The coffee and sweetness balance gives it a refreshing taste and does not leave that bitterness of coffee in your tongue. You can tell their coffee is legit. Our 7 year old daughter got to try the banana matcha for the first time and a LOVED it. Trust when I say I rarely do any reviews on here but this place definitely calls for a recommendation to try! The vibes at this place is a good place to chill with friends or get some study/work time in. It's a simple and elegant atmosphere to just have some peaceful coffee time. Thank you for the great service Phedi coffee!

It sounds like an unusual combination, but the creamy avocado and sweet mango work surprisingly well together. Rich, refreshing, and basically dessert in a cup. The menu is huge, but it's hard to go wrong. The fruit teas are refreshing, the milk teas are smooth, and the toppings always taste fresh. Portions are generous and the drinks look just as good as they taste. Parking can get a little hectic depending on the time of day, but it's worth the stop if you're in the area and need a boba fix.

Honestly, my friends and I always preferred the quality of the milk teas at this location anywho. Fantasia looks exactly the same as I remember it from years ago. Clean, large menu, and lots of seating. I usually prefer the jasmine milk tea at Fantasia, but this time around I ordered their oolong milk tea. The staff was nice and my drink was ready right away. The lack of wait is probably because it was so empty inside. I encourage more people to go to Fantasia since they serve classic milk tea that always hits the spot!

I can't imagine if people asked for regular ice, it would be 5 sips maximum. This is the typical Vietnamese style cafe where if you want no ice, they fill your drink less and if you ask for less ice, it's pretty much 90% ice. They have samples you can taste on the table which is really neat as it gives you a perspective on many flavors you have not yet tried. Side note, the fish tanks had fully green water. Not strong algae but just a deep green water like you see at Lake Cunningham. It was a bit unappetizing to look at. Water changes need to be changed for the sake of the fishes.

RANG Final…read moreThoughts: 4.50/5 Review for Rang. They have weekly matcha pop ups at Rose Tea Lounge. Original location is in Elk Grove, but they are here in San Jose area. Kind of hard to see and find them? given that there aren't really any signs posted outside. I perhaps wouldn't have known about it if my friend didn't tell me about it. Drink: Guava Matcha Einspanner: 4.5/5 This is their matcha with house-made guava puree at the bottom and topped with silky guava foam. Their foam is so nice and creamy. Felt very light and just thick enough. Silky consistency that mixed well with the drink. My friend noted that they make it fairly sweet, so I opted for the 25%. This was still quite sweet for me. Each component is sweet itself, so when you combine it, its mostly just sweet. No tartness to cut any of it. Perhaps the guava has something to do with that. Guava is a sweet fruit in general, so I seemed to expect as much. The matcha itself had a nice color to it. Very vibrant. Light bitterness. Lovely consistency overall. I like each component separately and I like them together when it's fully combined. Strawberry Matcha Einspanner: 4.5/5 This was my friends drink and I also really liked it. Had to try it for my review purposes. Per their Door Dash description, this is their matcha latte with their home-made strawberry puree and topped with velvety strawberry foam. There really wasn't much of a difference with this one and mine besides the fruit. His was slightly more tart than mine, which is something I like. Again, the drink itself leans more on the sweet side, so any sort of tartness would be nice to cut some of that. Matcha color is amazing. Nice and vibrant. Lovely silky consistency. I like the ratio of fruit flavor and matcha. Some places will make it just taste like milk, others have an imbalance of flavors. This one was just right for me. --------- Quality: Ceremonial Matcha and whisked to order We saw them whisk the matcha to order. Not really a display cooking kind of counter, but they do do all of that in the front where the cashiers are. You are able to watch if you so choose. I do like the matcha that they use, so it seems like a high quality one. That or it's because they aren't batching their matcha like other places. I understand that batching doesn't make it lower quality, but something about whisking it fresh is always better. Price: Average Will depend on the drink, but the prices are around $7 to $9. For our drinks, average around $8.25 per drink. Quite a common price range for a cup of matcha. This one was made well, so no complaints here. There was no upcharge for the oatmilk, which is always a plus for us. Service: Whisked matcha fresh No interactions today. We ordered directly on the kiosk and then just waited for our drinks to come out. Something that I like is that they whisk and make the matcha in front of us. Kind of hard to see, given my height and spot that we were standing, but they do whisk it in the front for us. Of note, they use this hand towel or cloth to wipe the bowls. Not sure how sanitation does with that, but I digress. Just an observation for today. Ambiance: Quaint Flower Café Vibes This place is giving very quaint flower café vibes. I would totally work here if I could work from home or if I needed to study. Space is incredibly spacious on the inside contrary to how the outside and plaza area is looking. Little dim lit inside, but that might be from the little lighting that's hitting through the windows given the angle and evening sun. Location/Parking: Small Plaza This place is like a pop-up/collaboration with Rose Tea Lounge. There's really no label for it outside of the storefront, but when you go into the café and on the kiosk, you can directly order from them. Kind of interesting how it works and I probably would have never seen it if my friend didn't bring me here. Location is not the best as it is right in a smaller plaza on the side of Story Road near the 101 freeway. At least they chose an area that is slightly less saturated. Vietnam Town is really close by and they really do have too much going on over there sometimes. Parking lot is also small, but it seems to work well with the smaller plaza size.

What I can't say is that this place is consistent. The actual boba is always perfectly soft and chewy. But the make-up of my Matcha Smoothie, which I always get, is often all over the place. Today, it was PERFECT. But even when it isn't, it's still really good. Sometimes the sugar level is off (I like 25%); it's often too low or too high. Sometimes the matcha level is off; or the milk level. I'm not sure why it differs so much. But I always come back. It's like gambling for that high lol. They get it right about 75% of the time. Between the years of 23'-25', it was really off. I ended up moving away so it wasn't a huge deal. But it got to the point where I avoided ordering my usual whenever I was in town. To circumvent disappointment, I would order the other tasty matcha offerings; like the Matcha banana or the Matcha strawberry. They aren't as satisfying for me, but they hit the spot-- more winter-friendly anyway. Thanks to those years, I tried other items that I normally wouldn't, and found them incredibly tasty and well-balanced. As of now, I still love this place. And I wish more people knew about it. I might have mentioned a lot negatives, but even at their worst, their drinks are still better than most places. Summer is very crushable with their splendid offerings. Thank you for existing
