I had the opportunity to try Hijau during their soft opening and all I can say is I can't wait to…read morego back!! At first glance, the aesthetics felt so earthy yet so pristine, calming & inviting all at the same time. I'm south East Asian, so maybe it just felt familiar. I love the mixture of wood and bamboo. They made some really good choices with the furniture - so cute! The lighting felt right. Love the overall vibe! I'm coming back solely just to work in this space! I've only tried their iced pandan lattes and can't wait to try other things but so far, it had a good amount. A lot of places fall short of the pandan flavor, but not this one! I'm curious what their pastry offerings will look like once they're a little bit more settled. Keep up with the good work and can't wait to see how this place grows in time!

I've worked my way through pretty much the entire menu, and not a single thing has disappointed…read more The staff is always so welcoming, the ambiance is chill and inviting, and the drinks are absolutely sensational. One of my personal favorites is the banana chai with a few shots of espresso trust me on this one The pastries are always fresh and delicious too. I used to work across the street and made sure I got my Soul fix regularly or it just wasn't a good day! In all seriousness, this is easily one of my favorite coffee joints in the Bay Area, and I've been to a lot of them over the years. Soul Nirvana never misses.

Honey Lavender Latte is my favorite drink here. Okay, I just ordered this one. But it's good, I…read moreknow I will keep on getting it. The place is nice and modern, filled with fun art works. The ambiance is bright light and colors, which gives it a fun vibe instead of cozy. Service was okay. We got our drink at a decent waiting time. Will surely get the drink again when I'm around the area.

Nice coffee spot in Cupertino with walkable area around the apartment complex!…read more Plenty of parking spots, many options of coffee and non coffee drinks, nice staff and quick service! I got iced latte and it was quite good. There is a restroom inside. Overall it's a really fun place with paintings and posters around, big tables and outside sitting!

I recently tried a pho latte which was quite unique, and an orange scone that was delicious. I will not be trying the pho latte again since pho in coffee is an acquired taste. The owner is a bit strict about bringing pets inside, which was a bit of a downside for me.

Best durian drinks I've ever had and the only place I would come for durian drinks! I've gotten…read moresaid drinks multiple times (3-4) so I would say I have a decent sample size! I haven't tried other drinks so I won't comment on those~ Drinks taste and smell like durian, definitely only for durian lovers. There's durian flesh/pulp at the bottom~ The Signature Golden Durian Smoothie is the one I would recommend if you love durian. The Durian Blossom is also very pleasant because it mixes in jasmine tea! The one durian drink I didn't like was Durian Silk Brew (I think this is a seasonal drink) because it included fermented rice. The mix of durian and alcohol/fermentation was too much for my taste buds. Line can be long, there are a few kiosks inside to place your orders and some (usually crowded) tables at the side.

We ordered multiple drinks, and it took about 75 minutes to get our order…read more !!!!!!Warning to others: Be careful when entering your phone number on the ordering screen. The system doesn't automatically clear the previous person's number. Someone before us entered their phone number but decided not to order. My sister was next, and she placed and paid for her order without entering her own number because she didn't realize it was still using the previous person's number. Later, we found out that someone else picked up her drinks because of the number mistake. So make sure the screen is back at the main ordering page and that your own phone number is entered before placing your order. The drinks themselves were light and yummy. We also went during a BOGO 50% off promotion, which was a nice bonus. The drinks were good, but the 75-minute wait and ordering mix-up were definitely frustrating.

I come here pretty regularly for their matcha drinks. My go-to is the honey matcha latte with oat…read moremilk. They give you the option to put double matcha (for the honey matcha latte) which is a plus! The double shot of matcha and the honey pairs really well together. It has the perfect amount of sweetness and a perfect amount of matcha to make it taste rich without being bitter. The strawberry matcha latte has strawberry puree and strawberry bits which makes it taste really sweet. It's a really good contrast of flavors and an overall solid strawberry matcha latte. They also updated the self-ordering kiosk with 2 instead of one now, so there's barely any lines now compared to when they first opened. The drinks are a lot quicker so you don't have to wait too long. There's also no seats inside but there's plenty of waiting space on the outside patio! Overall I would highly recommend this place for matcha lovers. Their matcha is super rich in flavor and they have a lot of options. Sometimes, they also have matcha powder in stock too! The spot is also right off of 280 so it's pretty convenient.

