It's just off Madison Ave near Southport. Photos showed a nice seating area so I gave it a shot. I ordered a Burmese tea and banana bread and both were great and were ready quickly. The tea was very sweet, but a nice treat. I loved all the plants decorating the nice and clean space. And for a fairly small shop, there is really a good variety and amount of seating.

This local coffee shop is, it seems, Burmese-owned. It has a gorgeous interior - I love the…read moreambiance with the lighting, furniture, and many plants! Variety of seating: lounge area, small tables, one large table, and high top tables. Good amount of outlets if you bring a laptop. Because it is Burmese, there are traditional coffee shop options (latte, etc) but also Burmese coffee! They have a baked goods case that was interesting - your avg coffee shop item like croissants and then some Asian cuisine items. They are very friendly. Right now they don't have WiFi but should by next week. I got a plain coffee and it was solid. I added creamer to it since it was a dark roast and I am a baby that only loves light roast Still it was a better dark roast than most. They almost brought the water and then the coffee to my table which is nice. I also love that they are open later than most locally owned coffee shops around here (until 6pm). I'd recommend that folks go! Give them some grace the first few weeks as they get up and running (ex: the WiFi issue just use your phone hotspot if that's an option for now).

There's a reason for the great reviews at Phi 36.....the service and food are extraordinary!…read more Hong, our host and server, greeted us on entering and immediately took our beverage orders. He was gracious, welcoming and attentive. There's an awesome personal vibe here, down to the wrapped chop sticks. The menu is a blend of Asian dishes, but specializes in Pho. I ordered the "Chicken Noodle Soup Pho" which is delicious, like a warm hug. The broth is light and flavorful, the chicken tender, the noodles, bean sprouts and cilantro so fresh. It was the best Pho I've had in Indiana. The large portion is enormous, I couldn't finish it! My husband had the Grilled Beef Banh Mi sandwich. If you've never had a Banh sandwich, you don't know what you're missing. The beef was tender, the bread toasty and so many great flavors. This locally operated cafe is cozy with ten small tables. They do a robust carry out and in house service. The place fills up at lunch time. There is plenty of parking in the strip mall lot. The single restroom is clean and tidy. I highly recommend! Easy 5 Stars!

Flavor wise the sandwich was good, I can't deny that. Maybe it was the fact it was takeout but the mix of size and necessity to build my banh mi was a knock overall.

I ate a sushi burrito in LA in like 2019, and then couldn't stop thinking about it for years…read more Little did I know, sushi burritos exist in Indy! My friend had been telling me about her favorite bubble tea spot for months, and when we finally went, I was so happy to see they also have custom poke and sushi burritos and delicious onigiri options. The inside is super cute and was very clean when we went. Service is quick and unfussy, so this would be a great option if you need to pick up a to go order, but it's also a nice spot to stop for a quick lunch break. It's cozy and quiet so could even be a good place to work or study if you're looking off the beaten path on Mass Ave. Aside from the onigiri, most of the food is totally custom and made to order, so you can really get whatever you want. You order on a paper menu like at a sushi restaurant, picking exactly what you like--and honestly, you can go wild here. For the base price of $11.50 (for burritos and bowls), you pick your base, protein, up to two sauces, and then add as many of the mix-ins and toppings as you want. A steal, imo! There are several ways to make this vegetarian (I got tofu), and it could be gluten free, too, if you're careful about sauces. I ordered my burrito and a peach black tea with aloe jelly. Now I can't stop dreaming of the tea, either. Will be back asap. This is better than LA!

I live so close but have never been. Now that I've tried it I keep wanting to go back! I got the…read morewhite peach tea with aloe jelly. It was amazing! I also got a one protein poke bowl. It was super fresh and filling! You order food by filling out a printed piece of paper at the center round table in the center of the restaurant. You check off what you'd like. If you just want a drink you can order at the counter. Service was quick! I liked the atmosphere! It felt cozy and intimate. There's not a whole lot of seating, but the restaurant is also on the smaller side. Everything is packaged to be able to take to go though!

