Meet Fresh Cupertino

Shaved ice is some toppings on a solid block that you're supposed to eat with paper spoons.

bro please get wifi

Had to wait 30 minutes to get our food. It was a very busy Thursday night. Unfortunately what we ordered was not to our taste. It was too sweet and very messy, especially with the tapioca on the side.

Getting the order was also very complicated, with their system seeming quite disorganized.

Order was wrong after waiting 25 minutes

Edit: this was not on a weekend! It was a Friday early afternoon. There seemed to be plenty of staff, however they were slow. If the owners are already aware there is a staffing issue on the weekends then fix it. I
do not mind waiting but it have the order completely wrong after waiting that long is ridiculous.

We walked into the restaurant late at night after dinner and were surprised to see a huge line, even at that hour. To save time, we decided to order through the app, which helped reduce the wait significantly.

We ordered the medium bingsu, a Korean shaved ice dessert, and asked for it to be made with less sweetness. That level of sweetness turned out to be just right for what most people would probably consider a perfect balance. The portion size was quite generous and could easily be shared between two people. Overall, a great late-night spot for dessert, especially if you’re in the mood for something refreshing and not overly sweet.

Great desserts. Pretty much the same from what I remember from eating in Taiwan. Long lines in holidays.

This location does not meet Meet Fresh standards in my opinion. The purple rice dessert was really watered down. There were barely any rice, not very flavorful. The taro pieces were more of small chunks held together with flavorless taro paste. The hot Almond soup was the same - watered down and flavorless. It's very disappointing. Cupertino is probably the worst of the 5 locations I've experienced - 2 in SoCal and 3 in NorCal.

The food quality here decreased a lot and also the service. Was a big fan of Meat Fresh for years but not anymore.

I ordered to-go for a dessert and a milk tea. The milk tea package is so bad that once I arrived at home, half of the cup is gone and messed up with another dessert. I wish the restaurant can invest in more reliability package for boba tea that don’t spill during car drive. It will ruin the experience due to the spill.

Been here a couple times, and the portions are always super generous! Not too sweet desserts, very refreshing and light.

I’ve tried both the hot and cold desserts, and prefer the cold ones way more. No cash, only ordering at kiosks, but service is extremely quick. Yes they’re expensive for a dessert, but can easily be for 2-3 people, would recommend!

Pricy snacks. Check your items before picking them up for to-go. The staff might mess it up occasionally.

This was overall... not a pleasant visit!

- Over a DOZEN different signs (menus, notices, warnings, updates) plastered about (see the photos). Before my friend arrived, I spent 10+ minutes just trying to make sense of it all. Not to mention their actual menus are so massive (and confusing) as to just make for decision paralysis :(.

- To order, you have to use the kiosks. Not only do they not list ANY ingredients (so you have to go find the separate menu to actually understand what you're ordering) but... if you select "English" then you'll find you're inexplicably not able to add any item to your cart to order. Oh, and you can order a Medium or Large but oddly there's no Small. And after all that hassle, they still prompt you to tip. Man that's lame when there's... literally no service offered (they call your number and you walk up to the counter to pick up your dessert, and you bus your table yourself).

- I ordered my dessert "half sweet" and lordy, I'm petrified to even consider what "100% sweet" would have been; maybe just a bag of sugar? 50% sweet was still way, way too sweet!

There are plenty of less-stressful, more tasty places (and even more affordable!) places for Taiwanese desserts. I'd avoid going to Meet Fresh unless you want a confusing, loud, and frustrating time.

2 stars only because I didn't get food poisoning.

Amazing desserts! Don’t come here if you’re short on time, as there’s often a wait but it’s worth it.

This place has been around for ages, how do they still take 30min to make egg waffles.. and the only warning sign is at the pickup counter, not where you order. Why don’t they just buy more waffle irons?!

This place can order from screen. Very hard to use. So the ordering line take more than 30min of wait time. Totally not worth the time. Plus everything is overpriced.
