Adorable animal-shaped cakes, from pandas to pigs to bears filled with chocolate buttercream and strawberry jam, will definitely be the center of attention at any children’s party. Other Virginia stores in Annandale, Chantilly, and Centreville join a Maryland outpost in Ellicott City." - Claudia Rosenbaum, Tierney Plumb

"The Korean-inspired bakery integrates Asian and European flavors to produce fanciful desserts called bingsoo — a hybrid of ice cream and shaved ice. Try the fruit bingsoo with vanilla ice cream, mixed fruit, milk, condensed milk, rice cake, and shaved ice or the coffee bingsoo with coffee ice cream, coffee syrup, corn flakes, rice cake, and shaved ice." - Rebecca Gale

Korean style bakery and pastry shop with typical Korean delicacies. I had the mango roll cake, a fluffy cake with sweet mango filling, and a medium latter. The ambiance is relaxed, with little tables for two to share. The service was efficient and sweet, my attendants were smiley and friendly. I recommend it, for a bite to eat and a coffee or tea!

Pastry and bakery items are super good but I'm disappointed in the bingsoo and coffee. I feel like if I'm getting bingsoo it should be actually be shaved ice and not crushed ice cubes that are small and not soft which I think bingsoo is when it's supposed to be shaved ice. I had the tiramisu bingsoo and it didn't really have a tiramisu taste but more like a chocolate syrup and dry cake texture.

Just not the same as the original location in northern Virginia in Annandale. Strawberry bingsoo was good - syrup was heavy and sweet Got a bubble tea as well and the tapioca was still quite hard. Staff were friendly enough but the mall atmosphere detracts from the whole experience a bit.

The sponge cakes were nice and moist, but the tiramisu in a cup was awful. The shaved ice was a giant ice of ice. The taste was artificial. The floor has not been swept in a while. The cashier was pleasant.

This Shilla bakery is located in Tyson’s Corner mall. Great place to stop and take a break from shopping. There not a lot of seating but that hasn’t been an issue. Service was pretty quick. The decor was great too. We ordered Thai Tea Latte and Nutella Donut. Thai tea latte wasn’t my favorite. It was more on the milky side and the tea taste was much more subtle. When I think of Thai Tea, I expect a stronger taste. This might not be for everyone though. Nutella Donut was definitely a highlight! I was craving something sweet and I got it. The pastry was soft and there was a lot of filling.

Excited to see a Shilla location in the mall, I’ve been to the other locations too. I went around 6:30pm on a Wednesday and it wasn’t busy, the self serve breads/treats was limited as expected for end of day. Got a few items, the cookie croissant, strawberry roll slice, almond cookies, and custard bun. The cookie croissant was over hyped because it’s dry either bc it was the end of day or bc it’s a day old croissant repurposed? Stick to the tried and true Asian buns. The roll cake looks moist but haven’t tried it yet. The black bubble tea was a 1 star. The tapioca tasted a little burnt. When I sipped it, immediate I tasted the drink mix crystals like it wasn’t dissolved or shook well enough. Don’t recommend the bubble tea, go to the other specialized chain bubble tea shops in mall.

Nice little bakery. I ordered the strawberry butter cream and blueberry yogurt cake slices along with a Japanese cheesecake. I must everything was decent however the Japanese cheesecake was actually the best. That was the one not in a display case. Overall though the staff safe friendly and the service is great.

Shilla Bakery is always fantastic, and this location is no exception. They have a huge selection of premade cakes, pastries, and such, along with all your coffee shop beverages. If you are looking for baked goods for breakfast, you will find all sorts of items here! I highly recommend the mango mousse cake! It's delicious, and light, and perfect for summer parties. There is plenty of seating inside the bakery if you are dining-in, but there is also a general seating area outside of the bakery.

Always pass Shilla from parking to the mall but this time we stopped in and wandered around. Great sandwiches to share and lots of dessert as they have a bakery on site. Great selection and tasty food and snacks.

Got the red bean bing su out of nostalgia. This Shilla location is new but I used to go to other locations growing up. The bing su was good, but I didn't like the peanut butter powder on top (tasted like PB fit from Costco). I think it would have been better to add water to it so that it was a peanut butter drizzle instead of so powdery (like doing the cinnamon challenge). The staff at this Shilla were nice, but they didn't have any samples and had a smaller bakery selection than the Shilla I was used to. They have seating inside which is nice and I liked the decor.

