I do like that their tea is not too sweet. In terms of Boba, it's a little too chewy for my liking. I also find that the boba to liquid ratio varies by location. f you do get two toppings, recommend you do 1/2 of each instead of one full scoop of each. You do get charged more and it's also just way too many toppings. The staff are really friendly and willing to help you understand the menu if needed. The drinks come out quick too. Only con I could give is the location is a pain to get to but that is more on it being located in the junction. The parking lot is busy too so take caution thete. 4/5

It was so clean and slick. The menu had milk tea, tea latte, flavored tea, pink salt cheese crema, alongside 10 different toppings. Sugar and ice level were customizable. I ordered the crema mango tea and the signature milk tea. The baristas were helpful. They took the ordered and prepared the drinks in few minutes. The mango crema was so delicious. The bobas were sweet, soft and chewy. I loved the flavor so much, finished the whole drink in 10 minutes.

You really can't go wrong with any of the drinks but my all time favorites are the tieguanyin oolong milk tea with toppings and the strawberry milk tea, which I believe they have now rebranded to strawberry smoothie. Sugar is adjustable which is great because I love my drinks less sweet. I got the strawberry smoothie and bff milk tea this time, which I believe is black milk tea with egg pudding and grass jelly, and I added egg pudding. So delicious and creamy, and the smoothie does not give off an artificial fruit taste. One thing that was off-putting to me was the signage indicating their kiosk. The makeshift, handwritten message to turn around and use the kiosk seems passive aggressive and gives off the message that the workers do not want to talk to you. Other than that, we got our drinks pretty fast since it wasn't busy near closing, which was when I went.

I come here for the macarons, but they also have ice cream, cream puffs, boba tea, Vietnamese coffee, etc. I recommend getting a box of one dozen assorted macarons. They have lots of fun colors and flavors and they usually include an info card so you can identify each one. I definitely recommend this fun place and there is something for everyone here!

Potstickers were spot on too, crispy edges, juicy filling, exactly what you want. Now the downside: the Korean Scallion Pancake. I've had plenty of jeon around the city, and this one was just off. Bland, wet, and gluey. This is even giving space for regional differences! I mentioned it to the woman at the counter (red hair, piercings), and she told me, "that's just how they are here," "we just follow the recipe," and that people come in specifically for it. Then she kinda just stood there, waiting. I had to ask if they could cook it a little longer to crisp it up. They did, but it came back basically the same, just hotter. The fried chicken add-on didn't help much either; only a few tiny cubes. She did remove it from the bill, which I appreciated, but the whole exchange left me disappointed. They're clearly capable of great food; those dumplings prove it. But that pancake was a rare miss from a place that otherwise has serious potential.

While the flavor was great--tangy and tropical--it was still much sweeter than expected. Next time, I'd go with 30% or even no sugar to balance it better. My wife had the mango smoothie with 30% sweetness, and it was spot on--just the right amount of flavor and chill without being too sugary. The quality of the drinks was solid, and everything came out quickly and nicely presented. This location is also super convenient if you're visiting the nearby beach or just exploring the area. A great little stop to grab a treat and beat the heat. Would definitely come back to try other items on the menu. Cheers!
