I ordered a guava ice tea with lychee jellly and boba. It came out disgusting sweet. I asked for him Tj change it and he gave me milk jasmine tea. I said I want jasmine boba - then he came back with plain jasmine tea. No boba no jelly. Just frustrated. Why did I pay you $9.00 for this? And when I said thank you he said Ya! And walked away. Also just got home, put the udon in a bowl. It came with two fish cakes. I paid extra $5.00 for additional fish cakes that never came. RIP OFF.

Such a cute little shop! When you walk in, there's a self order touchscreen right by the entrance,…read morewhich makes things super easy. The lady working there (an older woman) was just the sweetest. She greeted us with a big smile, welcomed us in, and even thanked us for stopping by. It really made the visit feel extra personal. We tried a few drinks: the Mango Fresh Milk with boba was light, refreshing, and not overly sweet which is perfect for a hot day. The Iced Matcha with boba was smooth and flavorful; I loved that it actually tasted like real matcha. I did ask for less ice, which oddly came with an extra 85 cent charge, but honestly, it was still worth it. My daughter got the Kuma Blue Cloud Raspberry, which was creamy, fun looking, and caffeine free! It's definitely a nice spot to grab a good drink and relax for a bit. The only downside is that they don't have a public restroom, which was a little inconvenient. Still, we'll definitely be back for more drinks and that friendly service!

2.5 STARS kuma cafe…read moreis a small cafe serving quick bites and boba, conveniently located in downtown san rafael. even though it's in downtown san rafael, i've never had trouble finding street parking nearby. since you order on a tablet, there's not usually anyone behind the counter until the food comes out. it seems like there's only one person working, so it can sometimes take a bit for things to come out. i usually order online for a quicker pickup, although it's slightly more expensive. there are a few tables inside, but it's really a to-go place. - egg sandwich w/ salad (2.5/5): i love japanese egg sandwiches, so i really wanted to try this! the sandwich had a good kewpie mayo flavor, and it was slightly sweet. i enjoyed the flavor, but the sandwich was too wet and messy to eat. some of the mayo was dripping out of the sides. there were also small bits of tobiko and cabbage. it wasn't a big sandwich for the price, but it did come with a salad that was topped with a good sweet and creamy dressing - spicy tuna sandwich w/ chips (1/5): literally like canned tuna with some spicy seasoning, although it wasn't super spicy. it also had some thick slices of cucumber and red onion. the chips were kind of stale, and they tasted like they were supposed to be ruffles or lays salted chips. this was pretty disappointing, and i'm not sure why it cost that much - poke (2.5/5): pretty standard, and an okay portion for price. they offered all of the basic ingredients and different kinds of fish. my bowl didn't have a lot of fish in it, but they did give me a lot of tamago (sweet egg), which made up for the lack of protein. i ordered the soy house sauce, but it reminded me more of a bright ponzu. honestly, the ingredients didn't really taste the freshest, but i thought it was fine and the best food i tried here - jasmine rose milk tea (1.5/5): strong rose flavor! it was still pretty sweet at 50% sugar, and it got overwhelmingly sweet by the end. i usually finish drinks, even if i don't like them, but it was hard to finish - sando brown sugar milk tea (4/5): my favorite milky drink i tried! it had a pretty good black tea and chocolate malt flavor. i really liked the crunchy texture of the malt topping, although i think it could've used a little less malt and more drink. i thought this was very unique! - lychee dragon fruit (4/5): like a light lemonade! i didn't really taste the lychee. the dragon fruit flavor was subtle, but it was definitely there, especially at the end with all the dragon fruit bits. it came with lychee jelly, which made the drink pretty sweet - fizzy yuzu (4/5): literally a yuzu soda, which was tart and citrusy. it was a little too sour for me at first, but the yuzu flavor was great. i actually really liked the kiwi popping boba, which added some sweetness to the drink and curbed the tartness. the kiwi popping boba did taste like kiwi, and it was so unique! - momo peach iced matcha [seasonal] (1/5): the worst drink i tried... there was so much peach jam that it tasted super sweet, and the jam didn't even have a strong peach flavor. the amount of jam also made the drink extremely goopy, even after mixing, and i couldn't taste the matcha at all. i didn't finish this drink the boba here was inconsistent - sometimes it was soft and chewy, and other times, it was on the hard end. for the drinks that came with a topping, they didn't let me sub out the topping with something else. i would've had to pay for an additional topping in order to change it. overall, i'm not really a big fan of kuma cafe, but there aren't that many options in san rafael. compared to oddcha, i think kuma cafe offers more unique asian flavors, like dragon fruit or yuzu. when i'm working near downtown, i'll still stop by to get my boba fix but will head somewhere else for lunch.

Came here to meet some family for a chat over a cup of coffee, and I ended up getting the white…read morechocolate mocha, and the ancho frittata from the display case.\ The white chocolate mocha was good, different than a store chain one, and very tasty. The frittata was warmed nicely, and served in a little box. It was a bit denser than I expected, but not in a bad way, just not as fluffy as I imagined. The egg texture was creamy. The taste was very nice. A nice visit for good food and a decent value. Oh yeah, and some family time!

I've got an addiction to milk tea and am always craving one. I had a long drive from Santa Rosa to…read moreSan Ramon, so I stopped by Teaspoon on the way. Although they had just opened, the place was very crowded! Unlike traditional bubble tea spots, they have a lot of preset menu items. There isn't as much customizing available, but it is still possible. My go to order is a matcha milk tea with egg pudding. At first, they said they didn't have any, but I saw some behind the toppings glass and they confirmed it was indeed egg pudding. Since the staff seemed new, they weren't sure how to put in the order, but were able to figure it out. It was really good! I thought everything tasted delicious and it was made to perfection! Very easy parking in this shopping area and they have a bathroom and nice seating options available.

I got a bitter melon, green tea, tea with lychee, Boba, and the green tea just tasted rather strong. The lady at the cashier was rather nice And I love their assortment of tea as well as different types/styles of drinks from frozen to only smoothie/fruit options as well as milk, tea and the fact that they have egg puffs as well as mochi waffles but the tea this particular time around was a bit too strong for me. I drink, maybe an inch around my green tea drink and then poured a bunch of water into water it down which made the drink taste better. They have a rather large seating area, but this particular store was maybe just too slow this Saturday afternoon. I thought it was cute that they were playing K-pop videos also.