I ordered and iced chi tea latte with oat milk and their version of an Levain cookie. I enjoyed the cookie it was not too sweet. The service was great, the staff answered all my questions. The ambiance of the bakery was very clean for a busy Saturday during holiday season.

Cyril M.

Yelp

It was a nice area, but not a lot of seating capacity. It is more of a just a few rows of chairs but theres a little area outside the bakery that the mall provided so people can eat their food there. They have all the baked goods you would like to eat. Very good collection of different baked goods.

This is a nice bakery in Tysons corner if you ever feel a need to buy something sweet. The cakes here are good and they have other pastries and occasionally (if not sold out) good brioche. Overall, this place is great.

Came here to pick up some dessert after a day at the mall on a friend's recommendation. He loves this place and always orders his cakes from here. A lot of the baked goods were sold out when I got there as it was the end of the day but they seem to have a decent variety of cakes and desserts. I love fruity desserts and decided to go with the mango mousse cup. Although the portion size was decent, I felt that it tasted artificial and I wish it had more real fruit incorporated into it. I would like to come back at some point to try some of their other baked goods since my friend swears by this place!

Susana G.

Yelp

I like the place but wish the workers were more friendly and welcoming. I have been here two times and have ordered the ice cream and chocolate cake. They both were very tasty and unlike other ice creams that leave me thirsty, this place did not. The fruits on the cake tasted very fresh but the portion was not big and it can be pricey. There is bread but have yet to buy any as it's in the mall and haven't found the need to buy it nor the desire to try it at the times I've been here. There is plenty of seating and very spacious but somewhat hidden. Overall the food is good but the service could improve.

Shilla was one of my go to spots I would love visiting with my mom growing up. We would often come and try the various samples and pick up a few selections to go. Unfortunately I think they've stopped doing samples since COVID. Nonetheless, the breads are always super delicious, fluffy and creamy. We've also ordered a number of birthday cakes from here as well and they'll often give us a free roll when we do so. The cakes are overall pretty yummy, with a selection of flavors ranging from chocolate to matcha buttercream as well as fresh cream selections. My favorite items are the loaf of bread with cream, napoleon sand, rolls, and the glazed loaf that comes in a tin. Definitely stop by Shilla if you have a chance!

Been to this Shilla many times since opening because I worked in the mall at the time and have never had any bad experiences. It's a Korean cafe known to sell its signature pastries, breads, and desserts. The employees have always been nice and helpful if there were any questions. My favorite pastry is the custard cream bun! If you have never tried any Korean pastries, try the custard cream or red bean buns! You can also request to have the pastries like the Tuna bun warmed for you if you want!

Shilla is a classic local Korean bakery chain in the NOVA area. I have loved their Annandale, Centreville, and Chantilly locations, but their Tyson's shop doesn't hit the same. They still offer the standard bakery items (e.g. cream pans, swiss rolls, twisted doughnuts), and this location typically always offers Japanese jiggly cheesecake. However, the quality and variety here pale in comparison to their other shops. If you're in the mall and are craving a light pastry to eat, this is the place to go, but if you can venture out to their other locations, I would do so instead.

Found a hair in the cake!!! I drove from Maryland to this store to buy a cake for my daughter's birthday because she loves Asian bakery treats. We discovered a hair at the bottom of the cake, so I immediately called the store. Their customer service is truly lacking. The person who answered the phone didn't even offer an apology; instead, they asked me to return the cake to the store for them to investigate. I don't have the time to drive back to Virginia, and they should have at least apologized. This was a significant disappointment, and I will NEVER return to this store.

Service was super nice - they have a great team!! I forget what these twisty donut type sweets are called but they are to DIEEEE FOR!! Theyre amazing and we also got the mango roll cake (wasnt in my too 3 but my partner loved it) It's a nice quick stop and something different in the mall. They also have a wide variety of other flavors treats and cakes!

By far my favorite asian bakery in Tysons. Everything is always fresh and the flavors are, for me, better than Paris Baguette. Highly recommend! Prices are nice too.

To be completely truthful, I did not enjoy the food at Shilla Bakery & Cafe. I would say it's fine if you're in a pinch or want to satisfy a craving, but I can't quite recommend this place if you want something good. The egg tart tasted really old, almost stale and I ate it right as I bought it. The shortcrust was soggy and the egg had a weird taste to it--I don't know how to explain it. Maybe it was just a bad day though. My next problem was with the Bingsoo. Whenever I think of bingsoo, I think of a bed of soft fluffy ice topped with fresh fruits. There were an assortment of fruits which was nice except for the fact that some were from a can, like the peaches. I'd rather have less assortment but fresher fruits for my toppings. The ice was also not pleasant to chew.

