My friends and I ordered their toter tots, crispy chicken and chocolate bubble waffles with milk tea ice cream to share and I ordered their jasmine tea with cheese foam. Our order was ready a lot quicker than I had expected. The taiwanese crispy chicken was crispy, juicy and tender as they used chicken thighs for it. It was also well seasoned and tasted authentic. The tater tots were also perfectly fried as it was super crispy and they were sprinkled with the same seasoning as the chicken. The bubble waffle was the biggest surprise for me as I have never found a place that does it right (texture wise). This is the place! The waffle was crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside and the batter wasn't too floury as I have often found in other places. But that could also be because we ordered chocolate flavor so I should try their original next time. My only complaint is it didn't have enough chocolate taste for me. The milk tea ice cream, although wasn't the best I've had but it's decent and you can still taste the tea. My jasmine tea with cheese foam was fragrant and the cheese foam complimented the tea well and didn't make it overly filling. Overall, I really enjoyed everything I've ordered here and it's perfect for a mid day or late night snack and drink. I have been to other locations in the area and thought they're not as good as this one so I will have to come back to this location especially for their bubble waffles.

I've been here in the past for their onigiri, but I was surprised to see that they now have udon, snacks, and decorative pins for sale! I really like their onigiri, which you can get in either small or large sizes. My personal favorite is the ume onigiri, which is a tangy plum flavor. But if you want something with more protein, the salmon onigiris and the chicken onigiris are really good as well! The staff are welcoming and kind, and they were open to answer any questions we had. My husband and I shared 3 onigiris and an udon, and that was enough to fill us up! The shrimp tempura that came with the udon was delightfully crunchy and savory. All in all, I love how convenient this spot is for students, and I'll definitely be back to try more onigiri flavors!

Super cute new coffee spot on the west side. The barista was friendly. As you can see by the…read morephotos, the decor is adorable. I ordered a matcha latte. It tasted great but it was way too hot. I burned my tongue, that's how hot. I couldn't take another sip for a while until it cooled down, then it was really good. So just something to be aware of. The other disappointing thing was they have pastries on the menu so I went to order one but the barista said they actually didn't have any available. So I ended up having to go somewhere else for that. I'm still giving this business 4 stars though. I know they're new, and every new business deserves time to work out the kinks!

Stumbled across this place and I'm so glad I did! They're a coffee shop with pastries and boba drinks available. The shop is a little small with a little bit of bench seating and one table, but it works. I decided to go with an ube infused latte which was good. I didn't think the ube flavor was too strong but I did order another add shot of espresso which might've overpowered the ube flavor. Also, I really appreciated how the barista asked if our drinks were sweet enough before we left the shop. Amazing customer service!! I would stop by again for another drink if I'm in the area.

The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made for a great first impression! The portions are HUGE for the price, and everything we ordered was delicious. The Taiwanese popcorn chicken was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spices and was incredibly crispy! The pork chop fried rice was massive--you definitely get your money's worth. My favorite was the oyster pancake; they were so generous with the oysters, and it was packed with flavor. Overall, an awesome dining experience with great food, generous portions, and excellent service. I'll definitely be coming back! Hopefully they can open another location with a parking lot!

The Korean bacon was ok, but the rice needs work (definitely doesn't reheat well)- lots of rice. The pork chop was better in the past.
