I highly recommend the light and flavorful signature Roll Cake and their unique beverages, particularly the cream topped Einspanner and the vibrant Purple Sweet Potato Latte. With a focus on high quality ingredients and an inviting atmosphere, L'AMI offers a delightful escape for enjoying freshly baked goods and handcrafted drinks.“

“I had a really great experience at Borek-G! The kebab was delicious and everything tasted fresh. Everyone was very welcoming, especially Erol amca, who was so kind and friendly. They even offered me tea, which was such a nice touch. The whole place has a warm and friendly atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Clifton Cafe is our new favorite evening spot on the weekends. We’ve been customers since the original owners opened it years ago, but until this past fall we did more to go orders than dine in since the service and time to prep food was often slow and unpredictable. Now we go almost every week. We’ve noticed big improvements since they expanded their kitchen and redesigned the bar area. Their new pull up bar is beautiful and spacious. The new owners and management are great too! We love the evening staff as well, especially Ian and Nicole. They are very personable, accommodating, and attentive. They have great happy hour specials from 3-6 and make the best margaritas and espresso martinis. Some of our favorite dinner items include the crab dip, Mediterranean salad, cuban sandwich, burgers, crab cakes, quiche specials, banana pudding, and too many crepes to name! We also appreciate that they have become more family friendly. We had a last minute party of 14 on a Friday evening (half of which were children ages 1-11) and they didn’t hesitate to pull some tables together in a private nook to accommodate our large group (again thanks to Ian and Nicole). We noticed they finally got a changing table in the large bathroom, which they are about to install. Our kids are past that stage, but there were several times when they were little that a changing table would have been helpful.“

“Not sure how to graciously ask this question, but I am usually taken back when I see foodies without prices on their menu. It makes me think those preparing the menu may be arrogant to believe that price means nothing to patrons. Price matters. Are foods and drinks priced too high to be transparent? Are all patrons so well off that price to them really does not matter? I will sometimes pass over a place if they hide their prices, just because there are so many others that do not hide them. The atmosphere just by itself deserves a reluctant visit.“

“​Amazing experience! Great atmosphere, clean and well maintained.
Fresh, top-tier smoked salmon toast and top-notch service.
Dela was super friendly, humble, and really knew his stuff. Couldn’t have asked for a better recommendation. Will 100% be coming back!“

“came to this place like 4 times now and it never misses!! 1st off the music and ambience is ALWAYS on point. 2nd, staff is great and the place itself is so clean. nothing else to say but it’s noticeable that this spot is well maintained. 3rd, the food!!! just wow. you can tell all the ingredients they use are fresh! i could have the avo egg + cheese sandwich and shrimp burger all day… 4th off — the drinks 🙂‍↕ bruh…. misugaru latte w oatmilk …. iced or hot…. that will change your life. still need to try some of the other stuff but this is a pure 5/5. thanks to my boyfriend who works in this building, we wouldnt have discovered such a gem!!!!“

“Friendly comfortable environment with great coffee and sandwiches. I don't eat a lot of ice cream, but patrons I've watched really like it.“

“My husband and I found this little spot while out walking . We purchased coffee, bagels and decided to have a scone apiece. The owner and staff are so sweet and you can tell that they love what they do. It will be a regular spot for us to visit.“

“I highly recommend this place!
Customer service was amazing, any questions I had about a product they recommended anything to me and have been working amazing.
The food was great, the flavor was really good mainly the carne asada burrito.
Will come back again and bring my family.“

“Great value! Delicious food..sandwiches as well as their hot bar! The best place in Tyson's for lunch“

“The moment you walk in, the environment is so welcoming, fresh, and vibey. It's like you know " this is going to be good". Then you are greeted, and the service was just that much better. She was awesome, super friendly and likeable. Didn't have to wait too long for food, clearly it was made fresh to order because when i got it (chicken ceaser wrap with fries) it was AMAZING. the fries were so perfectly crisp and warm, the wrap was balanced, warm, but not too warm because of the lettuce. Cannot rave enough about my experience, and the food. I'm looking forward to when i can make it back for another meal!“

“"I've been coming to this hidden gem for years, and it never disappoints. The owner, Choi, is wonderful—friendly, personable, and incredibly attentive. If you're someone who orders the same thing every visit, she'll likely remember your order by heart. I like to try something different each time, and I've honestly never had a bad meal. The food is consistently excellent, and I've become so hooked that I order lunch from here at least twice a week. Their breakfast is just as amazing and always a great way to start the day. I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area looking for a delicious breakfast or lunch. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere keep me coming back year after year."“

