The spot is just so quaint, and perfect for a beverage after shopping to you drop at the nearby TJ Maxx/Homegoods and Marshall's! Cheers, The Mocktail Madam

We stopped in to try the new place in town. We were going to Stop and Shop and noticed the sign…read more I got the Mango Passion fruit with green tea. It came with strawberry boba. I liked that they don't load it up with ice. I hate when they do that (looking at you Starbucks !). The taste was super light but it was refreshing and dairy free. Hubs got the coconut one and that was really good! It's mostly coconut which is great but they add evaporated milk which is why I went with the fruit tea. If they would make it dairy free I would be ALL OVER IT! The taste I had was super yummy. I am so happy to have a boba place near home and I hope they have great success!!! I think next time I'll talk to them about making that coconut drink completely dairy free, it was much better than what I ordered. The women at the counter were super nice and friendly. Their service is great. The shop is cute and super clean. I hope they get in some gifts and snacks. I also like to support local

Yoomi Tea is a solid strip mall bubble tea/ice cream joint. It's conveniently located in a big…read moreshopping center with ample parking. Unfortunately, they are located right across from a well established and well loved tea space. But, Yoomi serves a different purpose, I think. The space is very large - I think they can fit a lot more seating in there and maintain how comfortable it is. The shop is new, so there decor is minimal for now - I really hope they change it to give the space more character and a more inviting feeling. If they do, I can see this becoming a nice spot to hang out during lunch or after work with friends. I am a bit of a tea snob, so I'm being honest, I would actually give their tea a 3-star review. I asked for half sugar, less ice (my go-to) and my teas were still very sweet. The tea was not very strong, and one of my teas tasted too bitter, which is usually a sign of improper brewing. Overall I think their tea is more catered towards the sweeter, dessert side of the tea business, especially with the dessert waffles and ice cream. The extra star was really for the dessert. I tried their smores waffle, and that was actually really good. It wasn't an overload of sugar, and the waffle balanced out the sweet ingredients. The space is new, and there was only one person working the counter for my group of over a dozen, so everything took some time to come out. It was worth the wait, and they didn't give us a hard time about having a larger party sit there for over an hour. Hopefully they get more staff and spiff up the interior. I'd love to see more spots like this in the area.

Vassar students really seem to enjoy…read morethe international flavors offered here, as it's a good alternative to the bland food you find in the dining halls and elsewhere around town. I particularly enjoyed the Vassar noodle bowl, which featured chewy noodles in a coconut milk curry sauce (allegedly Malaysian, more Malaysian "inspired") with BBQ pulled pork on top!! I would never have thought to combine these two ingredients, but they work beautifully together. It's a very warm and comforting dish, and the mint, cilantro, and radish garnish helps provide a bit of contrast. I liked the sour cream drizzle on top, too. I feel like this dish could really be fantastic if they adjusted the thickness and amount of curry sauce (the noodles are swimming in it like a soup) and provided more herbs and radishes on top. It could also benefit from a crispy topping to provide textural contrast. I've had other things from here that I've liked, but that weren't anything special. Like the Malaysian curry, their chicken tikka masala sauce also has a very runny texture, instead of the thicker richer sauces I've had elsewhere. And their bao buns are honestly not worth buying, since they have no hoisin sauce or creamy aioli/slaw element that binds together the rather dry meat, pickle slices, and scallions in each bun. They seem to exclusively be a grab and go kind of place, which makes sense to me as it's in a college town. Inside it's small and rather bleak, without any kind of decoration and not much seating. They take a pretty long time to prepare orders too, so plan ahead in case you're in a hurry.

3.3/5 This place was…read morejust alright with fair prices. The tapioca balls were very mushy and bland. I got the sakura rose which had very little rose flavor and was a bit bland. The lavender was DELICIOUS! Super pleasant lavender and tea flavor that wasn't too sweet. The taro was a bit sweet but had a very pleasant earthy vanilla flavor. Overall i think the milk tea itself was relatively nice depending on what you get but the tapioca is not great at all.

A decent selection of drinks, macaroons and merch. Service was great, since before me was a mother and two kids bouncing around while placing orders and he was quick to make the drinks, plus for me when I asked about apple kiwi drink if more apple forward taste or kiwi he give his honest opinion so I was able to settle on strawberry lemon tea. Plus when I asked for only 15% sugar he said might be hard to keep drink at low on sugar but he try. I appreciate that since sometimes having a specific order earns you a sign, but the drink itself came out perfect sweet, but not overly sickly sweet. Definitely a great place to get something refreshing on these beyond humid summertimes

I was looking at the prices for the dim sum, it seemed expensive.

When you consider they're doing all the work it's really a bargain! It was one thing when we would take the D train down to Grand Street and walk a couple blocks and load up; now it's major operation. I'm so glad they are still around. The owners are always very accommodating and helpful.
