MILQ Tea Lounge — Restaurant in San Jose

This place is always changing. It doesn't know what it wants to be. Their logo is constantly changing. This is like the third time their logo has changed. I'm not sure if the seats are finalized, but don't get too attached to them. They might change again.

Drinks: Coco Island taste delicious. It's like drinking a fresh coconut. The jelly compliments it. The drink consist of coconut juice, rainbow jelly and noodle jelly. It even has sliced of coconut skin!

The Tahoe taste refreshing. The drink consist of watermelon black tea, grass jelly, and basil seed. The grass jelly and basil seed makes it a great combination with the drink.

Pineapple Butterfly Pea Tea. Its no longer on the menu. This drink was sweet even at 50% sweetness. They took it off the menu and replaced it with a drink called Nebula. The Nebula has the same Lemon juice and butterfly pea tea, but without the clear boba.

Milq. Jasmine milk tea w/ house made flan. It's an interesting mix. Not sure if the flan is a good combination. It's easy to drink, but I think I prefer it separate from my milk tea. It's not bad by all means.

Cornstar. It's basically corn milk. You have a sweet corn after taste. It's not the same as eating a corn, which I prefer to eat versus drinking it. This drink can be skipped. Go with one of the other tea drink instead.

Food: Popcorn chicken is good. It could be better. Nothing special to other milk tea joints. Its fried in oil. Paprika placed on top with fried basil on the side. The kitchen is not available after 1130pm, so come earlier if you want snacks.

Calamari: The calamari is the same as other joints. Nothing special. It uses the same ingredients as the popcorn chicken except the meat source.

Ambience: Update for 09/03/2018. They put seat cushion for all the plastic white seats. Poor seat choice if you asked me. They should of just kept it the original.

Update for 08/20/2018. They finally removed those coffee shop tables and removed some of the booths. The neon lights have been removed. The menu has also been tweak.

07/27/2018. The place still have the vibe of the old business, which was a vietnamese bar. There are neon lights on the ceiling. The tables have bubble machines that are see through. Televisions are along the walls. Music is constantly playing. There are weird balls hanging from the ceiling, which doesn't match the decor. The menu is...

Didn't felt welcome, worker never said hi and when I order drinks she didn't know what was the drinks until I pointed out. The worker had this high class stuck up attitude. I order 3 drinks but she only rang up 2 drinks and walk away. When I ask what happen to the 3rd drinks. Another worker said it was sold out. If its sold out why didn't the first worker said something or tell me it's sold out instead of walking away without saying a words. The place look like it was cater to certain type of people but noone is coming due to poor workers and words of mouth. The workers have this "I'm better then you artitude" I came here and gave it a try because I'm out of town and first time here. I never understand why asian always treat other asian so poorly even when we come and support but make us feel unwelcome. No wonder this place is empty on a Saturday. The local know something that I didn't. I should have walk out the moment I wasn't greeted and when the place is empty and looks like it is close. "THE LOCALS KNOW...

READ IT! I went there 2 times by accident, because I couldn't find it later. IT WAS GREAT! For some reason my girlfriend and I couldn't find it on Google or Yelp! And we searched for this place for HOURS!

It has an amazing atmosphere with all those bubbly tables and walls. Trippy and amazing.

We found this place again by accident and this time we won't lose it. Every time we want boba we go there for sure. The best atmosphere in California 🥰🥰🥰

Owners: make your boba...
