    Shaved ice w/ match matcha and ube ice cream, mochi, I think chestnut, red beans
    Sujin Y.

    Omg, they have THE BEST MATCHA!!!! Soooooo goooddd!! And the ube taste really quality too!! Tbh I asked for side of little milk more red beans and mochi so I can kind of eat it like bingsoo and it was sooooo good!!!! I think she was working alone and literally had so many ppl come in at once and she served everyone fast!! I feel like she's likes to make sure everything is correct bc the menu can look a lot similar but she's really good at knowing exactly what you want. Also you already know, this place has so much character from hand written notes of ppl to lucky cat and bamboos and all!! I love this place and highly recommend anyone who has a good taste of matcha (Not Starbucks ) might love this place ‍

    Sakura foam matcha latte
    LeAnn F.

    I really wanted to like them, but I walked out frustrated. The business hours on their door don't align with the Google hours. The staff had a bad attitude when I asked if we the ice cream on top of the float or maiko was dairy free because I didn't see it and were like idk. I felt rushed. I got the sakura foam matcha latte and there's like a powder after taste that sticks to your teeth. I feel like I need to drink water to clear that lingering taste. It's pretty expensive for a latte when there's other bakery's around. I'll try again to see if next time if I get another staff member and can change my experience.

    I've been here soooo many times. Nothing to say but I love it! I went on a Thursday at around 4:30pm. It was nice and quiet ambiance with some k-pop playing (which I am never opposed to). The service was lovely! We requested to try the Ube flavor and we got a cute little sample- it was nice :) We eventually settled on the VanillaxMatcha soft serve in cups. Everrrrrr so yummy!!!

    If you love matcha, you're gonna love this place! The whole menu is just matcha. Matcha ice cream, matcha lattes, matcha floats and soo much more. When I walked in this place smelled so good like waffles and there was a lot of cute seating available. I tried the banana pudding matcha latte and it came out with such a cute presentation. It tasted delicious! My husband had the mango matcha latte and he finished it in seconds so I think he liked it! The service was so fast, we ordered and then sat down and or drinks were ready.

    Matcha Cream Latte

    I met up with some friends and ended up ordering the Maiko Special with a mix of matcha and ube ice cream. The Maiko Special is a parfait containing ice cream, matcha chiffon, chestnuts, and mochi. It takes a bit of time to assemble, but it's a yummy dessert with lots of different textures. There's plenty of parking available since it's located in a shopping center. The interior is clean and cute with a decent amount of seating. They also have a rewards program. Staff is professional and friendly. With the price, it wouldn't be my regular dessert haunt. However, I wouldn't mind visiting again sometime.

    | UBE, HOJICHA, MATCHA SOFT SERVE PINTS |

    Matcha Cafe Maiko never misses! Since opening in 2018, this place remains one of my favorites. Their flavorful drinks and cold desserts make the most delightful pick-me-ups. Tried, tasty, and true, the Maiko Special, hojicha float, and soft serve are my go-tos! And if you are local, you can grab a pint -- or two, or three -- to enjoy at home. Aside from the refreshing treats, the store is tidy and well-kept inside with a casual atmosphere. Service is reliably quick and pleasant as well. Could not recommend this lovely matcha shop enough!

    Hojicha Latte Float
    Saki R.

    Tried their Hojicha Latte float with mixed (matcha and vanilla) soft serve ice cream. You get to choose the flavor of the ice cream, so I thought that was nice. The staff was able to answer all my questions. Overall it was good but maybe I'll try something else next time. It was a little bitter in my opinion and it had a lot of ice cubes. Ambiance was okay, didn't feel cozy enough for me to stay longer.

    The small matcha soft serve feeds two and makes for the perfect date spot! The matcha is so good, but can be bitter so with the mix of ube, it was perfect. There was more matcha than ube in the swirl but that's ok!

    My first matcha ice cream store that I tried here in US ever. This store is decorated with cute little wooden art by the customer. You can purchase a wood piece to draw on it and then hang it on the wall. My favorite here was always be the matcha and vanilla flavor swirl cone! Price is not too bad for the amount of ice cream on it. It has the perfect about of matcha, not too bitter and the ice cream is not too sweet. I usually come here during regular day as weekend could be pretty busy!

    Usually always drop by after eating chicken! I love their kokuto drink! This time I asked for a Hojicha kukoto tea with the special banana putting they had for seasonal! I enjoyed it a lot and will be back for more! It was also beautifully decorated! Plenty of seating, cute decorations, and a great place for a quick stop or judt a place to hang out with friends!

    Consistent quality desserts with great flavors available. What more do you need? Maiko special is my go to because it has so many elements. It can get quite busy but the line moves fast. There's a buzz when it's busy and I see why it's a hangout.

    Great matcha, great environment. Got the mango matcha and it was delicious. The mango was sweet and the matcha was super rich. There's many different type of flavors to choose from so I will definitely be coming back to try more. There's many different service was amazing as i was greeted with smiles and the order was ready within a minute. A lot of areas of seating which is great for times that it is busy. 10/10

    Matcha And Vanilla Soft Serve
    Steven T.

    This is one of the best matcha ice cream spots in the DMV. The soft serve is creamy and has the perfect consistency. The matcha flavor is also very pronounced but also not too bitter. I like to add mochi balls to mine for a nice chewy bite! This one time I went service was not amazing/a bit rude, but nonetheless, still one of my favorite dessert spots!

    I heard that they were going to start serving taro/ube ice cream here, is this true?

    Yes, we have ube soft serve right now!

    Hi! Can I get some nutrition information? Looking for a sugar free yet sweet latte with alt milk!

    They have almond milk (Costco) brand and you can order the matcha latte without sugar!

    Are you also the owner of tysons mall?

    No, we do not own that location.

    Do they have unsweetened matcha drinks?

    Yes!

    Do you have the donuts from the thirdculture?

    No we do not

    Are the full menu offerings available yet? Or is it still partial menu offerings?

    I believe the full menu is available now

    How about tomorrow Jan 14? If so regular hours?

    We are closed for the day

    Are there any non dairy options? If so, what?

    Yes, we currently have almond milk options for the matcha/hojicha lattes, and can also do custom non-diary matcha/hojicha drinks. Soon we will have soy milk options for the lattes as well. All of these aren’t on the menu but please feel free to just… Read more

    When is the full/grand opening supposed to be?

    Within the next week or two after we have time to roll out the rest of the menu items and feel like all the staffs are properly trained :)

    When will you serve HOJI soft serve ice cream, please please get that flavor soon....?

    It takes about 2-4weeks to get the complete menu. A business that has an early opening usually has a delay waiting time until they are a scheduled part of the franchise supply chain.

Nothing that made me say, "Mmmmmmm, this is really good!" Coffee drinks are expensive for smalls & also just kinda ordinary. It's a great place to meet up with friends & family, but it's also a small venue that can get really squishy during peak times (e.g., early morning, after dinner). Worth the drive? This is tough. It's a good place to meet up & the food & beverages aren't horrible, so to connect with people, yes, worth it. For the food? Not exactly. Seriously, everything looked absolutely wonderful. Makes one want to buy everything in sight. Textures are great. Light, fluffy bread on red bean bun. The filling nothing special. Same with the blueberry pastry... nothing super yummy & not much filling. Couldn't taste the blueberry. Kinda disappointing. So, while I'd not go out of my way for their baked goods & coffee, I'd definitely nosh on something while hanging out with friends as long as we could find seats. To me it's a destination for meeting up and not one to go out of your way for out of this world sweet treats. Gotta pick up a cake on short notice or pastries to take to an office potluck? It's a convenient location for this.
