    I tried the coconut milk tea with boba and the takoyaki from this place. I've had my fair share of boba, and I would say that this place is okay. The tea itself was really good - very creamy and coconut-flavored but not much tea flavor. The boba itself wasn't the best, but I think I went at an awkward time. This place would be a good place to sit down and study or even sit down to catch up with a friend. They also had a variety of asian food like bento boxes that seemed great and I will be back to try these! The takoyaki from this place had a very generous portion of red bean filling. It was a tad bit oily- I think they deep fry it-- but had a mochi chewy like texture. It was very filling. I ate it after a 20 minute drive, so it wasn't fresh. I'm sure it would have been amazing if it was fresh. It seem like a local business so I will come back to support them! I would give them a try if you are in the area.

    My sister always says this place is good so I decided to try it out today and lemme tell you the food was amazing and the service was great friendly people and the place was very clean I enjoyed it will be going back to try other things.

    Was really surprised with this place. The food was very delicious and so were the boba drinks. Will definitely be back to try different menu items. Also pleasantly surprised at how many items were available on the menu. The servers are nice and quick. The inside sometimes gets busy but not too bad.

    We stopped for lunch & it wasn't too busy. Beautiful wall decor & very clean. I ordered the salmon teriyaki bento box & he had the chicken teriyaki bento box. We had different sides so we could share. The teriyaki sauce was very tasty and they both had generous servings. They also have a Chinese menu

    Strawberry Milk Tea and Tapioca Boba

    Tried the Hoki chicken bowl and a strawberry milk tea with tapioca boba. Great tasting and excellent customer service. Friendly staff.

    Stopped by Hoki Bento Boba cafe, and I think I found my new favorite lunch spot! They had a wide selection of bento boxes and I opted for the salmon box. The salmon was perfectly cooked and so delicious. The portion of rice and salmon was great for a lunch meal. The cashier was kind enough to explain the menu for me and even offered me Boba. They had indoor seating, but I opted for a to-go order. Overall, I can't wait to come back!

    Came here with my kids for dinner and we were amazed at everything. The food, the atmosphere, the staff! We will definitely be coming back and trying more of the delicious food. We all got Thai Tea Boba drinks and they have water available which was ice cold and delicious. Very clean, fast service which was great!

    The food here was delicious! It is very nice, clean, and simple decor. The service was always great. As our food was done, each time was brought out nice and hot. I tried the salmon bento box which was a special that included a 20 oz. Drink. We also had the combo fried rice and hoki soup noodle and a mango milk tea boba drink. I would definitely recommend this place!

    Really great food service and ambience. I definitely will be coming again. I really liked the kind hostess, who is very accommodating with my order and moreover, the vibes of the place is super chill and relax I can't wait to come back.

    Hoki shrimp bento

    Don't second guess bc this place has just a few reviews. Teriyaki chicken, beef, shrimp...everything we have ordered from here is solid. Kid approved too.

    OMG I cannot say enough good things about this place! We were in San Antonio for a conference and…read morewanted to get out of the hotel for a dinner. Firstly, we had trouble getting an uber at first and when I called the staff was very friendly and were able to hold the table a little longer which I appreciated. The menu is a mix of Asian Fusion small plates and I would have loved to have had more of a sampling of the menu but it wasn't that large of a party. The cocktails were not too sweet and perfectly balanced. The Fist of Fury was so refreshing and the Yuzu margarita was delightful! The plates come when they are ready and I have to say the food came really quick! All of it was fantastic! Surprisingly the shredded vegetable salad was amazing and one of my favorite dishes! The tamarind glaze on the Chicken Karaage was not overpowering and so tasty. The service was amazing and the vibes of the restaurant were a lot of fun. The bathrooms were down the stairs and there was a little bar off to the side. Would definitely go back! I couldn't stop talking about it the next day to anyone that would listen.