“Giving five stars because it’s a peaceful cafe with good coffee (I got their cold brew) and even some good food options, which I haven’t tried yet but will next time I am here (i tried the beef egg cheese sandwich and it was delicious). This area of McLean badly needed another coffee cafe type of place (because there aren’t many at all, I think there was just starnut), and we got one!“

“Senberry is such a standout spot if you’re craving something healthy that still feels like a treat. The açaí bowls are delicious and surprisingly filling, and the smoothies taste incredibly fresh. I also loved the chicken avocado flatbread—so flavorful and satisfying. What really made the visit special was the warm, welcoming service; the owner was genuinely friendly and created such a cozy, inviting atmosphere. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to come back to again and again.“

“Had an absolutely wonderful cortado (strong taste and velvety finish) and tasty tomato burrata toast (nearly ordered three more). Folks were very nice and clearly enjoyed the place, and it showed in the coffee and service. Pleasantly busy but neither packed nor loud. Look forward to being back. Compliments all around.“

“The owner was really nice i liked the banana pie matcha, i really dont like matcha, but this banana pie matcha changed my mind and you should get it. The brown sugar boba was great aswell. The workers made it really good, it tasted just perfect. The games there was cool and fun to do.“

“ordered the iced tiramisu latte (less sweet) and it was good! i'd probably add an extra shot next time as the espresso flavor was a bit mild to me. cute drink presentation and interior design!

“I hosted my weekly "Coffee Klutch" meet here this morning on behalf of my campaign for State Senate and the ladies of Old Town had a fabulous time! The decor is so pretty and the sweets are delicious! Thank you so much for hosting us! Please visit my website to see where we will be each week! www.sophia4va.com“

“I had a great experience at The Cozy Cafe. First, the gentleman who took my order was incredibly kind and welcoming. For my meal, I ordered the beef bulgogi, and it was some of the best I have had in a long time. The atmosphere lives up to the name perfectly—it is so cozy. I started by sitting at a table near the window to enjoy my food. Afterward, I moved over to a really comfortable sofa to get a bit of work done before an appointment. The entire room is filled with beautiful flowers and has a very chill vibe. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely go back.“

“Literally EVERYTHING on their menu is DELICIOUS! I Love the teriyaki chicken, the beef bulgogi, and their chicken pesto panini 🤤 They are also very very generous with the amount of food you get. For example their chicken panini has a HUGE piece of Chicken breast in it and the mozzarella cheese are HUGE and thick fresh slices. The word "skimpy" is unknown here 🤤 They have an AMAZING drink selection as well. Really love how many different types of Green Tea they have. If you have a chance to stop by or you're close by, I highly recommend you give it a try. They have outdoor seating with umbrellas.“

“Genuinely one of my favorite coffee shops. The people are very nice and you can learn a lot about coffee there.“

“Delicious food, Everything Good.“

“I wish there were more stars to give - the food and decor/vibe are great but the service is even better. Outstandingly patient and considerate...genuinely invested in treating people well, not just getting the money out of our pockets. They are doing this the right way - I'm a loyal customer now.“

“The customer service is superb every time I have visited. My favorite is their mango cake and the shortbread cookie. Great ambience!“

“Best mocha ever.. we love going to the Swiss bakery for treats ❤️❤️“

“I've been here many times now and have yet to have a bad meal. Highlights include their pastel de queso, the sonso de yucca, the empanada arroz and the sopa de mani but there's so much more including delicious Saltenas and if you're really hungry their Majadito. The staff is super friendly and attentive and they are easy to find with good parking. This will definitely be one of my first stops anytime I am in this area.“

“Very cute place, delicious teas and desserts, nice staff.“

“10/10 every timeee! Secret Garden Cafe always has good stuff and never disappoints. Everything I’ve tried always hits, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere is super cute and cozy. Definitely one of those spots I’ll keep coming back to! 🤍“

“Dining here is always a smooth, satisfying experience. Great quality - both in service and flavors.“

“Food is always great. Last visit Jenna waited on us. Such an attentive, personable professional. She made the meal a pleasure.“

“Celebrating my wife’s birthday!“

“The atmosphere is beautiful, you can also watch the matches and enjoy watching, and in the evening, what an atmosphere and places to sit outside, you can enjoy the shisha, and there is also a food cart, you can enjoy here, and the service here is beautiful, they help you with anything, and I would like to thank Rabie, he helps us a lot, thank you Rabie“

“First time visit and it was great! The food was fantastic (best French fries ever) and the staff was very nice and friendly. I will be back!“

“My daughter and I had an absolutely wonderful time at this creperie. She claimed her strawberry nutella crepe was the most delicious crepe she'd ever had, and my Galette Complete (emmental, ham, egg) was perfect — soft but crisp buckwheat exterior with an impeccable barely-set sunny side up egg. Our server Belle was fantastic. Sunny, fast, and also exceptionally patient because I — a grown adult who actually loves math —made a dumb calculation mistake with the bill which she had to correct me on (*face palm*). Cannot recommend this gem of a place enough.“

“This was my first time going to this place. I was searching for a nearby place that had sourdough bread sandwiches and this one came up so I decided to try it. It did not disappoint. Very refreshing to not have to drive to Lorton 15 minutes away! thank you!“

“It takes a bit for me to review, but after a number of pleasant visits, here I am.

