    Bacon cheese burger
    Tonya H.

    I just came here on a whim after a doctors appointment. It was very clean on the inside. The service was great. The cashier was very friendly and informative. The burger was flavorful and tater tots were amazing and fresh. I will definitely be back.

    Cherry blossom shake
    C. R.

    My son and I decided to try this place after exercising on the bike path through Reston (W&OD Trail) on Sat 4/4/26. Bacon cheeseburger cooked medium well, fries and Cherry Blossom Shake....all were outstanding and tasted fresh! Restaurant was very clean, staff was friendly and order came quick after I placed it online after we finished exercising. Order was ready by the time we walked into store. No complaints. We'll be back...

    French fries

    Well, it has been 3 years since my last review and these burgers still slay, as my granddaughters would say. The size and taste of these burgers is amazing. They are super delicious. I can't finish one in a sitting, because they are so large. They are a quality burger with attention to detail. The bun tastes like a brioche roll. I love the crisp bacon and pickled onions. Service is great. We always have our order ready and waiting. The ambiance is nice. It is clean, modern, and comfortable. I just love this place. Three years later and they are still doing an excellent job.

    Beets Sprouts & Harmony Bowl with grilled chicken
    Doris C.

    Service was super kind. My beets and sprouts bowl was 90% great; texturally and flavor wise. The unfortunate 10% was the grilled chicken. It was kind of dry and tough. Everyone else ordered other things and loved it; my mistake was the grilled chicken as a protein. They bring the food to where you're sitting and bus the table for you; really amazing service!

    Late evening and very undecided So I'm working right next to Big Buns and I can't remember if I've eaten here before So tonight's our night Walk in to a really nice playlist and I now know I've made the right choice Resturant is bright and clean I'm greeted by the manager and one of the employees (really nice interaction) You can order from their kiosk (not complex) I had checked out the menu on my ride over so I breezed through. I ordered the Parmesan Truffle fries and the 9th Year Anniversary burger. Rushing I removed all the toppings and the manager had the kitchen fix it for me Wait time was no more than 10 minutes.... Food was hot Note babeee those fries were errting I was truly pleased with my burger also Key points that I would return 1. Clean space 2. Quality of service 3. Staff was awesome They offer Happy Hour 3-6pm with specials Definitely a WINNER

    Big Buns Bundle - CLASSIC BURGER,  FRIES BLACKBERRY LEMONADE FRESH FRUIT JUICES
    Darrell L.

    Burger joints everywhere...5 Guys, Shake Shack, BGR, Burger 21, Social Burger...and I'm not even mentioning the old fast food standbys. Well, Big Buns has been expanding pretty steadily and we just haven't really been compelled to try another burger joint....but...my son has been hearing good things about Big Buns so we head to the Reston location which is right at the Wiehle Metro. They have numerous specialty burgers with different toppings if you are into that (i.e. avocado, egg, mushrooms, carmelized onions, etc). We opt for the Bug Buns Bundle for $13.99 which is a 7 oz classic burger with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles and ketchup. You also get fries and a drink. Not a bad deal. The burger comes out and you can tell it is fresh not frozen with good beefy flavor. The bun is a nice brioche bun. My son says it tastes like a 'backyard bbq' type burger...which is a good thing. Fries are shoestring type fries and are crunchy. Overall, a good burger that hits the spot when you are craving a tasty fresh burger.

    HORSERADISH BOURBON BURGER
    Jessica D.

    Great options and delicious burgers. You'll definitely be full after a meal here. I've also enjoyed the beets and harmony bowl. I think this may be one of my favorite items to get here with the fried chicken. I usually go with the mushroom horseradish burger (hold the horseradish) - it's got lots of flavor. Staff is friendly and service is usually pretty quick. Your bill will add up pretty quickly here however, prices are a bit higher in general.

    Stumbled upon this place coming off the Metro (next to Starbucks). Provided a variety of burgers and fries. Burgers are made to order and with me coming at the beginning of the lunch hour on a Saturday - my food came out quickly. Food is delicious (see my pic). Prices are a little high but worth it. Only negative is they serve fountain drinks that are non Pepsi or non Coke. Took me a while to decide what I wanted to drink - went with the Pear drink (even though I wanted a Diet Coke. Great burger place. I will come again.

