    I am Panda Frappe
    Freya O.

    This place is super cute and the drink I ordered (the I am Panda frappe, pictured) was so yummy! It was difficult to pick what to order since so much of the menu looks amazing. Despite being metal, the chairs were still comfortable enough to sit in for a full hour and a half while I chatted with my friend. This shop also appeared to have a selection of books, possibly a free library type situation, though there wasn't any signage near the books so it was unclear. Overall I definitely enjoyed hanging out here with my friend!

    Delicious strawberry banana smoothie! The environment is very friendly and they have stamp cards, so every 10th drink is free. Was disappointed I couldn't find an up to date online menu anywhere so I mostly wrote this review to post that for other people (and myself).

    Nice family owned business. Searching for good Vietnamese Coffee made by Vietnamese lol. Found it. Especially in Overland Park. I watched her make it. It was shaken not stirred. Service was quick if you get here when they open. Very clean environment with plenty of seating.

    What a fun afternoon treat! *Just a heads up, they'll be closed from 1/31/23 until 3/8/23 to update their menu.* If you haven't had boba before, there are TONS of flavors and combinations. All of which are partnered with a bunch of little gummy balls at the bottom of your drink that themselves in various flavors. They even have some that are juice filled and literally POP in your mouth! So fun. My only reason for not giving a 5-star was just average service. Nothing was bad persay, but other than letting me try one of the boba flavors when I asked for it, the service was... adequate. Nothing that draws me back in.

    Taro. What a cute lid!!!

    10/10, this place was so good. Lots of options, include lactose free ones. The store itself is so cute, and their little logo is a bao bao (bun/dumpling). Tried their taro at 70% sweet (hint, you really only need 50%!) and added some boba. It came with flan. Super smooth, flavorful, sweet, and milky. I drank that thing so fast. The bobas are sweet as well. Not hard like some other places. And the lids that they use are also so cute! This is one of my top boba places in all of KC.

    I've been here several times and it has never disappointed! They have many flavors of drinks. Something for everyone! I've tried a few of the fruity and a few of the milk tea flavors. The service is always good. Sometimes it takes a bit, depending on how busy they are. The shop is cute and cozy as well.

    Jasmine green almond milk tea & Brown sugar boba milk
    Samantha W.

    I've tried about 60ish boba spots (California, Vegas, Hawaii) since June 2022. Basically I'm addicted. Great that they brew the tea on the spot. Love when boba shops go for a quality product. It's also great that they offer almond & coconut milk but I personally prefer oat milk with boba. We ordered 2 Ari goddess (1 with coconut milk & 1 with house creamer) and a jasmine almond milk tea. My go-to order is a jasmine oat milk tea. But I love quality jasmine green tea in general. The jasmine almond milk tea here was unfortunately bitter and could've had a nicer jasmine taste/aroma. Possibly the tea was brewed at too high a temp therefore burning the leaves causing it to be bitter? The ari goddess were alright. I personally didn't think the brown sugar syrup had a good caramelish flavor that other places typically have with brown sugar boba. The boba itself was alright. Boba was cooked through, nice size but it could've had a better flavor as it was sweet but also kind of bland. Service was okay, friendly. Except the person taking our order didn't know what I meant when I asked. "Is the jasmine green tea just brewed tea or is there flavoring added?". They didn't understand what I was asking and I had to try to clarify 3 times. For the area, this could be pretty good. But in comparison overall...it wouldn't be my top pick. *In response to business owner Nam N:* Actually yes, I have been to about 60ish boba shops since June 2022. I may not have written a review for all of them but to make such a quick and concrete assumption that I have not is interesting. You could've at least scrolled through my Yelp photos from the last 8 months to see if your assumption was right or wrong before making such an accusation on your own business page. 1. No, jasmine green tea is not bitter by itself. Get some quality jasmine green like TWG and brew at the correct temp and steep at the correct time. I've had jasmine oat milk tea countless times and with almond sometimes as well....I know what it is and what it should be like with non-dairy milk. The quality of the tea should be able to stand on its own without extra sweeteners, powdered creamer and/or dairy milk. Me not enjoying the drink had nothing to do with the fact that it contained almond milk. 2. I never said that the ari goddess was described as having caramel as an ingredient. Just the same as when wine sommeliers describe a specific wine with notes of fresh cut grass...that doesn't mean it was actually made with grass. My personal opinion was that the brown or black sugar syrup didn't have a nice caramel-like flavor that most good brown sugar bobas have. And then to sound defensive and triggered as a business owner by telling a paying customer who decided to spend their money at your establishment "u should learn more before write out ur limited knowlege!" is not only interesting but also an unprofessional response. Not everyone has the same tastebuds/palette, not everyone will have the exact same opinion for everything such as just because French Laundry has 3 Michelin stars - some will think it's the best meal of their lives and some will think the food is overrated. You don't have to take any or all opinions personally. It could be seen as constructive criticism and/or it could be taken as "ah well can't please everyone let's move on with life" instead of basically calling a paying customer a liar with no knowledge.