HeideAnn S.

Yelp

This little bakery is differently delicious! So far I've tried the blended mocha boba, and a slice of chocolate butter cake! Both not overly sweet! The cake texture is fluffy and light! Delicate chocolate silky smooth frosting! This bakery offers full cakes, rolls, bread loafs, or slices! I'm looking forward to trying more from this bakery!

Yelp

Worth it? Yes Repeat? Depends Great place to pick up some cute birthday cakes while shopping at Tysons Corner. Korean opened bakery that's right beside Kung Fu tea stand. Less selection than the main Annandale location but had pretty good croquette. Inside seating is good enough to rest up, chat up while you take a break from the madness that is THE MALL.

Jenny G.

Yelp

The Condensed Milk Bread was to die for!! It was so soft and fluffy. The crust with the sweetened condensed milk soaked in was our favorite part, it added the perfect amount of sweetness. We were very pleasantly surprised since we weren't expecting much from a mall bakery. We will definitely be back to try more items the next time we're in the Tysons Corner Center!

Vivian R.

Yelp

I love Shilla, a Korean bakery and cafe similar to the Chinese bakeries I grew up with but more upscale. This location is no exception: a full bakery selection of cakes, bread, and pastries as well as boba and other cafe beverages. I thought it might be a smaller selection given the mall setting, but happily that is not the case. There is ample cafe seating too. The space is well lit, cozy, and inviting. The line can get long but all the staff we interacted with were all pleasant and efficient. In addition to the sweet breads stuffed with fluffy butter cream or sweetened bean paste there are also a variety of creative donuts and savory croquettes. Croissant breakfast sandwiches and baguette "pizzas" round out the selection of savory treats. We arrived as a fresh batch of buns was being stocked and bought a rather obscene amount - totally worth it. The cakes offered at Asian bakeries are European style - a lighter sponge cake with whipped icing and fruit - a nice alternative to the American sugar bomb birthday cakes we all know and love. We also never leave without getting the Swiss cake rolls. The prices are on the higher end for Asian bakeries, but I expected it given the mall location, fancier digs, and higher quality of baked goods. For example, cake rolls are usually $10-12 at similar bakeries and these were $15 but they are larger and heavier than standard cake rolls I get, and packaged in sturdy to-go boxes. Shilla will always be a stop when we are at Tyson's!

This is a really impressive Korean & Asian inspired bakery in Tysons Corner mall. I was looking for good quality coffee in the mall and was lucky to find nice bakery. I tried the mango mousse and bought a variety of Korean pastries with red bean filling and almond cream. I can't explain how good they were and how cool is to have such pastries so handy in the DMV (no need to go to Korea ;)! ) Service was good. Prices are towards the high side, some small pastries could cost ~$4.99 but given how special sweets are is it probably justified. Recommended if you are around Tysons Corner Mall

Erich R.

Yelp

A quite delightful Asian bakery in a branch of Tyson's mall. It seems to sell pastries and bakery items in portions from individual/bite-size to larger dishes/cakes fit for a party or gathering. The bakery items are very full/creamy, quite tasty, and with a variety of different palettes. There is a small seating area too for those who wish to sit down for a bit inside. They also sell some coffee/tea and ice cream dish items too but it seems their main focus is their bakery/pastry items. The prices seemed decent, not cheap but not overly expensive. Given that it's off in a side branch of Tyson's mall it can be easy to miss but definitely worth a visit to see if it's to your liking!

Claire H.

Yelp

So cute!! My friend and I accidentally walked past it when we were waiting for our movie to start in the mall and I'm so glad we did. The baked goods they have in there were so cute. They had cream filled bread rolls, swirl cake rolls, cookies and other traditional pastries! They also had bingsu (Korean shaved iced). There were three different options, a coffee one, fruit one, and I can't remember the third. My friend and I got the friend bingsu. It has three scoops of ice cream (vanilla, strawberry and matcha), shaved ice, sliced fruit at the bottom and topped with corn flakes and Oreos. It was delicious.

I came here with very high recommendations from friends. Located inside the Tyson's corner mall, it is a convenient place to eat while at the mall. Ham and cheese baguette: was amazing. Wish they heated it up right. I have requested to get it heated, but it wasn't that warm. Still it was good. Fruit cake: the cake part was a bit dry. However, I liked the cream was not butter based. Vanilla roll: I personally love swiss rolls, but this wasn't that good. Napoleon: I didn't really like it. I forgot to order the boba tea, maybe next time. All in all, it is a good place to eat, but not the best bakery. Usually Korean bakeries are better than this.

