After living in this area since college (over 20 years!), I cannot believe I've never been to this gem of an establishment... Admittedly my restaurant standards are pretty high and this place wowed me on all levels. I was greeted promptly, seated immediately, and offered a drink all within 2 minutes of walking in the door. The menu offerings excited me as much as the amazing lake views. Every single staff member was highly attentive which was really impressive compared to most places I visit. I'm always searching for new brunch spots and this place did not disappoint -- everything we ordered was delish!! I cannot wait to bring friends back and try even more items from the menu. Until next time, bravo to your top notch team! read more

Delish food and beautiful presentation! Great spot for a lunch or brunch and lots of TVs to watch the game.

Great food in a fun atmosphere. The spare rib ragu I had was outstanding... tender & delicious. Also enjoyed really fresh oysters.

We used to love coming here. It was always a treat. Man, the food and service has gone downhill. The oysters were poorly shucked, and had clearly been rinsed off after shucking - there wasn't any brine or juice. So they tasted flavorless. The Fresh Catch Special, seafood risotto that the server said had chunks of salmon and was cooked in salmon broth was actually a giant, gelatinous blob of pesto-oey rice with overcooked shrimp and shellfish (I think clams) and lots of broken shells... but no salmon that I could see. One bite and we sent it back. The fries were hot, perfectly spiced and delicious. The salad and cassoulet were both meh. They used to do an amazing duck cassoulet....the current pork one doesn't hold a candle to it. Cocktails were watered down. It also took a long time for them to come out. Service was slow and sporadic. Kitchen runners were on top of things, but servers seemed weeded or just discombobulated. Couldn't tell. Waited 15m to place a drink / appetizer order. Drinks came after we were done with the appetizer. Waited another 20 min to place a dinner order. I flagged one server down to take away my special dish and bring me a menu - but had to wait another 10m before anyone came by to take my new order....which wasn't expedited. So my dinner companion finished their meal about 20m ahead of me finishing mine. Getting the check took a while as well. It was a beautiful night with a great view of the lake, so that helped quite a bit. read more

Food was just ok this time and service below average. I wish they'd be more consistent.

The food, service, and atmosphere was great! What not to luv? It's a great place for a nice date. It's especially nice during nice weather when they open up the outdoor deck dining. read more

Great little spot. I had talleggio cream crostini. Soo good Cobb salad was good. Ranch dressing thick and good. Other enjoyed their meals as well. Short rib ragu and crab bisque. Outside seating available with a time limit of 1.5 hours. Had live music but didn't stay for that. Would go back. read more

We had dinner on Thursday. Called to make a reservation when we saw that there were no reservations available. Not a problem. We were able to make one. Dinner was great! Visiting from the West Coast. George was our waiter and answered our questions about which dishes would be better. Live music was a plus. Had a fun time!! Purchased merchandise for our kids. Made a suggestion to have Red as an added choice of merchandise. Will be back the next time in town. read more

Solid restaurant with nice views. Friendly service. XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX read more

Great spot! Had the special room for a large group and the food was great! Staff took good care of us.

This was a pretty heavy salad, since it a burrata cheese plus some small pieces of roasted squash. It was good, but I think more squash would've make this a lot easier to eat. Additionally, this could be because I like my burrata melty, but I recommend putting there cheese in hot water to melt the stracciatella and cream in the inside but then immediately dunking it it ice water so the outside is cold. This would have made the salad a LOT tastier. Also, not very much squash. Overall, it was good, but definitely on the pricey side ($16 I think) read more

Red's Table - Burrata & Squash Salad - New American Near Me - Reston, Virginia

The food was delicious and service outstanding. The only downside was a very loud party at the table adjacent to ours, which made normal conversation impossible at our table. It was a larger group of 10-12 people who should have been given a back room or more discreet location. read more

We had dinner here tonight. Food - burgers. They were above average but not great.. nothing special. $17 Calamari- average, a little greasy Crab bisque - pretty good Service - Everyone except our waitress was great. She just walked up to our table without saying hello or welcome NOTHING. Just 'ready to order?' She's the older waitress. She never came back to check on us during the meal. Just came back at the very end. Thank goodness other people brought us our food and even check. She definitely killed the mood. Ambiance - good. A lot of people and good energy in the restaurant. read more

This was the perfect spot. The view was lovely, staff attentive and happy, and food delicious! It was a fun find on a beautiful fall day.

