Sweet Leaf Cafe - McLean

This is a charming little place. The food and service are good, and the prices are reasonable for what you get. I appreciate that you can dine indoors or enjoy the outdoor seating when the weather permits. The ambiance features a rustic building with a trendy vibe that isn’t over the top. I will definitely return to eat here.

The staff was quite unfriendly. One customer requested a salad instead of kale on her sandwich and received a negative attitude regarding the request. The steak on the salad was overcooked and didn’t taste good. On the positive side, the restaurant was clean and nicely decorated.

**For Longer Readers:** I've visited this restaurant several times with my family, and I’ve never been disappointed. Personally, I find the inside seating quite lively, which can be great for creating a vibrant atmosphere, but it’s not ideal for conversations. The establishment is very clean most of the time, and I appreciate the tip jar—I'd rather leave cash when I pay with my card. After all, who doesn’t love cash? The staff works hard and are genuinely dedicated. However, the outdoor seating could use some improvement; the tips left on the tables and chairs could be a bit annoying. Nonetheless, the outdoor area is shaded, making it better for chatting. Overall, I love this place!

I've eaten here like four times and their sandwiches are chefs kissing? I love the chickenpesto and also recommend the smooth! this is a great place to go and you should definitely check it out!

I like the concept, but the roasted veggies in the Greek Roots salad I had were awful. It was pretty hot inside, too. Although, it was 98 F today. If you have a stroller or wheel chair, forget it. You aren't getting inside without help.
