    Ube Halo Halo shaved ice
    Winnie Y.

    Cute and casual spot with a wide variety of drinks and toppings. It seems to be a mix of Vietnamese and Korean inspired flavors/offerings. Mostly fruit teas and jellies. There's also a few snack/dessert items including shaved ice, rolls, and Korean hot dog (limited availability). I got an Ube Halo Halo shaved ice which was refreshing for the hot day but was lacking in flavor. The jellies are good, but I wish there was more of it. I tried some of my partner's milk tea drink as well. The items are really colorful and eye-catching, but the flavors are really light and could definitely use some improvement. Overall, Uju's is okay, and would be lower on the list amongst all the different boba/snack shops in the area.

    banana milk tea and uju bag :p thx khoa!

    i love love love uju so much !!!! me and my bf would come here sometimes after school, we are highschool grads now and sad that we're leaving college so we're def going to miss this place :( whenever we're hungry uju def is one of our options bc the hot foods are so yummy!!! dry noodle has to be my fav. such a good introduction to the cultural dishes they serve :D their drinks are supa good as well. i typically always get the banana/ube milk option for the build your own drink and it satisfies me a lot !! their coconut water matcha is really good as well hehe the workers are so nice and we really appreciate Khoa, the owner, and his kindness!! the ambiance is very cozy and welcoming. i think the one thing i love abt this place too is that it's right next to tofu's trading!!! i've def ripped a lot of packs at uju, and got a lot of hits ~ maybe there's smth called uju luck o_o!! i would recommend this place to anyone passing by viet town :3

    Jasmin milk tea with all the toppings, brown sugar with ube pearls
    Alex Z.

    Such a cute and cool place, so many options to choose from and how to customize your order I didn't know what to order. I went with the most popular option the Jasmin milk tea with all the toppings, It was super good if you're into floral drinks. The toppings are cute to look at and all so tasty as well. Definitely will be back for some snack treats as well.

    The banana milk and poke-bake were much more filling that I thought they'd be. The masago poke bake was good but I don't think I'd get it again. It was beautifully put together and tasted good but it doesn't come with that much rice and the cucumber took away from the savoriness. I recommend asking for no cucumber. The banana milk with all the toppings was good. The staff member with the short dyed hair was super helpful! He explained how to eat / drink the drink since it was my first time. He said to take sips and eat some jelly as I go. There is seating inside, perfect for catching up with friends

    Banana Coffee w/o cheese cream
    Jonny T.

    I tried their Banana Cheese Coffee, without the cheese. It's hella good! The folks here are hella nice too. Right when you walk in, they ask you if you've ever tried their products, and if you haven't they proceed to help you find the drink that best suits your taste buds and cravings. The place is also very ADA compliant and friendly. This is important for me, because my beautiful wife is ADA. Thank you UJU for the great hospitality and experience! I'll definitely be back, to try your other coffee suggestions, but I'm excited to drink the banana coffee again! 20/10 overall for this visit!

    Milk Tea Full Toppings
    Generous Y.

    Visited last year, just a bit after they opened. Was hunting down boba around but gave in to trying new things here. Dessert here is similar to che but different in a way. Service was great, super friendly. Major complaint is that they give tons of ice and didn't offer reductions at the time, not sure about now. Price is also pretty steep all things considered. They do a good job at honoring sugar adjustments, so the lower levels don't taste terrible. Milk tea was also surprisingly decent for a spot that doesn't specialize in boba. If you're picking toppings, I would skip the jellies and just get the flans. While the jelly is super basic and offered at most Asian dessert spots, the flan was super soft and creamy, packed with flavor, and cheesy. Premium desserts were the items like the cheese flan while regular toppings were everything else.

    Chescca C.

    Late review. It also took twenty to twenty-five minutes for two drinks (or a drink and che? can't remember what my friend got) even though it wasn't busy at the time. I've never been back since as there are other boba shops nearby that are much faster. I've also never gone to a boba shop where the worker recommends we zelle him. I can't remember what I put false advertising for though.

    Rose tteokbokki and coffee flan
    Thuy N.