Izumi is a really solid matcha spot. You can taste the authenticity and quality of the matcha, and…read morethey whisk it really well. My first experience was pretty mid because the ceremonial matcha latte was VERY strong and bitter. I couldn't finish it and it made me super jittery. After coming back a few more times though, I found a couple things I really liked. The Crème Brûlée Matcha was delicious. I finished the entire drink. You can't change the sweetness level, which is unfortunate, but their recommended sweetness actually balanced the stronger matcha really well. The ice cream is probably the best thing here. Super creamy, perfectly sweet and really well blended. I would honestly come back just for the ice cream. The strawberry matcha latte was pretty unmemorable to me, and the hojicha was also extremely bitter. Service was good. The barista was kind and helpful, which I appreciated. You order through a kiosk, so there isn't a ton of interaction overall. When I first came around their opening, there was basically no line. After they started getting more hype, the lines became longer and longer. I think it's worth trying, but personally I wouldn't wait in a huge line for it. Overall, the matcha itself tastes authentic and is prepared well, but some drinks are just too bitter for my preference. My recommendations: the ice cream or Crème Brûlée Matcha. Those were easily the standouts for me.

This was a nice surprise because I do love the franchise. So when I came across this as we were…read morewalking through the shops, I had to stop. I always look at their swag, but they don't have a lot in store. You can get more online. I thought it was odd that they had a hooded sweatshirt rather than a T-shirt during the summer, but maybe that's popular in this area. I ordered a peanut butter cold brew, which was amazing. I think it's a summer thing for a seasonal drink. It was very, very tasty. The restaurant itself for coffee shop that there be had seating inside and out, and this would be a place that I would frequent if I lived in the neighborhood.

Stopped by yesterday with my kid, and we had a really nice experience. The restaurant is beautiful,…read morevery clean, and has a welcoming atmosphere. We ordered the Morning Thai Cioppino and the Pimped Up Ramyun, and both were excellent. The Morning Thai Cioppino had a bold, authentic tom yum flavor with just the right balance of spice and tanginess. The Pimped Up Ramyun was a pleasant surprise. It definitely gave me instant ramen vibes, but in the best way possible. It was comforting, flavorful, and clearly made with much better ingredients than your average cup of ramen. The service was friendly, the food came out quickly, and everything tasted fresh. We'll definitely be back to try more dishes. Highly recommend checking this place out!

OHH MY GOSH! This…read moreplace seemed like one of those gentrified modern dubai chocolate menu itemed brunch spot, though it is quite new I can't deny the food is EXTREMELY good. Came on a Wednesday around lunch. It was veryyy busy so expect slow service, not that it's their fault. Omurice - WOWWW this was so flavorful and had the egg cooked to perfection. I loved the short rib it was sooo tender and juicy. Blueberry cream cheese french toast - this was not as sweet as I expected it to be, but delicious alas. Love how you could sweeten to your liking, and the contrast to the almost salty cream cheese inside was a nice touch. Definitely recommend!

I like that they use biodegradable materials like paper for the cups/straws. No issues with off flavors from the paper straw. The yin yang boba pearls were good, not much to comment on. Yin yang jelly was one of the highlights, the white part was rich and custardy. Fried mushrooms they used king oyster mushrooms with big cubes from the stem of the large mushroom, the mushroom flavor really comes through since there is a lot of meat. I really enjoyed it.

I used to make a trip here every weekend from Newark (30-45 min drive) because I was obsessed with…read morethis place. The tea flavor was strong and the toppings were also good. I used to get 3 drinks for myself and I also got my friends hooked on it. But recently, ever since they switched to paper cups, the quality has significantly declined. You cannot taste the tea anymore in any of the drinks/overall just bland. I don't know if they didn't adjust the ratio properly or cheapening out but it's been a let down the last 3-4 times I've been here. The toppings are still the same. Sadly, I will not be returning. This used to be the best milk tea spot in the bay but now it's just mediocre at best, like most places.
