She took my order and handed me a ticket to pick it up in the next few minutes. I decided to sit at the counter (very small space - 3 stools) to wait.

Very average tasting coffee that seriously lacks espresso in their lattes, because the one I…read morereceived had more milk than anything else...which is why I do not understand the hype at all here. I ordered a pistachio latte at this Tysons location and it was mostly milk and ice. When I asked who appeared to be the male manager there if they could remake it, since the one they gave me was mostly ice and milk, he gave me a dirty look. Not very friendly service here. They're very busy, which is why I don't recommend if you're in a rush or want a latte that isn't made rushed. It doesn't give off specialty craft latte, because the quality and time spent on making the latte isn't there. They use too much milk. Or maybe they're just really inconsistent. Either way, it would have been better if the manager had tried to make things right rather than act annoyed. I really don't understand the hype and all the rave reviews, given the poor quality of the latte I received and bad service, this made me not want to come back. Disappointing coffee.

I usually like my coffee on the sweeter side but I really didn't need to add anything extra, probably because the espresso is also so smooth and delicious.

Wish I got her name to shoot her out! WILL be coming back. This place was also very quiet when I came in and seems like a pretty good space to get work done and also they had lots of seating inside.

Unfortunately they didn't have any light roast available as drip. The only way to get it is as pour-over, which was an eye watering $7!!! What's worse, they only serve drinks in paper 'to go' cups - no mugs 'for here', because "covid". Given these two things, I won't be back. My wife said her sugary crème brûlée latte was very good. The place is nice, with plenty of comfortable seating. The servers were nice.

There's some parking available right outside, and despite living in McLean for several years, I hadn't realized there's actually a food hall in the building. That alone makes it a decent option for teleworking or a casual stop. As for the food--it reminded me quite a bit of Paris Baguette. Cakes seemed slightly more expensive, while pastries were more in line price-wise. I tried a jalapeño cheese croissant, a garlic butter bun, spinach egg bites, and a tiramisu iced coffee. The croissant was just okay, but the garlic butter bun stood out--nicely balanced between salty and sweet, and definitely the highlight. The egg bites were comparable to Starbucks; honestly, it's hard to say which is better, but Starbucks might have the edge in both portion size and price. The tiramisu iced coffee leaned too sweet--my partner especially felt it was a bit overdone. Ambiance was pleasant, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Would I come back? Probably to try the cakes. Otherwise, it's not a place I'd rush back to--but still worth checking out once.

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.

Look it's expensive and I'm not going to sugar coat it, but I ordered a lemon mint and i give a my blessings. If you're a hookah fanatic, I say it's worth the $70. Overall, I foresee myself being a regular on Sundays!

Dear Manager, I am…read morewriting to formally dispute a $750 charge that was presented to me during a birthday celebration at your establishment this past Saturday. During the event, your waiter informed us that the host had prepaid $2,000 toward the venue, food, and drinks. At one point, I specifically asked the waiter about separating the accounts because I wanted to make sure I could pay for my own drinks. The waiter told me that there was no need because the host had prepaid $2,000 and, at that time, the guests had only used approximately $800 of that amount. Later in the evening, after many guests had already left, the same waiter approached me and stated that my bill was $750. When I asked how my personal bill could possibly be $750, I was told that it was the bill for the entire table. I never agreed to be financially responsible for the entire table, nor was I informed that charges from other guests would be assigned to me. In fact, I had specifically asked earlier to have my own purchases separated. - Every item included in the $750 charge presented to me. - The reason those charges were assigned to my account rather than to the individuals who ordered them. - Any gratuity, service fees, taxes, or other charges included in that amount. I would appreciate management reviewing this matter carefully. I am willing to pay for anything that I personally ordered and authorized, but I do not accept responsibility for charges incurred by other guests without my knowledge or consent. Please contact me promptly with the itemized documentation and an explanation of how the $750 amount was calculated. If I was improperly charged, I expect the charge to be corrected or refunded accordingly. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to resolving it professionally and promptly.

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!!
