Most Popular Items

Grass Jelly Desserts
"Signature Taiwanese dessert brand. Their specialties are the icy grass jelly and icy taro ball series. Our family came here multiple times and tried out different other items on the menu such as almond tofu, boba milk tea, shaved ice, etc. We still prefer the icy grass jelly best."
Mochi Shaved Ice
"Ordered the Q mochi milk shaved ice dessert as a weekday afternoon treat... The dessert itself was refreshing and delicious - lots of textures and sweet flavors, my favorite part were the purple potaro balls (chewy taro mochi filled with black sesame)!"
Almond Tofu/Pudding
"Had my first almond pudding there and it was fantastic; a new tasty flavour I enjoyed."
