Food 9/10 water chestnut che is really good - 0% sugar is still sweet enough! Love the matchas and lychee rose tea! Service 10/10 quick service Ambiance 5/10 decent seating available but music is extremely loud - unnecessarily loud
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.
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!
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?
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
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.
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!
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!
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!!
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.
I really wanted to love this spot more, especially since you can see that each matcha drink is hand-whisked with so much care. It is clear they prioritize quality in their preparation, but unfortunately, the drinks themselves did not quite deliver for me. I tried the Banana Matcha and the Pandan Matcha to get a feel for their specialty options. Both drinks had a beautiful, vibrant green color that looked very promising, but the flavors did not quite live up to the aesthetic. The Banana Matcha tasted a bit watered down and lacked that rich, earthy matcha taste I look for. The Pandan Matcha was a bit more balanced in terms of flavor, but the overall texture of both drinks felt a bit off. While I appreciate the craftsmanship and the visual appeal of the drinks, the flavor profile just was not quite there this time. It's a nice spot overall, but I would love to see a bit more richness in the lattes to match the quality of the whisking.

Byyyyy far my fav matcha fix... anytime I am in the area I make sure to make a stop. They prepare their matcha the traditional way and the banana cream is so good. I've noticed w/ some other matcha places their banana cream has a super artificial taste which becomes overwhelming at times. However Aroma's matcha is perfect each time :) I haven't gone in about a month or so since it's about a 45 min drive from me....would love to know if they have online ordering to order ahead. I definitely want to try the other matchas and drinks they offer. read more

There's a lot of spots in San Jose that have matcha but Aroma is my go-to spot time and time again. Every single one of the drinks I've gotten here are high quality and worth every penny. But the banana matcha is hands down my favorite in all of San Jose! Although I mainly go to Aroma for their matcha drinks, you should also check out some of their other items like their Vietnamese dessert drinks. Sometimes there can be a long line to order on the weekends, but it usually moves pretty fast. And be patient when you wait for your drink cause the staff are working really hard to make each drink taste perfectly. Despite how busy they can get, the staff are always welcoming, efficient, and helpful. There's a few tables available for you to sit at but it's a small shop so it can feel claustrophobic when it's busy. I would only suggest sitting and enjoying your drink during non-peak days. Parking in this plaza can be a nightmare during peak hours so sometimes it's best to park a little further away and walk, or you could even park on the street or in the Target plaza next door and walk over. read more

This was my first time there and I tried the new seasonal Mango Sticky Rice matcha, which was really good. I liked how the mango wasn't pulpy and the whole drink was smooth. The employee taking my order was very friendly. I went on a Sunday afternoon and it took less than 10 min to get my drink. Not many places to sit inside. Lots of parking. Would recommend. read more
I love this place! I had it for the first time when my friend catered Aroma & had che and halo halo for her wedding. It was so yummy! I mainly go here for their matcha This plaza is always busy so I park across the street and walk over. Aroma has good amount of seating inside and outside. Ordering is quite easy on the kiosk and the wait is kinda long but definitely worth it! I loved their double matcha but they changed the menu. I recommend the cookie butter matcha and the pandan dream matcha. My friend got the corn cloud matcha which had good corn flavor but it was still super sweet even thought she got less sweet. read more

If you're looking for a fun café to treat yourself, Aroma in the Silver Creek plaza is a great pick. Though there's not much sitting inside, the space is spacious and people typically order from a kiosk. I find that there are older customers who come here and don't know how to use the machine so I did help a lady out, maybe to always have a cashier in the front would be very ideal. I tried their cookie butter matcha and banana matcha from the matcha series and it was delicious -- the banana flavour came through naturally and the cookie butter was so tasty, I've never tried anything like that before! The matcha was well-balanced, and with my preference of "less sweet / less ice" it hit just right. FYI The only thing is the place might be hard to find since you can't really see the name until you go into the store and the parking in this plaza is horrendous! read more
This is by far one of the best drink dessert shops in San Jose that I have had. My best friends wanted to show me this place and this place did NOT disappoint. I got the chance to talk to one of the owners, Richard. He was such a very caring and enthusiastic person. A lot of other shops feel like they don't add care and love into drinks but on the other hand Richard took great care of us and even recommended/gave us phenomenal drinks. Each drink we ordered tasted FANTASTIC. I really think it beats all the other milk tea/matcha places around where I'm from. I'll definitely stop by Aroma again if I'm craving a sweet treat and am in the San Jose area. A big shoutout to Richard and his Aroma team for taking great care of us. read more
Really good matcha! My friend and I ordered the banana and pandan cream matchas and we loved them! There is going to be a little bit of a wait because this place is super popular right now but if you're looking for a good matcha drink or any Viet drink then aroma will definitely have it! read more

