Reston, VA (February 26, 2025) — SYN Rooftop Bar & Lounge, a chic, sophisticated, all-season destination for craft cocktails and stunning panoramic views of Northern Virginia, is set to open Saturday, March 1 in Reston, Virginia. Perched atop the 16th floor of the AC Hotel & Residence Inn by Marriott Reston, SYN offers a dynamic indoor and outdoor year-round rooftop space in the heart of the next phase of Reston Town Center.
Named after the Greek word for “together,” SYN‘s inviting atmosphere and ambience makes it the prime gathering place for locals and out-of-town visitors to partake in dinner and late-night drinks and bites. SYN’s menu, curated by Executive Chef Alexis Hernandez and Food & Beverage Director Ceren Hunt, will showcase artfully-designed cocktails and shareable plates as the restaurant highlights globally inspired flavors and blends influences from various culinary traditions.
“We’re so thrilled to bring SYN to life in the heart of Reston,” Hunt said, “Great hospitality isn’t just about serving food and drinks—it’s about creating a space where people feel welcome, connected, and taken care of. At SYN, every detail is designed to make guests feel at home, whether they’re here for a quick cocktail or a long, lingering evening with friends."
Beverage highlights include the Gin de Jardin, made with cucumber infused Beefeater Gin, lime juice, simple syrup, mint and topped with a few drops of sesame oil. The exquisitely-balanced cocktail pairs perfectly with SYN’s Ricotta, served with walnut raisin bread, aged balsamic and honey for a bright, airy appetizer to start the night. On a smoky and tangier side, guests can sip on the Forbidden Orchard, made with Banhez Mezcal and mixed with pomegranate juice, lemon, agave and aquafaba. Other food offerings include the juicy Wagyu Sliders, served with sweet & spicy pickles and coleslaw.
