Asian Bowl-ba Cafe — Restaurant in Winter Haven

The service here was great the staff though young are very friendly. My husband and I stopped in and got a coffee milk tea and a taro boba tea. My husband liked the coffee. My taro was not the best one I have ever had but it was in the middle for taste. The boba in my drink was a tad extra chewy. The atmosphere for this place perplexed me it had a few themes going on. One part ice shop left in the 50s with pink bubble gum sofa, one part anime cafe with one piece playing with toys of hello kitty Pokémon and pocky figures. One other part of trendy instagram rose photo wall. It also had a splash of modern tables and chairs. They do have other Asian treats like bubble waffle cones, ramen and poke bowls. Overall not a bad experience just a tad disconnect on the theme and vibes...

Called at 710 to make a to go order. I asked the guy on the phone if the pho was meatball and he just said “I couldn’t tell you” and nothing else. I just said okay any beef is fine. I show up at 15 mins later and they didn’t have my order. Said their phone wasn’t working to call me back to tell me they were out of some items. Finally got the food 40 mins after the initial call, and the pho noodles were extremely mushy, basil brown/old, and they gave a tiny amount of broth. When asked for more broth, was told no, and my poke bowl had sauce all over it when I for it to be on the side. Cucumber in poke bowl tasted sour/rancid. Can’t believe this is 5 stars? I hate making bad reviews, but this was super bad. The tiger tea was good. Everything else went...

Formerly just an ice cream shop (Wish Upon a Cone or something), this place offers asian dishes as well as a variety of ice creams. Today, I tried the tonkotsu ramen, and while certainly not on the same level as that of the Joinery's Sabu Ramen (I've yet to encounter a bowl that is), this particular bowl was hearty, tasty, and rich as hell. If you want some good ice cream, a good bowl of ramen, and a comfortable atmosphere, visit...
