Parking is a pain though, it's in the middle of Vietnam town which is always packed. I ordered the jasmine milk tea with jelly and it was good the tea had a nice floral flavor, tasted fresh, though I would prefer it to be more sweet. The jelly was a great add-on too. I can tell why this place is popular! I want to try the matcha einspinnar next because I heard that was popular. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm in the area!

Soyful Desserts is a hole-in-the wall shop offering a variety of silken soy pudding drinks with…read moreassorted toppings in the heart of San Jose's Little Saigon neighborhood. If you're looking for a Vietnamese refresher that contains all the toppings your heart could wish for, go lift your spirits at Soyful Desserts! I had to drive up and down the side of the mall to locate Soyful Desserts (the sign was small!), and parking was tight. When I got to the window, it was like being at a walk-up café. A couple of tables and chairs were set out for folks to sit and enjoy their drinks, and a gentle breeze blew down the walk. I ordered the #8 Combination soy pudding drink and waited while the lady made the drink for me. She handed the drink to me with a smile, and I told her that it was beautifully made. Indeed, the drink was beautiful to look at. Spoonfuls and spoonfuls of soy tofu mixed with sweet syrup and Japanese pudding. Layered on top was the green pandan jelly, gelled basil seed, grass jelly, and red bean, all topped with shaved ice. I took my first sip. The soft silken tofu was the main event, very cool and balanced by the creamy pudding and sweet syrup. I lifted my straw higher to pull in more toppings, and the sweet floral pandan landed on my tongue. The grass jelly followed after, tender and al dente. Gelled basil seeds slid past, and I enjoyed their soft crunch between my teeth. The red bean was soft and starchy, with a hint of sweetness that rounded out the cast of toppings. Not too sweet, with a variety of flavors and textures to delight the tongue, my combination drink from Soyful Desserts was a cup of wonder. I found that Soyful Desserts creates joyful desserts, and mine definitely warmed my heart. When I'm craving soy tofu drinks again, I'll be back for more.

It makes me want to come back for more, specifically their BBQ Tater Tots. (I was pretty surprised that there wasn't much hype on here, Yelp. Along with there not being an option for it on DoorDash, so I really hope & wish that they could add it through online ordering). But besides that, their popcorn chicken & potstickers are delicious too! (They should definitely add the potstickers as an option on DoorDash as well! ) The drinks are very yummy too! You're able to adjust your sweetness level (30%, 60% and 100%), along with adjusting your ice levels (regular, less or none - with no additional charge). Their toppings are soft & easy to chew, really love their grass jelly topping here~ For my DoorDash experience, I have ordered drinks from here before, and as mentioned earlier, there was no option for their BBQ Tater Tots, which would have been nice to have. However, I would love to thank the staff there because I selected their Jalapeño Cheese Curly Fries before writing in the notes about wanting the Tots instead, along with paying additional bacon (just in case of the price difference), and they were very generous enough to call me immediately to confirm my choices. It was very efficient & it was very sweet of them to go out of their way to make sure.

Yum!! I love fresh sugarcane juice, and I think this is the best spot for it. You can tell the…read morejuice is very fresh since they make it on the spot. My favorite is the kumquat sugarcane juice. The kumquat adds a bright, refreshing note that keeps it from being overly sweet with just a hint of sourness. We also tried the pure sugarcane juice to compare, and it was delicious too, though definitely much sweeter on its own. It does cost a bit more to get it without ice, but we opted for that since I cannot finish it in one sitting and it keeps better in the fridge this way. This spot is located inside a large food mall with plenty of other shops. Easy to grab and go, or there are tables available if you want to enjoy your drink there!

This is honestly one of my fave spots for nước mía (sugarcane juice) in San Jose. It's located…read moreinside the food court at Grand Century Mall. Ninh Kieu is pretty well-known for their fresh pressed sugarcane juice (made when you order!!) and also got a bunch of specialty healthy juice combos. I went on a Saturday around lunch time and it wasn't too busy, waited like 5 mins for two drinks. My all-time go-to is the OG sugarcane juice with kumquat... soooo refreshing, sweet with that little citrus kick, just hits every time. I also brought my bestie with me and it was her first time trying sugarcane juice ever, and she loves strawberry so I got her that flavor... tell me why she got OBSESSED. She literally finished the whole thing in 30 mins and was still talking about it 2 days later saying she was craving it again lol. Price is pretty average compared to other spots, nothing crazy, but the quality is always consistent and fresh which I appreciate.

They have a variety of toppings that you can choose from or you can do their full toppings which includes a little bit of everything. I've tried multiple drinks before but my favorite has to be the green Thai tea. It's super creamy and strong as well. They also have a variety of snacks that look super delicious but I haven't tried just yet. The customer service here is also so amazing. They're super patient with everyone that comes in and quick to support if you need any help or adjustments.

I will say that the drinks are on the pricier side; everything her ranges from 6 to 8 dollars, even for the smaller-sizd drinks. This spot is a bit small, but it is well-lit and comfortable to sit in. It's clean and stylish inside, and orders are primarily taken through a standing tablet. It's relatively easy to find parking, even though the lot is somewhat busy, especially right after work. The drinks come out pretty quickly and taste really good, though even their "less sweet" options tend to err on the side of being too sweet. I am usually a bit suspect of matcha or hojicha served by places that mostly serve other boba drinks, but I have tried both the matcha and hojicha here, and I liked both. They don't serve food or snacks, which I don't mind! I would absolutely recommend this spot to others; it's a nice experience and their drinks (at least the ones I've tried) are solid.

The staff was very friendly, and the drinks came out in a timely manner. The only negative thing I noticed was that they charge extra for whole milk, but not for oat milk or lactose-free milk.

Overall, I still highly recommend trying this place out.
