"An absolute gem—if I could give more than 5 stars, I would! I cannot say enough good things about cafecito From the moment you walk in, it is clear that this place is special. The ownership is truly amazing; you can tell they pour their heart and soul into the business, and it shows in every detail. That passion extends to the entire team. The employees are welcoming, professional, and attentive. As for the menu, the coffee is top-tier and the food was absolutely delicious. It is rare to find a spot where the service, atmosphere, and quality of goods are all perfect. Highly recommended!"

"Lunch at Cafecito was perfect - the café is cozy, there's a shaded outside seating, staff was welcoming and friendly. We had a delicious salmon&avocado toast and a huge steak sandwich, the food took some time to prepare, but was brought out hot and yummy. Later we got coffee, which was also hot and full of flavour. We'll back :)"

"I really wanted to love this place. I have came here before when it was under different management so I thought I should try out the new one as well! I ordered the Iced cookie butter latte and two breakfast burritos. I was super disappointed that it took almost THIRTY mins to be done. I completely understand for 15-20 mins but 30 was way too much given I had to go to work. It should not take that long for a latte and two breakfast burritos to come out. I let it go since there were only two people working in the back. However, once I opened my burrito, I realized they forgot to put the sauce included. Super disappointing for spending almost $40."

"We were so excited that Cafecito has extended its hours to open at 8 AM! During our visit for breakfast, we ordered an Iced Horchata Latte, a Café de Olla, and the Smoked Salmon Toast...all of which were excellent. Every ingredient of the Smoked Salmon Toast tasted so fresh and flavorful. The same morning that we visited, Cafecito had been crowned winner of the 2025 “Best Coffee Shop in Arlington” poll as part of the ARLnow Readers’ Choice Awards. Congrats! Based on our coffee orders, we would certainly agree with this designation. Cafecito is conveniently located right off the Custis Trail, making it a great spot to stop for some delicious food and refreshing drinks after a walk, hike, or bike ride! The space itself is bright and would be comfortable for reading, working remotely, meeting friends for a book club, etc. Cafecito is very much the place to spend a more relaxed morning, inviting you to slow down and enjoy some Mexican flavors in a city that tends to be so hustle-bustle. Cafecito, we are rooting for you! Thank you for sharing your talent for cuisine and vision with our community."
