Stopped by a new boba spot today after hitting up Huong Lan for some of my Vietnamese fast food favorites and was pleasantly surprised. Apparently, if you spend $30+ at Huong Lan, you get a free drink from the new shop next door, TeaMo. Had I known that beforehand, I probably wouldn't have ordered my Vietnamese coffee because they have coffee drinks there too. The service was fantastic. The male cashier was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly fast. While chatting with him, I learned something new: they carry Japanese matcha powder in small tins, including a red matcha variety with a more savory, umami flavor profile. I had never heard of red matcha before, so that definitely piqued my curiosity. I'll have to come back and pick up a tin to experiment with at home, especially since my nieces and nephews love matcha. For my free drink, I got a lychee milk tea with non-dairy creamer, black pearls, 25% sugar, and ice. It was refreshing, well-balanced, and not overly sweet. The shop has a clean, modern vibe, plenty of parking, and despite a steady stream of customers coming over from the bakery. I was in and out in under two minutes. My nieces and nephews are huge fans of boba, matcha, and any fruit drinks, so I'll definitely be bringing them back to explore the menu. They've only been open a few weeks, but based on today's experience, they're off to a great start. Great service, great first impression, and a nice addition to the plaza. Wishing them lots of success with their grand opening! read more

Final Thoughts: 4.00/5 New matcha spot on Tully Road. Kind of rare that I see anything happening in this plaza and very very rare that I go into this plaza to begin with because I'm not fond of trying to get out of here. My friends and I did want to try this place out. Seems like a fairly new place. They had a smaller menu when we first came, but after a little review, it seems like they expanded their drink and food menu a bit. As for the matcha, the pictures online showed a nice and rich matcha color, so we did decide to go here after dinner. Will be a solid 4 stars across the board here. Drink: Matcha Latte with Oat Milk: 4.00/5 Back to my basic matcha latte. Both my friend and I got their matcha latte today with oat milk. There really wasn't that many matcha options when this place initially opened. They don't have the additional cream tops like other places. Perhaps still pending or in the works. I'm always here for a simple matcha latte though. They actually do it well here. Even with the size of the cup, the ratios of matcha, milk, and ice are good. Of note, they do have the nugget ice provided here. Not a personal favorite for my friend, but I love the nugget ice because they're so cute. Sweetness was overall good. Matcha was a nice strong flavor, slightly sweet, light nuttiness. Menu: Their menu seems to have expanded since the last time we came here. I'm now seeing that they have just some more drink options and snacks. My friend and I didn't get any snacks today, but I did note that their snacks include Viet options like bánh khọt (these are the mini Vietnamese savory pancakes) and bánh bột chiên (fried rice flour cake). Other options include popcorn chicken and friesor tater tots. Doesn't seem to be an excessive amount at all, but honestly I prefer the quality over quantity. --------- Quality: Serving Nami Matcha Their matcha color looks very rich and seemed to have enough of it for the size of the cup. This cup is larger and I was a little concerned that the taste of the matcha would be diluted from the ice and milk. Their ratios actually work really well for me. Of note, at the cashier, it shows that they are using Nami Matcha. This is actually a nice matcha brand. Very smooth with a light and mild sweetness to it, which I enjoy. Price: Average Seems appropriate for a cup. Looking at the menu, the prices, they're around $7 to $8 per cup. There is an upcharge for the oat milk, so just a note for that. Milk substitutes are offered though. Prices for the snacks are very variable and will depend on which item you choose to get. Service: Sweet They're very nice and sweet. Went over the menu and asked if I had any questions when I first came. We were even able to get their stickers. Perhaps just a little something for us. When the drinks were done, one of the employees delivered the drinks to our table because we were sitting down at the time. Very short interaction, but memorable nonetheless. Ambiance: Simple Interior The interior is very simple and just gives me your quaint café vibes. The shop is kind of in a corner, so there's only so much light that comes in here. It's a cute café with minimal designs and interior. I like the interior colors with the light green and wood though. From the outside, it does look a little dimmer, but the interior is quite nice. Location/Parking: Large Plaza This parking and this area really is an area that I don't go to often given. Its's at the plaza on Tully and S King Road. The plaza itself is quite large and there is a hefty amount of parking, so I don't think that that will be a concern. It's a little harder to get out of the parking lot, but seems to be ok if you exit out through to S King Road versus Tully Road. read more

