    Green Milk Tea w/ Boba
    Generous Y.

    3.5 rounded up. Tucked away in the corner of a plaza, there's ample parking and it's a convenient spot post workout or meal. Definitely pricey for what it is. Nearly $7 base prices all around, even for a regular milk tea before any additions. The bright side is that milk substitutions are free including oat milk but that's essentially priced in for all customers, even regular milk enjoyers. Decent amount of seating for conversation. Green Milk Tea w/ Boba - boba was solid, great honey coating. They're a bit of a medium size, smaller than typical boba but cooked well nonetheless. Just less surface area to chew. They respect sugar levels well, 25% sugar was accurate and I was able to taste the green tea slightly. I'd say it's a bit watered down though, the floral flavor is not potent.

    Thai tea

    Thai tea was just okay. The drinks are on the pricier side. However location is convenient and there is parking

    Orange Lemongrass

    Good : Fruit Teas here are my favorite. Orange Lemongrass Tea is refreshing. Lots of seating area despite being a smaller venue. Music is good. Bar like setting. Service is nice. They close late so it's great for a late night snack and drink on the go. Improvements: The place does not have that much outlets. Not ideal for studying. Place is a little sketchy though after 9 PM.

    After a weekend morning workout session, I wanted something sweet to energize me for the rest of the day. Thankfully, there was a milk tea shop right around the corner from the gym! The shop is cutely decorated and when I walked in, some people were hanging out and enjoying the weekend while someone else had their laptop open and was working away. Nice place to spend an hour or two doing whatever you need to do. Hello Tea had an decent selection of drinks, including teas and espresso items. I opted for the brown sugar bubble milk tea as that has been my go-to drink at most places right now. I also ordered the french fries to try out - what better way to reward my gym session than with some deep fried salty goodness! I ordered at the kiosk and my order came out quickly. I didn't interact much with staff, but they seemed nice enough. Overall, I thought the drink was decent - the boba pearls were not the consistency I like and was a little soft while lacking any flavor besides starchy tapioca. The milk tea itself was also less flavorful than I liked. The fries were okay, but not worth the calories. I may stop by again and try another one of their drinks, but I wouldn't come out of my way as there are plenty of other spots that are more to my liking.

    matcha latte

    this place does NOT have good matcha AT ALL. if you cannot make matcha do not put it in the menu if you're going to serve milk with no sweetener. those cute faces should not fool you, my friend and i ordered the SAME drink and one was insanely sweet and one had no sweetness at all and was purely milk. i'm upset we wasted our money on drinks like this, we could've just poured a cup of milk. this purely deserves one star.

    Peach tea

    Very cute store. Service is fast. Peach tea is my favorite, very refreshing with lemongrass. You must try eggroll here, very tasty and crunchy.

    What I ordered vs what I got. It's like ordering from Temu, when you receive it is a whole different item. Not happy.

    Had the Garlic Shrimp over Rice. Garlicky and sweet. Good sized shrimp covered with minced garlic. There were 5 pieces of shrimp in each order. I rolled the shrimp all over the rice to transfer the garlic sauce on to the rice and it made the rice really yummy that you can eat it by itself. This dish reminds me of Oahu's Giovanni's Garlic Shrimp but with less oil. The Strawberry Mango smoothie was good, too. The strawberry flavor is more noticeable flavor than the mango. Staff was nice. Small but clean and cute dining area. Lots of parking space.

    Vietnamese Egg Coffee Sunset Passion Tea

    Finally tried the tea spot that replaced Fit-Tea (oh how I miss this spot). This location has been opened for years and it's right down the street from me but it never caught my eye enough to try it. Decided to give it a go one night since our interests were piqued from always driving by it. We ordered their Sunset Passion and their Vietnamese Egg Coffee. I personally think the Sunset Passion was pretty yummy, it was basically just passion fruit and butterfly pea tea- can't go wrong with that. I asked for less ice but the cup was filled with a lot of ice, I guess inflation is hitting us all. The Vietnamese Coffee's egg cream did not really have any egg taste to it-there wasn't anything special that made it stand out compared to other egg coffees you can find at places like La Ca Phe. I think what threw me off was I asked a question to the cashier whether he knew if the Ube Brûlée drink was basically just an Ube Milk Tea but he had no idea, you would think the person making the drink would know what it's actually made of, haha. He just said it was mixed with water, okay so Ube powder and water, good thing I didn't order that! Overall, I don't think I would come again as none of the menu items stood out to me but it is a nice spot to grab a boba while you charge your Tesla next door.

    Brown sugar milk tea  Very testy

    Love to stop by here in the afternoon for my milk tea ! Brown sugar boba and cream brûlée milk tea

    Strawberry matcha latte  Brown Sugar Matcha

    Ordered a strawberry matcha latte with strawberry jelly and it was delicious! Thought I wasn't gonna like it due to me not liking lattes but definitely ordering again. The service was fast and the place is so hangout coded a go to when wanting to have a drink with friends or alone! Loved that they have a variety of payment methods for those who don't carry one or the other.

    They are located in the Gould Shopping Center with Lion Market Supermarket, near Don's Liquors & Wine. Nice, new decor with a few places to take some good IG photos. Hello Tea Signature 1: Jasmine Tea House mixed served with non-dairy milk. Good tea flavor with creamy texture. Kinda pricey for not having any topping included.

    Thuy D.

    The boba drinks are so good!! Thank you so much for coming out to cater at our school event! We really appreciate your great service and caring for the community!

    My favorite coffee shop in San Jose. I look forward to going every time. All their drinks are…read moreexcellent. I started with the vanilla bean latte with oat milk. Good hot or iced. Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location. The winchester Blvd one has more if that's what you're looking for. Their pastries are also all yummy and they sell their matcha powder for $60 for 100g which is a GREAT price for a great matcha. I would've gate kept this place but everyone already knows about it so I HAVE to show them the love they deserve!!

    Wanted a matcha and a friend recommended this place! Known for their Banana Cream Matcha latte…read more Came here abt 2:30pm on a Friday and it was a full house. There is a bench-like tables with stools and 3 yellow tables for seating. There was limited street parking. Quick and friendly service - basic "what can I get you?" and no convo. I liked the hojicha the most but all drinks were good. Banana matcha was creamy and sweet. Vanilla cold brew was yummy and vanilla was not too overpowering. Would come again to try their pastries, they were allllll out. Order: 1 Matcha Banana Cream $8.50 1 Hojicha Banana Cream $8.50 1 Madagascar Vanilla Cold Brew $5.50
