Every Reston where-to-eat list in one place: pizza, wings, Mexican, burgers, sushi and Asian, breakfast, bakeries, desserts and patios.

Last checked Oct. 23, 2026. Refreshed every three months.

Reston eats in two main places: Reston Town Center, where Market Street, Democracy Drive and Library Street hold most of the sit-down restaurants and dessert shops, and Reston Station beside the Wiehle-Reston East Metro station. The village centers at Lake Anne, North Point, South Lakes and Hunters Woods each add a few neighborhood places.

Each list below is alphabetical, with addresses, hours from each place’s own website and phone numbers. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside the Reston census boundary, the same records behind our local business directory. None of the lists is a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on them. If your restaurant is missing or something is wrong, write to us.

A list we did not make

We looked for a barbecue list too, but found fewer than four barbecue restaurants in Reston we could confirm, so there is no barbecue page yet. If you run a Reston barbecue restaurant, send us your website.
