Obsessed with matcha anything, I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place while waiting for my mom at Zara. I was happily surprised by the quality of matcha here. The soft serve was very creamy, bold in flavor and was satisfying with every bite. Both the matcha and black sesame latte were creamy and flavorful. I also sampled the strawberry soft serve and was impressed with the sweetness and balance of flavor. Everything was delicious! read more

I stepped foot in Tysons Corner for the first time in a year and a half just to come here! I've had matcha lattes from this place before and loved them, so I wanted to try the soft serve ice cream. For the soft serve flavors, it seems like they usually have matcha (of course) and vanilla, but they had a lychee flavor when I stopped by. I got a matcha + lychee swirl in a cup with a waffle cone to top it off. So good! Creamy and flavorful, but not too heavy, and the crunchiness of the cone added the perfect contrast. This location is a stand, not a storefront, but there's a little seating area with a few tables. Service is friendly and quick. A great place to get all the matcha drinks and desserts you can dream of! read more

It's not often but when we're in the area we try to stop by. We get the large maiko special which includes your choice of soft serve (vanilla or matcha), matcha chiffon cake, adzuki beans, agar jelly and candies chestnuts. It's a nice combination of textures and complimentary flavors. Priced at $7.8 medium and $9.2 large. In my opinion even though it's tasty, I don't think the price justifies what you're getting (-1). read more

Hojicha (limited offering) soft serve was AMAZING and should be offered regularly. The unique flavor has a perfect balance/taste and definitely outshines Matcha and Vanilla. Please bring it back for all the Hojicha fans out there! read more

Matcha Cafe Maiko - Tysons - Desserts Near Me - Tysons Corner, Virginia

Situated by the entrance with a couple tables, in between Zara and Victoria's secret. They offer a slightly limited selection compared to the main branch in Centreville. The drink selection is outstanding, there is enough variety and can be adjusted to your taste. We tried the Matcha Lavender and Matcha Rose with almond/regular milk. The Black Sesame Double Fromage cheesecake is highly recommended. Just right, not too bitter or sweet. One minor nit - when paying for items, there is no 10% tip option. This should be mandatory for limited service spots. The custom tip option is too cumbersome to use. read more

Can you imagine how much easier it allowed all us Maryland folks to no longer drive to Centreville for Maiko? Love that they opened in Tysons so we can get to our matcha cravings easier. This place is super popular because theres always a line. It moves fast and the service is great! I like the freshly made waffles for the soft serve and the matcha ice cream is that perfect blend of sweet and bitter. The topping winners are the mochi and green tea cake here! read more

Not a big fan of matcha but this place has the flavor that's closest to what I had in Japan. Very strong with a hint of bitterness. So I usually get the mixed soft serve so the vanilla can balance it out a little. My favorite would definitely be the hojicha latte! They do tend to get busy on the weekends but I think they have improved on their speed. The staff is always friendly and helpful with selection. I like that they have a few tables and seats so usually just sit and hangout with friends. read more

M A T C H A. M A T C H A. M A T C H A I'm so excited that matcha cafe Maiko has opened a small location closer to Maryland. This kiosk in Tyson's with attached seating is the cutest thing I have seen. Even though it's quite small it seems like they are still able to provide all of the same options as their home location. The service is quick and the matcha is prepared authentically in a bowl with a wooden whisk. We got the medium chocolate matcha latte which was a perfect balance between bitter matcha and decadent and sweet chocolate. The cashier was very helpful explaining to us what the difference was between the different drinks and flavors. I recommend coming here whenever you're at Tyson's! It's a dessert that just right and won't leave you feeling guilty. read more

I was excited for the chance to try Matcha Cafe Maiko. I've tried a few other times but the line was always long. This time, it was short! The staff was friendly and helpful. They specialize in all things matcha. They let me try the two drinks that I was deciding between, the matcha latte and hojicha latte. I decided on an iced hojicha latte because I liked the nutty flavor. My drink was delicious and flavorful. I definitely want to come back and try the match ice cream. The desserts looked delicious! read more

