I've always loved Mr Sun's boba drinks, though it was my first time at this store location. My drink (mango tea with mango boba) was as expected -- delicious and 'hit the spot' on the hot day -- but there was no welcome, even with no customers inside, and poor signage as to where to pickup orders. The parking was no bueno. I missed the parking structure because it looked like a residential lot, so I parked at a 15-min takeout zone behind a restaurant, which felt like a far walk in the hot sun. (Sun... get it?!!) Inside was disorderly, but there were things to look at, which was fun: a shelf of toys, a game that looked defunct, and lots of menus and promo signs. I walked all the way to the other end of the store in search of the drink pick-up area to no avail. There was a tiny handwritten note (it was like a scavenger hunt) taped to the counter that said to go to ordering area for drink pickups. I then walked back to the middle of the store to retrieve my drink. What would have been nice is if the employees had greeted me, since I was THE ONLY CUSTOMER in the store, and then they could have directed me or just given me my drink so I didn't have to hunt for it. Also the prices are pretty high (mostly ~$8 and up), but most drinks do NOT include toppings (boba, pudding, jelly). I do appreciate that you can customize sweetness and ice on non-smoothie drinks, but for the nonexistent customer service and inconvenient pickup, I think the price is too high. So it boils down to this: Drinks: 5 stars Customer service: 1 star Location/inconvenient parking: 3 stars Price: 3 stars

Mr. Sun's stashe aesthetic was really what inspired me to visit this shop on an absolutely hot day here in Mountain View. I was so ready for another boba drink and they delivered. The interior was quite large for a boba shop. There aren't a lot of tables but definitely standing areas where you can watch the outside world go by. If weather permits, you can enjoy your drink at a table outside the shop. Everything is ordered through the kiosk. However, there was no way to substitute or remove an item such as the boba cream for my drink, so I made sure to inform the staff once the order went through. I went with an Early Grey Milk Tea with Soy Milk, Boba, and less sugar. The drink was well blended and I could taste the tea over simply just sugar. I was happy they included non-dairy milk! Drinks came in compostable paper cups making it easier on the earth. Definitely would come back the next time I'm in the area.

First time at this location - used to frequent the Cupertino location until they closed down. Went on a warm Sunday and the crowd was pretty large. I almost didn't see the self-order kiosk so I think someone cut in front of me as I was getting my bearings! There was a posted menu when we walked in but it was a little tricky to find those items on the ordering kiosk. Prices were a bit on the high side but portion size is good. Had a VERY long wait, almost 40 minutes, which is terrible especially since it looked like orders placed after mine were ready first. There was no real organization with the pickup process. Cups were randomly placed on the counter and it was hard to see whose order was ready unless you peered at the small label on it. Orders with multiple cups were not always completed together. On a positive note, the worker who answered a promotion question I had was friendly even though the promotion had expired (note: they need to remove the sign!), and the drinks tasted good.

Positives: Love that they make their own boba - it is perfectly bouncy. Drink (Golden milk tea with boba) was tasty and at 50% plenty sweet. Plenty of indoor seating. Negatives: Disappointed that the handcrafted boba series doesn't include boba as a default (or so I was told) and I had to pay to add it. Also it was very slow yet they just let a number of unmade drinks stack up before making them (took almost 15 mins waiting before they started making the drinks) so it took over 20 mins to get it. Disappointed in the service.

Brown Sugar Boba with Fresh Milk
Amie N.

right when u walk in, ur greeted with flat screen tv's advertising their mission: low calorie, additive, fresher boba pearls made in house!! i def tasted that in each sip + the tea was rich, creamy, strong floral. MR SUN does not skimp when it comes to quality. my mom who likes things less sweet approved

Good location at the end of Castro street. Mango milk tea was good with cheese foam. Would come here again:

I've seen a few locations around and decided that I should try it out. I have been looking for different places with mango drinks and saw that they have a few on the menu. This Mountain View location is pretty spacious with a parking lot. It was a nice place to just hangout and chill. You order off kiosks so not much interaction with staff. Mr. Sun Mango W/ Mango Boba (2/5): This was way too sweet and the mango flavor tasted artificial. The syrup was probably too intense from the mango boba which I didn't enjoy that much either. Maybe I should've ordered a mango smoothie or something else. Not sure if it would have made a difference with the overpowering mango syrup taste. Overall it wasn't a pleasant drink experience.

