They are a kiosk in the food court. From what I saw, they have pretty steady business. There were a handful of people in line before I was able to place my order. I didn't have to wait very long, though. I got the lychee-flavored lemonade. The portion is massive, and I love it! It's refreshing and tasty. You can customize the sweetness and the ice level. I enjoyed it; it would be a great refreshing drink for the summer.

Then she went and put the Oreo gluten donut on top of the macarons after I just told her my kid had an allergy. The donuts were really good, soft, chewy... we got the churro and Oreo flavor. Would order again. Just be cautious of allergies. And don't expect it to be safe.

This is my first time visiting Donutchew. I was drawn to it being that I'm a donut fiend. I've had…read morefreshly made, delicious mochi donuts before, so this definitely didn't compare. However, I love the decoration, the customer service and the extensive menu, which is the reason for the 4 stars. I originally stopped by to eye the menu and plan my post-lunch coffee-time dessert. I let the barista know that I'll be returning but will order something simple. She suggested the cortado and I said yes immediately, and asked for iced. It was perfectly strong and not watered down. Fast forward a few hours, I returned as promised and she remembered me. We decided to order 2 mochi donuts and a few drinks: -chocolate and cinnamon/sugar donuts -red velvet latte -hazelnut latte -regular latte One thing to note is that she couldn't really describe the drinks. For example, I asked her if the red velvet latte tastes like chocolate or just sugary (since it's basically red-dyed chocolate) and she had no idea. I asked her what are the top drinks (besides what was shown on the board) and she couldn't answer that. But she was friendly. The donuts tasted a little stale and the chocolate frosting was definitely a little too hard. The cinnamon toast crunch was a cute touch to the donut, but again was stale. I wasn't a fan of the red velvet latte, it was pure sugar and aside from the intense pink color didn't taste the way I expected a red velvet cake to taste (most likely because the cream cheese is important to the flavor). The decoration and swag for purchase are all show-stoppers, perfect for photo ops or even social media. They have a cute little photo booth inside as well. There is plenty of seating available. I can't say that I'd return as I'm not a big mall person and wasn't too terribly impressed with the donuts.

I wanted a doughnut, but didn't want the whole thing for myself, so I lightly nudged my sweet tooth friend to split one with me. I knew he wasn't going to say no. It required very little to no convincing. Sadly, they were out of half of their options, but we tried the PANDAN CUSTARD DOUGHNUT (4.65) because we both like pandan. The custard was creamy with a strong pandan flavor. The donut was soft and chewy with a delicious sugar layer. I'm sure these have been sitting out for a few hours, so I'm impressed how well they hold up. I would definitely pay the price for these delicious doughnuts again.

I hope they'll pop up at DC farmer's markets again some day! I was able to try their new hojicha cinnamon roll and the classic miso pumpkin donut this past weekend at a pop-up they attended, and it was delicious as always (but not as fresh as it used to be at the markets, of course). My friend also loved her black sesame kouign amann, and I've enjoyed their croissants I nthe past. It's just a really solid home bakery, and I was excited to hear they might be opening a storefront in Annandale soon. Definitely check them out if you see them!

Very interesting concept as this place seems to be more of a dessert shop, I am curious on how good the viet food is.. maybe one day! I ordered the valentine bingsu which consist of a bunch of fruit and vanilla ice cream. The bingsu was advertised with "milky ice flavor" which I did not taste the "milky" part. The shredded ice was a great consistency, though! Easy to scoop up, melts fast, & not ice-y which to me is crucial to a decent bingsu. The strawberries paired were great and very sweet, the peach felt like it was from a can, pineapple gave off canned vibes, except it was extremely bitter and basically gone bad. Mangoes were OK not very sweet and Vanilla ice cream was good but you can't go wrong with that if it's store-bought. Overall would give this a 5/10 maybe 4.5/10. You order on the kiosk or at the counter. I opted for the kiosk as the employees were busy, I did however asked at the counter to Change my order after once I realized they had the valentine bingsu since I was feeling more fruit desserts (originally ordered the strawberry & cream). They were accommodating which I appreciated! Service was nice for the most part - the guy that served me my order did not acknowledge me when I said thank you... or when we took him the dish after the food and said thanks again lol service can be spotty based on who you get I guess? Again Curious on the viet food here!

