The enrollments at both McLean HS and Marshall HS are the highest they’ve been in at least 25 years.

What does Marshall HS enrollment have to do with restaurants in McLean?
McLean feeds into three high schools: Langley, McLean, and Marshall. Two of them have the highest enrollments they’ve seen in decades, which contradicts the suggestion McLean is only “aging boomers.”
I think only Pimmit Hills goes to Marshall - and it doesn't count as McLean.
Some of the areas across from Pimmit Hills on the other side of Magarity are in McLean and zoned for Marshall - no detached houses, just townhouses, condos and apartments.
Yep, other side of Magarity, is zipcode 22102 including the Safeway shopping center. All are apartments and multifamily. They are zoned for Marshall.
There are some pockets with single-family houses too. We used to live in one, and it was zoned for Marshall.

Happy enough with the restaurant offerings. Ex: Kazan's, Greek Taverna, Assaggi, Pasa Thai, Capri, Cafe Oggi, Tachibana, Miyagi, J. Gilbert's, Pulcinella's, Amoo's, Ichiban, Dal Grano, Mylos, Masala, El Tio, Lost Dog, Sweet Leaf, Madison Deli, Santini's, Rocco's, McLean Pizza, MFR, Moby Dick, Red Tomato, Subway, Chipotle, Cava, McDonalds. Plus Tysons, Vienna and Falls Church are nearby w/more.
McLean has the most expensive homes, the top schools, the best location. It wouldn't be fair to corner the market on all the best restaurants as well.
McLean needs to redo the chesterbrook shopping area , dump that crappy safeway for a whole foods. Get rid of all Giants and Safeways. Put in Arlington style development with condos
Nope, that's why we have Tysons.

Not nice to talk about your mama.
Oh honey, it's McLean. She was talking about her husband, not her mama. You know how those trophy wives can be!
LOL.

I agree on the safeway, but absolutely not on the Arlington style condos. Are you kidding? That's why people live in McLean- not Arlington. We have mature trees, large lots, etc. Stupid suggestion.

Seriously. Anyone unironically listing “Subway” as one of the culinary stars of McLean has got to be selling something.
