Soyful Desserts looked promising, but unfortunately the experience fell flat. The prices were already on the high side, and to make matters worse, I was overcharged. When you're paying premium prices, you expect quality to match, but the desserts were underwhelming and not worth the cost. The pandan waffle was especially disappointing--it was undercooked, doughy, and lacked the texture you'd expect from a fresh waffle. Between the overcharging, poor quality, and underwhelming desserts, this place was a miss for me. There are plenty of better dessert spots in San Jose that offer better value and better flavors. I wouldn't recommend it.

Black Tea ($10) - Less Ice, 0%, Boba, Grass Jelly, Soy Pudding
Elena N.

Date: Friday, February 6th, 2026 What: Boba Delivery Ordered Thru: DoorDash DoubleDash Time Placed: around 3:15pm Arrived: about 30 mins later Neighborhood: Evergreen *Black Tea ($10) - Less Ice, 0%, Boba, Grass Jelly, Soy Pudding *Service Fee ($1.99) *Estimated Tax ($0.94) I was getting lunch thru DD. Decided to add a tea to it. I actually wanted almond pudding, but didn't see a spot with it. Saw this place had soy pudding, so figured I would try it. I am about 4 miles and a 12 min drive away. I actually haven't had dofu fa in quite some time. This was basically that in black tea with grass jelly and boba. I enjoyed the nostalgia of it. The boba was soft and chewy, The grass jelly herbally and silky. One mistake I made, the soy pudding could use some sweetness to cut into that curd flavor. The tea strength could have been stronger for me, Otherwise, I enjoyed my beverage. Good if you want a soy pudding. REVIEW #3981

milk tea with soy pudding
Jennifer

I gave this place a try because they have a unique variety of drinks and toppings combined with great deals. Unfortunately, I rather disliked my drink. I got a plain milk tea with soy pudding and it was very floral. I love floral tea but this tasted a little off. I do have friends that appreciate their other drinks so i'll give this place another try! Parking was easy. It's located in Paloma plaza.

I ordered the egg foam matcha. It has a very good strong matcha flavor that I find most places often lacking. I tried the foam before mixing & it's very yummy on its own. It has a nice balance between salty and sweet.

Creamy Rose Milk Tea
Kaylee T.

Got this and the creamy milk tea with pudding. I think this would also taste better with the pudding since it feels a little bit lacking without toppings. I got my drink pretty quickly even though it seemed like it was only one person working and several orders ahead of me.

Menu

Parking: They are in a plaza but the parking is always PACKED because there's a bunch of popular eateries here. You will drive around a bit for a spot or resort to street. Interior: a few tables to dine in or combine for large group. Wait Time: 10-15 min for 2 drinks since they were running their BOGO promo and had a lot of people ordering Items Order: 10/10 Banana Matcha $8.5 - My favorite Bana matcha by far in the bar area. Their banana is super natural, adds intense creaminess, and banana flavor is well balanced with the matcha. 8/10 Egg Coffee $8.5 - Egg cream is solid, semi sweet, and adds creaminess to the viet coffee base that was strong and authentic. Overall a good drink. 7/10 Tamago Matcha $8.5 - there was nothing special about this. would pass 7/10 Milk Tea + Egg Pudding $6.5 + $1 - same as the above. not sure why people hype this drink up on their other reviews Drinks overall were 4/5 stars but deducting due to: Service - went for their BOGO promo x3. 1st and 2nd times I mixed and matched drinks. The 3rd time I also mixed drink orders and the cashier took my order as normal but when the order came out wrong (they made 2 matcha drinks) manager told me their policy has always been BOGO on the same drink only. Refused to do mixed BOGO even though cashier took my mixed drink order and did not mention this policy until I already waited the 15min for the wrong drinks.

This place feels like a Vietnamese chè spot first, with matcha and boba added on as an afterthought. The tofu itself was surprisingly a little salty, which threw me off, and it wasn't cold enough for the amount of ground ice they give you, so the balance felt off. The matcha was not good. Bitter, astringent, and tasted like very low-quality powder. Definitely not for matcha lovers. If you're ordering, I'd point people to #1. It's labeled milk tea, but it's really more of a milk-flavored drink with soft tofu than an actual milk tea. Still the safest choice. The #8 combo had too much going on, lacked texture, and landed in an awkward middle ground where it wasn't quite a dessert and not really a drink either.

Soy Pudding Combination #8, Creamy Milk Tea
Karl G.

Checked out Soyful Desserts at their Silver Creek location after always missing out at their Story Road spot. Finally got a chance to see what all the hype was about. Soyful delivers on authentic chè and creamy milk teas that hit the spot. - Soy Pudding Combination -- served with brown sugar syrup and coconut milk, topped with pandan jelly, boba, red bean, sago, basil seeds, grass jelly, and Japanese pudding, plus a layer of shaved ice. This is their #2 drink and it's packed with toppings. A classic Vietnamese dessert that's both refreshing and nostalgic. I loved the texture contrast, especially the jellies and shaved ice - Creamy Milk Tea -- their #1 drink. Thick, smooth, and super creamy. Personally, it was a bit too sweet without customizations, so I'd go less sweet next time and definitely recommend adding pudding for an even richer sip There are a few tables and seats inside, and the service was fast and efficient. Ambience is open but can get busy during rush times and when they're doing deals. The plaza gets pretty busy since it's home to a bunch of popular Vietnamese spots. Soyful has also hopped on the matcha wave and started offering banana matcha drinks. I've seen them doing BOGO deals recently too. Looking forward to coming back to try more!