TeaMo - Matcha Late with Oat Milk (x2) - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

New matcha spot in SJ serving Nami Matcha! I came here upon recommendation and was happy that I made the visit. What immediately stood out to me on Yelp was how green their matcha was and the unique combinations they offered (ex. corn matcha). We visited on a Saturday around 3pm and there was no wait. I ordered the pandan matcha while my BF ordered the corn matcha. Both drinks were SOO good! I really appreciated how intense the pandan and corn flavors were for each respective drink. You're also able to purchase tins of Nami here - I got the yame powder for $40! Note - they're associated w/ Huong Lan sandwiches. If you spend $30 at Huong Lan, you get one free drink at Teamo! read more

TeaMo - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

I tried their Pandan Matcha Latte (pandan was more forward than matcha) and their Vietnamese Drip Coffee with Pandan milk (more coffee flavor than Pandan). Both drinks were ok, but the balance of flavors could be worked on a bit. Drinks are more on the sweet end/milky. read more

TeaMo - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

4.5 STARS As someone that's allergic to crowds, I love Coachella, Burning Man, and EDC weekends because no lines! Add, BTS at Stanford this weekend. And, the AP x Swatch collab for a McD happy meal toy "watch"... It's the best time to hit up new spots or hard to get into cafes and restos. TeaMo soft opened last week so we had to pay a visit after getting our cơm tấm fix nearby. Limited soft opening menu: Series: Fruit + milk teas, matcha, cà phê sữa đá, and non-caffeinated. Oat milk available for no charge. They also sell snacks: Popcorn chicken, tots, bánh khọt (mini savory pancakes) and bột chiên (fried rice cakes). D R I N K S * Pandan Matcha Latte ($7.25) - Fixed sweetness Love their pandan milk with a natural vanilla-y sweetness. TeaMo uses Nami Matcha, an influencer founded brand. I prefer more umami forward matcha so I wasn't a fan of the matcha's harsh bitter aftertaste. BUT, the pandan milk did a good job mellowing out bitterness and balancing the drink. * Bạc Xỉu ($6) Cà phê sữa đá with extra condensed milk is the right move. I had a sip and it was delicious! Sweet but not too sweet and creamy. You can still taste the strong roasty flavor but the extra condensed milk takes the bitter edge off. * Strawberry Mint Lemonade ($5.75) - Request less sweet Super refreshing and nicely tart. Loved the nugget ice. S E R V I C E Owner was friendly and very helpful. I was worried the matcha latte would be too sweet (fixed sweet) but he assured me it wouldn't be. He was right! Drinks were ready in less than 5 minutes. A M B I A N C E Casual space with five tables. Restroom available. If you're in the area getting your Viet food fix, give this new small business a try! read more

TeaMo - Pandan Matcha Latte ($7.25), Strawberry Mint Lemonade ($5.75), Bạc Xỉu: Cà Phê Sữa Đá w/ extra condensed milk ($6) - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

Yum! 4.5 stars I was searching for a matcha place near by and TeaMo pandan matcha caught my eye. Drinks came out fast, the matcha is pretty good, and the pandan flavor is yummy for $7.75 it makes sense.. Staff was super sweet! And the space is cute. Why 4.5 stars? - I asked for half sweet & half ice but realized after I left it was only half ice put in the ticket. Unfortunately the drink at 75% (their normal sugar) is TOO SWEET. read more

From the creators of Huong Lan Sandwich, there's another matcha place in the Bay Area! This one especially interested me since they use Nami Matcha from @aaashleyk. If you like strong matcha, this is the place to try! Their matcha lattes are pretty high quality and I really enjoyed the Corn Matcha Latte personally. It has a fresh corn taste to it, and it reminds me of Chè Bǎp! No sugar adjustments, but it was ideal sweetness for me. The owner highly recommended the Pandan Matcha Latte, and I would say it's comparable to Airoma Cafe... but slightly better! Less astringent. Balances really well. My friend also tried the Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba (50% sweet) and this was SOOO GOOD. The jasmine was so fragrant and floral, not too milky! The boba texture was nice and soft also! I need to come back and try their Banh Khot in the future!! The food menu here looks super enticing. A few tables inside for hanging out and doing work. Free wi-fi available too! read more

