This review is based off of my one experience there. We tried the sugar cane juice with no other extra added juices. I had high expectations because of tik tok, but I was let down. The sugar cane juice itself wasn't sweet at all and didn't taste refreshing as other ones I've tried. I wonder if I ordered the popular ones mixed with fruit juices, it would've been better. Overall stray away from just the sugar cane and maybe try the mixed versions.

This is usually my go to spot whenever I am in the South Bay and craving sugarcane juice. I've been coming here for years, however, this place is inconsistent. There are days when it's really good and days when it's bad. I got my usual yesterday (orange and sugarcane) and upon first sip, it tasted quite off. I'm not sure if they taste their own sugarcane before selling it each day because if they did, they would not have sold it yesterday. I tried the plain sugarcane I bought for my parents and it just did not taste right. I'm sure it went bad because I ended up having a stomachache. Unfortunately, I had to pour the 32oz plain sugarcane juice without ice down the drain, that's $14! I really hope they taste their own sugarcane and do quality checks before selling it. It's not cheap and the price keeps on going up while the quality is just not there.

My favorite nuoc mia in sj! They freshly squeeze the sugar cane right in front of you so it's delicious! There are longer wait times during holidays, but the staff is friendly and working hard to make your juice!

Ignore the ambiance and service. Just focus on taste. The freshly pressed sugarcane and kumquat juice is really refreshing.

Forever my favorite nuoc mia spot! From teenage years to now. They have proven to be a solid sugar cane juice place. Family owned and with relatively fast service. It's a small place so don't expect too much. Order what you need and go. Because this place is a little far from me, I usually get the 1/2 gallon and then drink it within 2-3 days.

Food (drinks): 10/10 - best sugar cane juice in the area tbh. Tried the passion fruit sugarcane. Will def try the regular one. Wish they had Durian! Service: 11/10 - friendly and quick Ambiance: it's inside a mall. Nothing much to expect. But it is surrounded by other Vietnamese shops!

Very refreshing on a hot day! Got the original sugarcane juice in a large. Definitely worth it and not as sweet as one would think when trying sugar cane juice! Would come back!

TL;DR: This is my family's go-to Sugar Cane place in the Bay Area. parking:- lots of parking as this is located within the food court of Grand Century. wait time:- zero ambiance:- Not the greatest but there's not much you can expect in a food court. service:- fast food:[Worth It] - Sugar Cane Drink with Kumquat: Great until it got too sweet-though it's a happy issue if you add more ice later to make a second drink lol

I ordered 4 large plain sugarcane juices - 3 of them were okay, but 1 had a bug in it.I didn't notice anything when I first picked up the drinks, but I guess the ice jostled around during the drive back home and then I noticed something dark in one of them. I opened it up to find a whole dead bug floating on top. Checked the other three and they didn't have anything.The bug was still in one piece. If it went through the sugarcane machine, then it would've been in pieces. My guess is that it came from the ice.So maybe order your drinks without ice and use your own at home.

The best nuoc mia (fresh sugarcane juice) in the Bay. Have tried others out of desperation (and they're not bad), but none compare to this place inside the Grand Century Mall- likely where they source the sugarcane from? Can't explain it but the nuoc mia from here is always the freshest/sweetest without that kind of off aftertaste (almost like a raw stench?). Anyway, this review was wayyyyy overdue since my fam and I have been coming here for as long as I can remember (over 10 years probably?).Pro tip: always get the nuoc mia tac (sugarcane with kumquat).
You really can't beat fresh sugarcane. It brings so much joy and it's delicious. I ordered the plain sugarcane and it was soooooo refreshing. If you've never been here before, finding it was pretty easy. We went to where the other food stalls were and referenced photos online and saw their sign! There is a 9.50 card minimum so if you're planning to use card keep that in mind! (Their large is 9.50). Service was not too bad. We just ordered our drink and they gave us a ticket. The wait was about 8 minutes or so. We had 3 others before us. I can't wait to come back for more sugar cane juice So good!

Super fresh sugar cane juice. Really refreshing and not too sweet. They come with a variety of fruit add-one but I got just the original (plain).Can't wait to come back.The mall it's self wasn't very busy and there are a lot of random viet businesses. There was a line even at closing time but the service was fast.

Yummy sugarcane juice. I always get the sugar cane with kumquat. You can't really taste the kumquat so I recommend asking them for extra. The price is a little bit on the higher side, $9.50 for a large cup.But I'd take that over a milkshake or whatever, any day.Sugarcane juice has natural sugars and the juice is very refreshing for a hot day!

Nuoc Mia today taste water down. I don't remember it tasting like this before. I just tried cococane in LA it was legit.
