I must say I've only had one drink, but the drink was delicious. This quaint little boba spot is a to-go spot only as there is no lobby area to chill or relax.The drink that I had was the pink guava. That is delicious and flavorful. I haven't a drink like this so I feel it's on the unique side when it comes to boba. If you like guava, give this drink a try!

4.5/5 Stars!Ever since Orobae closed, I've been searching for a good milky oolong milk tea to replace Orobae's Phoenix Tea. I think i've found something that'll do just the trick! They have a generally smaller menu than a lot of boba shops, but i think it makes sense if they are doing certain things really great. Metal Buddha Oolong Tea - 50% sweet with boba is my favorite! They only have one size, so it defaults to a 20 ounce which is a large for boba. It came out to be about $7.50 with tax and + boba. Thought the tea flavor was really rich and the sweetness was perfect for me. The staff were nice, but really minimal interaction. The tea is great, I think that a couple things could be improved to land a 5 star rating: - Online Ordering - there's already a kiosk, so hopefully there's a future capability to allow for online ordering- I love that they use paper cups for environmental reasons, but they have to do TWO cups and it's on the verge of leaking sometimes. - hot drinks - for the winter or colder nights would be great. -it doesn't bother me that this is literally a counter for boba without any seats.Definitely will be back!

Couldn't tell exactly what the tea flavor was in the Smoke B'lao Milk Tea, but it reminded me of either a very potent black tea or a strongly roasted oolong tea. The depth of this tea went well with 100% sugar and less ice, but I'd be down to try less sugar in the future, especially for their other drinks. Overall, it was a solid milk tea with an intense flavor profile.The shop is tiny and made adorable with the soft pink tones and a puppy logo - what's cuter than that? You can see the menu from outside the doors, but you can also use the self-serve kiosk to check the menu and order. They have a good selection of drinks and allow sugar and ice adjustments, so there should be something to please even the pickiest of palates.The lady inside the kitchen was quick to greet customers with a smile. No seating anywhere, but that didn't bother me. Parking lot is abundant in the plaza but can get busy closer to the afternoon.

Yummy! The brown sugar milk is a classic and they do it well. There's a good portion/balance between the drink and the boba. Service is quick and you can order at the register or their computer system. The only downside is there's a bit too much ice for my liking so I'd ask for light ice. Other than that, it's cute, they have lots of drinks to choose from, and it's a perfect sweet treat after you have lunch/dinner in the area.

This is a cute boba shop tucked into a busy plaza next to Vox Kitchen and the space itself is cute with all the pink colors and dog theming. It's a grab and go spot as there isn't much room besides the entry way and the counter.There's one kiosk you can order your drinks or at the register with a staff member. They have a variety of drinks ranging from milk teas to fruit teas & coffee drinks. I went for the Hibiscus Oolong tea and it was refreshing! The oolong tea flavor was well pronounced and the hibiscus flavor was not masked.Prices are reasonable and similar to most shops in the area.My drink came out fast and there's plenty of parking in the plaza. Will be back soon!

Such a CUTE little boba tea shop that just opened up in this Albertson's shopping center. This is literally a grab-and-go/takeout spot only - there is no interior space at all - there is a digital ordering kiosk, or you can order through the cashier at the register, like I did. I think (based on my receipt - attached) - that I was the first customer of the day... (they open at 11am)... of 2025!They have a selection of coffee and matcha drinks, among other selections. I opted for the Paws Tea Matcha Smoothie (#16) - with added boba. First off, I wasn't sure if it's because I was their first customer of the day and that they just opened, but the boba was fresh! And chewy! And yummy! I've had bad boba before (not here) - and fresh boba is a world of difference! It really helped form the fun of the drink. The drink itself??? Amazingly awesome. Probably a 10/10 in terms of matcha. I've had plenty of matcha drinks and some of them are either too bitter or oddly sweet - but not the matcha here. It's an awesome, rich, taste. Not clumpy. Not gritty. The smoothie texture was definitely different than what I'm used to - and I think it really made all the difference. This is easily my favorite drink of the new year, out of all the recent spots I've had matcha drinks from. Card only. Parking is easy - at least it was when I stopped by first thing in the morning. Note - it's in a busy shopping plaza anchored by Albertson's, Brodard, the four wildly popular Kei Concepts restaurants - so parking is tough during lunch/dinner/weekend hours. But... it's worth it! That matcha smoothie is something else for sure! I really hope they do well. I don't want to jinx anything - but the space that this cafe is in, has gone through like four different boba shops over the past few years (including two that opened and closed during the pandemic). It's almost like a "cursed" spot - except the one stand out though, is that of the four shops that has occupied this space, this is the only shop where the drink I picked up, I thoroughly enjoyed.

Decided to come back here because I was in the area getting Vox Kitchen.I got the osmanthus oolong milk tea and the Smokey b'lao milk tea which were both excellent. I got both drinks with boba and the boba was warm and chewy which is a big plus. Staff was nice and the place was clean as usual. Kiosk super convenient too. 4 stars for this place because I got my toppings this time!

Cute boba store with dog theme. Parking in the plaza is easy to find. There was a kiosk to order beside in-person order. The wait time was okay. We came there during non-peak hours and the store was not crowded, but had to wait for a while for our drinks. It was worth the wait though. So glad we were able to find milk tea with strong, bold tea flavor: Smoky B'Lao milk tea in the milk tea specialty menu. There were only 2 types of boba: normal boba and brown sugar boba, with addition of oolong tea jelly. I got the Smoky B'Lao milk tea with 75% sweetness with oolong jelly, and it was perfect. The flavor tasted exactly like that in Vietnam. The passion fruit tea was very refreshing too. We will come back soon to try other drinks on the menu.

As a regular here I recommend most of their milk teas with confidence. Service is quick and the staff is polite and friendly. Just one thing for the owner tho, if you're reading this review, please update your cups and lids. 3/10 times the drinks leak from the bottom of the cup, and other time they drip out of the paper cover on top.
