Yeah, their website doesn't list prices for the food...but the wine list shows wine by the glass averaging $12...so let's assume this is more pricey.

I'm not opposed to it but also don't need to spend $$, right before my Disney trip!

I've eaten at most of the restaurants at Tysons. I like Coastal Flats a lot, but honestly I love it for their little donut roll bread that they bring you ahead of time It's part of the Great American chain, so if you've eaten at Sweetwater Tavern, or Jackson's in Reston, it's the same thing. It's a little pricey-maybe $12-$20 for an entree, the steak I think is $24, salads-$12, but they're good.

I've never been to Seasons 52, but DH has for work. He didn't pay, but he thought he got a trout entree and it was around $15 for lunch. He said the flatbreads are really yummy.

I'm up for anything. I appreciate a good meal, but I can also do food court!

Cool, sounds like both may be around the same price then.

Let's wait to hear what anyone else thinks. I think a sit-down restaurant will be easier for us to talk and get to know one another better w/o competing with the noise and going-ons at the food court.

But either way is fine...food court or TGIF are cheaper options and they have good food, too!

My plans have changed slightly due to extended family health related issues. I may have to bring DH and DS along...would that bother anyone? If not then please put me down as a strong tentative. Then I will try to work out extended family around the meet n greet. I am very excited to meet everyone

Hi!

Marsha told me about this Dismeet. I too live close to Dulles airport. I would love to join you ladies this weekend but will have to say maybe since I think DH might have to work and this would be smack dab in the middle of nap time. If I can't join you this time I would love to be included for another one.

No problem for me...in fact if you'd like I can bring DH and/or my kids along, too. I have DD6 and DD2 (nearly 3). They could play in the playground area on the upper level together) and Disney store is just one big look and play area, too.

Just a thought.

I'm good either way.

Sorry to hear about the family health issues...

No, it doesn't bother me at all! Plus there is so much to do at Tysons!

Hope you can make it!!

yeah, If I bring DD2 she'll probably sleep on the way to Tysons!

Update:

Our new sofa is going to arrive on Saturday! I'm so happy to get it before we vacation next week.

Right now the window is 8am - 6pm but they will call on Friday to let us know what 3 hr chunk.

I am still planning to meet you guys and DH will stay home with the kids and await the furniture. If it comes prior to our dismeet, then they will come to Tysons, too, and meet up with any other DHs and kids.

So....bad news. I can't make it =( My sister called me yesterday to tell me we're having my nephew's birthday party at 4:00. It would take a little over 3 hours to get to my parent's house from Tyson's Corner if there's no traffic, so I just don't think it's going to work. I am really bummed, I have been looking forward to this for awhile. Take lots of pictures for me!!

oh soooo sorry to hear. If morning works out better for everyone, we can change to the morning. I'm flexible all day (since DH is going to stay home for the sofa delivery).

Oh that stinks If morning is better,I'm flexible, too! And less traffic in the morning

 

[Marshay]

Good point! I hadn't been to Tysons is many, many months...went in November and I couldn't believe the traffic!! and all the new construction. It has certainly changed from when I used to work in Tysons 10 years ago!!

We should at least meet up at a park at OKW or something. Or maybe, just maybe it'll be warm enough to swim!! My girls love playing with other princesses, even those it's a princess fest here all the time!

 

[Marshay]

Ok, guys -- tomorrow is the date ... is anyone still going??

Tania -- it may be just you and me ... if so, do we want to bring some/all of our girls along and let them play in Disney store, American Girl Doll store, playground, etc and we can just go to the food court for lunch?

Or we can just meet the 2 of us.

Where do we want to meet? The Disney store?

I wrote down all of the names of people who had written in this thread. I can send them a PM with the date, time and location just as a reminder in case their schedule opens up. thoughts?

If we need to try to reschedule, that's fine too.

I'm still excited to meet everyone and hope it can actually happen!

Thanks For the PM Marsha! Unfortunately I won't be able to make it. DH has to work in Baltimore tomorrow and wants me and the kids to come and go to Port Discovery. If you decide to do it again please let me know as I would love to meet other NoVA DISers!
