    This is a COLD drink. Tiramisu matcha latte. Sweet & matchaie on top. Tasty matcha drink at the bottom.

    My go order is peach orange oolong tea! Crowded on the weekend so order ahead via online app like DoorDash. I also love their book bag and tea tins that you can buy and make your own tea at home.

    Sometimes, I get to feel like I'm cool with Gen Z because I'm lucky to have a niece and nephew that tell me where to get the latest and greatest. In this case, one of these spots is Arisan. Since Matcha has exploded in popularity to my annoyance, (I say this because I was into Matcha before it started trending), I had to try. Once inside, everything looks aesthetically pleasing with seating on either side up against the walls. The layout is clean and non cluttered which I can appreciate from a design standpoint. The menu is clearly displayed on the countertop and it's nice to see that you still have an actual person to take your order. No iPad ordering here. Please keep it that way! I also loved the high ceilings and bright light from the floor to ceiling windows in the front. As you look to the right, you can also see all the Arisan branded products including canvas tote bags and loose leaf tea canisters lining the wall shelves. Nice touch. Now let's get to the good stuff. They specifically told me about one drink that was so unique and refreshing. Which drink was it? **Matcha Cloud Coconut Water $8.95- 100% fresh young coconut water + Matcha cream: This drink was so unique because the coconut water was so distinct and refreshing. The Matcha cream sat on top before slowly trickling down to mix in with the coconut water. I would have never thought to put these 2 flavors together. It was delicious especially on a day where it was 97 degrees here in SJ.

    A tea and coffee shop at story road specialized in matcha , milk tea, coffee, fruit tea and other cold drink. It also serves pastries. The shop is not that big but it has table and seating area. I stopped by while waiting for table for my lunch. I order mango passion fruit oolong tea. Phin black. The drink were ready pretty quickly. The mango passion fruit oolong tea was nice. The coffee is nice too. The service was nice and will stop by again next time to try other drink.

    Matcha on matcha

    I got the matcha on matcha. Matcha was such good quality and so smooth, absolutely loved it!

    Cute tea and coffee house in San Jose! The salty egg yolk cake was solid, I loved the flavor of the salty egg and the soft, airy texture of the cake. I tried a Matcha Tiramisu Latte and thought it was good but not exactly what I was expecting. The matcha isn't too strong and the tiramisu part of the drink was a ladyfinger on the side in which you can choose to dip into the drink. The place was packed and busy. But still a good spot to try out if you don't mind a short wait

    Arisan has been on my list to try for a while. Usually when I am in the area, there's a line - especially on weekends. Anywho, I came here one afternoon weekday and got a Pandan green milk tea and a corn choux pastry. It was my first time having a Pandan green milk tea, it was pretty good. The corn choux pastry was also something new for me as I've never had a corn flavored one before. Very good. Overall, will be back to try their other drinks as I heard their matcha is good as well as their salted egg cake.

    Jasmine milk tea
    Dominic N.

    I actively dislike: Jasmine Oolong Milk Tea I ordered the Jasmine Oolong Milk Tea for takeout, and unfortunately, it was pretty disappointing. The tea itself tasted very mid from the first sip, and there was nothing memorable about the flavor. The biggest issue was the aftertaste, which lingered in my mouth even after swallowing and made the drink hard to enjoy. Since this was a takeout order, I did not have much interaction with the service, but the ordering experience was straightforward enough. Nothing stood out in a particularly positive or negative way there. I also did not spend much time inside, so I cannot fully speak to the ambiance. Based on this drink alone, though, Arisan Tea House did not leave much of an impression. The Jasmine Oolong Milk Tea was forgettable at first and unpleasant by the end.

    If you're looking for a really yummy and refreshing drink, definitely check out Arisan Tea & Coffee!!! I came here with friends, and we all got different drinks. They ordered the mango passion fruit tea and the strawberry matcha latte, while I got the tropical fruit tea. My friends were kind enough to let me try their drinks, and I have to say everything was refreshing, cooling, and super tasty. My tropical fruit tea was really good too! The atmosphere was chill, the decor was nice, and it was just a great spot to relax and hang out with friends. Definitely check it out if you're around the area!

    Matcha Tiramisu
    Allena C.