It's worth a visit, but I'm not sure if I'd come back here again...I usually LOVE Korean bakeries (and bingsoo even more), but something about this particular Shilla Bakery spot just didn't hit quite right. They have less selection than the Annandale location, and everything just felt a bit...less fresh than I'm used to? You can definitely still tell that they used high quality ingredients, but it feels like many of the baked goods they were selling had been sitting out for one too many days and many of their boba teas felt like they had added a touch too much sugar. Overall, all of those things were fine, though...I think that my greatest disappointment was in their bingsoo. I ADORE bingsoo, love ice cream, and have a strange obsession with fruit, but something about the way Shilla Bakery combined the three just made none of them particularly enjoyable. They used plain shaved ice (as in literal ice made out of water), which is not really how bingsoo should be made, so it felt like I was just eating icicles. The ice cream was tasty, but just didn't go well with the ice crystals, and the fruit was all clearly frozen or from a can. I was incredibly disappointed by their bingsoo, and would honestly boost this spot by a star if they simply removed it from their menu altogether. I did really appreciate the ambiance of the store, however. It was really peaceful and well-decorated, and it was a great place to just sit and relax after the hustle and bustle of the Tysons Corner mall.

I had tickets to watch a free movie at the AMC, but it was overcrowded and I was turned away. You know what helps a bad mood, sweets and other baked goods. I got myself a chicken croquet, little fish shaped doughnuts (I guess) with cream in it, and some chocolate almond cookies. All the items I bought were pretty tasty and made me happy. I wish I tried their cake but I wasn't in the mood for it at the time. Hopefully next time I come here, it's after I've watched a movie.

Shilla Bakery in Tysons is awesome! It can be a bit hard to find so just a heads up it's on the 3rd floor close to American Tandoor :) I've been here quite a few times and have always had a great experience - literally everything here is amazing you basically can't go wrong with whatever you choose I picked up a birthday cake for my girlfriend the other day and they really went above and beyond - thank you for the candles and for the little cookie which said Happy Birthday! It made her really happy The lady who gave us the cake was very kind and we appreciated her so much - thanks again, we'll definitely be back!

Yelp

I've visited this place many many times and tried a lot of buns. I'd only rebuy the red bean bun. Prices are okay. Just don't expect to get Chinatown-quality food here. I do appreciate that they offer some free tastings in the store.

Bert O.

Yelp

Can I say that I like their pastries more than their Bubble Tea. As far as Bubble Tea, my favorite is the Honey Dew. It has a freshness that I like. I love that Korean bakeries don't make their pastries with too much sugar. I recently had their Cheesecake Bread and it left me wanting more. I also have had their Condensed Milk Bread. I've also had their Panda Cake multiple times. My only complaint is that their bread sells quick for the day. It's better to go early in the day if you want a specific bread.

Shena H.

Yelp

I really enjoy the Annandale location. Unfortunately here nothing really taste right... We get the brown sugar bubble tea and here they load it up with soooo much milk and little brown sugar syrup. It taste like diluted cereal water. Plus the bubble was crumbly and just taste off. Their pastries don't seem to be baked the same way as the original location. It just doesn't seem like they put love into their food here at this location.

All perfect for me service very good ambiance is cool and cozy staffs are very helpful

CB F.

Yelp

Service was great, however, food quality was not the typical "A+" like the Shillas' pioneer locations in Annandale and Centreville. Perhaps it's because the Tysons branch is merely a satellite -- at least this is the assumption I'm making due to their sun-par level, apparent in the disappointing bingsu I ordered. Ambiance in their Tysons location sufficiently met the high level expected of a Tysons Corner establishment.

Shilla has really good variety of bread and drinks! It's a Korean pastry shop and it's located inside the Tysons Corner mall. If it's your first time there, you can try some of the bread that they have as tasting but they're all pretty good! My favorite from the Korean pastry is the fresh cream cake. The whole cake is good to buy for celebrations or birthdays. They give you candles and plastic knife with your purchase. Try the fresh cream cake if you haven't! You won't be disappointed. This Shilla has a lot of different varieties of bread and other dessert. It's a good spot for you to grab dessert and chill with friends. They also make good smoothies/shakes and tea drinks. I LOVE korean bakery and I'm so happy that there is one in Tysons! If you buy bread, they will package it in individual bag. Let me know if you need any recommendations!

