There were lots of seating with a long table at the center and smaller tables against the walls. There was a good selection of drinks, but they tend to stay towards the sweet side. I got a wintermelon milk tea with 50% sweetness, but it tasted as if I asked for sugar beyond 100%. I would recommend asking for low sugar! Service was fast and kind. There was not anything special, it's what you would assume regular service to be.
Since 09/15, this place has not been open. There's no sign or notice at the door, but the self-order kiosks and decorations have already been removed, and even the chairs are gone. It really looks like the business might be permanently closed. Before heading over, I'd strongly recommend calling first to confirm.
Drinks were yummy but ordered at half sweet and still think it could be less sweet for next time I go back. Ordered the matcha dalgona and sea salt oolong tea.
This local milk tea spot is great for drinks and spacious for groups. I got the sunset matcha that combines matcha and strawberry in the drink. It's SO good! They have a deal currently that's buy 3 get one free! The people behind the counter are super nice too. Definitely will come back to try the other sunrise matcha drink.
We got here about an hour before closing and they were super nice to still make us drinks. Drinks - 4/5 - I ordered a lychee rose green tea and it wasn't too sweet. Just the right amount of fruity and floral. The tea wasn't too strong either. I saw that they had a lot of different options for drinks so there's definitely something for everyone. Price - $$ - as expected for a boba shop. nothing too crazy. roughly $5-7 bucks for a drink after tax, depending on what you order. Service - 5/5 - The cashier was super friendly despite us walking in so late. They were really kind and patient as we looked over the menu. Location - 5/5 - Located in quite a big plaza, there seems to be plenty of parking. Ambience - 5/5 - the vibe is really casual. it seems like a good spot to hang out with friends or even study?
Been here in the past and the drinks were good but today not so much. The jasmine rose tasted weird and when I told them I didn't like it and wanted a new one they looked at me weird instead of just saying sorry and making me a new one. Didn't like the employees attitude towards fixing my drink and the new one they made was still just ok. Been a repeat customer but won't be coming back.
This is a such a cute spot in Simi. The prices aren't too bad and the drinks always come out amazing. The staff has always been super friendly in my opinion and always walk me through their recommendations when I ask. I've tried several of their drinks my favorite is the lychee yogurt or the oolong with cheese foam. Definitely recommend!!
It had a been a long time since I had a Boba drink and I happened to be in the area so I looked on Yelp and found Ice Bar. First time visiting I was completely clueless as to what to order, but after looking at the menu and Yelp pics, I decided to make my own blended drink. The server was very patient and was very helpful and said he could customize anything for me. I decided on a blended Brown Sugar Boba with Oat milk, and it was delicious!! To be honest I thought it was a little pricey because it came out to around $8 but it was very good. The place was a bit dark inside but very roomy with lots of seating. I would recommend if you don't mind the price point. Very friendly staff was a plus.
Was craving some drinks late night with my friend, we decided to pull up to the ice bar at 11pm. Location was in a semi sketchy plaza, ambiance wasn't any better as it looked barely furnished. Prices were not reasonable but I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt. I ordered a taro smoothie with soy milk (which was a $1.00 up charge ) my total came out to almost 9 dollars not including tip. Waited probably 12 minutes for my drink, which wouldn't be a problem but considering there weren't many people I was a bit skeptical as to why. Honestly when I did get my drink it wasn't anything special and I could get something way better at just any regular boba shop.
Their fries are fresh + crunchy (not pictured)! Definitely worth a try. The atmosphere is spacious and a great place to study or catch up with friends! Staff is nice and service is decent. Would recommend giving the Sunset Matcha a try. Not too sweet and not too bitter. The Matcha smoothie was a bit bland but I'm willing to give it another try if I visit again.
Great place for my large groups of friends to go after our meeting that ends at 9:30. I was looking for a place that closes late and can accommodate a bigger party. The food was okay. We got okonomi fries and the popcorn chicken and it was very average. The drinks were also not super great and the fruit flavors were all from syrups but for a late night snack I thought it did well. I'm mostly happy about the space and the late hours.
these drinks were pretty good and the service is quick. i tried the fruit tea drinks and they were refreshing. (i usually get less sweet) it is a nice study place and has plugs along the walls. you can usually find a spot.
Came here to try it for the first time I like how it was buy 2 get one free Amazing drink I'll be back soon !!!!!!!

At 9:42 i submitted an order for pickup. I received a ready time of 10:45 pm. Fair enough. I walk inside... seems relatively busy, i go to the front counter and tell the cashier that i am there to pickup my order. He smiles and says the blender is down for the night. I say, "what does that mean??" He said they can only make 1 of my 3 drinks and i would have to choose 2 more that are not blended. I tell him to give me a dew minutes, i then proceed to request 2 new drinks... he then tells me they are out of boba. At this point i told him to just give me 2 random drinks. I am not going to sit there all night only to be told they are out of stuff or their machines are not working. One blender? I mean if this is your bread and butter, i would suggest getting a 2nd blender, even if it's a crappy one from Walmart for $35. This is like a hamburger stand telling you they don't have a grill to make a burger. Also, out of boba on a Tuesday (off night??) Stock up. Who's doing inventory? I was more angry at the fact that they let over 30 minutes go by and didn't tell me via email or phone call that the blender was down. I would canceled my order and promptly received a refund... i hope. I wasn't offered any kind of remedy. No partial refund, no refund, no extra drinks. Just your kinda outta luck. We don't have the proper tools to make you a drink. I will never return here again. I used to like this place and even used to come here when they offered 3 drinks for the price of 2. After spending $20 on 3 drinks (2 of them not even being my choice). I will forever skip this place for the humongous disappointment and terrible service. There are boba places all around this area. Do yourself a favor and skip this one. read more

