Just because you’re ordering take out doesn’t mean you can’t order something special for an in-home date night – or just to give a Tuesday some extra flair! Cafe Tatti serves up French and European cuisine in McLean six days a week and offers take-out for dinner service.

About Caffe Tatti

Cafe Tatti began as the Iron Skillet in the mid-20th century under chef and founder John Kalpos, who passed the torch to the current owner, Yiannis Skliras, who had experience in fine New  York restaurants. Yiannis was born and raised in Greece, where hospitality is a sacred tenet of life, and he has spent his life honing his cooking and hospitality skills. The menu draws heavily from French cuisine, with elements of European influence as well as Greek influence, honoring Yiannis’ culture. Every dish is exquisitely crafted and every guest is important at Cafe Tatti, offering a one-of-a-kind dining experience in the Northern Virginia region.