Came here to try the soy pudding combination. We ordered it unsweetened and it was still semi sweet. It was delicious and had so many toppings in it. I like the texture of the soy pudding smooth and not chewy. The service was quick and it was a nice setting to have a chat with friends. I would return and recommend.

Pandan waffle
Hesperian C.

This is one of my go to soy pudding drink spots. Then again.... I don't know of any others anywhere else. Somehow I always end up going here when I'm in the area. This happens to also have the best pandan waffles in San Jose. They come out fresh crunchy and chewy.

Drink: 3.5/5 Got their new specials at 50% sweetness but it was still wayyyy too sweet. Tasted like a 100% to me. But I love the pandan jelly texture and the combo. I think I would like their matcha series more. Will try that next time. Service: 5/5 Very friendly and polite staff. I'm giving an overall 4* because of that. Ambiance: very tidy and have some tables for people to hang out.

Inside
Kimberly N.

Soyful Desserts never disappoints! This spot is tucked inside a plaza, and while the parking lot can get a little busy, there's usually parking available nearby if you don't mind a short walk. The shop itself is always clean, bright, and bustling with customers. The staff are friendly and efficient, even during rush hours. I've tried a few of their drinks, but my go-to favorite has to be the #5 Pandan Boba. It's the perfect balance of flavor. It is not too sweet, just right. It comes with soy pudding, brown sugar, coconut milk, pandan jelly, and boba. Every sip is creamy, refreshing, and perfectly satisfying. Definitely a must-try if you stop by!

Soy Pudding w/ pandan, boba #5 - 75% sweet, SO GOOD, tastes like taho or dau hu nuoc duong minus the ginger
Tiffany T.

Gotta love Soyful! Ordered the #5 Combo 75% sweet which is soy pudding with pandan jelly noodles and boba. This tastes like taho/dau hu nuoc duong minus the ginger and it's not warm. The pudding tastes like delicious silken tofu, combined with the varying textures of the pandan jellies and the chewy boba, this is SOO GOOD and it's all covered in sweet coconut cream. Absolutely recommend and it's even good the next day if you don't finish it.

Ask the Community - Soyful Desserts

How long is the Bogo for the banana matcha? Tried calling many times but no one answers.

I saw on their Instagram that it is the whole month of August. But hopefully they will extend it.

Why is there no phone number?

Are they opened during the new SIP lockdown in Dec 2020? What are their new hours?

They are now reopened, but only until 8 PM every day! There is also no seating inside.

Is the milk tea made with soy milk?

Do they still serve the soy pudding with panda boba?

I don't think they do. But you can ask them if you do go there.

I've been wanting to try this place out for a while but never got the chance to until now!…read more i ordered a pandan basque cheesecake for my birthday and it was DELICIOUS. everyone was raving about it! It looks a little small at first measuring at 6 inches but it was very filling. The ordering process was very smooth too online and it was ready just in time! The only thing is be prepared to circle around and search for parking for a while especially on the weekends. it's in a huge sprawling plaza which can be confusing if you have never been there before.

CA Bakehouse is located in the Vietnam Town complex. Parking can be a problem if you want to park…read moreclose to the bakehouse but if you're not picky then you can park by the back. CA Bakehouse does not open till 12 noon so that's my main complaint. That's why it took us a long time to ever try it and was only here twice. They are pretty popular so there can be a line. Ordering is done by the door, no one is allowed to go inside and I don't really understand why. There's no way for us to really see and explore what else we want to order. We have ordered the following on both occasions: - Choux (my fave and our usual) - kaya and ube flavors - Pandan-Coconut Milk bread - Banh Bo (honeycomb cake) - Guava filled Mochi cake - Durian, Kaya & Portuguese Egg Tarts - Kaya Croissants All in all, it is good. Hoping they will open earlier like 10am. October 2026

My absolute favorite matcha spot in San Jose!! I'm a very…read moretough critic on matcha spots nowadays and don't really frequently come back to many- but Aroma always hits the spot for me!!! I've come back multiple times and all their matcha drinks have been so deliciously perfect for my taste buds! i've also tried their che and its approved by my viet mom & aunties and that's also saying a lot haha! My favorite matchas are the jasmine matcha and banana cream matcha!! I tried their vanilla matcha and pandan matcha as well and those are great options as well. Not many matcha spots have jasmine matcha so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw they sold it- I loveee jasmine tea and it's so fragrant and pairs well with the matcha-- so unique and my go-to matcha drink most days I come here! When i'm craving a sweeter matcha, I go for their banana matcha. The banana pudding/cream and biscoff crumble is so yummy and you still taste a lot of the matcha flavor too! Most of the time, cream tops overpower the matcha but this place nails the balance down! Love love love their matcha!! Service can be a bit slow because they use one iPad kiosk for orders and the workers stay in the back behind the curtains to make drinks. Every matcha is hand-whisked per order so they have signs around the store letting us know it might be a wait if busy! I do like the music they play whenever I wait for my drinks. Otherwise I just walk around the plaza until my drink is ready! :)

I've been to Aroma a few times and always love their matcha, especially the banana cream! had to…read moretry their new pumpkin spice matcha and it did NOT disappoint the pumpkin cream literally tasted like pumpkin pie and was SO good. the pumpkin syrup blended perfectly with their strong matcha, and I loved that it wasn't overly sweet. every time I've been, the staff have been friendly and the café has been clean. definitely recommend trying it if you're a matcha lover! I'll definitely be back.
