Matcha Cafe Maiko - Centreville

I've been a regular at this place since it first opened, and I absolutely love it. The owner is very friendly and puts in a lot of effort. Whenever I have a craving for matcha, this is my go-to spot! Their matcha and hojicha frappé are my favorites; they strike the perfect balance between strong flavors and sweetness. Plus, the mix of matcha and vanilla soft serve is incredibly creamy and sweet. Sometimes, when you walk in, you can smell the freshly made waffle cones, which adds to the experience!

The matcha powder at this restaurant is the best I’ve ever had. It’s rich and dark, with a wonderfully bitter aftertaste that really captures the essence of authentic matcha. The aroma is fantastic as well. The taro soft serve was also delightful, accompanied by chewy mochi and other toppings that added a great texture. My favorite was the hojicha matcha ice cream float; it’s the perfect combination for me. The hojicha tea has a unique, bold flavor from the roasted tea, and when mixed with the matcha ice cream, it creates a sweet and aromatic dessert that’s cold, melting, and wonderfully delicious, blending the bitterness of tea and matcha in an incredibly tasty way!

Absolutely fantastic for a hot summer day—pretty much every day this summer! The matcha shaved ice was delicious, and the matcha Maiko was equally impressive. The vanilla matcha and ube flavors were all outstanding!

I love everything matcha. When I found out about Matcha Cafe Maiko, I was stunned because this is the perfect place for me. I was in the mood for some thing sweet and cold so I ordered a matcha and vanilla mix soft serve. The mix was impeccable, I enjoyed every scoop. The prices are fairly reasonable and you're getting worth every penny. The establishment is clean, and conveniently located. I can see myself coming back many more times to try new menu items.

First time here and it was great! Admittedly, we went in 15 min before closing and yet it was BUSY (in a good way! . They still let us purchase our cones and it was delicious. I enjoyed the Ube Vanilla Mixed Soft Serve with the waffle cone. The Vanilla wasn't anything special but the Ube was incredible as well as the waffle cone. At the bottom of the cone is a small mochi as well which was a sweet surprise. My boyfriend had the Match and Vanilla Mixed Soft Serve and enjoyed his cone as well. Overall a super solid 4/5
