    Thai tea
    Destiny E.

    I love this little place. A friend brought me here for a Thai tea one day when I had a craving. I was instantly hooked. When I'm in the area, I will definitely be stopping by. It has such a cute little inside that it's perfect for a little café situation, or a quick tea date with your friend or kid. It is such a cute little vibe. I love all the different types of seating and decor. Additionally, the Thai tea (about $7.50 for a large) here is delicious. They have a full Boba bar, which has tons of different milk teas on it. Their food menu is cute as well. It has pho, bahn mi, spring rolls, and a number of different items. It is convenient to get these items, but they are definitely a bit overpriced, especially considering that there are some really delicious Vietnamese spots not too far from here. One item that I can personally attest to being a little mid and overpriced is the spring rolls. I paid somewhere between seven and nine dollars for two. They were not that flavorful and they were pretty small. Service is usually pretty quick for drinks. I've ordered online and also in store before. I've never waited more than three minutes for my drink. I did wait about 17 minutes for spring rolls one time, but it is what it is. Overall, I will come back. I'm actually planning to take the kid there one of these days for a cute little day date.

    Iced egg latte
    Ian B.

    Everything about this place is a 10/10! We're from out of town, but in the few days we're in this area, I will be here every day. The name is very fitting; the ambiance is extremely chill. They only play jazz, so you can actually come and relax instead of hearing someone else's taste in pop. My iced egg latte was exactly how I would make a coffee drink at home, which shocked me. One of the best lattes I've had in a long time. The service has been great. Every detail inside the shop has blown me away, from the shoeless seating on the floor to the endless paper cranes, and the incredible old camera collection. Thank you to the owners for putting all of your heart and creativity into a place that I will continue to visit when I'm in the DC area!

    Tai chin pho
    Emily H.

    Awesome, cozy little spot with delicious food! The pho was very flavorful and delicious, loved every bite. When you enter you order everything at the counter and then seat yourself. Staff was very kind and food came quickly. This place definitely lives up to the name, "chill" atmosphere was perfect for enjoying a meal while catching up with friends in the ambient dining area.

    Taro latte

    Great spot! Came in there to do some work and the tea/coffee selection is great. I also picked up lunch here and the Banh Mi sandwiches are amazing. It does get crowded around lunch hour but i was able to snag a seat before then.

    Service: you order your food and beverage at the counter. Food: Vietnamese fusion. I ordered the egg coffee with was smaller than I had expected for $7!!! But it was delicious. I also ordered the chicken wings. The sauce was ok - I wished they would have done the classic wings with fish sauce. They served it with a side of blue cheese. My friend got the basil fries and Banh Mi which she enjoyed. Ambiance: super cute interior. It's small with 3 small tables, 1 communal table l, a lounge area and a stage for entertainment. Overall I liked this little spot in Arlington. I think the prices are a bit high. I think I prefer the beverages more than the food.

    Viet Frapp
    Nicole O.

    I love the coziness of this cafe and it has really unique seating and decor. I actually took inspiration from their plant corner and bought the same plant stand for my new house. The best things to get here are the Vietnamese coffee-based drinks. My go-to used to be the Vietnamese frappe with some jelly added to it but I recently had a taste test with both the hot and cold versions of their cà phê trứng (egg coffee). The hot version was small and concentrated and the iced version is medium sized, thick, and velvety. It is a special treat that I like to indulge in every once in a while and it's worth the short wait. While waiting and enjoying my drink I usually play on the typewriter, fold origami paper cranes, or look at their vintage cameras decorating the back wall. There is limited parking but it is next to other business that have more parking spots (orthodontist).

    Papaya "salad"
    Jay P.

    If you come here strictly for drinks - boba, tea, etc. - it's a nice spot, but for food, not worth the price. I ordered the Papaya Salad, and although it tasted good, it was just papaya with a few leaves - not a salad at all. See the picture. If you Google Papaya Salad and compare it any of those pictures to what was given, it was very disappointing. In fact, for ~$14, it was not worth it at all; even it were $10 it wouldn't have been worth it. The cafe did have a cozy vibe and some live music which was unique, but the place was much smaller than the pictures showed and not as organized/clean as the pictures led on either. I feel this place might have been great when it first opened, but now below average; especially with their prices.

    This used to be my all time favorite hangout spot to go with my friends when I lived closer to Arlington! Super cozy inside with giant teddy bears and lots of seating with ambient lights and pretty decorations. Love all the drink options and the pho's really good, my only complaint is how expensive it's gotten for the small portions, I feel like they should be bigger if the price point is increasing that much. Absolutely love this place though, no other vietnamese places compare to the ambiance and good vibes of Chill Zone

    Large Milk Tea with boba.
    Kyle S.

