Not Your Average Joe's Reston

I come here often enough when I 'm looking a solid restaurant, good location and free/easy parking, reliable service, nice cocktail options, with a regular and seasonal menu that accommodates most of my friends ' varied dietary needs (GF, vegetarian, pescatarian, etc. . It does not disappoint. We had a painkiller and a watermelon cucumber margarita as our cocktail options. Both are very good. My margarita had a little too much ice and not enough drink IMO, and when I ask for a salted rim can you salt the whole thing rather than one square inch of it? They give you delicious focaccia bread over a cheese/red pepper flaked dipping oil that 's to die for. Be careful because it 's so easy to fill...

Upsides? Great lunch spot love the seasonal menu especially the butternut squash/Brussel sprout flatbread. Easy parking. Broad menu. Our waiter Mason even convinced the manager to oblige a small off menu request. Food here is reliably yummy. Love the welcome bread cone and cheesy olive oil spread. Downsides? They always seem a little under staffed at lunch service is always a tad slow. The iced tea refill was ice less, room temperature and weak. There were crumbs on the seats of our booth when we arrived. Those little things kicked down a 5 star to a 4 star. But I am a repeat customer and will continue to come back.

Bar area looks good and well stocked. Food is ok (average) but a bit pricey for what you get. Service was good.
