My absolute favorite though is the black sesame latte, it's packed with toasty sesame flavor without being grainy at all. This location in Falls Church will validate your parking, and their service is very quick which helps a lot! I do wish they offered their drinks with a larger variety of sweetness though. Currently their only options are 100%, 50%, and 0%, but even 50% for some of their drinks can be a little too sweet.

I ordered the vanilla soft serve in a cup with mango syrup and rice mochi. It was okay overall, it…read morewas not my favorite ice cream but not bad either. The mango syrup added a nice fruity sweetness. The rice mochi was quite plain, chewy, and a bit too large. It didn't really hold onto the ice cream well. The only thing that was weird to me was texture of the ice cream, it was slightly grainy for some reason which is peculiar. I also felt it was a bit expensive for what it was. I've only tried their ice cream and haven't had a chance to try any of their drinks yet.

They captured a unique feel by carving up a very interesting, small cafe space out of what they had to work with. The drinks give you the normal hot and cold options and a lot of choices to cycle through with the cafe-Thai infusions.

It's looking a bit unkept, service was friendly by the lady in the bar but the waiter was ok. The water cups we were given had lipstick marks. The menus were old, bended and dirty.

Each one tasted fresh and perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, just rich and satisfying. You can tell a lot of care goes into the baking.

I purchased a half pound of zafons and half pound of almond sour treats to bring home with me. The guy actually explained to me the story behind the zafron plant which is the main ingredient for the zafrons. It's a small part of a flower that is only grown in the middle east, and the people need to extricate a very small portion of the flower in order to get the base flour ingredient. It's an interesting bakery to be sure, and they also sell quite a few other products besides baked goods, from the Middle East.

I, of course, sampled almost all of the flavors, and I was torn between what to choose. The portion sizes were humungous, and everything was delicious! The store was very clean, and the staff was very friendly. Upon entry, they greeted me with a smile and were eager to assist. The location is perfect. There is ample parking around the shopping center and also a great location to walk around and eat your ice cream while exploring the area. To my surprise, there is a shop located in my hometown, which, as you can imagine, will be problematic. (LOL) If you're near a Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream, stop by; you'll be glad you did!

As for the drinks, the Iced coffee was not good and the Korean Ice Milk Coffee was also not good. Both drinks were extremely watered down and didn't taste right like other locations. The breads were decent. Nothing much to say as this is standard. I ordered a slice of cake and it was beyond sweet and dry. I'm not sure if I received day old cake but it was a waste of money. Would not recommend coming here unless you really need a quick bite.

This cafe is located in Vienna, and there's plenty of free slanted parking in front as well as parking in the complex next to and across if you're willing to walk. I've been to this location when it first opened years ago and they've really upped their menu and decorations inside since. The ambiance inside is beautiful, ideal for anyone looking for a good Instagram picture. There's so many angles and details so that no matter where you're sitting, there's a good vibe. There's also gorgeous seating outside since it can get crowded. For food, you order from the front and they'll call you when the food is ready. We ordered the dubai gelato and pistachio lokmas. Both were presented tastefully to make sure our eyes and cameras wanted to eat before our stomachs. The dubai gelato was a quality dessert with a good ratio of milk: cream. The pistachio flavor was evident on top, but it was just a kinda tart vanilla ice cream with toppings. I did like it, however, and it paired well with the lokmas. The lokmas were fried to perfection, a nice amount of chewy, and covered with a good ratio of pistachio cream. They were a decent size and conducive to sharing. The prices of everything, overall, was pretty expensive, but the quality definitely made up for it. I'd recommend this cafe to someone looking for a unique sweet treat, catching up with a group of girl friends of 2-4 people, or for a first date!

The white glove service, super crisp clean and whimsical ambiance, mixed with an array of interesting treats made for an incredible experience. There were many people having a girls day, out with their daughters, and even having high tea as a family. Even if you don't know anything about tea, the servers there are super knowledgeable and will guide you through the process. Starting with the hand towel (so cool!) you begin feeling relaxed and refreshed. I chose to start off with the Gen Maicha, which had a delightful popcorn taste I couldn't get enough of! For my cocktail, I chose a simple bubby rose', but my friends said their cherry blossom flavored tea inspired cocktail was amazing. As you can see, they did not cut any corners with the high tea treats, which ranged from savory to sweet. The peppery pink spread for the scone was one of my favorites. The playfulness of the colors, perfection of the shapes, and subtle but perfect flavors all engaged the senses. I cannot wait to return. For the price point, this high tea was incredible. I highly recommend!

I don't recommend ordering any type of waffles, it came out cold and even though they replaced it, it just got cold and hard quick, it was not good. I really enjoyed their tea! Felt bougie for the day and burned a hole in my wallet but it was well worth the experience. Definitely need to try at least once.