I got the matcha ice cream cone even though it was really cold out because I had to try out this new matcha place in Tysons. The matcha flavor wasn't too sweet which I like because it seemed more authentic to what I used to get in Japan. It is more on the bitter side so if you're ordering and you're expecting for something sweet- it's not so just to make sure those expectations are set. I would come again to try out their other combinations with toppings next time. read more

Each time we visit Matcha Cafe Maiko, the wait for the matcha latte is always long but so worth it. I always get mine with oat milk and let me just say, this place using the authentic Japanese matcha powder do make the latte delicious. I had it iced as well but nothing beats the hot matcha latte. We even tried the matcha ice cream so delicious and silky that you can't just have one spoonful. If you never had matcha latte or matcha flavored ice cream, you're in Tyson's corner for shopping , you must try Matcha Cafe Maiko. If you are sensitive to dairy, you can also substitute for almond or oat milk. It's absolutely delicious! Please be patient while they make the matcha; it's definitely WORTH the wait!!!! read more

So happy that cafe maiko is now in tysons! Such a convenient location. A big fan of this spot ever since trying them in SF and was not disappointed with my recent trip. Went during their soft opening so not all items were available. Our matcha was super good and the flavor was consistent with my initial try in SF - one of the worst things is when quality and taste are inconsistent between location, but with this location, you don't have to worry! There's comfy booth seating on the side of the stand and a bit of overflow outside of Starbucks/VS. There's also a cute photo booth for your matcha! read more

Finally tried Cafe Maiko recently. The kiosk is in the area between Victoria's Secret and Zara on the second floor. I had the matcha Maiko special, which is like a soft serve parfait with chestnuts, mochi, red bean and cake. The combination tasted great together. Look forward to revisiting once they've worked out their kinks from the first few weeks of operations. A scrumptious addition to the DC metro area that sells matcha soft serve! read more

I got the Maiko Special! It had two chestnuts, matcha vanilla soft serve mix, matcha cake, red bean paste, warmed cornflakes and jelly at the bottom. Everything combined just balances perfectly. Everything tasted fresh, served fast, and had good customer service. I would say it was $8 for the small dessert, but worth the money! Will be back again definitely! read more

It is a stand between Victoria Secret and Zara on the second floor near the Starbucks. It was a new type of pop up for me and that is what enticed me to go there to try it out. However, it was quite slow for getting two drinks and it wasn't going to go any faster. I think they had to look around for the ingredients at the time. Also, there was an issue with a dessert, which they didn't have, but we already paid so had to refund that portion. Well, was it worth the wait? Not really. I couldn't taste anything special from my drink and the other drinks that we got were okay at best. The seating area is sparse as it was meant to walk around and drink, but I would rather sit for tea. Either or, because the taste never pulled me in, I finished it quickly because it was pricey and went on my way to explore the rest of the mall. read more

This is a matcha heaven indeed. If you want to get your daily dose of caffeine but hate coffee, this is your place. Located at Tysons' Corner mall, it is a small kiosk serving a variety of matcha drinks both hot and cold ones. Some of the best features are their extensive menu items, including topping you've probably never heard of, and their great customer service as well as their speedy service. It's really difficult for me to list my recommendations as it was my first time trying this place but they categorize their menu by the types of drinks so grab a menu and explore. I grabbed #17 (forgot the name) and it was quite refreshing after walking around the mall and the quality of the matcha and whipped cream (?) on top was a great add. Solid +1 for having good number of seating for a small spot. It's strength is also its weakest: I gave it -1 because of the extensive menu items with unique names which made it very difficult to pick one. My recommendation would be to simplify it by picking one drink item from each type and letting the customer to customize it with toppings and such. That way you would know exactly you were getting. Overall, it's a great place for summer or just after running around the mall. Note: I don't know how they make their ice but it was easy to crunch, so try it. read more