I love it!!! I came here to try their handmade, low calorie boba with different boba flavors such as mango, strawberry, grape, etc. I got the rainbow milk tea which has a little bit of each boba flavor variation they offer. I would come back to try the unique menu items such as their heineken based green tea.

I like this place, especially their egg pancakes. However, this place is greatly understaffed. You can easily spend 30+ mins waiting to get your order. I think customers are quite upset. It's not worth it anymore.

As someone who has spent about a decade in food service/retail, I find it absolutely appalling when businesses have only ONE person on staff. And the one person on shift not even able to conduct refunds if necessary? A customer got upset over the wait and wanted a refund, but the young lady was not able to fulfill it without a manager. Most of the negative reviews for this location involve wait times. I waited a long time for a bowl, but the girl working was stuck by herself, trying to fulfill orders that took place before she even got there. Orders would also take ME forever if I was running back and forth to handle in person orders, and then start on their bowls, then have to deal with disgruntled door dashers, and then deal with more online order all alone, etc etc. People took out their frustrations on things that were beyond her control, (mind you, she had only been on the clock for about 20 minutes now) and as someone who has been in her position before, I truly felt for her. She did not deserve to feel overwhelmed and be mistreated because this business failed to properly staff their store. Considering this is a high volume area and that Vitality Bowls has over 100+ locations, seriously do better. Proper staffing allows for better customer service, more efficient flow and delivery of product, higher customer satisfaction, and higher employee retention.

We love the Domingo Mimosa Sour beer they carry (it's not available a lot of times) -- it used to be a repeat buy for us, every single visit! They have great vegetarian options -- the barley soup and the mushroom caramelized onion pizza are so good. We're always a fan of their vegan chocolate cake, and the croissants are good too. There's also a wide variety of cheeses, which I really like (some days you can try those as well before buying). Their desserts are consistently good -- I once picked up assorted tarts and they were delicious, our friends liked it too! The garlic ricotta pizza slice looked pretty appetizing, but it was a bit too salty for my taste (I do not eat less salt in general). It's definitely not your regular grocery store -- everything is high quality, thoughtfully stocked, and yes, a bit on the pricier side, but most times we can tell the difference. The ambiance and cleanliness are always top-notch -- it is Whole Foods, after all. The staff is efficient and always available, at the Amazon returns section. Parking is usually easy with plenty of spots in the basement, unless you're lucky enough to grab one right outside at ground level.

Not a single person greeted us or offered assistance. It was an extremely disappointing first impression. Unfortunately, this appears to be an ongoing issue, as others have also experienced inattentive service and excessive wait times, even when the restaurant is nearly empty. There is absolutely no excuse for this level of customer service. If management expects customers to support their business, they need to take responsibility for properly training their staff and ensuring guests are treated with basic courtesy and respect. This establishment is an embarrassment in terms of hospitality, and I would never recommend it to anyone. I will not be returning. Save yourself the disappointment and consider visiting Casa Mia just up the street instead.

I've tried a few of their avocado drinks, and I have to say, they're super addictive. The Avocado Chia and Super Avocado were both delicious, reminding me of a creamy, sweet avocado yogurt smoothie. The oat popping boba is a nice alternative to regular boba and adds a great texture to the drink. I say it's a must add to your drink, trust me you won't regret it. I'd skip the Strawberry Dafuqin, though. It reminded me of strawberry milk with a bunch of toppings, and I didn't get much of the oolong tea flavor. My only complaints are the wait time and parking. They get tons of online orders, so drinks can take a while to prepare. Plan accordingly if you're stopping by! The plaza is also small, so parking can be a challenge. There are about 5-6 tables for dine-in, and you order through a kiosk, so there isn't much to say about the service. Overall, I hope they open another location closer to or in San Francisco!

We did have to wait maybe 15 minutes for our drinks due to so many online orders but I've had worse wait times. The parking lot is small but we were lucky to find a spot rather quickly when we went on an early weekday evening.
