    We tried the yuzu dragonfruit slush, yuzu dragonfruit jasmine tea, strawberry blended, matcha blended and the hojicha latte. dragonfruit slush and hojicha latte - 10/10, the slush was very refreshing and a good dragonfruit taste; while the hojicha latte was strong and had a good roasted tea flavor. strawberry blended, matcha blended, and yuzu dragonfruit jasmine tea - 6/10, strawberry blended was just average; matcha blended tasted more like vanilla and lacked the matcha taste; yuzu dragonfruit jasmine tea was very watered down (the taste of it wasn't too bad though). The inside was very cute and had a very clean look. They had two kiosk on the side if you want to order on your own or you can order with someone helping you. We ordered thru kiosk, so not too much interaction with staff. Drinks did come out fast though! Overall, decent place for drinks.

    The last time I visited was around when they first opened. I came back today and love that their current menu has kid-friendly options with no caffeine. The yuzu dragon fruit matcha cold brew was refreshing. Noted that they don't use stamp cards and they don't carry the spam rice balls at this location. Service was quick and friendly. Looking forward to coming back.

    Came on a Sunday afternoon, and it wasn't too busy. It was cute and decorated inside with a chic modern vibe. Employees were helpful in providing recommendations. The menu is extensive. I tried the salted caramel banana matcha latte with coconut milk. It was good! The banana wasn't too sweet and the matcha wasn't too overpowering. It was a good balance. I also had the salmon rice ball, which was fresh but ok. It tasted more like tuna. I'd come back to try other flavors.

    2nd time in while visiting the outlet. I had the passion fruit refresher this time around and lacking flavor for me. Matcha on the other hand was ok.

    I was hanging out with my good friend and we wanted something to drink after our lunch date at Malatown. Upon scouring reviews, Junbi came recommended! I was immediately drawn to the guava matcha, as that is definitely a flavor that I've never had before, and I was very intrigued. It turned out to be the perfect refreshing choice on a warm March afternoon. The staff were friendly, and you can either order on the kiosks or with a staff member. We chose to order via the kiosks. Our drinks were made in what seemed like seconds. However, they were still extremely good quality and the guava puree was delicious. The matcha was excellent, and very smooth. I asked for light ice and they delivered. I did not get a chance to try my friend's drink but she said it was her new favorite tea shop, and that she would be back. I will also be back for sure, since I'm in the area relatively often. Junbi has a ton of unique drinks even for those who aren't matcha lovers, so you are bound to find a drink for your palate.

    This is a cool spot to try a match and they have multiple options for add-ons and inclusions. The staff was extremely friendly and patient and I really enjoyed the guava matcha half sweetens with light ice and oat milk! They have a rewards program but it is email based so you will need to enter it in the system once you complete your purchase. I also grabbed a strawberry matcha with inclusion and add-ons and it too was a refreshing treat to bring to a friend!

    Stopped at this strip mall to charge our EV and we're very happy to find Junbi Matcha & Tea. We got their black tea with oat milk and their yuzu green tea. They customize the drinks to your sugar and ice preference. However, they did recommend a little ice in my drink which I generally don't prefer. All in all, a solid stop to get your tea fix!

    Matcha store across the SF premium outlets by the Tesla chargers. Chain restaurant but the matcha didn't hit at this location. Currently with BT21 collab. Ordered via kiosk. Some seatings inside. They have a restroom. I got the BT21 galaxy matcha with black sesame and ube. Strong ube and black sesame flavor. Not much matcha flavor with those combinations. On the sweeter side from the ube. The sea salt caramel banana match was much more balanced and was tasty. Has a nice banana and Carmel flavor.

    Happy one year anniversary, Junbi! We stopped in on their one year anniversary to enjoy the banana sea salt series, and the usual favorite - strawberry matcha latte. And, I can never leave without the delicious salmon rice balls whenever that yummy food is available. Prior to that, I've been loving the BT21 drinks. As always, service was fast and super friendly.

