I've tried to give this location multiple chances, but after today I'm honestly done. A while back, I had an experience where there was only one worker and it took around 20 minutes just to get my order. I brushed it off and even deleted my review because I wanted to give them another chance. Today was just as frustrating. I walked in around closing time and didn't realize they were closed since there were still customers inside and multiple employees working. I had already started ordering at the kiosk when I was told they were closed. I understand closing times, but the doors should've been locked or there should be a clear heads-up before customers start ordering. The whole situation felt really unorganized. I'm also fasting, so I was really looking forward to getting a drink, which made it even more disappointing. Definitely won't be coming back. read more

I wish they had aBoba Time in Thousand Oaks! I really like this place. They have so many different varieties of drinks and smoothies along with the boba. They are pricey but it's a nice treat. I usually frequent the one in West Hills because I work there but live in TO. They are pretty quick at making the drinks and they taste good. My favorite is the horchata but my friend usually gets the avocado and berries and it's not bad at all. They have some food options but i haven't tried any. The place has some stools to sit at if you want to stick around but primarily it's to go. The staff have always been nice at West Hills and this location I have only been once but pleasant as well. I enjoy the drinks as a nice treat and if closer I'd be there more often! read more

One of the better Boba places in Simi Valley, or so I'm told. I am not a big boba fan, but I love the pistachio frappe. It is one of the best things I have ever tasted. The ones that do drink boba in my family, like this place and especially like the variety of drinks that you can order. The cheesecake and macarons are delicious and they have several flavors to choose from. Recently, one of my kids ordered an acai bowl and loved it. She said it was one of the better acai bowls that she has ever had. This place gets crowded and sometimes you may have to wait a little longer to get your drink. This is especially true when a movie ends at the nearby movie theater and everyone comes by after their movie. The location is teeny tiny, so you may want to order and wait outside until they call your number. There is plenty of parking. Share review read more

I like to come here whenever I am in the area. Their menu is massive, and they offer seasonal items. Their milk teas are pretty good. I also tried the sea salt coffee once which I really enjoyed. They also offer dessert items including cheesecake and macarons. The last time I was here, I ordered the New York cheesecake. It was so yummy but not too heavy. Customer service is so so. Keep in mind that this place is pretty popular; expect long lines and wait times in the evenings and on weekends. Parking is never an issue.

Ended up getting the combo that included a healthy shake, fat burning tea (I picked lemon flavor) and an aloe shot (for digestive health). The aloe shot wasn't bad - a light aloe flavor so easy to drink. The tea was really good - nice flavor and refreshing. So many flavors to choose from with the protein shakes, but I decided on the salted caramel latte flavor. Flavor was good, all good ingredients, no added sugar and really kept me full for the next 3 hours. Hubby had the mango pineapple shake which was really good too. I love the fact that there are so many different flavors which makes me want to come back and try others.

Whipped cream - had a really funky taste to it, which the server agreed with... Both of my kids asked me to remove it from theirs. $28 for two açai bowls that ended up getting thrown in the trash. The two stars is for the service as she replaced the toppings once I scraped off all of the whipped cream and chocolate syrup. I would have no reason to come here again and trust anything - plus, if that's how much just an açai bowl was then my money is better spent somewhere I know the product is going to be amazing.

When we ordered, it took about 15-20 minutes to get an açaí bowl and a smoothie. It sucks because it looks like this location doesn't have a lot of bad reviews, but this was TRŪ-ly not a great experience so far. As for the taste of the smoothie and the bowl, they were good! My boyfriend got the Coco Loco, which was heavier on the banana and peanut butter side of things, and I got a Rio açaí bowl. The smoothie was $13 and a small bowl was $10 (and then gradually goes up depending on the size for the bowls.) It's unfortunate that this experience wasn't the greatest that it could have been. I don't know if this was just because they were a little busy and/or were understaffed. The actual products tasted good, though, and they're not the worst on pricing, especially more for the açaí bowls. We'd be interested in trying Trū Bowl Superfood Bar again since it's so easy and convenient in the little Westlake area, but we're just hesitant of timing now.

I've had different experiences at this location as I'm a huge fan of the mango smoothie. It's been very good lately, but in the past it's been watered down for a $5.25 smoothie + guilted tip. I still love coming here, but it's a disappointment when my smoothie isn't at its best. Although the staff was very friendly as to make me a new one I cannot complain. read more

First time being here, and I'm not really a big fan but my granddaughter is in love. For me, I was expecting the coffee to taste sweeter, but it taste more strong. But the smoothie is amazing! Maybe tone down the boba, but it's just depends on the costumer as well. Besides that, it's perfect. Would come again, worth the half and hour time! read more

Everything is so delicious!! The workers are always so nice whenever I visit, and it looks like the perfect place to study and have my little boba.