    Great food, although the salmon was not as fresh as I'd hoped... Appetizers were excellent... Fast…read moredelivery... However, the hostess was so focused on keeping nine empty tables for reservations yet we finished our dinner by the time those guests arrived and she put us next to the AC vent where it was extra hot with the outdoors of 90°F... That is, don't go if you don't have reservations.

We ordered 2 cocktails, a lemonade and a mocktail - that took 15 minutes longer than everyone else so the toast to the grad who ordered it was delayed as appetizers came out before her drink Timing was also way off - we were asked what appetizers we wanted shortly after being seated and when we did order and told them we would start with the smaller bites and order the mains for later - everything came out at the same time except for one dish that was way later than everything else So before food let's talk service - it was a special graduation meal and though the food was good - the service is enough to make me not want to go back. The server was just socially awkward, was not able to converse and seemed to struggle with every aspect of the role! We spent over 20 minutes trying to flag her - then anyone down- just to order a soda as the mocktail was not good! We wanted second drinks but as there was no service to be found - we gave up. Dishes were dumped on the table by whoever brought them as we then sat with dirty / empty dishes throughout the meal except for the one or two we gave back and the one with food in it that was taken! Things got weird when we asked to bag up two dishes when the server seemed to really get confused and had to take time for her process and ignored the dessert order - then came to the table and asked if we wanted dessert!?!! She was very pleasant but the role of a server might not be best for her! Now the food however was a solid 5 - the chili crisp crab burrata was one of the best dishes I have had anywhere ! The garlic sticky noodles were also fantastic , loved the smashed cucumber, the impossible pot stickers were not as good as in the past as they were cold and chewy - almost as though they had been made days ahead and were stale! The mapo tofu was great and we have plenty left over and my husband and daughter enjoyed the cashew chicken! We love the quaint setting, great playlist and fantastic food but service throughout from the server to the folks expediting dishes was substandard ! For this reason would hesitate returning in a hurry!

    Let me start by saying we came on Valentine's Day with reservations…read more Service: Fantastic! Our server Alizae was great. Very friendly, happy, and attentive. She knew portion sizes, flavor profiles, and made sure we were happy with food selections. Ambiance: place is trendy. Decor was really nice and the place felt welcoming. My spouse and I could converse in a regular level and never felt as if we needed to shout to be heard. Food: Delicious! We opted for the 7 course prefix meal and it didn't disappoint. We added the shrimp and Brussels sprouts appetizer (which we took home). As this was our first time, we don't realize they had different menus. Everything we had was phenomenal. We will be back. Look at the pictures for the food items

    We finally decided to check out 375 Social Kitchen, and I'll be honest... I was a little hesitant…read moreat first. I had heard service can take a bit longer than your typical brunch spot. But once we sat down, it made sense. Everything is made to order, and you can taste the difference. There was only one server handling the entire floor, and when a rush hit all at once, it definitely got busy fast. But here's the thing... she handled it with grace. Even when you could tell she was juggling a lot, she stayed attentive, kind, and kept checking in on us. That kind of effort deserves recognition. Now let's talk about the real star of the show... The Texas French Toast. Oh. My. Goodness. Thick, golden, perfectly cooked slices topped with homemade whipped cream and fresh berries that tasted like they were picked that morning. It wasn't just good, it was indulgent in the best way. Sweet without being overwhelming. Rich but balanced. I couldn't even finish it (which says a lot), and happily boxed the rest up. The only regret? I ate all the berries first. Rookie mistake. My husband ordered one of the hash plates and said it was solid comfort food... hearty, flavorful, and filling. He couldn't finish his either, so I'm definitely sneaking a few bites later. Overall, we left impressed. The food feels intentional. The flavors feel thoughtful. It's the kind of local spot you want to root for. And the fact that they serve pork lumpia for lunch? Say less. We'll be back for that. If you're looking for a cozy, made-from-scratch brunch spot in Universal City, this one is worth the wait. Good food takes time, and this place proves it. ***This review is based on my taste buds.
