The boba tea at this restaurant is excellent, particularly the toffee bits add a unique crunch to the drinks along with the tapioca pearls. I heard that if you take it to go, they provide the toffee bits on the side so they don't dissolve in the drink before you enjoy it. I also tried the pear pandan tea, a seasonal item. The pandan flavor I was excited for didn't come through until the end, and even then it was subtle. I might prefer it a bit sweeter, but overall it was like a regular green tea drink. The space is small but charming. It was busy after dinner, so there was a bit of a wait for our drinks. Fortunately, there were 2 tablets available to order from if someone was taking a while...
Second time coming here and a year later, still very good if pricey but in a great central location on B street close to other restaurants. Tried their seasonal summer drinks—kalamansi mojito, strawberry basil (added lychee jelly), and a pear drink, which were not too sweet and refreshing.Standout is the crème brûlée pudding milk tea with boba. Didn’t mix the pudding this time per feedmeimei’s pro tip, and it does make a difference. A sweet, rich indulgence!Ordered with the staff and order came out relatively quickly. Not much seating/ambience inside so best to enjoy your drinks outside weather permitting.
Used to love their crème brûlée milk tea. Recently they started to put everything in these new paper compostable cups so you no longer see the beautiful layers and color. Honestly it smacks of cutting. Completely removes any visual appeal of the drinks there are better options if you want to be environmentally friendly (clear pla cups).. or offer discounts to use reusable cups. Last time we came in the staff was a very rowdy group of 3 boys, lots of yelling and horseplay. I’ll be looking for a different favorite bubble tea spot.
The classic milk tea with almond pudding at this place is amazing! Some may argue that it's even better than Teaspoon and Boba Guys. The flavors are rich and delicious. Plus, they use 100% compostable cups and straws which is great. I love it here.
