Meet Fresh | San Mateo — Restaurant in San Mateo

The desserts here are good, but not worth the price. I have tried a few things from here, which are their black sugar boba fresh milk, their fluffy ube smoothie (with boba) from their ube series, their strawberry green tea (with boba), and their medium mangoberry shaved ice. For the boba drinks, I have felt that they are just... eh. For what was paid, I didn't particularly enjoy my drink. None of them fulfilled me, it always felt like there was something missing from them; the ube smoothie didn't feel smooth enough, the strawberry green tea didn't feel sweet enough, and the fresh milk was actually too sweet. It's a shame you can't customize sweetness level, at least when ordering from the self-serve kiosk. The boba pearls themselves were also not chewy or flavorful enough for my liking, and the pearl-tea ratio was never that great either. I can get better boba drinks at other places for lower prices.

As for the shaved ice, it was so delicious, but also not worth the price that is paid. It could definitely be made at home if you wanted to put the effort into it. All it is is shaved ice, fruits, fruit syrup and ice cream.

I don't hate the products by any means. I just think they are a tiny bit less than okay for what you pay, and I prefer a lot of other dessert and boba shops before this one. The atmosphere and service saves it for me, the store is really cozy. Overall, I'll probably come again on rare...

A really top tier Chinese desserts restaurant. Super modern dining environment and queue to order your desserts. There is HUGE variety of desserts to choose from, many of which are shareable, but also personal desserts. The variety is quite impressive and will suit anyone's palate. It was pretty hard to choose a dessert to go with since everything looked so good. We settled for some shareable desserts and enjoyed them thoroughly. The mochi was delicious and had the classic chewy, but soft and tender texture you'd expect from high quality mochi. The pudding paired with them was fantastic. Had my first almond pudding there and it was fantastic; a new tasty flavour I enjoyed. Seating was plentiful and lighting of the store and decorations was on point and very nice. I loved the creativity of the chicken wire clouds too- subtle ,but very effective. As we dined some Chinese commercials played displaying more of their desserts which was nice to watch and have in the background, giving us ideas for what we could order next time. Really great place to grab dessert if you're...

This location is the worst Meet Fresh I’ve been to. My friends and I waited for about 25 minutes on a Friday night for our order. When I came to ask, our bowl was seen unattended on the back counter. The staff member went around asking others who was working on that order and nobody seemed to know. Instead of making a new bowl, she placed the bowl in the microwave and told me she would call the order number. I asked her to remake the order because that bowl has been sitting out unattended and who knows for how long. A few minutes later, she called our number. When I came for the order, a lady who appeared to be the supervisor asked me if it is my order. She had to confirm the order with the staff member who remade the order first. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. It took over 30 minutes to receive our hot order, and the order was not even hot after being made a second time. The tofu pudding and taro were lukewarm and the grass jelly was cold. Wait time, service, and food are not the best at...
