Time to Order: 7 Minutes We stopped into Tobi's on the way home from a failed fishing trip up north and were craving something sweet. Holy moly, what a hidden gem. I tried the creme brulee pearl latte (my friend's which he ordered by accident) and the dalgona honeycomb toffee latte with boba (my drink). The creme brulee pearl latte was probably the best creme brulee drink I've ever had. I usually avoid these because they're overly sweet, but this one actually hit all of the notes of smokiness, creaminess, and flavor without overpowering sweetness. Actually impressive. The dalgona honeycomb toffee latte was phenomenal. Strong coffee flavor (which means a lot coming from me - only Vietnamese coffee affects me anymore, I have a strong caffeine tolerance) and the toffee is a great topping that retains its texture even after the drink is completed. The boba texture was perfect in a cold drink, the toppings were unique, and the drinks were excellent. Highly recommend as a hidden gem.

The girls at the front were so friendly and nice - they made my experience great. Service was incredibly fast. The drink was ready before I even finished paying! I got the toffee milk tea with matcha jelly at 30% sugar and 70% ice. This was the IDEAL combination. Perfectly sweet with a hint of the bitterness from the tea. The matcha jelly was firm and earthy, I broke it up with the straw and it was the perfect topping. One of the best milk teas I've had in a while. I will definitely be back to try their other flavors. I'm a huge fan of the tea jelly toppings and it's so refreshing on a hot day.

You can order at a kiosk or at the cashier's station…read more I got the Golden Buckwheat Tea Latte (L, 10% sugar, 30% ice, boba) and the House Blend Pearl Milk Tea (L, 10% sugar, 30% ice, comes with boba). The boba here is perfectly chewy and sweetened. I am not much of a jelly person, but they're pretty good too. I once got a drink with both boba and jelly and it didn't leave much room for the tea, so I have to limit myself to one topping now! The black tea is slightly muted with the milk there, so that there's no astringency. The buckwheat tea has a pretty strong toasty buckwheat flavor. Yum! Initially, when this business opened, parking was horrible with people jousting for street parking (with an already busy Goodwill down the street) and people parking at the plaza across the street (which will get you towed). Now that the hype has died down, you can use the Ember parking garage around the corner, although it's kind of annoying to park in.

As the frugal pros say, never shop with an empty stomach! I got to try two drinks: the Fatbee milk tea and jasmine green milk tea, both with less ice, brown sugar boba, less ice, and 50% sweet. Fatbee uses condensed/evaporated milk in their milk teas, so it gives a really thick, luxurious mouthfeel when you drink it. It makes you want to savor the drink instead of gulping it down. 50% sweet is perfect since the brown sugar boba is already sweetened and gives the drink the perfect balance. The tea flavor really comes through and isn't lost among the milk and sugar. The boba is very bouncy and chewy. It's amazing. I'll be returning!

Huge plaza area so there's ample parking. Fatbee Milk Tea w/ Boba - boba was decent. Chewy but not particularly flavorful, could be marinated longer. Tea was a classic house black tea with creamer.

Both the taro and ube nuttiness were shining and the coldness was soothing. Honestly such a refreshing and addicting drink, I snagged another one for the trip home. Highly recommend.

Fortunately, there was no traffic so it was a 20 min drive easily. However, a lot seemed to have changed from about a year ago? We got popcorn chicken which was $9 for a very tiny plate (like the medium size sampler food container you get at food tasting events) which is a joke of a portion, and the chicken was not even good quality - heavy on the batter. Compared to pictures a year ago, where the portions looked much much larger. They are so stingy on the amount of chicken, that I thought they were giving us a sample to try before they make a real batch lmaooooo. I tried the Kocochi milk tea with creme brulee, boba, jelly, etc. Sounds good on paper, inflation I get it, was expecting $7 but it was $8, plus tax, so it is actually not that competitive of a price anymore now that I think about it. I could get a very good quality boba drink for $7.50+tax elsewhere without all the fancy toppings, but with boba included. I was pretty disappointed with the quality. The boba is so overcooked that it is mushy, and the creme brulee was not thick enough that I have to use a spoon to even be able to get any of it out (instead of being able to drink it from the other side which is what it is supposed to be). I'd avoid this place unless this is a one off but I will need to be redeemed a better experience before recommending this place. There are better options in the area

Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #62…read more Sharetea is one of those franchises that can really vary in quality between locations. I'm usually hesitant to visit because I find a lot of them to be below average, but decided to give this one a try anyways. Classic Black Milk Tea, 50% Sugar, Less Ice w/ Boba ($5.80) - As with most Sharetea locations, the milk tea here is exceptionally rich with powdered creamer. It's almost a little too much, with a creamer taste that almost completely overwhelms the tea, not to mention the drink leaving a film on the tongue with each sip. Still, it's smooth rather than being gritty, a sign of everything being well incorporated. Sharetea is quite generous with the toppings, giving a lot of pretty decent boba. They are very consistent in size and shape and have a good chew that bounces back quite readily. It's among the best textures for boba I've found in a US based Sharetea. Milk Tea Rating: 3/5 Boba Rating: 4/5 I found this Sharetea to be one of the better locations I've been to. There are other boba shops in the area that I'd choose over Sharetea, but it's certainly not a bad visit. Bathrooms - IIRC one unisex room

Angela was very kind and even offered us a free taste of their new Korean Fried Chicken! It was so delicious, we're definitely coming back to try it again next time! The chicken teriyaki is very good but the sauce is the best! It's savory and has a bit of little bit of sweetness that makes it amazing! I think the portion sizes are very generous for the price, the chicken completely covered my rice and I had enough leftover to ask for a takeout box after lunch.

