Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Herndon

Had brunch with six friends at Cooper’s Hawk today. It was my first time there, and the whole experience was lovely. Our server, Destiny, was very attentive and accommodating, and the food was great. I shared two entrees (chilaquiles and avocado toast) with another person, and both were excellent. Others around the table also enjoyed their food, including a slice of key lime pie. I did not try the pie, instead having the truffle of the month, delicious dark chocolate and peppermint. Lots of menu choices for vegetarians! As a bonus, the restaurant is very close to Next Stop Theatre, where we went to a fabulous Shawshank Redemption matinee. And one last comment - Destiny kept my iced tea glass full at all times, without my having to ask, which is one of the most important things to me at a restaurant, whether it’s iced tea or water - a personal quirk, I guess…

The food was excellent ad always. The veal was very tender. My sisters enjoyed the branzino- another great choice

Go every year for Thanksgiving we had Prime Rib,& Salmon with all the fixings Brought a Turkey dinner home for Friday Leftovers. Choose your main course & Pie deserts selections on menu every meal comes with stuffing potatoes cranberry sweet potato ect. Will be back next Thanksgiving

Exceptional turkey dinner special Morton’s manager and chef planned. The servings were all just the right amount and incredible tasty. Even though Morton’s was holiday busy, the service by the staff and our server Eddie was incredible as always.

Long time lover of this restaurant. We now live in San Diego, and every time we visit our families in Virginia we dine here. Daniel was outstanding and fun to talk with. I always get the crispy flounder which is exotic and super flavorful. It is a whole fish which you will have to navigate, but so worth it. Get the sauced on the side so you can control the heat. The oysters were delicious last night too. Save room for the key lime pie. Only minor suggestion is to serve the after drinks before the dessert. We will see you again on our next trip East.