    We got the rose tteokbokki and the coffee flan, which both tasted great. The rose tteokbokki has rice cake, fish cake, sausage, cabbage. The coffee flan has coffee jelly and their signature cheese slice. I was there around noon time and they didn't have any sushi to order. The service was okay. The place is cute.

    Cute little boba shop with exciting toppings to choose from! Since it was our first time there the guy working helped us and really surprised us with the topping choices. My siblings really enjoyed coming here and we will come back.

    Minh V.

    The boys that work here are very friendly and cordial. Excellent service from this tea shop. I personally love the vibes and the decor here. Their egg cream is really tasty. I did not expect it to go well with the Vietnamese Coffee. The toppings that they offer here are quite nice. Matcha Flan, Ube Flan and other flan toppings are amazing.

    banana milk tea + cheese jello
    Angelica H.

    I like that this boba place copied the concept from socal (the many types of toppings / cheese jello) but I think their drinks are pretty expensive for what it is. The milk tea with 8 toppings was $9 & the cheese jello was also $3 which is quite pricy for just the jello. I recommend this place just to try if you haven't experienced having milk tea with various jellos / puddings but it's honestly a bit pricey in my opinion.

    green thai milk tea
    Megan T.

    Such a fun spot with so many different toppings to pick from! It's located in a plaza so there is a parking lot and the staff were friendly. There's a couple of tables indoors for seating. I ordered one of their best sellers, the green Thai milk tea. I typically don't like green Thai tea because it tastes a bit medicinal to me, but this spot made it well & I didn't get that flavor and really enjoyed this drink! It was loaded with different kinds of toppings like jellies, pudding, and boba. Solid spot to get your sweet fix.

    Monica V.

    Saw this on a social media video and had to check it out for myself. I was not disappointed. I like that you had options to choose which topping you wanted or just let the servers surprise you. I went with the surprise and everything was good. My husband liked them too but was only upset because he didn't know what the jellies were called so get them again. Guess I have to go back with him so he can pick his toppings.

    Wowowow finally got to try Izumi's drinks. Not sure if they need another 5 star review lol, this…read moreplace is heavily known by matcha lovers and SJ locals. What I had: - Lychee Matcha (double matcha, regular sweet, regular ice) - Yuzu Matcha (double matcha, regular sweet, regular ice). Double matcha was not overly strong or caffeinating to me (love that they do not charge extra for this option btw)- my caff tolerance I'd say is relatively high or above average for sure. Surprisingly, at that matcha level the taste is not overly bitter at all. And the regular sweet is perfect (I normally get 50% sweet at boba shops). Same with the ice level, I think their regular ice level is fine (I normally get less ice at boba shops). The Lychee matcha has great lychee taste, not artificial tasting, it's a great blend of both lychee + matcha. The Yuzu is leaning towards the 'lemonade' profile without being overly citrusy. More refreshing than the lychee matcha, but both are refreshing anyways due to the nature of their flavors! I think I prefer the lychee matcha normally, honestly hard to say which flavor is better! I thoroughly enjoyed both these drinks! Their flavors are blended well with the matcha- not overly sweet in flavor, and matcha is great quality while not overly powerful or bitter. Drinks are of course mixed well and composed nearly perfectly. ---How I Rate on Yelp:--- (5 stars): Exceptional!! -- food, service, and atmosphere all outstanding. Worth going out of your way. (4 stars): Great! -- very good experience overall, minor flaws but nothing major. (3 stars): Good -- decent, acceptable, but there's room for clear improvement. (2 stars): Poor -- disappointing experience, multiple issues (food, service, or setting). (1 star): Terrible -- very bad experience, would not return or recommend.

The service is great, and they make your drinks very fast. The taste is very consistent, and they do have a large menu with lots of different items other than matcha. My only downside is the variety of matcha over the recent year. From last year and this year, the menu for matcha has not changed much, and it seems like I get the same taste every time I go. While the first time was enjoyable, after it just gets repetitive. I love Izumi, but I really wish there was a rotation between drinks.

