SO CUTE! My daughter and I stopped in earlier today after going to a nearby park. A+ on the free and covered parking! It's a weekday and there were only a couple open spots, I'd imagine on weekends it may be hard to come by with a free spot in their lower or upper parking lot. As other reviewed have said, their space is small, with only four high top stools. But for us today, it was fine. Our main interest was the ice cream and characters! They're adorable! They have so many options too. They were sold out of a few of the characters, so make sure to level set expectations for a little one beforehand. Not only is it cute but their ice cream itself is delicious too! They have an extensive menu but we only ordered ice cream. The staff is really nice as well. read more

Fun little stop while while checking out the area. There was only 4 seats indoors and the shop stayed busy. We picked up some fun ice cream cones with faces on them and the lids loved it. We would stop back if around again! read more

This bubble tea place is outside of the typical Chinatown square, so it's never very busy, but sometimes parking is more difficult. Usually there are spots right outside. They have awesome bubble tea and lots of great jelly options, including good lychee jelly. Their bubble waffles are also very good, and they serve ice cream, cotton candy, and have several cute toy vending machines. read more

3.5 We were lured in by the Instagram videos. We had the waffle eggs with chocolate and gelato. It was fine but not anything I'd go out of my way for unless you really want a cartoon face on your gelato. read more

Saw this place on social media. Since I was in the area with my mini me, I thought I'd give it a try. The smells of fresh waffle cones hit my nose first. They have some cute vending machines to keep the little ones intersThey have all these adorable characters you can dress your ice cream cone with, it's edible too. My mini me got the cookies and cream with Kuromi & I opted for the pistachio bubble waffle. The place is small and a bit crowded, but the service was friendly. They made my bubble waffle fresh. Everything was delightful and delicious. I will be back! read more

I haven't tried any of their foods, but I have gotten a few of their drinks. The mango sago is definitely a must get since it tastes like a mango smoothie with mango chunks, jelly, and sago. The service is top notch! They're super friendly there and always have a smile on their face. The ambiance is very nice but small. There's very limited seating, but I like how they have a kiosk to order. There's even a cotton candy machine and gachapon machine with toys. read more

After researching different foods ParTea was on my list to grab a sweet treat from. I really wanted to try the little eggs filled with chocolate (you can pick different fillings). Unfortunately, we eat too much at lunch didn't have a room for any more sweets. The staff was so sweet and the restaurant was clean. ParTea is still on my list! read more

Came here to get dessert. We tried their gelato on a cone shaped like Pikachu and Mymelody. Also got their egg shaped waffle filled red bean and taro. Gelato was tasty and the egg waffle was delicious. I surprised the taro was a whole piece of taro! I thought it was going to be taro paste. Pleasantly surprised. The service was friendly and they answered all our questions. If you ordered their version Egg waffle, be patient as it takes them a while to cook it. Small little space with 5 stools by the window to sit on. Definitely worth a stop if you want something fun and cute to try! read more

1st timers for quickie delicious dessert! Cutest little place! Menus all over inside & out! English & Chinese speaking staff were very polite & friendly! Be aware that when we went, it's really warm inside. It was much more comfortable outside in the mid 70's around 9pm! read more

Another 4.5 review. The zoo ice cream is so absolutely adorable. So so cute. However, they do not have all of them in stock because they run out of absolutely adorable little animal ears. I was disappointed they did not have passionfruit gelato because that's what I wanted. However, the mango gelato was delicious. The little egg things are so cute and it's so hard to eat because they're so cute. They are delicious. The cotton candy machine needed to be turned on. And then when it warmed up, it also needed sticks. It was super crowded with a lot of people behind us so I was unable to get cotton candy. My son tried to Oreo mixed drink thing and I do not like the crystal pulpa. He did not like to drink. I think he wanted a milkshake. I think it was an expectation thing. I don't know if I want to drink gelato and the egg things are so good. read more

