    Bobas are good, cute little Boba shop. We were looking forward to the mochi donuts as well but there was one sad looking one left.

    Super cute shop, and so much to look at while waiting. The menu has great options and the mochi doughnuts looked delicious. The boba was warm sweet and delicious with lots of different flavored pearl options. Our kids loved their drinks and the milk tea was perfect and not to sweet.

    The Sonoma recover hospital isn't too far and my mom wanted thai tea with boba and this beautiful place popped up first on yelp. Gave it a try. The area is nice and open, love the nature outside of the area. Love the decor going into the space. Service was prompt and swift. Not much talking just straight to the point of what I wanted to order. They were busy so I get it. Acknowledging your customers would be a great tip of advice. But no biggie. I loved everything inside the buisness. Offered so many varieties of things and candies. Pina colada was really tasty and not too sweet. Unfortunately they didn't have popping mango that goes with the drink so I opted out of the other add ons because they were very limited on what they have in the menu. Thai Tea was by far good. Taste just like thai tea and the boba was alright. Felt it could've been cooked more cause it was a bit tough. Other than that the drink was good but not the boba. I would revisit to try other drinks since I visit my dad weekly. Thank you Bubbles Boba and gifts.

    My niece says this is the best Boba in Sonoma County and I trust her. She's a Boba expert.

    The warm sweet pearls are perfection here. I got a jasmine milk tea with almond milk and was so happy they had alternative milk options! +$1 for a larger size, that's a good deal ;) the place is super cute and decorated in pink. I love all the adorable stickers by the cashier too. Friendly staff and eager to help! Will be back the next time I'm in the area

    3 boba drinks.

    I was in the Barlow picking up lunch and wanted to swing by to pick up some Boba drinks. First off their customer service is sh*tty! I called to place a to go order and was told to "place the order online". Ok, I went online to their website to place the order and it shows "Our store is currently not accepting orders". I quickly called back and the same guy answered the phone. He seemed annoyed that I called back and at that moment, I could feel he would either spit in my drink or something terrible would happen to my drinks. I should've hung up and not ordered. BUT, I did anyway and my gut feeling was right. I ordered 3 drinks: The matcha latte, a Pina Colada smoothie and a Strawberry cream smoothie. My husband's Pina Colada was undrinkable. There were broken shards of BLACK PLASTIC in his drink (See attached photo). Maybe their blender was breaking into pieces, I do not know. The service I received at the store was not friendly either. Skip this place at all cost!

    Super watery and literally couldn't even taste the tea. Terrible and a waste of $6 plus tip for a tiny one! What the heck?? You all know nothing about boba.

    Gifts, cards, candles, etc.

    Super cute shop - love the gifts, stickers, sweets and snack they offer. Friendly service - no tables inside, but about 3 tables outside. Just lovely.

    I've been here many times and it's my fav boba spot. Yummy tasting drinks, friendly staff, and cute store of knacks and snacks. I love the lavender, rose, and tiger milk teas the most. The cream at the top is divine. Didn't know this until recently, but you can get decaf tea. I'm here for it! Plus they have these donut slash mochi glazed treats. I love the ginger one and the pink one with sprinkles. This is my go-to when I have manipedi dates across the street. Super convenient location with tons of parking. They get you in and out of here quick!

    Mochi Donut!
    Lisa W.

    What a delightful shop! While perusing this shopping center we stumbled upon this charming store. I had fun looking at the eclectic variety of gifts here. The mochi donuts looked great, but I had just eaten so was too full to try. I will definitely be back to sample them! I loved the cool earrings here. Both the owner & employee were very friendly.

    Finally! A boba place I don't have to beg them to do 5-10% sweetness on a drink. Every single boba place I've been is WAY too sweet, Bubbles does it right, just a hint of sweetness. The staff is absolutely incredible, we showed up right when they opened and it was packed with a line out the very small, unassuming store. The employee there when we arrived was working hard taking orders and making teas for every customer, but made sure to acknowledge each and every one of us letting us know they'd be with us shortly. I never mind a wait when it is busy, as long as the staff is courteous. When we came up to order, they were extremely sweet and apologetic for the wait (which they didn't need to be). We asked for their recommendations and tried a few of the tasty donuts, one ube and one matcha, chewy, tasty donuts. We also had a taro milk tea with their homemade brown sugar boba (perfect and not overly sweet at all) and a strawberry milk tea with mango stars (unique, fun, and delish). I highly recommend a visit to this tiny little spot at your earliest availability!

    What a cute place. So many cute earrings, cards and other small gifts. They also have pastries and boba. I didn't try the boba but I did buy the mochi donuts. They were delightful not to sweet just prefect. The staff were incredibly nice.