I was looking for a reliable…read moredessert spot open late that serves desserts on the lighter side, and che fit the bill perfectly. Both times I've gone were half an hour before closing and the store was packed. The first time I got the Ha Noi Mist and the Lychee Rose, the second time I got the Ha Long Sunset and a limited stock warm specialty dessert with pandan and ube dumplings in a ginger coconut sauce. The Ha Noi Mist's ingredients sounded the most aligned with my personal preferences and I got the Lychee Rose to try something different but refreshing on a warm summer night. I was hesitant to get the Ha Long Sunset since I'm not a fan of jackfruit but Eric voted for it, and also the dumplings since a ginger coconut sauce sounds weird but he said that's what he wanted. Sipping che through a straw definitely beats spooning it. Make sure to thoroughly mix the drink and crush up the ice a bit before indulging. On my first visit I didn't notice the kiosk and ordered with the cashier so I was confused at how I would know when my order is ready because I didn't get a number or a receipt, but I later noticed the screens displaying that information on the wall. I'm a big fan of pandan jelly. The red pearls can be good but can sometimes have a bit of a crunchy chew in the center. Young coconut has a good flavor but a texture that isn't my favorite. I did not like the jackfruit in the Ha Long Sunset, but the flavor wasn't strong enough to ruin the whole dessert. I feel like che is a dessert that is not necessarily expensive or time consuming to produce, and the milk tea/fruit tea prices here are definitely on the pricey end given their component ingredients. Yes I would revisit, especially when I need dessert late, but I feel that making che at home could be the cost-effective alternative.

We ended up going again the next day to try it. We ordered the Premium Strawberry Sulbing and the Mozzarella Injeolmi Toast. The bingsoo was delicious and not too sweet, loaded with fresh strawberries and a big cheesecake wedge. It's especially great for a hot summer day.

We'll definitely be coming back!

    Sulbing is a Korean dessert café best known for bingsu, a shaved ice dessert made with an…read moreincredibly fine texture that feels closer to snow than traditional shaved ice. We walked into a clean, modern space with a casual café feel that works well for stopping by after a meal or meeting up with friends for something sweet. The shop focuses on creative variations of bingsu with toppings ranging from fruit to chocolate, matcha, and other dessert-inspired flavors, and the layout encourages lingering over a shared dessert rather than rushing through a quick stop. The biggest highlight is the texture of the shaved ice itself. The ice is extremely soft and light, melting quickly while still holding the flavors from the toppings and condensed milk. We ordered the Injeolmi Sulbing, which showcases the more traditional side with nutty flavors, and the combination of the fine ice, chewy rice cake, and nutty powder created a dessert that felt both refreshing and satisfying. The Tiramisu and Chocolate Brownie Sulbing turn it into a much more indulgent experience, with richer flavors that feel closer to a full dessert than a light treat. The presentation is impressive, with each bowl arriving looking carefully composed, and the layers of toppings are distributed well enough that you get a good mix in every spoonful. The portions are also a major part of the appeal. A single bingsu is easily shareable, making it a good choice for groups or anyone looking for a dessert to split after a meal. We found that sharing worked well, as the portion was generous enough to satisfy two people without feeling like we were missing out. Beyond bingsu, they also offer items like toast and other sweet treats, which give the menu more variety and make it a place you can visit even if you are not in the mood for shaved ice. The main thing to keep in mind is that the experience depends heavily on the flavor you choose. Some versions rely more on the toppings for their flavor, while others feel more balanced throughout. The presentation is impressive, but certain options may feel less satisfying if you expect every bite to have the same intensity as the first. The fruit-based versions, for example, rely on the freshness of the fruit to carry the dessert, while the chocolate and tiramisu versions have a more consistent richness from the base itself. Sulbing is a great spot for trying Korean-style shaved ice. The unique texture, large portions, and variety of flavors make it stand out from typical dessert shops, especially if you enjoy lighter desserts with creative toppings. The balance of refreshing and indulgent options across the menu gives you room to explore different styles on repeat visits, and the quality of the ingredients makes each bowl feel considered and well composed.
