Kumquat Green Tea and Passionfruit Tea
Tanni D.

As someone who tried hundreds of bubble tea in more than a dozen states and 10 countries, including Taiwan, Thailand, and Singapore, this shop by far had the worst boba drinks, especially the fruit teas. I took about 2-3 sips of the Passionfruit Tea ($5.75) and requested to change my drink to a plain coffee because the tea had an aftertaste of beetle nuts, but I was denied. This is very uncommon. My sisters had the Winter Melon Lime Tea - which tasted like expired bitter black tea - and the Kumquat Green Tea - which was so gross that I had to spit it out after I took a single sip; I can't even explain the flavor. I wasted $27 here. I expected quality due to the high prices and the positive ratings people gave this place on Yelp. Maybe the ratings were mainly referring to the pastries, which we did not try. I'm rating this shop on their fruit teas, and I highly do not recommend ordering drinks from here. Please note that the space is also small and there are minimal stools to sit on.

Come around noon for the best selection, but order ahead if you don't want to wait in line. My daughter likes the pig shaped bread the best, their bubble tea is hit or miss.

I stopped in about an hour before they closed and they still had quite a bit left. I tried the strawberry cream cake and a variety of buns. I liked the chocolate melon, chocolate croissant, egg tart, moose with blueberry cream cheese, piggy bun with strawberry filling, and almond rock. The cream cheese bun, Doraemon, and cream pan are my favorites. I did not love the taro bun, crab bun with chocolate cream filling, or melon pan (ok but bland/plain.)

Anpanman bread

Such a cute, small pastry shop in Novi. It is in a plaza that isn't too busy so parking will never be an issue. The good stuff run out kind of fast so that's a bummer...be sure to go right when they open or at least before 1pm! Pastries taste pretty good, I like the ones with sausage and cheese in them. They also have this bread filled with noodles which was an interesting taste and experience. Probably won't get it again but it was a good try lol. Didn't give 5 stars as the pastry selection isn't a lot & the good ones go fast. But the cute Anpanman bread is a winner from my toddler.

I visited this place twice now and have enjoyed coming here for their nice selection of freshly made pastries, bubble teas and desserts! It's in a strip mall called McLaughlin center and located on grand river road. I ended up trying the coconut and almond bread roll (so good), you could really taste the coconut and almond flavor and this was delicious. I also like their twist donut which is simply a donut with sugar on top but I like how light the bread was! I also got a custard vanilla roll and a chocolate chip roll. I feel like I'd have preferred the chocolate chip roll to have mini chips in it versus full size but it was still good. I also tried the taro tea here which comes in a good size portion and enjoyed it! I'm not sure why the negative reviews, I'm an occasional bubble tea drinker and liked the tea I got. There is very limited seating inside so this is not the best place to sit at unfortunately so knocking off a star plus this place is closed during some weekdays so make sure they are open before you head over. Would love to see outside seating added to be able to enjoy this place more!

Moose Pastry & Tea is the only Japanese-style bakery* in Metro Detroit that serves many of the classic buns you'd typically find in Japan. I believe the owners are actually Taiwanese and you can see a bit of Taiwanese influence - for example, there's a bit more egg wash on some of the buns, and they also offer almond cookies and taro buns. In any case, everything is always consistently delicious. We always stop by when we're in the area. On the last trip, we bought: Taro Mochi Bun ($2.80) - This has some very lightly sweetened taro paste on top of a small mochi disk in a fluffy bun topped with almonds. Wish there was a bit more mochi inside! QQ Machi ($2.85) - This might be a special bake? It was on a hand written sign. Probably my favorite item I've bought at Moose - chewy mochi-like texture throughout with chocolate chips studded in and a bit of a bitter grassy taste from matcha powder. Curry Pan ($2.70) - Not a lot of filling, quite mild curry with vegetables. Be sure to toast this one - it improves the crust tremendously. Black Milk Tea, Large, Half Sugar ($5) - The tea taste really comes through in this drink, with a bit of a tart astringency from the black tea. Half sweet is good. Moose really fills the drink to the brim without ice as filler - I got regular ice and when I received the drink, there were no ice chunks at all. The boba is just slightly firmer than I prefer, but good overall. I definitely recommend stopping by to pick up some bread. *There is technically another bakery in Clawson that has Japanese-style baked goods, but the focus and offerings there are decidedly different.

