The staff is very friendly, communicative, and helpful. She really wanted to make sure we all enjoyed the sweetness level of our drinks - I got an oat matcha latte unsweetened and was able to really taste the matcha - which tasted alright. Perhaps it would have been different with a tiny bit of sweetness but it was still fine. Overall I liked their attention to detail, care, the ambiance of the spot most.

Friendly staff, cozy cafe, and delicious organic hand crafted fusion drinks including: Vietnamese Coffee Series, Horchata Series, and fruit and matcha teas. Prices are very fair.

Small cafe located inside Viet Town, Little Saigon, San José. Free parking. Indoor tables.

This place has a lot of interesting options for boba and tea. It’s located in the middle of Vietnamese town with a lot of Vietnamese restaurants around. The shop has several spaces for seating. I had Assam milk tea with boba, 0% sugar. The tea flavor was a bit light, I wish It could be stronger. Overall everything was good. Staff was really friendly

Unique menu. Strong coffee. Like that it is not too sweet. Good ingredients. Appreciate that they don't use non-dairy creamer. Friendly service. Will definitely come again.

The boba drink is still sweet though I chose the sweetness level to be 25%. The atmosphere was ambient and the customer service was nice.

My go to place for strawberry matcha. It can be a bit inconsistent with how good it tastes depending on who makes your drink. The honey boba is usually warm and fresh when you get your drink. Bobbivie is also good.

The quality of the tea and the taste was amazing. I truly appreciate places that prioritize organic ingredients and boba tea places that use real milk and not powder.The atmosphere and the inside of that place is really cute too, we spent a good amount of time just looking at the art on the wall that can be bought.No complaints on the service either, everyone was friendly.

We got The Osmanthus oolong with oat milk at 50% sweetness and added crystal Boba and it tasted a little watered down. Not sure if that was because we substitute oat milk or maybe we should of gotten honey Boba instead...The drink cups were cute and inside the boba cafe was very nicely decorated. There was lots of available seating when we visited during the afternoon.There are also a few seats located outside the cafe. We were out running errands and I had a bathroom and to be completely honest, it wasn't very clean. I appreciate the availability and use for customers, but it needed to be serviced a bit more. Maybe it was because they were short staffed at the time...Overall, I think there may be better boba options, but I'm willing to give them another chance next time we visit the area!

Offers some cool reverse-engineering drinks like tea and latte (e.g. hojicha latte) and your obvious milk tea series. I got their strawberry hibiscus tea and it has a lot of strawberry bits in it which explodes with flavor after sipping it.

Despite good atmosphere and service I give three stars. First and foremost the boba wasn’t good. It was like hard little balls. Not even chewy. Second even at low sweetness, which they openly recommend against, I’ve never had a jasmine tea as bitter as this. LuckilyI can drink butter tea, but others who tried it thought it was very bad. It’s not cheap either. I think I’d try other boba places around this mall.

It's been hit or miss here, sometimes the drinks are great, other times it's flavorless water.

Iced coffee was solid but the strawberry lychee tea was not good and the churro waffle didn’t have enough cinnamon.