Matcha Cafe Maiko - Tysons - Number 17. Good - Desserts Near Me - Tysons Corner, Virginia

Head here if you love anything and everything Matcha! This new addition to Tyson's Corner mall has reduced my drive to Maryland for my favorite swirl. I was here with another friend on a Friday afternoon and was had a 10-15 mins wait before we got to the counter. The person at the counter was sweet enough to give us samples before we decided what we wanted. While my friend got the Matcha and roasted matcha swirl, I got the Matcha latte float. Both of them were perfection! Reduced one star since the waffle cone was soggy and not crisp, the self service counter had no been refilled with spoons. We saw people use drinking straws to eat ice cream! There were only two people behind the counter taking orders and making them. These things aside, I'll definitely keep going back! read more

I first went to the Centreville location with friends so I was happy to find out there was a location at Tysons Corner too! I love the swirl soft serve, the matcha is not too sweet and perfectly complements the vanilla flavor. I thought the service was a bit slow in making my shaved ice at first, but I realize that there are many components that go in it and I could see that the staff were very detail-oriented and just wanted to make sure that it looks perfect! Definitely one of my favorite matcha soft serves in NOVA :) read more

I was at the mall and saw this cray long line and never heard of thIs spot so I knew it must be good. If you are a matcha lover you would love this spot. Great soft serve, lattes, and different matcha drinks. The menu had a lot to choose from. I ordered the special which was an ice cream parfait, it had the matcha soft serve and layers of matcha cake, mochi, cornflakes, sweet beans, and jelly. It was pretty huge and I thought it had a lot of the matcha cake, I couldn't finish it. The flavor of the soft serve was very good and definitely taste like matcha. I would want to go back and try something else on the menu. read more

Cute little pop up in the mall. Stopped by after dinner one night for the perfect desert. Dessert drink : Matcha Kuromitsu Kinako. It's a very rich creamy drink so a medium was plenty. The taste of the kuromitsu and kinako flavors are light, making the matcha taste just a little bit roasty sweet with a soy bean twist. Refreshing drink : Kokuto Iced Hojicha with Jelly. This one tasted very earthy for a green tea. It had a lot of sediments and the jelly was mushed so there was a lot going, but a very different drink. read more

Ok I think this is the first time I've really had matcha and...I really don't think I like it. However, I think if I was a matcha fan, this place would be bomb. My favorite part about my order was the cake and mochi. I really wanted the swirl ice cream (matcha and vanilla) but they ran out of vanilla so I had to settle. I'd honestly probably go again and try to just get the mochi and cake toppings with vanilla ice cream read more

Let's start this review off by saying... I love matcha. Okay, now that that's out... this place had a huge line so naturally, we had to try this out. Prices are a little off-putting ($5.50 for ice cream!?) but again... matcha. I went with the matcha latte float (medium: ~$7), and it was okay. I expected more but it's pretty much matcha latte with soft serve matcha. For the price, I think there should be other toppings on it (for aesthetic purposes, too). The menu is also kind of overwhelming. There are SO many things to choose from. I would recommend a "Top 5" list to choose from for people who don't really know what matcha is. read more

I've been seeing this cafe pop up around places, so I finally gave in and decided to try it (I never thought about it before because I'm not a huge matcha fan, but the pics looked good and I was craving something sweet!). We ordered the Maiko Special and Kokuto Matcha Float - unfortunately they were out of vanilla soft serve so we both had to make do with just matcha soft serve. A little unfortunate cause I was hoping to get mixed soft serve. The Maiko Special was topped with a couple mocha balls and a really yummy chestnut. Under the soft serve, there were pieces of green tea cake, corn flakes (which added a great crunch), jelly, and red bean paste. The dessert and drink were honestly better than my expectation and didn't have the in-your-face matcha taste that some other flavored things do. I enjoyed them both, though the soft serve got to be a little too much and I couldn't finish it. read more

