    25 minutes after they're supposed to be open and the door was locked and no one inside

    This is the second time I come after 11AM which is the time they're supposed to open, just to see that they're closed. The first time I came one of the Baskin Robin employees had to cover because we walked inside since the door was locked and the worker said they wouldn't be open until 12PM. If the workers can't wake up early and open the store on time they should change their hours online.

    Was stoked to try out this boba spot in the AV. Coming inside, it's takeout style: walk in, order from kiosk, and staff make your order or answer any questions you have. Reccommended sugar and ice levels at the kiosks are automatically 50%. I put 30%, yet it still tastes very sweet and sugary. There's options to make it creamy or extra creamy, and extra creamy just means an extra scoop of the powder they use. I chose the taro milk tea (uncaffeinated) and I was very disappointed at how it tasted. My brother got the matcha strawberry drink, 30% sweet. He was also very disappointed and felt it tasted too sweet. Sadly, these $7 average drinks (no small size) both missed and tasted disappointing.. hopefully just a bad worker..

    I order all drinks 50% sugar and 50% ice. I might need more ice with the Antelope Valley as it is. The staff were super friendly and mentioned that during the soft opening the hours are 12pm (noon) to 6pm! Very responsive and when I forgot how much sugar I usually get, the young gentleman suggest 50%! I then recalled I go 50/50 when I used to always frequent one of the Gong Cha in Irvine. I might need to go 30% cause I might have gotten used to lot less sugar since I moved up here. Thanks for posting about this on the AV Restaurant Support FB group! Really good boba (pearl) flavor as well.

    My new favorite boba place. The lady at the counter is very nice and the place is clean. The drinks are delicious

    My sister-in-law had a pretty disappointing experience at this location today. In a community like…read morethe Antelope Valley, local support really matters, so it's always surprising when a business doesn't seem to value the people who keep it running. Apparently taking a moment to decide what you'd like to order is considered an inconvenience here. The cashier made a gesture implying she needed to hurry up, which felt unnecessarily dismissive especially when someone is simply trying to decide how they'd like to spend their hard-earned money. It's a shame, because local businesses thrive on positive interactions with their customers. Experiences like this make it much easier to understand why so many other coffee spots are opening throughout the AV and gaining loyal support. Needless to say, my family and I will be taking our coffee runs elsewhere moving forward. There are plenty of places in the AV that manage to serve great coffee and treat their customers with courtesy. San Fernando Coffee Co. OVER Trio Coffee House any day of the week.

    Absolutely deserving 5 star!…read more Grey and cold Tuesday afternoon so we decided to go in an get some hot ramen to warm up. And did we get lucky: tasty and fresh food, very good service and great prices. Our server brought our starter (spicy edamame) quite quickly and asked if we needed anything else besides the chopsticks provided (really nice touch, but we can handle them). Tonkotsu Miso and Spicy Chicken were our mains: truly tasty, deep well-developed flavors (make sure to add some extra toppings and ask for spicy paste). Thai thee's were great as well, not too much sugar but if you have a real sweet tooth, just ask for it! We will be back!

    Last night I ordered takeout from Luv Ramen and BBQ in Palmdale, and it truly impressed me…read more I ordered the Tonkotsu Black, and the bowl was well balanced and rich without feeling too heavy. The broth had depth and a smooth finish that made each bite enjoyable. It tasted like it had been carefully prepared and not rushed. The pork was tender and flavorful. It was seasoned throughout and had a soft texture that paired well with the broth. The egg stood out to me. It had its own distinct flavor and was not simply carrying the broth's seasoning. The texture was just right and it blended beautifully with the rest of the bowl. The spicy garlic edamame was excellent. The seasoning was evenly distributed, and the garlic and spice were balanced. It is honestly the best edamame seasoning I have had so far. The vegetable egg rolls were crisp and not greasy, which I appreciated. You could actually taste the filling instead of oil. What made this even better was that it was takeout. Everything was packaged carefully and arrived hot. The broth was secure, nothing spilled, and the quality held up perfectly during delivery. We usually dine at Ramen Boy, but this meal has definitely shifted my perspective. Luv Ramen delivered a strong experience from start to finish, even as takeout.

    BOGO Deals & Ube Delights!…read more I keep coming back to this location for their great deals ~ either BOGO or $3 handcrafted drinks. Totally worth it! My go-to orders are the Ice Blended Dark Chocolate and Hot Mocha. So far, they have been consistently good. Recently, I tried the Ice Blended Ube Coconut Affogato from their Ube Sensation series ~ loved it! The flavors blend really well. Just a heads up: when they are running promos, it gets busy. I've waited over 30 minutes for my order during peak times, and they are sometimes short-staffed. The café is on the smaller side but a decent place to work ~ there are plugs available for laptops and devices. Parking is usually not an issue, and I appreciate the gender-neutral restrooms, which are generally clean.

When i walked in, the line was already a little long which wasn't an issue but then after 10 mins in line, i noticed the guy at the counter taking orders seemed to be a little slow in his pace. When it was finally my turn to order; I ordered an horchata latte and a turkey pesto sandwich. The guy entered my order incorrectly multiple times. I corrected him 3 times. He kept putting in -matcha, i never ordered that, then he entered-protein latte- corrected him again. Not sure if he was new or just nervous but he kept apologizing and I was still very patient with him. I paid and proceeded to the waiting area. I got my sandwich first but my drink took forever!!! Not only did the barista who placed the drink on the counter did not call my name; But there was absolutely no label on the cup- Which caused a-lot of confusion while waiting. I kept checking to see if my order was ready but nobody said anything. I was standing there for 30 mins waiting...,until the same guy that i placed the order with called my name and said- "hey, not sure how long the drink has been sitting there but you can try it and let me know"... i was extremely irritated because it shows just plain incompetence. I grabbed the drink and left. When i got in the car; i tried the drink and it tasted like syrup water... extremely sugary, sweet garbage. This was a complete waste of time and money and they need to work on a better workflow. This place is chaotic. First and last time I will go here.

After finishing our drink, she noticed she had a little extra and instead of wasting it, she kindly gave my daughter a small cup of her own. That completely made my daughter's night and made her so happy. We thanked her and told her how sweet that was. She was warm, thoughtful, and genuinely went above and beyond. Service like that is exactly what keeps customers coming back, and I truly hope we get to see her again. And if you happen to read this review, I just want you to know my daughter was so thankful for the drink you gave her. Your kindness truly meant a lot to her.

I was seeking honesty from the beginning, not a fake apology at the end. I hope future interactions are more transparent and accurate for other customers. She needs to be retrained and she needs to take accountability. SMH! Update: I met the store manager, Karen. She was super nice, very friendly, and attentive to my concerns about my review. She mentioned that the staff is fully trained on how to make an Arnold Palmer. She also compensated me with a drink and a burrito, and I'm very thankful.