Another day, another Shila Bakery. I love this bakery. No matter what I get the snacks are so good. The employees could be a little friendly, but always clean. Maybe a bit more of description on labels of food items for people woth food allergies.

Shilla Bakery & Cafe had Tyson's first boba tea, and still serves the best. They also have a nice, but basic, selection of Korean pastries and offer sandwiches and a few hot dishes when fully staffed. The bulgogi is a great light meal on days when it is available. The location is a simple respite from the bustle of the mall. Calming decor and a few spare tables provide a welcoming atmosphere and a nice place to sit for a bit with a friend. My favorite time to visit Shilla is actually on the way to my car. It's on my way to the parking lot anyway, but means that my drive home is accompanied by a delicious cold drink and a pastry or two. I particularly enjoy their Misugaru multi grain drink, as it is as filling as it is delicious. Their drinks are not as sweet as some other brands, which I appreciate. Their flavors are strong and delicious. Skip the other guys, give Shilla a try!

Victoria B.

Yelp

I'm definitely jumping on the bandwagon. I look forward to stopping by Shilla everytime I go to Tysons mall. There are tons of samples, you can literally sample everything and end up leaving full. My favorites are the red bean paste and nutella pastries. The cakes are good as well, the cake is nice and airy soft but the buttercream is a bit on the bland side. If you do get a cake I'd recommend one with fruit in it so the sweetness will balance out the bland cream. The bubble tea is also good when the line at Kung Fu is too long

Esther P.

Yelp

the ambience and bread selections are good but the bingsoo was the worst i've ever had. see picture for reference. literal shaved iced with strawberry syrup and a few strawberry pieces in the middle with some weird texture strawberry ice cream. i was extremely disappointed and honestly almost asked for my money back. it's awful to say but the best part of the bingsoo was the ice.. literal ice. PLEASE consider changing this on your menu or just take it off altogether.

I am a regular customer ar Centerville. This store at Tyson Mall is more like meh. I got charged 8.95 for a cup of bingsoo? It says $6.19 on the screen. I was told it is the old price on the screen; then why still show it there? The young lady got snappy after questioning her. I don't want to argue so its OK, anyways, I have my choice not to come back or not for an overpriced store whose personnel are not very helpful at all.

Located in Tyson Corner Center is this great Korean bakery. I've been to my fair share of Asian bakeries here in California but this bakery I'm Virginia simply stood out for me. I was amazed right from the start. Almost all of their fresh bread offerings had sample baskets in front. All the customers could have a taste of the various breads before purchasing! I thought this was very generous and kind of their bakery and a great way for customers to see what they liked. Aside from fresh baked goods like breads and cakes, this place also coffee, tea, espresso, boba, bingsoo, ice cream, sandwiches, panini a, wraps, salads and various Asian plates (donkatsu, yakisobi, bulgogi). I got to try their Mammoth bread (red bean and cream) and Shu bread (custard and cream). The Shu bread is nice and soft and has a good amount of custard cream inside. The Mammoth bread is my favorite. It has a fair amount red bean and cream inside and I like the outside texture of this bread. (Note the Mammoth bread comes in a whole piece for $6 and a half piece for $4. The big piece is a better deal!) I really liked this place and found myself visiting twice during my Virginia trip. I'd go back again if ever I am in the area.

Yelp

They put a Shilla in the mall! Genius! The one in Annandale is very much a sit and study or socialize on the weekends type of locale. This one is one of those places where you'll end up stopping by every single time you're at the mall for some other reason. It's a fabulous alternative to "hey, let's take a shopping break at the food court/Starbucks." As usual, there's a good selection of breads. I feel like they offer more savory options at this location. It's a good sized store, and they seem to feature non-baked goods more at this location as well: tonkatsu, yaki soba, etc. Good on them. They put themselves in a pretty strategically smart spot, and now I have somewhere I always have to make a pit stop at when I'm in Tyson's.

