We were in Flagstaff and just happened to drive past Sono Kitchen. Since we already tried the one in Sedona, we pretty much knew what we were going to order. Of course, we got the popcorn chicken again. We skipped the drinks this time and just went straight for our favorite. And let me tell you, the popcorn chicken here is HUGE. Each piece is like the size of a chicken wing. It's crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and honestly, it's super filling. I was already full just from eating the popcorn chicken. This location is also bigger than the one in Sedona, so it feels more open and comfortable. And parking is way easier since they have their own spots right outside, which is always a plus. If you liked the Sedona location, you're definitely going to like this one too. read more

Great little boba place located off of Milton in Flagstaff. The decorations were cat themed and cute, and they sold extremely cute merchandise! The service was quick, the cashier and the kitchen staff were extremely nice. I got the Dragon Eyes tea with mango popping boba. The dragon Eyes is a green tea with Dragon fruit and mango, it is not sparkling. Chunks of Dragon fruit are in the drink. I really liked this drink, it was refreshing and the flavors while subtle were well mixed. read more

DS wanted Asian so we rolled the dice and decided on Sono bc of solid Google & Yelp ratings. We ordered: * Sono House Noodles 3/5 * Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken 5/5 * Taro Boba (Hot) 5/5 Noodles fell short bc they were a bit soggy and the flavors were a combination of Taiwanese (Lu Rou style) and Japanese (super sweet Teriyaki). Everything else (chicken, boba) was legit. Japanese music def helped create a lively atmosphere. Convenient parking. Easy cafe style, kiosk ordering. read more

Visitor from Bay Area, I always thought boba shops outside the Bay would be cheaper -- until I came here. A popcorn chicken + drink combo was $18, where similar combos back home are usually $10-$15. A regular milk tea runs about $7, and upgrading from medium to large costs additional $1.40, the upside doesn't really seem bigger enough for the price, even the most expensive boba chains in the Bay Area don't charge that much. We ordered the green tea and peach mojito, and both were just okay -- nothing special to justify the higher prices. Overall, I'm not sure why everything here is so expensive given the quality. read more

This is such a cute cat-themed boba shop! The Sono signature milk tea and jasmine milk tea were pretty good, and I also liked the salt & pepper popcorn chicken (especially with the mayo sauce). I loved all the cat-themed apparel, stickers, and cups. The cat drink stickers were so cute, I had to get a couple of the matcha ones. read more

Tried their Japanese Calamari this time and asked for no salt sprinkle on top. They were kind to give me the seasonings on the side. The last time we tried the popcorn chicken and tofu, they were too salty. Flavor was good even without the salt! Very crispy and tasty. Calamari is now $12.95 + tax which is quite pricey but there isn't much of other options here in town unfortunately. read more

I've never had an issue since this restaurant has been open. You walk in, order at the counter, wait for your food to be called, and enjoy! The boba drinks taste so fresh, we've enjoyed each one we've purchased. I usually get the Strawberry Snow White, which is frozen, and my husband gets the Dragon Eyes, with popping boba. You can never go wrong with a Thai Milk Tea though! As for food, I've only tried the gyoza and the Pop n Bo bowl but damn they're both really good!! My husband and I often go for the Pop n Bo bowl, if not a boba tea. It's a very open restaurant, lots of windows, but feels very laid back, and a chill place to catch up with friends, which I do here often. read more

This boba fiend had to try a new spot on a weekend trip :) I love the flavor options; they're unique in my opinion. It was hard to choose one but I went with the dragon fruit refresher with crèma. It was definitely refreshing and the boba is cooked well. My boyfriend got the taro drink and he liked his as well. We will be back someday to try more flavors. read more

We got boba from here on Labor Day weekend. It was okay, not the best I've ever had and it was kind of expensive. I liked the decor and seems like they have a decent location near the freeway! There were a lot of people getting to-go orders. read more

The area is very spacious for a small cafe style place. The staff was friendly and accommodating. It is a bit pricey though. The food overall was yummy, I think the noodles were a bit on the sweeter side though and could ha e used a bit more tang or garlic/ginger flavor. Overall a nice treat once and a while. Had plenty left over. The Boba was perfect though! read more

