We were getting delivery from a nearby restaurant and since some of the dishes were spicy I wanted…read moreto get something sweet to balance it out. Sweet Sip definitely met our expectations that day. I got the dark and stormy milk tea which came with honey boba. It was interesting to see that you could add free toppings to your milk tea which you rarely see elsewhere. I added the passion fruit jelly and pudding. Unfortunately there were no options in the delivery app to adjust for sweetness or ice so we got the drink as is. It was very well made but was sweeter than I'd prefer (my sweetness level is 70%). However because our accompanying dinner was spicier than expected, the sweetness of the drink actually helped us! I also ordered the mochi eggpuff with pandan flavor. I'm not sure if I could taste the pandan but the eggpuff was delicious. Again, sweeter than I'd typically like but the texture was great - crunchy outside with a chewy mochi filling. We had leftovers and it heated up excellently the next day in our simple toaster oven. This was intended to be a fun add-on to our meal and turned out to be quite essential - glad we tried them out!

It wasn't crunchy because of how dense it was. Would not recommend. On the plus side, the inside of the store was really clean and cute! It looked like their popular items were the smoothies and drinks so maybe those are better dessert options. The workers are really nice, too.

There were some people waiting for their orders and one party in front of us in line at the time. While it wasn't busy, it took a decent amount of time for us to order and receive our order. We ended up getting the Smashed Avocado Che and while it was a bit pricey, I enjoyed the option of being able to switch out a topping for a different one for no additional charge. In addition, I liked the dessert itself and the texture of the ice was light and ground up enough where it didn't feel like I was eating a whole ice cube. However, the service was just a little strange and quiet that night yet the lady at the register was a bit rude by staring us down when the option for tip came up on the register screen and when asking for napkins, she merely gave us a singular napkin.

It took about 10 minutes for them to make the matcha, and five minutes later they informed me that they were out of black tea -- which is surprising since it's the most common tea base at most boba shops. I changed the drink to an Oolong milk tea, and it still took an additional 10 minutes to receive all three drinks. What was even more frustrating is that although I arrived first, customers who came 10 minutes after me received their drinks before I did. I will not be returning.

They have both bubble tea and frozen yogurt with plenty of topping choices. My favorite flavors are the mango, pineapple, and coconut. I love the fresh fruit and popping boba and mochi for the toppings. As with many froyo spots they charge by weight so depending on how much you loaded up would be the cost. I believe they also had 2 different size containers. In the past I remember my total being between $10-$15 so it can definitely add up! The owners also seem nice I think they tried offering a free milk tea that was made as a test for me and my friends that were hanging out in the space. Hopefully once the space is done with renovation they will be back.

Self service - you grab a plastic glove and cup, walk to the end of the shop, and start pulling down the handles to dispense yogurt. Some sample flavors are mango, vanilla , cookie and cream, and chocolate (want a mix of vanilla and chocolate? Then use the middle handle between vanilla and chocolate). After you're done with yogurt, move on to toppings (boba, candies, etc). Remember! It's weigh and pay system. My small portion came out to be exactly $6. Huge place but it's dark. Restroom in the back.

Love going to Ba Le in Dorchester, for a quick bite! They…read moredon't have dine-in, just take-out. Love the variety they offer here. They're popular for their banh mi sandwiches & drinks. I enjoy getting their cold cut banh mi with extra butter and pate! I like that their baguettes are not too thick and are quite flaky. The bread to filling ratio is perfect each bite. Every time I visit, I always get a cold cut banh mi, nem, and sugarcane juice or an iced coffee. Super quick service. The line can seem daunting at times, especially in the early morning or lunch time but I promise it does move fast!

Two cups of fresh sugarcane and I'm good to go! Prices go up, as cost of goods go up. Still a bargain compared to other sandwiches you get for more money! Filling is always generous, you want extra butter pate? Just say so yes it cost a little more but they don't just give u a tiny bit, they smack it on your sub. The tall handsome guy at the register is always cool as hell! We also get jerky and nem with the pepper pretty frequently. Nice snack when you got class or work. I've gone out and tried so many other people's favorites because they wanted to hate on BaLe, and honest opinion lol, those other places don't even come close. They have long lines here during lunch rush or morning rush, but it moves. The bread is fresh every day. I'll just stick to my day 1. Thanks. But ayyyeee bring in more nem nuong for my custom sub haha jk.

For a late lunch, I stopped by Pho 2000. On a Wednesday at 2 p.m., it was empty. I put in my order…read morefor spring rolls ($4.50) and bun bo hue ($13.95). The spring rolls arrived within 5 minutes--two rolls, cut in half. The rice paper was springy enough, the sesame sauce wasn't watery, and the shrimp wasn't overcooked or old. I don't need to ask for much else at a neighborhood pho joint. The bun bo hue arrived a bit after I finished the spring rolls. The noodles were springy, the broth piping hot so the bean sprouts wouldn't sap too much heat, and the portion size was decent. I enjoyed all the beef tendon, but it was missing the pork blood and the funkiness of chili crisp that usually defines bun bo hue. The bun bo hue itself is a miss by its own definition, but still a solid beef noodle soup. That's the primary reason for 3* instead of 4*. Not a bad place though, especially for the price point. I'd come back.

Pho Le Restaurant is a Vietnamese restaurant in Dorchester's Little Saigon area that focuses on…read moretraditional Vietnamese dishes with a large menu covering everything from pho to noodles, rice dishes, and specialty items. We walked into a classic neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant with a straightforward, comfortable setup that makes it a reliable spot for a casual meal. The interior is modest and functional, the kind of place where the focus stays on the food rather than the decor, and the steady flow of regulars reflects its reputation as a local staple for authentic Vietnamese cooking. The pho is the main reason we would return. The broth has the kind of deep, comforting flavor that comes from slow simmering, and the combination of fresh herbs, tender meat, and well-cooked noodles makes each bowl feel complete. We also appreciated that the menu goes beyond pho, with dishes like bún bò Huế, vermicelli noodles, bánh xèo, and other Vietnamese specialties that give more variety depending on what you are craving. The bún bò Huế had a bold, spicy broth with a depth that stood out from the lighter pho, and the vermicelli bowls were fresh and well balanced, with grilled meats and pickled vegetables adding layers of texture and flavor. Some of the more specialty dishes stand out because they offer flavors that are harder to find at more general Vietnamese restaurants, giving you a reason to explore beyond the familiar. Service was friendly and the restaurant had a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere. Parking and the busy area can be something to consider during peak times, but the overall experience feels casual and approachable. The restaurant is the type of place where you can come for a quick meal or bring a group and order several dishes to share, and the portions are generous enough that sharing works well across the table. Pho Le is a solid choice for Vietnamese food in the Boston area. The variety, comforting dishes, and traditional flavors make it a reliable spot, especially for pho and other classic Vietnamese favorites. It delivers a meal that feels both familiar and satisfying, the kind of dependable neighborhood stop that keeps people coming back for a warm, authentic bowl of soup or a more substantial Vietnamese meal.
