    D2. Classic Milk Tea
    Cesar A.

    Never will I come to This location. Only had 4 sips of this drink and it's because they fill this drink up with all Ice and they hardly put any milk tea on it. Very disappointed in how they make this drink. Paid more for a full cup of ice rather than a drink...

    A1. Cold Green Tea with Salted Cheese
    Yu W.

    Their salted cheese and tea never disappoint me. I had ordered many times and that's always my to go order at all locations. However, it doesn't seem like the staff likes his job at all, and I am not saying it is his fault. Maybe the pay isn't good, maybe making drinks is tiring, maybe I have an annoying face. I just have to say, the attitude makes me not want to come back to this location anymore. With so many boba shops nearby, I will go to a different place with an average or even above average service.

    A2. Cold Black Tea with Salted Cheese

    I've been a regular of happy lemon for as long as I can remember them being open. They've opened many locations throughout the years and I'd probably almost always stop by if it's around. My go to drink is always the A2 Black tea with salted cheese. It's simple yet so good every time. I've tried numerous drinks and teas and there isn't one that I wouldn't recommend but everyone has their go to drink and that so happens to be mine! This place has the best salted cheese topping. I went on a random afternoon because it's continently right by the post office. The guy who took my order was kind and made ordering go smoothly. I like how they have tables outside to enjoy the nice day. The place is small but it gives cute boba shop.

    Happy lemon is always good. They were one of the first places to do the salted cheese cream on top of the drinks. They used to have more desserts but now they only have the bubble waffle. Staff is always very friendly.

    D5. Boba Milk Tea with Puff Cream
    Emily W.

    Pretty busy on a Monday evening (Memorial Day). They didn't have boba available right away, so they asked each person if they wanted to sub for a different topping, or wait an extra 15 ish minutes. I ordered a boba milk tea with puff cream. No complaints! The puff cream was such a good addition to the milk tea. Also the large size was the only option on the kiosk - would be nice to be able to pick sizes. Plenty of parking in lot, a few tables inside but not a super big store.

    D10. Mango Orange Milk Tea (Only Large Size)
    Liya K.

    This was the perfect spot to hit before a road trip to LA. I got the iced mango orange milk tea with crystal boba which was perfect for the heat. The drink looked so vibrant thanks to the orange peels. Also tasted so refreshing and sweet even at 50% sugar. I highly recommend. We ordered online to go and the service was quick. The store is cute and very clean with a few seats.

    Another great location of happy lemon, next to the popular burger place St John and Costco Lawrence. Kiosk order is easy and quick. Dragon fruit with salted cheese and boba milk tea, both were great

    This is 10/10 the best boba near Sunnyvale area. The classic tea is done to perfection. The one service member was nice and quick at getting things done under five minutes. The place is super trendy, yellow, and modern aesthetic. Great space outside for lots of seating.

    D6. Ube Milk Tea With Taro Puff Cream and Boba (Only Large size)
    Meeta A.

    3.5 stars 3.5 stars Was craving for boba and thought ill take my first trip to Happy Lemon. Went there at around 5pm, the place was crowded. Theres only one ordering screen inside to a queue formed (quite long) for placing order. It felt like the staff was overworked, they just did their job quietly and non stop, no time for greeting or even eye contact. There's dine tables/seats available. I places the order online for Ube milk tea with taro puff cream and boba after seeing the reviews online. It's only available in large size. I opted for zero sugar. The drink was heavy on the stomach, i could skip dinner and it was delicious. Even though I selected 0 sugar it was still sweet, perfect sweetness for me. Honestly its just bring me how one single drink costs almost 9 dollars but i still spend it!

    Uneven and undercooked
    Shilah A.

    Avoid this location (when ordering the bubble waffles). I am a fan of Happy Lemon and they're usually consistent across the locations I've been at. Ordered a jasmine green tea with boba and the original waffles. The boba didn't have any flavor; I'm guessing they don't add honey to it, if any at all. Drink itself was standard. The bubble waffle came out cold and undercooked! Plus, there were some unknown black pieces in it? I'm not sure if it's chocolate or something, but I wouldn't trust a dish that had ingredients that don't belong? I've never had anything else in my egg puffs and it wasn't part of the filling either. Other Happy Lemon stores have always had crisp and perfectly cooked waffles. We were the only customers during this time too. Not a great experience.

