"Soricha is a hidden gem in Annandale with a calming ambiance. From the moment you step inside, you almost feel like you 're stepping into a cafe in Asia says my Japanese friend. The cafe 's lighting is warm and the seats are comfortable. It 's a great space to catch up with friends or catch up on personal work if you come alone. The menu is QR code style, and the staff brings you your food drinks. First off, let 's have a coffee chat about the bingsoo it 's GINORMOUS. Ever had a huge bowl of ramen at a Japanese restaurant? Yes. Your bingsoo will be THAT big. Come in a group of at least 3 5 people or else it 'll be too much for a couple to eat (unless if you and your partner are major sweettooths . The portions are generous, and each bite is a heavenly combination of fluffy Korean shaved ice and delicious toppings. We 've tried the black sesame and the injeolmi both are super nutty, not too sweet (best compliment from an Asian , and topped well with complimentary toppings cornflakes, almonds, and a scoop of red bean. You can add extra toppings if you 'd like for an extra charge. Beyond bingsoo, Soricha offers an impressive variety of teas, drinks, and desserts there 's something for everyone, ranging from typical Asian flavors (matcha, black milk tea to experimental (dandelion root, mugwort . Note that you may have to call in advance for a group larger than 5, as the space only offers two large tables. Whether you 're a tea aficionado, a bingsoo lover, or simply looking for a cozy spot to unwind by yourself or with friends, visiting Soricha is a must if you 're in the DMV. I highly recommended! Expect to spend about $10 $40, as drinks and food are on the higher end here."

"BLUF: the food is tasty, but it doesn't quite match it's menu description Four of us went on a Friday night. The wait staff was very friendly, but it seemed like they just couldn't wait to take a plate off your table. If you're not quite done with something you kind of have to lean over it to make sure they don't snap it up on the way by. I would recommend getting a reservation if you go on a weekend. The place was quite full and I was glad I made a reservation ahead of time. We didn't have any drinks or anything so here's a rundown of the food: Thai Beef Basil: it was actually relatively Bland, especially when you consider it had one of those little peppers next to it on the menu to indicate it was spicy. I ended up having to add a little wasabi from my Sushi to it to spice it up. The beef was well cooked and the gravy was very good. Teriyaki Vegetable: quite good, with pretty good fresh veggies thrown in Octopus sushi: very good. Wasn't rubbery like I often find, but it was a bit of a thin slice considering you're paying about 3.50 a piece for it Veggie gyoza: very good, with a nice crisp sear on it and veggies inside tasted fresh Herndon Roll: very good, with a nice balance of rice and fish Spicy Salmon and Yellowtail Roll: the role itself was pretty good, but again didn't live up to the spicy label put on it on the menu. If I were in the area I would go back, but I would definitely stick to the sushi."

"This has been one of our favorite restaurants for years. This time we were there for breakfast with the whole family of 9 including 3 generations and it was super special! The food was delicious, and the service makes you feel like royalty! It's a very relaxing but beautiful place to share special moments. The Greek Omelet is always a favorite but everything on Eleni's extensive menu is outstanding! And they have best coffee anywhere! 100 stars!!!"

"This place is wonderful! The food and service are amazing. The egg drop soup is easily the best I have ever tasted! Perfectly savory, moderately thickened, no added veggies with just the right amount of flavor. I wolfed it down too quickly to take a picture! The wonton soup is very delicious and mildly flavored. Perfect for me because I came in feeling quite nauseated. Because this was our first time, the waitress gave my husband and I some free wontons perfectly crunchy, with a pop of creamy filling and sweet sauce. My husband ordered moo shu pork. He was satisfied with the flavor, but said it was a bit dry without the added plum sauce. I ordered the broccoli dish with chicken and added veggies. The flavoring was mild and just right for an upset stomach. The veggies were perfectly cooked and flavorful. My only complaint is that the chicken was a bit fatty I’m quite picky about my meat, though. I’m grateful for the waitress here, who showed me such great compassion. It truly made my day. I came in a wheelchair and a neck brace. I have been through quite a bit recently with a major surgery. Our waitress did everything she could to make sure I was comfortable. She even held the door for us on the way out. Wheelchair accessibility: There was plenty of room for me to maneuver my wheelchair and the waitress was more than happy to make the adjustments I needed. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Egg Drop Soup, Wonton Soup"

"Came here to say for our anniversary dinner. Was recommended by a friend to try this place out. Naija was our server; she was very nice, attentive and gave great recommendations. We had to polipo for appetizer, pappardelle (specials menu) and taglioni al limone for dinner entrees. Great food will definitely come back to try out other items on their menu."
