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.

Virginia Kitchen is our go-to breakfast spot whenever we're in the Herndon area. It's a classic…read morefast-turn diner with generous portions, great service, and reasonable prices. 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.

When we arrived around 10:30am, there were already a few diners. We chose our meals and headed to the bar, Nectar, to place our order. Even then, we were curious about how good the food would actually be. Then the food arrived. Wow, we were so happy we gave it a shot. The quality of the biscuit sandwich was fantastic. I really appreciated that their biscuit was homemade. It was buttery and blended perfectly with the other ingredients. The only suggestion I have is to make the egg yolk runny, as the biscuit can be a bit dry at times. I can't wait to come back and try other vendors, but I definitely want to return for another biscuit next time!

Known for its breakfast favorites like omelets, avocado toast, and healthy juices, and for quick, friendly service, it is a popular spot for breakfast, brunch, and lunch, serving tasty, hearty, and healthier choices. We tried several dishes, all of which were excellent, and we highly recommend: The Strawberry Tres Leches French Toast is a seasonal specialty that combines classic French toast with a Hispanic dessert. It features thick slices of challah soaked in rich custard, topped with fresh strawberries, dulce de leche, whipped cream, and gingerbread cookie crumbs. This sweet, indulgent brunch treat is great for sharing and highly recommended. The Elevated Egg Sandwich is a hearty breakfast option with an over-easy egg, Gruyère cheese, smashed avocado, lemon-dressed arugula, and mayonnaise on a brioche bun. It's fresh, creamy, savory, with bacon adding crunch and flavor. First Watch's Avocado Toast features toasted whole-grain bread topped with smashed avocado, olive oil, lemon, and Maldon salt, served with two cage-free eggs for a satisfying start. Kale Tonic is a refreshing, nutrient-packed green juice made with kale, Fuji apple, English cucumber, and lemon. It offers a crisp, balanced, and slightly sweet flavor, making it an ideal choice for health-conscious diners.

I had at the $14 half and half lunch deal, which got me a half Monterey Jack and turkey melt sammie and a half avocado Cobb salad. I was going to eat half of this but it was so good that I ate the entire thing. The sandwich on brioche bread was really great. I really liked the sweet bread that the ham and cheese was on. Service (5/5): They were so nice here - service is great! Ambiance (3/5): It is a nice upscale diner, so the ambiance was not great. I didn't mind it, but it wasn't a fancy place.
