    I'm not a cream cheese expert.. But this is either old cream cheese or not Philadelphia

    High priced, low quality food..small portions. The cream cheese was beige :( very disappointed

    Steak Egg and Cheese Breakfast Sandwich !

    Good food, clean place and a lot choices on the menu! Breakfast is the top pick for me!

    I try to stop at most of the private owned delis in Northern VA during my workweek! This one checks all the boxes! The steak and cheese combo is phenomenal! They don't use the cheap cut of meat and it is very flavorful! They cook your order pretty quickly! The interior is well lit and clean. Can seat roughly 30 people. Parking is a little tight. I came in today at Noonish and there was about ten folks in here. I was done and ready to leave in about twenty minutes! Definitely need to try this cafe out if your in the area! They have American and Asian food! I will try the Asian food next stop since these steak and cheese are the bomb!

    Such a wonderful cafe with an extensive menu to choose from. They range from baked goods,…read moresandwiches, bagels, matcha, refreshers, and coffee. You truly cannot go wrong with any of their options. Be warned it does get packed on weekends and I understand why. There are lots of seating with plenty of outlets to study at. The noise level is pretty decent so just be aware for those looking for a cafe to study at to bring some headphones along. This is one of my favorites in the nova area !!

Ordering is done at the counter, and the process was quick and easy. The staff taking orders were friendly and helpful, and our food was brought out very fast despite the lunch crowd. My husband and I both had the ham and cheese sandwiches. They were good, although nothing especially memorable. The desserts, on the other hand, were delicious. We also picked up a couple of muffins along with an iced tea and coffee. One thing that really stood out was the huge selection of desserts, danishes, cookies, teas, coffees, and other drinks. There was plenty of indoor seating plus a few outdoor tables, so it never felt cramped. The only disappointment was that there were no free refills on the iced tea, which is what kept this from being a five-star visit for me. On the plus side, we signed up for the loyalty program and were pleasantly surprised to earn a free pastry from just this visit. Since we don't live in the area and probably won't be back anytime soon, that was a nice unexpected bonus. Overall, it's a solid spot with friendly service, great desserts, and plenty of seating.

First, we had the best service and they accommodated our speed and style of dining. Tried multiple dishes and desserts. Spicy eggplant stir fried with veggies was delicious and medium spicy was not very spicy. Tom Yum fried rice with shrimp was very seasoned with the right amount of spicy. Pad Thai with beef had the best noodles, perfectly chewy. Slightly on the sweet side, but very addictive. Good portions Papaya salad was very fresh and tasty. Inside was crowded for lunch, but the patio was empty. Patio was lovely today, beautiful weather. Mango with sticky rice and coconut custard was one of the best desserts we had in a long time. Definitely getting this again. The Thai Coffee with crème brûlée was smooth and creamy, very satisfying. Avocado and honey smoothie was creamy and good, maybe more avocado flavor could have improved the taste. Will definitely come back with more friends.

My friend and I both had two of those cold, refreshing smoothies during our first visit! Definitely try their other drinks too--the matcha crème brûlée is incredible. The desserts are also amazing, and now our goal is to try something new every visit. All the food is flavorful and satisfying, and it's such a cute spot to unwind for dinner. The service is awesome, and everyone on their team is nice! Only wish it was closer--check them out!

Bad: - service is very slow. I went on a weekday during lunch so it's possible that they were not fully staffed, but the food did take quite some time to make and at one point, the front counter person left for a bit and we couldn't get to-go boxes or any help. We even looked and tried to call for someone in the kitchen but they didn't hear us. It's possible that they didn't have as many people during the day when it's slower, but I would hope evenings are better since this place is probably busier then. Also there's a step when you walk in so don't trip! :)

The Food: I went with the "Butter Chicken Foodles" for my food item and the "Zafran Iced Chai ". The Butter Chicken was very underwhelming. For something so small, it took a long time to come out. And, it lacked a whole bunch of that creamy and rich flavor. And the noodles just felt very bland. The Chai was also a big let down, it was very bland and I had no taste of the Zaffran flavor whatsoever. The whole meal was just not good in my opinion. Especially for the price. The Service: Service was okay. I went during lunch and it was kind of empty. But it did take a little longer than usual for my food and drinks to come out. The staff are friendly here though. The Atmosphere: Nice, clean and modern decor. Very simple with an open concept. Plenty of seating around to just hang and have food/drinks. Overall, a 2/5. Didn't really enjoy the food and drink items I had here. Kind of deterred me from wanting to try other items. They do look good, but this experience didn't really do it for me.

    My dear friends know that I'm absolutely addicted to chai lattes, so they suggested we stop here…read morefor breakfast together! I'm glad I was with them, since the location is tucked away up the stairs and would be easy to miss if you are passing by. However, inside was very airy and spacious with many cozy options for seating. I ordered my chai with oat milk and a cinnamon roll from the friendly cashier. She asked if I wanted to warm my roll, and I agreed with the suggestion. Once we had our order, we headed to the couch to enjoy our brunch. The chai was delicious and had a nice peppery kick. It even came with a little cookie! I also really enjoyed the cinnamon roll, which was especially packed with spiced goodness at the warm center. I loved that everyone from studying students to large families could enjoy the indoor and outdoor space. Even with a fairly steady flow of customers, we were able to relax in the sunny couch area without feeling rushed. I would definitely return here for another chai and some breakfast in the future!

It is in the general area - but according to Google maps - the Reston Metro Station is about 0.4 miles (10 minute walk) from Cosmos Cafe. Cosmos Cafe is behind a gate in an office building complex - but there is free parking just outside the gate (I've parked in the free parking outside the gate every time I've visited Cosmos Cafe - it's about less than a one minute walk to Cosmos Cafe from the parking just outside the gate). Cosmos Cafe stops serving breakfast at 11:00 am - and this is stated on their menu on the wall behind the register. I've had their Cold Brew, as well as their Breakfast Burrito (Scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, and cheese). Very filling and tasty! I've also had a side of crispy bacon. The Cold Brew was good as well! There is a limited number of tables to eat in at. Paid with Apple Pay. Service was good! #CosmosCafe
