When I'm craving something it's usually the K-street toast from Gavi Cafe! My favorites are the bulgogi and the Peruvian chicken, but I absolutely recommend the bulgogi for those who have never tried them before. Located in Tilly Kitchen with ample parking. If you feel like the service is slow, it's because they're made fresh! They've got lots of delicious pastries and drinks as well - all look picture perfect!
We wanted to check out this cafe that replaced Amor Cafe. - Peruvian Chicken Cheese Egg - Raspberry Cream Sliced Cake - Pistachio Cream It has a warm and cozy interior with a good amount of seating to work or just to hang out. Everything was prepared quickly and tasted delicious! The service was great and the staff were friendly offering recommendations when needed.
I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh and delicious the sandwiches were! Out of the Ham Kstreet and Kimchi bulgogi, the bulgogi was the BEST!! Sadly, can't say the same about their coffee. Ordered the tiramisu iced latte and it tasted like a non sweet chocolate milk... Kimchi Bulgogi 5/5 Ham K-Street 4/5 Tiramisu Latte 2/5
Came here for a quick little brunch. This place has plenty of seating and a cute patio area outside. I ordered an avocado toast with egg and an einspanner matcha latte. Both were really delicious, the toast was made with a thick crispy bread and the flavor was amazing and the einspanner matcha latte was perfect. My husband ordered the lady matcha with a bulgogi egg sandwich and both tasted really good that he wanted to order another sandwich to go. The service was good and everything came out fast and fresh.
Fantastic little place! The coffee, pastries and sandwiches are exceptional! I had a Viennese coffee, Bulgagi sandwich and a s'mores cookie. The service was fantastic and I can't wait to come back and eat there it's very cute and lots of seating.
Gavi replaced the Amor a while ago, even though the sign above still says Amor haha. It's got the same bones as most of the other Korean bakeries in the area. The menus are pretty similar with some specialty drinks, but the sandwiches are the same as ones from Semicolon and the baked goods have the same vibes as others. That's not to say it's bad though! I would say that's how you know everything is solid and will hit that craving. I ordered a matcha London fog, which was delicious. They keep the tea bag in the drink, so the earl grey flavor stays strong. The matcha and tea flavors complement each other well. I also picked up an everything seasoning salt bread, which is like a croissant, so nothing to complain about.
Good food, good coffee. Service was reasonable on a busy Saturday morning. Ambiance reminds me of a Paris baguette but a little different layout. Seating can be limited on a Saturday morning due to the volume of people, but we were able to find seats quickly after ordering for 2 people.
Loved their pistachio cream drink and ham and cheese pastry - so flaky. Loved how warm their staff was, the overall aesthetics, vibe, and selection of pastries, drinks, and sandwiches. Gavi replaced another cafe here, and I must say... Gavi is definitely better.
The black sesame latte was rich, creamy, and well balanced with a nutty, slightly sweet flavor. So glad I tried that per a friend's recommendation, definitely worth it, and next time I'll try the biscoff drink! Service was friendly and attentive, and overall a cozy place. It's a modern vibe with plenty of natural light and enough seating. Nice spot to relax and catch up with a friends or even do some work/studying. There's also a lot of parking at that shopping center.
Yes! The desserts are pretty, but I wasn't too impressed flavor-wise when I checked out this spot. The first time I stopped by for desserts, and found them to be generic and nothing special unfortunately. Second time around, we ordered actual food. The strawberry salad was fine. The bagel sandwich was good. Honestly, left feeling like I could make these things at home.
What a beautiful bakery! It's located near the goodwill store and fun land near the 28 exit. I am so glad such a beautiful store with amazing bread, pastries and Korean breakfast sandwiches is open in this area. ***the only issue... and if I can humbly suggest to the owners... the beans being used for the drip coffee is awful. It's primary petrol and not smooth or sweet. I think just changing the beans could make the entire experience absolutely amazing. Coffee roasters like Haan coffee would probably be equivalent in cost and far better. The Korean toast is absolutely amazing and both the BELT and bulgogi (sweet) is amazing. They also have regular croissant breakfast sandwiches. Make you way to check it out!
I've tried Gavi in Tillys before they opened their own cafe. The inside was quaint, nicely decorated and clean. They have a small self serve bakery section and everything looked super fresh and delicious. They also have a refrigerated cake section by the register. Their menu consists of a variety of sandwiches, same as the Tilly location and all of them I want to try! I had the bulgogi sandwich last time which was amazing so this time, I ordered the Peruvian chicken sandwich. It was just as amazing with the different flavors wrapped into this one sandwich. And it was a big sandwich too! I will definitely be returning soon!
i got the Ham K-Street Toast Sandwich. It was really good! Tbh if there was sprinkle of sugar like traditional street toast I think it would have been better. Overall I felt like it was pretty good and the portion is pretty big. I also tried the biscoff coffee and that was good too!! The place is nice there 2 different restaurants. The price is kind of like all cafes nowadays..service was good. It's in a good location. Overall, I recommend it!!

