Dining at Town Center - Big Bowl

Generally I prefer to patronize Family-Owned dining establishments although the days of Mom & Pop Restaurants have been numbered by all the regional and national chains. Going out for a meal is often more about ambiance and atmosphere than just the meal itself ... and I'm really pleased with the dining choices offered at Reston Town Center.

While I have a fond appreciation for the art deco exterior architecture and the interior design and decor of the Town Center restaurants, I've also been pleased by the quality of the food and the fair pricing. Big Bowl at Town Center has become one of my family favorites for dining out. We have probably averaged 10-12 dining visits per year since it opened. The Chinese & Thai cuisine is very good, the portions are man-sized and the cost is moderate. As long as your entourage likes Asian-style food their will be something on the menu to satify everyone! I've had good luck with requesting adjustments to the spice level to suit my "some like it hot" taste.

Somehow driving down a highway and pulling into a strip shopping center to patronize a restaurant stuck between a grocery store and a gas station just does not provide me with much of an experience other than the meal itself. There is no romance, no memories and no personal experience to add extra value. Dining at Town Center is more like an occaision or an event!