Went here on a Sunday evening, an hour before closing. I've been here before and remembered their boba was decent, so I decided to bring my boyfriend here. When we arrived, we noticed that it was extremely spacious inside but there were only two other customers. I remembered it being pricey, but when we saw the menu; it was more expensive than I remembered. Despite the price, I still wanted to give it a try. I ordered the Brown Sugar Matcha & my boyfriend ordered the Wintermelon Milk Tea. My drink tasted great the first sip, but after mixing it, it just tasted like milk. As for the Wintermelon, it was extremely sweet and did not taste like wintermelon at all. Don't think I will be coming back here, but asking customers for certain sweetness levels, lowering the prices, and creating a better interior will give justice to the store and make up for the prices. I do not understand paying $16+ for two drinks. I understand that they were about to close, but I didn't think the late hour would affect our experience at the store. Highly recommend other boba places around the area and nearby cities. read more

I want to give this place a 4 star but the ambiance was not welcoming when we walked in. The location was poorly lit and when we walked in, there was someone who took a nap in one of the booths. We thought it was one of the employees. So it was quite off putting. There was a distinct smell but we think it's from the renovation, the cleaner they use, or the paint. Pricing wise, their toppings are $1 each so I can see where that adds up pretty quickly. We got a Pineapple Green Tea with a Jelly topping and Almond Milk Tea with Cheese Foam. Taste wise, they use real fruit for the Pineapple Green Tea so we loved that. The Almond Milk Tea with Cheese Foam was surprisingly a good pairing. Overall, we would come here for drinks but not to ever sit and work or enjoy a cup of tea or boba with friends. The ambiance needs a lot of work. read more

I'm not a fan of milk tea but this one is good. The place is casual, nice and clean. Service was fast even with a lot of people inside. read more
So more and more Asian tea shops offer organic milk these days. We ordered pickup from Yelp and it took a bit more time for our orders to get ready. The brown sugar boba and matcha latte with organic milk were fresh and tasty. Since I asked light sweet so they were refreshing enough. The prices were about the same as Urth caffe but the sizes of the drinks were much bigger. A good choice for milk tea drinks whenever we are in this area. read more
I visited Ice Bar with a friend at night, as it was one of the few places open after 10pm. I would consider the location a little hard to find at night but depending on the amount of people inside can transition rather quickly from a quiet environment to one that's rather noisy. I was eager to try the featured avocado slushie but was told that they were sold out, so I went with the horchata milk tea along with one of the top items, the okonomo (sp?) fries. Overall, my experience was pretty average, from the wait time to the food. The fries were average "cafe" fries that were average, and the horchata milk tea was a little watery. The boba was a little soggy and did not have the slightly chewy texture that I had would have preferred. read more
Recently visited for a late night meet up with friends. Unfortunately, not only do they not offer indoor seating still, but they also don't allow customers to use their restroom.. I ordered the kumquat tea with green tea as the base, and added lychee jelly. I had recently ordered the same thing from a different tea shop and thought it would be similar, but was thrown off. I didn't taste any kumquat and it tasted more like a watered down green tea. Another downside, similar to other reviews, you will leave with a fried food stench since it smells like it inside. Not the best experience, but it'll do if nothing else is open. read more

Big space, great boba. It was fresh, warm, & flavor was great. I had the jasmine rose milk tea with oatmilk & it was pretty good. I wanted a little more rose taste in mine. Service was friendly. Ambiance was chill- people were hanging out on a Sunday evening in here. I would come back if I lived here! read more

I think they have a solid house milk tea and the boba is consistently good. They are usually pretty quick to get orders out as well. Also a ton of parking in front. Lots of places to sit. read more

Not many places are still open past 9 pm, so one late night when I saw that this place was open until midnight everyday, I figured that I would try it out. I ordered the Brown Sugar Roasted Oolong Tea ($4.80) with Honey Boba (65 cents). I also got my drink half sweetened as I usually do. Their "less" sweetened is at 70% sweet. I've also tried the Taro Milk Tea ($4.70). This is one of the rare occasions where I probably should have gotten my tea a bit more sweeter. The tea was very strong, which is good because you pay for the flavor, but even for me I could have made it a bit more sweet to balance out the bitterness. The taro milk tea that I tried was good the way it was though. The honey boba was pretty good. It was really nice and soft and you can definitely taste the honey. We came a little bit past 9 pm on a weekday night, so it wasn't busy at all, although there were a couple other people also in at that time. Service was fast and friendly, and we were in and out of the shop in less than 5 minutes. As far as covid regulations they supply paper towels on the outside so that you can use them to open their door. The place markers on the floor 6' apart, and they have acrylic barriers to separate the customers from the registers. They also have automatic hand sanitizers on the side. read more

COVID-19 safety: Safety guidelines were followed. Workers were all wearing a mask. Location: Parking was very convenient although the shop itself was a bit hard to find as it was located in the corner. Drinks: It was my first time here and I tried the cheese foam jasmine milk tea. The boba was good but the cheese foam was not what I had expected. I couldn't really taste the cream cheese foam. Not sure what it was but there was some artificial taste to it. My drink came out to be $6 which is a bit more pricier than other places. I personally don't think this place is worth it. The drinks do look aesthetic though so if you are going for the looks then this is the place for you. Overall: It was an average boba place. Looks good but did not live up to the expectation. read more