The matcha here is so strong and such good quality! They don't skimp on the matcha powder. I got a pandan matcha with less sweet and less ice and it was so flavorful. I definitely want to try their banana cream matcha in the future. Wait can be a little long on the weekend, I think it was at least 20 minutes after I got in line til I got my order. Not too much seating inside especially when it's busy and crowded. read more
My GPS always takes me to the wrong place with any of these shops in this plaza. I did end up finding it after making several circles. I got lucky enough that the shop still had not opened. Waited a couple minutes and used the kiosk to order my drink. Wasn't sure what Matcha to get but opted for the banana matcha. Since all the matcha is hand whisked it took a bit to get my drink. Once I got it the flavor of both the matcha and banana was delicious. The banana flavor was not artificial which was a plus in my book. I enjoyed the drink and will come back and have it again. The parking lot in this plaza is always busy so keep that in mind. If you're ordering matcha it's hand whisked so it takes time to get your drink. The shop has several tables to enjoy your drink. It got really busy at opening. Bathroom was locked so I wasn't able to use it. All in all a cool space. Curious to try their other drinks. read more
As a Vietnamese girly from Orange County, I always miss home since I moved to the Bay. San Jose, specifically the Little Saigon area, gives me a little piece of community not too far from me. The desserts sold here remind me of treats from my childhood and I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place after dinner at Thien Long restaurant in the same plaza (really good Ca Thang Long or fried turmeric fish with dill spring rolls) A plus is that you can call in to order ahead or order on the kiosk. I'd recommend that if you're on a time crunch because this plaza is pretty busy and there may be a wait. Their Bơ dầm or smashed avocado dessert is yummy and the only thing I've gotten so far. It has a bunch of different jelly or tapioca toppings and I prefer it to Bambu's version. I'll have to come back soon and try the banana matcha or other drinks! read more

I've visited Aroma several times over the past year and have definitely noticed how much their popularity has grown. With the recent launch of their new matcha series, wait times have jumped to anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. I've tried a bunch of their drinks: Bo Dam - love the pandan jelly and other toppings in it. I like my bo dam a bit thicker but it was still good. Banana Matcha - real banana cream and strong matcha! my fav here and a popular drink among many. Pandan Dream - loved that the pandan flavor was strong. can overpower the matcha a bit (would suggest not mixing the cream and just sipping) Corn Milk - a bit sweet so get less sweet! love that the corn flavor is strong. Pandan Milk Tea - pandan flavor is there but it was too sweet. would not get this again. I've also noticed some customers being rude to the staff. Each matcha drink is hand-whisked, so the wait can be a bit longer. Be prepared for longer wait times, especially since the shop gets crowded quickly. I think it would be great if they introduced a text notification system for when orders are ready since there is limited indoor seating. Overall, great drinks and service! read more
Good hojicha and decent matcha. We visited on a weekend afternoon, and there was a bit of a wait to order and receive our drinks. You can order with a cashier or use a self-order kiosk. I also appreciate that you can adjust your drinks to your liking, like any boba shop. Limited seating inside, and large parking lot outside. I enjoyed my hojicha -- it wasn't too sweet and had a good hojicha flavor, but I prefer mine to be a bit stronger. The banana matcha was very creamy and slightly overpowered the matcha. I would definitely come back to give this spot another try. read more

Banana Matcha? Yes, please! This spot is known for their banana matcha and other amazing drinks. I was craving matcha, so I decided to visit for the first time. There was a long line, so I knew it must be really good. However, when I finally got my banana matcha, it was just okay. I don't quite understand the hype; it tasted like a banana-flavored matcha--nothing special. But I enjoyed it and would definitely try it again. My mom ordered the mixed bean boba, and she loved it. It reminded her of halo halo. My friend, who has been here multiple times, tried the mango sticky rice matcha and said it was superior. I definitely need to try that next time! The service is okay, but the music was so loud that I could barely hear the worker. When he called out for the next person in line, I wasn't sure if he was calling other people's orders or just the next person. The guy behind me asked me if I was next, and when I asked what the worker had said, he seemed a bit annoyed, responding that the worker said "next in line." I honestly thought they were calling names. There was no need for his rudeness, especially since the music was so loud and the worker's voice was soft. Despite these little mishaps, I will definitely return. If you love matcha, this spot is for you! read more

