    We've always been fond of Ruth Chris chain restaurants, but this one in Reston Town Center is the newest and our favorite. Same good food and service, but the ambience is great and parking is convenient at the free retail garage just around the corner. Of course, valet parking is also available. It's our go-to restaurant for special occasions. Never been disappointed here.

    I had the crab cakes. They were just so-so (I’ve had better on the Eastern Shore), and small. My guest had the grilled swordfish, it was very good. We had the spring roll appetizer, also very good with a tasty crunch.
