Coco Bay Kitchen & Tea House - Waldorf

It was our first time trying them out. We ordered a few things from their menu: beef pho, pineapple fried rice, pork buns, brown sugar boba and peach iced tea. We liked the pho. It’s a good solution to one’s craving. The fried rice was flavorful too. The buns were okay. The teas were lovely and fresh, not heavy on the sugar. The place was clean and bright. The servers were polite and courteous.

There was a mistake in my pho. I ordered the combo pho but told them to skip the meatballs and add extra brisket. Instead, they only gave me brisket and skipped everything else (tripe, tendon, and steak).

The egg rolls and bao buns were amazing. I'll definitely be back but I'll make sure my order is correct before leaving.

EDIT: I'm adjusting my review because I was at this restaurant today for another pick-up order and realized they automatically charge a 20 percent tip, If you're not paying attention. Plus, when I called in my order, the young lady had no clue what was on the menu.

I'm crossing this place off my list.

One of my favorite places to eat! The location is clean and cute, with friendly staff and, naturally, awesome food! I'm a big fan of the pineapple fried rice with tofu. This is probably the first place I've gone that I felt made the tofu perfectly. And I always get the crème brûlée milky. Actually caramelizing the top really brings it over the top. I'm always recommending it to my friends and trying to bring them along.

Didn’t get rid of the roaches…

This is a nice hidden gem in Waldorf. The staff works hard, but a lot of them are young, so mistakes and issues do happen. Sometimes someone forgets to do inventory, staff doesn’t know how to process a refund when they mess up on an order, and not doing certain maintenance stuff when a senior manager isn’t present. Little things that have been issues during my countless visits. Still, I’m very much a loyal patron and all of my kids love coming with too. Love the food! If you’re in the area, definitely check them out.

Me and my mom decided to try this new spot and we have to say it is truly a hidden gem!! We accidentally came on a day they were closed for maintenance and Calvin (one of the owners) apologized directly and said he’d remember our faces the next day to give us free tea..which he did!! The customer service is out of this world filled with such generous and humble staff. The restaurant itself is absolutely gorgeous and gives such a calming ambiance. Not to mention they have a whole bunch of different Asian snacks/ingredients listed at such great prices. The food was absolutely amazing and very affordable. We love supporting local Asian businesses and you can tell the owner actually cares about his business and everyone who walks in. Calvin actually came up and had conversations with you at your table getting to know and show his appreciation for supporting his restaurant. Overall this was a 10/10 experience and we will definitely be back. I made a video vlogging my experience which you can check out @mimi._mk7 on TikTok and mimi’s.mk7 on Instagram! :)

I don’t even leave bad reviews but this one warranted it. I’ve been here several times and never had an issue until today and the way it was handled was appalling. I ordered a caramel dream with coffee jelly, that’s how the drink comes, no substitutions were added or anything. I received a cup covered in caramel, some overly sugared brown sludge in the bottom of the cup that wouldn’t mix it and made me gag trying to drink it and NO coffee jelly at all was in the drink. Absolutely not what I paid for and I’ve had this before so I know this is not how it comes… Brought the drink back in and was not offered for it to be remade, they tried to charge me to fix the issue and everyone looked at me like I had 22 heads when I was explaining the issue. $15 for 2 drinks and neither of them were made properly. I’ll be sure to let everyone know to just avoid this place, I’d heard bad things before but didn’t want to believe it. Guess I had to see to believe….

I’ve tried to like this place but the food is just bland. The ordered garlic noodles and 80% of the meal was onions, the shrimp literally tasted like air. The garlic wings were fried so hard it barely edible. The summer rolls aren’t made to order and aren’t worth the money . This place is very mid and lackluster.

This place was absolutely amazing. The service was fantastic. The food was absolutely delicious and flavorful. It will definitely be my families new spot to go to. It was so cute inside with all the ethnic variety of foods and very clean. Isabel was an amazing server we also met the owner Calvin he was very tentative of all our needs. I should mention the cost was was relatively high, however, for the quality of food and service it was well worth it. The pork pineapple skewers were my absolute favorite and the garlic noodles with chicken was amazing.

Coco Bay is a must try restaurant!! I have ordered from them a couple of times and the food never disappoints. Today I made a mistake when ordering my food and the owner, Calvin, came over to confirm my order. The other staff members are always so friendly! The wings are cooked to perfection. I tried the fried lobster balls with mambo sauce, they were so delicious! The fried rice is also really good. The portion sizes a great! This is one of my top food spots in Waldorf, make sure you check them out!!

The cutest, yummiest place to get lunch or dinner. The garlic noodles are very good and the right amount of spicy. They also have a huge drink menu of teas, coffees and boba.
