We finally made it to Taichi Bubble Tea in Mount Prospect, and it absolutely lived up to everything…read morewe expected. We had actually ordered through DoorDash before and loved it so much that we had to experience it in person and I'm so glad we did. There's tons of parking, plenty of interior seating, and the whole place is super clean and welcoming. You order through the Kiosk. We ordered ramen and the Pokémazing bowl both were fresh, flavorful, and had the perfect spicy kick. Truly delicious and fresh. My 4-year-old daughter got the burrito and devoured it, which says a lot! The boba was delicious as well. The most fun part? Depending on how much you spend, they give you tokens for their prize machines. My daughter won FOUR stuffed animal she was over the moon! Such a fun and unexpected bonus that made the whole experience even more memorable. Friendly staff, amazing food, fun atmosphere we will absolutely be back and highly recommend it!

They then give you tokens to try your luck at the claw machines that are.in the restaurant, one token for every $10 of food ordered. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen with Grilled Chicken and my brother went with the Miso Ramen and Tofu. We picked up our soup at the counter reasonably quickly and both soups were hot and delicious. The protein that we ordered in the soups was plentiful and the chicken was tasty. Not being that familiar with Ramen Soups, we thought that their offerings were excellent and we will be returning.

A Thousand Tales is a wonderful dining experience. The space is much larger than I expected, with a…read moremain dining room, an attached bakery cafe and what looks like a banquet room in back. Located in a strip mall, there is ample free parking. Staff is unassuming, professional and helpful, willing to help with any menu questions. We came for lunch to celebrate a birthday and it was an excellent choice. The menu has a lot of clean eating options, including vegetarian and keto. We opted to share a lamb pizza, a tomato and cucumber salad and a meat tray. All were excellent, plenty of food. The pita was excellent. The tea at the end was lovely. Prices reasonable, good food good portions. Absolutely worth checking out and adding into the rotation of where to go.

Barista Tara is a rockstar!! I visited CoCo & Blu the other day and inquired about latte art. I was…read moretold that the amazing artist who'd once made my drink had moved out of state, but that everyone else there could make hearts and flowers. Enter Tara, who said she'd try her best to make something special. She delivered an adorable bear on my drink! She said she might be able to do better, but I loved her effort and enthusiasm. My friend and I headed outside to enjoy our drinks on the patio. Several minutes later, Tara came outside carrying another latte. She had PERFECTED the latte bear and gave it to us for free! She made my entire day. Thank you to Tara for the amazing art and for going above and beyond in your customer service!! I can't wait to go back for my next coffee and hope she's working when I do.

Came here for the first time on a Saturday. Was fortunate enough to walk into town and walk in…read morehere. On a Saturday morning at not even 9 AM. Expect a line as there was a long line when we arrive. Unfortunately there's only one person at the cashier register and I think there's only one register and there's only that one person who's taking the orders. While I understand that this is a small run shop I will say that standing in line and waiting on a Saturday morning really is discouraging. The food however, a super delicious and came out very timely. So absolutely no complaints for me and they also have a water station set up so you can help yourself to water which is fantastic. After sitting around for about an hour to an hour and a half this place got super packed with families's children and strollers which made it even harder to move around. The ambience is fantastic so definitely worth it for your social media. I would come back here again, however I'm not really someone to order alcohol here at this time but for breakfast I think it's great.

The triple chocolate cake is also amazing and definitely worth trying! The only thing I didn't really enjoy was the cappuccino/latte. For my taste, I couldn't really feel the coffee flavor--it tasted more like milk. But the bakery items are definitely delicious, and I would happily come back for the croissants and cake! Atmosphere is nice and cozy. Service is pretty good. You should check this place

Tous Les Jour bakeries are popping up all over Chicago, Chicagoland & all over the country. As you may or may not know Tous Les Jour a fine French Bakery (NOT). Tous Les Jour is a Korean bakery that has hit on a winning formula. I have personally gone to at least 6 or 7 TLJ's in Chicago & Chicagoland. TLJ is international & have also eaten at locations outside the US. For me they have a great selection @ a reasonable price & availability @ numerous locations both nationally & internationally. For me TLJ is one of my favorite bakeries as I have repeatedly gone to different locations w/the same high Quality baked goods

