Reliable and consistent for a casual French-style café…read more The coconut cake is moist, simple, and clearly on the sweeter side--good if you want something indulgent. The crème brûlée is smooth and rich, also leaning sweet rather than balanced. Drinks follow the same pattern: creamy, mild, and approachable, with the whipped cream version noticeably more dessert-like. Warm atmosphere, efficient service, and fair pricing. 5/5 within its category--predictable, satisfying, and well executed for what it is.

This hidden gem shines brighter than my tita when she hits a high score on the karaoke!…read more Solid spot for quick, vibey, Filipino eats. Side note: don't go here thinking you're about to get some traditional Filipino dishes. Come with an open mind and an empty tummy! You'll be pleasantly surprised. The space is spotless, easy on the eyes, and perfectly cozy - minimalist décor with just enough charm to make you want to stay awhile. There's plenty of seating for the whole fam (yes, even all your titos and titas). Only one kind gentleman was running the show during my visit, and let me tell you - he handled everything like a pro. Even with our big order, everything came out quickly and with a smile. Bonus points for the snacks, ready-to-eat treats, and vending machines to hold you over while you wait. But honestly, the food is worth every second. Now let's talk about some of the eats: * Ube waffle: light, fluffy, and just the right amount of sweet - the powdered sugar and ube syrup complemented the flavor instead of stealing the spotlight. The chicken tenders were well-seasoned and paired well with the waffle. Whole plate was aesthetically pleasing and delish! * Lumpia: absolute fire. My only regret? Not ordering a mountain of them. * Longanisa breakfast sandwich: solid and yummy, but I wouldn't write my lola about it. Egg cooked to perfection though! * Silog breakfast bowl: oh. my. GAWD. Flavor bomb! The garlic fried rice, tender pork, egg, and peppers all danced together like they were meant to be. I'd come back just for that bowl - and the lumpia, of course.

Bike Lane Brewing Café -- 9/10…read more Such a cute spot with a really nice, laid-back atmosphere! I had a cup of wine and really enjoyed it. The service was great too -- everyone was attentive, friendly, and welcoming. My favorite part is definitely how cyclist-friendly this place is. I LOVE that you can access it right from the bike trail, which makes it such a perfect stop during or after a ride. Great atmosphere, great service, and such a cool concept. Definitely a spot I'd come back to, especially on a cycling day!

The service the few times we've popped by (mainly for coffee) has been questionable. Customer service is definitely not a priority. Coffee was excellent so I'll prolly pop by again while at Skatequest. I'd be interested in trying the food too. They have sandwiches and pho (apparently).

First Watch, located on Sunset Hills Rd in Reston near Reston Town Center, offers fresh, innovative…read morebreakfast, brunch, and lunch options in a bright, modern, and clean environment. Known for its breakfast favorites like omelets, avocado toast, and healthy juices, and for quick, friendly service, it is a popular spot for breakfast, brunch, and lunch, serving tasty, hearty, and healthier choices. We tried several dishes, all of which were excellent, and we highly recommend: The Strawberry Tres Leches French Toast is a seasonal specialty that combines classic French toast with a Hispanic dessert. It features thick slices of challah soaked in rich custard, topped with fresh strawberries, dulce de leche, whipped cream, and gingerbread cookie crumbs. This sweet, indulgent brunch treat is great for sharing and highly recommended. The Elevated Egg Sandwich is a hearty breakfast option with an over-easy egg, Gruyère cheese, smashed avocado, lemon-dressed arugula, and mayonnaise on a brioche bun. It's fresh, creamy, savory, with bacon adding crunch and flavor. First Watch's Avocado Toast features toasted whole-grain bread topped with smashed avocado, olive oil, lemon, and Maldon salt, served with two cage-free eggs for a satisfying start. Kale Tonic is a refreshing, nutrient-packed green juice made with kale, Fuji apple, English cucumber, and lemon. It offers a crisp, balanced, and slightly sweet flavor, making it an ideal choice for health-conscious diners.

I had at the $14 half and half lunch deal, which got me a half Monterey Jack and turkey melt sammie and a half avocado Cobb salad. I was going to eat half of this but it was so good that I ate the entire thing. The sandwich on brioche bread was really great. I really liked the sweet bread that the ham and cheese was on. Service (5/5): They were so nice here - service is great! Ambiance (3/5): It is a nice upscale diner, so the ambiance was not great. I didn't mind it, but it wasn't a fancy place.

The storefront itself is cute and there's a fair amount of seating. I will say the parking was kind of weird, It's not a super obvious place and we ended up driving right by it. Parked a couple blocks down and walked over, but otherwise you should be able to find a spot no problem. The baristas were super friendly and patient with us while we looked over the menu. My friend got the (Real!) strawberry match and I got the banana cream matcha. Both were super delicious! The strawberry did taste very fresh and real, and the banana was the perfect sweet treat to satisfy my craving. Overall, I will definitely be back and would recommend to anybody in the area.

I've been looking for a strawberry matcha that has a creamy rich texture, with the perfect ratio of strawberry and matcha. I do appreciate the fact that they use real strawberry puree, but it didn't taste balanced to me. My husband got the mocha forest matcha, it was alright. I wasn't a huge fan of either drinks. I also felt the matcha wasn't ceremonial grade. It had that weird Starbucks fishy taste to it. We ordered breakfast as well- the breakfast indeed tasted homemade but not the kind that wowed me. More like okay wonder bread and some protein. Nothing that stood out or tasted unique. I left wishing I had spent the money elsewhere. Overall, I don't live close to this location so I wouldn't go out of my way for it, but if invited I wouldn't be opposed. It's a tiny spot with few seats and a shared small parking lot. It's better for to go orders. Casual ambiance.

The cats and the service once you are in the cafe are fine. If you are trying to CONTACT or get…read moresomeone to CALL YOU BACK, you are out of luck. They never pick up the phone, they never returned our (5) calls, or our (3) voice mail messages. We paid in advance (booked on the site) and they charged us for a missed visit, would have been our second time there, rather than return a call or reschedule. We were at an emergency vet visit with one of our pets. There is no WAY you are too busy to call us back. ALSO, on our first visit we saw that they sold drinks in the lobby, but that you can't eat or drink among the cats. So it's really not as much a cat cafe as it is a kitten wonderland. The kittens are well cared for, the place is clean... the service is NOT great.
