Can't get fresher than this!! Get the Mango Berry Milk Shaved Ice / 草莓牛奶冰 and add Rice Balls! You won't regret it. Super nice and fresh on a hot Houston day. The shaved ice is super soft and fluffy, with the sweet condensed milk and icecream as a topping pairs great. The rice balls were nice and chewy and gives the shaved ice an extra texture. Plenty of searing inside and parking is within the plaza or garage. read more

This place is so awesome, especially on a hot day or night! I always get the icy grass jelly with taro balls and taro paste, and it's consistently so good every time. It's the perfect spot to hang out with friends and enjoy a refreshing dessert. I love this place! Service is good too! read more

Overall - a delicious dessert experience if you're a fan of grass jelly, mochi balls, and icecream. Food: plenty of options to choose from but be warned that they don't let you substitute stuff from the built in bowls alrdy (although you can do that at other locations). Price is kinda expensive for the portion but they r easily shareable between 2-3 ppl for the bowls. I'd recommend the double taro but put it on the side c the texture was weird. Everything else in it was good n the perfect lvl of sweetness. Service: bc it was busy when we came, it did take a bit for it to come out so maybe expect a 5-15 min wait. Atmosphere: it is a very cozy and cute vibe w all the decor. Main issue is spacing and table availability. Expect a huge wait for an open table bc if it's busy, every spot will probs be filled up. Liked how there was some games you could play with. Would recommend for family, friends, or date outings. Warning: parking can get very hectic so be aware of limited parking spots. read more

I got the Hot Red Bean Soup Signature. The soup was warm and had a thinner texture than I expected. They had to add the sesame rice balls, not very pliable, after I noticed they weren't in the bowl. It tasted like scoops of everything were added to the bowl with the red bean soup poured over it. If the soup was hotter, maybe everything would have been warmed through. For some reason, while I was sitting there at night, they decided to increase the volume for the music really high when everyone was just conversing quietly. read more

Tried their Pudding & Q mochi Milk shaved ice - (almond pudding, caramel pudding, mini q, q mochi, melon jelly, and ice cream) this time around. 13$ for a medium, 14$ for a large I will give them kudos that their large is really, large. Can definitely feed a entire party cause wow that was a lot. I would say taste-wise, its mostly just okay. All of these jellies and puddings were fairly tasteless to us. I personally think the ice cream was probably the best part. My party got their oolong milk tea and the hot almond drink and were okay. The hot drink option is nice and a bit different and stands out compared to other neary drink options. read more

Meet Fresh is known for their authentic taiwanese shaved ice with fresh fruit and mochi toppings. And I'm all here for it. There has never been a dessert that I haven't enjoyed here. Most times, I get there big mango shaved ice mountain (I don't even know what it's called, but you'll see the menu pics and know which one I'm talking about). This order has never failed me. It features light, fresh ice, big and sweet mango chunks, super chewy and flavorful mochi bites that all go together so perfectly. Another one of my favorites is the cold tofu pudding dessert. For those that have never tried, it is soft jiggly tofu in a ginger soup base that is so refreshing and satisfying, espectially in the hot texas heat. Reminds me so much of my childhood summers in Taiwan. Recently, I also tried their mango sago and taro shaved ice mountain. Both were amazing and reinforced for me the eliteness of meet fresh. (I have heard that their drinks aren't good, and probably makes up for most of the supbar ratings here, but to each their own!) read more

Poor service. Poor communication. Marketing scams - I think I got scammed.. I attached to show the product that I actually got - the picture on the poster is very misleading compared to what i actually got. I am so disappointed. Where are the crumbs at the top of the ice cream? The ice cream isn't even pistachio - it's literally vanilla flavor. I can't believed I paid $15-ish for this. Big scam! I may as well go to Nu Ice for a way bigger mountain of ice and way cheaper price - they use real fruit for the ice flavor at Nu Ice. I was so excited for the pistachio series but the result was so frustrating and disappointing. I pointed it out to the staffs there - they just shrugged their shoulders, and did not even acknowledge my concern that I raised. Another thing, for a place that requires napkins when people eat, why don't you guys add more napkins? read more

Meet Fresh is it interesting take on Taiwanese iced desserts. Seating and ordering is made easy and quick. There's plenty of tables and space to choose from. The place overall is quiet and cute with hints of minimalism meets modern. In an age where Asian Foods is highly competitive, Meet Fresh has yet to carve out a niche that beckons returning customers. We ordered a shaved ice tower nested with red bean and mochi topped with ice cream. You would expect the ice to be a nice palette cleanser and refreshing base to help with in between bites of sweet such as ice cream and red bean. But the ice cream and red bean are already overly sweet and coupled with a sweet ice base is to overwhelming for me. The staff and space is nice, but that alone is not enough for me to want to return for seconds. Still, I hope the business thrives and aligns with a pool of consumers that enjoy a more all-encompassing sweet tooth treat. read more

