Pretty good boba spot! This shop is located along N King St in a small plaza with a shaved ice spot next door. You can generally find parking in the lot or nearby on the street (metered). The inside of the shop is relatively spacious with seating throughout; it can get a bit busy in the afternoons after school finishes. I ordered the mochi taro milk with boba and no sugar. The staff member helping me was polite, and my order came out quickly. I really liked my drink! The mochi layer had a soft, pleasing mouthfeel, and the boba was nice and chewy. The taro drink was creamy and not too sweet either, pairing really well with the mochi.Would definitely be interested in coming back to get the other drinks on their menu!

Tried these 2 customized cakes (matcha- bento size and ube- heart shaped) that my sister ordered for her birthday and my son's one month. The cake designs did not disappoint us. Found my new fave matcha cake. The matcha filling was on point and full of flavor. It goes well with the cake itself, spongy/fluffy. The ube cake had a strong nutty flavor and it was still good.

Dessert in Kalihi, Honolulu, Hawaii...Located between a pawn shop and a vape shop... there is a cute, cozy small business named U*Ni Sweets Bakery & Tea. In the past, I visited this space when it had a different name, and the same concept: Instagram-worthy decor where customers can hang out to study and/or chat.Service can improve. Example: I ordered Lychee Peach Tea. The monitor showed that the drink would have cheese topping. I told the young gal that I didn't want cheese. She wasn't able to remove it, but said she'd remember to not include it. I noted that the price with cheese is higher. She couldn't adjust the price, so I just changed my order. English as a second language could be the barrier. Also, that menu item didn't match the computer system. I did enjoy the Mix Fruit Four Seasons Tea with slices/chunks of fresh fruits (lemon, lime, orange, strawberry, watermelon, and passionfruit). I also got the Taro Rice Yogurt, which was healthy, filling, and tasty!I would bring my niece's here - they'd like this vibe and environment! They might want a slice of strawberry Shortcake or Ube Mille crepe cake, too! Those looked yummy!Note: they have a clean, convenient restroom!

New dessert and tea spot in Kalihi. Parking is very small and limited. Went on a weekday. Cafe was pretty spacious and cute decor.I stopped by during their special promotion for grand opening. Got a drink and a cake for $1.99. Ordered the mango cheese tea and the ube millie crepe. Love the drink, has the tea aroma in the drink. Sugar and ice level is adjustable. Ube millie crepe was lite. Not too sweet either. Desserts and drinks are very good. I don't know if I want to pay that much for it though.

What a sweet place...After all this location was once Sweets by Sweeties and they did pretty much kept the layout but gave it their own "sweet" touches. I do absolutely love the varieties of seating so that groups of guest can find their own space without being in someone else's space.After still feeling a bit jet lagged that I guess age must've have a role as I've never felt this exhausted and knew exactly what I needed is a nice fruity cup of tea and was quite surprised to find U-ni Sweets and just loved the vibe they've created here and though I knew exactly what I wanted "Mixed Fruit Four Seasons Tea" and though I didn't say it was quite disappointed they never asked about the sweetness level and Ice choices and made it 100%, thankfully it wasn't too sweet though I do prefer 25% and light ice.I did come for tea but the display case filled with sweets did piqued my interest and asked about the cute round cakes which turned out to be their lava cakes and between the two one was obviously red velvet but the other was black sesame...oooooohhh! Had to get that one to go and oh how they pack it so nice and safely for the trip home they do take every precaution which I do like and don't skimp on the box which makes it also makes it great for gifting. It's probably since it's kept refrigerated but the grand revealing wasn't as spectacular lol very little if ever any flow happened but that cake was very light and airy and the black sesame cream wasn't sweet with the hint of sesame is such a delicate treat and ate it up in minutes.They also had a Creme brûlée Coffee Mille Crepe Cake that I was eyeing...so you know I'm coming back for that with a cup of tea sounds like the perfect place for that and more/Thank you!

Welcome U-ni Sweets! A new fusion bakery and bubble tea shop in Kalihi. U-ni's IG-worthy desserts are very light and full of whipped cream.Instead of their lava cakes having a warm molten center, these cakes have a collar, that when lifted, releases a flood of icing that erupts over the cake.The bento cakes are mini cakes in flavors like mango, Oreo, and salted egg yoke with pork floss.There are different flavored tiramisus and croissants that are filled and iced.A slice of chocolate cake was light in flavor and texture, with only a hint of chocolate in the flecks of chocolate in the whipped cream.The ube crepe cake was very pretty with over 20 layers of thin crepe, moistened and held together with whipped cream. While it was pleasantly tender and fresh, it was barely sweet and tasted like batter and cream.While the desserts are light, the milk teas are heavy. The brûlée devil milk tea had a cheese foam and ube devil milk tea had custard at the bottom. We got the drinks 50% sweet and wished we'd asked for 25% instead. The brûlée tasted like brown sugar syrup. The ube tasted like ube and powdered milk.If you like whipped cream, U-ni is perfect for you! Enjoy an individual dessert and get your camera ready!

Ube Mille Crepe Cake: Twenty five layers of ube crepe, covered and topped with light ube tasting frosting. Pineapple Passion Fruit Cake: Equally balanced taste of baked pineapple and passion fruit in dense cake and frosting. Cheese Lychee Peach: Cheese Foam at the top balanced sweetness of diced lychee jelly and peach tea. I didn't stir my beverage. Eventually cheese foam tasted rich and will gradually make its way to the bottom. My desserts and beverage were delectable. I've definitely enjoyed my sweets! Courteous and helpful customer service from two kind ladies. First worker asked if I wanted my order for here or to go. I informed her for here and another worker was very thoughtful to bring a dessert plate with paper liner and fork to the table. Free parking available in the lot. My only wish is for this shop to offer non dairy alternatives: almond, oat and/or soy for milk teas. Only whole milk is offered and provided for milk teas. I would definitely return to satisfy my sweet tooth craving and modern ambience.