    I would give this place 10 stars if we could!!! If you love Boba Tea, this is definitely a place to try! Their teas are just as delicious and intoxicating as they look. Favorite Drink is Ari Goddess but their Taro is a tie for the first. They have THE BEST TARO TEA in the entire city. I add brown sugar boba to my Taro Tea. Not only are the flavors delish, but the prices are right on target! Best price in the city! Average about $5.50-6 a cup. Try it! You won't regret it.

    amazing in the moonbean ice cream 67!?!!!!! i felt the skibiti flavors of the banana and strawberry that its better than ballerina cappuccina!(i am a gen-z so sorry)

    50% sweet, milk tea w/ boba
    Jonathan W.

    Let's be honest, there is not very much boba in KC at all - but Ari Delights is probably the best in KC I've been able to find so far. Admittedly, I don't know if they are called BaoBao or Ari Delights - their cups say BaoBao but google maps label it as Ari Delights. Either way, it's a decent place. I ordered the milk tea w/ boba, 50% sweet. The milk tea was quite good, you can still taste the tea and it's not too milky, and the sweetness level is pretty accurate. The boba itself was not the best, but I would still definitely get it again over any other boba place in KC. I would certainly recommend this place, come check it out!

    Outstanding! Massive portions and generous servings of boba. Sweetness was on point too - I enjoyed 50% while my family members said 75% was perfect for them. I had the milk-based Ari delight (no tea/caffeine) with boba and flan. My mom, aunt, and uncle indulged in the taro milk tea with boba. Drinks came out promptly and were super enjoyable! Drinks are around $5/each which is fair given the serving size and average cost at other shops :)

    Went here recently and really enjoyed it! The décor is very inviting and cute. But they also have some old school coffee/espresso machines as decorative pieces that really look cool! They even have two small arcade games to play inside. The menu has a great selection of cold, hot, and frozen drinks - and you're able to pick what sugar level you want! I ordered the "Oh My Taro with Flan" at 25% sugar and it was so yummy! Everything our group ordered was made quickly, look delectable, and tasted great! I am definitely glad we found this Boba shop as we had never heard of it before.

    Went here before our movie date night to get some boba as it was fairly close by to the movie theater we were going to. First time here but it was definitely a treat. The staff was friendly and it's also Vietnamese owned. The inside is very inviting, bright, and filled with a lot of fun decor. They also have a couple of old school arcade games. One was the ninja turtles game and the other one was the Simpsons. We had quite a bit of time to kill and ending up finishing both games lol. Compared to many other boba places around town this one was pretty cheap at only 5 dollars and you get a pretty large cup. The menu has a lot of flavors and unique options. It was hard to pick as many of them looked really good. They also offer sweetness and ice level adjustment. I went with one thousand eyes which had dragon fruit oolong tea, chia seeds and coconut milk. I usually will add a topping but chose to order this one as is. It's pretty good as is but I'll definitely add a topping next time just for a little extra sweetness. Will definitely come back again next time we're in the area.

    There are some shops I will go out of my way to frequent. Their products, customer service and IT…read morefactor just make it worth the effort. Java Jazz is not one of those places. It's good but not OMG GOOD! This coffee shop is located inside the student center of a large community college. Java Jazz is tucked away near the dining center and there is no large signage. You need to look for this place because it might be easy to miss. This is a small shop but they have all the coffee basics. They also have various pastries, sandwiches and other noshables to get you through the day. I have not tried the food but it seems to be popular. Java Jazz has stiff competition in the food department, though, since it is located next to a Pizza Hut and well stocked food court. I am not a fancy coffee person. I favor the basics with, perhaps, a wee bit of flavoring. I have enjoyed all the drinks I have ordered here. They seem to be quite capable in the coffee arts. Granted they are not able to offer the selection given through Starbucks or other chain coffee shops. The selection seems to fit the location and customer base. If coffee is not your thing, there are many other beverages sold here. They have bottled water, vitamin drinks and those healthy drinks that I never bother to buy. The prices are reasonable. There is nothing here to give you sticker shock. The staff is pleasant enough but they do not seem to wildly enthusiastic. No complaints here, though. There is a seating area which is nice and cozy. One huge plus is the noise level is average so you are actually able to carry on a conversation when you are here. This is a nice place, it's just not WOW.

    Coffee is fine, whatever you do, DO NOT BUY Palmiers, I tried to tell them that they are very chewy…read moreand under cooked. They claim this is normal... This is the worst I have ever tasted. No JavaJazz, educate yourselves, Palmiers are flaky and light.