If you've been to a Matcha Cafe Maiko you can pretty much expect the same thing here, which is a good thing since the desserts they offer are really good. I've been to the one in Centerville and I definitely enjoyed it then and I definitely enjoyed it now. This time around I got a swirl of match and vanilla in a waffle cone. The sweetness of the vanilla balanced pretty well with the matcha and I was pretty satisfied with the experience. The cone was also very very nice, it had a nice crunch and break when you broke off a bite but biting into it was soft and buttery and rich. Given I'd come here for the matcha soft serve I am definitely not disappointed and I don't think you would be either, but if you're here for some of their coffee stuff your mileage may vary. read more

Quite frankly whenever I hear about Matcha anything I roll my eyes because it seems to be one of those Asian food trends that everyone is doing or attempting to do. That being said, this place is good. The matcha quality is quite good and there isn't an excessive amount of sugar and cream to offset the earthy, bitter quality of the green tea. Alot of people complain when matcha is this bitter but I welcome it! This place holds its own among good matcha in the area and it's welcome. Also I found it reasonably priced, a waffle cone will put you back around $5.50 and a sundae will cost around 6? 7? Lol I forget. Also in the sundae or the deluxe or whatever they call it, the mochi that is served atop the ice cream and the shaved ice is wonderfully soft. My only complaint is that the ice is a bit coarse and could be shaved finer but I'm glad that the business didn't shave it with milk or some sort of emulsifier. The clean matcha flavor and the simple presentation makes this a refreshing treat that can be enjoyed at any time of the year. read more

Stopped by to check out this new opening! I got the kokuto matcha latte and the regular matcha latte. The matcha latte is really good, with a good strong matcha flavor and the perfect amount of sweetness and creaminess. The kokuto matcha latte has the black sugar jelly, which was really good too but made the drink a bit too sweet for me. If you're craving something extra sweet definitely go for the kokuto matcha latte! But if not, the regular matcha latte is good. I'll be back to try their other menu items. read more

Pretty good ice cream. I was craving their green tea ice cream and the first day of the roaring twenties seems like a good reason to come back. Their ice cream is on point but their hojicha seems hit or miss. First time I had it, it was soooooo good but this time around it wasn't as sweet and tasted really powdery. But the green tea is good... so I'll come back for that.... read more

Every time I go to Tyson's I visit Matcha Cafe Maiko. The best part of this cafe is it has more than just matcha. Often I end up being at Tyson's late in the evening and am a little wary of caffeine. Fortunately, there are desserts that don't include a lot of caffeine and the yuzu and sesame slushes don't contain tea. The tea is really good though and I appreciate the inclusion of hojicha on the menu. read more

Matcha and soft serve, how can you go wrong? Thankfully they don't here!

Perfect for a quick snack break from shopping! I love matcha and icecream so, getting matcha icecream was a no brainer choice for me. I was not sure how strong the matcha would be, so I did not want to risk just getting matcha, so I got the vanilla swirl too. It was a good combo. The matcha was not bitter, but Im used to matcha flavor, so it may be to people that have never had matcha before. I would definitely just get plain matcha next time. I'm excited to come back and try the other options on the menu :) read more

OVERALL: solid place for matcha ice cream if you're in the Tysons area! I think the matcha is pretty high quality - did give it a 4 star because I think Bon Matcha over in DC is better. But would recommend if you're in the area. I went here during their soft opening and got a matcha soft serve. I wanted to try one of their fancier desserts, which seemed like a ton of food at an affordable price, but settled on this because I wasn't sure if I could finish the other dessert if I ordered it. I think the flavor is pretty good, not too strong but definitely there. I enjoyed the cone as well. I think it's a good place for an ice cream enthusiast, but if you enjoy a very strong matcha flavor, you might find it a bit weak. Definitely would come again if I go to the mall. read more
