Service was friendly and they were quick to take our orders. The decor was part bakery part Asian restaurant- eclectic but also welcoming and homey. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The beef skewers were hot of the grill. The cold papaya salad was a lovely contrast to the warm savory beef. The other girls loved their sandwiches as well. The turkey sandwich had a "great cheese pull". The kettle chips that came with the sandwiches were also really good. The strawberry bubble tea was a thin smoothie like texture and tasted great on such a warm day!

The woman working was genuinely friendly, and it felt like this may have just been an off day. I'd…read morebe open to giving them another shot for lunch or dinner. Unfortunately, breakfast was a miss. I ordered the banh mi, which was described as coming with the usual vegetables like cucumber, papaya, and carrots. None of those were included. It was just meat, cilantro, and peppers. If I had known the vegetables were unavailable, I would have ordered something else. That kind of heads-up matters. We also picked up donuts expecting them to be fresh, but they clearly were not. Friendly service only goes so far. The experience itself just didn't deliver. Our total bill for coffees, donuts and sandwiches was over $40 with tips (which I paid at point of purchase).

They were quick to greet us, seat us, and attentive throughout our stay. Four rolls and an order of crab rangoon (6). $40 and change before tip. The same in the Des Moines metro would be $60ish. A very nice find while on the road. Pro tip though... When they say spicy they mean spicy. No need to add extra wasabi because you assume it's going to be "Iowa hot."

There is plenty of street parking out front and around the building. We were greeted right away when we walked! The gentleman that helped us was so friendly! The service here was personable and gave small town vibes! So sweet! I would come back based solely on the service! I got a strawberry bubble tea and doughnut! Both were absolutely DELICIOUS!! I have tried tons of bubble tea places in the cities and this gives them all a run for their money! It was perfectly sweet and creamy! The pearls were also the PERFECT consistency. The doughnut was fluffy and fresh tasting! The frosting was also very tasty and was not overwhelming! I will definitely be back when I am in the area!!

Getting any form of pearls in your drink is an up-charge to a drink that is already pretty overpriced, especially for how bad it tastes. My friends and I all had different drinks and all had to toss them after a few sips because they made us feel sick (something we've not experienced with any other bob stores). The service was admittedly fast, but that's really the only thing going for this place. I really hope that they can manage to improve, but unfortunately I'm not sure that they're going to be able to last for long.

The tea was wonderful and the donut was to die for. They make the donut fresh right when you order it so it comes out nice and warm and melts in your mouth.