We went here and bought a mango slush with bobba. As a Pilipina mango is one of the fruits that we have naturally grow in the Philippines. I was disappointed on how the slush tasted cause it taste like a fake flavored mango and the bobba texture is like a bobba that came from freezer and they let it melt a little and put it in my slush. But i like the store cause theyre pastries are phenomenal. They also put free samples around the store for customers to taste which is also one of the reasons why i go there. Haha

The pastry gods have answered my prayers with a Korean bakery at my favorite mall! If you have never tried Korean pastries, you are missing out! I love how the cakes and pastries are light and fluffy - satiating my sweet tooth gradually so that my taste buds aren't attacked by the sugar fairy. Perfect pick-me-up for all the hard shopping that you have been doing. My friend and I came for two slices of cake and a bunch of Korean savory pastries, which keep well in the freezer for more than a week.

Lauren C.

Yelp

Located next to Auntie Annie's, it's somewhat further in the back but it's worth taking a visit. Still can't believe they are in Tysons now, they shouldn't have a problem. I would only order two things from here, their bingsoo and boba tea. If you get tired from walking around the mall or try escaping from the humid bi polar summer weather here, those two treats will replenish your soul! Drink/Eat responsibly or else you might get brain freeze. Little small, but manageable, most of the pastries were sold out by then end of the day. They put out samples, which some people just eat all of it but it's a help yourself cafe like all the other Korean Bakeries around NOVA.

On our last visit to Tyson's Corner Plaza we happened to pass by Shilla and being an Asian bakery fiend, I couldn't help myself from dropping in to explore their tempting pastry selection. It's a small bakery that not only does pastry, but also offers some really cool cakes available to order (you can even peruse their catalog which offers stuff like Hello Kitty and Pokemon). I elected to grab a bag of Madelines and a pound cake for my wife. Mmm, the madelines were excellent, buttery, soft and simply delicious! I was quite impressed on my first visit and looking forward to my next!

Jocel G.

This is one of the newer shilla bakery locations. It's convenient because it's in tysons corner mall. You can just go there while your shopping and what not. However; this is not my favorite location because they don't have all of the selections like in the Annandale location. They don't have snow fluff and some desserts such as Creme brûlée. Nonetheless, this location is still great. It's very cute and clean. There's some dining inside which is good. The location is kinda small because the pastries section is tiny and can get very crowded. There is samples for literally everything which is amazing! It's a good way to know which pastry you want because there are too many to choose from! I recently got their twisted donuts, Nutella donut and mango bingsoo. The twisted donuts were delicious and crunchy. So sweet and yummy. It can get messy because of the sugar. The Nutella donut was to die for. GET IT. The mango bingsoo was HUGE. I literally could not finish it even with the help of other people. It's a lot of food for $10. It has shaved ice with fresh mangos, Mochi, some mango flavored jelly things, mango ice cream and condensed milk. It just sounds like mango heaven! I also tried their tiramisu bingsoo, it was good also but tiramisu just isn't my cup of tea when it comes to flavors. I've also tried their Korean ice coffee and it was delicious and very sweet. I liked it. Overall, it's a cute bakery and cafe with yummy pastries that you can try before buying!

I had no idea that there was a new store that opened up here! I was just walking to the food court with my s/o when I saw a rows of baked goods and lots of Asians inside- I looked up and bam SHILLA shone bright on the storefront! This store had a more sophisticated feel to it than the other one in Rockville, with similar goods. It also sells bingsoo, lattes, etc. I chose to get the pizza bread and cream cheese bread- one was better than the other. The pizza bread consisted of two pieces of toast piled with coleslaw, cheese, and some kind of meat. It was filling, but way too much mayo/cream for my liking. They were kind enough to heat it up for me, but the cheese was still all stuck together on the top, making it messy to eat. The cream cheese bread came right out of the oven and was delicious! The cream was sweet and savory, and just made me roll my eyes back in content. Best cream cheese I have EVER tasted! As I walked around the lighted ice rink with my s/o, eating the pastry together felt like I was in some scene from a kdrama. Now for the service, the lady who was restocking the baked goods was very helpful, giving me great suggestions and offering to heat up the goods. The three people at the cashier register were confused when I asked them to ring me up for the pizza bread while it was being heated up- they didn't know which one I was referring to until I brought them another one, but I just chalk it up to inexperience. Also, when you buy something, they will give you a 20% off coupon that you can reuse as many times as you want until 1/31! Give them a try- you won't be disappointed!

They have an interesting selection of all types of baked goods and drinks so you're bound to find something you'll enjoy. I tried a goldfish pastry I enjoyed and will stop be here again if I'm nearby.

Lovely store a must when you're in the area. Charming staff and tastes as good as it looks.

By far my favorite asian bakery in Tysons. Everything is always fresh and the flavors are, for me, better than Paris Baguette. Highly recommend! Prices are nice too.
