It looks like a hole in the wall (read: dumpy) so I figured the food must be good! Was the food good? It was alright. My bf enjoyed the shrimp dumplings, but I didn't love the earthy/musty notes. We also got the short rib beef, and the meat was quite tender and tasty. BUT for a place advertised as "cheap eats" with "generous portions" this $19 dish with five (yes I counted) bite sized pieces in the portion (served with rice and veg) was underwhelming in size. This was a case of over promise and under deliver.

I recently tried Clover Smoothie and Tea, and honestly, I really liked it. The place was clean and…read morehad a chill, relaxed vibe, which made it a nice spot to just stop in and grab something refreshing. I ordered a matcha latte and the original açaí bowl. The matcha latte was really smooth and not too sweet, which I liked. Sometimes matcha can taste kind of bitter, but this one was balanced and tasted fresh. It was light and easy to drink, not too heavy. The açaí bowl was probably my favorite. The base was thick and flavorful, not watery at all. The fruit on top tasted fresh and sweet, and the granola added a nice crunch that made everything come together. It felt filling but still healthy, which is exactly what I wanted. The staff were friendly, and my order came out pretty fast, so that was a plus. Overall, everything felt well-made and worth the price. I'd definitely go back again and would recommend it if you're looking for something fresh, healthy, and actually tasty.

There is bar seating as well as a variety of tables and chairs, making this place ideal for a meet up. I ordered the iced Organic Matcha Milky Strawberry with almond milk, and regular sugar. One thing I liked about these tablets is that it did have some recommended suggestions of what the best milk and sugar level would be for each drink. I found this drink was a little boring and wish I had ordered a topping like cheese foam in addition to it, but was served in a cute plastic mason jar looking cup. My friend got the Creamy Real Taro Paste Bobo with organic oat milk, milk tea and light ice. I had also selected the option to sample the Taro, but sadly was not offered any. This drink was much more exciting and I really enjoyed the unique flavors and texture when I got to try several sips of it. Again, one thing that really stood out was the variety of selections one could make when customizing their drink. This place looks like it has rotating/seasonal options and an interesting food menu as well and so I do plan on returning!

I ordered a Grilled Pork Banh Mi with medium spicy, and sat in the AC'd store while they prepared my food. Got my hot bag, then went on my way towards Prospect Park. Due to unforeseen events, I ate my Banh Mi about 2 hours later, while it was still warm enough, this banh mi was still absolutely delicious. The sandwich has a slight kick (pretty strong for medium), but it was definitely not overwhelming. Pickled veggies are fresh, crispy, and not overpowering either. The meat was delicious!!! Grilled perfectly, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Bun is also delicious. I don't know what to say, didn't try their pho or boba, but their banh mi is worth a visit, and a return visit. I was super happy that this place didn't opt for the usual mayo bland dressing that most Viet places use, but they kept their sandwich juicy yet not heavy. Great food.

I've been to the three locations, assuming they're the same owners. It was clean and cool (A/C) when I arrived. I placed my order at the counter and picked it up when ready. They'll call your number. I ordered the Combo which was one Garden and one Summer (with Shrimp). In no time it was ready. I just had Garden Rolls last week at a neighboring competitor (a new spot) which turned out to be disappointing (read my review). Today's rolls were what they're supposed to be: the rice paper was thin and tender to the bite. The Garden Roll included cucumbers and mint (shredded carrots absent. Or maybe it's supposed to be without?) and the Summer roll lined up the shrimp which was visible through the rice paper. Both were delicious. Important key to these rolls is the peanut dipping sauce. Theirs was thick enough but with the ability to dip those yummy rolls with every bite. Satisfied customer and will return.

My quest for more bubble tea attain continues which a Yelp search takes my travels to Brooklyn…read more This business is very accessible via MTA NYC Transit A, C, R trains at Jay Street Metrotech station in Brooklyn, NYC. Willoughby Street has been bombarded with bubble tea businesses in recent years. Chihiro Tea is a very quaint little adorable tea shop with a Shiba theme.

The grass jelly was very minimal for paucity - total dismay. The entire drink was embedded with lime, lime pulp and fresh pieces of peach fruit. I wanted the supporting cast to be grass jelly and the lead to be Jasmine green tea, but this lime and heavy lime pulp were aggravating annoyance that stole the spotlight. I decribe the amount of herbal jelly topping to be scant, conveying insufficiency or minimalism. There were absolutely nothing alleged special of this peach sauce. I have chosen my default 30% sugar which highly counteracted with the lime. The lime and lime pulp were very strong. My drink tasted intensely sour, albeit refreshing. A lime drink is not my desideratum. Lime is not my interest. The woman cashier/ server Mattie was attentive, friendly welcoming who served with warm hospitality and patience for customer service. She permitted me to take a lot of photos for this review without any complaints as I could not resist this very cute adorable Shiba theme. If I could suggest to the owner for change of this drink ingredients either to remove of this lime and lime pulp, or significantly decreased the amount inputted. If I could, I could. For $0.75 as a paid topping it is my prerogative to have one quarter quantity of the drink size. The full ice melted entirely, but my drink sustained its coolness and was still chilled during my long-haul subway ride home. Disappointedly, there are no takeout drink menus.

We also each got our own Black Sugar Milk Tea ($5 each). The drink was standard, but pretty tiny. As for the food, the bing was pretty solid but messy to eat as it's held together with a thin scallion pancake with egg. This is a classic Taiwanese item to get for sure. I also enjoyed the beef noodle soup, but honestly pretty standard as well. While I'm glad I got to try this spot out, I don't think it stood out enough to me to come back. Plus, the price point is on the higher end being in Cobble Hill too.

I sadly didn't see anything appealing but I really wanted to try something so I got a bunch of onigiris, mostly shrimp tempura, eel avocado, and pork belly. I really regret buying them as the onigiris without any sauce like tempura and pork belly immediately fell apart. The wrapping didn't unravel the way it usually does and the rice doesn't stick together like it usually does either. Either way they seemed reallllly un fresh like more than days old. Even when I buy onigiris and save them for 2 days later they never come out looking like this. So surprised at this poor execution. Taste wasn't any better either for any of the onigiri I bought. Microwaving it helped it be better in terms of the rice not being as hard but still really hard. I would not get this again or recommend getting this. The rest of the shop seemed fine though, there were sales and samples of good assortment of goodies!
