Best Restaurants for Foodies in McLean

Had the family meal for 5. Quite the abundance of food. More than enough to satisfy all 5 hungry people. Very conscientious of people's food sensitivities. All food was fresh and recipes were modified to make gluten and or dairy free if possible. Even told of possible cross contamination if that was a concern. The flavors are great and very refreshing. Highly recommended. The restaurant was completely filled. Only recommendation is to bring serving utensiles with the food being served family style so you don't have to wait to pass the dishes around.

We ordered the tasting menu with wine pairing- what an amazing experience! Food was gorgeous to look at and even more delicious. Highly recommend!!

This is our 2nd year trying the Christmas Buffet..all I can say is "we are another a happy couple (my husband and me). " Founding Farmers did not disappoint. The food is outstanding!!! Over 50 options to choose from. My one suggestions is make available "well done" red meat options. Everyone does not like to see blood draining from their food.

For a treat to yourself go to Claudio's Table, a little pricey as everything down to the bread is a la carte...however, it is excellent! My short ribs were perfect and my mom's branzino was grilled to a moist and delectable turn....be ready to spend >$100 for two and save room for dessert.

First time at this restaurant-located in a small and crowded strip mall (parking was a bit of a challenge), we weren’t sure what to expect. The restaurant is also relatively small with two sections, one a few steps down from the other. About 60 percent of tables were filled. The interior could use a refresh, but the wine (excellent) and meals were very good. My husband and I shared a Caesar salad - very fresh and well dressed - and two had the filet and frites, the other two the salmon almond (also excellent) and the scallops. Everyone enjoyed their meal and started that they would come back. It’s a bit of a neighborhood gem.