Decided to order ahead for lunch at a new cafe I haven't tried and the reviews are right, Gavi's pretty darn good. I ordered their London fog matcha (quite literally 2 of my favorite beverages combined) along with their bulgolgi sandwich. The beverage was definitely an all time favorite of mine. Never had something like this and the matcha was so creamy, it was a nice touch to the tea. The bulgolgi sandwich is a perfect size. A bit messy but the packaging to go is also really cute. Service was quick and employees very helpful and friendly. read more
I honestly was just stopping by cuz I wanted to grab a tea or a drink on my way back to work, but I sort of ended up grabbing a couple pastries because they looked so delish! The bakery had a couple group of customer when I walked in with a handful of customers in line as well. They weren't terribly busy, but they were sorta calming down. They have a solid menu for breakfast items, pastries, coffees and non-coffee drinks! I ordered a mango lemonade drink with strawberry cream pastry, mango cream croissant and a chocolate cream croissant. They initially gave me a strawberry lemonade, but the barista was kind enough to remake me the correct drink. It is such a cute little cafe perfect for a lunch or coffee date with girlfriends or a little family outing thing. They have tables that are good for small groups or a couple friends! I would love to spend some time just chillen in there for a little bit. I would definitely recommend. read more

One can never go wrong with any of the hot sandwiches offered by Gavi Bakery and Cafe. I didn't care for their Biscoff latte due to the soggy crumbs I kept tasting. The sandwich totally made up for it. I just wish the arugula and the tomatoes weren't so dry tasting. Still, I love that I can have the items delivered to me via DoorDash and I don't have to download a separate store specific app. I wouldn't mind reordering from this location again in the future. read more

Was super busy on Saturday with all the tables full when we went! Loads of bread options and an overall pretty layout. It's a bit crowded feeling though. Matcha einspanner - fresh cream or milk taste, pretty good! Matcha flavor comes through nicely too. But too sweet and sweet overpowers 2/5 Salt bread - not too salty or buttery. Soft but could be fluffier 2.25/5 read more
I acknowledge that this cafe is generally good, but a few specialty coffees are too expensive. I love the Tiramisu flavor and ordered an iced Tiramisu coffee for $9.82 after taxes. And honestly, the flavor wasn't even there--it was overly sweet and tasted more like chocolate. I got a little cute waffle stick in it. Was that why it was so expensive? Also, their drink wait time is very long compared to other competing local cafes in the area (Cafein, for example). The service and quality were better when it was Amor Cafe. read more

TL;DR: Cute cafe with yummy pastries, variety of drinks, and breakfast/lunch options Gavi has a location that is located inside of Tilly Kitchen and now they have this brick and mortar spot. The inside is cute and has plenty of seating, as well as some tables outside. They have a pastry case full of sweet and savory options, as well as some packaged items and shareables on the side. The menu is full of a variety of coffee, tea, and matcha items and the workers were more than happy to answer any questions. They also have some meal items. I have had the sandwiches at the Tilly Kitchen location, and they are pretty tasty! FOOD: ~Matcha einspanner (3.8/5): decent matcha flavor, but very thick from the topping. Could use a few more drops of honey or some sweetener to balance out the bitterness and richness ~Matcha cube croissant (4/5): flaky goodness. The filling was very light and tasty, but wish it went throughout the cube ~Tiramisu croissant (4/5): croissant was so good and good ratio of filling ~Castella roll slice (3/5): basic castella Overall, really like the vibe in here and will be back for breakfast/lunch soon! read more

