    Really cute atmosphere! The French-inspired decor gives it a vintage, boujee vibe that definitely stands out. The space is pretty small, so we waited about 15-20 minutes, but the server was super nice and friendly. The food was good and flavorful, but honestly, the prices are what got me. The portions were pretty standard, but noticeably more expensive than other Vietnamese restaurants in Eden Center. For similar portions and flavors, you could definitely find cheaper options nearby. I'm glad we tried it, but I don't think we'll be back because of the prices. Overall, it's giving boujee Vietnamese restaurant in the middle of Eden Center.

    I really enjoyed my crab soup which was just a unique and aromatic flavor! I also got the pork and rice which was a very large portion, and enjoyed the sides. The spring rolls were very standard and I feel like that wasn't worth for $10 as you can get this for half the price at other places. The iced coffee was also overpriced. Overall, the ambiance is nice and can tell this place is a bit more upscale. The service was also standard. I went during the soft opening so maybe service will be a bit better by now.

    I think it should've been a red flag when I saw only two tables eating and all the locals moving on after seeing the menu they placed outside. Very risky to open a 'fine-dining' Vietnamese restaurant inside Eden Center since you can find similar dishes for cheaper and more flavorful - unfortunately, that was the case. The fried rice was bland and all you tasted was fish sauce. When I read 'fermented' in a dish, I'm expecting lots of spices and flavor, zero - the sliver of lime wedge had more acidity than the entire salad. Service was attentive and came to refill our waters whenever it was lower than half, hence the one extra star.

    A modern traditional Vietnamese restaurant located in the Eden Garden center. The restaurant shares a store front speciality food/gift shop. The service is quick and friendly. You can expect to find all the traditional Vietnamese street food classics along with dishes that you would expect to find at a Vietnamese home dinner. They also carry a variety of Lau (hot pots) that are worth trying.

    We decided to stop into TamTams (connected with Viet Gourmet shop). It was still a soft opening menu. It is a cute and refreshing Vietnamese restaurant within the usually loud and crowded Eden Center. The music is relaxing jazzy instrumental without being too loud. Staff is polite, attentive (but not too much). The food presentation was very nice, good portion size, and very flavorful. The dishes had a nice flavor profiles and tones. Definitely different from standard Vietnamese comfort foods but has elements of it. We enjoyed our meal. The soft opening had limited items but enough choices. So we ordered 4 dishes for 2 people. Very nice place for a date, friends, & even family for a more "fancy" meal. Excited to see their growth and more items on the menu.

    We had a wonderful experience at TamTam during their soft opening! The restaurant is beautifully decorated with a modern, stylish atmosphere, and everything looked very clean, even the restroom. The staff greeted us as soon as we walked in, and their uniforms looked neat and professional. We ordered the Passion Fruit Honey Tea with Palm Seeds, Fish Maw & Crab Soup, Stir-Fried Mushrooms with Vegetables, Cơm Tấm Sườn Đặc Biệt TamTam, Steamed Clams with Lemongrass, and Grilled Pork Jowl with Fermented Tofu Sauce, Okra, and Mushrooms. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, not too salty. The clams were especially fresh, and the sauce was delicious! The service was excellent. They checked on us throughout our meal, brought extra napkins without us asking, and kept our table clean. We enjoyed the food so much that we also ordered the Salmon Crudo TamTam and Golden Crab Glass Noodles to take home. Since this is their soft opening and they are still very new, small mistakes may happen. I hope people will be patient and supportive of this new small business. They may not be perfect yet, but honestly, I did not notice a single flaw during the entire time we were there. We will definitely be back!

I followed Janice on Instagram expecting to see wedding content. But in fact, she uses her business Instagram account to share all sorts of progressive political opinions. I largely agree with these opinions, so this didn't bother me much, until she posted about her belief (which some might see as woke, others might actually see as misogynistic) that physiologically male athletes should be able to compete in the women's sporting category based on their gender self-identification. As demonstrated by recent polling, this is a remarkably controversial issue to post about on one's business social media account. It would be one thing if she posted this on her own personal account, but again, this was on her *business* Instagram. When I tried to engage with Janice in dialog about this issue, politely representing my perspective as a lifelong feminist and former NCAA athlete, she was condescending and dismissive and implied that I (a lifelong Democrat) was "Republican." It is a very interesting decision to use her business social media to share such opinions. If you agree with Janice, maybe you'll be delighted to work with someone who shares your values. But if you disagree with her on even one issue, you may wish to find someone with a more judicious media strategy.

