The server was friendly and prepared our drinks promptly. They even have Wifi, which is awesome! And, there's not much of a line, and we easily found seats, among the less than dozen seats. They picked a great location - the parking is easy and it's close to my house =)
However, As a Milk tea aficionado, I was disappointed with the taste - it's not the best milk tea i've had - far from it. My wife and I ordered the Regular tapioca milk tea and the Strawberry milk tea. The milk tea was a bit tasteless, and the strawberry milk tea tasted nothing like any strawberry milk tea I've ever had, not in a good way. Perhaps, they use less sugar in their recipe - this would be a good thing, if they at least had a nutritional label. Without a label, you can't quantify it. Quickly's tastes better, even when ordered with half sugar. The tapioca balls were mushy and stuck together at the bottom of the drink. With their unusually flattened straws, it made it hard to suck out even the normal tapioca balls. The decoration isn't great either - the couch looks cold and unwelcoming. And like many such places, they don't even offer a bathroom. I think 3 stars is being generous. Sorry... I wanted to like this place.
Keep working on the recipe - this place...

As soon as you walk in, the place smells faintly of Sanrio's bubblegum erasers. Lol.. Brings back a lot of teenage memories. Besides being a boba place, they also sell Snoopy cups, popular animation keychains, assorted Hi-Chew gums as well as snacks. There are numerous games available to play when sit-in dining is allowed again. Ordered a Pina Colada smoothie with tapioca pearls. Nice flavor and thickness despite it being pricier than other typical boba tea places. Gotta try anyplace once. As a sidenote, there is a sign that states this place gets sanitized by UV light. Wonder how well UV light works to...
Read moreThis place has been around for many years. The prices for the boba drinks were average until they did a remodel of the store and raised the prices. It cost me $7.00 for a large strawberry smoothie with boba! Way too much to pay as far as I'm concerned! The store was not busy when I was there and two workers were standing at the counter chatting. I sat at the counter in front of the window. The counter and window needed to be wiped down and there were little flies or mats all around me! I left and don't...
