Employees do an incredible job of preparing ingredients, taking orders and serving drinks, all within the small tiny square box.

Boba and coconut jelly have always been constantly good. They allow adjusting sugar and ice levels. After they introduced the rewards, we have been getting $5 towards drink for spending $50. Today we got an offer to get $5 off for a second drink, so we got both for less than $8.

Craved some frozen yogurt and came across this place via Yelp search..I thought it would be a fun…read moreexperience for my 5 year old who's never served frozen yogurt himself PLUS a choice of toppings. Initial thought of the place- bright and small. Not inviting people to stay with only two metal tables and 4 chairs at each table. Ice cream flavors were "meh" at most. Typical chocolate, vanilla, twist, coconut, cookies n cream, pistachio, and some pumpkin flavors for the season. Two kids "working" at the register - both on their phones with AirPods in. I wasn't sure if we served ourselves with the toppings since some of it I had to reach my hand further back to try and grab. Surprised I even needed anybody there to assist me with payment. Ice cream itself was mediocre. Frozen yogurt was whatever and not as creamy as I normally would've like it. Melted way too fast (maybe cuz it was toward the end of the night)? I wish I took a picture of everything but between two ice cream cups, coming out to $15, definitely wasn't worth the drive or the price.

The store has certainly aged and the signs are easily seen on the walls and floors of the store. There are few high chairs and few tables inside the store. There are couple of self ordering kiosk as well. I ordered the honey lemonade with boba. The friendly barista prepared the drink within a minute. The tea had good taste, also got the hint of citrus and sweetness of the honey. The bobas were better than the drink, very soft, chewy and not overly sweet.

Their bubble tea is absolutely delicious and fairly priced. Their poke bowl has fresh ingredients. You get to customize your poke bowel on a paper, instead of having to pick right away in front of the counter. I was able to Google some of the ingredients to see what I would like in my bowel. I love their ramen! Now that we live a little father away, we still come here just for the ramen. I love the decor of the place. Brightly lit relaxed atmosphere. The staff are super friendly. They give you some suggestions if you ask for any input in what to order.

I LOVE Waikiki Poke!! I've been a long time fan of Waikiki Poke & Ramen as an UberEats customer and…read morehave ordered more than a dozen times! So when an opportunity came up to meet in the vicinity of this restaurant, I brought myself and two guests to experience the poke in person. It did not disappoint! Nestled among a smaller shops in a strip mall off of Market Street (off of North 5th Street), Waikiki Poke & Ramen is a place definitely worth stopping by. There's ample parking in the surrounding area of the strip mall so it's a small walk towards the restaurant. Once you enter you are greeted with an Instagram-able wall, with various colored posted that guests can write and post messages. It was fun reading through them and leaving some as well in the end. The restaurant is small, quaint, and cafeteria style, the counter where the Poké bowl ingredients are visible is well organized and clean. A nice selection of Japanese teas and other drinks are available to enjoy with the meal as well as bottled water. The price is on point for Poké bowl of their size and the Sashimi-ed raw fish, and the vegetables were all fresh and delicious! My guests enjoyed it well. I was so excited to visit the place then I couldn't help myself by letting them know how much I enjoy their food and how many times I've ordered online. I wasn't sure if they understood me because they didn't seem very interested? In any case I still enjoy the food, but I think it might be better to just order it online for me as it is quite a far distance for me to drive to enjoy it in person. Overall, we were able to enjoy our meal slowly as we had much catching up to do.. The shop was not particularly busy during its lunch hour so the food was ready quite quickly, which was impressive. I would rate this as 5.0 for the food but 4.5 for the customer experience aspect. It is a recommendation that they at least acknowledge or interact with people who expresses positively for enjoying their food. Because this is not an open food court situation and it is in a restaurant even after you paid for the food and sat down and eat it it would be nice for them to also interact in some capacity just felt a bit standoffish in my opinion.

10/10 -- My New Go-To Sushi Spot!…read more I've been on the hunt for a new go-to sushi place since moving to the area, and I've tried plenty of good spots nearby -- but this place absolutely blew me away. Hands down, the best sushi I've had in a long time (maybe ever!), and that's saying something. From the moment I called in my large order, the experience was seamless. The owner was incredibly kind, got everything 100% right, and made the process so easy. When I walked in, I was immediately struck by how clean and fresh everything smelled -- a great sign. They also offer boba (at a really fair price!) and have fun extras like seaweed snacks and unique chips -- super cute and convenient. But the star of the show is the food. Everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. I ordered for myself, my brother, and my mom after a long morning of errands, and we were all seriously impressed. I'm a huge miso soup fan -- I've tried it at nearly every spot in NJ -- and theirs is officially my favorite. Perfectly balanced and comforting. We had: - Sweet potato rolls, Shrimp California rolls - Spicy tuna, spicy crab, firecracker roll - Spicy yellowtail & regular yellowtail - Clear soup, miso soup, and udon soup Every single bite was fantastic. You could taste how fresh everything was -- we genuinely couldn't believe our luck in finding this gem. The staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive -- truly an A+ experience from start to finish. This will absolutely be a repeat visit for us. If you're in the area and looking for great sushi, you need to make this your next stop. Thank you again for such a perfect lunch -- we'll be back soon! -- Lauren
