Review Title: An Absolute NightmareâAvoid at All Costs
This so-called boba shop is a complete disgrace. From the moment I walked in, I knew I had made a terrible mistake. The place was dimly lit like they were hiding something (probably health code violations), and the floor was sticky enough to rip the soles off my shoes.
I ordered a simple brown sugar milk tea, but apparently, that was asking too much. The cashier stared at me like Iâd just spoken an alien language, sighed dramatically, and finally rang up my order with all the enthusiasm of a sloth on NyQuil.
After waiting an agonizing 45 minutes, I received what I can only describe as an insult in a cup. The milk was curdled, the tea tasted like burnt dirt, and the boba pearls? Oh, those were the worst partârubbery, stale, and somehow managed to taste both bitter and flavorless at the same time. They might as well have been gravel.
As if that werenât enough, the place was swarming with flies, the AC was broken, and the music blasting over the speakers was so loud and obnoxious that I left with a headache. Honestly, I think theyâre conducting some kind of psychological experiment to see how much misery a person can endure for a drink.
I wouldnât recommend this place to my worst enemy. Itâs a stain on humanity and a crime against bubble tea. If I could go back in time and stop myself from stepping through their door, Iâd do it in...
   Read moreIt has been four years since I've been here. The service did improve; however, the food quality decreased. I should've taken pictures, but I was too hungry for that.
So I ordered the Vietnamese sandwich combo; which includes a milk tea and an order of the fried octopus. The combo came out first. The sandwich was sad. It had one piece of meat, a slice of carrot and daikon, and three strips of cilantro. It was hella dry. The meat was bland. On my last two bites, there was a squirt of mayo, which made it taste a little better.đ The tea was decent with no complaints to the taste, but it wasn't filled all the way to the top. When the fried octopus came out it was hot and ready; however, they were pretty skimpy on the quantity as if there was a size small and large order.
Would I return here after this visit? Most definitely NOT. With many negative reviews, I would assume they would take them into consideration and improve areas that need to be improved. I'm assuming, they don't care about their clientele!? To say the least, their restroom & dining...

I ordered the eggrolls and it had taro, LOVE! The popcorn chicken was fried perfectly, crispy on the outside and juicy inside. The mini banh mi was the perfect size and packed with flavor, and the banh trang tron had the best sauce. The burger and fries tasted like true comfort food, and the takoyaki was crispy and flavorful.
For drinks, I tried the âblue drinkâ that tastes just like cotton candy milk tea, a classic jasmine milk tea, and the cantaloupe slushy which was super refreshing.
Quickly Milpitas definitely hits different now, and the $8.99 banh mi + milk tea combo makes it even better. Highly recommend...