    Delicious matcha! Went in on a late Saturday afternoon and there were a decent amount of people there. It was relatively easy to find parking in their parking lot. There are 2 self-serve kiosks on the side and also a person that will happily take your order. We got a strawberry matcha and a chrysanthemum tea. The total came out to be $14.25 which I think is on the more expensive side. We got everything regular iced and regular sugar and no toppings. Strawberry Matcha (8/10): I can taste the earthiness of the matcha and the strawberry puree(?) adds a nice tartness when it's all combined. I think this was a nice balance and it wasn't too sweet which I personally enjoy. Chrysanthemum Tea (8/10): This was really enjoyable. You can taste the actual tea and it wasn't doused in sugar.

    Guava matcha latte
    Surge C.

    Tried Junbi for the first time and thought it was decent. I do appreciate them doing a double shot of matcha with their guava matcha latte, which helped the matcha flavor come out a bit more. If you like sweet, fruit-forward matcha mixes, this is a good spot. I probably would only come here if I had a dessert craving.

    Last minute Christmas shopping means a matcha or boba stop for me hehe. We were headed to the Livermore outlets and saw there was a junbi across the street so we decided to check it out. It's super cute inside, we were greeted right away by the friendly staff, and there was no wait. I was really excited to try the matcha latte with oatmilk but i was pretty disappointed. You could barely taste the matcha. It tasted like a slightly sweet oatmilk with a hint of matcha. I've heard good things about their matcha so I may come back again to give it another shot! Maybe it was just an off day! I did get the little matcha tin to bring home to make my own, and that was really good. Didn't taste too grassy or bitter-- it was pretty smooth.

    I got the guava matcha latte, and I really enjoyed it! The workers here are very friendly. There is parking in a plaza, and it's directly across the street from the outlets. Their seasonal drink options sound good as well. I would come back again!

Been patronizing H.L. for years on & off, wanting a change from their signature salted cheese drink. The associate tried to interest me in various drinks. decided to look over them carefully myself. Choose one that was coincidentally on their top 10 list: D6. Pd. Got drink within 7 minutes. Offerings: salted cheese, milk tea, classic brewed tea, fruit tea, lemon slushy, blended whole lemon, squeezed lemon, fruit smoothie, Yakult, waffles. Sips: Ube milk tea with taro puff cream & boba (7.25) no sugar, less ice. -less sugar right call as Ube & boba quite sweet. Should have picked no ice as ice diluted drink. -associate gave me a small taste of what I ordered before I got it. Perfecto! Great service! *various ingredients blends together to make an unique drink. 4.5 stars Worthy! Service, quality & quantity fantastic & reasonable. Will try another from top 10 list in future.

There was only one relatively young person working (or visible at least) and it seemed like she hated her job. She was sitting at the table on her computer for a couple minutes before coming up to take our order, and didn't really talk at all. I think this was what they call "Gen Z stare" Terrible drinks and service, we all had to throw it away, and we hate wasting food. Multiple drinks in the trash hurts to see. Maybe I'll give it another shot in like a year or more. I got a response from Cindy, not sure if this is a joke lol, must be a copied and pasted response, or she responded to the wrong person. Or maybe it's sarcasm. Here's what she said, also included in the screenshot: Hi Joshua, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for your continued support of Q-Tea! Your kind words truly made my day. It is always a pleasure to see you, and I'm so happy that you feel welcomed each time you visit. Building relationships with our customers is one of the most rewarding parts of being a small business owner. Thank you for your compliments about our drinks, food, and customer service. We work hard to provide the best quality possible, and it means so much to know that our efforts are appreciated. We're honored that you consider Q-Tea the perfect place to gather with friends, and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon with another smile! Cindy

