Matchbox closes permanently at Reston Station

The Matchbox restaurant in Reston has quietly closed its doors for good. We’re told the closure happened last week.

The restaurant – located in Reston Station in the same plaza with Founding Farmers and Davio’s Northern Italian Steakhouse – originally opened in 2021.

Matchbox is part of Thompson Restaurants which also owns many other popular brands in the region.

In some locations, Thompson is changing one concept into another – such as the former Velocity Wings restaurant in Sterling that is becoming a new Austin Grill.

However, we’re hearing that Thompson will not be changing the Reston Station Matchbox into a different concept. Rather, it is exiting the center.
