuben, and subbed the mac and cheese for one of the sides. Both sandwiches were solid, but the mac and cheese deserves a mention of its own. Definitely worth the substitution. Good food, good drinks, and especially good service from Kenny. Being able to hang out on the patio with our dog without the rain ruining lunch made the whole experience even better.

SERVICE: First time we just walk in and they couldn't sit us for about 20min, each time telling to wait and do not leave. What could be easily solved by getting us on wait list with time approximation. Next time we decided to avoid trouble and booked few days in advance, just to realize that reservation actually not getting you a table We came on time and were asked to wait. Fine, no problems. After 30 min standing outside( because people were coming and leaving) we came in and asked about our table, confused hostess was trying to find reservation again, after she completed the task we were asked to wait.... Then they lead us to a table with strangers and only 2 free sits( we were party of 4)To cut the struggle I said that there are few free tables outside and we are fine to stay there, and finely were settled. The waitress brought us menus and we haven't seen her for the next 20 min... FOOD: the choice is not very wide, but there are some interesting options. Unfortunately not everything we tried there got a picture as it took time and few visits to write this review. Overall, food is good. AMBIANCE: modern interior design, big bar with variety of cocktails and draft beer. There are few areas inside : big tables ( be ready to sit at the same table with other people) , smaller tables and high tables. it can get pretty noisy inside.

Had eaten half before I remembered to take a picture. They do have online ordering (which I didn't use today but might speed up the line.) That said, I've been before with friends for lunch and was less impressed. Floors and tables were pretty dirty by midday, and my salad had some moldy leaves. I've heard similar commentary on lunch from others. Overall, highly recommend for pastries and coffee!!

Have a had better yes, did it meet my craving, yes. I recommend them. The service was good and the atmosphere was old-fashion home type feel. I thought the latte would be sweeter. It was ok. Didn't have the strong flavor profile as I would have thought.

Back for lunch for the first time in a long time. For a midweek lunch, they were not busy at all;…read moreno wait, just walk right in and get seated. Always good to find a place that serves breakfast all day and has traditional comfort foods. Yes, the portions are large, but the prices are high. The seats are hard; having some cushions would improve the comfort level a lot. After 90 minutes, I just could not sit anymore. The service was just OK. After taking our order, the waiter just disappeared. I was finally able to flag him down to pay the bill. From this experience, no need to rush back. It is just borderline acceptable.

The one blip was when we first entered, the young-ish man at the host desk looked at us with a "What are you doing here?" grimace. I was stunned since the hosts are usually very happy to see patrons come in. Beyond that, though, we had a lovely time. Our server was quite friendly and got hubs customized Cuban order just right. I had the killer tomato basil soup and tasty grilled cheese. I also got an order to go of the Buffalo Chicken wrap. It was yummy the next day for lunch. We hadn't been to NYAJ's in years. It had somehow fallen off our dining radar. We'll be back more often after our recent terrific dinner.

The environment and ambiance is the same as it always was, but it was slow with a clear doom feeling. The cost of the food was too much, which may also be why they did not make it.

Once opening the door, you just head to the right side to the grill. Since we visited on a weekday and fairly early, before the lunch rush, it was not crowded at all so we got to sit underneath the neat mason jar chandelier with a prime view of the driving range. I was super excited to try the ube waffles since I'm a fan of most ube flavored things. My husband got the more traditional silog bowl which I ended up liking more since I'm actually not big on breakfast food. The spam fries had a cute presentation with the canister but were extremely salty. Water and condiments were self serve. I noticed there were booster seats and high chairs in the corner so you could bring the kiddos. Restrooms were also off to the side and had cute birdie themed decorations courtesy of the Herndon Ladies Golf League.
