    I've been wanting to try this place since I was craving for a good galette and it did not disappoint! First of all, I really loved the decoration inside and I was pleasantly surprised with how adorable they set up the tables. I also love how their menu is really dedicated to galettes and crepes. I ordered a regular latte and galette complete and it was sooo good! I was very impressed with their latte. Highly recommend! For galettes, I like how they come with the small green salad. My husband got the baked salmon one and it was pretty good, probably I liked this one better than mine. I don't know how they made the sauce but it was absolutely delicious and complemented the salmon pretty well. I would love to come back again and try their crepes too!!!

    Menu offerings are well thought out and the food is good. Ambience is cutesy with abundant tchotchkes and shiny objects. The staff is dressed in costume and friendly. A nice place to eat, but only on special occasions.

    I had the galette complete crepe with a sunny side up egg and it was phenomenal! So full of flavor and super fresh. I also tried the chick magnet too. Yum! So good! I love the generous amount of tomatoes. The pistachio latte had the perfect flavor. The cafe is beautifully decorated inside. It's charming and you get great photos ! I love the outdoor area too, it's relaxing ! Staff is so nice and welcoming. Little Falls Cafe was recommended to me by our friends back home in Chesapeake that own a pizza shop called Pizza Amanti. I am soooooo happy they recommended Little Falls Cafe. It was the best time ever! I want to try more crepes and enjoy the experience again soon!

    Came today with a quickness since a coworker and i were on our usual walk. Now bare in mind that this place is still in Soft Opening so the ratings could very well change. 1. the place a very cute and has a lot of small trinkles and fund things to look at its like you walked into a mini European cafe. I love the staff outfits. one of the staff members actually had mentioned it was very much like walking into the von trappe family home. But the coziness of the place is so welcoming. I saw a sign on google that listed no kids under 10 and ill be honest i understand that there is a risk in children not only running around and the danger of them actually reaching for items that are not bolted on the wall and touching things. 2. Crepes.. so my coworker and I decided to share a crepe... we were inquiring about the time frame of preparation since we were trying to get back to the office. The staff was accommodating to our limit in time and were very kind about it. However, due to soft opening they did not have any togo capabilities. We both decided on the blue bell which was a blueberry and mint compote crepe with caramel drizzle. So when the crepe arrived I appreciated that the compote was on the side. Although the crepe flavor was very good. Not clawingly sweet and a good bite from the crepe it cut nicely you didn't have to tug at it. The compote was a bit thin. I did appreciate the freshness of the blueberries and the mint flavor was on the back end it wasn't too minty but there was a brightness in overall flavor. The Whipped cream was thick and very creamy, little sweet with a hint of vanilla really rounded everything out. At first, we didn't ask for whipped cream but I am glad it was placed on the side just in case. I do have to make a comment on the plates...i love the vintage China plates with the florals. 3. Creamolato.... Flavors were lemon and strawberry. Both were fresh and were like a smooth sorbet minus the strawberry which was a bit more icey. But I'm so glad they offered a combo option because i got to try both flavors. Although due to the no to go I had to scarf down the flavors. Overall Little Falls seems like it could become a hidden gem if the quality keeps up and efficiency stays however; I was told there is one chef so far so that could pose a challenge in the future. I will say that the price point for these crepes are a bit high even though you have high quality ingredients. But a fun experience I wish them well and hope that they are able to work out kinks and introduce more seasonal items.

    Toasted marshmallow latte

    Such a cute cafe! They have some nice Christmas decor during the holidays which I liked. They sat us in a few minutes. I got the toasted marshmallow latte which was fine; was just a latte with a toasted marshmallow in the middle honestly. Had the steak crepe which was very tasty with the hot sauce. The steak, mushroom, and onions were great together! Also had the strawberry crepe which was really good with the nutella and strawberry syrup. Had their ice dessert at the end which I thought was fine. Enjoyed this spot and it's such a vibe! Staff were attentive and nice too. They have a parking lot for the cafe too.

    OVERALL: cute interior, great food! Limited takeout packaging FOOD: stopped in to order food to go. We got crepes and the loch ness monster. Crepes were great but small. Loch ness monster was the most filling and flavorful thing ever. I wasn't expecting it to be light and filling. You get a huge portion. If you get takeout make sure you check the box because it leaks. VENUE: a bit unassuming as it is not showy outside but it's big inside with plenty of booths and tables. Cute german-ish decor. SERVICE: staff was very friendly and accommodating.

    Toasted Marshmallow Lattes

    love, love, LOVE!! What a cute and fabulously charming little place. If I had just been walking by, I would have missed it. Quite literally. It looks like a single family home from the front, and has a parking lot in the back for customers. Due to it being the holiday season, it was the epitome of deck the halls. My friend and I were immediately embraced like a warm hug at grandmama's house iykyk. The place is decorated in such a cozy way-- walls are covered in art, textiles, and other knick knacks. The staff is adorned with lace bandanas and plaid. We were constantly looking around because everytime you look, you'll notice something new. The wait for a table downstairs was fairly long 20-30mins. We could have immediately sat at an upstairs table but the vibe was completely different, and was completely silent. We opted to wait longer. We both ordered the exact same things-- toasted marshmallow latte and the Hog in the Orchard galette. The wait for food was even longer, over ~35 mins. The vibes were so nice and overall we didnt feel rushed, so we really didn't mind as we sipped our coffees. Both were incredible. The latte was a tad too sweet for me but came in these kitschy Christmas Village boot mugs. Thr galette was the perfect balance of savory with a hint of sweetness from the apples. The crepe was so yummy and crispy. I haven't had a good crepe in so long that this felt like such a treat. I can't wait to come back!