Food: I tried the mango sticky rice matcha drink, the double matcha, and the banana matcha. All of them had a nice, natural taste, I really liked that none of the flavors came off as artificial or overly sweet. Ambiance: The vibe was fine overall, nothing fancy, but a decent spot to hang out for a bit. It wasn't the cleanest space, but it got the job done for a quick stop. Service: Ordering through the kiosk made everything quick and easy, so I didn't interact much with staff. The drinks came out fast, which was convenient. read more
Finally got to check Aroma out for their banana matcha! U can order in doordash as well which i think can contribute to the longer wait time in store but i guess it has its pros and cons since maybe less crowd if ordering from home. We waiting maybe 20 mins Sat morning ordering at 10:30am. The banana cream has great flavor, it doesnt look like alot on top but it is enough to sweeten the whole drink! The only bad thing was alot of ice! Even when selecting "less ice". But for $7.50 the taste and flavor can't be beat. But im not sure since so much competition Izumi and Academic r still up there for me. read more
Aroma is located in a busy area, so parking is a bit hard but luckily not too crowded on the weekend between lunch and dinner time. While there were many people waiting for their drinks, the ordering line with the cashier and self-service was super short. While the cashier seemed newer, she was friendly and answered my questions about the drinks perfectly. I tried their Pandan Milk Tea with boba and less sugar. While I thought my order would take forever as I saw 20+ people waiting around, it came out quick in around 10-15 minutes, just as they stated. While my friend believed that the pandan taste was overpowering, I truly loved it and found it to be the right level of sweetness. The boba was also chewy and mixed well with the creaminess of the drink. Love their menu options and unique flavors; I'm curious about their Xi Muoi Tea. Overall a tasty experience! read more
I've been to Aroma a handful of times now and have tried a few of their drinks. The shop is small and cute with limited seating. Theres also a self kiosk, although it glitches and slows down occasionally. The staff is also very nice! On my first visit, I tried the pandan milk tea and durian milk tea. Both were abit underwhelming and could have used more flavor. But I decided to give Aroma another try and ordered the banana matcha, and I'm so glad I did. Their matcha is definitely one of the better ones I've had, and I really enjoyed it at 50% sweetness. They've recently added more matcha drinks to the menu, and I gave the mango stick rice matcha a try. It was good, but I still prefer the banana matcha! It's so yummy :) I'll definitely be coming back for that, and I want to try the pandan matcha next. read more
Loving their new Matcha Series here! Did a group order of the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha, Coconut Matcha, Strawberry Matcha and Double Matcha Lattes. The shop was empty upon entering and ordered quickly from the kiosk, which was easy to navigate. The drinks came out quickly and well packed for easy travel. The Coconut Matcha was refreshing, not too sweet (ordered less sweet) and good matcha flavor. My coworkers enjoyed their drinks as well with the normal sweetness level. Though one did mention that the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha tasted mostly of mango and matcha, not so much the sweet rice taste. Good portion drink and the price point is average! Most matcha lattes range from $6.50-$8.50. My total for $4 drinks was $33. Oat milk sub is 50 cents. Parking in this plaza can be a bit of a nightmare, if busy I recommend street parking. Definitely will be back to try more of their Matcha Series! read more

I think i've been to Aroma quite a few times already. service has always been really good but drinks in my opinion don't really live up to my standards. i like how many unique matcha drinks they have but the matcha somehow always tastes a bit grainy. and the drink is too sweet for my liking despite me adjusting my sweetness level. read more

Aroma is WORTH the hype! I went on a Friday afternoon and it was BUSYYYY. But I didn't have to wait too long for my drinks. We got the Pandan Dream and Banana Creme Matcha. The cream for both were absolutely delicious. There is still a decent matcha taste. The worker there was also super friendly and apologetic about the wait. There's a 4% discount if you pay with cash instead of card. Definitely coming back to try their other drinks! read more

