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 Service was adequate, but the upscale ambiance felt outdated and in need of upgrades.
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.
We ordered cheeseburgers and fries for my family of 6 (2 adults, 4 kids under 13). I told my husband to pick a place that had “decent burgers, not fast food burgers.” I will say they were cooked very well (as in, medium rare as requested) and were tasty. But the slice of cheese was…pathetic. The fries were cold (burgers and other food wasn’t and it wasn’t a long drive home). The “kids burgers” were TINY. They were thick, but otherwise the size of a single slider – no more than 2oz; with a handful of fries, and for TEN DOLLARS. I guess in a fancy restaurant a burger would be, and we got carry-out. But damn…$100 for 6 burgers. We also ordered “kids lemonade” which has…mint leaves?? Enough of them to throw off the taste, and I don’t know who would assume that’s something kids would want.
Ultimately, tasty, quality food compared to a counter service burger joint, but extremely overpriced.

What a pleasant surprise! Our visit to The Capital Burger in Reston turned into one of those unexpectedly great days — the kind you wish you could bottle up.
From the moment we walked in, the service was on point. Shoutout to Veronica, our waitress — she was kind, attentive, and made us feel like VIPs. That kind of hospitality is rare these days, and it really elevated the whole experience.
Now let’s talk food: the burger was absolutely delicious, juicy and cooked to perfection. But what blew us away? The veggie burger — hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. Rich in flavor, well-balanced, and satisfying in a way most veggie options aren’t. Even the kids were impressed, and that’s saying something.
The atmosphere was classy yet welcoming — perfect for families, friends, or even a casual date. And the best part? The location. After lunch, we didn’t just head home — we stuck around. The area is packed with fun: there’s space for kids to run around, play soccer, even splash in the pool if you’re staying nearby. You can really make a whole afternoon of it.
This wasn’t just a meal, it was a mini getaway. We’ll definitely be back.