    Banana and strawberries with Nutella crepe
    Ineke S.

    I went back and had the same galette, but also made sure I tried a sweet crepe. I shared the Nutella crepe with strawberries and bananas with my son and it was perfect. The fruit was fresh, the crepe light and buttery and the Nutella was of course divine! The restaurant was busier on this visit, but we were still greeted promptly and the service was attentive and friendly. I walked around a bit this time and realized there's a second smaller dining room that's just as cozy and colorful. It's a sweet little spot and we will definitely be back.

    Carbonara Galette
    Jana L.

    They were busy and it was hot out and they don't have a lot of space to wait inside so they were graciously seating folks outside and still providing drink service - it was very nice and on a cooler day it would have been wonderfully pleasant - they did a beautiful job creating that outside area with charming tables, umbrellas and flowers. For how busy they were, they were attentive, even to the groups waiting outside - I know they are only open for a few months but service is top notch! And the aesthetic is spot on - I love the Scandinavian stenciling around the windows, mixed table settings and vintage finds - it's charming while being thoughtfully curated. I only had their savory galettes - both of which were very tasty and I do love that they come with a little salad - the vinegar and acid pairs well with the richness of the eggs and cheese. The Carbonara with the runny egg was perfectly cooked and delicious. Drinks were fresh and refreshingly light and the Americano, excellently brewed. It's a small menu and a little pricey - but it's charming, well executed and definitely a place I want to try again!

    After the farmers' market, I wandered over for breakfast at this adorable restaurant to try their crepes. I lean more toward savory, I enjoyed Under the Fig Tree with Gruyère, fresh sliced figs and balsamic vinegar. The food was delicious and the service wonderful. I will return to sit in their outdoor area on a nicer day.

    Wow, super tasty freshly prepared crepes. We really enjoyed them. The place has a very thoughtful and cute French atmosphere.

    Quick service and yummy crepes! The decor indoor and outdoor were great, I loved the staff uniforms--gave a great aesthetic that fit the "Little City" atmosphere. A must try for Falls Church locals.

    Always get the whipped cream!!

    What a gem! Best pistachio latte EVER. Great service with all the frills. Infused water is standard at your table. Amazing crepes! Took my daughter for a mommy/daughter date and this was perfect!

    Delivery review ahead…read more I was craving a really good breakfast sandwich and this place delivered just that! When I talk about quality sandwiches, Semicolon cafe wins! The packaging was handled with care so both of my sandwiches arrived nice and hot. I ordered the B.E.L.T and a grilled cheese. The B.E.L.T was a conversation starter, the bread was buttery and smooth-melts right in your mouth after each bite. The egg with corn, never tried that combo but honey, it was fantastic!!!! The bacon was quite generous and prepared with the perfect crisp and the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh, complementing the sandwich. The sauce on top was a shining star! So much flavor spread evenly throughout the sandwich. My boyfriend loved his grilled cheese sandwich which came with bacon and spinach. Definitely glad that I found this place! I'll order again and this time I want to try their lattes.

Their Korean style sandwiches on that soft, fluffy bread are amazing. Highly recommend the bulgogi and the BLT, both packed with flavor and generously stuffed. The presentation is adorable too, served in these cute little boxes that make it feel extra special. The space itself has a really cute, modern aesthetic. Clean white tones, nice lighting, and a cozy chic vibe. It's the perfect spot to hang out with friends or get some work done. Will definitely be back again!

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.

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.

It's become a favorite spot for my daughter and me, and we've even hosted several hangouts for her friends there. It's the perfect low-key environment for a small group. The interior has a great vibe; kids (and likely plenty of adults) love making the origami cranes that decorate the room. My daughter and her friends always head straight for the traditional seating area with the pillows on the floor, though there are plenty of regular tables if you prefer the standard setup. On the menu, the Beef Banh Mi is a standout. It's easily the best you'll find in this part of town without making the trek out to the Eden Center. The meat is juicy, the roll is excellent, and they offer it with or without an egg. The secret stars of the menu, however, are the basil fries. They are excellent and come with a fantastic house-made dipping sauce that pulls it all together. While my daughter is the boba fan of the duo, I stick to the coffee and smoothies. Just be cautious with the Vietnamese coffee--if you aren't a seasoned veteran, that caffeine kick will have your heart racing for hours. The staff is consistently fast, friendly, and efficient. It's a local neighborhood staple that we'll keep coming back to. My only complaint is that they are not a coffee shop for early AM!

Conversations are at a minimum and despite the attached restaurant you can still hear yourself and the other person without yelling. One thing I appreciate about Best Buns is the consistency. Whether it's been months or years between visits, the quality never seems to change.
