    Smashed avocado
    Kreesha E.

    My family and I each got the smashed avocado. It's less like bambu's version and reminds me of the avocado condensed milk dessert growing up. Very busy but didn't take too long. No frills place, but you do have an option to sit and enjoy your sweet treats

    I stopped by since it's been over 5 years now. The small business was kind of suffering back then. Nowadays, beverages are much better in taste, but note, it's pricey for over $8 per beverage dessert now (with taxes included). You would think this food court area would have more affordable options, but don't expect it here. Selections are still good and size cup too. My regular Halo Halo still tasted good. Fried food items are decent. Cashier was quick and efficient. Cash and cards accepted. No self service kiosk though. Place isn't huge, but it's an old spot for convenience. At least there's still lots of tables and chairs here. They used to take a long time here when processing customer orders. I'm glad they've improved a bit. Place can use an upgrade in interior design these days. It's a casual place to grab and go. You can try ice cream sandwiches or buy bags of lumpia. As long as beverage desserts still taste good, it's definitely surviving.

    Smashed avocado w/ no sugar

    Whenever my mom and I visit Seafood City, stopping by Aroma is an absolute must. One drink we can't resist is their smashed avocado drink--it's our go-to every time! We always order it with no sugar because, honestly, that's the best way to enjoy it. The natural flavors of the fresh avocado, jellies, and other toppings shine through without any added sweetness. In my opinion, it's always a solid 10/10--refreshing, flavorful, and the perfect treat! If you're looking for a place with delicious drinks and snacks, Aroma is the spot to be. I highly recommend giving it a try, especially if you love avocado-based drinks!

    Smashed Avocado
    Sherica G.

    Been going here since forever... still the best smashed avocado I have ever tasted. Although now, I request for just 50% sugar, not bec it is too sweet with 100%, but just bec I am more aware to take care of myself. And honestly, lessening the sugar did not lessen the quality.

    We were in the area running errands and had one last stop to the Great Mall down the street. Aroma Coffee and Snacks offers a variety of Vietnamese Desserts (Che), coffee drinks, fresh juices, smoothies, milk tea drinks, and snacks. I ordered the Avocado Smash and I would confidently argue that this dessert drink is the star of the drink menu. It was perfect on all accounts for a dessert drink -- bite size avocado bits with tapioca everything. It's one of those things that can't be described, only experienced! We ordered some snacks to share: French Fries and Crispy Shrimp Rolls. There is a small dining area in the front and a bigger one toward the back door leading to the parking lot. It's located as a stand inside an indoor mall so you'll feel more foot traffic than usual compared to a traditional storefront. I will make it a point to stop in for an Avocado Smash from their menu when I'm in Milpitas again. My only critique is when I ask for extra ketchup for my fries (which I had to twice), please give me more than 3 ketchup packets at a time. I know times are tough but it's a big basket of fries to get through with just 3 packets of ketchup. Photo attached for a visual. We were generous with gratuity ($7) of a $28 bill for two drinks and two snacks -- you could have just given me extra ketchup the first time I asked. Sigh.

    3.5 stars. Aroma Coffee and Snacks is located in the plaza that has Seafood City, Korea Garden, Goldilocks, etc. A small shop that has vietnamese drinks, che desserts, snacks, etc. Dark Grass Jelly was good and creamy. It was filled with mung beans, coconut milk, agar agar, and grass jelly. Tasty. The cashier is friendly. I assume she's the owner. Quick and easy to order. Cash or card for payment. They also have an area to sit and enjoy.

    My go-to spot after grocery shopping at Seafood City. I haven't really tried any other dessert drink besides their smashed avocado which is always my go-to and it's always satisfying every single time. The avocados are ripe and they give just the right amount of jelly toppings and ice. I recently tried their smashed avocado purple rice drink and it was bomb. I'm a fan of purple sticky rice so adding it to the smashed avocado drink added a nice texture/taste to the overall drink.

    Jen V.

    This place is my go to place for Smashed Avocado while my boys love the Taro Smashed. I have not tried their other drinks but I'm sure they are all good. They now have Halohalo, maybe I should try that next time I come.

    LOVE! BEST SMASHED AVOCADO! They have really great dessert drinks and ice cream macaroons too! Located inside the shopping center

    Thai and egg pudding dessert
    Sami S.

    They have refreshing Vietnamese Che (dessert drinks). Toppings in the desserts have become scarce lately. Price is about $6.50 depending on which ones you get. A complaint is that they should have the prices listed on the menu, but it is nowhere to be found. The price is comparable to boba drinks next door, but the the toppings are better. The smashed avocado is popular here. I've tried the Thai, the egg pudding, mango tango, cassava, young coconut, saba & halo halo desserts. They're all good. The cassava has real chunks in it. The saba may be seasonal and I feel that the cantaloupe is too thick to suck up the straw- you can ask for a spoon to eat it. They used to offer snacks, but they've made the menu more simplified.

The cafe itself is really cute and aesthetically pleasing, with lots of plants, floral prints, and pretty lighting. There are a couple of tables outside and quite a few cozy couches and chairs inside, so the space definitely has a nice vibe. However, I think the service and ordering process could use some improvement. There was only one person working, and he was clearly very busy and overwhelmed trying to make drinks for everyone. There was also no one else available to take orders. They do have a self-service kiosk, but I couldn't find all of the menu options on it, so I had to ask the person working for help. I felt bad because he was already so busy making drinks, but he was really kind and came over to help. Even he couldn't figure out why I wasn't able to order it through the kiosk, so he ended up making the drink for me himself. The good news is that the latte was actually really good! I think having another person working during busy hours or improving the ordering system would make a huge difference. Overall, I liked the cafe and the atmosphere, but the ordering experience is the main reason I'm giving it 3 stars.

I tried many items on the menu before, including latte, matcha beverages, coconut matcha beverage when it existed, Vietnamese coffee, teas, all types pate chaud, buttered croissants, other banh mi sandwiches, etc. Convenience is key. Some of the matcha beverages with fruits is too sweet for my tastebuds though. It feels like they're focused on food/beverage quality nowadays. Wait times can still be longer than expected at times, but the last few employees I came across were actually more productive with better training. It can turn out to be a hit or miss experience at times. Environment is decent and modern with good upkeep. It's pretty comfortable inside when there are lesser crowds and long lines for sure.