Meet Fresh - Shaved ice tower with ice cream and bean - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

I came here for the first time on a Saturday afternoon. The place is very casual, order-at-counter type of place, and the service is also to pick up your order athe counter. If you have a group sharing, you could get some smaller bowls to share. I tried the mango and strawberry shaved ice, which had a nice fruity flavor, and the black sugar boba milky shaved ice which satisfied both the shaved ice and bubble tea cravings in one. Both were large, with a scoop of ice cream placed on top. I came with a group of 6 and there was plenty of room to sit, and we shared 3 total items. I really enjoyed the shaved ice here and the variety of flavor options! read more

Meet Fresh.... Sigh. I have been increasingly disappointed with my recent visits (around 5) over the past 3 months. We usually take it to go and they have a good amount of customers, but I have found that service has declined drastically. No more helpful staff that get you with smiles, oh no. Uninterested employees that are distracted? Check. In the middle of taking my order, she suddenly stops responding and I realize she's finishing a game of Go on her cell phone right in front of me. I don't care if you're on your phone if it's not busy, but I was literally in the middle of relaying my order to her! And she had the nerve to look up after she finishes the game as if I'm taking too long. Then she asks if that's all. SO SHE KNOWS I HADN'T COMPLETED THE ORDER. On top of that, there was a line behind Not in the least bit helpful? Double check. I ask them a question, they don't know and they don't help. They'll let you stand at the counter until you figure it out. Example: new menu items that aren't available in a tangible form so you either need to look at the poster in the front door or wait until it cycles back on the screen. But wait! You'll need to wait at least 2 cycles because there's a lot of text scattered on each screen and the person taking the order apparently doesn't know the difference between them all. Incorrect orders? Triple check. This is partially my fault as well as I didn't think to open up my order to double check before leaving the place so I only discovered it belatedly. The first time, I thought it was a fluke. Then it happened AGAIN. I don't know what happened, but training has gotten lax, or perhaps just the bare minimum. I don't know if there's anyone in charge on location, because it certainly doesn't seem that way. I've had these negatively experiences both when they're busy and when they only have a handful of tables so it can't be because of that either. I hope they step it up again, because I'm not impressed and my hope has began to dwindle - and I usually give benefit of the doubt! read more

Came on a wed night for dessert. Food 4.5/5: got the Q mochi and caramel pudding and the Thai iced tea. The mochi was a little on the firmer side, quite tasty. The pudding had great texture and wasn't too sweet. Wished the sweetness of the iced tea could be changed but otherwise was great. Ambiance 3/5: fairly clean, brightly lit. Very casual setting. IKEA style furniture with haphazard chairs placed around Value 4/5: decent price for the dessert amount and quality Overall 3.9/5: overall a good experience, would come back if I'm in the area to try other options read more

Solid place in Chinatown to come to for a good boba tea. In the crazy heat of Texas summers, this is a welcome place to go to. Ordering was quick and efficient. I got the Passion Fruit Tea and enjoyed the good balance between tea and fruit juice. It wasn't overly sweet, and I loved the added texture provided by having actual passion fruit included in the tea. Parking is hard to come by here, so just be sure to drop by during a less busy part of the day :) read more

I love meet fresh! We got the Icy Grass Jelly Signature which is taro balls (my personal fave), grass jelly, on ice (with brown sugar syrup or sweet syrup?), and comes with a creamer to pour on top. I also like the strawberry/mango milk shaved ice! The line sometimes gets long during peak hours but I think it's because there were only 2 workers. A lot of space to sit, eat, and chat with friends. They also call your number order out on a machine and you go get it from the counter. You also clean up after yourself (returning trays to a certain area, bowls, etc.) It's also on the same strip as a lot of restaurants, cafes, and other dessert spots. Parking close might be an issue but there's a parking garage/lot walking distance from it. I used to go to snowy dessert bar but it closed down so I go to meet fresh more now with my friends/family. Highly recommend if you're in the area :) read more

Meet Fresh - Thai tea shaved ice (L) - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