I've tried classic milk tea and Rose Passion Fruit Jasmine Green Tea Yakult. Friend got the Pikachu Mango "gelato". Classic milk tea has an indescribable taste that is definitely not the traditional Taiwanese black milk tea taste. Rose Passion Fruit Jasmine Green Tea Yakult only tastes like passion fruit juice with a hint of tea bitterness but could not distinctly taste green tea. The Pikachu Mango gelato is not gelato. More like a sorbet. But it doesn't taste bad and is a fun treat for the kids. No issues with service. Employees could be a little more positive or enthusiastic. read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon with my wife, daughter, and our friend after lunch. There were only a couple of other customers when we came in, but it got busier with a few more families coming in later. There were two employees working and they were both very nice. One of the customers that came in seemed to be a regular since one of the employees greeted him and they were pretty friendly with each other, and the employee asked if he wanted his usual drink. I always enjoy seeing interactions like that! The space is pretty small but clean and on the corner of a mall/plaza area. No tables but have some counter space with seats along the windows. They don't have a bathroom in the store, so if you need to use one they give you a code (two codes if you're using the women's restroom) to be used inside the plaza next door. Bathrooms are on the second floor at the end of a long hallway, so if you do need to go hopefully it's not an emergency, haha. We got a Pikachu mango gelato for our daughter, I got an Avocado Yogurt With Crystal Boba, my wife got a Jasmine Green Tea Latte, and our friend got a Rose Passion Fruit Jasmine Green Tea Yakult. The crystal boba in mine was good and chewy, however we all agreed that our drinks were lacking flavor. My drink drink in particular tasted more like yogurt with a hint of avocado. The Pikachu gelato was cute and our daughter really enjoyed it. We had the option of using passion fruit or mango. We chose mango, but other pictures here show that you can apparently choose any flavor you want. And of course I had to try some as part of the Dad Tax. Flavor was decent but a bit artificial tasting. The texture was also a little icy and reminded me more of a sorbet even though it's advertised as gelato. But they include a little barrier at the top of the cone to help decrease the chance of a dripping mess, which I thought was considerate of them (but make sure your kid doesn't tip the cone over otherwise the gelato scoop will fall off...luckily I saved it before it completely fell). Overall, this seems like a great place if you have kids and want to treat them to something fun and unique like the animal gelato. I didn't try them this time but they also have waffles that they serve as either the standard bubble waffle or in the shape of actual eggs with smiley faces, which I also think is unique and fun. I'm always willing to give places a second chance so I'll try the waffles and a different drink next time to see how it is. read more

Tiny sweets place with super cute character selections for ice cream. I chose Kirby and it had fresh strawberries within the ice cream but it was a little difficult to eat since they were big slices. The chocolate decor on it was also flavored too! I also got all the flavors for the egg waffles. Personally I enjoyed the Taro and Red Bean flavors. Heads up this place isn't big so the only seating area is the chairs on the high table against the window. read more

Waffles here were so good! And reasonable too! Service is also so nice! It's a small place and they have some cute vending options too!

What a cute place; perfect for getting ice cream and going for a walk afterwards. The chocolate ice cream was very rich and yummy! Not overly sweet - which is my preference. The vanilla Pikachu was delicate. We ended up getting these adorable waffle eggs! Two plain and two with chocolate! Very creative! The service was great, nice people who seem to like working there! read more

We've been waiting for this place to open, and when they finally open, we just couldn't wait. It was cold, but we don't care Price - Like any other bubble tea place. So please don't complain. The place itself is small. There are only a couple of high seats, so I don't think people are meant to stick around there, which kinda a shame, but I am not one to stick anyway. The owners (I am assuming they are) are pretty nice. They keep apologizing for taking too long to give us our order, but we have a lot of stuff; ice creams, bubble teas, and bubble waffles. The taste. I'm not going to lie. I like it. I, myself, had the meteorite raw coconut latte, man, that was good! My husband had the matcha milk with red bean. He said that the place is not cheap with the matcha My kids got the ice cream. They all said good. The bubble was also good. Definitely will come back here again soon. All they need is social media now. So that people can look them up read more

We went today after wanting to go for a while because the name just sounds SO fun and I kind of wish we had gone to our favorite boba spot instead (Te Amo; just down the street). Some pros: lots of free parking in the dedicated garage for this shopping plaza and centrally located. Cons: the shop inside was small, and can't fit more than one family sitting down at a time. It was really warm in the shop, and there's not really anyplace outside to enjoy it so it's really a grab and go spot. We ordered the taro milk tea with boba. The boba was great, and the flavor of the tea was great, but there was a weird, chalky texture and weird almost chunks (?) where the drink needed to be better blended that I just couldn't ignore and ruined the drink for me. I can't say I'd go back - there are so many other fantastic boba shops in the area at exactly the same price. read more

This bubble tea shop is amazing! The drinks are always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The boba has the perfect chewy texture, and they offer a great variety of flavors to choose from. read more

We were eating lunch in Chinatown so we decided to check out ParTea since it was nearby. It's a small shop with four bar style seats around the window. I had the jasmine green milk tea and hubby had the avocado yogurt with crystal jelly smoothie. We ordered a Pikachu (mango flavor) ice cream for our toddler. Both of our drinks were bland and flavorless. I could only taste milk in my milk tea actually. I couldn't taste the avocado in hubby's avocado yogurt smoothie and mostly tasted just the crystal jelly. Our toddler seemed happy with her ice cream but then again she has never complained about ice cream in general. read more
