The D.C.-Area Restaurant Openings in October | Eater DC

"Overlooking the covered plaza and seasonal ice rink, this second venture from restaurateur-chef Ram Thapa (of Indochen) brings Indo-Chinese touches like Hakka noodles and weekday lunch specials with build-your-own bowls. The bar program sticks to classics, calling for Mules and Manhattans." - Emily Venezky

Two private dining rooms join a patio for 40, with vibrant, colorful design by SYN Engineer and co-owner Kumar KC on board." - Tierney Plumb

I love Masti! I actually came twice in one week because the food was that good. Everything was so flavorful, fresh, and beautifully served. The drinks were amazing too. The staff is super friendly and the manager is honestly one of the best. I lost my card here last week and when I came back, they still had it waiting for me. That really showed how much they care. The place has such a nice vibe, perfect for date night or just a cozy dinner. Definitely one of my new favorite spots!

Loved my visit to Masti! A perfect blend of Indian and Nepali flavors in a cozy, welcoming setting. I tried jhol momo, papadi chaat, pani puri, dahi bada, wild boar French rack, and the standout Branzino Moilee, which was absolutely delicious. Great food, amazing service, and a chill vibe. Can’t wait to go back!

We were for lunch at Masti in Reston. The appetizer kale chaat, so unbelievable delicious! Main, was butter chicken. Unfortunately it was so delicious we couldn't take a picture, it was gone so fast. Dessert "the cake!!!!" I believe Malai cake - House made amazing cake, super delicious! The food was 100% and we thank Chef Ram and the team for this exceptional experience! If you ever want to feel truly welcomed from a team, that is the place to go!

Our group of 8 visited Masti in Reston on a Wednesday night, and we were all so impressed from start to finish! The atmosphere was super lively and welcoming. The restaurant itself is absolutely stunning! It’s bright, modern, and thoughtfully designed with such a fun and inviting vibe. Honestly, it’s hard to believe this space used to be a Panera Bread. Huge transformation! The food was incredible. You can tell how much care and creativity goes into every dish. Chef Ram has really perfected the art of taking authentic, traditional flavors and modernizing them in a way that still feels true to their roots. The menu had so many tempting options, and the staff were amazing at helping us choose. They were super friendly, attentive, and genuinely excited to share their favorite dishes with us, which made the experience even better. We ended up trying a bunch of different things, and everything we ordered was delicious but some of my personal favorites were the jhol momo, sadeko momo, tandoori salmon, and dhai bara. The desserts were also incredible - rich, flavorful, and the perfect way to end the meal. Every dish was beautifully presented, flavorful, and great for sharing. I also think Masti would be an amazing spot for a birthday dinner or celebration. The space feels lively and fun, the portions are perfect for sharing family-style. Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes! Masti has definitely become one of my new favorite restaurants in Reston. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food, great vibes, and even better hospitality!

I was walking my dog in the town center. Noticed a new place opened. I got vegetable biryani, butter chicken and nan to go. It seems like a fusion type of joint. Usually I have low expectations of those places. I was wrong. Foods amazing. Plain and simple. If I had to offer the slightest criticism the butter chicken is a bit too sweet, but I know I’m the odd person. Most like it like that. It wasn’t too sweet, just more than I like. My daughter loved it as well. Excited to have a good palace. We have 3 great Indian joints in the area now.

The place was amazing. It had great ambiance and equally impressive service. Vijay, who hosted us, did an excellent job and made the experience even better. The appetizers were the highlight of our meal. The Momos, Sev Puri, Chilli Chicken, and Avocado Mango Salad were all flavorful and beautifully presented. The Chicken Kebab was another standout — pairing it with puffed rice was unexpected but worked wonderfully. The Lamb Rogan Josh and Jackfruit Kofta were both good, though not as memorable as the starters. The Biryani didn’t quite meet expectations, and the Naan lacked salt, which was noticeable and took away from the overall taste.

So glad I tried this place! I think it's in the old Panera and the interior is kinda strange and giving more French brasserie vibes than an Indian place. Also the lights are soooo bright! Being that it is a new restaurant the service had some glitches and they were very slow at times. However the food was excellent! The chicken momo were delicious and so light! The butter chicken was smoky and the chicken meat was tender and rich with flavor. I loved the palak paneer and this dish was not the mashed up spinach but was fresh. Just needed more salt. Didn't love the yellow dal or the naan. Both were on the plainer side. I will come back in a few months for sure.

I genuinely have nothing against mom-and-pop restaurants -- some of my favorite meals have come from tiny kitchens -- but this place is nowhere near the standard you'd expect in Reston Town Center. We were a party of six with a reservation, but apparently that just meant we got to wait 10 minutes in the lobby pretending we weren't starving. From the moment we walked in, everything felt chaotic. Staff were darting around with no system, and while everyone was polite, not one person looked like they had ever worked in a restaurant before. We started with the puri puri, which came out as a soggy shell with a little potato, a bit of egg, and a chutney so cold and dull it could've been straight from the fridge. Then came the fish pakora -- or as I now call it, "The Iceberg." I took one bite and the fish inside was frozen solid. The batter outside was warm-ish, the middle was an arctic expedition. No apology, no manager, nothing. They removed it from the bill but never brought a replacement or checked in. When we finally told them to cancel it, they said, "Yeah, we didn't make another one anyway." Perfect. The entrées didn't help. We ordered chicken vindaloo (2), chicken curry (2), chicken biryani, tandoori chicken, and butter chicken -- and they brought two tiny bowls of white rice for six people. When we asked for more, they reacted like we were asking for gold bullion: "Oh... you want more rice? We can bring more. Don't worry." Very weird. We're Middle Eastern and Asian -- spices are not new to us -- but even the mild dishes came out aggressively spicy, overly salty, and strangely lukewarm. Everything tasted like it had been heated unevenly, hot on the outside and warm or cold in the center. At this point I honestly wasn't convinced there was an actual chef back there. Service? Terrible. No refills, no check-ins, and even the soda tasted off. The menu said Coca-Cola, but what we got was some flat, sugary off-brand that tasted like a childhood birthday party gone wrong. Between the cold food, chaotic service, untrained staff, and the mandatory 20% gratuity, this was a full disappointment. And I still don't know why "wild boar" is on an Indian menu

Service was great. Food was amazing. Great momos as well as really good butter chicken. The tandoori chicken is the best I've had in northern Virginia so far. It looked more formal than I actually was. They were very accommodating for us and our two children although I would say it looks like a restaurant better off to leave the kids at home.

Loved the food, ambiance, service, and overall experience here! This restaurant replaces the old Panera that was a staple in RTC. I'm so glad Masti turned out to be a great replacement. The servers were all really nice and attentive, and even though they accidentally brought out one item we didn't order, they let us keep it and did not give us a hard time. All of the food was cooked really well and I loved the flavors of the Aloo Gobi Mutter, biriyani, and the kale chaat. I will definitely come back here soon!

Fantastic food with outstanding service. It's a beautiful restaurant with an amazing home feel. The customer service and wait staff is one of the best. Masti is one of the most attentive restaurant I've been to. I don't think my water dropped below a quarter of the glass because they were so on it! The curry and naan were fantastic and on point. I really enjoyed the Tikka Masala and a side of garlic naan. Highly recommend!

Absolutely loved the food, ambience, & our server(her recommendations were on point). Food was delicious and flavorful. They did mention fish dish and tandoor dishes take 15-20mins to come out, so plan accordingly. We will go back soon to try all these again plus the jackfruit kofta!!
