    10. Bambu Favorite (Hat Luu Suong Sao Banh Lot)
    Amie N.

    ive gotten BAMBU five times within the past 2 weeks. such an underrated Vietnamese dessert. 16oz cup was around $8-$9 and the cup is filled all the way. u can ask for the ice in the cup or in a baggy on the side. the bambu special comes with grass jelly/red tapioca rubies/pandan jelly in sweetened coconut milk. overall not too sweet + the ice can mellow it out. i loved the equal ratios among the three toppings. served with both a straw and a spoon but i like to sip it with the straw! fast service. accept cash and card. plentiful seating inside that is always clean. easy parking everyday. rarely busy ever throughout the day.

    I haven't had che for a while so I sent hubby here to get me a drink. I ordered Bambu Special #1 (substitute coconut with grass jelly & half sugar) and a pandan waffle. The drink was delicious with the perfect amount of sweetness. As for the pandan waffle, it got soggy by the time hubby got home but that's not the store's fault. The flavor was good and I loved the texture of the waffle.

Wow this place just been remodeled or got it remodeled and its sooo nice and modern there!! I mentioned to the owner what i wanted exactly and he recommended #6. and i also got their Pandan Waffles. Loved them both sooo much so thank u! The vibe there is so cute! would recommend this spot!

    Taro dessert 5/5 - this was so good! I don't think it's a traditional viet dessert but it was good. I like that the taro is real taro and not just powder. It is a little expensive for viet dessert but it's pretty big and more than enough for two people to share.

    A refreshing desert and snack with the taste of Vietman. Something different and bring out the favorite of Vietman. Here is my scoring card for this restaurant: 1) Location: ( 5 Point ) - Great location for customer to see and find. Parking is feasible. 2) Decoration : (2 Point) - They still have the original decoration. Clean and ok. 3) Price: ( 4 point)- The price is competitive but still a little bit pricey compare to other same stars and type food they serve 4) Quality and Taste : ( 3 point)- The quality is ok, food taste is good and portions are average . 5) Type of desert standard : ( 4 point) - The style of desert they serve is pretty close to the way it was prepare in Vietman . Not bad! But some desert did have slightly modify to cater the customer's need Overall it's not bad and I thinks it's great to give it a try and let me know what you think. Go foodies Total max is 25 Score 18 Stars = 72% round up to 3 stars

    This is such a cute little spot. The Vietnamese coffee is extremely good, and strong. I get it with crystal boba, and coffee jelly's he variety of jelly's is nice. The place is always clean, and it's very nice to come in and see the nice cashiers.

    First time having Che as well as the many ingredients in the drink. Came on a weekday and there wasn't that many people so was able to get our drink quickly. I can't really tell the difference between Bambu Favorite and Fruit Addict drinks that I got, so I'll just be describing my more favorite ingredients. First time having jackfruit and it's kind of similar to mango, not all that bad. One of the drinks had whole coconut and lychee in it which I was very surprised. My favorite part of both drinks though was definitely the pandan jelly and lychee jelly which had such a strong flavor to it. Che is like boba but upgraded, one drink will most definitely fill you up. Overall, okay experience. Che is kind of what you expect, coconut milk with a bunch of ingredients inside it. I think if you are a boba fan, would definitely recommend checking this out, but don't think this will replace my boba craving any time soon.

    Love their combination yogurt drink. Its sweet and tangy and full of fruit bits. They don't skimp out on the fruits which is why this is my go to drink. Its easy to order and they make it fast. Since its a small store They only have a few tables inside. Parking can be a hassle but we can somehow manage.

    Menu as of 5.14.23

    Bambu has gotten pricy. I got 3 avocado smash and a jasmine green tea, $30. Avocado smash used to be $5. Service was quick and the menu has expanded slightly. The menu is simpler compared to other boba shops.

    Cheerful Che menu :)

    Haven't been to Bambu in a long time and can't wait to go back when I'm craving some che again. Ventured over on my lunch break when I was running errands, and the lady taking my order was super friendly. She checked if I wanted the ice packed with or separately. Good reminder for when the weather is warmer to order a few extra and get the ice packed separately to enjoy later. The store is quite small so I waited outside when I saw another customer approaching. Took a quick phone call, and when I looked up, my order was ready. It was inconvenient to eat with a spoon while I was working, so I only used the straw. Thus, there was some taro and bean medley left over. I poured some oat milk in and it surprisingly was yummy that way too. At $4.75 it is a reasonable price point for tastiness and satiety.

