Lovely brunch. Everything is farm fresh and delicious. Our favorites were the french toast, eggs, hash browns, cinnamon rolls and chocolate chip cookies. Found something different everytime we went up to the buffet. Stephen our server was amazing too. Overall had a ball. Kids loved everything especially the chicken. We will definitely be back.

Always enjoy this establishment when I'm in town visiting. Food and service always great. Definitely worth the wait because you will wait sometimes up to an hour if you don't have reservations. They take pride in making alot of food and condiments from scratch. Definitely suggest anyone who has not been here to try it and thank me later. Can't wait to revisit.

Overall, this visit was a disappointment. It was saved from being considered a travesty, solely due to the dessert. But let's talk about things in order, shall we? Starter. We had the Brie Farm Bread. It was passable, nothing inherently wrong in taste. The size of the Brie compared to the overall size of the slice of bread was laughable. Overall, all I could taste was the bread, the apple, and the caramel. Brie? I barely knew ye. Entree. I had the special of the day - the Swordfish. This dish was the true travesty of the evening. The dish contained swordfish, mashed potatoes, and succotash. First, the swordfish tasted like burning rubber and had an unpleasant wet taste. It was far beyond the mild, slightly sweet taste a swordfish should have. The sauce covering the swordfish only compounded the error and made the swordfish inedible. Second, the mashed potatoes were edible and bland. Let's just day that salt goes a long way. Third, the succotash was bright and brought a visual appeal to the dish. It also brought an oily sheen and a second type of potatoes - diced potatoes. Finally, the concept of this dish was confusing. Why potatoes two ways? It is best to make a simpler dish well, then a complex dish badly. This was not a dish made well. Dessert. I had death by chocolate. Chocolate ice cream, chocolate fudge, and brownie crumbles. It was a delight. This dish elevated the meal from an absolute travesty to just a strong disappointment. Service: Better wait times, but slightly lackluster service. Our server also forgot a component of my companion's meal. However, he was new, so I'm sure service will improve in the future. Also, the front of house aspect is lacking in that our server did not seem to understand the concept of the dish when I asked. When I asked if he could ask the chef, he offered the manager instead. Note for the manager: Make sure the servers are told the concepts behind the specials.

I was honestly surprised with the food and cocktail after seeing the extensive menu. Definitely gave me cheesecake factory vibes. But! To my surprise it was quite good. We had the kettle corn (which is huge and delicious) and dates to start and they were quite good. My Manhattan was quite tasty and classic. Then for my meal, the French dip, was pretty good. Not the best I've had, a bit chewy, but it was very good.

Founding farmers is known for its brunch, drinks and various dinner options. But it's desert is not appreciated enough. Their donuts, pies, cheesecake, chocolate and ice creams are all great. I had one of the best carrot cake here. Do leave some space to end with desert.

This is is such a cute establishment (with nice outdoor seating). The food was okay. There was a bit of confusion with the menu — I thought we were able to order from the menu I saw online, but brunch is actually buffet style - ONLY (which we were unaware of). Either way, I wasn’t much of a fan (especially with COVID) — everything was self-serve and had no barriers between people and the food. We even found a hair in my boyfriend’s food. However, we did get our food for free because of this, so that was nice. The servers and environment was nice, the food was just a little bland (the chicken, grits, deviled eggs and scrambled eggs). My favorite dishes were the bacon, French toast, cinnamon roll, and chicken jambalaya). I would go back to try their regular menu, but I don’t think I’ll be back for brunch.

It is a great place, atmosphere, lots of day light, many seating options, outdoor is comfortable and lovely too.Staff is really friendly. Good portion and taste in food. Went for brunch and loved it, Definitely coming back to try other items on the menu. Thank you guys for the good work and tasty food.

This was my first time with Founding Farmers and I’m so glad I went! I went for dinner on a Wednesday night. Jon B was our server and he was such a joy, he was very accommodating and gave great recommendations. His personality was inviting and he attentive and knowledgeable in the menu and recommendations. I had the farmer’s platter and it was huge, it was enough for two people. I was torn between the Mac&cheese or potatoes and Jon recommended the Mac and cheese (which was phenomenal) I even ordered more on the side to take home. I’ll definitely be returning to this location for brunch! Thank you to the restaurant and Jon B for making my experience a great one.