After 6 visits I think I can say this is the best boba shop in Simi Valley!…read more Since everyone has different tastes I want to make my preferences apparent in the details. Here are their strongest offerings I've liked so far: Boba texture: leans on the soft chewy side but no sweetness is apparent in stronger drinks (tea/coffee forward) it's good Pistachio Smoothie: rich and creamy and the pistachio bits are a nice salty and crunchy element. I drink this way too fast... Wintermelon Milk Tea: smooth, rich in flavor that leans heavily towards barley, and a subtle sweetness that rounds it out to my favorite wintermelon outside LA! Wintermelon Green Tea: solid and refreshing offering but next time I'll get it without the chia seeds if possible. Barely leaning which is right up my alley! Jasmine Milk Tea: creamy, floral, and smooth with a hint of sweetness that makes this a more complex and deep flavor. Top notch and better than any you can find in the valley. Vietnamese Ice Coffee: (wife's opinion) strong, hazelnut notes, and subtly sweet that hides behind the coffee. Could do with a sweet cold foam or a bit of condensed milk and it would be perfect. This is for the coffee lovers! Parking is decent and the interior is spacious enough for simple tabletop. My wife and I played some MTG and the table size is perfect! In terms of notes for the drinks I wasn't a fan of I'll simply say the sweeter variety fruit drinks (tea/slushies) didn't hit the mark as I found them light on flavor/sweetness. Here are the ones I tried: Mango Sunrise Strawberry Creamsicle Mango Slush Peach Slush **Everything is subjective** I'd say I'm pretty satisfied with the rotation I've found here and I'm quite happy to finally have some decent boba options! I definitely recommend trying it and finding what you think fits your preferences!

There were a few customers when we came in. And we were the only ones left after our meal. The price of the food is reasonable enough.

Makenna Coffee is seriously such a hidden gem!…read more I first discovered this place completely by accident a while back when one of my girlfriends and I were on our way to go camping. We were craving coffee, searched for the closest coffee shop, and happened to stumble across Makenna Coffee. I remember absolutely falling in love with their coffee and thinking, "I cannot wait until we come back this way so I can get this again!" Unfortunately, I never ended up making it back... until today! We happened to be in the area for an appointment at the Jeep dealership, and when I realized Makenna Coffee was nearby, there was NO WAY I was leaving without stopping. This was only my second time here, and somehow it was just as good as I remembered. Taylor helped me and she was such a sweetheart! I couldn't remember what I had ordered the first time, so she helped me pick out two different drinks to try -- the Sandy Blonde and the Maui Latte. I ordered them half sweet, and they were still a little sweeter than I normally prefer, but honestly, they were amazing nonetheless. I'm usually a black coffee/Americano kind of girl, but every once in a while I get a serious sweet tooth and want something fun and indulgent -- and Makenna Coffee is PERFECT for that. Their coffee is so good, and there's just something about this little spot that I've loved ever since I accidentally discovered it. I only wish I lived closer because I would definitely be here way more often. If you're ever in this area, do yourself a favor and stop at Makenna Coffee. It's one of those little gems you're so happy you found.

I went inside and I am a coffee and chocolate lover so I was in awe when I came inside. And of course I had to get my chocolate treat since I didn't have any at home. The shop has this warm, cozy vibe to it. There's seating outside but also all the way in the back. There's an expresso bar in the back and a cute vintage looking set up where you can sit down and enjoy your coffee and treat. I got some chocolate barks (dark chocolate almond bark, milk chocolate almond bark, sugar free milk chocolate almond bark) and the sugar free peanut butter cup and the dark chocolate tiramisu truffle which the girl said is their most popular item. I also got the chocolate chip cookie and omg! Really enjoyed it! It wasn't hard or too soft. It was crispy enough and if you do like it on the softer side, just a little bit in the microwave and it'll come out just right. It tasted like it just came out from the oven. I didn't get coffee because it was too late in the day but I happen to be around the next day and stopped by to get a latte! Although they dont have their flavored lattes on the menu they do have different ones you just gotta ask. I got the iced hazelnut latte which was so good, not a lot of ice, and only $4.50 for a 16oz! I'm excited to know where it is and can't wait to come back! There's a lot of parking since it's in the big shopping center right next to Sprouts.
