    Tofu appetizer and thai tea
    Daweon K.

    My favorite place to go for pho in the DMV. The broth is flavorful and they give you a generous portion of meat. Their sate sauce is one of the best I've ever had. A tip for those who visit - once you finish your meal, pay at the front instead of waiting for a server to hand you your bill.

    The kids' size was perfect. I can't eat too much, and the smaller serving was great for me. I had fatty brisket and beef steak in my pho, the flavor was good and the broth great. Summer rolls were good...a little thin but good.

    Saturday night 45 minutes before closing and restaurant was packed. First time trying and we thought it was pretty good pho - probably only second to Pho 75. The staff is very nice and cordial, and you can tell there are a lot of repeat/ familiar customers here. Only downside is the price - very expensive for a bowl of pho.

    After we ate at El Fogon, my brother and I were still hungry so we swung by to this cafe. It's located in Kingstowne area across from Giant and Le Madeleine. Theres limited of seating but manageable. My brother ordered the eye round steak and brisket pho; I ordered two items: the lemongrass beef vermicelli and eye round steak pho. They were all delicious and the proteins were tender and moist. The vermicelli bowl was refreshing and colorful. Our servers were distracted by technology and we had to wave both of them down for refills. The restaurant itself was clean. I would make another visit in the near future to try other items on their menu.

    DELICIOUS food, some of the best pho we've had in a while. Although the prices are slightly higher than some other pho restaurants in the area, it is totally worth it! The portions are huge, the broth is very flavorful, and there's lots of meat in the soup. The service was very fast and friendly, and it was very clean inside the facility. I'll be looking forward to coming back here!

    Where is the picture of the pho? It was too good that I couldn't take a moment to take a picture of it. Base of the soup is quite nice except i felt like they used lots of MSG. Quite busy on Sunday afternoon means this place is good. Service was prompt and I would like to come again

    Spotted this spot out the corner of my eye, so I just had to try, because I love Pho! Upon entering I noticed they had many customers, so that's always a good sign. The place is not very big, but cozy if you like to dine in. The service was good and quick, no long wait, Which was nice. The pho was quite tasty, had a nice and delicious broth and had several options on the table to spice things up! The spring rolls were also very good. I would definitely go again. If you're in the Kingstown area and would like a good tasty bite to eat, try them out. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    Food was good. There was no wait. Ambiance nice because of mellow music. Customer service was CRAP. Was not greeted when entering. When the guy took the order, he looked annoyed the entire time. He didn't say thank you or talked to us at all. He just looked like he hated his job. The server who brought out the food was also not friendly. Com tam was mid. Like 5/10. Pho was okay. 7/10. Eggrolls 5/10.

However, the young male staff is rather rude and indifferent. First, off there is a Wi-Fi available "Caphe Guest" (see photo). I asked one staffer what the password was, because Caphe is in one of those sections of Old Town where wireless access, like Verizon, is notoriously poor. The guy gave me some garbled answer and walked away. Alrighty, so I asked another staffer and he said he didn't know what the password was and walked away. That leads up to my order of chicken pho. I asked for no cilantro and that same waiter repeated my request for no cilantro. But when the pho was brought to my table, the green in the pho looked suspiciously like cilantro. I asked the waiter about it. He looked at the pho and said it was not cilantro. I took a sip and quickly determined there was cilantro in the pho. When I tried to get my server's attention, as he was standing in back of the counter, he saw me and haughtily turned away. So, I took the pho up to counter and asked that my order be remade. To Caphe's credit, Caphe did correctly remake my order.. But the pho broth was brown and had an odd canned flavor. It just wasn't very good.

