I told her I'm mostly a basic boba drinker that goes for Thai milk tea normally, but I really like lychee. She recommended a great tea, and when asked about the boba add-ons I wasn't sure and she said, I'll surprise you. She had a lychee boba that was reminiscent of the lychee jellies I used to like in my college days. I really appreciate a place that will make recommendations and take some of the stress of ordering off away from me. 2. They have a unique menu and it rotates seasonally! 3. All the teas are pretty much the same price. 4. The business has a chill vibe and plenty of space to lounge and hang out. 5. The tea flavor was great, it had a nice citrus incorporation. Summery and tasty with the fun aftertaste of the lychee Highly recommend this place, go check it out

They have a really interesting menu with a variety of drinks, dishes, pastries, ice cream, and plenty of ube-flavored items. For drinks, we tried the Mango Mansi and the house blend iced tea, and both were really refreshing. For our meals, we ordered the Tapsilog and Pork Silog. Both had great flavor, but unfortunately, the portion sizes were disappointing for the price. There was very little meat and the plates were mostly rice, which made the price point feel a bit high. The food itself was delicious, but the portions made it difficult to feel like the meal was worth the cost. For something sweet, we tried the ginger molasses cookie, which was good and a nice way to finish the meal. Service was nothing that stood out just standard. If you sit down they will bring it out to you which is nice. Overall, I'm glad to have a Filipino restaurant option in Saugus, and there are definitely some unique and interesting things on the menu that are worth trying. There's plenty of seating for both small and larger groups, although parking can be a little tricky since it's located right on Main Street. A good meal with lots of unique options, but with the portion sizes compared to the prices, I'm not sure we'd return.

There is a fish tank on the side if you need something to entertain yourself or small children while you wait. I got the mango boba slush with mango boba and wow, it was delicious!!
