The staff were helpful, but more smiles would make customer feel more welcome. I saw two fancy brewing machines and saw the tea dripping out so this is a good sign. The prices are a little higher comparted to other bubbles places, but the freshly brewed tea makes it a higher quality of taste. I ordered the Taro Queen and enjoyed, and you can choose the amount of ice and sweetness. Loved sipping to find the taro paste but not alot of tea to drink. Not sure if I come back as there are other options.

Got the bubble volcano made with oat milk - I am fully aware there is no tea in this drink, and the cashier did note that. However the drink was very disappointing - as it was 25% ice, 65% FOAM and probably got like 10% worth of actual drinkable liquid. The Brown sugar taste was good , not overwhelming - however the amount of liquid for the price paid was seriously laughable. - Oat milk does come out of the carton pretty foamy after you shake it, however that doesn't mean you serve a cup of foam. Will not recommend - bubble tea scene is super competitive, especially in Richmond -

The matcha drinks and desserts were beautifully presented and tasted rich and authentic, with that deep, fragrant matcha flavor that's never too sweet. We have today: Hojicha shaved ice, replaced with matcha ice cream. This location in Richmond had ran out of Hojicha ice cream for a long time. We asked every time when they will have hojicha ice cream back and staff doesn't know either. Hojicha Chestnut Shortcake, Cake is soft and fluffy, and very too sweet. It is always my favorite. This time i gave a 4 stars is because they discontinue serving Onigiri ( rice ball) and savory item. That's too bad! I love their Onigiri and ramen! Staff said the one inside the open road Toyota still has savory item. Maybe next time I will try that location

I was excited to see a Japanese take on high tea as I kept getting posts about Tsujiri on my…read moreinstagram feed. When I had the chance to go to Vancouver, BC with my boyfriend I wanted to go here! First all, you need a reservation specifically for the high tea portion so we booked that ahead of time. As you go in you are led to an area of Tsujiri where there are just tatami mats and no shoes are allowed on it. We were first sat down with matcha to start with and the music surrounding us was serene and calming. Then came the high tea, compared to your usual high tea, without the Japanese fusion. This came with a lot of interesting treats. In the middle tier, there was your savory two different types of onigiri, savory rice cakes, and elevated salad with a jelly. The salad was incredible and unlike anything I've had before. The onigiris were good as they should be so was the rice cakes. Top tier and bottom tier consisted of the desserts one plate for me and one plate for my boyfriend. My favorite was the mango mochi. It was so creamy and delicious! The other dessert was solid too, I like the little mousse cake. I also liked the add on of a matcha sauce for the fruits. Tsujiri definitely transformed high tea into a Japanese version and it was well put. Both usually make me full. I do wish there was more options on savories you could have before eating the sweets, but this is a slightly different experience.

It reminded me of my younger days when i had spent hours inside a bubble tea shop chatting endlessly with friends. Not many bubble tea joints offer such an environment nowadays. I got two drinks: 1) strawberry ice cream black tea - this was definitely a pleasant surprise! I never really liked ice cream in my drinks but i really loved this! It was like a dessert! They used some kind of strawberry sauce and it was very tasty. I asked for no sugar and ice so the drink was perfect because it was only slightly sweetened by the strawberry sauce. 2) four season milk tea with ultimate chew - I read that they're known for their four season and so I had wanted to try. It was pretty good though my personal preference was a stronger tea taste. I found the pearls a little bit harder than usual and thus it was quite chewy. I would definitely come back if i was looking for a place to chat with friends!

I also love that i was able to taste the jade tea in my mouth. The grape slush was also refreshing. It was like a frappe. While I'm not personally a fan of slushie drinks, the grape slushie was actually quite delicious! In terms of seating, I did see the they have a sign of max occupancy of 10.

While you can get by with spending less on slow days, teas here are not inexpensive. My wife and I shared a $30 pot of tea, and the menus had teas prices in the hundreds. Michael - one of the knowledgeable workers in the tea shop, educated us during our time there about how tea can be aged, and how aged tea is not easily found. Pretty interesting look into a world I know absolutely nothing about. The tea I had was good, but again, unless you have a ultra refined palette, you might not be able to fully appreciate the quality of the tea here.

He got a Blueberry Slushy drink and the wheel cake had red bean inside. Drinks are always solid at Peanuts and on the more affordable side too given what many other places will charge for bubble tea drinks these days. I honestly wasn't a huge fan of his wheel cake but that's no fault of the shop. Red bean is something I'm generally not crazy about to begin with. I have learned over the years that I can appreciate red bean as a bubble tea drink if it's all blended up. However, it's the chunks of bean that I don't like, and this wheel cake had chunks of bean in it. Might have gone over better with me if it had been filled with a smooth, red bean paste...no chunks of bean in it. That's just personal preference though. If you're someone who enjoys red bean paste and don't mind chunks, then you might enjoy this Taiwanese wheel cake.

The dining space is small but the decoration inside makes you feel like you transported to a different country. Marshmallow Thick Toast 4/5 The toast was about an inch thick, well toasted outside with a pillowy soft center. There's some melted chocolate on the bottom that added to the smores vibe. The marshmallows on top weren't very thick, so it melted to an even layer with perfect browning. The toast was cut into 9 pieces so it can be shared but given the portion I think 1-2 people would be fitting for this dessert. We weren't too hungry, so we shared amongst 4. Jasmine Tea Jelly 4/5 I really liked how fragrant the jelly was and that the jelly was a softer jelly that reminds you of Aiyu jelly. The after taste was a bit bitter but I feel like that tells me it was brewed and made and not just bought to serve. It's served with a splash of half and half I believe. To-Go I wanted to try and compare all the tea flavored jellies they had, Jasmine, Oolong and Earl Grey Tea Jelly. Packaged with small packets of the half and half to add later. The best was OOLONG 5/5- it had a slight roasted tea flavor that was refreshing and comforting at the same time. What you would want from a milk tea. Second best was Jasmine - fragrant and less bitter than the one I had in restaurant, typical jasmine flavor that's lightly floral and not too heavy Earl Grey 3/5 - it was good if you like earl grey like me, but it has an intensely strong fragrance and flavor that might be off-putting if you're not used to the taste. It was by far the strongest floral taste and smell of the three. I'd definitely be back to get these to go, they carry well and you can cross borders with them :)

The service was excellent from start to finish. They were incredibly patient and took the time to answer all of our questions thoroughly, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

Our absolute favorite was the shaved ice--it was refreshing, perfectly textured, and just amazing! Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for genuine Taiwanese food and warm, attentive service.