Rating solely on the matcha here, it's pretty solid! I tried three matchas: strawberry, banana, and matcha lover. Strawberry was sweetest, then banana, then matcha lover (but I did get matcha lover at the less sweet option). The matcha here is really creamy, smooth, nutty, but otherwise neutral. Wasn't that flavorful. I think the banana matcha was standout for the banana flavor, as it did not disappear once mixed into the drink. Same goes for the strawberry, but it was definitely more syrup-y. Biggest complaint about ALL three drinks is that there is way too much ice!! By the end of the drink it was so watery and flavorless. The inside is pretty small with some seating. We came about 10 minutes before closing (sorry) yet they were still able to accommodate. The drinks took around 5-10 minutes to come out. It was still packed even though they were almost closed! read more
I've been here a handful of times and I've noticed it's gotten more popular over time. Located in the busy plaza in silver creek close by another popular matcha spot (Izumi). I usually go for the banana matcha which hits the spot everytime. A bit of the stronger side but they have the option to sweeten with syrup or honey. Milk options are whole, soy or oat. I so wish they had almond but more options than some places do. You can order with the cashier or if they're busy you can order on the tablet which I usually do. They seem to only have 1-2 workers whenever I go but the wait is usually between 10-20 minutes. Workers are friendly and the place itself is clean with a decent amount of places to sit. Not necessarily a place you'd go to get work done. I tried the mango sticky rice matcha. I've tried mango sticky rice so I thought I'd like this drink but it wasn't for me. Texture was different and I was expecting more of a sweet taste. They have a decent amount of drinks to choose from. For me, I think I'll stick with the banana matcha read more

After seeing Aroma everywhere on social media, I definitely had to give it a try. Both the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha and Banana Cream Matcha were good! I'd give them both 4/5, and if I return, I'd get the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha again. The banana cream is standard good, and the matcha was of great quality compared to other stores in the South Bay. I wish there was a bit more banana cream, it took a few mixes/a couple more tries for the drink to get better. My friend and I went on a Sunday and it was PACKED. The line was out the door, but we got our drinks within 15 min. There isn't a lot of seating, so you may have to wait outside. The AC wasn't blasting either, so just a warning that it'll be a bit hot with so many people in the store. While it is located in a plaza, the plaza gets really busy on weekends especially - so it might take you a few extra minutes to find parking. Overall, if I'm in the area again next time, I'd definitely come again! read more

Hi Nadia,…

I love Aroma Che's matcha series! I've tried a good variety of Aroma's drinks including their Pandan Coffee, Pandan Milk Tea, Banana Matcha, Mango Sticky Rice Matcha, Cookie Butter Matcha, and Pandan Matcha, which were all great, and drinks I would recommend! Their matcha cream tops are delicious and worth the hype they are praised for, and their matcha itself is decent as well. Their pandan drinks are very fragrant and have a good balanced pandan flavor. The ordering process is on their kiosk and the drinks usually come out in around 10 minutes. The store itself is bright with a few small tables you can sit at. It's definitely more of a grab-n-go kind of cafe in my opinion since seating is limited. Overall, fire spot for matcha and pandan drinks that I love taking my friends to! read more
I came to Aroma after seeing it all over my social media feed and finally decided to check it out. I got the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha, and I've never had anything like it before. It was super unique and actually really good! The mix of flavors was different in the best way. It was really busy when I went, because of how popular it's gotten online. The parking lot isn't great, pretty small and packed, but honestly, I didn't mind the wait because I knew what I was getting myself into, and I was with my girls on a matcha date. Even though the drink took about 30-45 minutes, the workers were super sweet and kept apologizing for the delay. You could tell they were doing their best with the crowd and still being friendly. All in all, I'd definitely come back to try more drinks, maybe when it's a little less packed. The drinks are creative, and the whole experience was fun! read more