We were craving Taiwanese style desserts and shaved ice so came here on a whim for a treat. The parking is shared with many other tenants of Bellaire Food Street and it was pretty difficult finding a spot if you didn't want to park at the garage thats at the very far end of the plaza. Meet Fresh has a lot of drinks and sweets to offer including bubble waffles, shaved ice, grass jelly bowls, tapioca, taro balls, potaro balls, mung bean cakes and so on. Order at the front and get a buzzer for when your order is ready to pick up at the counter. When done, there is a tray return area. We tried a few items including a Black Sugar Boba Milk Tea (black sugar boba, milk tea), an Icy Taro Ball B (red beans, refined sugar, sago, shaved ice, taro, taro balls), and an Icy Grass Jelly B (creamer, grass jelly, grass jelly shaved ice, red beans, sago, taro). All of the items we tried were tasty, refreshing, and not too sweet (actually because we chose to have the sweetness level toned down at the register when ordering). Certain items do not have the option for less sweet but order as you please! The taro balls are nice and chewy, sago perfectly tender, grass jelly a good consistency, and portions quite generous. The only thing we didn't quite enjoy were the add-ons that don't originally come with the above items (caramel egg pudding and almond pudding with red beans), as they were too gelatin like and not much structure compared to others I've tried or to the ones I make myself at home. Additionally, I found out they do not let customers use their app rewards with a gift card. read more

Meet Fresh is well known for serving authentic Taiwanese desserts, and I remember enjoying their drinks while roaming around Cupertino. Either the Bellaire franchise is not living up to the standard, or I'm choosing the wrong desserts. Perhaps a bit of both. I've come here on two separate occasions, ordering the Herbal Tea with Fresh Milk + Glass Jelly first and the Black Sugar Boba Milk Tea second. Both tasted underwhelming with nothing in particular making me want more. I requested 50% sugar on both, but I didn't find the sweetness to be the problem. The black sugar milk tea had zero viscosity to it and did not have the creamy texture that I usually taste in this drink. However, my friends ordered taro bowls which tasted significantly better even though I only sampled one bite. I might have to give this place another shot and opt for something other than drinks next time. Service was impressively fast. My drink was out in about a minute and my friends' taro bowls were out in about two. Not the most comfortable seating; just smooth, flat wooden seats with no cushioning. My recommendation is to avoid the drinks and try the taro or grass jelly if it's your first time. It tastes surprisingly better than it looks. read more

I eat Bing Su often in Singapore where I live so was excited to try this place in Houston. Honestly I wasn't impressed. It seemed to have too many ingredients piled on top of the shaved ice which made it melt fast and become too liquidly. Service was counter order and pick up from counter too, not much interaction. It was a pretty good sized place, easy to get a seat. Very casual. read more

My friend suggested that I stop by this boba tea store to try out a new red bean dessert. I like the store because it is clean and cozy. I ordered the red bean with sticky rice jelly ball dessert.

Meet Fresh is a chain hailing from Taiwan that specializes in Taiwanese desserts. This location is in a strip mall in Chinatown so while it has its own parking lot, it seems to get pretty crowded. This is set up like a pretty typical Asian dessert shop, various tables and booths to sit at and an open space for lines to order and take away. Service was also what you'd expect from an Asian spot, sorta aloof but will meet minimum standards. For those unfamiliar with Asian desserts, this spot can be kind of jarring. While there are more familiar options like boba and shaved ice, their mainstays are various soups served either hot or cold and come with also potentially unfamiliar toppings. Beans, purple rice, grass jelly are some of the mains with various chewy additions as toppings. My favorite is the seasonal almond desserts, which are not the almonds Americans are familiar with but Chinese bitter almonds. They're a bit more floral and are actually the kernel of apricot seeds. They only have it in the fall/winter months though so def try and get it while in season! read more

I'm surprised I haven't left a review for Meet Fresh yet because it's got to be in my top 3 dessert places to hit. During this visit, we hit the post dinner rush on a Saturday evening so you already know it's packed. However, it did not take too long for us to get our order. We ordered the Q Mochi & Caramel Pudding combo. The portion was unexpectedly large, we couldn't even finish it! And it was only $6! It was a great combination of shaved ice, almond pudding, caramel pudding, taro balls, and vanilla ice cream. I would definitely recommend this! read more

MEET FRESH IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. I crave this place all the time. Not only is the boba good but the shaved ice is one of my favorite desserts of all time. I come here literally all the time when I'm in Houston, so I can say that it's extremely consistent. Jasmine green milk tea with taro balls is my classic order. If I want shaved ice, I get the make your own with lychee jelly, condensed milk, taro, ice cream, red bean.... their ice cream is actually so good LOL. Love this place! read more

I specifically said NO taro balls and both the red bean soups were FULL of taro balls and barely any red bean soup. To the point that the container could not close but they didn't bother to try fitting the mini bowl into one of the many takeout containers or bigger bowl. Contents spilled in my car because as the girl told me - oh the lid doesn't fit. The drink and food were otherwise good but service left a lot to be desired. read more

