    Caramel milk was good. Not too sweet. It was not busy on a Sunday afternoon, service was quick. Ambiance was casual and comfortable. The heater can be adjusted to a lower degree.

    Silky Mango, Dirty Ube
    Teev R.

    As a boba enthusiast, their signature flavors are fun to try, but at their prices it is a luxury for me. Setting: Very modern, aesthetically pleasing interior. There are games available indoors where folks of all ages can indulge. Service: When asked for drink advice the waiter was sarcastic and it wasn't very helpful leading me to not be satisfied with the order. Drinks: I got the Silky Mango and Dirty Ube. The mango was smooth, but too milky; the Ube was amazing, creamy, and had a round finish.

    I wanted a hot drink and also wanted to try the seasonal Ube Astra. My son wanted boba. We have been here many times. Ordered online and came in for pickup around 7:15pm on a Tuesday night. We were the only ones here. Everything went smoothly! I am a regular at Teaspoon and I also have been to many branches of Teaspoon. Service was good and atmosphere of this store is nice. Check out this branch if you haven't.

    I ordered a strawberry colada with honey boba which was extra. You have to wait for 15-20 mins to get your drink. They have some games that you can play while waiting for your drink. Also they have free wifi. This place is always full. Their drinks taste heavenly undoubtedly, but I find the place a bit pricey.

    As much as I wanted to write a positive review, not sure if my first visit would entice me to come back. The gentleman taking our order was pleasant. The place is pretty roomy for a boba spot. Yet their bathroom had hand written signs. One saying out of order and another saying employees only. We ordered a taro lover with honey boba and a dirty ube coffee. My son wasn't a fan of his taro drink and he loves taro drinks. He said it was just okay. Now for my dirty ube, it was just coffee. I think they forgot to add the ube. Even before, while, and after shaking it, no hint of purple in it to be seen. The coffee was good but it's not what I ordered. And paid more for it. I was bummed.

    Toppings

    If you want your boba fix, Teaspoon is a decent place to get it! Service is okay. They don't go above and beyond, they just do their job. Seems like they don't really want to be there but they try. Inside has a lot of space and the outside has a table in front. I needed some energy after a TJ's run, so I wanted to try the Red Bull Cocolada. They don't use all the Red Bull, so they give you the can with the rest. You're allowed to add 3 different toppings, so I picked Mango stars, lychee and coconut. They don't hold back with the toppings! They give a lot. The combination of the drink and toppings tasted really good. Reminded me of the islands. The coconut is pretty faint but you can taste it. Would come back to try other drinks because they all looked really good!

    Teaspoon is always convenient after picking up kids from school. Love the drink selections, and some of them allow sweetness to be adjusted. Not just tea here, but coffee and fruit flavors as well.

    ***3.5. Stars*** After going to TJ, I needed some caffeine. Ordered the Dirty Ube for myself and my DD ordered the Ruby Fizz. Loved the Ruby Fizz. Nicely sweetened with bits of lychee. The Dirty Ube was a thirst quenching drink. However, there wasn't much ube flavor. Coffee was mild and not too strong

    You can order at the kiosk if there's a line or you can go up to the counter. Both times I have been there, it wasn't too crowded and I was able to go to the counter to order. You can choose a sweetness level if you want to customize your drink. I prefer a jasmine green tea unsweetened and they are able to do that for me. - Contactless payment is encouraged. - Go to the end of the counter and wait for them to call your name. - I prefer the drinks over the snacks. I ordered a mochi donut and it was on the dry side. - The space is very clean. Seating is limited to outside, though that may be subject to change depending on the COVID rules.

    I live by here but I rarely come here, not sure why. I used to go more to study however it's been a while. I came by because my food across the street had a forty minute wait, but the server was nice and the drink was refreshing. It was clean inside and cool so it's good to avoid the heat.

    The best idea to get a iced drink on a hot day. I came in for my birthday drink. They cover up $6 and I pay the difference if the drinks price is higher. I am glad that I ordered online. This place was packed with people. Walk in and out to pick up. Tried the ube dirty latte. It's supposed to have ube taste, but it tastes like regular sweeten coffee to me. I wish the ube taste can be stronger. I would opt for something else next time.

