I purchased a double scoop Kalfi and Mocha Almond. Both were delicious. The Kalfi was especially unique and delicious.

Very interesting concept as this place seems to be more of a dessert shop, I am curious on how good the viet food is.. maybe one day! I ordered the valentine bingsu which consist of a bunch of fruit and vanilla ice cream. The bingsu was advertised with "milky ice flavor" which I did not taste the "milky" part. The shredded ice was a great consistency, though! Easy to scoop up, melts fast, & not ice-y which to me is crucial to a decent bingsu. The strawberries paired were great and very sweet, the peach felt like it was from a can, pineapple gave off canned vibes, except it was extremely bitter and basically gone bad. Mangoes were OK not very sweet and Vanilla ice cream was good but you can't go wrong with that if it's store-bought. Overall would give this a 5/10 maybe 4.5/10. You order on the kiosk or at the counter. I opted for the kiosk as the employees were busy, I did however asked at the counter to Change my order after once I realized they had the valentine bingsu since I was feeling more fruit desserts (originally ordered the strawberry & cream). They were accommodating which I appreciated! Service was nice for the most part - the guy that served me my order did not acknowledge me when I said thank you... or when we took him the dish after the food and said thanks again lol service can be spotty based on who you get I guess? Again Curious on the viet food here!

Molt'n Cookies is a made to order cookie business inside Eataliano in Broadlands. There is no sign…read morefor Moltn, but it is inside the Eataliano. There's plenty of free parking in the lot in the complex. The ambiance inside is very casual and doubles as the storefront for the restaurant. You can order on the kiosk and pick from either regular or specialty cookies. The flavors were unique but they were kind of expensive for the quality ($5.49/cookie). We ended up waiting like 15 minutes for our cookies since they baked them, but they got our order wrong and got us the right one for free. The cookies, in general, were both burnt but also underbaked. Also, we didn't get them in the moltn brand cardboard boxes, but in styrofoam boxes instead. The peanut butter cookie had a good flavor, but the red velvet and s'mores were average. I probably would only try this once if you're craving a big cookie with a unique flavor if it's the only place open in the area.

I've been maybe 3-4 times and so far it's been a super chill cafe experience here. Beignets and dipping sauces, along with some drink options, are more than enough for me. I will say they're a little denser than say Cafe Du Monde in NOLA, but overall feel pretty representative. Maybe timing when you go is super important. I've only gone early-mid mornings on the weekend and everything I've had tasted super fresh, but some of the other experiences I'm reading feel like what happens when I reheat some older ones I kept in the fridge. Definitely gotta try them while they're hot!

They also had an osmanthus flower drink and a signature drink with grapes that was very tasty as well. The hands on part was my favorite. They walked us through how to properly whisk our own matcha and let us practice the technique ourselves. On top of that, we got to sample a variety of their teas throughout the class. The owner clearly knows their craft. Their in-store matcha has actually won awards, and you can taste the quality difference. The space itself is beautifully curated too, with a whole shelf of adorable teaware and gifts to buy afterward. Such a fun, educational experience for a group. Highly recommend if you want to actually learn about matcha rather than just drink it!!!

There are also a bunch of tea accessories which I find very adorable however could be a bit pricey. The drink selection is pretty big. The drink I got however wasn't my favorite. I got the lime guava strawberry oolong. When I tasted the sample it was very yummy. However when I ordered it the drink came with so much stuff inside, it made the drink experience kinda disappointing. The sample was strained so I didn't think the drink was going to have guava seeds inside of it. While drinking it the seeds were impossible to ignore as they were hard and small. It's like a choking hazard really. I wish they had strained it before serving. So just be warned about some of the drinks you order.

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!

No thank you. Completely over priced for what you get. Owner was very rude, snobby, and elitist.read more

I wasn't ready for a full meal but a spot at the bar opened so I was hooked. A menu unveiled itself and I was entranced. The entire dishes looked great - if a bit pricey. But not what I wanted at the moment, so pass. But there were plenty of small dishes so went with the pork buns. Those things were small but packed with flavor. The bartender suggested a fork and knife were appropriate since it was so delicate and he was right. But the cocktails!!! Dessert goodness in a glass.
