Fair Oaks Mall is a pleasant place deeper in Fairfax County than some of the other big NoVA malls. It is good-sized and really comfortable, having perhaps less floor space than Tyson s Corner Center but I d say a bit more community areas - the little couch and seat/table complexes are really well designed. There overall is just something artistic in a way about this mall as you can quickly see with the big statue inside it, the way the swirling staircases and mini-gardens are designed, and something about the mall s architecture itself. The stores are good and it has a lot of food places, including some real unique standouts like Sushi On. I think Fair Oaks has made and owned its unique niche in the NoVA mall sector through standing out in its own ways.
