I went here two years ago and it's come up in my thoughts several times since. So I finally ventured back and was still in love with the desserts! I got the ube vanilla soft serve swirl with cheese foam. The soft serve is so creamy. I love the ube vanilla mix, it's not overly sweet. The cheese foam was a great addition if I do say so myself, added a little tang and the texture is, well foamy yes, but a little sticky to contrast the ice cream. The serving size is quite large but I had no issues finishing it all. :0The inside of the store is clean, there's a good number of seats, and it was warmer in there in a great way since it's cold out and we're eating ice cream. The parking lot is insane though since it's in the lot of Trader Joe's and closer to ASU campus. Beware

High quality matcha treats at Premium Matcha Cafe Maiko @matchacafemaikoaz at 920 E University Dr Suite 106, Tempe, AZ 85288! Yummmmy! The ice cream is so creamy with large portions and good-quality matcha. I chose strawberry matcha because that combination goes so well together. I love it. My latte had bits of fresh, diced strawberry. We ordered:- Matcha Strawberry Latte Float抹茶いちごラテフロート- Ube Latte 紫芋ラテThere's plenty of seating inside the cafe as well as on the patio, in front of the cafe. There are long seating area against one wall where students were studying with matcha treats. There's a close-caption tv and music playing at low volume. There's a gender-neutral restroom for customers. Service is very friendly and fast!

First of all, I'm not a big Matcha person myself, but I will say this Matcha was a lot better than the previous matchas have tried such as Starbucks etc I would for sure pick this one over any other, just due to the fact that it has an more authentic flavor to it just drinking by itself and not having to add anything else to it Over all 8.5/10 The place is really nice and I'm decorating easy to read and understand the menu. Also, there is multiple seating Fairly quiet place if you do wanna come and study here Or hangout Service is also good

Anytime in the Tempe area it's always a good idea to stop by for a Matcha treat. Got the delicious Maiko Special and also got the last matcha Tiramisu. Both were light & delicious. Definitely highly recommend for your matcha fix.

Stopped by for a quick treat after dinner. Arrived around 8pm on a Thursday night and service was quick. It was relatively busy for a weekday and the space is open and clean. We got the matcha soft serve and the matcha strawberry latte. Both were tasty!

Very nice staff but unfortunately they had signs up saying "out of matcha" (for drinks) the day I visited. I ended up getting the chiffon cakes with cheese foam, and for $10, I thought it was average price wise. The cakes were soft, and matcha flavor in the cakes and dusted on top was prominent. However, I don't know if I just got a bad batch of cheese foam or if it was because it was the last amount of their container, as that unfortunately was was extremely salty. As a result, it was hard to eat most of the cake without adding my own milk (made into a tres leches) and whipped cream.

Matcha shaved ice was very bitter without the condense milk on it. Especially the bottom, the matcha tasted weird and it was not good. Guess I'll be sticking to their drinks instead!

What a super fun place! They were kind of busy when we walked in so I was impressed at the short time they took to get our orders out (for a group of 5). It's very cute inside and the service was friendly too! I would love to return if I find myself in the area again. Everything was so flavorful!

This place is so yum. We tried the Ube Maiko Special, which was unique because it was filled with different sorts of toppings. Everything was generously served, and it was very worth it for the price. I love how it has different topping variations, and the ube was super tasty and balanced. There were bite-size matcha cakes that went so well with the Ube. The flakes added crisp and crunch to the dessert. Overall, I would give this dessert a thumbs up; it might even be a double thumbs up for matcha lovers. Service was fast and efficient. The ambiance is excellent, and the outside is a great hangout place with a relaxed vibe.
