This continuously evolving section of Fairfax County keeps attracting new restaurants as mixed use developments including Avenir Place, Halstead Square, and Mosaic District grow into their own.
Over the past four years, destinations including Neighborhood Restaurant Group's bar, B-Side, diner favorite Ted's Bulletin, and healthy cafe True Food Kitchen have all found their place in the neighborhood. Next up: a second location of D.C. bar The Black Squirrel is set to open in mid-June.
