After attending a work conference, my parents and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at Cafe Ile in…read moreMcLean, VA. We ordered several dishes to share, including the Chawanmushi, Seafood Sunomono Salad, Miso Salmon, Sashimi Combo, Super Dragon Roll, and Rainbow Roll. Everything was beautifully prepared, but the Sashimi Combo and Super Dragon Roll were the highlights of our meal! Chawanmushi: This traditional Japanese steamed egg custard featured crab meat and enoki mushrooms. I especially loved its delicate, silky-smooth texture. Seafood Sunomono Salad: Unlike the typical Sunomono salads I've had elsewhere, Cafe Ile's version featured an assortment of seafood, including salmon, tuna, crab, and octopus. It was a nice twist on a classic Japanese dish! Miso Salmon: Miso-marinated salmon served over a bed of cauliflower purée. A lovely combination of flavors! Sashimi Combo: One of my absolute favorites of the evening! The chef's assortment featured an impressive selection of seafood, including monkfish liver, herring, various types and grades of tuna, salmon, scallops, and more. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and I especially appreciated the flavorful takikomi gohan served alongside the sashimi. Super Dragon Roll: Another standout! This roll featured shrimp tempura topped with marinated, cooked eel and alternating red, yellow, and green masago. The combination of ingredients made this one of my favorite rolls of the evening. Rainbow Roll: A classic California roll topped with tuna, salmon, and avocado. A great choice for anyone who enjoys a variety of fish in one roll! Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience at Cafe Ile! I appreciated the variety of traditional Japanese dishes, the freshness of the seafood, and the thoughtful presentation of each dish. The Sashimi Combo alone makes me want to return! We're already looking forward to our next visit, especially to experience their omakase! At the time of our visit, omakase was offered Monday through Thursday at 5:30 PM and required advance reservations. Highly recommend Cafe Ile for anyone looking for quality Japanese cuisine and fresh sashimi in McLean!

This is hands down the best sushi I have ever had!!…read more Lots of homemade items. They make their own soy sauce and ponzu sauce. Rumor has it that they make their own wasabi. What a pleasant surprise to have fresh sliced ginger rather than pink jarred ginger with all the preservatives. The Food was absolutely AMAZING! It was very fresh! The PRESENTATION was AMAZING! I wouldn't hesitate to eat here again. When we first arrived we were brought a bowl of seaweed salad and freshly steamed edamame to share at the table. We also enjoyed a small bowl of corn soup. My friend and I shared the Salmon Carpaccio appetizer. We both had a Tysons Combo. I had the yellowtail and my friend had the salmon. The yummy house-made soy saw was not as salty as a traditional processed soy sauce. We chose Cafe île, since it was near our hotel in Tysons before our trek home to the valley. We arrived at a very strange time. It was 3 pm on a Sunday over Labor Day weekend. The bathrooms were clean so I am assuming the kitchen is too. The restaurant itself had piles of crumbs around. It was quite dirty. Hopefully they were in the middle of sweeping and cleaning up the dining room. We can't wait to come back!!

The atmosphere is that of a typical Izakaya. The staff greets each person who enters the restaurant so you instantly feel welcome. I only wish that they didn't have limited hours, because I want to eat there all the time and there's nothing more frustrating than going to order one of your favorite foods.

Shout out to a food content creator local to NoVA for recommending the space as one of her favorites. I do think that the prices are a little higher. But I did enjoy the quality of each meal.

The food was good, with my least favorites being the lobster roll (super tiny but super expensive, I guess I don't need imperial caviar that badly in my life) and the lollipop roll (the fish was very fresh, but it came topped with some goopy sauce and there was no rice, both of which were not mentioned on the menu). The rest of the food was very good - I tried the roasted cauliflower (light, but filling and not so cooked down that you forget it's cauliflower), grilled salmon (cooked to perfection and paired great with a side of white rice), and soba salad (yum yum - great flavor with crunchy vegetables on top). I also had the lychee martini, which was excellent. Overall it was a tasteful meal (literally and figuratively) with excellent service in a refined dining space. Recommend!