Review is specifically for the Salt Bread and cookies…read more I just came back from Asia and had my first Salt Bread over there and oh my god I am hooked. I've been searching all over the DMV and the Salt Bread here has been very, very lackluster. Bit Bakery is the first place where the Salt Bread is actually buttery (to the point my fingers started to glimmer). My favorite variation has to be the Squid ink! Also while I came for the Salt Bread, I certainly stayed for the cookies. The cookies were even better than the Salt Bread!! So soft yet also held together well. I tried the Banana Milk flavor and really enjoyed it. Currently just a pop up, but they're off to a good start. Excited to see Bit Bakery's story unfold! :)

The basic salt bread and ink bread are available when they open (as well as the cookies) but some additional breads become available after 3pm. I walked around the pop-up district and waited until 3p to try the Ube Salt Bread. I had never tried the original Salt Bread before but the Ube Salt Bread lived up to the hype. It was flaky, crusty, salty, and sweet. The Ube Cream had the right amount of sweetness and they were definitely generous with the amount of cream. I would come back and try the cookies and other salt breads next time. They have everything on display so you can look at the different cookies and salt breads. The inside is mostly a silver and grey going for a retro/modern experience. Music is pretty loud but there is ample seating inside.

I…read moreliterally travel over state lines to find TM at local farmers markets or stop by the bakery whenever I can -- that's how good everything is. TM specializes in Asian baked goods with really fun and creative twists. Every item feels thoughtful, unique, and beautifully made. You can tell there's a lot of care and creativity behind the menu. My personal favorites are the black sesame croissant and the mango sticky rice croissant. Both are incredible -- flaky, perfectly balanced, and unlike anything you'll find at a typical bakery. The flavors are bold but still comforting, and the pastries are always fresh. I've also really enjoyed getting to know the owner, Annie. She clearly puts her heart and soul into every product she makes, and that passion really comes through in the quality and creativity of the pastries. If you love creative pastries and Asian-inspired flavors, Toi Moi Bakery is a must. Totally worth the trip every time.

Among the baked goods I sampled were some intriguing flavors with quality, but some items were a bit dry, leading to croissants that were just a bit too flaky to be practical. Preordering for either this retail location or for various farmers markets is an option, and that may yield a more interesting selection. Still, I think it's reasonable to want to just buy some high-quality Asian baked goods, and when I compare this to the experience at the top places in the area, I don't know why I needed to come here.

The Yelp event gave me an opportunity to try their popsicles, so this time around I tried their gelato. I tried the Chocolate Hazelnut Crunch and the Cookie Monster flavors. They were delicious! The chocolate hazelnut crunch could be too sweet for some people, but it was pretty good to me. The Cookie Monster flavor was just a perfect combo. They gave a pretty hearty portion size, too, which is awesome! The staff were really friendly and patient while I asked for samples and recommendations.

They were polite and patiently waited for me to figure out what I wanted. The shop itself is very cute and organized. They carry a lot of cute plushies that include boba drink plushies and panda plushies. I ordered the mango green tea without any toppings and customized with 50% sweetness and less ice. With changing the sweetness level of boba, it's always a gamble on how it's going to affect the overall drink (most of the time, regular sweetness level is too much for me). The drink was okay, I wish there was more mango flavor in it though. I think maybe 75% sweetness would fix it, but I'm really not sure. Overall, I think it's an okay boba tea shop. If I'm at Dulles Town Center again, maybe I'll stop by and try a milk tea instead.

I just ordered a bubble waffle since that was what I was craving, but usually people will get the waffle with ice cream (there's plenty of flavor options with toppings).
