    Chk chk boom Taiwanese popcorn chicken. So good!!!
    Rhealynn N.

    They have such a large menu of delicious looking drinks so it was so hard to pick! But the owner was such a sweet lady and so helpful. It's tough to find a boba shop that serves Taiwanese popcorn chicken with actual basil especially down South so if you have a craving you don't have to drive all the way up to Convoy! I'll be sure to come back to try out the other drinks!

    Everyone working is so sweet!! They always know my order when I go!! A side from that the food/drinks are incredibly amazing I really like all of them!

    Heard about this boba spot that does kpop inspired drinks and events and have been wanting to try it! They have an extensive variety of kpop inspired drinks and lots of events for different groups' comebacks and anniversaries. You get your choice of cup sleeve and banner with every drink. The lady at the cashier was sweet and gave us some freebies! I had the Fall In Love Again (raspberry lemon cream smoothie with strawberry jelly) which was pretty good! My sister had the Romance: Untold (mango vanilla milk tea with strawberry jelly) but it was kinda light in flavor. Both drinks were not too sweet. They were on the pricier side but the cups are huge! I love that their drinks are kpop inspired and they have so many kpop events there, so cool!

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while and was in the area, very easy to find parking. Service was great and very friendly, and they gave us our choice of Kpop banner and cupsleeve with our purchase. The lady at the cashier was very kind and also gave us some extra freebies! I ordered the Romance: Untold (mango vanilla milk tea with strawberry jelly) and it was yummy but could use more flavor. I also enjoyed the Fall In Love Again (raspberry lemon cream smoothie with strawberry jelly) my sister ordered. They are a bit pricier but the size is big. I love how their drinks are kpop-inspired and would love to visit for more events!

    A random stop in this shopping center off the freeway turned into a nice surprise. We felt so welcomed by the owners of this cute, well-maintained K-Pop themed, drink, and dessert shop! The charming and delightful woman greeted us right away and asked if we had any questions about the many offerings they had. There is so much to choose from! My company made their choices from the pictures posted on the windows. Freshly made Hong Kong egg waffle ice cream cups, with their choice of ice cream and chocolate or caramel drizzle on top, and for drinks, Fruit burst with rainbow popping boba. I couldn't decide at first, but she suggested some things, and I told her I wanted something not overly sweet. I went with the Coco Nuts about You drink. Everything was made to order and tasted sublime. We will be back to try more from the menu, like the Jiggly Cake. Thank you, U Dessert Eats!

    This boba shop gives off college dorm room KPOP lover vibes! The menu was a bit overwhelming; you have to look at 3-4 different screens to see what they have, so it took us awhile to order.. Drinks are a tad pricy, and we waited over 30 min for our order -- we felt bad as there was only one employee and of course everyone showed up at once. Drinks were pretty tasty, but the ice cream waffle was my favorite part of the order! It was light and fluffy, plenty of ice cream options, and big enough to share between 2-3 people.

    Cute place, inside seating. Friendly service. The owner was kind and explained waffle to us. Very helpful and informative. So many variety of drinks and desserts to choose. I ordered the Klaxon- Mango cream smoothie with condensed milk. And my Son ordered the cookies n cream with chocolate drizzle waffle. My smoothie was a good portion size. The mango flavor was so intense. I am a mango lover and it was definitely delicious. A refreshing drink for sure. My Son had the waffle dessert and he said he loves it very much. The waffle compliments with the ice cream. You have a choice of different flavor ice cream to choose. Or you can order the waffle alone. You will not be disappointed

    Seen this place on Instagram and I'm so glad we were finally able to go! The place was pretty empty so we were able to place and receive our order pretty quickly. We ordered two drinks and a HK Egg Waffle with ice cream and they were all tasty. Our drinks were Lalalalala and Back For More and they were delicious! I would definitely try it again the next time I'm in the area.