    Janice is organized, knowledgeable, practical, and has great taste. Any event that she plans, from…read morea small baby shower to a large wedding, is going to be fabulous. She has excellent connections and vendor relationships in the DMV area. She will help you be realistic with your timing and budget. She's straightforward, honest, and also - tons of fun. She's also incredibly thoughtful and pays attention to the small details. Any event you plan with Janice will be well managed and beautiful.

    I took my two kids ( under 6 yrs) on a Sunday mid-day and it was very busy. It's been very cold…read moreoutside and I think many parents needed their kids out and about doing something. It was definitely over-crowded and quite hard to find a table to sit down. We eventually found one right at the back of the store. The kids had the best time but scramble employees were no where to be found! There was no one monitoring kids. My kid got hurt a few times by slightly older kids and it was quite chaotic. The staff were not cleaning at all. You have to remove your shoes before entering the play area but the toilets are located inside the play designated area which means you have to go into the bathroom with socks on which is very gross. They should allow shoes in the bathroom area. Also the soap dispensers were empty and the lady that cleans the bathroom just hung out in the bathroom not really cleaning or filling the soap. The cafe - there are food options for kids and adults. We did try the kids pizza and French fries. The pizza was fine( cheese) but the fries were not good. It tasted like they fried it in very old oil. They do have coffee but I did not try it as the didn't have an option for skim milk. They do not allow outside food or drink but no one seems to really monitor that. Security - ok so this is non-existent. There is a door that divides outside area with inside play area but kids can easily open the door and leave the premises. The lady that stands by the door doesn't monitor kids matches with their guardians. She just opens and closes the door and often she is not there at all. They do not give wristbands at all or any form of security feature. So watch your kids closely while you are there as once they go into that massive play area it's difficult to locate them. The kids seemed to enjoy it as they don't worry about germs , dirt or food. I mean it's fine for an hour or so but honestly it was the last resort when deciding on a place to take the kids too. They also charge the adults an entry fee!!! ‍ I mean it's not like we are playing in the kids areas . I think we paid $55 for entry (2 kids and 2 adults). Would I go back? Not by choice but if the kids asked then I would consider it for an hour or two. ( definitely not on a weekend though).

    This location is probably a 3.5 for me. The pros: it's a great place to take young kids, especially…read moreduring inclement weather, giving them a chance to burn off some energy. We went there during a recent heat wave, and it was such a relief to have a place to play with air conditioning (and that wasn't tearing up our own home). There are activities for kids of various ages, including a baby-centric exploration area and a huge maze that's good for elementary aged kids. There are lots of big soft blocks to stack, ball pits, and cute themed play areas. But it's definitely for younger kids. Tweens and up probably wouldn't be interested. The cons: Supervision is minimal and some kids get very rowdy. Rules seem to be enforced in a haphazard way. I've seen kids standing on the windowsills and banging on the glass, stacking toys to dive onto the ground, and piling four at a time onto the slides. You should keep an eye on the toddler crowd to make sure that older kids aren't shoving them. Lots of parents grab a drink or food to relax while their kids run wild. If that's your vibe, this place is a good fit. But it's also good for parents who want to be a bit more hands on--you can let your child explore while keeping them in close sight for much of the space. Also remember to wear socks!

They paid for chicken and carne, and only chicken was served the day of. On top of all of that, when I told the manager an employee took money out of my purse, he called me a liar and blamed the guests even though I knew everyone at the party and know they are trustworthy. When I asked for the security videos and the employee's name to file a police report he refused and said he would just give me the money back. I did get my money back, but I don't trust that that employee will be fired or that this is the first time a situation like this has happened in this establishment. To protect yourself, your guests, your special event, etc. I recommend not coming to this establishment ever. They are dishonest, accusatory, and have an overall lack of character.

I recognize that the Magic Duel takes huge pride in 5 star reviews on Yelp, which I deeply respect. But I did wish that we had seen the show in a different venue. I am no stage expert, but lights and sound do matter a lot in delivery of a magic show for a skeptic like me, going because the significant other loves magic shows. With better lighting, things would have been more "magical" (thinking bottles.) I was also surprised that a bubble artist, as good as she was in her profession, was considered a magician. After some quick research, you will end up at Magic Duel in this genre, so please go to Dupont or Georgetown.

Mark Phillips and Ryan Phillips were both terrific. The one we voted for did indeed win, but they were both great! The Saturday we were there, there were two performances. We chose the 5pm one. It's a fast-paced show that kept us laughing, intrigued and highly entertained. A very fun, wonderful way to spend entertainment dollars in DC. Not a bad seat in the house! This is downstairs in the historic Mayflower Hotel, nice and close to the Farragut North Metro Stop. Definitely appropriate for all ages. Highly recommend!
