“The restaurant was a little busy and tables in the back where we sat were a little small. We ended up moving to the bar and after that everything was great. The crazy spider that I ordered was mild but very enjoyable.And of course the presentation is “
“While on a work trip to Virginia last week, I naturally had to satisfy my adventurous taste buds with some new eats. I tried Asia Bistro, located in Pentagon City. It is in this cute outdoor mall! I ordered the Strawberry Blush Boba with Coconut Milk, Steamed Chicken Dumplings, and Avocado Roll. The boba was amazing. The combination of fresh strawberry puree and creamy coconut milk was pure heaven. Seriously, the BEST boba I've ever had! The Chicken Dumplings were light, flavorful, and the perfect way to kick off my meal. The avocado roll did not disappoint! It was fresh, perfectly balanced, and just as satisfying as any avocado roll I've had elsewhere. Asia Bistro's adorable and intimate setting paired with the friendly wait staff created a delightful dining experience. The food was fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced.“
“Good food: fine quality meat (not the greatest, but good nevertheless). Excellent lady (Yao Yao) assisting at the table. Two less good points: (1) we were informed only when we arrived that we would have the table for 1 hour 45 minutes. May seem enough, but food did not start to arrive until 20 minutes had elapsed. At the end, we had to rush to finish our s'mores so we could vacate in time. (2) We had notified the restaurant that it was my son's 18th birthday, but they did not sing for him, bring out a piece of cake for him, or acknowledge in any way. Disappointing.“
“I'm only going to review this place for the Bubble Tea section so this is strictly for Bee's & Tea. I don't think there's a listing for it but it's inside and you order at the bar. Very interesting concept but it works. Overall, since it's inside Asia Bistro, you'll see tables for diners and lots of cool modern asian decor. Even walking in has a small fountain that is the first thing you'll see. The bar itself has the entire menu of what you could order Boba wise but you could also order alcohol too. There's many options to pick honestly. I got the Strawberry Blush drink. It's black tea that's lightly sweetened with strawberry puree with strawberry heart jelly. It's really cute! I think I should have opted to order Boba instead because the jelly takes an effort to drink through the straw. I don't really have much to say but it's boba, lots of different teas to pick from ranging from Milk/Fruit/Thai Tea/Coffee, ect with many toppings.. Can't go wrong with a nice drink after food.“
“I tried the tofu pad see ew and it was amazing! Great flavor! The waitstaff was very kind and attentive!Dietary restrictions: They had very clear outlines of vegetarian options, and I was able to ask for them to not include eggs to make the dish vegan friendly. They also offer vegetable and tofu as options for their dishes.“
“Thai Treasure is a culinary gem that shines brightly in the constellation of local eateries. This isn't just another Thai restaurant; it's a vibrant homage to the rich tapestry of Thai cuisine, served up in a modern setting that's as inviting as a warm smile. With service that makes you feel like royalty, it's no wonder this place has become a treasure trove for those in search of flavors that transport you straight to the heart of Thailand.Our culinary expedition began with the Crab Rangoon, a playful yet sophisticated take on the classic appetizer. The delicately crispy pouches served with a side of sweet & sour sauce were a surprisingly great way to start the meal, much better than what we typically think of. It's a dish that says, "Welcome to flavor town, population: you."Then came the Lava Beef, a dish so sizzling, it could melt even the coldest of hearts. The combination of beef, onion, bell peppers, and pineapple, all lovingly tossed in a honey pepper sauce and kissed by sesame oil, was a sweet and savory ballet that pirouetted right onto our taste buds. It wasn't just hot; it was volcanic, in the best possible way.The journey continued with Pad Kee Mao, also known as Drunken Noodles. This dish, with its wide rice noodles, onion, bell peppers, tomato, and basil, was like a late-night adventure in Bangkok--bold, spicy, and utterly unforgettable. It's the kind of dish that makes you want to dance in the rain, or at least order another round.Speaking of rounds, the Panang Chicken Curry was a knockout. The spicy, rich curry, infused with the zest of kaffir lime and studded with bell peppers and broccoli, was a masterclass in balance and flavor. It was like a hug from an old friend who just happens to be a Thai spice merchant--warm, comforting, and slightly spicy.And let's not forget the cocktails and classic beverages, a liquid odyssey that's as daring as it is delicious. Thai Treasure's beverage menu is a treasure map that leads to bliss, with each drink more inventive and refreshing than the last. It's the perfect complement to a meal that's already overflowing with flavor and fun.In essence, Thai Treasure is more than just a restaurant; it's a celebration of Thai culture, cuisine, and conviviality. With its modern vibe, exceptional service, and a menu that's both adventurous and authentic, it's a place where every meal feels like a fantastic discovery.“
