    Returning after 6 months and so happy to see this place thriving- both in their offerings and the foot traffic. It was very busy on a Saturday morning. Got the warm Ube matcha. It was delicious. Not too sweet and has good blend of both Ube and matcha. We also had the velvet brûlée- it was so good. Great taste of coffee and just enough crème brûlée making the drink creamy with a hint of sweetness. Highly recommended this drink. The pork banh mi was also a highlight for me. It was very tasty! I would come here for lunch tasty. It was a pleasant surprise since I didn't expect a beverage place would have super tasty banh mi. It was overall a satisfying (satiating) visit. My recommendation to the owner is to provide a little description of the drink as I can't imagine the staff having to answer to the many questions of "what's a velvet brûlée", or "brew-Bea" and they'd rather focus on crafting each drink. ;) also labeling the flavor of the various fun rice crispies would be helpful.

    Service is great, but tbh I don't rock with their matcha, if anything it taste like jasmine green milk tea

    I came on a Monday for an afternoon snack. The staff was friendly and helpful in answering my questions. Too bad they didn't have the Croc waffle at the time. I had the pistachio luxe and the grilled pork Banh Mi. There were visible pistachios in the drink, which I greatly appreciated. The pork Banh Mi was sweet and satisfying. The store was decorated super cute, and it was a great place for me to sit down and work for a little bit since they also provided free Wi-Fi. Though the Wi-Fi didn't seem to allow access to all sites (such as Yelp), I was still able to get some work done. Overall, it's a great spot to grab some snacks and get work done. Hopefully next time I come back, the Croc waffle will be available. Parking was easy since there was a parking lot.

    Green tea w boba
    Piko L.

    Top tier drinks, wonderful service, and super pretty interior decor puts this tea shop in my top 3 favs in the area. Love the adorable 4 month old husky puppy named Dong who chills in the far corner by the windows. The bahn mi can sell out near the end of the day, so highly recommend going to get one for lunch with a pick-me-up drink! The grilled beef option had a nice balance of greens, mayo, jalapeno, and the bread was baked nice and crunchy. It def hit the spot! The green tea was very fragrant and the la bean cloud was also delicious! The boba is cooked well and the fruit drink (lychee green tea) is very floral and had a great base tea flavor. I aim to try everything on the menu and it's always a nice bonus to see a cute dog. I'd come here very week to pet Dong and also grab a sandwich + drink!

    What a cute cafe! Delicious (and quite reasonably priced) bahn mi sandwiches in perfectly crunchy rolls. Also tried the pistachio luxe on the server's recommendation- creamy, nutty, and delicious. The ambiance was a pop of spring with vibrant colors - so cheerful and unexpected - perfect pick me up on a dreary Seattle day. Service was very friendly. Will come again!

    Cute statement

    I was around the area and wanted to get some coffee. I stumbled upon this place after hearing about it on IG. Parking is shared amongst with other businesses. Upon entering the cafe, it has a cozy vibe filled with cute floral decors. The menu had a lot of drink selection with pictures for reference. I decided to try the coco velvet latte while my friend got the pistachio latte. We both wanted to try their salted cream so we added that in as well. The worker brought our drinks to our table and instructed us to shake to mix. Overall, the drinks were okay. Coffee wasn't strong enough imo. We both like the flavors but thought Vietnamese coffee should be a bit stronger and less milky. I guess I should've ordered the one with double shots. This place is a cute cafe for hangouts and IG. But if you want your coffee stronger, I suggest ordering their sunrise sips drinks (rookie mistake). I think I will give their matcha a try next time whenever I'm nearby.

    Young coconut
    Eva R.

    LA bean was very good. I got their young coconut matcha and the coconut water was very sweet. I really like the matcha foam where it was slightly bitter which balances the coconut water. I would love to come back and try more of their drinks. Staff were very friendly and I love the cafe it's so cute

    Anna C.