    Mango jasmine tea with mango boba

    We ordered their mango jasmine tea with mango boba and original boba to share. It was great and we enjoyed the treat! :)

    Inside seating

    We were needing some boba this week, so I decided to pick a new spot from the norm in the area and of course, Happy Lemon is a standard in our old spot so I figured, it was time to drop by. In short, pretty much in line with other Happy Lemon spot, but bummed to hear that lychee jello has been discontinued, but great service with good drinks. L O C A T I O N Happy Lemon is located in one of several plazas along Lawrence Expressway. This one is in the same plaza as St. John's and Central Computers. The parking lot is relatively small, but at the time I went, there was available parking. I N S I D E It's not a huge spot, but they do have seating inside if you want to hang out, but again not huge and it's the Happy Lemon yellow inside. M E N U Has your standard milk teas, they specialize in cheese foam as well as lemonades. Toppings are fairly standard and now super standard as they stopped selling lychee jello not to be mistaken for lychee jelly. Two very different toppings. One is more jello/pudding like so soft and easy to eat versus the lychee jelly which you do need to chew. I got a oolong milk tea with lychee jelly no sugar no ice. Pretty good pretty standard. Solid choice. S E R V I C E The person who helped me order my drink was lovely. Though unfortunately she didn't catch my change from lychee jelly to grass jelly but it's all good, I could totally understand where the communication criss crossed as I was all sad about lychee jello. Easily got my drink in a good short amount of time. Easily paid by card. O V E R A L L Good solid boba option in the area. Definitely more of a grab and go spot. Service was lovely. Drink solid. Will come back for sure as an option when I'm in the area.

    H5. Mango Lemon Slushy(only large size), G3. Mango Yakult Smoothie, D6. Ube Milk Tea With Taro Puff Cream and Boba (Only Large size)
    Steffany I.

    Stumbled upon this location when were trying to find some boba. There was plenty of parking spaces and no wait inside the store. The menu had your standard fruit and milk teas. The did have some special items, like their fresh lemon drinks, slushies, and salted cheese series. Some drinks you could adjust the ice and sweetness. The staff was friendly and helped answer some of my questions. We got a couple of drinks, including the mango lemon slushy, and mango yakult. The slushy was a little more sour than I thought but still good. The mango yakult smoothie was definitely our favorite. Overall pretty decent drinks and good service.

The order was ready 10 minutes earlier than scheduled. Located in Arques Plaza, next to Metro Burger and Subway, Tong Sui sits prominent. The parking spaces closest to Tong Sui is ample. The pick up area and register is visible immediately upon entering. The cashier shared a friendly, warm smile and assisted with my pickup order immediately. The line upon entering had about ten people waiting to order around 6:30PM on a Saturday. Our order consisted of: 1 - Peach & Lychee Cheezo ($9.95) with honey boba ($1) 1 - Black Sesame Hojicha Latte (8.50) with honey boba ($1) 2 - Osmanthus Oolong Tea Latte ($5.95) with honey boba ($1) 1 - Mango Sticky Rice Coconut Pudding ($10.95) Verdicts: Osmanthus Oolong Tea Latte - very nutty and earthy flavor profile, at regular sweet I feel like it's too sweet but it was purchased for my daughter and husband. My daughter is not a fan even though she liked this tea at a different shop with the same selection options. I like it, Even with the prominent profile, the flavors are true to its name, well balanced and complex. If you are not into a strong earthy flavor, this is not for you - I personally enjoy it. Peach & Lychee Cheezo - this is the drink that sold me on trying Tong Sui. Blended peach skin on with Cheezo foam I have never had at regular sweet is not sweet. Think drinking a ripe piece of fruity, juicy and oh so satisfying. That is this drink. My daughter enjoyed it so much it is now hers. I at least got two sips. This is definitely a fan favorite because my husband wished he had chosen this one. Black Sesame Hojicha Latte - Hojicha is one of my favorite teas, never had it paired with black sesame and definitely never had peanuts added. This flavor profile intrigued me so much so I had to try it. At less sweet it is still slightly sweet and still perfection. The peanuts give it a nutty flavor profile with the roasted green tea and black sesame adding an additional nutty, smoky, earthiness. I love! The drink is creamy, rich, nutty and perfect. Think a luscious blended black sesame shake, so good! Mango Sticky Rice Coconut Pudding - served as my breakfast this morning. Kept refrigerated, it was perfect the next day. The mango tastes fresh, bright and sweet. The puddling was creamy, thick, coconut forward and light. The sticky rice complimented and balanced out the other two ingredients, making it the perfect bite. Whether I was eating the mango solo, the pudding with the mango or all three at once, each bite was truly satisfying. It was very filling. Would I return, most definitely when I am back in the area. Wish the other locations were closer to where I frequent. Other locations include Campbell, Milpitas, Palo Alto, Valley Fair and Redwood City.
