They also let you add toppings like sauces, candy and other stuff. There is nowhere to sit inside at all. Because it was hot and there's no indoor seating all the outside seating which wasn't a lot from their establishment was taken. They are next to the fountain with a bunch of benches and seating around it but it was all pretty occupied. Considering there's not a lot of tables for patrons to sit, i think the ones they do have should be wiped down more routinely. Overall pretty mediocre for the price. If you're near maybe stop by for some ice cream but in my opinion, not worth a trip out of the way.

There are a ton of great options here, and a lot of the drinks have really interesting names with stories behind them, many inspired by his own customers. Tony actually took the time to tell us some of those stories, which made the whole experience feel a lot more personal and memorable. The ambiance is really chill too. Everything feels clean and well kept, with Buddhist statues throughout the space, good vibes, and a bunch of cool collectibles you can actually buy, including Labubus and other Pop Mart-style items. It gives the place a lot more personality than your typical coffee or tea shop. He's the type of owner who would take really good care of his customers and make sure people leave happy. You can tell he's genuinely dedicated to what he does, and the fact that Saltea is open late makes it even better. Definitely my number one coffee and tea spot around here. Great drinks, great atmosphere, and an owner who genuinely cares about the people who come in. Hermés

It was definitely noticeable in the soft serve and made everyone else around us notice it too. The soft serve was smooth and creamy, not icy like cafeteria quality soft serve. The durian flavor was custardy as if it was still in fruit form. It didn't taste like there was only durian essence mixed in, it tasted like there was actually durian blended into a smooth cream that is then frozen and swirled into this nice frozen delight. The ambiance of the shop was cool too. It had a giant mural like painting of a big soft serve in a cone for photo ops and the colors were painted light with blues and pastels for a calming vibe inside the shop. I must come back and try their waffles next time!
