    Aroma Tea House is as good as any other milk tea boba place. It's pretty good, but nothing special at the same time. However, they were busier than the other places in the area and popularity is a good indicator. Ordering at the kiosk is efficient; just place your order and wait. Prices seem cheap at first, until you decide to get the add-ons. I do wish they had one more level of sweetness control, as this options felt limited. My drink choice was the standard milk tea, which is what I always get on my first visit to a new spot. If you are looking for a quick and straightforward boba stop, it is fine to grab a drink here, but it isn't necessarily a standout destination.

    Banana matcha / mango sticky rice matcha
    Lisa N.

    It's not bad! The banana matcha was subtle though. I also ordered the mango sticky rice matcha and it really didn't taste nothing like a mango sticky rice matcha lol. 1 small kiosk by the door. It was kinda confusing because the place itself is kinda small so it was hard to tell where to order. Apparently, you can just walk up to the counter and order as well. Service wasn't so bad. Lots of drink options here. Competition with Izumi Matcha. I'm going to be honest, I originally wanted Izumi Matcha but it was closed yesterday. I went here as a backup choice. I probably would come try some of their other matcha drinks. All in all, not bad but nothing too memorable. Maybe I ordered the wrong drink? What would you recommend?

    fall matcha menu
    Elaina V.

    Came to try out the fall matcha menu and it was great! I tried the pumpkin matcha and the cookie butter matcha, you can't go wrong with either! They both had a good sweetness to them. The pumpkin matcha tasted like a spiced pumpkin pie and the cookie butter matcha was yummy! Drinks took around 10 minutes to come out, but it's understandable since they're all hand whisked. There's seating inside and outside and staff was very nice!

    Aroma Che, coffee and tea- 3005 Silver Creek Rd Aroma Che is one of my kids' favorite Viet desserts spots in San Jose! Their go-to drink the Che Ba Mau, and it never disappoints. Ordering is easy with either the self-service kiosk or a cashier, and they accept both credit cards and cash. Service is quick and efficient, making it the perfect place to grab a drink on the go. Nice and clean seating area. If you're craving a refreshing Viet dessert drinks without a long wait, this is a great choice. Our family definitely recommends Aroma Che, Coffee and Tea for a quick and delicious dessert stop!

    Avocado
    Cindy T.

    The avocado drink is so good! Perfect amount of sweetness and the jellies in the drink add a great texture. I also loved the shaved ice. It made it easier to eat. Recommend using a spoon first then a straw. Best one I've had compared to other places, definitely recommend trying this drink! Looking forward to trying their other drinks

    guava li hing matcha
    Katie L.

    Went back for my go to drink, it goes bad after the first two hours and separates so you have to drink it fast. It's around $8 to add boba and no other adjustments which is average to higher end pricing for matcha. The employees were really friendly

    Aroma has a lot of fun matcha drinks on their menu! We tried the mango sticky rice matcha and the banana cream matcha. The cream top on the mango sticky rice matcha was so good and less sweet was the perfect amount. They also have matcha drinks with tea bases like oolong and jasmine. There was only one kiosk so I'm not sure how backed up it gets. Luckily it wasn't busy when we stopped by but it's located in a very hectic plaza!

    pandan matcha
    Rebecca B.

    Love the unique flavors Aroma offers. Ordering at a kiosk and picking up at the front cashier within just 10 minutes amidst heavy foot traffic. First time around, I went ahead and ordered their pandan matcha. Yum! This masterpiece is served with pandan cold foam and toasted coconut flakes. Ordered it regular sweet, less ice, with oat milk. Very balanced flavor. Loved it. Would definitely try their other flavor offerings. :)

    house cream matcha double matcha get it and sit down. this place and lacaphe are my top picks in sj!!

    Double matcha...not good at all

    Their double matcha is not good at all. Barely taste any matcha. The drink has 60% of ice, 10% of matcha, the rest is all cream. I barely taste any matcha and this drink is not cheap. $8. Not recommended.

