    It's even better than all 5-star the reviews would have you believe! The two soups on the menu are so drastically different, and both explosively flavorful. The clear broth soup is loaded with various meats you'll often find in Vietnamese cuisine's comparable pho, and would warm even the coldest of hearts. It's giving grandma's heirloom recipe. The red-brothed kaw kho could raise the dead: sweet, mildly spicy, thick and hearty deliciousness with generous chunks of marinated beef. To boot, each is less than $15, and could probably make for 2 meals unless you're insatiably hungry like I was. Oh, and pause for the boba too, which is also easily top 3 in Salt Lake. Without shame, I'll admit that I LOVE the strawberry matcha. This place was already a serious contender, but with their newly expanded food menu, it's a must-go. We love a woman-owned local business serving up serious flavor.

    Spam mastubi

    I had been wanting to try this boba shop and I'm glad I did. Upon walking in the shop, there is a display of different delights to choose from. I opted for the teriyaki spam musubi. It was nice and warm and delicious! They also had the other things to choose from. I opted for the strawberry slush with lychee jelly. It comes with the coconut milk and it is so good! The crab wontons were my least favorite. The sauce that it came with was a little too watery and they were a little cold inside. I did however still enjoy everything else! The prices are very reasonable and some of the best I've seen for Boba. This will definitely be my go to spot.

    For people that like quick reviews: This place was actually a surprise, it is definitely pricy but I'd say it's worth a try. The spicy chicken sandwich takes me back to when I was in Korea and was awesome, I just don't know how often I'd pay for a $15 sandwich with $5 fries. For people that like something more in depth: This is a location that is on the edge of west valley a couple of blocks away from valley fair mall. It's one of many Asian themed stores in the area. As for the building itself the inside was very cute and relaxed. The girl who served me was super nice and quick to give recommendations. With my chicken sandwich coming out pretty quickly(I think the actual name is BFC Sando or something similar). The sandwich was actually really good, as someone who spent 3 months in South Korea, this was pretty close to the kind of food that I got to eat over there, the breading and the chicken were on point and it had just enough spice to be spicy but not overwhelm the sandwich. All in all this would be a place I'd be happy to visit if I were in the area, and I'd recommend people that already are nearby to visit. But I probably wouldn't go out of my way to stop by.

    I was really disappointed with the avocado smoothie. It doesn't seem like they use real avocado. there was absolutely no avocado flavor. Instead, it tasted like sipping a sweet, sugary drink with no real flavor at all.

    Came here for a boba and they didn't disappoint. I can't recall the four drinks we all ordered but each one's flavor was on point. The counter staff was helpful and patient as we took our order. They also all smile alot and you can feel the good energy coming from them. They have a small sitting area but it was comfortable for our party of 6 to hangout and just talk. We stayed for an hour and a half just socializing with friends and even though they were closing they never told us to leave . We just chose to. I highly recommend this place for their drinks, their service and the chill spot to hangout.

Lots of parking , great fast service and friendly folks, nice seating area . We'll be back to try their crispy chicken sandwich and other items!

    Okay, y'all! Here is an update since my last post. Backstreet decided to bring in Kuy Theav aka Khmer Pho! If you guys haven't tried it, you need to! Now, you can drink boba and eat some tasty food! Especially during this season, it is the best time to get a new taste in SLC! And my new go to drink is their lemon ginger black ice tea! Check them out! You won't be disappointed.

    The fried wings here are delicious! We love the Chinese dry rub spicy and Korean spicy! They also offer onigri and I love the spicy tuna! And with every order will always be the delicious sweet potato fries with extra yum yum sauce! I love that they offer food options with their refreshing boba! It's a great place to grab a snack and a drink! Highly recommend their Thai tea and lychee fruit juice with lychee jelly. The workers are very friendly and helpful if you have any questions regarding the menu.

    The service was amazing and the food is tasty. I definitely will be back for more. Very welcoming atmosphere.

    I'm no connoisseur of Cambodian food, but I know good food. The portions are big and the prices are fair. This place is owned by the same people as Kim Heang market and the staff are so friendly! I would definitely stop by next time you're in West Valley. Plus you can stop by the market across the street after you're done.

    Probably my 5th or 6th time here. Boba and masubi are fantastic here as usual. Love that they added a warming case to keep things fresh. By far my favorite neighborhood boba stop.

    Simply delicious, the Ko Kho Beef Stew is my favorite. Thanks Kyle D for the recommendation!

    I really enjoy going to Vive. I found it a few years ago when we lived by Liberty Park. I haven't…read morebeen in the past year and a half since we moved (even if it's out of your way, they do have a subscription delivery program) but I stopped by today and was pleasantly surprised to see how much they've grown. In addition to their juices and shots, they have a kombucha bar, apothecary items and even a book section! Wow! The place is clean and organized, and very welcoming. Parking is still tight (especially with the snow on the roads), but otherwise there is some street parking. They also still have their recycling program (bring your clean bottles back for a $0.50 refund). Thank you Bailey, for helping me decide what to get today. I normally go with the Sensei, but today I went with the Merry and Bright and Adrenal Tonic to help with more recovery from my sinus infection. I'm glad I had the time to go visit in store today! I love the growth and changes!

Whether for a cleanse or a healthy snack, their juices always taste fantastic and leave me feeling great. The new matcha chia pudding is insanely addictive. But you can't go wrong with a Sweet Mint if you're looking for a good place to start. Their service is always so great, and they are knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. Thanks, Vive!

So I keep avoiding it but I finally decided to get it . I don't remember what my husband ordered but he said it was yummy . I did ordered brown sugar boba, it was very good . Customer service does need improvements. While waiting for our drinks we took some selfies lol !

    I Was running around doing errands and had a hankering for some boba. Saw "best in Utah" sign and…read moresaid "why not?!" They had a bit of a line, was a good sign. It was clean and had some fun tunes playing. I loved the big menu and all the options. They even had sizes I've never seen before. I had to get the "extra chubby". I ordered a ube coconut snow with lychee jelly and boba pearls with a teriyaki chicken bowl. were set. The price was ideal. And we waited abt 10minutes, I'm assuming bc of the line, but honestly not terrible. IMO. The boba was as good as I've had any other boba spot and the size was just what I wanted for my long day of mommy thangs. it lasted til I was done with all of my errands. It was the perfect "pick me up". The teriyaki bowl would've been great if they didn't soup it up with all the teriyaki sauce. Next time I'll just ask for it on the side. The egg rolls come as part of the bowl and they were good nothing crazy but it hit the spot. For what it's worth I'll def go again. It was what I expected fast food and perfect for on the go, quick lunches etc. I would recommend it for something fast and easy.
