I reviewed this place 5 years ago. Time to update it!
This was the first ever Taiwanese shaved ice and Boba place in west Miramar when I first moved here. This place holds a very special place in my heart. Initially they had shaved ice and different types of Boba. Then they introduced mangonadas, Thai rolled ice cream, and their poke bowls.
The cute sticky note wall doubles as a poke stop (if you play Pokémon Go).
My favorites: Thai milk tea, Avocado smoothie, coffee milk tea, taro smoothie. You can choose the sweetness. Their tapioca pearls are consistently chewy - never too over or under cooked.
My go to: a large poke bowl (so you can get two types of meat. I always go for spicy tuna and spicy salmon). Then you choose between sushi rice, brown rice or salad. And choose your veggie / fruit toppings, condiments, etc.
This place is perfect if you want to hang out with friends, catch up with someone, or even go on a first date! There's also some outdoor seating (about two tables with a few chairs). & don't forget your loyalty punch card!
My favorite place. I have to go at least 1-2x/week. Have brought friends and family and they have enjoyed it too. Love the consistency of the snow ice. I also feel as if their tapioca is perfect - not over or...
Read moreI've been going here since 2018... but not often; like twice a year (no lie). Every time I go, "I'll give it another shot..." I became more and more unhappy about it. It's not horrible, but definitely had better. Today will probably be my last time visiting. I got two boba tea and one poke bowl. All three were not good. I got coconut milk tea, tell me why, it is brown like coffee... it tasted like old cooked tapioca and black tea mix. It was not good, definitely not coconut. The other was their famous butterfly litchi tea... it was so sweet, I basically spit and you can taste the tea was OLD. If you are a tea person like me, you will know when the tea has sat too long. Then the poke was ok... because THANK GOD we did not get any protein, (I might be sick now), and the seaweed salad was not fresh. Everything else was ok because it was basic, salad, carrots, onions, and rice (rice was not mixed like sushi rice). I'm sorry, but I won't recommend this place. I did give it two stars because I've had the shave and rolled ice cream and it was ok... nothing special, just ok. Not worth...
Read more0 stars. They do not practice food safety.. This restaurant (also known as Poke to Go) served my wife spoiled rotten imitation crab. My wife often gets crabmeat (imitation crab) from sushi spots. This place served her rotten crabmeat in her poke bowl. When we called them to tell them, they said that "it's impossible that it was spoiled because [they] make everything fresh every day." They then proceeded to tell us that "it's not possible that it was spoiled because it was imitation crab"............. as if the fish that makes the imitation crab can't spoil?? They showed no concern with the potential food sickness they gave my wife. She then proceeded to tell us that "if that really did happen then sorry about that". Still denying their wrongdoing. My only reasoning for calling to alert them was to encourage them to be more cautious when it comes to food safety so they aren't serving their customers rotten food. We will not be returning...
