This place is located in the Saigon Plaza off of Mclaughlin in San Jose. They have K-Pop events here. Nice shopping center with plenty of food choices...

The place provides tasty food, free internet, and outlets. Oh. If you pay cash, you get discounts.

They have a lot of fruit tea drinks! I didn't get snacks this time. We got the special strawberry coconut sago and a seasonal drink specialty fruit C5 Summer Passion with strawberry, apple and kiwi.

Food and drinks are fine but there were so many flies and gnats. At some point my friend and I gave up on shooing them away and accepted that they were gonna end up in our food. Wouldn't be surprised if we ate some that day. The tables were also sticky. Recommend ordering to-go.

Drinks are probably the best thing there and are on the sweet side for me but I just order less sweet. They have a good tea flavour and fruit flavour prices are okay too. 4/5.

Food is okay. Nothing super special and the prices are decent for what you get. Then jalapeno cheese fries use nacho cheese sauce instead of melted cheese. Jalapenos are the pickled jalapenos instead of fresh so mildly disappointing. The fry on the fries weren't as crispy as I would like either. Takoyaki and shumai were fine. 3/5

Food is overpriced. I got the garlic cream waffle fries and it was 7.45 yet the menu said it was 6.50. I also got a lemon green tea and it tasted bitter. I supposed the lemon was not fresh as it should. Overall food is okay but too expensive for the portion and the taste.

I went here for lunch the other day and I honestly thought it was just okay. I tried the steak guacamole fries since it looked good in the Yelp photos. Although I loved the hot crispy fries and the amount of steak pieces, I felt that the flavors didn’t match with each other. It was like a combination of Vietnamese shaking beef with guacamole and takoyaki sauce, which I felt was an odd combination of flavors. I also ordered the strawberry passion tea which was good but not any different than what I can get at other boba places. Overall, I would definitely give them another shot and consider returning to try other dishes or drinks if I was in the area.

I’ve been in San Jose for quite a while and to a large variety of restaurants. I don’t ever give reviews but this was truly an experience. Although the matcha tornado met my expectations of a good tea drink, it was the steak and fries dish that took me by surprise. The guacamole was vivid and delicious, the fries had the perfect crispy texture that avoids the soggy fallacy of nacho style dishes, and the steak was a literal bomb of flavor! The steak was perfectly seared with a juicy and soft interior which allowed the flavor to be sealed in. Each bite revealed layers of ecstasy. You truly have not lived unless you’ve had this steak.

Waited over half an hour for our drinks… They need to be more efficient or else hire more employees. Unacceptable.
Also, the lights in their bathroom didn’t work…

the guy that was working on wednesday around 4pm dropped a cup on the dirty floor that has met countless numbers of shoes, picked up the dirty cup, and continued using it to make drinks. i told him to use a new cup, he said "ok", but proceeded to use the same dirty cup. BE CAREFUL, I do not trust the workers here. Manager should really train staff what sanitary conditions mean. never going back here.

This is an awesome snack shop. The drinks and food are terrific. We had a few drinks (HK milk tea $6, matcha tornado $6.25, creme brulee $6.25), popcorn chicken $8.50 and eggette $7. The popcorn chicken had a unique breading. It was crunchy and flavorful. There were spicy options and/or sauce options. We went with plain. The guy working by himself did an excellent job of taking our order and making it. I really liked how there were a lot of comfortable seats and how clean it was. Pro tip: there's a discount for paying in cash. The restroom lights don't work. So turn on your phone's flashlight before going in.