I visited Aroma when the banana matcha was first released and I was pleasantly surprised as to how strong the banana was! The consistency was thick but not too thick that it had a hard time mixing with the matcha. Personally, I usually like a stronger matcha taste, but I didn't feel like the banana was overpowering. Rather it seem like the ratio of banana to matcha was good. I came back yesterday with my friends to try their new matcha series! I'm glad to see the creative twists on matcha. The series offered banana matcha, strawberry matcha, pandan dream (pandan matcha), and double matcha latte. I decided to go with the pandan dream and it was solid! Pandan was strong but not overpowering and I liked how there only a small amount of coconut shavings. I tried my friends' drinks (strawberry matcha & pandan milk tea) and I really liked it! Will be back to try their other drinks! As for service, it was pretty crowded, but the team is very efficient and friendly! On a Sunday afternoon, I waited only 15-20 minutes total despite the crowd. The line looks long, but it's the space of the shop so don't let that turn you away. Ordering was super quick and I also appreciate how the owner has checked in on thoughts of the drinks with the customers. I saw him working but also checking in with people to see if there was anything they needed to make their drink better! Note: I order my drinks with less sweet, less ice, and oat milk! read more
Came on a Sunday evening, pretty long line for the self ordering but no wait if you order at the cashier (I would order at the cashier if you know what you want, it will be quicker) Ordered a banana cream matcha with less sugar and ice: the banana cream had vanilla crumble and banana chips, very flavorful, if you like bananas, this drink is for you. I prefer my drinks a little less sweet so getting less sweet was perfect. Matcha wasn't too strong so you can still taste the banana cream, very unique drink 9/10 Inside is pretty small but there are some tables/chairs, so you can hang out after getting your drinks Would definitely come back! read more
Believe in treat yo self?! I do! Always! This place was POPPING on a Sunday evening at 8pm!! Puns intended. Like ultra busy! Service was very friendly :) and the wait wasn't terribly long as reflected in other reviews. Ambiance of the Cafe is very busy, but it's cute modern with their white marble walls.I tried the Coconut cloud matcha with honey and brown sugar boba (less sweet, regular ice). I tasted more matcha than coconut but the ceremonial matcha is yummy. I don't like giving less stars but for about 9 dollars with tax and tip I wanted more coconut taste. I'll try it again sometime, maybe the calamansi juice. My BFF got a lychee black tea with boba. He doesn't like the lids as they are too big but he enjoyed the refreshing flavor with less sugar and no milk. read more
I've been seeing this place on FYP so I decided to go because I was already in San Jose. I'm a feen for some good matcha and their unique menu caught my eye. I went late Monday afternoon. Despite plenty of people waiting for drinks, the line moved quickly and I was helped by the cashier in the front. I bought 2 drinks, the pandan and the mango sticky rice matcha with oat milk. I was afraid of getting it 100% sweet because some places make it unbearably sweet but I was pleasantly surprised. Pandan matcha: 8.5/10 I rarely drink pandan but it complemented the matcha so well! The matcha was already sweetened with the pandan milk, I didn't need to mix in the cream. The combination was so perfect that honestly it doesn't need the cream top. Mango sticky rice: 6.5/10 This is not something to write home about but the cream on the top is very flavorful. The matcha is unsweetened and tastes a little grassy and bitter, so I suggest trying to mix everything together. If you don't like sweets, I definitely recommend this! Pleasantly surprised and because this place is a small business I give it 4.5 stars. If I'm ever in the area, I will be stopping by :) read more
I would highly recommend you order ahead. The line is long and you will wait. I ordered on DoorDash 10-15 mins prior and still waited. The parking lot is always packed. The hype is definitely real and worth it. I ordered the regular iced matcha latte, and it was pretty good. Wasn't too sweet and didn't have a bitter matcha taste. It was very good. The inside is small and modern. Get crowded inside due to the people waiting for your drinks and also ordering on the self kiosk. Overall, I give this place a solid 4/5 star review. The matcha drinks are pretty good. Just be prepared to find parking and wait a bit for your drinks! read more

Went in for pickup and staff were friendly and had our drinks ready in a cool place so it wouldn't melt. I thought that was fantastic service. The drinks were good, not my favorite banana cream recipe in the bay area, but pretty good! Matcha tasted rich and flavorful. Overall a great experience. read more

Stopped by Aroma for a little sweet treat. I ordered the Banana Cream Matcha, Pandan Dream Matcha, and Xi Muoi Tea. The drinks were aesthetically pleasing and on the more vibrant side. However, the wait time was noticeably long, even though the place wasn't overwhelmingly packed. It took a while for our drinks to come out, so patience is definitely required here. Flavor-wise, the matcha drinks leaned heavily on the milkier side, which some may enjoy, but if you're expecting a strong, earthy, traditional matcha taste, this isn't quite it. That said, the cream/foam topping was delicious and added a nice richness and texture to each sip. The Xi Muoi Tea was refreshing with a tart-salty kick -- definitely a good balance if you're looking for something different. Prices are average for specialty drinks, and they gave a small cash discount, which is always appreciated. Overall, a decent spot for a sweet and creamy take on matcha, but be ready for a wait and a less traditional flavor profile. read more
This spot has become one of my favorite locations for drinks! Their drinks and desserts are inspired by Asian/Vietnamese flavors, and they've recently added some matcha drinks to their menu. I recently tried their new drinks: Banana Matcha Latte & Corn Latte. Both were super delicious and not too sweet (the best complement to receive). I can taste the ceremonial grade matcha in the matcha latte, which I appreciate given the shortage. We also ordered the Pandan Milk Tea -- good floral tea flavors that complements the pandan flavor really well. They really nailed it with this one... but the Corn Latte has got to be my favorite from the three! The owner, Richard, was really helpful with walking us through the menu and answering any questions we had. Overall, A+ customer service and delicious drinks. Will definitely be back!! read more
