First time visitor today! I saw a video on Instagram of the Coco Lunar Berry drink and I was smitten. I ended up ordering the Blossom Berry instead because I'm not a huge fan of a lot of coconut, but the Blossom Berry is delicious and I'm very happy! The energy and vibe inside the cafe is so joyous and heartwarming, and it's a much needed pick-me-up right now. Wish I had discovered this spot sooner, especially since I live so close, but better late than never!
UPDATE (2/14): I've been to XFT three times in the past 11 days and each time has been a perfect experience! Aside from the fun scratch offs and free tokens to play the claw machines, the employees have always been super kind and the atmosphere is so joyful. And tonight I just had a pleasant surprise! I ordered two drinks (a Thai tea & peach tea), and when they presented the drinks to me, they were already in a cup holder inside a FREE cute insulated to-go bag!! Absolutely genius. The price is worth EVERY PENNY...
Read moreWe've been here twice now, and the boba is absolutely dynamite. It's so good that we drive 45 minutes just to go to this place (because we live in a boba desert). I get the flaming brown sugar boba milk (#1), and it is perfect without adjusting the sweetness. I've been to about 20 other bona places and usually cut the sugar by 50%, but it is unnecessary here.
The boba is made fresh in store. There's a giant wok where you can see them making it. The boba is softer than boba from most other places, but I love it. The downside is that the fresh boba will spoil you when you try the places at the mall, etc., as it blows those places out of the water.
There's also a caramelized brown sugar on top of the #1 drink that adds a nice depth to it.
The restaurant is very clean, the service is efficient, and the staff is very kind. We will be back often.
My daughter got the peach kirin on one trip and the strawberry on another. She loved both.
I can't recommend this place...
Read moreBeing from Gen X Boba drinks are very much new to me and before coming here I tried it 2-3 times and never liked it. That’s why I always preferred Pearls over Boba. Since their signature dish was Boba Milk so I thought to give it a try. And honestly I just loved it. What a flavor of brown sugar with amazing milk. We got Signature Boba drink that was 10/10, Boba Tea that was 8/10. Chocolate Milk Boba 8.5/10 and Strawberry Milk 6/10. The line was quite long, waited 30 mins but it was worth the wait.

Above format would be best to justify my review so i will hopefully continue to keep this for all my next reviews.
Update (Oct-29-2022): From the day we tried Soft Serve Brown Sugar Ice Cream with Boba, it has became top one for us. What a creamy ice cream with Authentic...