    Disappointing strawberry matcha
    Bridget W.

    Sadly, Aroma didn't deliver. What I wanted - and braved the long line for - was a Banana Matcha. I'd heard good things and as a matcha lover I went out of my way to come here for it. When I tried to make it dairy free things went left. I asked for oat milk, which they carry, but was told they couldn't do it because they premake the banana mixture with regular milk. They told me it was just bananas and milk, so naturally I asked if they couldn't just swap the milk? The two counter employees tell me nope, that would be "too difficult" for them. Translation = lazy. So I ordered an oatmilk strawberry matcha instead, which took longer to get than my food order next door. The matcha tasted incredibly watered down and was disappointing. Had I not waited so long to get the drink I would have had them remake it, but I wasn't about to spend half my day here. Definitely wouldn't return.

    Egg Coffee is pretty good -- not overly bitter. It's strong, but not too strong. The mango sticky rice matcha is good too, though the flavor is pretty subtle. I wish the mango sticky rice flavor came through a bit more, since you only really taste hints of the coconut and mango toward the end.

    Tiffany N.

    Just go here for the matchas, che, and the mango yogurt drink. The mango yogurt was no joke my hyperfixation drink for 2 weeks. Again so glad that I gave this place another chance.

I came around 6:50PM on a Saturday and there was a small line for the order kiosk. After I ordered, there were a limited number of seats since people tend to hangout in friend groups and treat it as their 3rd space, so be prepared to fight for a table if you're coming during peak times. I sat down and realized they were a whole 10+ orders behind, meaning I waited at least 25mins before getting my bingsu! I ordered a honeydew yogurt bingsu and it was $20. Inflation may be a little crazy, but this was a little above what I was expecting. It came with about 1/2's worth of honeydew. The bowl was not topped with bingsu, and I felt like there are more melons than bingsu (not ok). There were some sweet cheese pieces inside (yummy), some unsweetened frozen yogurt, and the rest was yogurt flavored bingsu. Although healthy, the bingsu itself was NOT sweet enough and I felt sick after eating so much unsweetened yogurt. I wish they gave us a cup of condensed milk like they do at every other bingsu place... Service was slow and everything is self serve, from getting your bingsu at the front to bussing your tray. I do believe there are other bingsu spots in Bay Area that give a similar experience with more variety and better pricing. I do not look forward to waiting almost 30min after spending $20 for a bingsu that's only half bingsu with honeydew layered on top.

You order at a kiosk and wait for your name to be called, then pick up your drinks at the counter. There are some benches outside in this plaza, so if you want to sit, you can. Their matcha is exceptional, and although the line can get very long, they are so efficient that your drinks are ready in no time. I'd say the longest part of the process is waiting for someone to place their order at the kiosk. As a vegan, I stick to the fruit teas like Strawberry Yuzu Matcha Tea, Red Dragon Refresher, Lychee Matcha Tea, and Yuzu Matcha Tea. However, prior to becoming vegan 3-ish years ago, I did try the Crème Brûlée Matcha and Okinawa Hojicha Latte. Each drink is delicious in its own way, and I love that the matcha shines regardless of the flavor you choose. During my recent visit, I had the Strawberry Yuzu Matcha. The screen suggested keeping it as is instead of choosing "less sweet," so I stuck with the original. I liked it, but next time I'll definitely go with less sweet. It wasn't a sugar bomb, but it was a bit sweeter than I prefer.

It was refreshing to enjoy a cake that wasn't overwhelmingly sugary and let the quality of the ingredients shine. This was my husband's very first crepe cake, and he absolutely loved it. In fact, our entire family enjoyed every bite. If you're looking for a dessert that's elegant, fresh, and not overly sweet, I highly recommend this one. We'll definitely be back to try more flavors, I'm especially excited to try the Black Sesame Crepe Cake next!