The salt and pepper popcorn chicken was great! The Brussel sprouts were some of the best I've had. The gyoza was ok. Would be better if backed or fried. Unfortunately the orange chicken and teriyaki were just OK. We've been a few times and overall like the restaurant only gave it four out of five because of the orange & teriyaki chicken dishes were, meh. read more

Sono Kitchen & Boba - Tiger Power Salt & Pepper Popcorn Chicken GYU Don - Asian Fusion Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

I recently discovered Sono Kitchen and Boba in Flagstaff, and it quickly became one of my favorite spots. Ambiance is vibrant and clean. The menu is a unique blend of Asian-inspired dishes and a variety of boba drinks, which made it hard to choose just one thing! I ordered the popcorn chicken and a classic Thai tea boba, and both were outstanding. The chicken was seasoned with salt and pepper with crunchy texture, while the boba was wonderfully chewy and just the right level of sweetness. I also loved the unique boba flavors, like matcha lychee and taro coconut. Service was quick too. Tips - Located on the main street near Northern Arizona University. read more

Nice to see Taiwanese options in Flag! Came in on a Thursday night and it wasn't busy but not empty either. Casual spot for boba and Taiwanese snacks. Ordered the popcorn chicken and salt pepper tofu. We got the popcorn chicken first - nice and tender but tooo salty. Not sure why there was a dipping sauce with it as it's not needed or authentic. A well spiced and fried popcorn chicken and fried basil is the way to go. Since it was salty we asked if our tofu could have less salt since it didn't come out yet. They said yes and it was great! Also came with the same sauce that wasn't needed. Overall not bad and service super nice and friendly. read more

If you have a Taiwanese snack craving, this is the place to go! It is a cute cafe in Flagstaff, AZ that was near our hotel. We enjoyed this meal the most during our stay in Arizona. The popcorn chicken was delicious! It had the right amount of flavor, crunch, and it had chunks of chicken. I highly recommend it! The steam rice was on point! The fried tofu was delicious as well! The boba milk tea was good and the boba had the right consistency. The dragon eyes tea wasn't as described, but my partner still enjoyed it. The servers were probably students, but friendly and helped when needed. The place is clean and organized. The prices were kind of high, but may be worth it as it hit the spot! read more

**Feeling wordy on this one, bear with me.** I wanted something different - new town, new food - so decided to check out Sono for lunch, get some protein and maybe a second bubble tea for taste comparisons from my first stop. This fast-casual eatery is nice: Order at the counter, take your number, go up and grab your food from the large kitchen cutout counter when your number's called; plenty of seating and clean tables. There's prepackaged cold drinks and snacks at the counter and mugs, water bottles, anime keychains and other trinkets. I got the Salt & Pepper Tofu and my go-to bubble tea flavor, their Taro Yama. The salt/pepper and chili spice (didn't notice what this was brand-wise) are powder-form, so you sprinkle on the fresh hot tempura tofu cubes. Yes, it was spiced, was the good kind that warms your mouth and doesn't distract from the flavor. The dipping "sauce" was more of a mayo taste, but I also missed catching the deets. A great pick. I was not too pleased with my Taro Yama bubble tea. After sitting in the fridge overnight, it had congealed to a slimy glob. After a few bites, the taste was overly sweet, and the boba weren't helping either way. That went to the waste heaven. Adding in, I did grab a matcha, a strawberry, and a red bean mochi to take on the trip. When I finally got around to eating the mochi, they were pretty good. The pink and white just had a red bean paste inside, but the green matcha was really good. Just remember to keep them refrigerated; mine lasted just fine that way five days after buying them. read more

I tried this place in Sedona. I was craving boba tea so decided to stop by this place in flagstaff. I ordered the sea salt mango with boba and my friend got the grapefruit refresh. My drink wasn't bad but it's definitely not one of my favorites. My friend said hers was just okay, tasted exactly like grapefruit- bitter Wouldn't mind coming back to try the other drinks read more

Sono Kitchen & Boba - Sea salt mango with boba and grapefruit refresh - Asian Fusion Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

I love the boba here, it's consistently delicious. Service is good and reasonably fast. My only complaint is the price, but I have to hand it to them, the quality is there. I prefer this location, Flagstaff, over Sedona whenever possible as it is much easier to get parking reasonably close. I also find the Sedona location much slower in terms of getting drinks out to you. If you have the option, visit the Flagstaff location over Sedona. read more

