Tea Era

After lunch we were craving a refreshing drink. We saw Tea Era in the same shopping center. We…read moredecided to try it out. When we walked in there were a few tables with customers. They have digital menus above the kiosk where you order. Besides drinks, they also offer Taiwanese food and snacks. I decided to try the Tropical Trio ($5.75) which had kumquat, pineapple and strawberry in it. My hubby ordered the coconut smoothie ($6.00). There was one employee working and I asked her if she could make the drinks a little less sweet. She said she would. We looked for a place to sit and wait for our drinks. There is a large seating area inside. Our drinks were ready in 5 minutes. Both were good. They were very refreshing and hit the spot. I'm happy to know that there is a good tea shop in this area. I'll be back again.

Ordered the Lychee Misty (50% sweet). The tea was very bitter. Didn't really taste the lychee, it was a small hint and a very strong Chrysanthemum tea taste. I know I got 50% sweet, but the tea was so bitter and left like a weird after coating and I couldn't get myself to continue drinking the tea. Possibly other drinks taste better and maybe the foods as well, that I didn't try.

Check review below this one. First off this burger is the best burger in south San Jose. Hands down. Patties are thicker than In and out, seasoning on sauce is great. I left full because of how legit the patties are. For reference I order two 3x3 and 2 fries to fill full at In & out. Wait time was 6 min to get my food with zero wait. There is one cook and one person taking orders currently. It is 730pm currently I know for a fact at the other burger spot down the road I would have waited 20 min minimum, plus standing in line. I got to enjoy my food in peace and quiet. This place is a hidden gem. If you actually know what a legit burger taste like you will enjoy this place.

Stopped by the Chipotle on Cottle Rd for a quick meal. The food itself wasn't the issue --…read moreeverything tasted as expected and was prepared correctly. But the cleanliness of the dining and serving area was questionable, and that really overshadowed the visit. Counters and tables had crumbs, dried food bits, and old stains that clearly hadn't been wiped down in a while. When you're serving fresh food assembly‑line style, the prep area and dining space should look clean and maintained, especially during busy hours. It wasn't a deal‑breaker for the food, but it definitely made the overall experience feel less cared for than it should be. Bottom line: Good food, but the store needs to step up its cleaning routine to match the quality of what they serve.

DO NOT COME HERE…read more customer service awful. food quality awful. (as you can tell from the man that found dirt in his lettuce). if you come here, expect to wait 30 mins to ONE HOUR for your food. this has happened to me several times on occasions where i ordered on the app and when i ordered in person. my order is consistently incorrect and little to no remorse is shown by the workers. they just don't care! this location used to be my go-to, but after several negative experiences, i don't see myself ever going back. :(

Maybe it's self serve?

They're always generous with the fries so a small order is definitely enough for 2 people. People complain that it's bland but I actually like it -- not overly sauced or salted. It's healthier. Easy to order online and have it ready for pick up. One time, they didn't package it well and the sauce leaked. They were good about giving us a refund for the mess. Never crowded, plenty of space to sit and eat. The parking is a bit more crowded due to all of the stores in the plaza. Located in the same plaza as Starbucks and Chipotle and Marshalls.

They have nice outdoor seating that was clean and there was plenty of space. As always Five Guys fries quantity is huge that can be shared easily. This five guys is located in a plaza that has lots of other businesses so parking could get tricky so you might get a parking spot away from the store. Overall a nice spot to get some delicious fries and enjoy it outdoors.

Be careful about going some Friday nights as there are many schools around so after football games there are SO many highschoolers and their families that come to this location. I've noticed the demographic of each In-N-Out is different on Friday nights. I travel a lot and have been to all locations on Friday and Saturday nights and this one has had the best service. Their workers are all relatively young but probably the most hardworking out of all the locations. Usually large crowds of people but it goes by a lot quicker than expected. What I enjoyed the most about the workers here is that they actually offer to wipe down your table promptly and have someone on stand by monitoring the table status. The other locations service does not compare to this location. I ordered the classic 4x0 and had two flying Dutchman's, but I prefer to eat everything with no cheese and the quality of their ingredients are the best out of all the locations. Don't forget to toast your buns!