They have it decorated with a faux cherry blossom tree and other faux greenery. They almost try to transport you onto an outside patio, even in these brutal winters. Service is not with a smile, but they offer a decent menu, so you just have to look forward to a good drink haha. We shared two drinks. Mine was the coconut coffee that could be lightly sweetened. I wanted a Vietnamese coffee since that's why we went but they couldn't make any modifications. They said it was premade and either way the coffee turned out good imo. Hubs got a brown sugar tea no boba and liked it overall. Might be back but perfectly fine!

I love that the owner is always here and she is so friendly and so kind. If you're coming here because you think you wanna get fast service, this is not the place because your drinks and your food will be made from scratch by hand with care. Everything is very thoughtfully put together and truly reflects the menu from the kiosk when you put your order in. But I love about this kiosk. Also is that they do not ask you for tip in fact there was also no tip jar. You must stop by here if you haven't already just for the absolute cuteness of the place and the kindness of the owner and how good everything here tastes!!!!

We recently stepped into the newly updated UYUHAUS ice cream and bubble tea shop and had the…read moreopportunity to bring the whole family to try a little bit of everything--where do I even begin? This place was such an experience from start to finish. One of our favorite surprises was the self-serve ramen bar. It was quick, easy, and so much fun! They had a great variety of ramen options, making it easy for everyone to pick exactly what they wanted. We also couldn't resist trying the affogato, which was the perfect little treat. For dessert, we tried both the Misugaru Bingsoo and the Strawberry Ube Bingsoo. I absolutely loved that you can customize your bingsoo with any of their homemade ice cream flavors, and you can even choose between a cup or a bowl. The bingsoo is made with incredibly creamy shaved milk ice, topped with generous scoops of their homemade ice cream and delicious toppings. It was light, fluffy, creamy, and so refreshing. And the ube croffle...I'm still dreaming about it! It was soft, buttery, and crispy all at the same time. It reminded me of a funnel cake topped with ice cream--but somehow even better. It came with the biggest scoop of ice cream, and one thing we noticed throughout our visit was how generous every scoop was. The Asian-inspired ice cream flavors are unlike anything we've had before. Every flavor we tried was rich, creamy, and left us wanting another bite. Our kids absolutely devoured the Oreo ice cream and kept asking for more. This was the perfect family outing. There truly is something for everyone here, whether you're craving ramen, bubble tea, bingsoo, croffles, affogato, or unique homemade ice cream. Next time, I can't wait to try their bubble tea and bring home a few pints of ice cream to enjoy later. The owners were incredibly kind and welcoming, especially to our kids, which made the whole experience even more memorable. We felt so comfortable from the moment we walked in. We'll definitely be back again. Thank you so much for having us!! (I didn't get a chance to take more pictures as our family completely devoured everything so quickly!)

Want to taste a classic Korean childhood favorite? Get a scoop of the misugaru (mixed grain). Inside, you'll find a bright white and yellow interior sure to brighten your day, accented with a rainbow wall of what looks like every type of commercially available Korean instant ramen. And on a drizzly weekend like the one I'm currently experiencing, following the Han River Ramen instructions to make your ramen has got to give a similar refreshing sensation. Also, have you HAD a croffle?

There is plenty of space to run around and it doesn't feel crammed even when they are hosting a birthday party like one today. Check in was easy and the punch card offers a good deal at $100 for 4 weekday and 2 weekend punches. I also scored a $5 discount for becoming a member and another $5 by getting a coupon their website and that made it totally worth it. There is good food selection of pizza, hot dogs, chicken nuggets , popcorn, ice cream and slushies but we don't eat today so I can't comment on quality and taste but hope to be back soon.

There are so many options, activities, and fun things to do that he never knows where to start!

If you create an account, you earn points every visit, which you can later redeem for little "gifts"--such a fun bonus!
