I absolutely love the flavor of their milk tea; it has a more pronounced tea taste. If you're considering the smoothie, you can opt for coconut milk instead. Also, the wonton chili sauce is incredibly delicious!

I visited the restaurant to get some boba with a friend around 4:30 PM. There was a sign on the door indicating they close at 6 PM, and there were more than six people inside, a mix of employees and their friends. Although the door was unlocked, the "open" sign was turned off. When I went in to inquire whether they were open, a staff member simply pointed at the off sign to indicate they were closed. I asked why their hours state they close at 6 PM, and the employee informed me that they were closed for the entire week. As I was leaving, the same employee hurried to grab the key and locked the door behind me. Overall, both my friend and I found the experience rather rude. There were no apologies, just six or more people laughing at us for wanting to buy boba.

I'm thrilled that I stumbled upon this place by chance. After dropping off a Biki, I was feeling thirsty and noticed this boba tea shop, so I decided to give it a shot without checking reviews beforehand. I'm really glad I did! I ordered a mixed fruit tea, and they definitely didn't hold back on the fruit. It was so refreshing! I highly recommend visiting this place intentionally, and I'll definitely be returning the next time I'm at Whole Foods down the street.

Great service! Love the passion fruit tea! Very nice and clean inside! Paired with prices, this shop is a top tier bubble tea visit!

Really great milk tea! The cups are so cute and different and their menu has so many options. Their tea has great flavor and the grass jelly was perfectly soft.