I love salt bread so I was excited to try the squid ink salt bread. Unfortunately it did not live up to my expectation as the flavor was lacking and the bread was rather dry. However the mocha bun redeemed it for me as it was almost comparable to my favorite mocha bun from breeze in Annandale. Tlj and Pb could never LOL. Overall they have so many variety of dessert and pastries that won't disappoint read more
The pistachio croissant wasn't really anything special. It tasted like a cream croissant with bits of pistachio, but it didn't have much pistachio flavoring otherwise. It does look really pretty. I also got the matcha einspanner latte which I haven't seen since I was in downtown LA. it was very creamy, but it wasn't the amount of creaminess that I had hoped since the last time I got one. It probably tasted the same as the Matcha latte themselves except just slightly less creamy. I wasn't really impressed by the food/drink. Service was nice and the staff are friendly and they look like they're just having a great time at the café. It's very much your typical Korean European fusion Asian bakery and I'm here for it! read more
I think this is by far one of my favorite cafes in rhe DMV. The ambience is great, so many pastries to choose from that's re both delicious and aesthetically pleasing. I went around 9am on a Sunday and it wasn't too busy but traction started picking up when I left around 10am. Parking is easy. Server was so kind and soft spoken, I enjoyed their presence. We got the black sesame latte and tiramisu latte. Alongside, we got the sausage rib, blueberry cream pastry, mango croffle, salt bread, and s'mores cookie. Nothing disappoints. Will be coming again. read more

TLDR - this cozy spot has a great variety of pastries, sandwiches, and an extensive drink menu for every palette. I saw this place on TikTok a few times and finally went to check it out last Saturday. It was pretty busy with only one table open when I went around noon, but all of their breads and pastries were fully stocked. I tried their original salt bread and ricotta toast which were both phenomenal - they had the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The matcha London fog was also great - my partner had the salted caramel latte which was rich and creamy. Highly recommend getting that latte if you like a sweet drink! read more
If you have been here before and weren't too convinced, you should give this place a second chance. They completely changed the style and menu, and it's really good. I tried one of their puff pastries with a coffee, truly amazing. The laminated dough was puffy and crunchy, and the custard filling light and delicious! They now offer entrees for lunch as well, and not only bakery. It's really day and night! read more
The space has been completely remodeled from the last owners of amour and it looks great! The staff was friendly, they have a nice patio area and the pastries were very good. I had a cube croissant, pistachio cronut and a lady matcha. read more
We were in the area and wanted to try a new cafe since Chantilly and Centreville have so many. We got a chocolate croissant roll, hot chicken egg sandwich, tiramisu latte and a salted caramel crème iced latte. The sandwich was really good but a bit messy to eat in my opinion. The chicken was also not fried, which i expected from a hot chicken sandwich but it was still good (and healthier of course). The tiramisu latte was also very good! One of the better ones we've tried. Overall, although a bit pricy, Gavi is a cute little cafe and I liked the tons of options they had for lattes and such. read more
This place replaced the old Amore Cafe. The interior of this place is really neat and they have outdoor seating as well. This is the second location for Gavi, with first location being in chantilly inside Tilly kitchen. I think they have more baked goods here than the Chantilly location. Will be back! read more

So, let's start off with my first complaint, the sandwiches were good! Delicious even, but they get stuff to the brim, so they can be hard to eat without making a mess. It's a minor issue, but my complaint is my sandwich was the short rib with mushrooms... and it was subpar. The mushroom tasted good but the short rib was not. It had a lot of fatty pieces, and honestly it was more of a mushroom sandwich than it was short rib, so fair warning it might not be worth it in my opinion. Moving onto the good, the customer service was nice! They made our stuff quickly (it was around 1-2pm, the place was relatively calm) I got a strawberry and banana smoothie. It was really good, they made it with coconut milk, which I appreciate because it thought it was made with regular milk. My friend really enjoyed their pistachio latte, and we tried pastries that are located in their bakery section.... It was really good, honesty if I were to come back I would only get their drinks and pastries here. read more