“During our visit to Washington D.C. for the Cherry Blossom Festival, my friend and I were craving the comforting taste of authentic Uyghur cuisine. After some online research, we stumbled upon a restaurant with impressive reviews.As we stepped into the restaurant, my friend was instantly hit with the nostalgic scent of home. It was a heartwarming moment for her, and I could feel her homesickness easing. We ordered Saozi noodles, Stir-Fried Rice Noodles, and lamb kababs. Each dish was a delicious fusion of flavors that whisked us away from the chaotic streets of downtown D.C. to the familiarity of home.Back from our trip, I attempted to recreate the Saozi noodles at home, but let's be honest, it didn't come close to the restaurant's version. Both my friend and I found ourselves yearning for another taste of their delectable offerings, vowing to return on our next visit to the D.C. area.I also recommended the restaurant to a friend, and they too had an exceptional experience.For those new to Uyghur cuisine and lovers of spicy flavors, I recommend trying the Stir-Fried Rice Noodles. They're a traditional local delight that's not to be missed.Our experience at this restaurant was truly memorable, and we eagerly anticipate our next visit. I sincerely hope everyone has as wonderful an experience as we did at this restaurant, and I extend my best wishes to the restaurant for continued success!“
“What white people think Japanese food is like… which isn’t necessarily bad.With the atmosphere of loud rock music it’s tough to savor the taste of the sushi (and the expensive prices!). The quality is seemingly not bad, but unfortunately the menu pairs the fresh fish with non-traditional flavors, it detracts from the quality, which was good for the salmon at the very least. The eel was unusually chewy, almost overcooked.The service is nice. If you just want to go out drinking, and don’t care about the food, this might be your place.Oh and also, they included tax within the tip calculation, but when displaying the tip amounts only displayed the subtotal. A bit dishonest.“
“Went here for casual lunch with coworkers and had not been before (but a coworker had been here before) and was super happy with what we got. I got the garlic rice veggie bowl with peanut sauce. I liked the crispy tofu, garicky rice, and the vegetables were perfectly cooked. My only regret was not getting the crispy spring rolls. I really enjoyed the large portion size for price and if you cannot finish you can get lids that they have to go.Lunch is really busy and it’s chaotic but it was fast given the lunch rush and it’s super casual. I am looking forward to going back!Vegetarian options: Has veggie options“
“This place has the best variety of Japanese food and sushi in Clarendon. The combo deals are great and overall you get great quality and amount of food for a good price! It's a chill restaurant inside. It gets busy during lunch and dinner hours but otherwise it's quiet and relaxing and a great place for a sushi date.“
“I want to give a big “Thank You” to Josh Coffman (Manager). There was an issue with my order and he delivered it personally to my residence. It was not the restaurant’s fault, it was the delivery service I chose that made the error. So I am definitely a fan! My guests enjoyed the meal and I plan to visit the restaurant very soon. Thanks again!“
“Clean, family run resturant. Food is always consistent, big portions, very reasonably priced. I recommend the hunan combination any day of the week. Service is always super friendly. No thrill dining, how it should be for a good local spot.“
“Really great bao with a cool second restaurant concept in the back! Highly recommend the bulgogi and the mushroom bao. The food is delicious, but the atmosphere is a bit strange. Not a bad thing, but the Bun’d Up portion of the restaurant runs more like a takeout only vibe even though there are tables. I like the vibe, but be warned before expecting anything fancier than fast casual tables. I’ve never eaten at the second concept restaurant in the back, but it looks like slightly nicer table service compared to the Bun’d Up portion in the front.“
“We had a very pleasant experience today, the services was the best I’ve experienced. I had made a mistake in my order and they were kind enough to fix it for me. Everyone was very nice always smiling, checking in on us, refilling the water. The food was delicious and the best of the best. I really felt very well taken care of and I will definitely be back.“
“Zen is my "go to" place in Arlington. Cozy, intimate wine bar that's attached to Asia Bistro, a traditional Asian fusion restaurant. The staff and management are friendly, personable, and always a pleasure to chat with, which is why Zen has such a large cadre of reglars.“
