It was definitely a summer light-cake, but just overall not my pick. But again I will say, 5 stars! Great drinks, great.. clean location, and a delicious display of cakes and desserts!

I ended up getting a peach smoothie but it was overly sweet and very syrup-y (tasted very artificial instead of the fresh fruit smoothies). The bathrooms were both out of order as well so we had to go to the mall for the restroom. The location itself was much smaller than the other Tous Les Jours locations I've been to by a wide margin.

The BLT had an amazing sauce on it, but the crusty bread did make it a little hard to eat. The iced tea was refreshing, but a little sweet and not very citrusy.

My family and I stumbled upon this place after grabbing a bite to eat in the city. We asked our…read moreserver if there was a place we can leave our luggage since we just came m the airport. To our surprise, right across the street was this spot and we spoke to a nice person named Taylor. She mentioned that for a small charge, we can leave our luggage here before checking into our place or stay later on. If you're in town and don't want your baggage to wear you down, come check this place out!

For lunch this past Sunday, a few of us stopped by Paramount Cafe since they actually have 卤肉饭…read more(Taiwanese braised pork over rice) here. Who knew that there would be a cafe in Pentagon City with this option? The interior is a bit cramped with many cardboard boxes piling up. We were able to order the food at the counter and waited about 5-10 minutes before the food was ready. BRAISED PORK OVER RICE (卤肉饭) - 15.49 Lots of rice, more rice than I could finish with the amount of braised pork belly they give. The pork was very fatty, which made it tasty and juicy, but it wasn't very saucy. There were two halves of a bokchoy and half of an incredibly boiled egg, which was meh. Still, I finished all the toppings and maybe a little less than half of the rice. I was full, but $15.49 for the food was not worth it. Overall, 3.5/5 but bump it to a 4/5 since there's a scarcity of food like this in the area. They sell other comfort Asian dishes too, like coconut chicken cutlet rice and Japanese eel rice.

With an impressively high Yelp rating, I was disappointed to hear the new owners say the glowing reviews are from the previous owner (though I respect the honesty). Despite that, we really enjoyed our visit. The new owners live up to the legacy. First of all, the service is excellent. An older man makes the food and who I assume is his daughter takes the orders. Both are kind. At the end, she gave my daughter a granola bar for free. The menu is a mix of Korean food and the small market in the back sells Korean products and more. It's very fun to browse and pick up some snacks and treats. My daughter loved the juicy grape fruit snacks. To eat, we ordered the Japanese curry and milk tea. Both were full of flavor and made with love. "This is my new favorite meal of all time," said my daughter. She devoured the bowl herself! There's a small parking lot in front of the cafe. It's within walking distance from the Crystal City Metro.

In a time when some folks are busy declaring "Nuclear Family Month" and trying to decide whose rights count, Colada Shop is over here doing what really matters: serving delicious Cuban food, amazing cocktails, and creating a welcoming space for everyone. The croquetas were incredible, the drinks were refreshing, and the vibe was immaculate. The Pride decorations made me smile because despite all the noise, people are still showing up for community, inclusion, and joy. Turns out diversity isn't scary--unless you're a croqueta at my table. Those things disappeared fast. In a city that can feel especially heavy these days, this place felt like a breath of fresh air. Sometimes resistance looks like marching. Sometimes it looks like supporting businesses that make everyone feel welcome. Happy Pride Month to everyone celebrating. The haters may be loud, but the mojitos are louder.

This location has the same quality of food as their Wharf location. I was so happy to be able to get a couple of empanadas, a Cuban sandwich, sweet plantains and a couple of drinks before jetting off. The staff is super friendly but getting our drinks was a little slow. Having said that, it was during busy times so we totally get it. Didn't take pictures of the empanadas before they got in my belly. We got a chicken & beef-so good just a little on the small side so if you're sharing, keep that in mind. Cheers!!

Came here for breakfast! We ordered two breakfast burritos, 2 specialty donuts (salted caramel…read moresmore & lemavender), and 2 lattes. The donuts are $4 a piece which I think is pretty high and has been my complaint at other locations, the flavor was delicious though! The burritos were 11.50 for bacon and 12.50 for chorizo. They were both delicious but the chorizo was more beans than chorizo. The coffee was delicious. Overall, pretty good but $47 for breakfast is a little high. The service was a bit slow, they were very busy though. The locations lot of indoor seating which is nice! We took ours to go to eat outside elsewhere.

But on my most recent visit to the mall, the Starbuck booth had been dismantled. And why? It was always busy. Be that as it may, I recalled there was a Nordstrom Espresso Bar at the opposite and quiet end of the mall. And yes indeed, there the Ebar still stood! It's not that busy right now, but I expect their business to step up when people discover this is the only place you can get coffee in Fashion Centre. Oh the coffee (I ordered a 4 shot espresso) - it has a great flavor and is reasonably priced.