One Friday morning, I wanted tea, so I googled 'tea near me,' and this was one of the spots that…read morepopped up. I was in the mood for hot tea, but that all changed when I walked in. They are nestled in a plaza in Brownsburg, and I didn't get good vibes when I pulled up, but that quickly changed. To my surprise, I walked into the cutest establishment filled with all sorts of pastries and boba tea drinks. I informed Lizzy that it was my first time at the shop, and she was as excited as I was and helped me select the perfect drink concoction and pastry. If I remember correctly, Lizzy only works on Fridays, and she is very helpful. I ended up getting two drinks instead of one and added a pumpkin cheesecake slice. My first drink was a pumpkin chai milk tea, and my second drink was a red guava passion popping mix. They were both good, but my passion drink was outstandingly delicious. The pumpkin cheesecake slice was perfect because it was lightly sweet and creamy! Overall, this was a 10/10 for me, and I will be back to see Lizzy and try a new drink concoction. Check it out, y'all!

I will say that the staff was friendly and the donuts certainly made up for the drink. It was a nearly perfect texture on the donuts and not too sweet.

It is dangerous how close I live to Mochi Munchi as I go there way too much. But I can't help it--…read moretheir mochi donuts are just too good! Really, honestly some of the best I've had. A perfect blend of chewy, soft, and not too sweet. Close to monument circle/right downtown so makes it easy to grab and go (but they do have indoor seating too!). 10/10 would recommend.

I've been to Mochinut twice now and have enjoyed it both times. It's very clean and the employees…read moreare kind and helpful. Both times they have given me drink advice when I asked them a ton of questions! I've now sampled about 10 flavors of donuts and I've liked all of them. Mochi donuts have a unique flavor/texture, but I like it. Each time I've had the mango tea and love it. I prefer it without the boba, but today I added milk foam and really like that combination. It is a bit pricey, but it's something different every now and then when we are on that side of town.

So I whipped out my trusty sidekick: GOOGLE! (Cue superhero theme music.) I asked Google to find me drinks nearby, and, as always, it came through like the magical genie it is. Five minutes later, I was pulling up to Tiger Sugar, hydration hero, reporting for duty! When I arrived, I scored a parking spot right in front, already winning! Only one person stood between me and my thirst, but let's be real: I'm so indecisive, I probably gave them time to finish their order and contemplate the meaning of life. I circled that menu like a vulture with commitment issues, but thankfully, the super-friendly lady behind the counter came to my rescue and steered me toward the passion fruit black tea. One sip, and it was a full-blown dance party in my mouth. I'm talking conga lines, disco balls, the works! This drink checked every box, though it was a bit on the sweet side, so next time I'll dial it down a notch. Not that I'm adventurous, I'm absolutely ordering the same thing on my next visit. Change is scary, okay? Go check them out. It's worth the drive to the Greenwood area.

Yes it was busy but they kept the line moving. It's a really nice size inside, but you do have to find parking on the streets. I have visited a few times and they have been consistent with the drinks and service. The bathrooms were clean the two different times I've used them. I have three sisters so we have tried all sorts of their drinks and they are so good!! The Hawaiian short ribs were so good, everything on the Hawaiian menu is good. Had some make your own bowls in the past from a different location and the options are endless! Will be back, 10/10

If you are using cash, go to the counter, electronic pay or plastic, use the kiosk it's much easier and faster. The large boba is huge, get that if you trying to overload on boba and drinks. The watermelon Sago was a treat for sure, very refreshing and light , perfect for a hot summer day . I was impressed with their drinks, we Californians are spoiled with options when it comes to these drinks and there weren't too many options here in Indy I looked up . Tbe dining area was kinda warm when I went in but I took our drinks to go. Plenty of room for a big group if you decide to chill out there. Great spot for tea and milk.