STEAMED CHICKEN MOMO (6) - 13 The chicken momos sat on top of a creamy chili garlic sauce that was a bit spicy. The momos were juicy and the filling was soft and flavorful. Good appetizer to share between the three of us. BUTTER CHICKEN - 19 Creamy and rich, tasted a bit sweeter than I was used to, almost like a chicken tikka masala. Pretty standard, but got the job done. Plenty of chicken in our curry. SAAG PANEER - 19 Vibrant green with the perfect loose, creamy texture that wasn't too chunky. Good amount of paneer in our portion. The spinach actually tasted like spinach, which I find rare at other restaurants that also serve saag/palak paneer. Definitely one of the better ones I've had! GARLIC NAAN - 4 Pretty typical, but good nonetheless. It was a bit greasy than I would have liked, but went well with the curries when we wanted to switch between bites of the basmati rice.

    Delicate Hot Chocolate…read more I have long been an admirer of fine hot chocolate. Traditionally, I would visit Starbucks or a contemporary coffeehouse, only to receive what often felt like mocha syrup blended with steamed milk--pleasant, perhaps, but rarely memorable. This morning marked my first visit to Tatte Bakery & Café in Old Town Alexandria where the hot chocolate proved to be an unexpected delight. The associate explained that it was prepared with semisweet chocolate and warm milk. Intrigued, I ordered a small and chose to enjoy it outdoors. The price was refreshingly reasonable, while the bakery's bright interior and refined ambiance created an inviting first impression. My drink arrived within approximately five minutes, presented elegantly in a cup and saucer. The temperature was perfectly warm--comforting without being excessively hot--and the overall presentation was quietly sophisticated but has room for improvement. Then came the taste.... The texture was exceptionally silky and smooth, with no grainy residue, excessive sweetness, or bitter aftertaste. It was rich without being heavy and indulgent without becoming overwhelming. Even better, it left behind no awkward crown of foam. I have enjoyed hot chocolate in Sicily, where the experience was quite literally a cup of melted chocolate--decadent, dense, and almost dessert-like. Tatte's interpretation was more delicate and restrained, yet equally satisfying in its own way. Tatte has now earned first place in my personal ranking. There is, however, still an opportunity to elevate the service experience. A cloth napkin and small spoon presented alongside the drink would add a more polished touch, while a subtle soupçon of finely shaved chocolate would enhance both the visual presentation and the final sip. Overall, I award Tatte's hot chocolate an A-. I look forward to seeing whether it can achieve an even higher distinction upon my next visit.

    Let's face it. I like Tatte a latte!…read more Beautiful pastry case, inviting treats, Parisian-style cafe. It's a bit inconvenient that you pay at the counter but pick up hot drinks at the bar.

    4 stars for the food 4 stars for the ambiance…read more3 stars for the service on the water refills, which was sporadic at best. Last night I brought a couple of friends over to the Sisters Thai in Alexandria ... because I had had good experiences in the past. We were seated at our table of four, and had to wait 20 mins to be served water from the start. That was unusual - and although the restaurant was busy it was not packed, so the delay was odd. We ordered the food which was great - high recommendations for the branzino, the crispy eggplant, the roti curry and the mango & sticky rice. The water service was challenging; at one point during the meal when a server came to do a refill, she spilled the water on the table near the food dishes - apologized - but didn't clean up! (It was not a few drops - it was a sizeable amount that warranted wiping up since our group had to reach over for the food dishes in the center). She took off after right after spilling it - and didn't come back! So I eventually caught the eye of another sever and asked for the water to be wiped down. The evening went on - the meal really noteworthy ... but water was clearly becoming more and more of an issue - and this was critical especially considering that the roti curry was spicy! After yet another 20 minutes of trying to catch the eye of anyone with a pitcher I had to get up and request water from the bar area. So although the evening was pleasant it was somewhat disruptive with this lack of coordination - which is really is a basic of any establishment. I would go back again for the food - although I'm disappointed that I brought friends along to try the restaurant and the service was not as expected. As I write this I want to add that if it was a one-off with a water delay I would understand - but it was consistently overlooked, without a spillage being wiped promptly that started to create a less than satisfactory experience. Thank you in advance to the Sisters Thai for more training for their staff on enhancing the customer experience.
