The staff is really nice and friendly and I already know what to order for my next few visits. Parking may be a challenge but it's not really a busy area.

The Spicy dry noodles are definitely what drew me to come here and they did not disappoint. My kids loved the pork chops. The seafood soup was loaded! The flavors were exceptional.

We had not been to PassionFish Reston since December 2020 because we moved to a southern state. We finally visited our family and friends in the DMV and celebrated two fabulous dinners and one happy hour after a six-year hiatus. Well PassionFish was still top shelf, sterling caliber with Chef Chris Clime as the new owner. Thank goodness because after a long gap in enjoying the restaurant, staff, and delicious seafood cuisine - it still is the best. We had two mouth watering dinner with family and friends while visiting town. We enjoyed the always terrific Blackened Swordfish, Halibut, and the most spectacular Whole Crispy Rockfish entree. Our deserts were the Key Lime Pie with Pineapple Sorbet and the Chocolate Dome with Cotton Candy volcano eruption - SUPERB all were. It was so wonderful to see staff members whom we remembered still working the the restaurant. Damien Beard, the manager, was equally as welcoming to see us again after six-years. PassionFish Reston could not be in better hands and we cannot wait to celebrate again with the staff. Cheers.

Despite a packed Father's Day crowd, the kitchen never missed a beat. The Crab & Corn Chowder was beautifully presented--rich, velvety, and generously loaded with sweet crab meat. The oysters from Maine and Rhode Island were the evening's surprise stars. As someone who typically favors the briny, ocean-forward oysters of the Pacific Northwest, I was impressed by the depth of flavor and refreshing salinity these East Coast selections offered. The grilled Arctic char was cooked with precision, its fattier flesh remaining moist, flaky, and remarkably delicate. Equally impressive were the sautéed soft-shell crabs--fresh, aromatic, and expertly prepared. Paired with the silky Lemon Beurre Blanc, they were outstanding and easily among the finest soft-shell crabs I've enjoyed in town this season. Exceptional seafood, flawless execution, and a strong recommendation for PassionFish.

Their dishes are divine, most notably the GINDARA. A black cod cooked perfectly combined with a magical hoisin sauce that is both sweet and savory, this dish takes seafood standards to a new level. I could eat two of these in a sitting. The only negative part was they gave me a much smaller portion size for some reason compared to my male friend. They need bigger portions for something this good! The other dishes were really good as well, I ate here for restaurant week so I had to have the oysters and also tried the golden beet salad. The reason this wasn't 5 stars was because my golden beet salad was missing the apple dressing vinegrette entirely, and when I asked the server if it had dressing he told me it was the tofu spread that was the dressing, but that wasn't what the menu said when I checked it later. I ate it but it was very plain and dry because my salad was missing dressing. I hope they read reviews and can address this part of the experience! The other dishes I tried which my friend got was the tuna and avocado dip (forgot the name) which was also good even though I don't eat raw fish. The taro chips it came with were yummy. I also enjoyed the fried chicken - tastes like Chick Fil A but Asian style. Finally, the dessert was good, it was a chocolate mousse cake with cherry sauce. The service was good and professional, and overall ambiance is pleasant and lounge like. I hope they can make sure next time they don't skip the dressing, and have bigger portions on the gindara because that is one of my top favorite dishes at a restaurant of all time!

I came here getting the kogi steak and cheese. For around $8, you get a decent sized sandwich that taste really good! The kogi steak was pretty tender and Sandwich bread with it was toasty. It's definitely a must try for steak and cheese fans who want to try a bit of kbbq mix. The sandwich also came with kettle chips which was pretty nice. I would say one of the biggest downside is that the restaurants building just started to charge for parking. So the best place to park is the parking garage that offers free 30 min parking. Though they prepare the food fast, I highly recommend coming either early or after lunch rush since the line can build up.

Banban is another one of those sushi "bowl" places. However, unlike all the other poke places,…read moreBanban has been open for years, and is much less trendy and more straightforward. Personally, I like that much more because there are no crowds of teenagers and the no frills vibe suits its surrounding environment better. It's tucked away in an office park. In and out is easy. Just place your order at the cashier first, then wait until they call your number and pick up your food at the counter where they assemble the food, underneath the menus. Next to that counter are additional condiments like Sriracha. There are some chairs and tables to eat at, but it's more of a takeout place than a sit-down restaurant. While they're open for breakfast, I have only eaten here after 11:00am, so my review is for their lunch, and specifically their sushi bowls. I've posted pictures of 3 different kinds, the Sushi-ko, Hawaiian, and Chirasi bowls. Each bowl has your choice of fish, grain, and then has a particular set of vegetables. In all honesty, I'm not too particular, so the three are not very different, aside from the assortment of vegetables you get with them, and the sauce. It's a pretty simple concept, but gives you enough variety. I like them, and am more concerned about getting a healthy mix of foods packed into the same meal. Banban certainly succeeds in this department. The quality of the ingredients, at least recently, is pretty standard. I'm not a sushi expert, so I can't comment on the fish quality, but it seems fine, and the veggies have consistently been fresh while I've visited over the last few years. If you work in the Tysons area, this is a great healthy lunch spot. While I only get the sushi bowls, you can also get: salads, wraps, sandwiches, tacos, burritos, and noodle bowls. Plus you can customize entire bowls. That's about 30 different options! While their selections favor omnivores, vegetarians have a few options, too. One important thing to note is that the word "sushi" might imply that it's Japanese, but it's actually a Korean place. This separates it from the other similar places because they offer bulgogi, kimchi, etc. Everything is under $12, and most items are under $10, and the portion size is comparable to other fast-casual spots. It's great for one serving, and if you're a healthy eater who adheres to advised portion sizes, then you'll be more than satisfied. If you're someone who is used to super-sized portions, then you might find it less filling (compared to a Chipotle burrito or Cava bowl). All in all, I come here because it beats all the unhealthy options, and because it has always been consistently satisfying. Service is also straightforward and pleasant. As a side-note, parking is sparse, so please keep that in mind. You'll either have to circle around, or walk there. This parking situation, plus the fact that they're not particularly remarkable prevents me from giving it 5 stars, but the consistency of quality, straightforward businesslike experience, and health factor are pluses in my book. I hope this helps!

If you're Korean, and you're looking for the traditional affair, this is not it. I'd take a client or friends here who aren't Korean. It's catered more towards non-Koreans IMO. They're selling this as an upscale spot and while the quality of meat is pretty darn good, you have to ask for lettuce and garlic - the two items always present at a traditional k bbq. It kind of sh*ts on the tradition by doing that. Why not provide that to give the full experience we all expect? I love luxury dining as much as anyone else but this was a colossal waste of money. I come to this shopping center multiple times a week since I live in McLean and almost always miss that this exists. They also have barstools outside facing the bar indoors but it's just so awkward. The sidewalk of this area is not built for that! Great idea (usually), but terrible execution. There's so many Korean bbq places nearby. I'm glad I tried this place to kill my curiosity of what they do different. Again, great spot if you want in bbq in a more upscale atmosphere, but it's more or less "fusion," and I'd be good with a business dinner here. Service was impeccable though. I appreciated the promptness in attending to our needs. The savory dishes btw- the dwenjangjiggae is awful. Lacks depth, flavor, and just overall was very meh. The other items (and we had all 5) were just fine. Nothing to sing home about.
