Willow in Arlington does a nice Thanksgiving meal. Not sure how it would be for kids. They have an appetizer buffet. You choose and entrée. There is also a dessert buffet. We have done it twice and enjoyed it.

Inn at Little washington

Gilbert's in McLean has full service.

Trummers on Main

Blue duck tavern.

Another vote for Clydes group. We've done Clyde's on Preserve Parkway in Rockville. I'm sure the Tysons location would be similar. Excellent, traditional fare. Good value, nice venue and good food!! Not edgy, not modern, just good old traditional Thanksgiving without the sweet potatoes and marshmallows or green bean and mushroom soup casserole thank God.

We have done Clyde's in Tysons for Thanksgiving in the past. Lots of families. Traditional turkey dinner plus other options as well.

A lot of hotel restaurants serve Thanksgiving dinner.

Not quite Falls Church, but when our DD was 3 months we went to Chef Geoff's in Tysons. The food was good and it was full of families - we were a party of three, but most were much larger tables. There were a number of other babies and young children there as well.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a family friendly restaurant that will serve Thanksgiving dinner on Thanksgiving itself?
Specifically, in Falls Church or Arlington? I do not think we have the bandwith to host a 'traditional' multi-dish, complex dinner this year given our young family. Thanks!
