    Triple scoop Thai tea, ube, jasmine
    Quoc H.

    Parking: large parking lot with a bunch of spots Interior: well lit, clean, and a few tables for small groups or combine for medium size groups. Maybe only around 10ppl can be seated. Wait Time: Went after dinner on a weekend and there was no wait, but multiple groups came after us and it was packed. Service was amazing! Staff helped with samples and got our orders ready quick. Items Order: Triple scoop $8.50 - BRUH LOOK AT IT! That's 1.5pints. Each scoop is literally a large size cup which we had to get and divide up to take home. There are lids too but smoove really be serving the best scoops! 9.5/10 Ube - Ube flavor was very good. Strong and authentic flavor. Super smooth and creamy. Not sure why but Afters ube ice cream still is the best but this is a close second. It might be just missing a contrasting texture to change up the taste profile but still bomb ice cream. 10/10 Thai tea - FIRE! Flavor was so goood! Strong tea flavor, rich, creamy, smooth, and just sweet enough. 7.5/10 Jasmine - might be a tough rating because the ice cream is also good but I think after eating ube and Thai tea, this one couldn't compare. Jasmine flavor is on the lighter side

    Triple Scoop
    Jed O.

    One of the best ice cream shops I have been to! The flavors all taste very distinct, fresh, and not-too-sweet. On top of this, the serving is MASSIVE. Huge props to the ice cream staff that provided some of the best service I have experienced. The price is also very reasonable, if not cheap. An absolute must try if you are in the Milpitas area! 5/5 - Lychee Oolong/ Ube/ Cookies and Cream - Can't go wrong with any of these flavors. We got a triple scoop and regretted it because of how much the serving was. Nevertheless, I never got tired of eating it until I was full, because the flavor was so good. Of course, there's sugar, but it is not overwhelming! The lychee tasted floral and fruity, the ube tasted much more like the purple yam than sugary, and the cookies and cream was light.

    If you want your bang for your buck, come here. The scoops are so massive and reasonably priced for the unique flavors. I ordered fruity pebbles and it was pretty accurate, I just didn't care for the soggy/firm cereal pieces. Service is chill and the inside is cute. Plenty of seating options. Pet friendly patio, no non-dairy options.

    Food: my absolute favorite is the Ube flavor ice cream! Service: always so nice!! Even when they are packed with customers the guys helping out are so kind!! Atmosphere: varies but overall it a chill very aesthetic place. If you spend over a certain amount, you get a free keychain!!!! So cute!

    Great place to come for ice cream, smoothies, & boba. Not your traditional flavors; which makes it even more delicious and appealing. A must try! Portion size is big. Employees are super friendly. Cash not accepted

    We found this ice cream spot through Yelp and decided to check it out. Right before you walk in, there's a big display showing an ice cream float, which immediately caught our attention. The people working there were very kind and patient. We asked to try several different flavors, and they happily offered samples. Honestly, everything we tried was pretty good, which made it hard to choose. We ended up ordering two regular scoops and one scoop split into two minis. The regular scoops here are huge, so this was perfect for sharing. For the two regular scoops, we got ube and mango. For the split minis, we chose matcha and jasmine milk tea. All the flavors were so good and incredibly creamy. The ube was rich, the mango was refreshing, and both the matcha and jasmine milk tea had great flavor without being too sweet. Definitely a place we'll be back to!

    I love stopping by Smoove whenever I'm in Milpitas. Their ice cream scoops are very generous, and I like ordering the split scoop so I can get multiple flavors. My favorite ice cream flavors I've had so far are the tropical durian, Thai tea, and jasmine milk tea. Their matcha green tea flavor is on the milder side, and while the Cheetos flavor is tasty, I wish the cheese profile was a bit stronger. They have a handful of tables inside, and the staff let you sample the ice cream flavors if you ask. Their floats also look really good, so I'm hoping to try one of those next time I visit!

    Ice cream with lot of variety but the flavors aren't too good. I had the mango and earl grey tea ice cream, the flavors were not intense enough. Lychee white peach fruit tea was great, refreshing with some real fruits like blueberries, lychee and orange. They have weekday specials, croffle and drinks $12, seems like a good deal. Will be back soon to try their croffle

    Ube/Black Sesame and Tropical Durian/Peach Oolong
    Shih Fa K.

    I think this will be my go to ice cream shop in North San Jose/Milpitas from now on. We ordered double scoop of Ube/Black Sesame and a Durian/Peach Tea. I really enjoyed the black sesame, durian, and peach tea ice cream: the black sesame was just okay. The service was fast, and the proportions were phenomenal. The ambiance was simple and clean

    Ube and Jasmine Tea in 2 scoop cup

    "Smoooove" out of the way and get yourself these Asian inspired ice cream flavors to try! I've come to this ice cream place multiple times and each time i'm adventurous with what flavor i'm looking to try. Flavors i've tried: - Ube - Thai Tea - Jasmine tea - Fruity pebbles - Cookies n Cream - Mango ...and I have yet to try MORE haha The portion size of these scoops are like paramount! Be forewarned if you are going to get their "small size" it's enough.. or maybe not? But you know the portion size is well worth it because I would tell myself "Omg this is so good!" to "Ooh i still have more!" to "i can finish it or save jt later" hehe The workers are super friendly and allow you to sample as many flavors as you want with no judgement. They are even friendly with recommending flavors based on your "vibe" in the moment. So "Smoove" on over here and get your ice cream going on!