New cafe next to Huong Lan sandwiches serving Vietnamese iced coffee and matcha! This place is a bit difficult to find but if you park near Huong Lan, you should be able to navigate easily (it's in the corner!) This plaza has an ample amount of parking so you won't have to worry about on transportations logistics. The space itself is very brightly lit with green walls and some tables so you can study and work from home from. The menu itself has options for Vietnamese iced coffee, matcha, and non caffeine drinks (a good mix!) if you are interested in matcha, their primary vendor is nami matcha. I decided to order a Pandan matcha latte. I don't see many places in San Jose that serves it (which is surprising!) so I knew I had to go out and try it. I asked the person at the front if it was made with a cream top and they let me know it's from their house made Pandan milk which sold me immediately. It took no longer than 2 minutes to get which I really appreciated! The drink itself is very heavy on the Pandan and is on the sweeter side, just to let you know! When it blends with the matcha, it becomes more mild. That to say, this is more of a Pandan focused drink rather than matcha. If you ever had nha cafe's pandan drink, it is very similar to that. In my personal preference, I wish this drink was less sweet and we could have option to adjust. Overall, I definitely would come back here if I'm in the area and try what else they have to offer. read more

TeaMo is one of many Vietnamese boba tea shop gaining popularity among its devotees. It's specialty pandan matcha/latte alomg with a few Vietnamese street food only which they added banh mi that would have great. TeaMo is tucked away in quite hidden from street traffic though parking is available in this busy shopping mall. Bro and I came by on a Saturday morning and we were greeted very warmly though interior space is quite limited they do have a few tables and seats. I've had matcha before so I got the thai iced tea and Bro hot the passion fruit drink large size regular icecand prices are far more reasonable. Both drinks were refreshing not too sweet and not water down. Would definitely be back best to come early than later on the day particularly on the weekends. read more

I came to try this because there was a promotion from the restaurant next door. I was pleasantly surprised and am glad that first drink was free as I will be back again. The free drink from purchasing Vietnamese sandwiches is the usual fruit tea. I purchased an additional Corn Matcha to try. It was so good. As the other reviews stated, the matcha is good quality. The drinks were prepared quickly and it was nice to see some interesting food snack options too. read more

Came by for their soft opening and the drinks got me so hooked that I came back 3 other times within a week. Look at that matcha color! You can definitely taste the quality and it's the perfect amount of sweetness. I tried most of the drinks and my favorites have to be the pandan coffee, pandan matcha, and matcha latte! Honorable mention to the corn matcha though. I recommend normal 100% sweet for all the drinks. I saw on their IG that they recently launched blueberry and strawberry so I will have to return and try these two new flavors!! Good luck on the Grand Opening on Friday, 5/29! :) read more

The drink didn't cut it for us. The coffee was not strong enough and the added cream top was not creamy. Then there's the matcha it was not present. The drinks were not bad. Just not for our taste. I don't have pics of the two match drinks we got. Ube and pandan read more

Matcha Latte (3.5/5): Solid Matcha Latte, but I wish it was a bit more matcha-y. Also, I got regular ice level, but the drink was 75% full of ice. I finished the drink in about 8-9 sips because most of it was ice. This ice level would make sense in a Vietnamese Iced Coffee, but not in a regular Matcha Latte. Pandan Matcha Latte (4.5/5): I really liked the pandan in this drink. I love that the pandan is infused with the milk and not like other places that use pandan syrup. The matcha paired very well with the overall flavor too. The ice here was also a bit much, but it wasn't as much as my matcha latte. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE! Blueberry Matcha Latte: 5/5 The matcha was very flavorful, not too sweet and not too bitter. The blueberry syrup was the perfect amount of sweetness and was balanced with the matcha. No flavors were overpowering the other! The Harvest: 5/5 pleasantly surprised! It's corn milk with coffee. Honestly to me it tasted like caramel which was super surprising to me but it was so delicious! Saw someone complaining about pre-made batches--most places do batches because of the amount of orders they get, this is not cutting corners especially if it's used within the 24 hours it's made... read more

TeaMo - Blueberry Matcha Latte - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

