I will say I hands down will forever recommend the smoothies!!!! They keep me coming back time and time again they are so good. As for the food I've recommended certain things like the chicken egg rolls but so fair things that have sounded good I've either tried or heard ppl who go for the smoothies try and they did not like them. A lady recently said she tried the chicken teriyaki and was not a fan which was disappointed because that was on my list to try however I was even more disappointed by the crab ragoon they are not like the typical ones at the Chinese restaurants. However the lady did suggest the edumame which I have no idea what that is as I have never had it but open to it haven't gotten a chance yet. Now on to the smoothies favorites so far have to be (strawberry/mango, blueberry ice cream, passionfruit, strawberry/kiwi and lastly banana/strawberry) in that order. The taste of the smoothies has opened me up to trying these different variations and let me tell you I am a stickler to sticking to what I like. Overall the service can be a little spotty here and there but they are always friendly and nice. Prices aren't too bad I believe I usually pay about 7 for a large smoothie and they have rewards so at times I've gotten like 3 off of my smoothies. It's def a regular place for me to visit.

Just visiting from out of town. Banh mi isn't hard to make, but the sandwich I got was not toasted or crispy. The bread is like Subway bread that's not toasted. The BBQ pork is a little dry but all the toppings are good. Boba is good - tapioca was cooked correctly, the classic milk tea is alright if you like your milk tea with more of a roasted tea flavor. The staff is friendly though!

I thought the food (poke bowl) and our boba drinks were very tasty. The service here was great. They have a nice place, but my one gripe was the smell. Smelled like a restroom at a gas station inside. Hope they can change that, but otherwise a very nice place.

I got the tofu Bahn mi 8" sandwich. It was really good! The baguette was crispy on the outside, chewy and soft inside. Crispy fresh vegetables and tasty sauce. My kiddo got the chicken teriyaki bowl and that was good as well. Husband got a build your own poke with salmon and he really liked it too. Would recommend ? ?

Couldn’t finish our food. We got a teriyaki chicken bowl and teriyaki salmon bowl that both smelled strongly of dog food. Crab Rangoons were not good, they were soft and slightly doughy towards middle. Waste of money and calories. Never going back and do not recommend.

I keep coming back for the poke bowls!! I go on kicks where I have to get one every week! I order mine off the toast app & get rewards!! So nice if you’re picking up an order you can go through the drive thru & they hand your order to you at the window! Their boba drinks are some of the best I have had outside of having boba from the city! Their veggies are always so fresh & perfect! I am so happy we have this place in town it was so needed! I haven’t tried the banh mi yet only cause it’s hard not to order the poke bowl everytime!! Also some of the best miso soup I have had too!! You can tell they use high quality ingredients!

This place is amazing!! Prices are reasonable and the staff were so nice and helpful. We went through the drive thru and received our drinks within five minutes of placing the order! I got a Matcha milk tea with brown sugar tapioca and it’s delicious. Definitely coming back to try food and sit inside the cute dining area!

Love love LOVE the salmon poke bowl. Just yum! It's so fresh, plentiful, and quick. I try to eat here at least once a week to satisfy my cravings! Give this a shot! If you don't like salmon, they have chicken and vegetarian options as well!

My husband and I came here for dinner yesterday! The staff was extremely helpful and welcoming! We’ve been wanting to check this place out for a while and I’m so glad we did! Everything was delicious! My husband had the Salmon Teriyaki Bowl and I had the build your own Poké Bowl with Tofu! The boba was also amazing, I had the honeydew boba!
