My new favorite tea spot! Rarely does a tea spot live up to the hype, but Toro tea has done it! We…read morecame in on a Saturday, and surprisingly it wasn't too crowded! Everyone talks about the Popcorn Milktea with Brown Sugar Tapiochi. It sounds a little unusual at first, but it ended up being SO good! The black tea with the buttery popcorn twist somehow works so well together! I usually don't like boba, but I'm a fan of their tapiochi! The texture is soft yet springy, and the best part is, it holds up really well the next day (unlike boba)! We also tried a few other drinks like their Mulberry Oolong with Osmanthus Jelly, Calamansi Oolong, Ember Milktea, and Gardenia Oolong. The Gardenia Oolong comes in a larger glass bottle as a pure tea. We enjoyed all of these drinks as well, but the Popcorn Milktea was our fave!

Having tried their other locations in Chino Hills & Diamond Bar, I had to check this location out…read more First impressions is that their shop is very clean. This shop compared to the other locations is that this shop is more vertical. Parking - Free street parking, no designated parking lot. Staff is quick, friendly, and very casual overall. They'll call out your name when your order is ready, very quick even when it's packed. My go to is always the Popcorn Milk Tea which is a drink that you really can't get anywhere else. Very refreshing and one of their signature and most popular drinks. Highly recommend. My wife usually gets the Cassia but this time around, she tried the Koan-im Oolong Milk Tea which is just another name for tieguanyin or iron buddha type drink. Very refreshing as well and easy to sip. Highly recommend if you want a more floral type drink. Very happy about our experience with Torotea overall, one of the best shops with very high quality drinks. I hope one day they can add drinks with bigger cups, it's just too addicting!

Parking: Same store as factory tea bar so parking is a small lot and some on the street. Usually…read morenot packed as the store is only open part of the day. Interior: Factory tea bar remodel quite a bit so it is a lot more modern and well light. Great studying spot. Wait Time: None as I ordered online. Drinks were ready when I got there. Also was empty mid day. Items Order: Larges 9/10 Egg coffee $7.5 - Coffee was very good, strong, sweet, authentic viet flavor. Egg foam was a solid addition but the egg flavor gets lost when mixed so could use more. 7.5/10 Matcha Einspanner $8 - sweetness was about 50% so could use more. the matcha itself was average, foam was solid and creamy. 8/10 Viet Coffee Einspanner $7.5 - solid viet coffee overall but the foam doesn't do much in my opinion 8/10 Nutty Spice Viet Coffee $7.5 - the pistachio milk added a different taste profile to the coffee which was a nice switch up. Pistachio flavor is definitely strong so get it only if that's what youre looking for.

this place is in combination with the old factory tea bar. pretty empty & probably for a reason :/…read more there is a tiny parking lot & also street parking i ordered the matcha einspanner, the matcha tasted like anything but matcha. i can't even describe what i took a sip of, a combination of slight sourness & super grainy & lots of chunks in the drink.

I ordered 4 coffees and they all come out without label on the cup so if you order a lot to go, be sure to ask which one is which. I ordered large size but the size is like medium size to me. Price is high. Also latte came out without mixing so you have to shake it but again the lid doesn't have lid stopper which I have to asked for that. The Place is small so you are sitting pretty close to other party. Parking is the same parking lot in 168 market so it's challenging sometimes.

Want a Matcha or coffee? This is the best coffee and Matcha place we had found…read more My daughter loves Matcha and her dad loves Coffee. She tried their Banana Matcha and is so good! I tried their Matcha Pandan Bliss. I love the taste because i can really drink out of the really Pandan in the drink and not syrup. Their price is a very fair and worth of trying yourself! I happened to meet the owner there and asked her what makes your Matcha so special and she said she used the finest Premium Organic Matcha in her drinks so customers can taste the difference of the real quality ingredients in the drink. I hardly see out there any coffee or tea shop put so much thoughts for their drinks. This owner really cares not just her business but the quality she puts in the ingredients in her drinks! Their Strawberry Coffee is very delicious too with the little kicks of fruits inside and gives a cool tasteful strawberry favor! Dont believe in me! Go try it yourself and definitely you will give a 5 stars! Not only that , it was a long line but they service very fast ! I love it! We come here when we go visit my mom in San Gabriel! Thanks the owner for so thoughtful and a good service to their clients. Look at the line, especially on a weekend is packed and longline but good thing they service is very fast

It was moderately loud and there was a lot of foot traffic. ordered : (5/5) - The putu: the barista recommended this and I was pleasantly surprised. The Pandan works great with the coffee and it didn't taste too strong. - Putu ayu: it tasted like a fluffy cake with Pandan and coconut. It was good, but nothing spectacular. The other pastries on display also looked delicious! service: (5/5) The place was fairly busy but the barista took their time explaining the menu. parking: (5/5) Large free lot across the street, otherwise street parking. overall: The drink was delicious and I would come back to try others!

Incredible croissants, but slower service in this small bakery…read more The black truffle mushroom danish was exceptional. We came back twice for this specifically. Some imaginative combinations like kimchi bacon garlic roll continue to impress us. For once, the cream puffs tasted exactly as advertised. The black sesame hojicha flavor was bold. Taro salted egg yolk cream was real taro and you can feel the mealy, starchy texture. The tamest flavor was the vanilla bean, and I would say that was most traditional as well. The drinks were okay, felt like a sale of convenience rather than an area of focus. The espresso was more sour than I'm used to, and closer to Korean coffee shops. The pastries are clearly the star of the show of this operation. Located in the apartment building, unclear if parking is free since we usually just street park for free.