Even when ordering in person, there's signs saying waits can be 30-45 minutes which caused some people to walk out. Wow is located along other shops and a gas station. You'll notice then with lots of smoke coming out from the roof as they're nonstop grilling. Parking is easy but can quickly run out. Upon entering, all the tables were occupied but no one was eating - everyone was waiting for their orders to go. I ordered a chicken teriyaki and the portion was large (looked like about 3 chicken thighs) which makes it worth the $17 price tag. The chicken is pretty charred so if you like that then you'll like wow. What's different about wow is that their chicken is drizzled with a thicker teriyaki sauce and a watery teriyaki sauce is provided on the side. Overall, wow teriyaki was good but I prefer Toshi's in the area more (personal preference).

Delivery review In…read moreshort This is about the chicken, which bumps up the rating quite a bit. Fantastic fried chicken. In long This place is listed on delivery apps as Kami Fried Chicken and Teriyaki. The chicken from here was absolutely fantastic, but the sides were ordinary. I don't know how quickly I'd reach for sushi here--looks like they might do some stuff way better than others. Miso Soup I'll be horrified if I ever find a place that messes up miso. This was really good, always hits the spot. Veggie (Stir Fried / Steamed) Soggy and overly sweet. Don't bother. Ika Karaage (Calamari) Crazy chewy. Looks amazing in the photos, looked great when I opened the clamshell. Couldn't even finish a bite. Crispy Soy Garlic Chicken Star of the show without a doubt! We talked ourselves into this before I stopped to think that $25 seemed a little high for 10 pieces, then we saw the order--huge box, super heavy. Opened it up and found gigantic full drums, not drumettes. They must be ordering the better bags of chicken from whomever they use as a supplier, because these are the biggest drums and legs I've seen in forever. One order in, with just one flavor chosen, and these folks are already high in the running for top chicken around here. Great flavor, just crispy enough, not heavy on the batter at all, steaming hot, tons of moisture inside. It would have been really easy to overeat because it was so good, but there are still 3 pieces in the fridge downstairs 'cause it was just so much food.

Now, while I love me some sushi, I'm a sucker for fried chicken, especially Korean fried chicken. We've never been here before so with a little free time and some hunger pangs we decided to give Kami a try despite a 5 Guys next door (and I do love me a good burger). "Walking in first impression", nice, clean and the wonderful aroma of fried chicken and teriyaki! It wasn't crowded and the digital menu was simple, with many choices, but at the same time not overwhelming. As for prices, maybe it's because of the current financial/political environment, but while not the premium prices of a fancy restaurant, I would gauge it at mid to upper mid in prices. In the end though, I would say definitely worth it. We were greeted by a nice gentleman who was polite, kindly and did not ever made us feel rushed. So we were able to peruse the menu and debate choices with out any pressure. We put in our order, tofu yakisoba, 10 piece garlic soy Korean fried chicken (choice of 5, 10 and 20 piece), side of fries and a pop. We were told about 15 minutes, which was fine. That said to me that our meal was made to order so hot and fresh. Honestly we didn't know what to expect as this was our first visit. So when the food was served! Oh, the smile on my face. I was caught off guard on the portion and on top of that a wonderful presentation of color and aroma! The one thing I guess that kinda threw me off was in my mind I was thinking of maybe fried chicken strips so when 10 big fat drumsticks/wings showed up! I was like DAMN! The side of fries was more like a mound and the serving of yakisoba was OUTSTANDING! As for the taste, HOLE-LEE-FISH! Probably one of the best fried chicken I've had in a long time. Crispy, full of flavor and not just fried chicken with some sauce poured over it like some places do, but nice, marinated and oh so GOOD! There are several other flavors I need to try, but I highly recommend the Soy Garlic. The tofu yakisoba was made perfect! Not dry, not too saucy, but, perfect! Not to mention flavor, so good! Now I wouldn't order tofu on my own, my wife ordered this dish, but even w/o the protein, this was super TASTEY! Imagine if it was beef, chicken or pork! But you know, the tofu was pretty damn good too! That, with yakisoba noodles, the crisp vegetables and the sauce, I definitely recommend this dish as well. As for the French fries, some damn good fries, definitely fresh out of the fryer for sure. Like burn the top of your mouth hot. God I love hot fries. So much better than warm fries or luke-warm to cold fries. Remember how I mentioned the 15 minute wait, made to order? Yeah, everything was so hot! Fresh off the pan, no sitting around, no waiting, no heat lamps! Definitely worth a bit of a wait for this quality of food. So needless to say we ended up taking some home, no complaints there. Recommend, unless you are seriously hungry to order the 5 piece chicken if you don't want to share or have left overs. And prepare for family style so sharing is caring. There will definitely be enough to share and go around. Will be going back to try several other things on the menu for sure! Kami Fried Chicken and Teriyaki, BIG THUMBS UP!