Coming from Taiwan, Meet Fresh didn't disappoint. I got the Q Mochi Milk Shaved Ice. It comes infused with condensed milk and topped with a scoop of ice cream that melts into the ice over time. It's definitely on the sweeter side, but you can ask them to go lighter on the condensed milk if you prefer. The mini taro balls were my favorite part- squishy and so chewy. The portion is huge and easy to share with 5+ people. The space is clean, good ac, and parking is usually manageable unless it's peak hours. Compared to other dessert spots around Bellaire, this one stands out for quality and cleanliness. You can also refill the shaved ice for free!! which is a nice touch if you're eating it slowly. read more

pretty authentic taiwanese desserts here! this is one of the only places you can get sweet potato and taro balls in brown sugar shaced ice! Came here with my family for my mom's birthday ~ got grass jelly slush, brown sugar milk tea, & ice taro ball signature!! every single thing we ordered tasted amazing. 10/10 would come back to this location, parking is a bit limited since it's in a smaller plaza. the store is extremely well kept and clean. service was great too, lots of menus and pictures posted around the store so you can order and see what you're getting. a bit pricey compared to if you were to buy in taiwan and other shaved ice stores but not that many asian shaved ice places sell these types of desserts so i would still pay this price for the dessert! read more

Stuff is extremely rude and will snatch things out of ur hand ignore you and roll their eyes. The spot isn't rlly the best. The food isn't even decent and with the way the staff act u could lose ur appetite quicker than u get your food.

My recent experience at Meet Fresh left me with mixed feelings. The service was quick considering how busy it was, but when we received our order of mango berry shaved ice, we quickly realized that it was not made well. It looked beautiful; however, the ice was very melted, almost soupy in consistency, even though we had just received it. The fruit was very fresh and tasty, but the shaved ice was so melted that we could not even finish the dessert without straight up drinking it. Unfortunately, I would not order shaved ice from here again unless they made some significant changes. We also ordered the original egg waffle. Now, this treat was quite tasty. It was a fun, light dessert great for sharing! My friend ordered the winter melon tea, and he was very pleased. This is one of his favorite drinks, and Meet Fresh made it very well with a cute top smiling back at you as you drink! Again, my experience at Meet Fresh was a mixed one. I would return for the egg waffles and drinks, but definitely not the shaved ice. read more

We Went specifically to get the Thai milk tea shaven ice, and it did not disappoint. First off, the portion size is huge. Even with three people sharing, we could not finish it. They also gave a good amount of toppings, so you aren't just eating mouthfuls of ice. Honestly, the toppings were the best part. The shaved ice itself wasn't too flavorful, with most of the Thai tea flavor came from the orange "sauce" over it. It was still delicious but I prefer a stronger Thai tea flavor. This was a nice refreshing dessert that I would recommend. read more

Meet Fresh is well known for their taro balls. They are soft and chewy, with good amount of filling inside. I decided to end my day with desserts and drinks from Meet Fresh. I got the Q-mochi and pudding milk shaved ice, grass jelly milk tea, and purple rice milk tea. I got 5 potaro balls free as they currently having promotion: spend $15 and get 5 potaro balls for free. The shaved ice was the perfect dessert to have on warm weather. The puddings were soft and silky. Delicious. There were jelly noodles in the bowl too, which were great for texture contrast. The mochi was ok. They were a little hard. The ice cream on top was a nice touch to the dessert, just something extra. The milk teas were just ok, nothing extraordinary. Meet Fresh is a place for big groups because of their big portions. Their shaved ice, grass jelly bowls, or purple rice desserts, are the "main dishes", milk teas are the "side dishes". read more

Located in the much overrated plaza in Chinatown with terrible parking. It's a parked lot with some of the most terrible driving that you will see. It's also one of the better spots on that new strip. Taiwanese style dessert spot focusing on taro, kochi, grass jelly, and the sorts. Overpriced? Yes it is, but all date spots and dessert spots are so pick your poison. Instagram friendly? Depends on what you get. Interior is pretty clean and has seating for decently sized groups. We liked the red bean shaved ice; the ice cream was not needed but everything else was pretty good to eat as a shared dessert and hang out for a while. read more

I might be biased here, but this place is great! Meet fresh is a chain with locations across the US and Asia. The menu includes drinks, shaved ice and hot grass jelly desserts. Very authentic Taiwanese desserts. If I see a Meet Fresh when I travel, I usually stop by. The Houston location is solid, and they had two of my favorites: fluffy grass jelly slush and winter melon tea. The grass jelly slush is sort of like getting their grass jelly ice dessert and sticking it in a to-go cup. Portable deliciousness. My experience was pretty much grab and go. Service was friendly and quick, and drinks came out quickly too. read more
