    I forgot what I got but I came close to closing time and they ran out of boba, so they let me get two toppings. I got the mango jelly and crystal boba. Good! Sometimes there is a super long line during the day especially on weekends.

    Sunburst this day we didn't get boba but we usually have it!!!

    My daughter and I come here and get Boba drink. We. love our sunburst it's always sweet and the boba is popping

    My fave! Watermelon slush!

    Never had a problem here with ordering. Staff is friendly. Sometimes drinks take a while if there's only one person working. Thats fine. Not a problem. Drinks come out good. Next I will try their Acai bowl. They also have snacks like chicken bites and mozzarella sticks too. Haven't tried them yet though. This spot is located in Southland Mall.

    Strawberry and watermelon refresher

    "Hands down one of the best boba spots in town! The watermelon refresher was rich, flavorful, and the boba was cooked perfectly. Great customer service Karla was very patient/ friendly and help me chose the right topics for our drinks. This is a really nice, clean spot. I'll definitely be coming back.

    Solid Boba Spot - it's a chain brand located in Malls. I order the same thing a Brown Sugar Oreo Milk Tea and it gets the job done. Depending on how busy it is, there can be a wait. But overall a consistent experience regardless of the location. - Mrs Arizona United States

    So Boba Nation used to be Boba Time and I absolutely love Boba Time because it's a Southern California chain that I love when I used to live in Southern California. I recently tried 2 drinks, the ube milk and plain yogurt smoothie. I was excited to try it because the menu is very similar to Boba Time and I think the owners decided to change all the Boba Time locations in the Bay Area to Boba Nation. The ube milk was way too sweet and did not taste good at all. The yogurt smoothie was pretty watery and didn't really taste like tart yogurt. I was disappointed and hopefully they can change the quality. I know they are opening a new location at Eastridge mall in San Jose so I don't have to drive all the way to Newark or Hayward in the future. I will try their other drinks and see if there's any standouts because I will definitely want to give them another chance.

    Are there latte free options available?

    Do you mean caffeine free? If so, yes. They have lemonades that don't have caffeine in them and you can still get all the add ons. Just can't add milk or adjust sweetness... Because it's lemonade.

    Order: 1 BBQ Chicken Bánh Mì…read more1 Mango Cane Nước Mia Total: $16.09 The Bánh Mì was PHENOMENAL! The bread was so soft yet crunchy and flaky--I could tell it was extremely fresh. The BBQ chicken was very tender with no fat and cooked with delicious spices. Just incredible. The veggies were also very fresh and crunchy. With every bite it just kept getting better. It's a pretty big-sized Bánh Mì--you can easily eat half and save the other half for later. The mango cane drink was delicious and very refreshing. I enjoyed every sip of it. Food: 10/10. The service was excellent! The young ladies working there were very welcoming and sweet. One even grabbed me a stool to sit on while I waited for my order, which was very thoughtful. The wait was not long 5-10 minutes. Not many customer around 12pm on Friday. Customer service: 10/10. The ambiance is cute. It's located in the heart of downtown Hayward near City Hall. The establishment is tiny, but they do have stools where you can sit and enjoy your Bánh Mì it's almost like being in Vietnam. There's no outside seating. Parking can definitely be challenging. You can park in the Lucky's supermarket lot, across the street in the parking structure, or if you're lucky, find street parking right in front of the establishment. This might be my favorite Bánh Mì spot. I will definitely be coming back. I just hope one day their hours and days expand. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!

    Really cute branding with friendly service, but can definitely improve on their banh mi quality…read more We ordered the Combination Banh Mi; price is $8 for any of their three banh mi options. The meat was cut ridiculously thick--thicker than I've ever seen or eaten before. I really didn't enjoy the head cheese; it really lacked flavor. There was also no pickled daikon in our sandwich. Disappointing experience overall ): I would return to try their sugarcane juice, but definitely will not be getting another sammie.

    We went on a random Thursday for brunch, so my review is based on that. I can't speak to how busy…read moreweekends are, but the day we went, it was perfect. There wasn't a wait for food or a table. It was actually pretty empty. Such a homey vibe and the chefs/cooks were super friendly and attentive. They cooked our food outside on a grill vs a traditional kitchen. The prices are pretty good for all the food you get. They stack your plate! We really enjoyed all the food (chilaquiles rojos and the verdes with meat, and three quesabirrias). We couldn't finish it all! You can tell it's all homemade, which is nice. A lot of places don't make their chilaquiles sauce from scratch. We'd definitely return. The only thing I'd pass on is the Vietnamese coffee. Maybe it was our fault for ordering this at a Mexican spot, but it tasted more like cold brew than Vietnamese coffee.

The quesabirrias were well made and stuffed, no skimping! My sister got the chilaquiles verdes and she said they were a good amount of spice for her. I got my nieces huevos con jamón and they loved it, if you have littles, make sure you cut the ham. It's cut vertically and they were big strips. I also liked that they had fruit bowls. The drinks are poured into these amazing cups. They're beautiful! The mocha wasn't my favorite but the food was the highlight, so I'm not too upset. The service was quick, fast and the people friendly. Overall, I'd take my dad there.

Not much seating in Southland Mall either. Just in the food court on the lower level. Was serviced quickly by single attendant who was multitasking. Took my order, I paid, got order in 5ish minutes.

There were 2 Hispanic girls of which one was very rude, she seemed to be the one in charge. One of the girls was already counting the money from the register on the counter. They closed the register 20 minutes before closing time. They were more interested in going home than doing what they were hired to do. I called the store on 6-2-26 at 3:30 pm and asked to speak to a manager the girl who answered said the manager was not there. I asked for the manager's name and she said," I don't know" and hung up on me. Please Surf City Squeeze hire people with good customer service, who actually want to work.
