The Capital Burger

The Capital Burger at Reston Town Center offers gourmet, juicy burgers and a comfortable atmosphere with a large bar and multiple seating options. It provides a steakhouse-like burger experience, with an extensive wine list and a variety of cocktails. We visited for breakfast, and their breakfast burger was excellent—juicy and satisfying. The pancake was simple yet delicious, topped with maple syrup, powdered sugar, and plenty of blueberries. The applewood-smoked bacon and egg on a brioche burger were okay. However, the coffee was disappointing: the cappuccino was too acidic, and the café latte was more like a café au lait with lots of milk. Service was adequate, but the upscale ambiance felt outdated and in need of upgrades.

Really great burger restaurant located in the Hyatt Hotel. They serve flavored pickles for the table instead of bread which is a nice touch. Smoked gouda fries are amazing. Peppers were good and it was a large appetizer with plenty for a table. Chicken sandwich was okay, a little on the thin side so some parts were more crunchy than actual chicken. Atmosphere is nice but the staff sat us next to another occupied table, actually three tables in a row were all seated right next to each other, which I thought was weird since there was plenty of room elsewhere. Right behind us was an entire row of empty tables, so being unnecessarily crowded together was a little odd. The service was fantastic and overall it was a pleasant experience.

For a hotel restaurant, it was good and decently priced for the area. 23$ for a burger is expensive, but it is a hotel in Reston, so kind of expected. Burger was very good. The cheese fries were alright. Probably wouldn't get them again. Wine by the glass was between 11$ and 15$ for most of them. Overall, if you are staying at the hotel and have no real desire to go out after a long day of travel, it is certainly worth a try. I wouldn't particularly go out of my way though to eat here.

Capital Burger is an outstanding spot that delivers on every level—food, atmosphere, and service. I especially love their vegetarian burger, which is hands down the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly balanced in flavor and texture, it’s a dish I keep coming back for. Their fresh lemonade pairs beautifully with it, making the meal even more enjoyable. Another detail that sets them apart is their complimentary pickles—absolutely delicious and a small touch that makes a big difference. The warm atmosphere and attentive staff make each visit a pleasure. Capital Burger has become one of my go-to places, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Went last week with my work colleague and we both got the bacon cheeseburger. The burgers were very greasy but that’s ok. The burger itself had zero flavor other than the taste of meat. The fries were good. Tasted like they came out an air fryer. Not saying that’s a bad thing they were very crisp which was good. I like the attention to detail with the plate being handled to you with the wording Capital Burger facing you. The server was good. The place was clean but I can’t really recommend this place if you’re looking for a really good burger. Everyone taste buds are different but overall the burger was mediocre.