Woohoo! I'm so glad there's a decent boba shop in Flagstaff. When we came here just a few minutes after opening there was already a line 3 customers deep so they are doing something right to have a steady stream of customers at opening time. The menu consists of various bowls, snacks, and a variety of bubble tea drinks. For those watching their caffeine intake they do have caffeine free drinks such as the strawberry snow white. Since it was my first time here I opted to get their boba milk tea to gauge how it was compared to other typical milk teas I've had. Although I requested it 50% sweet it came out 25% sweet on the receipt, a mistake on the cashier's part but after I tried it I was OK with the minimal amount of sweetness. At 25% sweet it was refreshing with just a hint of sweetness. I think at 25% sweetness I could also taste the tea flavor more which I also appreciated. The boba included in the milk tea was nice and chewy, and was white colored as opposed to the darker colored tapioca you might see at other shops. I got the medium size but I quickly sipped up all my drink so next time I'd probably opt for a large size. The food here looks intriguing so next time I'll have to it! I tried a sip of the strawberry snow white at 50% sweetness. When ordering the drink at reduced sweetness the cashier warned that the drink wouldn't have as much strawberry flavor but after taking the sip it seemed like a good amount of strawberry flavor to me, just more tart. I got this drink for the kiddo with passion fruit popping boba which garnered a thumbs up from her. I also tried a tiny bit of the taro yama which tasted like your typical taro milk tea made from powder. It tasted good at full sweetness. Details: - Sweetness level can be adjusted in 25% increments - Additional charge for alternative milks (Coconut and almond) - Additional charge for ice adjustments - Medium is 16 oz, large size is 24 oz - Drinks have heat sealed lids - Punch cards available read more

Came here during a recent trip to Flagstaff. Kids were craving slushies and found this spot. The place was very cute and the staff was extremely nice. The one manager even talked to us about expansion plans for the business. We ordered a mango and strawberry slushie and it was not bad. The boba was a little hard but that could've been because it was sitting inside the slushies. read more

Hard to find some asian food on Sedona, but this one is in the corner of the main street. Prices are ok. Portions are little. Chicken popcorn is great. Chicken ginger has more ginger and garlic than Chicken. Rice is very little. I don't think its worth the price, but if your craving asian then this is a great place. I still recommend it. read more

I come from the land of boba.. (well, outside of Taiwan anyways). We're very spoiled in SoCal so I definitely came in with slightly lowered expectations. Now, SoCal boba this is not. They don't have any of the fancier things like a jasmine tea cheese foam or fresh fruit teas. However, what they do have is pretty solid. All their drinks come with boba so be sure to ask for no boba if it's not your thing. Their sea salt mango tea was actually pretty good and their taro milk tea and black milk tea are exactly what you would want. We got all of our drinks 50% sweet and it was just the right amount. Asian tastes I guess! What surprised me the most was the food. I wouldn't say it's authentically Taiwanese but everything was tasty. The house noodle was more of a teriyaki bowl with noodles. I liked the addition of some Napa cabbage and Chinese cucumber salad. Chicken was tender and not over cooked Pork don - they use Lu rou fan as the rice base which is such a nice surprise. The pork chop was moist and perfectly breaded. 10/10 would recommend 3 drinks, 2 house noodles and 1 pork don was roughly $76 which is the most I've ever paid for boba and food. It's a bit pricier than I would expect but I'm led to believe that Flagstaff is kind of an expensive place? read more

Whenever I come up to flagstaff on the weekends I usually end up getting lunch at least one of the days with my friend here. The atmosphere is fun and casual with nice big windows that let the light in. I usually get the Pop n' Bo which is about $16 for popcorn chicken and boba. The food comes out relatively quick and has good flavor. The popcorn chicken is nice, crispy, and salty but in a good way. It comes with a sort if seasoned mayo sauce to dip in as well. The boba really depends on which one you get. I've had some I really liked and some that were just okay. It's really up to personal preference! I would recommend coming here for a quick lunch and am definitely interested in trying more things on the menu! read more