    I feel like this location isn't quite up to par with the other ones :( Last time we came here they put so many toppings and not enough drink, my bf also found a hair in his drink. This time was better, the drink and topping ratio was perfect! My top 2 drinks are the bambu special and bambu favorite. The bambu special is good if you want something refreshing, it has chia seeds and coconut strips! The bambu favorite is so good if you want something a little more milky / heavier! It has fake "pomegranate seeds", pandan jelly and grass jelly.

The Dragon bowl was refreshing and not overly heavy, with a nice tropical flavor from the dragon fruit, pineapple, banana, and mango. The toppings added a good mix of crunch and sweetness. The Adaptogenic Mushroom Toast was probably my favorite. The mushrooms had a nice savory, earthy flavor and paired well with the toast and creamy toppings. The truffle oil and added avocados were exceptional. It was filling without feeling too heavy. Everything felt fresh and filling without being overly heavy. Prices are a little up there, but I like that there are a lot of plant-based options that actually taste good. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm looking for something healthier but still flavorful.

    One of my favorite boba shops in the Bay Area -- absolutely worth a visit!…read more I've been to quite a few boba shops around the Bay Area, and UMe Tea is definitely one of the places that really stands out to me. This is the kind of place where you have a great experience and genuinely want to come back again. I work out regularly and pay quite a bit of attention to what I eat and drink, so I'm usually pretty careful with sugary drinks. In the past, I often found that boba drinks could be way too sweet or heavy, and after a few sips I would already feel like I'd had enough. What I really appreciate about UMe Tea is that their drinks can be customized, and the flavors themselves are actually very enjoyable without relying entirely on sweetness. For my recent visit, I ordered the Guava Strawberry Sticky Rice Yogurt with 30% sugar, fixed ice, and oat popping boba. It was SO good. The guava and strawberry flavors were fruity and refreshing, while the yogurt gave the drink a smooth and slightly tangy flavor. The sticky rice added a really interesting texture, and the oat popping boba made every sip more fun. What I especially like is that the drink has multiple layers of flavor and texture. It doesn't just taste like sugar. You can actually taste the fruit, yogurt, and toppings separately, and everything works really well together. As someone who works out regularly, I really appreciate having the option to customize the sweetness. 30% sugar was perfect for me, and I never felt like the drink was overly sweet or heavy. I also ordered the Popcorn Chicken / Salt & Pepper Chicken with the Spicy Chili BBQ seasoning. The chicken was crispy on the outside, flavorful, and paired really well with the drink. But honestly, what makes me want to come back isn't just the food and drinks -- the staff at the Milpitas location are fantastic. Everyone was very friendly, welcoming, and genuinely nice. The service felt personal rather than rushed, and the staff made me feel very comfortable. The manager and the employees were especially friendly, and you can tell that they care about the customer experience. That matters a lot to me because I'm the type of customer who will keep coming back to a place when I know I'm going to get both good food and good service. I also really like that UMe Tea has options for people with different preferences. Whether you like sweeter drinks, lighter drinks, fruit-based drinks, yogurt drinks, or different toppings, there are plenty of combinations to try. I'm someone who enjoys working out and eating relatively clean most of the time, but I still want to enjoy a good drink occasionally. UMe Tea is one of the places where I feel like I can do that without having to order something ridiculously sweet just to make it taste good. Overall, this was an excellent experience. Great drinks, unique flavors, customizable sweetness, delicious snacks, and genuinely friendly staff. I will definitely be coming back and trying more drinks from the menu. I'm already thinking about what combination I want to order next time. Highly recommended. If you're in the Milpitas area and looking for a really good boba/yogurt drink, definitely give UMe Tea a try. They absolutely deserve 5 stars!

    I was in the area looking for boba, and while there were others in the same shopping plaza, I…read morehonestly only stopped in because I saw a huge pink blow up bunny in the front and had to go in! This shop is super cute, lots of pink everywhere and cute merch for sale. We got the popcorn chicken, Coco Mango, Oreo Cream Brulee Boba Oolong Milk Tea, Lychee Tea and Sticky Rice Black Milk tea. Everything (with the exception of the lychee tea - too sour) we got was soooo good. The popcorn chicken was piping hot and crispy, the drinks were a perfect combination of ingredients. My entire family really enjoyed everything we got. I don't know if they still offer it, but I ordered my drink in this super big "surprise cup".
