Wow, this was my first time going to Ocha. My kids have been recommending it for a while and I…read morefinally decided to try it out. I'm definitely going back to try other things on their menu, I got their Japanese Toast with bananas and strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It was delicious. They set the bar high for next time. It was worthy of a high end restaurant dessert and the price was more than reasonable. For those of you who haven't been to Ocha, please give it a try, you won't regret it.

Today I visited with my boyfriend and upon first walking in, I knew I wanted a matcha latte, but…read moresince it was cold outside I wanted it to be hot. I asked the server if he could add the extra cream topping to it and he was very accommodating. It's not typical for someone to order that so he made sure to let me know that he wanted to know how it tasted My boyfriend ordered the Red Dragon tea and we both bought pins (which you pull at random from a box for 3 bucks each) and he really enjoyed it! My hot matcha latte with crème brûlée cream was really good as well and incredibly sweet, I think I will order something similar to it when I come back. Overall, the service was great, the drinks were excellent, and the atmosphere was very relaxing. They have plenty of chairs with a decent amount of room between them and classical music playing over the speakers.

Every bit of the meal was absolutely fantastic!

I knew we were in the right place when we walked I. And half of the restaurant were Vietnamese peeps. Was a warming experiencing hearing patrons throw a few traditional Lunar New Year greetings at each other and the owners. It's a small mom and pop shop, so much so, pop was the sole soldier working the entire front of the house. As such, don't expect super fast service, but good service nonetheless. We started with the fresh spring rolls, which were good, and their fried egg rolls, which I probably won't order again. The egg rolls were pretty much veggies, loosely filled, and served with a sweet and sour type dipping sauce. It was more of an Americanized Chinese style egg roll, not a Vietnamese cha gio with nouc cham. I ordered the pho dac biet and it was VERY good. The large is HUGE. Most places back home have suffered from shrink-flation and large bowls are tiny now. Not this place, I struggled to finish the bowl. My friends got the seafood pho, and another got the pho ga (chicken). I of course did not slide my chopsticks in theirs and swipe a bite, but they said they enjoyed theirs. I would definitely come back here again and maybe try some of their other dishes.
