    I loved the boba and the shaved ice but I love this place and great service but I found something in my ice but not a big deal cause this shop deserves a 11/10 but it kinda takes long

    Taro milk tea boba

    We purchased a taro milk tea that did NOT taste or look like what we have purchased in the past. We were so looking forward to enjoying our tea but left feeling Very disappointed and upset. Having to throw out the drink after two sips. In the photo you can see the specks of purple it should have been, compared to the chocolate brown look it actually was.

    Dust buildup on top.. gross

    They don't do poke and out of a lot of roll options. Not sure why this place is popular with lots of reviews. Perhaps, they are known for their drinks?! Slightly busy with one employee and a whole lot of dust on the fan. They need to hire another employee as I waited over 10 mins and there were 5 people still waiting to order and get their food/drink while more people were walking in. Sorry, I'm not a fan and I feel horrid for the employee.

    Thai tea

    Really good Thai tea, they have a wide selection of sushi rolls I have yet to try. Service was quick.

    One of our go-to flavors is green tea with passion fruit and this place includes the seeds which I'm not a fan of. Chia seeds or basil seeds are great but the big crunchy passion fruit seeds not so much... however this was my first time trying butterfly pea tea in one and it was good in my rose tea. My favorite was definitely their pomegranate tea though.

    BEST STAFF EVER, felt like family! Thai tea boba 10/10! My friend got the phili roll & absolutely loved it.

    Drink tasted amazing and I had a wonderful conversation with the owner! I'm definitely gonna check out his 2nd location

    Cucumber roll needed to be rolled tighter.

    Located in the Indio neighborhood this is a great place to grab sushi to go. We ordered cucumber roll, dragon, and California roll. The menu is posted on the wall- there are no descriptions of the rolls, but the staff knew all the ingredients when asked about the rolls. The selections of boba tea will make it hard to choose! Sushi is on par with the price, the cucumber rolls were not rolled as tight, so it resulted them coming apart when we opened the package up. The California roll needed more avocado.

    The staff was super sweet and accommodating. Had some boba and it was delicious. The boba texture was perfect and the size was nice. Doing well with covid regulations as well. Support local business!

    Hibiscus Tea
    Tracee B.

    I really liked the Hibiscus tea!! I added chia seeds and aloe vera in addition to the boba pearls and it was SO good. Super refreshing on a hot summer day. I was sipping away before I remembered to take a picture! My mom got the Matcha Latte and she really liked it as well. Would stop by again just for that tea.

    Three great flavors! Tati, pineapple, pomegranate!
    Jill C.

    So many tasty flavors to try! We stopped in on a late afternoon in February and had the whole place to ourselves. I am sure in the heat this place is crazy busy. The taro flavor is authentic, best we ever had. Very creative menu and great prices.

    Two new yummy options!!!!

    Update Update: I just love the Double Espresso Frapp with Boba! YUM! Tonight I tried their Fresh Coconut...Wow! What a treat! Get fresh coconut water straight from the coconut & also the coconut flesh...I was advised to put Chamoy & Lime Tajin Pepper Salt Mixture on top! Blew my socks off! YUM! I'm totally gonna try the Mangoneada Slushie next time since it has Mango & Chamoy Sauce in it... Mmmm --- Got a Raspberry Green Tea with Green Apple Jellies... Yummy, light & refreshing. I initially wanted the Jasmine Green Tea & they said they were the out...Sad Face... On my 3rd visit, they had Jasmine Green Tea...YummO They don't have a Punch Card system yet. Please get one soon :-) ***Owner said she's working on this. Yay! They do have an assortment of food like cakes, pastries, brownies (just in time for Coachella...um, ok, not THOSE type of brownies...hahaha), sushi, & fresh fruit... Yummy! There were 3 people behind the counter...they all seemed nice. It was a little warm & humid in the shop. :-( It could be cooler inside... UPDATE: Their a/c was having issues & now it's fixed! Nice & Cool! No more humidity inside! Yay! Theres only one bathroom all the way at the back left of the store. There are a few tables (1 in front, 2 in back) & a bar to sit up at. **Note to management (hehe): you could probably fit another little table in the front part of your shop...Maybe when you get busier... ***UPDATE: Wow! IB&T is on it! There are now an ample number of tables! Great job! Management rocks! :-) My consensus: I'll be back... Maybe next time I'll get all fancy with my order & see if they can produce. ;) My Updated Consensus: "Hi! MY Name Is Layla & I'm a Boba & Tea Addict!" Hahaha... Update: Went the other day & wanted a Non-Dairy Thai Tea with Boba... They figured it out by taking some Coconut Powder wicked with a little water & Also some Coconut Milk (In essence they made the equivalent of nondairy Half & Half)... It tasted great! Still kept the sweetness without sacrificing the richness of cream. Great Job! Yummy Food, Drinks, Treats & Awesome Customer Service! Now this place has consistently proven to be a 5 Star after working out a few details at opening!x

    What to order, what to order? Unfortunately, "everything" isn't an option. LOL!

    See all
