I'm sort of shocked by all the recommendations for Seasons 52. I've been to the Tysons mall location several times and except for a yummy flat bread appetizer, I've been underwhelmed. What do all get that you like so much?

It's on Boone Blvd across the side street (not Rte 7) from Tiffany's.

It's in the space where Chutzpah Deli used to be.

Bazin's, Alegria, Nostos, or Sweet Ginger.

Gawd, not Cafe Renaissance! Thinks it's fancy and yet everything on the menu is covered in the same boring brown madeira-type sauce...

Bazin's or Alegria in Vienna
Seasons 52 in Tysons (if you can get past being in the mall)
Wine bar (I forget its name) and then dinner at Jackson's in Reston Town Center

Alegria, right next to Bazin's, on Church Street in Vienna

+1 for Nostos and Maple Ave (the latter is SUPER TINY so don't recommend more than 4 people in one group).
A bit outside Tyson's but 2941 in Falls Church is very nice although pricey.
Love the old Italian charm at Ristorante Bonaroti.

Definitely Nostos! We love that place and it's great for multiple couples.

I do not suggest Cafe Renaissance or Maple Ave or Mon Ami or Chef Geoff's. I've never tried Seasons 52. PassionFish is ok.

too many little kids at chef geoffs,note a good date night place

Chef Geoff Tysons.

Nostos (Tysons), Maple Ave (Vienna), Cafe Renaissance (Vienna)
Seasons 52 (Tysons)
PassionFish, Mon Ami Gabi (Reston)

Newly empty nesting couples looking for a restaurant for dinner. Lively atmosphere is good, but need mixed age groups. Will pay for quality but not looking to pay just to be at the "in" place to be. Most any type of food would be acceptable. Thanks!
