The best boba in the area. Reminds me of the boba in East Los Angeles / San Gabriel valley. The ramen is also good. You can order using a touchscreen kiosk. There’s also a good Poke place next door

I love their fruit teas. I get them with tapioca. The passionfruit and mango teas are so good. The texture of the tapioca pearls is perfect every time with just the right amount of sweetness. I love how the tapioca is warm. I love the fresh fruit inside the teas. It's kind of expensive, but l'll still always buy it.
I like the ambiance of the restaurant, but they should clean the tables more often.

Great bubble tea - nice and chewy boba and customizable. Loved the oolong milk tea!

The reason you'll see so many mixed reviews of this place is because their items are about $2 more than the national average.

The boba was pretty tasty but I would say they were also small. Their service is great though! They not only made the boba fast, but they also brought them to our table without us asking. They also have board games you can play while you wait for your food or in my case, my drink. I would still recommend this place.

3.3 stars. I'm a boba tea fan and had to check this place out. The interior was spacious with simplistic decor; white sofas, tables with games on it (Uno, blocks, Connect 4). There were plenty of seating and a couple of high chairs which is perfect for my little one. I loved the kiosks where you can order and pay. Parking was plentiful and spacious.
I ordered the creme brulee brown sugar milk tea with tapioca ($6.45); you can customize less ice, more sugar, etc. For food, I had the Korean Corn Dog ($4.50) with fish sausage/potatoes, ketchup, and Japanese mayo and popcorn chicken.
So why three stars? When I walked in, there wasn't any eye contact or greetings from the employees. The boba tea was disappointing; sweet at the bottom and the tapioca was warm, a few sips later, it just tasted like bland milk; I tried mixing it but still bland. I won't order that flavor again. The Korean hot dog was delicious! The popcorn chicken ($11.95) was okay, it's crunchy with a light batter and some flavor, it came with a good amount of chicken; a dipping sauce would've amped that up but none was provided. In the end, yes I would go back to try out the other boba tea flavors and appetizers.

What you see in the picture cost me $25 ( not including tip) yes Ramen with broth and veggies.The Ramen R1 cost $15.99 and the bobble tea cost almost 8.Service was very fast and they are professional.The atmosphere was very fast food and doesn’t match for the price on the menu.The food was ok, the bobble tea was delicious.I drove 30 min to come here today. The question is would I do it again?Not really.

Got the chicken ramen, you could tell the noodles were put in there just before serving, broth lacked a certain depth of flavor, corn was cold and chicken was not seasoned. Got the soup noodles as well, tasted amazing I will say that! Could use a bit more soup. All in all the people taking car of was were the best part of the place! Friendly, quick and took good care of us!