They sell out quick most days but if you can get there you'll have a great selection of delicious, fluffy buns filled with a myriad of delights like red beans, custard, cream, , coconut, fruits like strawberry and melon, matcha, etc. Plus savories like garlic bacon, hot dogs, seaweed pork, etc. And they're all SO beautiful. The animal shaped ones are particularly fun (kids will love them!). They also have amazing cream cakes. My favorites being the strawberry cream and chocolate. And the eclairs are also excellent! I haven't tried them but they do offer bubble teas in a bunch of flavors (fruit and milk teas), tea lattes, and a few espresso based drinks like lattes. Not a place to sit and stay but for carryout it's perfect!

Pretty popular Japanese bakery in Novi. Probably the only bakery in Novi now I am thinking about it. I think the bread/bun is mid. Not that special. They do have a lot of varieties but I think the texture can be softer. Nothing that really memorable to write about.

Enjoyable bubble tea.

The third time's the charm. I had wanted to try the Japanese-styled buns from this shop these last two years. The first time, during the pandemic, the shop was only open for pick-up with orders placed online. However, I was unfamiliar with the menu and the short descriptions were insufficient. The second time, most items were sold out - they were only serving beverages. So this third time, both buns, pastries, and beverages were available. The previous bakery, Happy Hippo, arranged their items on trays and customers served themselves. At Moose Pastry, the items were also arranged on trays, but in plastic bags for quick grab-and-go. I picked a sugar-coated twist doughnut, a bun studded with red-wine-soaked raisins, and two other buns. All of them were lightly sweetened and incredibly soft. I enjoyed them and the boba tea, one of the many varieties offered, that I purchased. Service was efficient.

Oolong Milk Tea
Christian C.

A nice bakery and tea shop in Novi. If you drive by you'll probably miss it as it's tucked away in a strip mall. You'll have to order online and pick up your items due to the pandemic, but that has which makes things quicker. I like to try to the mango mousse cake whenever it's available and it's delicious + who doesn't like mango! I want to try out more teas but my go to is the Oolong milk tea! I feel as though it's not for everyone, but it tastes delicious to me and they make it just right! The Taro tea is a great one as well. The parking lot is huge and it never seems too busy so you should be able to hop right in and out! Great spot!

Takoyaki
Manny L.

Delicious freshly made buns. I got the Takoyaki bun, which has the consistency of a warm Hawaiian roll and a sweet and savory taste. Super tasty, 9/10. I also got a sweet roll, a matcha red bean bun. It was the perfect balance of sweetness, not overwhelming sweet. Light on the matcha flavor. Again served on the luscious Hawaiian roll consistency. 10/10. The service was fast and friendly, and the inside had a nice seating area to enjoy the rolls. Fairly laidback environment, would highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area!

Sarah C.

Feeling very lucky to have this gem near our home. The line looks long but it goes quick. The staff is fast but patient explaining what all the goodies are. Their teas are the best in town hands down. Would highly recommend you stop by this place after grabbing lunch at Ajishin in the same plaza.

Stopped here on a Friday about an hour after they opened I knew better then to come late. Places like this the good stuff goes quick! I love that they have sanitizer right before you walk in to grab a tray. After much debate of buying one of everything I choose, Hokkaido cheese bun, matcha red bean bun, honey walnut bun, doraemon, and a curry bread. Everything was delicious, I need more of the Hokkaido cheese buns tho it's so so light and yummy! For all of these it came to $15 and some change!

This Asian market in Novi just keeps getting better and better! I've visited several times since…read morethey opened, and each time I'm impressed by the growing selection of retail items and all the new additions. The café is very tasty, and their menu has continued to expand with even more choices. There's a great selection of snacks, frozen goodies, specialty items, and I absolutely love the new in-store ramen cooking experience--such a fun addition! They also have an impressive variety of kitchen and cooking items. I recently purchased a new rice cooker because the one I had at home had definitely seen better days. It was so convenient to have a store close by with a nice selection of quality rice cookers to choose from. The service has always been kind, friendly, and welcoming. I also really enjoy the bright, clean atmosphere--it makes shopping here such a pleasant experience. It's wonderful to have a store like this in Novi, and I love seeing how much they continue to grow and improve. Every visit seems to bring something new to discover, and it truly keeps getting better and better!