    I asked for medium. What I got was (barely) rare)
    Bob T.

    Lot's that was good, one thing, not so much. Firstly, the good stuff. There was plenty of inside parking, which was free with the restaurant's validation. Also, the Big Buns entrance is just a few steps from the garage, so it's very convenient. The place was spotless, and the staff kept cleaning when they weren't doing anything else. And one of the things they were doing when they weren't cleaning was to be very pleasant and helpful. I ordered their "special," a Classic burger (with everything), fries, and a soda.. Everything tasted great, and the only issue was with how my burger was prepared. I ordered it medium. What I got was (barely) rare. It tasted OK and could have been even better if it had been cooked as I requested. I could have sent it back, I guess, but it *was* tasty and I was hungry. If I ever do go back, I'll ask for Medium Well and be more insistent if it comes out with a cool red center.

    ANNIVERSARY BRGR and FRICKEN GOOD FRIED CHICKEN and CAJUN FRIES
    Jessica E.

    One of the best burgers I've had! My husband and I ordered the fried chicken sandwich and the anniversary burger (one of the more popular items) with Cajun fries. Service was great - they are so friendly! Great sizing and portion and so flavorful. The caramelized onion on the burger was *chefs kiss*. The Cajun fries are perfectly crisp and has good amount of Cajun spice. Parking is a little tricky but we frequent founding farmers so we typically park in the garage right below.

    Been here several times and never had a problem until today…read more I recommend the owner gets a ID scanner if they are going to treat their customers like that. We came in today, my group of friends are 27+. like I said, we have been here before, today after we already got our first round of drinks, the bartender came to our table and asked for our ID's. completely fine, we gave them out and she starts getting suspicious about one of my friends ID (the bartender said because it's from PA it might be fake). we tried to get other drinks and they refused to serve us. I do understand they are in all their right to do it, but kind of shitty that after being here plenty of times, and being well over 21 we are refused service. Get a real scanner instead of just using a little UV light, or properly train your bouncers/bartenders to review IDs... or whatever, we are just taking our business elsewhere. Not worth the argument for drinks you can make at home

    A somewhat disappointing corned beef hash. Asked if their "sliced corn beef" was fresh, I got "yes". It's sandwich-style (processed).

They have a great selection of burgers and hot dogs with options to customize your bun, toppings, and doneness. We ordered two classic cheeseburgers on brioche rolls and split an order of the loaded fries. The food quality was great! The ingredients were fresh and much better than you would get at a chain restaurant. The loaded fries were filling and delicious too! I also appreciated that my well-done burger was juicy, but wasn't greasy. My husband and I will definitely be back the next time we're craving a quality burger and fries!

And we needed something quick as traveling with a baby equals time crunch. So let's get to it. There's a small parking lot and seating inside and out (picnic style tables). I got sliders and my significant other got a personalized burger. In addition we also got chili cheese fries and tater tots. We had to get this to go so I was quite happy with the temperature and taste when we got home. Surprisingly all the food maintained its quality and warmth on a 20 min ride. We both really enjoyed the burgers and I was surprised by the sliders. Most sliders don't fill me and I feel it's always missing something. These mini burgers were super filling and felt like I didn't have to miss eating a big burger. We both enjoyed our sides. I think my significant other heated up the fries later in the evening and said it was still pretty good. I myself reheated my one mini burger I had left and it still tasted like I just got it recently. Hoping to visit again and try more items when I can.

We got the RB#2. Two sandwiches with fries. One medium and one Hot. The Hot is like medium compared to other places. The medium is just a normal chicken in my opinion. The size of the chicken is a bit smaller also in comparison and their fries are normal crinkle fries. I also did not like their slaws. It is cut so small that they falls out when eating the sandwich. However, they do have a good variety of sauces. There are limited seating and night we were there it was pretty full. It is probably a good place to go if you live around there and want to get a quick bite. Maybe I will go back and try the Halal Guys style #1.
