As for the drinks, the Iced coffee was not good and the Korean Ice Milk Coffee was also not good. Both drinks were extremely watered down and didn't taste right like other locations. The breads were decent. Nothing much to say as this is standard. I ordered a slice of cake and it was beyond sweet and dry. I'm not sure if I received day old cake but it was a waste of money. Would not recommend coming here unless you really need a quick bite.

I visited the Tysons location around 9:10 AM Sunday 08/29/26 and was very disappointed with the…read morelevel of customer service. When I walked in, I greeted the barista and said good morning, but I received no acknowledgment at all. I assumed he was busy, so I waited. At the time, there was no line, but I stood there for several minutes while the employees were talking and cleaning the coffee machine instead of taking my order. Eventually, a line started forming behind me before anyone finally asked what I wanted. I ordered a sausage, egg and cheese croissant and an Americano. When I took out cash to pay, I was abruptly told that cash was not accepted and the payment device was pushed toward me without any real courtesy or explanation. I then waited several more minutes for my sandwich. I could see that it had finished warming, but it sat there while other things were being handled. By the time it was handed to me, it was cold. I also noticed another customer having to leave and come back because she was still waiting for her coffee. I have visited other Paul locations and have never experienced service like this. The entire interaction felt dismissive, disorganized, and extremely unprofessional. The biggest issue was not simply the wait--it was the lack of acknowledgment, urgency, and basic customer service throughout the visit.

This cafe is located in Vienna, and there's plenty of free slanted parking in front as well as parking in the complex next to and across if you're willing to walk. I've been to this location when it first opened years ago and they've really upped their menu and decorations inside since. The ambiance inside is beautiful, ideal for anyone looking for a good Instagram picture. There's so many angles and details so that no matter where you're sitting, there's a good vibe. There's also gorgeous seating outside since it can get crowded. For food, you order from the front and they'll call you when the food is ready. We ordered the dubai gelato and pistachio lokmas. Both were presented tastefully to make sure our eyes and cameras wanted to eat before our stomachs. The dubai gelato was a quality dessert with a good ratio of milk: cream. The pistachio flavor was evident on top, but it was just a kinda tart vanilla ice cream with toppings. I did like it, however, and it paired well with the lokmas. The lokmas were fried to perfection, a nice amount of chewy, and covered with a good ratio of pistachio cream. They were a decent size and conducive to sharing. The prices of everything, overall, was pretty expensive, but the quality definitely made up for it. I'd recommend this cafe to someone looking for a unique sweet treat, catching up with a group of girl friends of 2-4 people, or for a first date!

You can get everything from teas and coffee to specialty drinks, and the dessert menu has tons of variety -- pastries, crepes, bingsoo, and even a few savory items. There's honestly something for everyone here. The décor is one of my favorite parts of the experience. It's extremely quirky and eclectic, almost like wandering through an old-timey, whimsical field of curiosities. Every corner has something unexpected, and that's part of the charm. There's plenty of seating, but it does get busy, especially during peak hours. There's an attached parking lot, which makes stopping by super convenient. Prices lean a little on the higher side, but that's pretty normal for specialty dessert cafés. Overall, it's a delightful spot if you're craving creative desserts, unique drinks, or just a cozy and quirky place to hang out. I'd definitely come back!

Jeni's Ice Cream was our latest ice cream spot to try in the area.  There…read moreare many to choose from so we were a little picky.  Everything was fine, but nothing really made it stand out from the many others in the neighborhood. The service was fine.  We were surprised that when some of the ice cream dropped from the sample spoon on to the floor by accident, and we asked for a napkin to clean it up, they told us not to worry about it.  I went and found a napkin anyway.  It was a little gross to have a blop of ice cream (even a small one) right in front of the counter where people would step on it.  They also didn't offer another sample knowing that that one never made it to anyone's mouth for a tasting....  Anyway, we opted to try two waffle cones with  a total of four scoops - malted milk chocolate and banana cookie dough, goey butter cake salted peanut butter and brown butter almond brittle.  Maybe it's a matter of too many different things in each type but we didn't really rave over any of them.  The location is clean with plenty of seating and a nice view of the flowered walk way out front.  However, being that it fell short of several other ice cream spots we have tried lately and that you have to pay for parking, I don't think we will be back.

It's inside Tysons Corner Center on the second floor, so parking is just the usual mall parking. Easiest if you park 2nd floor food court parking then go up to 3rd floor garage and walk over the sky bridge. They always have fresh baked goods so it always smells so yummy when you walk in. There's seating if you want to hang out for a bit instead of just grabbing something and leaving. The staff is super helpful and welcoming, whether you're popping in for a quick snack or ordering a cake. I've ordered cakes from them for birthdays, graduations, and other celebrations, and they've always turned out great. I really like that their cakes are not too sweet (better for the Asian palette). Prices are fair too, which makes it even better. Their brown sugar boba latte is also sleeper good. Definitely recommend them whether you're at the mall or needing a cake.

I had actually been to a couple of Venchi locations in airports for chocolate, but hadn't realize they served gelato and had never had theirs. It was a very strange experience, though. We walk up to the ice cream counter to look at the flavors and they say we have to stand behind the register. We inquire as to whether we can taste flavors and they say yes, but only after you've purchased your ice cream. The issue with that is how do I know if I want one or two flavors until after I've tasted the gelato? I assume kids were coming in and tasting a bunch without buying anything, but then ask for a deposit or something. It doesn't make any sense to not be able to look at or taste the flavors before you have to order. I only tasted two flavors because they were making me so uncomfortable, and selected the second one I tasted--a dark chocolate flavor that wasn't honestly pretty darn excellent. So 5 stars for the actual taste (and their chocolates) and minus a star for the service.
