This place is ok, I've come twice so far. Decent place for egg waffles...but I can't recall if egg waffles usually cool down as fast as they do here. I came to post this review to remind myself and everyone that plans to go here, don't get the strawberry milk tea. I pray that you don't have to experience this drink like I had to. The color was crazy artificial as well as the taste. I had a flashback of the liquid medicine we had to take as children except it was milky. Please save yourself by getting something else unless this is what you're after.
The previous visit I had a grapefruit green tea and their sign says that they use organic grapefruit juice and they put in a grapefruit slice in their drink. It was bitter for me but maybe cuz I ordered it with less sugar.
Order with low expectations. You can pay with cash, go up to the register and call for someone to take your order. Prices are reasonable here. I think flavored drinks are $5.50 and the boba is included. The grapefruit green tea was $5 with boba included. Other toppings are an additional $0.75.
If you think they are taking a long time with your order and you used the kiosk outside, you should check in with them. Sometimes the orders don't go through due to their wifi (happened to me the first time I went). Make sure to print...
Read moreI ventured into this place with hopes of savoring authentic Asian desserts, and while my overall experience was normal, I want to share some additional details. This sweet haven is tucked away in a small shop nestled in Chinatown. Upon arrival, I realized that the service process here is quite peculiar; you take your order yourself and then simply wait for it to be delivered to you.
We opted for the Oreo Bingsu and the Nutella crepe, two choices that promised to satisfy my sweet cravings. However, the wait to receive our order was longer than expected, almost 20 minutes, despite the place not being particularly crowded. This aspect could be an inconvenience for those in a hurry, although personally, I found the delay to be an opportunity to enjoy the diversity of Asian treats adorning the cozy space.
What makes this place interesting is that, despite its small size and unique service approach, the desserts showcase an authenticity and quality worth highlighting. Additionally, I appreciate the attentive attitude of the staff, even though most of them are older individuals. In summary, this is a charming corner in Chinatown where you can take your own order, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Asian sweets, and enjoy authentic flavors in a...
Read moreThe food was 10/10, ordered 4 items for $43 and stayed for over an hour. Arrived at 10:58, waited for him to open, then hit right away as he opened at 11 AM. He works very hard, he was alone in the kitchen through all of it. My order took so long that a line started to form and my friends and I felt so bad. It was all amazing, I dream about his food and this shop. If I lived in SF, I would come here every day. Came back later that day right before he closed at 8 and he closed up while we were waiting inside. Ordered another $30 worth of food and he didn't remember us until he was told we were the people with a big order from this morning. Well, we all ordered separately so all 4 items in the pic were mine and I killed it all within 45 minutes.
TL;DR, this guy deserves the world. 1000% recommend Also good...