    Tried this place out for the first time and it did not disappoint! The drinks are very characteristic of Vietnamese drinks as they are on the sweeter and thicker side. I got the milk tea (with sea salt foam, grass jelly and boba). It is definitely quite sweet and there is unfortunately no way to adjust sweetness. Luckily I love sweet stuff though, so I enjoyed it. The sea salt foam is really good and the flavor is strong, one of the best/most flavorful ones I've had. Boba is also cooked well and is chewy. It's a thick drink and is sizable. The young coconut matcha was also good, it's very coconut-y and thick. There definitely is a good amount of ice though so you might have to be a bit patient in waiting for that to melt... I would say the coconut flavor is a bit stronger than the matcha, however we still enjoyed it! The store itself is cute and has great lighting! Would definitely be back if craving a sweet dessert drink!

    Chicken Banh Mi w/o butter
    Yona P.

    I mainly went in to check out the Crocs waffle for my kiddo, but of course I couldn't resist trying their bánh mì too--so I got the chicken, no butter. I prefer a sweet, tangy bánh mì, and butter or that creamy sauce kind of throws me off, so I skipped it. Honestly, I'd rather have a Sriracha option. The Crocs waffle took about 15 minutes, which they told me when I ordered. I crisped it up again at home to serve it to my son, who was so excited to eat a waffle shaped like a shoe. It literally looked like his yellow Crocs, lol. Ahhhhhh... but then--he wouldn't even swallow his first bite. Even after dipping it in his favorite ube cream. So I tried it... and hmm. It honestly felt like it was missing something? Like... baking powder??? It was extremely dense, doughy, and very heavy. Almost like undercooked egg-flour batter. The ube cream was great, but not enough to save that failed waffle. We were expecting a fluffy, airy, pillowy waffle with a light crisp on the outside... but oh, well. The bánh mì, on the other hand, was actually good. I just wish the bread had been gutted more--it was a bit too heavy. I noticed most people were getting boba drinks, so I guess I ordered all the non-signature items. Ambiance was cute though... lots of artificial flowers?!

    Velvet brulee coffee
    Kim C.

    This is by far the tastiest coffee I've had. I saw a video of the velvet brulee on Instagram and needed it immediately. The small parking lot was filled on a weekday around lunch time so I parked in the lot by Amazon Fresh and walked across. My coffee came out fast and it tasted delicious. My only wish is that they would serve the Vietnamese coffee with less caffeine as an option. Although the drink is beyond delicious I could barely drink half. Vietnamese coffee makes me very jittery. I've recommended this place to friends and they also loved the velvet brulee. I plan to bring my sisters when they visit too. Hopefully the lower caffeine coffee is a viable offering soon, if so I'll be coming back several times a week. I definitely want to try one of their Croc waffles they look so cute!

    Ube Love Potion
    Joe H.

    I had someone pick this up for me so this won't be a full review of the service or the ambiance of the store But I really like the Ube Love Potion. It reminded me of the OG Taro Milk Tea with tapioca from the late 90s. I will be back to try more drinks and food!

    Tammy L.

    Nice new Vietnamese coffee shop in the Bellevue area. Love the variety of drinks and sweet and savory food options. I wish they had more alternative milk options available. The banh mi was delicious and staff was friendly.

    Sip happens...make it LA bean....
    Sierra W.

    Really wanted to love this place but nope. Not returning! Love the location is near the factoria mall though. All the mentions about way too much ice is true. My drink was filled to the brim with ice. Walking in the atmosphere is beautiful but the service was chaotic and stressed. The tall light brown haired man was very stressed and I was told it would be a bit until he could help me at the register so I opted for the self ordering iPad everyone else was ordering from. On the self ordering screen I couldn't purchase the cookies as there was no option for that sadly so you have to order that with a cashier at the register which seems to be difficult. No ice level adjustment options available on the self ordering screens.... As it was super busy I waited more than 10 minutes for my drink. Probably 15-20 minutes. Once I received my drink the Chill Out Matcha I was super disappointed to see barely any drink and just tons of ice stacked to the top. The drink was okay, nothing impressive or memorable. Price. Expensive as hell. I live in Seattle and can get better for cheaper, bigger, and am allowed to ask for light ice or less ice at least. This drink was too expensive for such a small size, poor service, and wayyyyy too much ice. I paid $10 for basically ice it felt like a violation. Can't go back here again...it's just not it. Would not recommend at all. Save your time and money.

