A small but very comfy boba cafe. I really like the robust menu. It has a very good selection of food and drinks. I like the mini mochi you can throw in as a topping.

Oreo milkshake is good. Brown sugar latte disappointed me. Tasted like sweet milk. Chewy boba. Coming back to try the food. Cute shop.

Cookie and cream boba is delicious, the pearls are even flavorful. The chicken with the tonkatsu sauce is also delightful, it’s crispy and the sauce has plenty of flavor. Perfect for a light meal with a friend, especially if you are on a budget.

the milk tea tasted like a glass of milk, no tea flavor at all, the tapioca was over cooked, also had little to no flavor and the wait was very long

Very small place but the lady that took out out was nice. It was slow but it was just her with a bunch of more people ordering after us so we didn’t mind. The food was good but the cake was very small which I was a bit disappointed I thought it was bigger from the picture. The bubble teas were great!
Overall nice small cozy spot

LOVE DOVE

Friendly staffPro Good drink optionsCon food went downhill, hand spicy tuna sandwich - bread was stail, can tuna was watery sauce wasn't not mixed in tuna one side bread mayo other spicy mayo, the riceballs are not the same SOOOO MUCH rice and a little portion of protein/filling also flavorless - i had the shrimp tempora (lots of batter with small shrimp) and clamI'd recommend this place for the drinks, you'd be disappointed with the food

Chocolate Milk

I miss back when the food costed less now I have to pay like $25 for 3 small rice balls.They aren’t even that big to be that expensive and it doesn’t take that long to make.$6-7 for small rice triangles is absurd

Love love love this place, if you're passing by, you definitely need to try them out. My elderly Spanish mother loves their coconut bubble tea and my favorite is the almond milk tea.

Lovely little place to stop in for a light meal and tea. The staff are friendly, and they have a tablet ordering system available which is convenient. The onigiri rice balls are especially good. I enjoy the scallop and corned beef ones. The seating is comfortable, but a large group of 6 or more might struggle to sit down.

This place is fantastic! I got a delicious mango slush with tapioca. They’ve got a great menu with tons of drinks and snacks like dumplings and rice balls, and really good prices. I’ll be back!
