    What has Eataly confirmed for Tysons?

    The company confirmed the Tysons Corner Center location on July 22. It will be Eataly’s first store in the DC area and is planned to open sometime in 2027.

    The space has two floors, an entrance from inside the mall and a separate exterior entrance. That setup gives Eataly room to operate as both a shopping stop and a restaurant destination.

    What will be inside Eataly Tysons?

    01

    Seated restaurants

    Eataly says the store will include full-service dining. The restaurant names and menus have not been released.

    Visitors can expect faster food options alongside the sit-down restaurants, though the final counter lineup is still unknown.

    Italian specialty market

    The retail side will sell imported and domestic Italian foods, including pantry items, fresh products and ingredients for cooking at home.

    04

    Classes and events

    Cooking classes and tastings are common at other Eataly locations. Tysons-specific programming has not been announced.

    Where will Eataly be at Tysons Corner Center?

    Eataly is moving into the former American Girl store at Tysons Corner Center. The space is near the mall’s exterior and has direct access from both inside and outside.

    The mall is next to the Tysons Corner Metro station on the Silver Line. Drivers can use the center’s parking garages, but Eataly has not published store-specific parking or pickup instructions.

    When will Eataly Tysons open?

    The current target is 2027. Eataly has not announced a month, day or grand-opening weekend.

    What to watch for

    2027 is the only date confirmed

    Construction photos, hiring posts and a formal opening announcement will narrow the timeline. Until Eataly publishes one, any more precise date is speculation.

    Why the Tysons location makes sense

    Tysons Corner Center draws shoppers from Northern Virginia, Washington DC and Maryland, and it already has the transit and parking needed for a large-format market. The former American Girl space also gives Eataly the two-level layout it uses for a mix of restaurants and retail.

    The opening adds another regional destination to a mall that has been leaning further into dining and experiences, not just traditional retail.
