    Thai Milk Tea
    Alexis B.

    I really enjoyed their drinks. Their boba is amazing and fresh. Customer service was amazing. Had a friendly staff. Had some cute anime pins, and keychains. If you don't like it being there when's it's crowded, I would recommend going early afternoons. I recommend trying everything on the menu when you get the chance. It all looked so good. My boyfriend got the Strawberry Cheesecake boba and I got Thai Milk Tea Boba.

    Nice atmosphere and modern seating. It seems as if all the new places in the valley are going for the green forest vibe. Reasonably priced boba as there are several bases and flavors. Combine a base and flavor and choose a 16oz ($3.99) or 24 oz ($4.99). Then, wait for your boba to be served. Didn't want to decide what to combine, so I opted for the Tiger Milk Tea. It is noted as one of their speciality teas. Surprised to hear that I was the last one to receive this drink till Monday. (I was here on a early Saturday afternoon.) Surprisingly, great boba for an average price of $5.50. Their straws are paper straws- getting a thumbs up for ecofriendliness so they are going for the green look. Didn't have the chance to try out the bubble waffle treat or waffle pop. Not really crazy about it. Had my fair share of bobas around the world and the valley, and this is the best for your money and taste. Wouldn't bother going to the rest of boba establishments. You can tell the difference between powder and actual tea.

    I took my nephews here as a treat for one of their birthdays and they all had a great time. Everyone had blended teas with bursting boba and bubble waffles with ice cream. The kids were a little overwhelmed by the menu choices since it was their first time but everyone was very patient. My ten year old nephew said it best - all the drinks were yummy, the waffles with ice cream were perfect, and the workers were friendly! I had the cheese tea as recommended by a staff member. It sounds like a weird combo but it was really good. Give them a try - everything tastes as good as it looks! All the kids left with big smiles :)

    A great place to go get boba and a dessert snack in the early afternoon. With a great atmosphere and wonderful customer service I really enjoyed this place. I had the Matcha waffle and it was amazing. The black sugar boba was not the best I have had but still good.

    Best boba I've had in the valley so far. Cute little shop with a fresh and inviting atmosphere. The owners are super nice and really helpful when ordering. I like my drinks over ice but you can also get them blended. They also have bubble waffle cones with ice cream.

    We were looking for a breakfast place we hadn't eaten at while we were in town and came here…read more Our server was very friendly. The menu had some great and different choices in addition to the regular breakfast fare. I opted for the Western Omelette and added jalapeños and cilantro and had hash browns and bacon as sides. The omelette was prepared well - the only suggestion would be to put the cheddar inside the omelette or have it melted on top; otherwise it was very good. The bacon was thick and prepared perfectly (for me) - not brittle! The hash browns had a good flavor and were brown and slightly crunchy on the outside and soft inside. My wife had the Cinnamon Crunch French Toast with eggs over easy and bacon. The eggs were prepared properly; the French toast (she added blueberries) was very good - good cinnamon flavor and cooked just right. Pleasantly surprised by this place - since it's a 'regional franchise' we were somewhat skeptical but they managed to overcome being a franchise with quality food. The restaurant itself is very open in its design, which did lend to it being very noisy which was a 'down' side for it. We would come back.

    Pretty basic breakfast spot. Imagine iHop with a small town feel…read more The servers and host were most gracious. The prices are very inviting. The food was cool. Nothing to get too excited about but it'll hit the spot and quiet those stomach rumblings. A perfect spot to bring the family on the weekend for a good bite that won't blow your budget.

    I had just arrived in town and I was hungry. Thankfully, a family member had this diner on their…read moremust-try list, and it went pretty well. We all ordered something different with the goal of being able to taste more of the menu. The menu is a well-rounded Southern American selection, and all of it is made in-house. It was a nice touch with the newspaper like menu, loved the decor and cabin home theme. The side salad was fresh; however, the house-made ranch was too creamy and too thick. There was potential with the cooked bacon mixed in, but the ranch flavor was missing. The cup of chili was great, similar to Wendy's chili if you needed a comparison. My meatloaf was good; the added carrots and topped crispy onions weren't too bad; however, the drizzled brown gravy was a no for me. The side of creamy grits and green beans and bacon were gobbled up! The cornbread muffins were a bit dry. Side of hash browns were good, a little on the oily side. The biscuit and gravy were colossal! Loved the gravy; the biscuits were a bit too doughy, almost seemed a bit undercooked, and for some reason, there seemed to be a lack of flavor in them. Enjoyed the ham and eggs. The pot roast dish was savory, and everything was nice; the veggies were a little over-seasoned, but I didn't mind them. The chicken-fried steak plate was a hit, I didn't even get a chance to take a solo photo. We had no room for desserts, and leftovers were taken home and appreciated. I'd like to add, despite ordering the larger versions of these meals, we only paid $68 and some change! The place was clean, the wait time was commendable, and the service was incredible!!! Despite the small misses, we'd still return. The majority of our food was great, and we left fuller than ever!

The place is very busy, but despite that the wait was only 10 minutes at 10:00 am on a Saturday. The hostess and our server were both very friendly. The place advertises that it specializes in home cooked comfort foods so we figured we'd have to see how their biscuits and gravy were. We ordered a 1/2 order and it came with a biscuit split in half and covered with gravy and sausage. The flavor was perfect - it definitely lived up to 'home cooked comfort food'. I ordered an omelette - three cheeses, sausage, bacon and ham with onions, cilantro and jalapeños - which came with refried (black) beans. The omelette was very good - flavorful and fresh. They actually use slices of cheese inside and on top - I've never had an omelette prepared that way but it was very good. When I first tasted the salsa I was not a fan - it was warm and had a different flavor - then I put it on the omelette and - great pairing and great flavor combo. The refried black beans were sadly underwhelming - no real flavor. I know they were homemade but they were missing the flavor that usually comes with refried beans (black or pinto) My wife had the quiche which had onions, peppers, sausage, mushrooms and cheese. It was very good. Even the crust was good. She ordered the breakfast potatoes as the side. The flavor of the potatoes was excellent. Half of them were lightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside which were great; the other half were overcooked and became potato chips - good flavor but not a breakfast potato. We will definitely come back to try their lunch food and dessert (we were too full today). They have a good variety of breakfast, lunch and dinner items on the menu so there is something for everyone. We were glad we stopped in.

    We were in town for 36 hours and decided to give this place a try - good decision…read more It's a smaller place and you order at the counter. We walked in just before the crowd which was great. The whole time we were there folks kept coming in! We tried the bacon egg and cheese biscuit. The sandwich was huge! The biscuit was buttery and flaky and very good - it was a 'different' flavor than 'traditional' biscuits - but it was great! We shared an order of biscuits and gravy. It was very good - again, a different flavor than any I've ever had - but again, really really good. It almost had a chicken fried chicken flavor to the gravy - whatever it was - very good. We shared a side of black refried beans. Honestly, I don't think I've ever had black refried beans - refried pinto beans all the time but not black refried. These did not disappoint - they had the definite homemade flavor of truly great refried beans - I would eat these again for sure. I had the ribeye burrito which came with medium rare strips of ribeye; strips of avocado; cheese; potatoes; and refried black beans. I don't like sour cream so I left that off. The burrito itself was grilled which added to it. The salsa was good and had a good balance of heat. Another win. One of our group had the oatmeal with blueberries and strawberries due to dietary restrictions. It was also very good - which was surprising for oatmeal. The oatmeal itself was baked, which is also rarely done. We would definitely come back when we ate in town next time. Different flavors than the 'norm' and all of them very good. Do yourself a favor and check this place out - you'll be glad you did!
