Parking wasn't ideal, the nearby parking garage was very compact and difficult to maneuver. There is some street parking in front, but it was all taken when we visited. I ordered the Lavender Matcha Latte along with some desserts and ice cream. All items came out quickly and just as ordered. I don't have a bad thing to say about the menu. There is plenty of seating inside, making it a great option for dessert with large groups. We had 7 adults and 2 kids with no issues finding seating during our visit. The staff were kind enough to make conversation with my toddler. I appreciated their patience as I encouraged him to order for himself at the counter. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely come back if I am ever back in the area again :)

I hate runny ice cream and this was the complete opposite. It was chewy and showed zero signs of ice cream soup even after 5 minutes. I loved it so much I came by the next day with the kids. I ordered the exact same flavor and what I got was a soupy mess. I'm not sure what changed within 24 hours but I was so disappointed. I don't know if something went wrong with the freezers but the ice cream clearly wasn't being chilled at the right temperature. Texture aside, the flavors here are great. I'm hoping it was a fluke so I can give this place their last star.

Love this place! I tried their ciabatta, Nutella bread pudding, and baklava cheesecake. I was…read moredoubting their ciabatta at first when I saw it but after actually toasting it and having it with a sandwich it was crisp and airy. The Nutella bread pudding is very indulgent but had such a delicious crust on top and a milk gooey center. The baklava cheesecake took my breath away. It just might be the best cheesecake I've ever had. It's VERY sweet so I doubt anyone can finish one whole piece in one sitting but worth every single calorie. The baked and other cashier were lovely! Very kind even though I came pretty much right before closing. There's plenty of choices and also some room for sitting down if you want to eat in there!

Kyoto Matcha is such a dessert staple in the DMV. The matcha soft serve is the most classic item…read moreand I usually get the matcha only. But you can get the soft serve with half vanilla to break up the taste. The matcha flavor is clear and the ice cream is so creamy. It's good potion size and despite the price, it's worth it everytime for me. We also tried the rose lychee cake! I personally really liked it but some of my friends thought it tasted a soap haha. We thought it would be a circle cake like in the electronic ordering pictures but it's actually a square. Service was amazing, the staff was very patient. Seat is limited, it is hard to fit large groups more than 5.

We went there 2 days in a row back to back. I brought 5 red bean taiyaki the 1st day only because…read morethe man had an attitude and also didn't want to make me the vanilla cream ones. The red bean taiyaki was pretty good and had a bit of a crunch when it was warm but kinda less so when it turned cold and soggy. A good point was that the red bean filling was not overly sweet like in some other dessert fillings. My sister and niece went back the next day to get more and was met with "What do you want?" in a really testy, I can't be bothered with you kind of questioning when it was their turn to order. This time he did make the vanilla cream ones but his overall attitude soured us to the patroning experience. Not sure we would go back again based on piss poor attitude alone.

My partner got one of the chocolate cakes. His was a good choice, which he really enjoyed. My almond croissant had very little almond paste (a teaspoon or less in a large, very dry cardboardy croissant) - in France it would have been sold as yesterday's bread. I could not drive back 45 minutes to show them (they close at 8 pm). But don't sell old breads in the evening. A large amount of almond cream might have kept it moist - but the tiny amount helped keep it dry. Selling what I bought - is SOOO wrong in so many ways.

I will say it's pricey but I mean what do you expect for high-quality yummy desserts. The donuts filled with some type of seasonal filling is my fav! The drinks there are also worth trying. My favorite was the tiramisu ice coffee (I think that's what it's called). Onlyyyyy thing I would say is the seating, not much seating for the amount of people who go but nonetheless still great spot.