The location was rather obscure as it wasn't right at the corner of a major intersection. As I was coming north on Meadowbrook Rd, I drove right past the driveway because I wasn't expecting it to be that far south of 10 Mile Rd. The structure had a drive through window, but it wasn't currently being used. The parking lot was huge with spaces in front of and to the west of the building. The main entrance brought you into the market, however if you kept walking towards the back, it will lead you to OneZo Cafe. We don't have this boba tea chain in my hometown as you have to drive north to OC for the nearest branch. What struck me about this cafe was how roomy the space was. The tables and sofas were placed well apart from each other. More furniture could easily have been added without crowding the area. It's the largest seating capacity I have encountered for such a business and is a great place to do work. My feedback will be strictly for the beverages I ordered from OneZo Cafe. I did not spend time perusing the shelves of merchandise at Hers Zakka Market. A self-service kiosk was to the right of the service counter. I chose two drinks from the Creative Mix section of the menu. The first was a Peach Oolong Tea with Popping Boba. The second was a Grape Green Tea Crush with Aloe Jelly. The cashier informed me that the popping boba variety was unavailable so I made a substitution with regular boba which I preferred anyway. The oolong tea flavor was noticeable and not overshadowed by the fruitiness of the peach. The pearls had a soft chewiness to them. Not many spots offer grape as a flavor for their fruit teas. Whenever I see grape on the menu, it's usually one of my picks. The liquid was purple in color and not too sweet. The aloe jelly was alright but not as good as the pearls. Meal sets, onigiri, karaage, and curry rice were just some of the savory food offerings on the menu. Desserts like egg waffles, cream puffs, and tiramisu were also available. The next time I am in town, I will have to make a return visit and sample some of these items. OneZo Cafe is not a highly visible business, yet I think it's underrated for what it delivers. I gave a 4.5 star rating for my initial experience.

They had stationery (e.g. notebooks and cards), Japanese and Korean makeup, a lot of gachapon machines, and other anime merchandise. We had a nice time browsing! The makeup section was a nice surprise. The gachapon is a bit expensive (1 token is like $2 and the machines require like 4 or 5 tokens depending on the toy) but I don't know the going rate for gachapon so maybe that's standard pricing? The drinks area is at the back of the store and there is ample seating to the side. The employee was friendly. I ordered a milk tea which was pleasant, not the best I've had but the price was very reasonable. The tapioca was interesting, irregularly shaped and chewy, and the core was a bit harder than the rest of it. My friend enjoyed her matcha. I can see this being a nice place to bring your sushi/bento from One World Market next door, grab a drink, and hang out!

There is a make your own ramen station so much packed into a tiny spot. But the person working here was really not overly friendly to us. He was certainly friendly to others and his friend who came it, but lukewarm at best if not a tab bit rude to us. Funny, though, there were four of us and we all purchased something. Two of us got the bubble tea. This is not the first Mochinut we have been to, and the tea is super cute in a can, but ensures you get less product (plus way too much ice) for the price. Really, there are better bubble tea places out there for better value. One got a donut. And others have said, while it was good, not as fresh as it could have been. Does that mean they are not moving the product? The other mochinut in Troy and Mochidough in Troy both move a lot of product, donuts taste fresher. We also got some viral ice creams. We got the chicken burger and the mini fruits. Those were both amazing, but not made by the shop. just sold here. Plus the ice cream was so super overpriced, I can get them both for a fraction of the price, but since we were here and it was on my list, I bought them anyway. I am not saying I am not coming, back, but I can buy these corndogs at the grocery store, and get a friendlier service and more value elsewhere, so this could be a one and done for me.

Our shopping went quickly and we had some time to kill and a quick google search revealed that there was a well-reviewed boba shop inside! Now, even with Google Maps and the help of the map inside the mall, we had some trouble finding Sweeting. It's not in the main / largest food court. However, once we finally found it, we were golden! They have a very small dining area (maybe 2-3 tables) and you can order at one of two kiosks or at the counter. We placed an order at the kiosk and found it very easy to maneuver. They have a small but tasty sounding food menu too, but we kept it to drinks having just eaten lunch. Our orders came out reasonably fast. We got a peach black tea with lychee and the tiramisu milk tea with coffee jelly. Both were yummy! The jelly textures were really great. I preferred the tiramisu -- it was sweet and a great dessert. The peach was good too, but something about the peach flavor was just a tad too artificial for me. We still enjoyed it, just the tiramisu was our preference! Would recommend for a quick boba fix! :)

What stood out is the prices for pretty much everything are quite high. Individual items started about four dollars so, if you decide to get a bunch of stuff, it would be cost prohibitive. The person at the counter was pleasant enough. I noticed that the person working was the only one who was customer facing. I did not see any other employees. This can become an issue when that particular one person is making a coffee drink for somebody and it does take a long time to get back to the people in line. That is no fault of that person at all and I understand. Overall, the experience was decent. I will probably give them another try in the near future just to try other items.