    Ehh service has changed... previously service has been exceptional, fast, and friendly... now its just mediocre. Workers seem to not really care, nor want to be there, just going through the motions, waiting to clock out. Drinks: 1. Seasonal Pumpkin King {2/5 stars, $5} - Was a disappointment. Could barely taste the delicious rich, roasted flavor of the oolong tea. The pumpkin creme was very watered down and diluted. It was also gritty... Not very good at all. 2. Grass hopper {3/5 stars, $6} - Too sweet even with less sweet. Tastes very artificial and has a sour tea flavor... Service: Mediocre. Slow service with no one in front of us. Three baristas and took about 7 mins for two drinks. The employees were very unfriendly and seemed to be annoyed with working. Overall: Just ok. Was better a year ago with friendly service and helpful employees. I guess the franchise ownership has changed... or something.

    Ask the Community - Teaspoon

    For the virgin mojito, can I add both lychee and strawberry flavoring or just one flavoring?

    Sorry..adding both strawberry and lychee will over power the mojito flavor.

    Could i substitute black tea rather than oolong for the liquid gold? i'd love to order it bcoz i love honey but i don't rly like oolong

    Yes, just ask the friendly tea-persons and they will whip it up for you.

    Do they have free wi-fi? Is that a good place to study?

    Yes, there is free wifi. They play music in the background, but not too loud, so you can still study. Comfy seating, spacious tables, and convenient charging ports.

    We were looking for a treat on a warm afternoon and I remembered there was a shaved ice place near…read morethe outlets. Waze got a little confused and took us miles away but we eventually found it. Located in the Ross shopping center across the street from the outlets. I had read that it takes time for the employees to complete your order so we were prepared for the wait. There were three families ahead of us and I was pleasantly surprised that it only took 9 minutes for us to get to the front of the line to order. Not bad at all! You can choose up to three flavors for your shaved ice. We ordered: - "Pick-Me-Up" with snow cap and coconut ice cream - green tea, coffee, and coconut flavors - Mango, red raspberry, and coconut flavors Their menu takes you through the five steps of placing your order so for a first time visitor, the process is easy. They also have favorite combos listed that you can choose. We waited for our order to be completed and then we went outside to sit at a table under the tent. They poke holes in the shaved ice for more flavor all the way through. Our shaved ice was refreshing and my husband loved his Pick-Me-Up, especially the coconut ice cream. Music is playing outside and it was quite pleasant under the tent in the shade. To move the line along faster, they have menus available outside. This is definitely a popular spot. All the tables inside were occupied so the extra seating outside really helps. Plenty of parking in the huge lot.

Amazing fluffy ice with powerful and amazing flavors that don't taste fake artificial even though they are basically syrup LOL. The mango and coconut and passionfruit that I got was amazing. The sparkling soda was also good. I kept getting mango or passionfruit because it was just such a good combination. My friends love it here. One got her Lucky Charm ice which had ube ice cream and what tasted like cotton candy ice. Not my thing, but she liked it. My other friend got their tropical flavor with cream. Be prepared for the long lines, but as they say, it's worth it.

A…read moresolid place for bingsu, but I cannot give this place any higher than 3 stars due to the price, quality, and service. I came around 6:50PM on a Saturday and there was a small line for the order kiosk. After I ordered, there were a limited number of seats since people tend to hangout in friend groups and treat it as their 3rd space, so be prepared to fight for a table if you're coming during peak times. I sat down and realized they were a whole 10+ orders behind, meaning I waited at least 25mins before getting my bingsu! I ordered a honeydew yogurt bingsu and it was $20. Inflation may be a little crazy, but this was a little above what I was expecting. It came with about 1/2's worth of honeydew. The bowl was not topped with bingsu, and I felt like there are more melons than bingsu (not ok). There were some sweet cheese pieces inside (yummy), some unsweetened frozen yogurt, and the rest was yogurt flavored bingsu. Although healthy, the bingsu itself was NOT sweet enough and I felt sick after eating so much unsweetened yogurt. I wish they gave us a cup of condensed milk like they do at every other bingsu place... Service was slow and everything is self serve, from getting your bingsu at the front to bussing your tray. I do believe there are other bingsu spots in Bay Area that give a similar experience with more variety and better pricing. I do not look forward to waiting almost 30min after spending $20 for a bingsu that's only half bingsu with honeydew layered on top.

It's very minimal since it's ordering then self serving. The order did take pretty long considering there was only a couple other folks inside. I would suggest be very careful when picking up your tray with bingsu because it tends to slide around the tray very easily. I almost dropped mine but luckily didn't. Maybe I'll come back to try the mango next time since it's a popular order.