Find me a treasure bread coffee shop with good looks and strength online!…read more As soon as I entered the door, I was confused by the box full of puffs and coson fragrance. It was completely a paradise for dessert fans Puff Want their Dong Ding Oolong and matcha puffs Dong Ding Oolong The tea fragrance is particularly strong, not that kind of dead sweet cream. At first, there is a faint oolong tea fragrance in the mouth, and the afterter sweetness is very obvious. After eating, it will not be greasy at all. Matcha Puff The source of happiness of matcha stars , the filling is thick and smooth, with a slight bitter charm and tea fragrance, and it goes well with the crispy puff shell. bread Rose Lychee Raspberry Croffin What is amazing this time is that the rose lychee is praised. The outer layer is crispy and the slag is falling off. The song itself has a rich milky fragrance, with the fragrance of rose and lychee fruit. The sense of hierarchy is particularly rich, which is a taste that will be remembered after a bite. almond cream is also with a strong almond fragrance and silky milk sauce, which is full of aroma but not too sweet. runny yolk kimchi bacon garlic roll can be praised Salty The moment you cut it, the egg yolk slowly flows out, with smoked flavor and garlic cream, salty and fragrant, which is very suitable for brunch. coffee Their latte series is also very good. Hazelnut Latte With the aroma of nuts, the coffee and milk fragrance blend very smoothly. Matcha Latte The tea is rich in flavor, and the taste is silky and smooth. It is not only sweet, and matcha has a strong sense of presence. Black Sesame Latte The aroma of sesame is strong, and it feels like a combination of Chinese dessert and coffee. The more you drink, the more delicious it is. On the whole, whether it is puffs, songs or drinks, it doesn't step on a mine. It's good-looking and delicious. It's very suitable for weekend dates, sister afternoon tea or being alone in a daze Browned is located on the first floor of the one apartment building opposite the Hawaii supermarket. It is very convenient.

I tried their matcha latte with 2% milk (they offer oat milk too) at 70% sweet and a gyokuro milk tea at 70% sweet with lychee jelly and both were very very good! The teas were fragrant and yummy and perfectly not too sweet! They have a few seats inside but it's very limited - they've been around for about 2 years and I hope they get a lot more love soon! Service is very fast and friendly

I don't know if I went on a really off day, but I can't remember the last time I had a milk tea so…read moreoff-putting it went straight in the trash. I was so excited for the gyokuro milk tea because gyokuro is probably my favorite tea, and I can't quite describe what the gyokuro here tasted like. I can say, however, it didn't taste anything like gyokuro. It was weirdly floral, not quite jasmine-like floral, and had a weird and honestly kind of gross flavor I guess is a way to put it. It completely lacked the fresh buttery greens quality of real gyokuro. The jasmine was okay. I gave up on the hojicha without even trying it after everyone else wound up not liking their teas either (they didn't dislike it as much as I did with the gyokuro, it just wasn't great). Reviews seem positive for this place so I dunno what was up with our drinks. While the tea flavor, at least for the jasmine, was strong, it was so strong it tasted almost artificial (compared to similar tea-forward places).

So good!! Stopped by Bopomofo on the way back home to the bay area- and got the bala matcha and…read moredirty matcha. The drinks were so refreshing!! before getting our drinks, staff hand delivered about food, and were so welcoming and nice! For the scallion pancake, I do think it was missing some basil or garlic sauce in the wrap. For mapo tofu, it was well seasoned, and the tots were very crispy!!! I love the addition of the 626 sign and the art inside. I love coming back to support a true asian american spot!!! taiwan represent!!!

I received a message from the management after posting my review about the bitter jasmine tea I…read moreordered at Bopomofo Café. At first, I was honestly worried and thought, "Are they trying to challenge my review?" I usually leave positive reviews, but once I wrote an honest review after being served a completely cold hamburger at another restaurant in Pasadena, and that restaurant filed a complaint that resulted in my review being removed. Because of that experience, I was concerned this might become a similar situation. Instead, they kindly listened to my experience, sent me a thoughtful message, and even invited me back to try the drink again. So, I wanted to post another review because I genuinely appreciated how professionally and graciously they handled the situation. Their response showed care, hospitality, and a sincere desire to improve the customer experience.

By far my FAVORITE donut shop and I love this location!…read more-Donuts aren't too sweet and come in the best flavors. -Aesthetic and vibes are super cute! Small and cozy inside, but has seating. -Staff is friendly and helpful. -Outside plaza is nice and cute to walk around after. This is one of my favorite locations because staff is very nice and helpful and the plaza area where it's located is nice! We always stop by whenever we are in the area and usually find street parking to walk over.

Old Ferry is located in a small plaza with a designated parking lot…read more They have a large selection of donut flavors!! Of the donuts I ordered the stand outs for me were the Butter Pistachio and the Dubai Matcha Donut. The Butter Pistachio is a staple, offering a nutty exterior with a sweet creme filling inside. The donuts are light so you can eat a lot!! I also enjoyed the Dubai Matcha, it wasn't too sweet and had a subtle matcha flavor with a flakey interior to add to the texture. So yummy!!

This particular location though, could use some work with consistency. The selection and quality of pastries and drinks seem to vary throughout my many visits. My top pastries are all of their croissant-like pastries, especially the Pastry Frank (filled with a savory sausage inside) and Mini Strawberry Lemon Cream Croissant (filled with a smooth and tangy lemon cream and fresh strawberries that add a tartness). Both of these have flaky, buttery exterior shells that are wonderful to bite into. For cakes, I love the strawberry soft cream cake. This cake is simple, light, and not too sweet. The thin layers of vanilla, soft cream, and strawberries blend excellently together. I appreciate that they provide free candles with whole cakes. An underrated cake is the green tea roll cake, which is delicious, but not ideal for celebrations.
