It was either an everything bagel, cream cheese spread and a beverage at Starbucks or T4 Alameda. I chose the latter over the former. Wow! Nice selection of flavored teas, milk teas, smoothies, milkshakes, snacks and assortment of toppings. Also, they have three new items - chicken katsu bowl, chicken katsu sandwich, popcorn chicken rice bowl (price range $8.75 to $9.25). Eats: Chicken katsu rice bowl with a side of pickled radish. Beverage: lychee green tea with lychee jelly. (4 star) Chicken katsu has a crispy outer texture, yet moist and tasty. Lychee green tea is on point, refreshing with bits of lychee jelly. Service is quick and employee is friendly helpful. Seating capacity: about 20 people. Ambiance: casual and comfy. Three menu board mounted on wall. Lighting is perfect. Lunch counter has five chairs facing Park Street. Lunch: $17.44 (tax included). I must admit choosing T4 over Starbucks is better. Glad I made the right choice. Future visits: yes. Eager to try the avocado milkshake and a snack.

I got it at 70% sweetness and the drink was pretty sweet but the fruits were sour and didn't seem to go well with the tea. The sugar cane tea was also with 70% sweetness and it was pretty sweet. I think I prefer sugar cane juice without tea. The store was dim and doesn't seem too captivating. If I were to come back. I'd give the strawberry series a try.

I hateeeee going back to "complain" LOL but it was REALLY BAD. And they didn't even give me that much boba. I went back and asked the cashier (she was not the one who originally made my drink).

She said sorry and was really nice. The salted cheese tasted a bit off. But honestly maybe it is because I haven't been to happy lemon in a while.

You can see how their customer service on this overall sucked. The tea and lemon wasn't as good as I remembered or was it the poor process with them? Prolly lil of both.

This is strictly a review for the ramen and udon! Tonkotsu ramen was pretty good! I'm not 100% sure…read moreif it's authentic tonkotsu, but all things considered it hit the spot on a rainy Wednesday. It was savory without being too overpoweringly salty, had two pieces of tender chashu (which is rare in this economy), and the noodles had a nice bite to it. My friend got the udon and she said it was good, although she felt the chicken was a bit bland. We got the chicken karaage as an appetizer and it was good, but the sauce definitely carried.

Based on service only: Really frustrating experience with Sushi & More. I drove out of my way based…read moreon the hours listed online, only to find the place closed. What made it worse was that the doors were open and there were employees inside huddled around a table. When I walked in, they just casually said the place was closed--no explanation, no signage, nothing. I even asked when they'd be open again and none of them had an answer. No one seemed to know what was going on. If your hours have changed or you're not serving, update your website and put a sign on the door. This was a complete waste of my time and a pretty poor customer experience.

The Tropical Breeze, which features honeydew and pineapple, is a good option if you enjoy sweet and tart flavors. The Strawberry Milk Tea tastes like a classic milk tea mixed with strawberry puree. The drinks can be hit or miss; some days they are great and other days not as much. The shop itself is cute, with tables and seating available. There is usually music playing, making it a nice place to relax or hang out. Based on my visits, I would rate the place around a 3 to 3.5. The drinks can be inconsistent, and while the service is courteous, it is not exceptional. When they first opened, this was one of the few boba spots in Alameda. Although there are now many more choices, it remains one of my regular options when I am craving boba in the area.

WINTER MELON MILK TEA (light ice, brown sugar boba): Not too sweet! Kind of a bummer they can't adjust sweetness, but at least it's balanced well. The wintermelon flavor is deliciously strong. The boba though... Overcooked and mushy texture with very little flavor. My partner was fine with his usual mango sago. I think we need to try their coffees and specialty drinks next (looking at the Pandan Milk Tea and Phin Egg Coffee...)

Maybe don't go with rambunctious kids/people because each person having their individual volcano is a lot. Besides choosing the soup/contents, you can add stuff but maybe don't because I was stuffed and only finished about half. You can choose between noodles or rice (try noodle next time if split hotpot with someone else). Def try the various chili sauces. Also, split 4-ways a coconut pudding that comes in a green coconut (can confirm you can scrape the green coconut pieces). That was also delish. Not fancy but seemed pretty clean. Eclectic decor but since the bubbling pots on fire is the real entertainment, who's really looking?