First, they even made two drinks for the event which were tasty and gorgeous. It was a bit rocky at first as the event started but after going through the flow, they were able to figure out to ensure customers got a receipt to know what number they were when they called out order numbers. They did have a bunch of musubi out but there was one left by the time I left as I was still inside to check out the artists' booth that were set up inside. The store is on the smaller side so just be aware! The space looked clean and organized. The staff here were friendly and professional. They are also dog friendly as I emailed them and they emailed back that well-behaved and leashed dogs were welcome.

    Based on the name, one may think that you must create your own drink from scratch, but that is not…read morethe case. In fact, this place actually has a large number of featured drinks and a well-rounded menu. They allow customers to create a DIY Custom Fruit Tea or DIY Custom Lemonade, but those were the only true DIY items I saw. + MANGO MATCHA FRESH MILK ($6.25 + $0.75 boba): Most of the time, I will order a signature drink or one that is labeled "recommended" on the menu. While this one doesn't fall under either category, I still decided to try it and am so glad I did! I customized it with zero sugar and less ice. The mango sauce drizzled on the sides of the cup added the perfect sweetness and tasted like the natural ripe fruit. After stirring it all up, the matcha was somewhat masked, but the drink was delicious, reminding me of a mango ice cream. The boba was cooked perfectly and had the ideal bounce. + WHITE PEACH OOLONG FRESH MILK ($6.25): I've read different opinions about this drink, but I personally enjoyed it! At 25% sweetness and light ice, I found this refreshing and reminiscent of peaches and cream. Neither the oolong nor the peach flavors were super prominent, but I was able to detect the slight bitterness of the tea and the subtle notes of peach. The drink just seemed heavy-handed with the milk, so it could have been more balanced. My companion ordered the LYCHEE FRUIT GREEN TEA. The menu states this includes lychee syrup and lychee fruit which we interpreted to mean lychee bits, but it turned out to be two whole lychees. She ordered it at zero sweetness, but she said 25% would probably have been ideal since the boba itself is unsweetened. Pricing is reasonable and on par with other boba shops. During both of my visits here, the cashier was friendly and very knowledgeable about the drinks. For example, we asked what was in Harmony's Lava Lamp and she was able to recall all the ingredients on the spot. Once we ordered, our drinks were prepared quickly and we were on our way. If you're seeking a snack with your tea, they have both sweet and salty options including Spam musubis, mochi donuts, chicken karaage, bubble waffles and more. I'd return again the next time I'm in the area!

    Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #100…read more One hundred Seattle-Area boba shop reviews, in less than a year since moving to Washington. Yeah, I drink way too much boba... This is certainly the most unique Don't Yell At Me location, consisting of a little standalone building fully enclosed with floor to ceiling windows. The bobarista station is situated right in the center, and there are full walkways with seating surrounding the center in a circular pathway all around. While they don't have dedicated parking, there's limited street parking in front and free 30 minute retail parking in the Bellevue Tower Garage down the street. Traditional Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Golden Honey Pearls ($6.85) -This drink has a pleasantly strong tea flavor. It's very nicely sweet (not from the sweetener) and has a robust earthy and herbal flavor that kind of tastes like liquid grass jelly. Quite pleasant, and stronger than what I remember receiving from other DYAM locations. Too bad the boba is mediocre. The pearls, small transparent golden balls, are sweetened well in honey, but are far too firm to give a great chew or bounce. Definitely undercooked, albeit not rock hard. Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 3.5/5 Given the undercook on the golden honey pearls and the typically softer brown sugar pearls, I might have to opt for the latter in any future visit.

Turns out it's a boba spot. Since we were already there, we decided to grab a snack and hang out for a bit. They've got Hong Kong-style egg waffles for about $5, plus an assortment of desserts like Japanese dessert sandwiches, egg tarts (a few looked a little on the "extra toasted" side), and boba tea in more variations than I could keep track of. If we'd been hungrier, we probably would've ordered more, but we settled on the egg waffle. The space itself feels almost like a bonus add-on to the building kind of a big kiosk and I saw the running supplies over from the building next door. There's a small seating area by the pickup window, but most people seemed to take their orders to go. Our waffle took a long while to come out, but when it did, it was perfectly baked warm, crisp on the outside and that perfect chewiness on the inside, ideal for snacking as we continued exploring the fair. If you're driving, parking nearby might be a bit of a mystery, but if you're already on foot around the Bellevue Galleria, it's worth stopping in for a boba or a quick treat.
