I’ve been visiting this plaza for almost three years and never thought to enter this place until today. I initially wanted bubble tea and remembered that I saw a flyer of theirs advertising such.

I went in with $10 cash with intention purchase one but left with two, paying with my card as they came it a little over $14.

I got the crème brûlée milk tea with extra boba and peach tea with mango popping boba which the staff recommended to me.

The ordering process, paying and receiving the teas were all within 5 minutes.
The staff were friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere was quiet and inviting.

I am not a fan of raw meat but if I do become one I’ll try this place first.
Until then, this is my new bubble tea spot.

Both drinks were delicious and the ice to drink ratio was perfect.

This place is a lunch spot gem. Hopefully it doesn't get to crazy for lunch. It is such a delicious bowl and healthy.

Food is fantastic if you are looking for a healthy fresh option. They have a vegetarian chicken, which is so delicious!! I also got a lycee mojito which was sooo good. Try them out you won't be disappointed

Okay this is a bit of a story time but just as a quick TLDR: Overall for the price of everything, the off taste of their milk tea when they don't put enough syrup, and the rude interaction with that one member of their staff. Definitely not worth it. I won't be ordering from here again even though I've been visiting every once in awhile, pretty much since they opened.

I used to love this place but recently I've noticed a drop in quality with their drinks. As well as the staff being a bit unorganized and rude. A while back I came in and ordered the honey dew milk tea, but I noticed it somewhat tasted like soap. Not that there was any actual soap in the drink. Just that there wasn't enough syrup and it made it taste way off. I asked the staff politely to remake it for me and they did. A bit more syrup was added, and it was fixed. Problem solved.

Today I came in with some friends around 5. I ordered a poke bowl with white rice, black beans, chicken, yum yum and ponzu sauce. I know I'm weird don't judge me I like what I like. What I've done in the past is I'll take my order to go, and heat it up at home bc I find it's much better with the beans and chicken heated up. However, we had planned on eating at the restaurant. So I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask the worker if they could heat it up for me, and if they couldn't then that's okay. Again it's literally just chicken, rice, beans, and sauce. Nothing crazy. So the worker turned the woman beside her, who I assume had a bit more experience than her, to ask if they could heat up my food. And the other lady looked at me like I was insane for asking something like that. And she asks me again to make sure she's understanding the question. And I was like yeah is that okay? Could you do that for me? And she gave me this condescending smile and told me no and that they can't do that. Now, I understand that it's not something common that they would get asked, and it might have been an inconvenience for them to go and heat up my food. But she didn't need to make me feel like I was crazy for asking something like that.

I told them that it was fine, and didn't make a fuss or anything. It definitely threw me off and stressed me out a bit. I had also wanted to order a strawberry milk tea. However, I honestly wasn't thinking straight after that had happened, and my words came out completely wrong and I accidentally said matcha instead of boba. Which confused the original girl who had been taking my order. When I had caught my mistake and tried to correct myself and explain what I actually wanted, the other woman interrupted me and told the girl that I wanted a matcha milk tea. And that point I was tired of the whole situation and just agreed to it.

On top of that, once I got my drink and got to taste it, it also had that off taste to it. Similar to the first drink I mentioned in the post where they don't add enough syrup and it makes it taste like soap. I ended up saving the drink until I got home and fixing it myself with a bit of brown sugar because I didn't want to talk to that worker again.

Probably won't be going back.

Great spot for lunch or dinner. Poke bowls are fresh and filled to the brim. Worth the $ for the amount of food.

I just recently stopped eating meat and was looking for vegetarian options and decided to get a poke bowl with vegetarian chicken it was absolutely delicious. I never would’ve guessed that it wasn’t real chicken. Thank you so much. I will be back.

This is a really good salad definitely recommend if you get a salad at Subway for $12 and get a salad for $15 here it’s definitely worth the money you get more for your money and a better healthy well rounded salad.

This place is insanely good! I love poke but something I find at a lot of places is they are stingy with toppings and things like that. Extra protein is different but a lot of times I go to a poke place and get one scoop of edamame or 1 “scoop” of cucumber and it’s like 4 pieces and you have to beg for more and they don’t add a lot more at all. This place, 13 toppings allowed and only some with an extra charge which is awesome. And if you don’t want a lot of different toppings you can add multiples of what you like to get more of what you prefer. I ordered pickup for the first time yesterday and the bowl was HEAVY and fulll of toppings, not too much rice and a healthy heavy portion of everything I asked for. I loved it so much I was craving it all day, so I ordered again this time with Uber because I’m sick and couldn’t pickup. The quality was the same the next day even with uber. Very consistent, healthy portions, and insane quality. I got spicy tuna and spicy salmon and sometimes around this time of year fish is not the best quality, but it’s not fishy at all and there’s a lot of it! The price is pretty on par with other popular poke places and for the quality and portions this place is amazing and significantly better. I couldn’t recommend this place enough!

Not only are the prices very reasonable, the portions are also fantastic. The bowls are huge. For reference, I ordered a make it yourself burrito, and a salmon bowl (pictured below). I inhaled the burrito before I could take a picture, and it was delicious. I wasn’t expecting it to be seaweed wrapped instead of a regular wrap, but I’m happy it was. Keep that in mind if you order on an app. The wraps are seaweed. Still, it was delicious, filling, and healthy. I could only get maybe a quarter through the bowl before I was too full to continue. And again, it was delicious.

If you’re health conscious, and looking for quick meals without breaking the bank, I highly recommend this place. I’m upset it has taken me this long to try it out.