Don't get fooled by how vibrant green their matcha lattes look. I kept seeing people rave about this place because they use Nami Matcha. I also use Nami Matcha at home, so I expected it to taste similar to what I make myself. I ordered an oat milk matcha latte (which costs an extra $0.75, by the way). The first sip was disappointing. All I tasted was milk and syrup, there was no matcha flavor at all. I mentioned it to the cashier, and she was kind enough to add another shot of matcha. While waiting, I noticed they keep their matcha premade in bottles rather than whisking it fresh to order. Even after the extra shot, the drink still tasted like sweetened milk. That's when it made sense. Matcha quality isn't just about the brand you use.. it's about preparation and the matcha-to-milk ratio. If you're using a premium matcha like Nami, drowning it in milk completely defeats the purpose. It's hard to justify paying $8.80 for a matcha latte when corners are being cut with premade batches. A 30g tin of Nami Matcha costs around $42 and can make several high-quality drinks at home with far better flavor. I took three sips and ended up throwing the drink away. Honestly, you're better off buying a tin of Nami Matcha and making it yourself. This literally ruined my entire morning. Paying $8.80 for an undrinkable drink. read more

Came here during soft opening! I keep seeing this place all over tiktok and Instagram that a new matcha spot opened up in SJ and had to try. I got a blueberry matcha and a pandan matcha, my friend got the blueberry matcha and reg matcha latte. Honestly it was so good... I wanted to gatekeep this place LOL. They use nami matcha for their drinks; you can tell in general they use good quality matcha because the color of the green was vibrant! The flavors of all the drinks. Definitely going to come back again as this will be my new go to matcha spot in the area! :) read more

TeaMo - Blueberry matcha latte w oat milk - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

I went to the grand opening of TeaMo in San Jose with my sister, and we both had such a great first experience! We both ordered the matcha latte, and it was genuinely so good. I especially love that they use Nami Matcha, a brand created by Ashley Alexander (@aaashleyk). I've watched her YouTube videos for a while and have always wanted to try her matcha, but it's usually sold out--so finding it here was such a nice surprise. We also shared a side of tater tots as a snack, and they were perfect with the drinks. The staff were super kind as well and even gave us a free sticker, which was a really sweet touch. The space is on the smaller side, but there's plenty of parking around the area, which makes it easy to visit. Since it was their opening, the menu is still a bit limited, but they already have a nice variety and seem like they'll be expanding more flavors soon. They currently offer a tea series like (mango, lychee, strawberry, peach, passion fruit, jasmine milk tea, and black milk tea), a matcha series (matcha latte, pandan matcha latte, corn matcha latte), coffee options (including Vietnamese-style drinks like bạc xỉu and cà phê sữa đá), plus non-caffeinated drinks like strawberry mint lemonade, corn latte with cream top, and house horchata. For snacks, they have tater tots, fries, popcorn chicken, and Vietnamese bites like bánh khọt and bánh bột chiên. Overall, it's a really cute spot with great potential, especially if you're a matcha or tea lover. I'd definitely come back to try more from their menu as they expand! read more

TeaMo - Matcha lattes - Cafes Near Me - San Jose, California

My brother and I came across this spot on Instagram and decided to check it out. I ordered the pandan matcha, while he got the apple cloud matcha. Pandan matcha is usually my go-to whenever I visit a matcha shop, and I really enjoyed their version. It had a great balance of pandan and matcha flavors without being overly sweet or overpowering. We were both impressed by the apple cloud matcha. It was a combination neither of us had tried before, and it turned out to be incredibly refreshing. The apple complemented the matcha well without overpowering it, creating a unique and well-balanced drink. I've had Nami Matcha before and have always have looked forward to see how cafes use this matcha brand. This visit definitely lived up to my expectations, and I'm excited to come back and try more from their menu. Highly recommend for matcha lovers looking for something a little different! read more

TeaMo is located near Huong Lan Sandwiches on Tully rd which makes it very convenient to grab a drink when I'm looking for banh mi or other viet deli options. This was my first time trying Nami Matcha and I'm pleasantly surprised. I ordered the corn matcha latte and the pandan matcha latte less sweet. Corn matcha has a strong corn flavor but the matcha was still there. It's the best of both worlds if you are a fan of sweet corn milk and matcha. The pandan milk in the pandan matcha didn't shine through as much as I was hoping for but I really liked the matcha latte anyway. It had that perfect balance of not too sweet but not too harsh either. I'd get this drink again. Plenty of tables for seating in the shop. My drinks came out very fast when I sat down. They have a limited menu for their soft opening phase but I look forward to trying other drinks as well! read more
