The mall is welcoming in new places and saying goodbye to some of your favorite spots.
If it’s been a while since you’ve visited Tysons Corner Center, you might be in for a surprise. Through 2024 and 2025, the shopping center and its retailers are investing $110 million in renovations and enhancements. In addition to the upgrades, there are plenty of new openings and closings — especially in the mall’s east end. Here are some of the major store and dining changes you need to know about as you start holiday shopping.
La Sandia
Status: Closed June 2024
Old Location: First level
After 16 years at Tysons Corner, the Mexican restaurant decided not to renew its lease. A new tenant has yet to be named.
Barnes & Noble
Status: Temporarily closed
New Location: Across from CAMP and H&M
The two-level storefront closed its doors in May. But don’t fret, it’s not closed for good. Barnes & Noble will relocate within the mall.
Level99
Status: Opening spring 2025
New Location: Second level
This adult-focused gaming playground will feature 40 rooms of challenges, a tap room, and dining options. The entertainment center takes over the second-level space that had been home to pop-ups and the top level of Barnes & Noble.
Maggiano’s Little Italy
Status: TBA
New Location: First level, next to Coastal Flats
After 24 years at Tysons Galleria, the Italian American eatery moves down the road to Tysons Corner Center. The casual sit-down spot will serve all the classics, including Mom’s Lasagna and chicken Parmesan.
Cheesecake Factory
Status: Expected to open before the end of 2024
New Location: First level, next to Seasons 52
The Cheesecake Factory also will make the move from Tysons Galleria. During future shopping trips, you can satisfy your sweet tooth with one of 30 cheesecake options or fill up on appetizers, pasta, and burgers any time of the day.