Great restaurant with great service. Owned by farmers using fresh seasonal products using a farm to table concept. Food was good, service great and the atmosphere modern. Enjoyed the experience and the food was good, all around. Nothing exceptional but everything was good. Desert portions are large and should really be shared.

Good food tasted very fresh. Lot of choices. We preferred to order Al-a-carte than the brunch buffet. The farmer's salad side with the burger was extremely refreshing and tasted delicious. I am going to order that as my full meal next time. Our server spilled a lot of soup in plate while serving grilled cheese with tomato soup but otherwise the service was very good. The avacado and tomato sandwich tasted amazing. We didnt have as high hopes when we ordered but it proved us wrong. The spicy fried chicken sandwich was mildly spicy and tasted well. Milkshakes were good but at $9.50+tax, they feel overpriced. Overall good food, good service, good atmosphere and good location. There is a lot of sitting inside and outside.

The homemade ravioli head shells in each one, it had a really good flavor. However, not only was I scared to continue eating, I was concerned there would be a larger part I would choke on. Our server was absent when the restaurant did not appear busy, there could have been something else going on. She was cordial but I probably wouldn't eat here again.

An absolute must go for delicious food. This unique restaurant offers hand crafted sodas, with almost 90% of the menu is house-made. We received wonderful service from our very informative and friendly server. Don't feel overwhelmed by the many options offered, Just politely ask, and servers would be more than happy to provide suggestions. My hot-honey crispy chicken was delicious came with cheddar grits. I finished my meal with the all-American dessert apple pie and ice cream.

A must try for fresh, delicious food. From the moment we walked in, we knew it would be a different experience. We were greeted with a warm welcome and our server was excellent and attentive. She gave recommendations when asked and can't overlook the fact that everything is made fresh in house. Even the sweet tea was different. My only issue was the coldslaw lacked flavor but everything else made up for it. I highly recommend visiting anytime as they are open everyday.

The restaurant came highly recommended and the selection and quality of the meal did not disappoint… Service was mediocre and the food was on the expensive side, however, it was fresh, hot, and excellent. If price is not an issue for you, I would definitely try out their delicious offerings. 4.5 stars

The salmon was unbelievably delicious! We had a large party and order many apps. The corn bread was good and so were the fried green tomatoes. Excellent lemon drop martini!

I sat with a large party on Tuesday night and experienced very slow service (it wasn't busy at all) and subpar food. I had the Texas BBQ brisket sandwich with coleslaw. There was hardly any meat for the price, the flavor was non-existent, and the coleslaw was grossly uninspiring. The food took a long time to come out and wasn't hot either. This place is too big for quality service and reasonable prices.

My second time coming the chain first time was in DC. This time I visited the Reston location. The server was great I ordered, the crab dip which was tasty, and the hot honey chicken. The chicken was crispy and bland the sides were absolutely cold. The server tried to fix the problem, the fix was hot but not appetizing. The green beans were mushy and the grits were lumpy and too much Parmesan. The server apologized over and over I accepted her apology and explained that it’s not her fault, the manager didn’t even come to address the situation. Made me feel unappreciated.

The bacon egg and cheese burrito is amazing! Very filling and has a great flavor! I get the burrito every time I come here and it never disappoints! the salsa they serve with it is delicious as well. next time you come here you should try the burrito if you haven’t. Iced coffee with vanilla and vanilla donut were amazing too!

Food (brunch) was delicious! Also the atmosphere was great, we were there for several hours and no one rushed us out! Will definitely go back again. We had drinks, so our bill was higher than normal. Brunch is roughly $29.99 per person before taxes etc.

Boutique chain restaurant in the DC Area. This is a place to come with an appetite, as the portions are huge. Like take a nap afterwards huge. The service was very good but not attentive as I had to ask twice until my order was correct. And I only had breakfast. One pro tip...order the Jefferson Donut - it is impressive.