    I passed by this shop after having lunch in the area and thought to try one of their drinks. It's a cute, well-kept cafe with modern aesthetic vibes. They have a few tables inside and outside, if you'd like to enjoy your tea or coffee in-house. I looked at the menu near the entry and placed my order with an efficient and friendly barista. I wanted to try something different, so I ordered a Matcha Tiramisu Latte thinking there would be some essence of tiramisu in the drink. It was good, though I ordered it because I thought there'd be something more like a splash of coffee liqueur to taste like tiramisu. I guess I should have studied the menu a bit more before making assumptions. Nonetheless, the matcha drink had a nice mascarpone creamy foam top and rich matcha flavor. The lady finger was crispy and light perfect for dipping into the matcha drink. If I'm ever in the area again, I would pass on the Matcha Tiramisu Latte and try their Strawberry Matcha drink instead. That might be a better option, knowing there will be another layering flavor other than matcha.

    Peach orange oolong tea 4/5: refreshing and bright Jasmine oolong tea with salted cream 3/5: forgettable We mayy consider trying the matcha if we're back in this plaza due to its popularity, but with all of the great options in the South Bay, I'd probably skip.

    Jasmine Milk Tea with jelly
    Dana L.

    Stopped by Arisan Tea & Coffee House and was really impressed! The place was super busy when we went, which is always a good sign, but they had plenty of seating so it still felt comfortable. Parking is a pain though, it's in the middle of Vietnam town which is always packed. I ordered the jasmine milk tea with jelly and it was good the tea had a nice floral flavor, tasted fresh, though I would prefer it to be more sweet. The jelly was a great add-on too. I can tell why this place is popular! I want to try the matcha einspinnar next because I heard that was popular. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm in the area!

    strawberry matcha einspanner latte
    Jakki N.

    Love Arisan, but wish they never took off the coconut matcha latte off their menu :( This place is so cute, wait time can get crazy, it can also get crazy packed inside during peak hours. Their matcha is pretty strong and is probably one of the view places that has me wired. The matcha honey latte is perfect, strawberry matcha einspanner is a little more on the sweet side for me (can't make less sweet). Everytime I've come here for matcha the quality is pretty consistent! They also sell yummy cakes in their display case, I'll definitely have to try sometime!

    Strawberry Matcha Einspanner
    Zenny D.

    Hands down my favorite matcha in the bay area. The strawberry puree is sweet yet subtle. The strawberry cold foam adds a nice touch to the drink and of course, the matcha is strong. I find myself halfway through the drink by the time I make it out the door.

    I am a picky person for boba stores, so finding this place is a goldmine (not really, can't think…read moreof a word). I like that the menu features drinks I have never seen before, like the Jasmine Green Rice, Traditional Purple Rice, and Cacao Thai. For the rice drinks, they use a Vietnamese rice called "soi", and it is a delicious ingredient with the coconut milk (non-caffeinated version. I am currently ordering the Jasmine Green Rice and Cacao Thai, so I hope it will be good. Be prepared to wait because they usually have one or two people being the cashier and making drinks. I hate it when the owner(s) don't hire more people when the worker(s) is struggling so hard. If you see this, hire more people and pay them a good wage. Stop being cheap. Treat your workers the way they deserved it. There's also multiple parking lots because this is in a strip mall. Ambiance is good. I am Asian, so I don't care about ambiance. Here it is the review though lmao.

The bits got stuck in the straw, and I spent a lot of time removing the seeds, though. Grab a spoon with the drink. The shop was very clean with lots of comfortable places to sit.

    Found my favorite childhood snack, mixed rice paper at Moc Delights--a fancier version of what I…read moreused to have in Vietnam. I love that the rice paper itself was flavorful, savory, spicy, shrimpy and garlicky. The tamarind sauce on the side was sweet and tangy. I like to pour it over the rice paper so it softened up. I also like the toppings they added for the mixed combo rice paper, nice blend of texture and flavors from jerky, pork rinds, mango, and egg. My personal favorite topping was the Vietnamese coriander, perfect to pair with the rice paper. I highly recommend the combo mixed rice paper. I also got their milk tea & coconut kumquat to try & tbh they were super disappointing. The milk tea & coconut kumquat were unbearably sweet, I couldn't even get to half of the cups. For the milk tea, the tea scent didn't pulled through at all. I was basically sipping on burnt sugary milk. Overall, giving this place 3/5 star because they need to improve their drinks.

Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location. The winchester Blvd one has more if that's what you're looking for. Their pastries are also all yummy and they sell their matcha powder for $60 for 100g which is a GREAT price for a great matcha. I would've gate kept this place but everyone already knows about it so I HAVE to show them the love they deserve!!

I've had all 3 and love them all, but the Pandan Dream is my favorite. Easily the best pandan latte I've ever had.