This is where we bring guests to our new home for a new dinner. This is a local staple with delicious food, local drink options, prompt service and a beautiful patio for enjoying a sunny day looking over the lake. This is one of my favorite places to bring people from out-of-town. read more

It's been a while since we returned... couple of reasons prevented us. Not a fan of metal chairs either in terms of sitting on them or listening to the noise as folks scrape them across the floor as they get up and down. But hubby wanted a Rueben and we figured they gave a house corned beef so we would come in for lunch Let's talk about good first... my maple siracha wings were excellent... Fries served as the side with the Rueben were excellent... I do love home made fries... where things were a serious miss was the rueben. First the bread was burnt around the edges so hubby opted to not eat but to just enjoy the insides... his second observation was the sauerkraut isn't sauerkraut... as it's not very sour... his comment more like half sour... as for the corned beef he felt like part of it was just crumbles... small pieces... but he said the taste was good... but overall as a Rueben not one he cared for at all. Now at this point I would have rated them a three but backing up... while we knew coming in what we wanted the server pointed out the business mans lunch which is a appetizer a main and a non alcoholic drink but only the options listed... ohhhh cool I thought... both the items we want are there... so we asked if we could do that but served together as that's what he wanted... but I got the... ohhh we aren't supposed to do that... I'm not going to argue so we still ordered but it just bugged me in the end... a option for both with a drink st $20 instead of the $28 without a drink we ended up paying for... the pricing makes a difference as we consider our future lunch options going forward and how things fit in the budget... so if they had let us more frequent visits could be planned for So while I adore the wings and fries... this visit just wasn't worth doing a repeat at least for us.... read more

I love going to Red's Table. It's a great neighborhood restaurant and the food is quite good. They bend over backwards to keep you happy. The mussels are delicious and the view of the lake is relaxing. read more

Nice servers if I do say so myself, pretty radical lakeside view as well and the food is delectable

What a find! I don't live in Reston but was meeting some friends for brunch on Sunday. Well worth coming back in the near future as it was easy to get to (cute shopping center) and so charming when we walked in, just an overall very good vibe. It was sophisticated and yet friendly. We had a wonderful waiter (wish I could remember his name) but he was that perfect mix of friendly but also wasn't all over us and interrupting the conversation multiple times like I find in so many restaurants of late. I would have never tried the mushroom and rolled oat burger without a friend suggesting as a good vegetarian option. It was FABULOUS. Loved the goat and beet salad as well. Seats were not too close together so we had privacy and didn't feel as though it was too loud. Even though we were indoors on a very chilly day, seeing the lake from our table made us feel we were on vacation! So nice to find a family friendly restaurant that is not a chain and has staff that clearly care about your meal and experience. Keep up the good work, I'm coming back. read more

The food was yummy and the scenery is always serene. I would invite anyone to go and sit on the outside patio.

I had crabcake Benedict & a Bloody Mary. The restaurant is quite clean & the temperature was great. The view of the lake was beautiful. Our server was swift & attentive! Would recommend!! read more

If you are looking for a venue to sponsor 20 or so guests and want to be sure that everything goes exceptionally well, please check out Red's Table first! On November 8th, this venue hosted a dinner event for me, which, without exception, was executed flawlessly. The on-duty manager (Ian) went out of his way to handle any last-minute request which I presented. Most commendable was the fact that the SOLE wait staff member assigned to our function, not only precisely handled beverage, appetizer and entrees ordered, but also expertly presented individual checks for each guest at the end of the evening. Exceptional service and outstanding menu choices made for a wonderful evening at Red's Table. This establishment ranks high on my list as to how a venue should handle its customers...professionally and courteously. I was exceptionally pleased with having selected Red's Table to host this event. read more

Red's Table - Chicken Wings (left maple siracha/ right buffalo) - New American Near Me - Reston, Virginia

I was expecting the food to be better! My salad was not the best one but it was nice to eat looking at the lake. The service is ok.

