Coming at the dinner hour you may not get parking in front but there is a nearby parking garage (free).

We decided to share the creamy crab dip with garlic bread. It was pretty tasty! My wife got a burger which is always an easy choice and a solid burger. I went with the king street creole pasta. This is one of my favorite items on the menu. Service wasn't bad but wasn't the best I have experienced at one of their locations. Ambiance is decent as usual. Parking here is the thing that deters me from coming to this location more. I'd mwould recommend this location.

BLUF: Tasty food. Lunch/brunch specials are small portions but the prices are ok. Generally prices…read moreare a high reflecting the horrible economy. Service was attentive but not warm & welcoming. Parking easy. Roomy restaurant & clean. The lunch specials during the work week are worth it if you're watching your budget. Keep in mind portions are pretty tiny, though. These prices reflect costs of dinnertime entrees a few years ago if that's helpful and regular priced entrees now run $18 and higher. So, it's certainly not cheap to eat here if you're not able to benefit from specials. For a chain, though, I was quite surprised by how everything down to the rice & beans had good flavor. Most of the time the rice & beans just hang out on the plate & most people won't eat them. But here, I wanted to eat all of both...mind you....portions are small with specials, so if you don't want to leave hungry, you'll want to eat all of it. It's a good place for groups. Seems like people enjoy the booze. It wasn't very crowded for a weekend lunch. Not sure whether that's because people are saving & eating out less, or whether it was just because it was a late lunch for us. Nonetheless, it was pretty empty for a Saturday afternoon. The mac & cheese looked like instant outa the box stuff rather than a fresh made in-house recipe. Disappointing (and I understand this is for kids, but don't kids deserve freshly made, quality food at a restaurant, too???) Worth the drive? Maybe no more than 10 miles. The food was good & if you have a hankering for this kind of cuisine, it's not a bad choice. Are there more memorable restaurants out there? Certainly, but if you're hungry & in the area, it's worth stopping in. Don't expect artful presentation. I think it's pretty good for groups, too. Booths are tight for 4 adults, though.

The only reason I've ever come down this far into VA is for him. Well, twenty five years later, here I am again, in VA with my sidekick. His fine self is super athletic and doesn't eat bad but he indulges me when it's time to eat breakfast. So off to breakfast we go! I'm a lover of First Watch. I think he's now convinced that he can eat healthy off this menu. Service in VA is great! It's actually better than Maryland to be honest. Ambiance is that of any First Watch. We always get lucky and either come early enough to get a table or simply sit at the bar. This will be in heavy rotation for us because he let's me pick our food spots. Let's get into it! Tri-Fecta® - always over and over! Waffle and over medium eggs with bacon! Coffee always!

I have been coming here at least three times a week since it opened 5 years ago. While the food is…read moregood the service is very poor. A majority of the staff left this location 1.5 years ago for a new store and the service has left as well. Although there are several servers who are excellent, unfortunately there are more who are not. Management is probably worse because she doesn't take definitive action, she'd rather be everyone's best friend. I have sent food back countless times: waffles weren't cooked through, waffles were served cold, and oatmeal looked like mush. Likewise, I have also waited over 1.5 hours for the kitchen to get my food correct. After two screw ups, one with a wrong order and the second served cold, I ate little of what was brought because at that point I wanted to leave. My takeaway is have patience and come early.

I ordered the 8 oz. Angus Country Fried Steak Combo, which came with home fries, two eggs, and a biscuit. Everything was fantastic. The country fried steak was huge, and the biscuit was light, fluffy, and perfect for soaking up my over-medium eggs. My wife went with the Kashmir's Sterling Combo, which included golden-brown French toast, two eggs, hash browns, and bacon. The hash browns and bacon were both perfectly crispy. Jennifer was our server, and she was incredibly friendly. We hadn't visited in a while, and she filled us in on all the improvements since a car crashed into the building back in May 2025. The renovations look great--the new flooring brightens up the dining room, and relocating the check-in counter has made the space feel much more open. We arrived around 10 a.m. on a Wednesday, and it was pleasantly quiet. By 11 a.m., the place was filling up quickly, so our timing couldn't have been better. The bathrooms are a bit cramped but were clean and well maintained. There's also a second dining area with additional tables and booths if the main room gets busy. Just note that there are two entrances on opposite sides of the building, but you'll still need to check in at the host stand to be seated. Overall, Virginia Kitchen consistently delivers good food, friendly service, and excellent value. It'll continue to be one of our favorite breakfast spots in Herndon.

I hate giving these type of reviews to new businesses but if they want to survive in the area given all the Mexican restaurants in a 3 mile radius, they need to step up their game. Cook the rice in broth and seasoning. Put enough meat in tacos and burritos - prices aren't cheap and comparable to a sit down restaurant. Don't fill the burrito with mostly rice - people aren't dumb and can get a better cheaper burrito at Chipotle. Hope they listen and do better.

We ordered the trio dip and it was pricey at $16.00 for a small quantity of queso, guac and salsa with chips. The chips we got were old and stale so we had to ask for new fresh ones. The chicken and vegetable quesadilla was delicious and so was the blackened fish tacos as well as the grilled fish tacos. The street corn was ok. I have had better at other places. The sauces are an awesome addition. Service was also ok. We had to ask for napkins, utensils and an extra disposable paper food tray. I will say the place has potential to improve to become better. Presentation of the food doesn't match the pictures on the outside of the restaurant. However, the cook(s) in the back know how to make tasty food its just a few things are still lacking overall. We paid $80 including tip for 2 adults and 1 child which is expensive for the amount of food we got.