Pleasantly surprised at how good everything was! Got the sea salt mango full sweet and it was perfect for me. Honestly it was too sweet which was great. Also got the chili shrimp bowl which was fantastic! Highly recommend, and they don't skimp on the shrimp at all! Two types of fried shrimp, one drenched in the chili sauce (think orange chicken but with shrimp and not orange lol). They also give you a few pieces of dried fried shrimp! Only complaint would be the rice underneath some of it was hard:/ Overall, def coming back just bringing my own rice. read more

We went wanting Chinese food. This isn't really that. This is like a greasy, fast food noodle place Everything was tasty, but didn't seem healthy, like what I would get at a real Chinese food place. Teriyaki chicken is dark meat, which I don't really like, but it was some of the better dark meat I've had. Noodles were tasty, but greasy and have tiny pieces of pork all through them, and I don't like eating pork.. Pickles were good. I've never had boba. Got a mango cream boba, and the standard boba in the bottom were like coffee gummies. It seemed strange, so I asked about it. They have a mango boba that pops, which were great, and to me would have made a lot more sense to be what they put in the bottom of a mango drink. Customer service was good. They have tons of land outside, but no outdoor seating, which seems strange to me in this place. read more

Having lived in Japan, it was fun to see a small pop-up restaurant like this hit Flagstaff! Recommend: Yes! Prices are on par, food was relatively quick, hot, tasty, and nothing was out of place for flavor. Very welcoming staff, airy, room to move around and should turn out to be a smash hit for the college town! Food was temperately correct, flavored and not bogged down in oil and well presented. Really enjoyed this quick stop in. Two things, 1) The acoustics are a bit loud, absolutely zero deadening articles to absorb sound as they yell out orders along with the door opening straight to the busy highway, and 2) the seats are not too cushy on the tushy... if you catch my drift (LOL) Great time and will certainly be back! read more

This is a business WITHOUT ETHICS!!!! Instead of apologizing for their old and stale food, they will strong arm you into keeping the products and they will refuse your request for any return, and when you insist, they will LIE and muster up some sort of void to say that the ticket has been refunded when the refund transition never took place. I know this because I was a victim of their immoral business practice. This was what happened.. I saw that they carry macaron ice cream sandwich. I purchased one for $5 (they are petite in size btw). When I got it, it was soooooo old and hard that I could not even make any teeth mark on the cookie nor the ice cream. It was 100% freezer burned as well. I immediately took it to the order girl and show it to her, then I demanded money back. Instead of apologizing, she stood there arguing with me telling me how she couldn't give my money back. After me getting angry at her, she finally reluctantly pretended to refund me. When I asked for a receipt, she originally said no receipt, but after I pressed it, she showed me a paper saying something remotely looking like a void. She swore that I would get my money back on my statement. Well, two statements have come and went. NO REFUND!!!! What a LIE!! Immoral and ZERO THICS not to mention zero customer service and lack of common sense! Forget about OLD, STALE and INEDIBLE food!!! SHUT YOUR STORE DOWN AND STOP TREATING YOUR VALUED CUSTOMERS LIKE JUNKS!!!!! read more

I got a little bit of everything on the menu and ordered through door dash. It was absolutely delicious. The crispy chicken was actually crispy and flavorful! I tried things I had no idea what to expect and loved every one. Highly recommend if you can afford it, it was a bit pricey but worth it. I have never been inside or eaten there but I'm looking forward to that very much. The ambience I have been told is unique. And the service is unique as well. read more

My kids enjoyed so, I did too. Drinks were good. Very flavorful and a lot to choose from

I would give them another star if I could. They exceeded expectations in every way starting from opening their doors 5 minutes early to let us sit inside where it was cooler. I didn't think our boba would be authentic but the quality of our boba is something we could've found in Asia. Real mango pieces and a salted foam with good tea- I could cry happy tears. Their fried salt and pepper chicken was hot, crispy, and so delicious. Their gyoza was thick and juicy with a crisp outside, not the cheap tiny ones you can find at other restaurants. Their sona bowl had the kind of egg David Chang would be proud of with juicy pieces of marinated chicken, cooked cabbage and stretchy soft noodles. Love their cute bright interior. Am I in Cerritos? Their staff are quick, nice, and showed a great level of care and communication. Well worth our detour. read more