    The tea flavor is on par with other boba places in the area. The default sweetness level is very sugary, so if you want to taste the tea I would recommend requesting less sugar. On this visit, Chill Zone was out of the regular tapioca boba, so they recommended substituting the "crystal" boba instead. Unfortunately, the flavor doesn't really go well with a black milk tea, so I wouldn't opt for that again in the future. The layout and ambiance of Chill Zone is pretty nice and they've done a lot to make a smaller space comfortable and inviting. They also have a lot of great food options on their menu and I've had a good experience with those. As far as tea only, I'm not sure this would be my first pick but I guess it works in a pinch. Price wise, it is definitely on the higher end for tea since one large black milk tea with boba came out to $8.80 with tax.

    Warm egg coffee
    Samantha W.

    Love this neighborhood, hole in the wall Vietnamese cafe! The coffees are some of the most unique and delicious I've had- especially the taro latte and warm egg coffee. The food is equally amazing- the pork bahn mi and pho are obvious, well done staples, but they have such an extensive, creative menu! Great vibes that keep me coming back.

    Seating area

    Such a cute place :")!! The vibe is so cozy, a perfect lil place for a coffee date or to study. The food was amazing & the staff here is very friendly, will definitely be back

    Black Sesame Soy Latte
    Shirley Jane D.

    I've ordered bahnmi, cappuccino, black sesame latte and basil fries. They all tasted good. I love how cozy the cafe feels! I like their seating even tho the place is quite small. But it's a such a cute cafe! The service was good too.

    Green Is Good (I think they ran out of chia seeds but it was still good)
    Diana N.

    This place surprises me every year. When I first tried this place pre-pandemic, they only had Boba, lattes, and hot teas. Compared to other places and how pricy it was, I always felt they were a 4 star establishment. I come back a year later and they started adding Vietnamese food which I thought was tasty. Again, not enough for me to come back right away. Recently, I went back after YEARS, and now they've added dishes like Peach Sticky rice along with a plethora of menu items. I loved the sticky rice dish! This shows Chill Zone improves every year and has become a very well-rounded establishment. I think after all these years, they deserve my 5 star review. I'm glad they stuck around!

They have a breakfast/brunch menu, a daytime/lunch menu, and an evening menu and you can watch them preparing items in the kitchen. You can either eat inside or outside on the patio, and they have heaters for the cooler days. We came here to get some baked goods mid-afternoon and they still had a good selection. The bear claw was large and tasty with an enjoyable cinnamon flavor and the lemon meringue croissant was unique and enjoyable as I'd never had a croissant with lemon meringue filing. They weren't cheap but they were tasty and enjoyable. I did want to mention they have parking but it's hit or miss on getting a spot since it can get crowded so walking might be easiest if you live nearby. I'll come back here again for a meal and to try some other items on their menu.

    I really wanted to love this place…read more My family and I chose to come here for Easter because it's dog-friendly -- which felt like the perfect combination for us. They even have a dog menu, and the patio setup is honestly beautiful. The ambiance is warm, inviting, and aesthetically on point. The staff greets you right away, and first impressions were genuinely great. We chose to sit outside on the balcony so my puppy could join us, and that space alone is worth noting -- fire pits going, cozy atmosphere, just really well done. Unfortunately, everything went downhill from there. We ordered food for all of us, including my daughter and my puppy. My food and my puppy's food came out fairly quickly, but my daughter's meal never arrived. After waiting quite a while, I had to flag down the waiter, only to be told -- after the fact -- that they didn't even have what she ordered. At no point before that did anyone communicate this. So now she has to reorder, and we're waiting all over again while the rest of us are already eating. When her food finally arrives, there's no silverware. Just... dropped off with no thought to the fact that she actually needed utensils to eat. We also ordered lemonade, which was great -- but when the waiter offered to bring more after the issues, it never came. To try and make up for things, they brought out a dessert that looked beautiful, but when we asked what was in it (due to food sensitivities), the waiter had no idea. He eventually came back with an allergy sheet, which felt like an afterthought rather than informed service. At that point, I asked to speak with a manager. Instead, the waiter told me, "I just got out of trouble -- what can I do to make this right?" That response alone was incredibly off-putting and unprofessional. We ultimately just had my daughter's meal removed from the bill and decided to move on. Even my puppy's waffles -- which was one of the things we were most excited about -- came out slightly burnt. Overall, the lack of communication, poor follow-through, and disorganized service completely overshadowed what could have been a great experience. It's disappointing because the space and concept have so much potential. Unfortunately, I can't overlook the service issues.