    It feels like you're at a college dorm room blasting K pop music with BTS all over the walls. They have so many choices on the menu that I didn't know what to get. They had March favorites, April favorites, signature drinks, top 10 drinks, HK waffles. I normally get some sort of milk tea but decided to do fruit tea this time. I got winter melon ($6.89) from the top 10 menu. It came with coco pineapple jelly bits already. It's flavored winter melon so it had that syrupy earthy herbal taste. My BF got Happiness which was mango kiwi green tea with coco pineapple bits. This one had a mixture of sweet and sour. They sell desserts like HK puffle waffle with ice cream and jiggly cake ($12.99). I didn't want to get the cake but my BF wanted to support a small business so we ended up getting the cake which I regret. It wasn't good. Yes it was jiggle when you shake the box but it was a dry knock off version of Sara Lee pound cake. Parking in this plaza was easy. Tapioca Express is a few doors down. For the price, I would say it's worth it because you can get the same mixture at another place in Clairemont for $8-11. I find this place just average and feel like we need to give it another try because I just don't see the equivalent of 5 star review that others wrote.

My friends and I were just looking to get a coffee in Little Italy, but when we walked in and saw all the delicious treats we had to try something else as well. I ordered a latte and neglected to tell them it was for here so I was given a paper cup, but they give real cups if you ask. The latte was good, and my friend bought a kitchen sink type cookie with chocolate, coconut, and macadamia nuts. It was warm and gooey good! Another friend tried the gelato and said it was very good. There are a few tables inside and tables out in front outside. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful San Diego weather. The decor and tables definitely gives you an old school Italian neighborhood vibe with Italian markets right next door.

Pizza was good, but soggy in the middle. The pasta was good, no complaints there. The sandwich was very lacking in the meat department... It was basically a bread and arugula sandwich. Had very low expectations for the gelato to begin with seeing as the colors were extremely unnatural and the way it was heaped was a clear indication to me that it is not legitimate gelato and unfortunately, I was proven very right. I got the strawberry so that my toddler could have a few few bites and it was so unnatural and weird tasting that she didn't even want any... And if that doesn't say something! My husband got the coffee flavor and he literally took three bites and threw it away as well. I will say, though, on the food front, the prices are reasonable here all things considered, but maybe stick with pasta... based on everything As a whole though, you can likely get a much more legitimate Italian meal somewhere else in the area, but it will probably cost you more.

The chicken parm was AMAZING. Great portion, great price point, and the whole plate had that homemade comfort-food feel. I'm certainly not an expert on Italian cooking, but it tasted like somebody's Nonna was in the back making sure everybody ate good. The rigatoni with the red sauce alongside it was simple, hearty, and exactly what I wanted. I sat outside on the patio because the weather was beautiful, and it made for a really nice lunch. My server was pleasant, attentive, and welcoming, and overall the restaurant had that casual neighborhood feel that I love nothing overly complicated or pretentious, just really good food at a really reasonable price. My ONLY tiny disappointment and this is probably more about me than them is that I'm a hot-tea-after-my-meal person. I asked about hot tea and they didn't have any hot beverages available. Yes, I realize it was a warm San Diego afternoon and I'm probably the strange one asking for a steaming cup of tea. But give me a little Earl Grey after that chicken parm and I would've been completely set! Otherwise, no complaints at all. Really good food, great value, friendly service, and a perfect casual lunch stop in Little Italy. If I'm back in San Diego and craving chicken Parmesan, I'd absolutely stop in again.

However, when we arrived at Nonna's we only had to wait no more than a couple of minutes before being seated. We thought most italian places would provide some sort of complimentary bread, but this place did not. We ended up ordering the Carbonara, Fusilli Alla Vodka, Pappardelle, and Salsiccia pizza. Each were fantastic, but the family really enjoyed the Fusilli and the Pappardelle the most! The short rib meat was extremely tender and flavorful. Portions were a little smaller than expected, but it was enough to feed each of us with a couple slices of pizza to spare. Ambiance was nice and the staff was great. A drink we ordered was forgotten, but it's understandable since it was quite busy. Overall, great experience and glad we ended up at Nonna's even though it wasn't part of the batch of recommendations provided online.

What made the experience even better was the staff. One of the employees was incredibly friendly, energetic, and genuinely passionate about the gelato. He encouraged us to sample flavors, asked what kinds of flavors we enjoyed, and made thoughtful recommendations based on our preferences. It felt like talking with a wine sommelier--someone who truly understood flavor and wanted us to find the perfect match. You could tell he genuinely loved his job, and that enthusiasm made the whole experience even more memorable.