    My kids and I have been coming here for over a decade! With so many boba places in the Trivalley…read morearea, that really says something! Even when passing through (we don't live in the area anymore), my son said to me: "Do you want to get boba? Let's go to that CUTE place in East Dublin... what is the name?" I was thinking too... it was pretty funny that then it dawned on us! Ummmm...QT!!!! (Yup, Q-Tea is appropriately named!!!) It was the typical Dublin Summer temperature of 100+ degrees, so I got my favorite Q-Tea drink: matcha red bean slushie (50% sweetness). My son tried a new flavor, which he loved: passion fruit slushie (80% sweetness, I think?) with boba. The owner was, and has always been, so friendly and sweet. I always remember her! We love coming here. I've also thrown "boba parties" for my children's birthdays before, so Q-Tea was my go-to place, even when new boba stores opened up who fried their bobas, offered snazzy weird popping flavored bobas, etc. Q-Tea makes classic boba drinks, is always consistently good, and has great customer care because it is run by the owner who is a kind lady. Shop small! Thanks, Q-Tea, for making the Dublin community sweeter for so many years. :)

    I've been meaning to write this review since July 2021--at least, that's how old my first set of…read morephotos is from when I intended to post a review. But years later, Tasty Pot at Ulferts Center is still one of our reliable go-to spots in Dublin. My wife usually orders the Beef Hot Soup, while I go for the Taiwanese Supreme Spicy Hot Soup - both with a side of rice and either black or green tea during lunchtime. Both pots are consistently delicious, satisfying, and served steaming hot - the kind of hot that clears your sinuses and makes your nose run. For reference, we order them at the "medium" spice level, so either we're weak sauce or they really are that hot and spicy. I especially like that Tasty Pot's meals are complete individual servings. You get the full hot-pot experience without having to fetch ingredients, wait for a communal pot to cook, or coordinate a family-style meal. It's easy, convenient, and perfect when everyone just wants to dig into their own bowl. Service has always been fast, and the food comes out piping hot and ready to enjoy. The wait staff also checks in to see whether you are running low on soup and need a top-off. They also have a rewards program that earns you points toward a free hot pot; it has changed over the last couple of years from a "buy seven, get one free" setup to a points-based system - either way, it's a nice bonus. If you're craving comforting Taiwanese-style hot pot in the Dublin, Pleasanton, or Livermore area, this is an easy five-star choice.

    My sister recommended Tasty Pot because she said it was well known for its soup and good service,…read moreso we decided to give this location a try. Unfortunately, our experience at the Dublin location was extremely disappointing. We visited on August 8, 2026, at around 8:45 PM. We are a family of 9 and were just passing through the area on our way to our hotel. Since the restaurant's website states that the closing time is 9:30 PM, we thought we had enough time to have dinner, especially since this was our first time visiting. As soon as we arrived, however, we were told by the server that 8:45 PM was the last call for orders. We immediately tried to order as quickly as possible using the online ordering system because we did not want to inconvenience the staff. After placing our order, we were then told that green tea and other teas were unavailable, so all of our drink orders were canceled except for water. We understood that items can sometimes run out, so we let that go. The biggest problem was the service and atmosphere after we received our food. It was very difficult to get the attention of the staff because everyone seemed to be rushing around cleaning. We genuinely felt like we were a burden simply because we were still eating. What was especially inappropriate was that while customers were still dining, the staff began putting chairs up on the tables. I even took a picture because I believe management should be aware of what was happening. If the restaurant is still open and customers are still eating, this is not the kind of atmosphere customers should be subjected to. Even worse, it appeared that the AC was turned off while we were still eating, even though it was not yet closing time. With hot pot already being a very warm meal, we were literally sweating while trying to eat. After a long day of traveling, the last thing we wanted was to feel rushed and uncomfortable during dinner. We tried not to make a big issue out of it because we were tired and simply wanted to finish our meal and get to our hotel. But honestly, this type of service is unacceptable. I don't know if this is how every Tasty Pot location operates, but if this is specific to this branch, management really needs to address it and properly train the staff on how to treat customers who are still dining during business hours. Unfortunately, this was our first experience with Tasty Pot, and it will most likely be our last. We were hoping to enjoy the food and understand why my sister recommended it, but the poor service and uncomfortable atmosphere completely ruined the experience. With hot pot, the food is already hot enough. There's no need for the customers to leave with a boiling-hot temper because of the service. Very disappointing, and definitely not a place I would recommend based on this experience.