Wow wow wow , is all I can say . We stopped here after searching for a nice place to get brunch and let me tell you this will be our new favorite place! The food , drinks & service were incredible. So glad to have found a place with this type of quality & great atmosphere. If you haven’t tried this place yet I highly recommend!

Atmosphere was nice. Waiter was extremely professional. The food was mediocre honestly. Got the Brisket Sandwhich and the platter. Just tasted bland. The Fried Chicken was the only thing we found decent.

We went for a special occasion and the first time at this location. The ambiance was nice and it wasn't noisy. Our service staff was great. Our food was nice. It came out hot and how we ordered the meat cooked. Desserts were yummy.

The best founding farmer ever! The interior design is so awesome and original, the service is really from another world, and of course the food is great

I loved the atmosphere and our waitress! She was great and explained everything I needed to make my choice cause there are so many amazing food on the menu. I will definitely go again!

This restaurant is located close to the Wiehle-Reston metro station and offers excellent service in a pleasant environment. My daughter particularly enjoyed the spinach dip served with chips. Although my spicy chicken dish was decent, it was deep-fried and not something I would order again, as I prefer to avoid fried foods. However, I'm sure that others would enjoy it. The restaurant is situated in a lovely area and is definitely worth trying. Additionally, there is a Tesla Supercharger located in the same building.

This is one place my wife loves to go to. We both agree the food and atmosphere are great. I also love that parking is validated. Servers are attentive and welcoming, making for a great experience. I look to try different things so I can share, and find favorites. This last trip I had the French dip and my wife had the Reuben; both were great. My wife really likes this Founding Farmers so we tend to go here. There's a paid parking garage but the restaurant validates so no issues. Everyone is nice and the restaurant is clean and comfortable. The service and food are consistently good. This time we went very green and healthy, with no disappointment. I tried the Herb chicken breast while my wife had the quinoa bowl. Both were surprisingly good.

First time there with a two-for: both lunch and picking up pre-made sides for Thanksgiving. The lunch was really enjoyable. Space is large and decorated in a modern yet soothing style. Large bar. Several good beers on tap. Had one of their burgers (with bacon and an onion jam) which was outstanding. Loved that you could pick from a bunch of sides beyond fries w/o an uncharge - I got their Brussels Sprouts salad which was excellent. Both the burger and the salad had that little extra something in terms of ingredients, seasoning and prep that you don't find every day in the fast casual space. Service was solid. Bartender recommended the Happy Hour which has some really good deals on both food and drinks - I plan to return next week to check it out. Thanksgiving sides had to be picked up off-site (close by) and the area was well marked and well staffed. Order was correct. Butternut squash soup and cranberry dressing were outstanding and the cornbread stuffing was among the best I've ever had. Other sides (green beans, Mac & Cheese) were fine but not mind-blowing. We did our own entree & dessert. Thought all the sides were well portioned and decently priced. I live in Reston Town Center and have never gone into this area previously (by the Google Building at Wiehle) given all the construction, barricades and flashing lights. But once I found the parking garage, I found it large and with lots of spaces. Founding Farmers validates. Would definitely return.

Solid 3.5 experience. I've been before and experience a 4. mostly very good food but not always consistent. Office year end dinner party of 12. Appetizers were good, devilled eggs, great cheddar biscuits and cornbread skillet, good bacon dates but the entrees were mixed. The trout was wonderful, salmon average, fried chicken great, pasta dish basic, steak gristly, green beans sides unseasoned. It was a loud busy night with average service which for a large group these days is actually good. The bathroom was pretty dirty though. On busy nights, they probably need to be cleaned a bit more often.

We had a team outing here , to start with the staff was really good and polite. Overall the ambience atmosphere everything is really good. They have ample amount of seating can get crowded on the weekends and especially Fridays. The food was definitely not the best southern fried chicken was really bad super dry not worth at all. Overall food was mediocre considering the price point. May be some other dishes might be good but what we had was just average.

Recently had a late lunch at Founding Farmers Reston Station at the suggestion of our Server, Susan I had the Chicken Pot Pie. It was delicious, the service was fabulous as well as the ambiance! Can’t wait to visit again so much that we booked a table for the President’s Day buffet, 2/19! Yummy!!