I ordered wings, a drink which they forgot a salad and a cheeseburger with delivery it was over $90! I ate two wings and had to stop because there was a nice roach covered in wing sauce - so everything else got thrown in the trash. I did not call the restaurant because I know there's no way to prove it since the food was delivered but either way that is my review. read more

I'll be back for something different. I had the fish and chips, but there was nothing really great to call home about. It was Friday night, and they had a musical guest there, so it was very noisy. read more

Great restaurant with awesome outdoor patio seating near the water. Raw bar was the highlight of my meal

We went for a weekday lunch. What a nice surprise! The food was very good, the atmosphere was also quite nice. We'll come again! Lots of options but do t shy away from the crab cakes! read more

Awesome local restaurant & bar. The waiters are attentive and helpful with a full knowledge of the menu and the food is consistently good and well prepared and presented. Hope the place stays like it is for many years to come. Always happens to us, "where do we want to go for food?" "How about Reds Table? That's a great idea!" read more

We go to Red's Table more than any other restaurant, and it's not even close. The atmosphere is great for families, the food is fantastic, and the patio has an amazing view. read more

Good food and warm service - definitely worth a visit for the view from the patio - and the bar is fun too

I had a lovely lunch here today outside on the patio. The servers were attentive but also gave me space (I dined solo and brought a book) and the food was delicious. I will be thinking about that watermelon and burrata salad for weeks! I also had the turkey sandwich with a cranberry mayo which was very good. Brought home the fried chicken sandwich for my husband and he said it was great. Worth the drive out from Fairfax (a pretty one at that). Can't wait to take my family here! read more

Red's Table - Watermelon and burrata salad - New American Near Me - Reston, Virginia

We love Red's Table, especially for brunch on the weekends with our little ones. The service is great and a very family friendly atmosphere.

We ate here on a perfect Sunday afternoon on the outdoor balcony. The service was so good and friendly. All of the food, we shared a lot of dishes, were well prepared. The crab cake was exactly what I wanted. The local Virginia beer offerings were great. read more

Reds is our go to for date night. Always great service and great food! Great atmosphere for a night out too. And I love their beer menu! The menu seasonally changes so I never get bored. Whether I'm in the mood for a steak, pasta, seafood or a salad, Reds will have something that is delicious. We recently went with friends for brunch and Reds is now my go to for brunch. The food and Bloody Mary were amazing. read more

This is my go-to for a meal in Reston. Firstly, they are located away from the crazy and parking of Town Center. Incredible food, great selection, good service. Cannot say enough great about Red's, a real find. Killer crab cakes! read more

Love everything about this place, the service food and atmosphere are the best. My family and I go here 1x a week!

4 Stars is probably spot on for this place. Only went once, recently, and it was for brunch. The pros: Location View Service The look and feel of the restaurant The "not" pros: The food is good. Don't get me wrong. Just not "mind blowing". Or even great. My home fries were regular potatoes mixed with sweet potatoes, good idea I guess, I'm just not big into sweet potatoes and I don't remember if the description mentioned that fact. My crab cakes were also crunchy, as if the shell was mixed in with the meat. My buddy got the chicken and waffles and he and his wife said the chicken tasted dry. But he said he still really liked it. This place is deserving of 4 Stars. A lot to like, and a little to improve upon perhaps. read more

We came for a one-year birthday lunch. There was a private space which was perfect for such events. We ordered 1. Clam chowder: very good and tasty 2. Reuben sandwich: huge portion, beef was tender and full of flavor 3: crab cake: beautifully served Service was great. We were a large group so it was a little chaotic but great overall. read more

I recently held a private event at Red's table and it was a great experience from start to finish. Communication was always prompt and we got great guidance on the menu. The team at Red's was incredibly helpful the day of the event, really going above and beyond to make the event as easy as possible for us. The food was delicious and we got a number of compliments from others who had never been to the restaurant before. Can't say enough good things about Red's. Great location, great food, friendly staff... Highly recommended! read more
