Handmade Brown Sugar Boba
"Best tasting boba I've had! The brown sugar boba has great flavor and texture, but runs quite sweet. Tastes great with a 25% or 50% sweetness drink."
Jasmine Milk Tea
"Good jasmine milk tea (I usually get 50% sweetness). 5 stars for friendly service and clear communication yesterday and for having bathrooms available; it's a pet peeve of mine how many tea places don't have bathrooms for customers."
Rainbow Boba
"Awesome handmade boba! As someone from Taiwan it's rare to get boba that tastes so fresh in the area. The owner even gave us free samples of boba to try! I highly recommend their rainbow boba, really unique and tasty :)"