    Inside the shop with lots of fun knick nacks

I came in…read morewith high expectations after seeing the great Yelp reviews and was especially interested in the Vietnamese coffee and huge variety of cold foams. The shop itself is adorable, lots of plants and greenery, which I loved. I had already looked at the menu and knew exactly what I wanted. I ordered a watermelon slush, and the employee confirmed they had it. She then asked how much lemon I wanted, explaining that they typically do half or a full lemon. I asked what was standard, and she recommended a full lemon. I then ordered a Vietnamese coffee with cheese foam and Biscoff foam. After waiting, my first drink came out completely wrong. Um it was a matcha. A male employee eventually corrected the Vietnamese coffee order. I then asked about my watermelon slush, only to be told that it had never been rung in. What was most frustrating was that instead of simply acknowledging the mistake, the employee blamed me multiple times for not ordering it. I clearly remembered the conversation because we had specifically discussed the lemon, and she had recommended the full lemon. I explained the entire interaction to her, yet she continued to insist that I was somehow responsible. At that point, I made it very clear that I did not want to continue speaking with her. She continued insisting on engaging with me anyway. I felt completely unheard and, honestly, harassed by the interaction. The way the conversation was handled made me question my own recollection of what had just happened, it felt extremely gaslighting. She eventually made the drink, but then slammed it onto the counter, causing it to fall over. Thankfully, it had a lid on it. At that point, I was extremely uncomfortable and asked the male employee for the owner's contact information. He said he couldn't provide it, so I left my name and phone number and requested that the owner contact me. The Vietnamese coffee was actually very good, which makes this experience even more disappointing. However, I did not drink the watermelon slush because, after the way the interaction was handled, I no longer felt comfortable consuming it. Mistakes happen. What matters is how you handle them. Taking accountability, respecting a customer's boundaries, and treating them with basic courtesy should be the bare minimum. Unfortunately, I experienced none of that. It's a shame because the atmosphere is cute and the coffee was good, but one employee's behavior completely ruined my first impression of the business. One person really can ruin an entire customer experience. I hope the owner follows up because this was incredibly disappointing, especially given the positive reputation of this establishment.

    Surprise, surprise, this is not your typical mall food. Yes, it's right next to Panda Express and…read morethe name "Asian Boba Bistro" doesn't exactly inspire thoughts of authentic Lao (and Thai and Vietnamese) food. But it is! The chef is Lao. The chicken Thai basil over rice is absolutely delicious. But be warned... it is very spicy. They should warn people on the menu sign or ask for a spice level. I'm used to spicy food and I loved it but I was nearly crying from the heat (both spice level and temperature). It's some of the best ~Pad Gra Pow I've had. 5 out of 5 stars. The chicken noodle soup is anything but basic. It's such yummy comfort food. The broth is soothing and has body. Not sure how else to describe it but it's "thicker" than typical broth. Cilantro and lots of white pepper, as well as garlic and probably ginger, help to flavor it. The thick rice noodles seem freshly made. They are soft and silky without being too starchy. 4.5 out of 5 stars. They use chicken thighs in both dishes which is fine but I'd prefer chicken breast. That's probably my only complaint and it's a minor one. The Thai Iced Tea is good but not great. It seems like they made it correctly but the tea leaves maybe aren't the highest quality. The boba itself is quite fresh and tasty. 3.5 stars out of 5. They could use some improvements to their menu and marketing. Most people probably assume they just sell boba. Their sign should say something like "Authentic Lao/Thai food" or "Family recipes". I think they are the only non-chain restaurant in the mall. I'm rounding up to 5 stars. This place exceeds expectations. My daughter loves the food and introduced me to it. She has high standards for Lao/Thai food.

Ha Gao: Good amount of shrimp and good flavor. However I think they put too much tapioca starch in their dough and it makes it too chewy. 2. Pan fried chive dumplings: Similar to the Ha gao, the flavor was excellent inside but the dough on the outside is too chewy and has too much tapioca starch but otherwise good and really big! 3. Siu Mai: Super delicious and generously sized. 4. Shrimp rolls: Delicious and fresh shrimp! 5. Sweet and sour pork: I loved this and it was one of the highlights even though it wasn't dim sum. The pork was super flavorful and crunchy. Loved that it came with veggies. 6. Seafood crunchy noodles: Delicious with perfectly crunchy noodles. Wish it had a bit more sauce but otherwise good amount of seafood! 7. Eggplant shrimp: Very nice soft eggplant with a good amount of shrimp inside! Overall, highly recommend this place. Is it as good as HK? no but is it way better than I expected and as good as most places in SF? YES! I'd rather come here by a long shot than drive all the way to SF to get dim sum. Ill definitely be back!

I have often accidentally ordered tea with cheese foam, because Happy Lemon also offers milk-free tea options. Pros: I love salted cheese foam, and Happy Lemon delivers on it! Their milk teas with salted cheese foam are amazing. I've also had the taro milk tea with salted mochi in it, which has a very creamy texture and a great combination of saltiness and sweetness. I have also had the strawberry matcha smoothie, which I also enjoyed. The counter tends to be busy whenever I go, but the staff is always trying their best and they are helpful. Another great thing about Happy Lemon is that they never charge you extra for ordering drinks without ice. There are also no issues with parking since Happy Lemon is located directly in the Santa Rosa Plaza Mall, where there are parking garages close by. Cons: The tapioca tends to be undercooked, so the texture is often stiff instead of chewy. The drinks are too sweet for my liking, and this is coming from someone who has a sweet tooth. I've ordered drinks at 75% sweetness before like I do at other tea shops, but when I ordered from Happy Lemon, the drink was so sweet that I felt extremely sick and had to add some water at home to dilute the taste. This is because Happy Lemon adds an unbelievable amount of sugar to their tapioca and jellies. If you plan on ordering a drink with tapioca and grass jellies, consider getting 0~25% sweetness. I've been ordering at 0% sweetness lately. Depending on the time and day, Happy Lemon tends to get busy, but I haven't experienced any long lines. One way I feel that they could cut down lines is having a self-service device, but unlike other Happy Lemon stores, the Santa Rosa Plaza Mall location does not have one. I asked the staff about it and they said that they don't have one because of concerns about theft. Overall: Happy Lemon's service is great, and having salted cheese foam is a plus in my book! However, their drinks are extremely sweet, and probably much more sugary than any other milk tea shop I've been to. Consider ordering 0~25% sweetness if you add tapioca or jellies. I have not ordered anything else from Happy Lemon, so I can't comment on them, but I would like to try the egg puff waffle someday.