    Matcha green tea and earl grey tea. And summer pina coco and peach oolong

    We went to Smoove Ice Cream after a family lunch. I have never been there but heard a lot about the tea flavors so I decided to try it out. The service was nice, the workers were patient with us and let us sample all of the tea ice cream flavors without making us feel rushed at all. We ended up getting a split scoop with Earl Grey tea and Matcha green tea, and a double scoop with Summer Pina Coco and Peach Oolong tea. The portions were huge, we didn't expect that, but it's a happy surprise! Everything was so flavorful and refreshing. (Yes, even in this cold weather). It was warm and cozy inside, which was nice since it was cold and rainy. It was a cute spot and have some seating so that was nice too. We definitely want to come back to try the milk tea and the croffle next time. Can't wait for our next visit!

    After our mothers day and birthday lunch, we wanted some ice cream for dessert. Our nephew recommended this place and it did not disappoint! I love how cute the place is. It's just pretty small with 4 petite round tables but clean. It has it's own simple touch and decor. They even have ube(purple yam) and cheese flavor which is very popular in Philippines. My husband ordered both of them 1 scoop each. Boy, we didn't realize how big per scoop is! It's even good for 3 people so what I did is I got some mini cups to share them all w my in laws. I just don't like their cheese though. It's not cheesy enough for me lol. I got the Croffle and ordered the Smores w chocolate ice cream, and the Nutella and banana was for my sis in law and niece. At first bite I thought their croffle was tough but as I ate through them, it was not really. The combination of the buttery croissant and crispy waffle was amazing. I thought the serving was too big, it's a good thing that it was not. It's just the perfect size. That's for me. Lol! I love this place and the staff were pleasant with very good service. Parking is not a problem either and their price ? Hmm it's a little pricey but reasonable. They even have readily available ice cream in pints and ice cream cakes. Definitely would come back and try it again for some different flavors.

    Ube, rose lychee and black sesame
    Kristine S.

    Been some time since I came here and I must say they have gotten better from the first time I tried it. Finally got to try the black sesame and it was good especially combined with the rose lychee. It was sweet and you could taste the distinct flavor. Their ube flavor is good too. We enjoyed our time this time as we were able to sit down and enjoy our ice cream and still be able to have a conversation. Service was quick this time as we knew not to come during peak hours.

Can be very busy, but servers are really nice and quick with making the drinks. I recommend ordering ahead online or the app and pick it up when it's ready, just because it's also a really small location so nowhere to sit really. However in the Milpitas location is in this huge plaza with other foods around, so you can walk around and there are couple tables outside! For those who love heytea please recommend a drink for me!!

My only frame of reference nowadays is seeing how much tea cost in Asia. And in Taiwan (the birthplace of boba) I got boba for $3 ;( *sigh oh well I live in one of the most expensive places in the country but also I cannot believe I let myself think this is okay. Anyway, it's a treat, not a habit I would give into everyday.

    My go-to for fresh chewy boba!…read more I really like coming here when I want boba. Xing Fu Tang boba is one of the only places where I will get boba every single time I get a drink there. Since their boba is made fresh and kept in a warm walk, the boba is always soft and warm and doesn't get hard even when it's put in the drinks. Another thing I like is that they do have drink options that don't have caffeine in it. I especially like coming here during the weekday since they're usually not busy so the drinks come out really fast. On busier days, sometimes they do run out of boba, but they do let you know ahead of time or they give you other options. I also like that they have boba with ice cream because some days I don't want a drink. But I do want a sweet treat. We've had so many of their drinks and they've all been really good which is why we come back so often. Here's a list of our favorites: Taiwanese boba milk tea Thai boba milk tea Signature brown sugar boba milk Chocolate brown sugar boba milk It's also fun to hang around during the busy hours since that's when you can watching how they make their boba! Overall, we really like coming here and we are always down for some Xing Fu Tang boba!

    Xing Fu Tang is known for their handmade boba that gets stir fried in a big wok, which is fun to…read morewatch and definitely part of the appeal. I got the signature brown sugar boba. Also got the mango smoothie with the cute rabbit jelly add on. Visually, it was very aesthetic and Instagram friendly. Taste wise, it was okay. The drink leaned pretty sweet, and while the boba was chewy and fresh, the tea itself did not stand out much. Service was fine and efficient. Overall, it feels more like a place you go for the experience and aesthetics rather than for an amazing drink. Cute concept, solid boba, but not something I would crave regularly.