The lattes are excellent and creative—the Butter Beer is my favorite. I love their philosophy on flavoring: they start light because you can always add more, but you can’t take it away—i.e., salt when cooking.

The staff is incredibly accommodating, too, and cheerfully made one of their previous drinks that wasn't on the menu.

The prices are nicely reasonable, making it easy to get a great drink within your budget, and my husband loves their suitably priced pour-over options.

The atmosphere is light, clean, and beautifully minimal. As a parent with school-aged kids and a toddler, this calm space provides a true, low-stress retreat—emphasis on the treat.

While they have just three locations and offer franchising, they completely avoid that overwhelming corporate-chain color scheme that hides their logo everywhere and advertises their wares and new things on your path to order. Something I never realized was subconsciously exhausting until it was scaled to a minimum.

It's a welcoming, child-friendly, local spot. So very glad it's not another copy and paste coffee place.“

“My waitress Ms. Zafirah was great! She was friendly, courteous and helpful. My good however was a problem. I’m 37 weeks prego. I ordered the trifecta with a pancake. Had to send it back 3 times in order to get hot food. Was not happy about the kitchen service but my waitress was nice.“

“I was warmly greeted by two employers at the register, a nice young man with bleached hair and his female co-worker with glasses were very attentive and answered my questions about the menu with enthusiasm. It was busy when I visited but they were still patient and gave me excellent service despite the line behind me. The food was very fresh and tasted incredible. I will be sure to continue to visit frequently!“

“So delish! One of Dupont’s many hidden gems.“

“Lots of desserts 🍮 🧁 🍨 and snacks“

“If i could i would give this place zero stars..but not an option. I was a new visitor to this establishment, and let him know that prior to ordering. Wanted the turkey (happy place) a drink and a scone. I get my meal and there is no turkey on it. So I got back and explained I wanted the turkey happy place. He said no you ordered the "our happy place". I said sir I even pointed to what I wanted on the menu. I didn't realize there were two items with the same name. He said that is your fault and you should know the menu. I said we'll I had let you know prior it was my first time here. He said I don't care if it's your first or 3rd you should know the menu. He said I'm not going to remake it., that's what you ordered. I said I would of never order anything with spinach because I'm allergic to it. He said so..I'm not remaking it! So not only did I have to wait a long time for thr sandwich, I couldn't eat it cause I was allergic to the ingredients. So I get back to my office hungry and upset to realize he didn't put the scone I paid for in thr bag. So I call and he says oh next time I will give it to you. No apology or anything. ..and next time, I paid for it this time. Very rude to new customers and would never spend my money there again. I don't understand why he was so rude. You think you would want to retain customers so they will do repeat visits.“

“I recently visited Panera and had such a pleasant experience overall. The atmosphere was clean, and the customer service truly stood out!
It was actually Easter, and I had a long, emotional day—I had taken my mother to the hospital and, being 8 months pregnant, I hadn’t eaten yet. I was exhausted and overwhelmed. But an employee named Anthony completely turned my day around.
His attitude was amazing—so polite, patient, and genuinely kind. He treated me with such care and respect, and in that moment, it meant everything. This is exactly the kind of customer service we need more of today.
I’m so grateful for that experience—it’s honestly going to be a core memory for me of how customer service should be. God bless him!“

“Fun food, good portions, friendly environment“

“Very helpful and friendly staff. Managers present helping speed up the serving process and they are very helpful should you need anything. ALI provides awesome customer service and makes sure you have a pleasant visit. Ali went above and beyond today to make sure I found the food items I was looking for and that I was satisfied. Cannot recommend dealing with him enough.

Really nice improvements here at this location the past few weeks to bump my review up to 5 stars for this Panera.
For reference we stop by 1-2 times a week at this location. Typically between 3-4.
We frequently order the Roasted Turkey & Avocado.
The new Deli Ham sandwich is really nice too as they return ham sandwiches to the menu!“

“I'm at a loss for words! I only discovered this place thanks to my fiancé. He raves about it every day but never brings anything home. So, I decided to tag along with him on his way to work.

All I can say is OMG! The portion sizes are just right, and I'm gradually making my way through the entire menu. Everything I've tried has been delicious, and the best part is that it's incredibly affordable! Customer Service is 10/10 everyone is nice and friendly!“
