Do not get the blood orange matcha sparkler, it tastes sooo bad

I ordered a strawberry matcha latte with oat milk to sip on while waiting for my friends to get brunch at Berkeley Social Club just down the street. The matcha was pretty good but the strawberry to matcha ratio was off with barely that much strawberry compote compared to the amount of matcha and milk in the drink, so once I stirred it, the strawberry flavour was minimal. I would get the matcha by itself and skip the addition of strawberry next time.

I got matcha latte with plant milk and 0%sugar - matcha is good quality definitely above other shops near by!! I feel like it was watered down tho maybe cuz of the plant milk brand..

The strawberry Matcha latte was good.

Worst “matcha” I’ve ever had. More like a green juice press and barely put any strawberry in it

It's a small, cute place in Downtown Berkeley. Totally fits in with the area and the people. I had some great tea and was very comfortable. I would go again, even though I don't drink tea.
I am not here to disgust anyone who have seen this review. But I would have to say if you have seen this review, congrats on not drinking a milk tea with a FLY. YES, THERE IS A FLY INSIDE THE DRINK. And I only found it after I had already drink it.
I bought from this store for AT LEAST 30 times, and I CANNOT believe how were all the drinks I ordered from here before. I HAVE DEFINITELY reported this food safety issue to Alameda County Department of Health.

Asha has always been and will continue to be my favorite matcha shop in the Bay Area. I’m so glad we have this place and the quality / selection here never disappoints. I first started coming here while a student and now that I’m still in the Bay, make sure to stop by whenever I’m in Berkeley as this is truly the best.
The drinks use high quality matcha and taste delicious. They also have a hojicha option which is a bit more hard to find and tastes equally as amazing. The interior of this spot is very cozy with minimalist Japanese vibes and large ceilings.
Can’t recommend this place enough!

Always a lot of people here, but never too crowded that I can’t find a seat. The selection of drinks seems very curated and well made. Matcha is always great here! Love stopping by to get a drink before going on with my day. The decor here is very cozy.

For everyone who is saying their drinks are "too watery" you are living in a post-diabetic world. No their drinks don't have 100 grams of sugar but they instead use real tea with real flavors. If you don't like it maybe it wasn't crafted for you in the first place (yes it's expensive, it's Berkeley in 2024). I will always defend the Asha establishment 'till the day I die.
