I find that my drink is always good when the owner is working and she's friendly. Then other times when the owner isn't there, it seems like the workers don't want to be there and my drink comes out incorrect and then it's awkward to ask for them to fix it. Aside from inconsistency, I like how they have stamp cards so you get a free drink after 10 I believe. After 10-20 visits, I gathered getting their drinks less sweet is best. Their jasmine tea is perfect and refreshing if you like jasmine green tea. Their Thai tea lacks flavors and I think needs to be seeped longer.

First time visiting this location. I stopped in hoping to find a good boba spot based on the name…read more When I walked in, I expected to see a full menu, but although there was a screen, only half of it was working. Thankfully, I had the menu on my phone, which made ordering possible. The young lady who took our order was kind and pleasant, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the drinks themselves were very underwhelming. There was little to no flavor--honestly, if I were blindfolded, I wouldn't have been able to tell what I was drinking. I've had much better boba elsewhere, but at least I gave this place a try.

These guys are a local business so I don't want to give them a difficult time just feedback. The…read moreIce cream taco is a great concept. It lacked a bit on flavor unfortunately. There is barely any seating and I almost missed the place coming in as it almost looks completely shut down. The menu is also simple in terms of what to order. Doesn't have to be more items just more flavors of drinks possibly? The restaurant wasn't very appealing.

They were kind enough to split the ramen for us! Service was spot on for our entire group. Food was pretty decent, which was a pleasant surprise! I only wished the temperature of the ramen was hot! It was a room temperature broth and really did bring the quality down. Otherwise, portions and taste was pretty good. Come try this spot for casual lunch or dinner options!

Oh man, those egg rolls and the sauce were on point. My son got a mojito sake and we had Jasmine tea. Dylan let us know that they were tea bags, which we appreciated. The mango madness roll and the Hokkaido roll were both pretty fabulous. We very much enjoyed our lunch and our service was exceptional. I have to wonder why they only have a 4 star rating. Perhaps they had to work the "new restaurant" kinks out. Definitely give them a try.

Definitely worth a try. I discovered today their Cassia Black Tea with Cream (bubble milk tea) is…read moreone of my favorite drinks. The honey tea latte was great too, it was light and refreshing. The drinks took about 15 minutes to come out, which is perfectly okay, because they actually brew the tea instead of using a pre-made powder mix like most boba shops.

We've been here a couple of times now and have enjoyed each visit. I go with my almost 10 year old…read moreson. He always enjoys the cookies and cream with boba, and I've tried the taro milk tea with boba, and the taro coconut milk tea with boba. The recommended 75% sugar is perfect not intensely sweet but not too plain. We are always impressed with the speed of service as it's usually only one person working. My son always says, "I'm still amazed how one man can be faster than 5 at that other place we've been to." We usually pick up to go but have enjoyed our drinks there as well. The place is so nice and picture friendly with boba themed signs on each wall. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

The employee working was super friendly and welcoming, even that close to closing time. I ordered the Jasmine Green Milk Tea and my sister got the Thai Iced Tea which both were absolutely delicious. The boba was perfect: firm with the right amount of chew, not mushy or overly hard. My Jasmine Green Milk Tea (half sweet, less ice) was balanced perfectly. You can really taste the jasmine and it has that distinct floral flavor that stands out in the best way. The Thai Milk Tea was also amazing, rich and flavorful without being overpowering. Overall, great drinks, great service, and great quality even right before closing. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to!

It's a cute location. There's plenty of parking outside. There's a good mount of seating available inside too. They have a bunch of options from milk tea to smoothies.
