The employees were very helpful in describing what some of the different bobas were and also asked for sweetness level in our teas. This is huge as I would prefer my tea unsweet and my children like a semi sweet. It was nice to be able to customize that. We enjoyed green tea with brown sugar boba and mango tea with mango boba. Overall a great place we will return to!

Everything tastes super fresh, the flavors are unique compared to a lot of other Chinese spots around town, and somehow it is always consistent every single visit and that helps it also feel like comfort food. The staff has always been super kind to me, and even when they're busy the food still comes out delicious and hot. It's definitely on the pricier side, but honestly this is one of those places where you can taste what you're paying for. A couple things to know before going: the building can get a little warm during hotter months, and parking is kind of chaotic. There are only a couple of pickup spots up by the doors, otherwise you're usually parking along Zona street parking or trekking over from near Dick's. Still absolutely worth the little walk once the food hits the table.

We typically order takeout from the Zona Rosa location, but last night we decided to dine in for the first time in many years. We arrived around 6:00 p.m. on a Friday, and the restaurant was only about a quarter full, so seating was quick and easy. We ordered several of our favorite starters, including wonton soup, crab rangoon, lettuce wraps, and spring rolls. Everything arrived at the same time, which made for a great spread to enjoy together. A few things stood out about the experience. While we were greeted promptly, it took about 10 to 15 minutes to receive our cocktails, and they were delivered by someone other than our server. The same thing happened with our second round. Given that the restaurant was not busy, the delay felt unusual. Our server had an impressive ability to remember orders without writing anything down. She got all of the starters correct, but unfortunately forgot to place our entrée. Our General Tso's chicken was not submitted until we were nearly finished with the starters, which led to a longer wait than expected before it arrived. As we were leaving, several staff members thanked us for dining with them, which was appreciated. It did feel a bit odd, however, as they were eating their own meal at the same time. Overall, the food remains very good, but the service issues made the experience less enjoyable. Next time, we will likely stick with takeout or delivery.

Poor staff member was all alone in the back taking orders from big parties, call-in orders, and app orders. He was working non-stop and I don't think that is a great thing about this place, since from the looks of it they can afford to hire more workers given the steady stream of customers (sometimes not so steady and sometimes just heavy). But the ice cream is freshly made and everything tastes as it should -- strawberry ice cream tastes like fresh strawberries, flavors are super creative, and the sundaes have a mix of the flavors with special toppings like nuts and cream. The place also has little games to keep the kids busy and just a nice variety of ice cream, boba, shakes, and drinks. Overall, we can see why our family highly recommended this place to us and why it's a staple in the area. The ice cream is amazing!

Then as we were putting our coats on and cleaning up our table to leave, he turned the lights off on us and left us in the dark, even though there were still employees there behind the counter working. When we said, 'We're putting our coats on, you don't have to turn the lights off on us, that's really uncalled for,' he responded curtly with, 'I already told you to leave,' followed by a cold look. He treated us in about the most unfriendly, unprofessional, harsh way you could treat polite customers who frequent here. There is a right way and a wrong way to go about letting customers know the establishment is closed and they would like you to leave. Especially after we spent $18 on 3 drinks (one was a small toddler drink). This was the very wrong, rude, unprofessional way to go about it. He was very cold and short in the manner he spoke to us and treated us, even in looks he was giving us. It was like he was taking his bad day out on us or something. If you're going to work in customer service, especially at a manager level, this is completely unacceptable, inappropriate, unprofessional behavior and a very rude way to treat loyal customers. We will never come back here because of his behavior, and we'll find another place to meet and have coffee with our friends. There are plenty of coffee shops where managers don't treat their customers this poorly.

Every single person that works in here is sweet as can be, but Theo has to be one of my favorites! He is always in such a positive mood if I come by in the mornings and it always puts a smile on my face when hes in the window. The owners are also extremely kind, and I always enjoy their happy vibes when I come by before work. My favorite drinks have to be their seasonal christmas cookie latte, the orange cardamom latte, and the Fresh Thai Tea with some espresso added!

The crew is always kind and leaves you alone to enjoy your tea in a quiet, quaint teashop. The decor and media around the shop from the TVs to the music to the games make it feel relaxing and fun. They also have quite a few different desserts like macarons that will not disappoint you. The outside seating is nice when the weather is cooperating and the speed of service is exactly what you expect for custom drinks. No more, no less. They also pack everything perfectly for delivery or takeout. My orders always arrive looking great, tasting great, and feeling mindfully prepared.

I finally had an extra moment and had been craving a boba tea so I stopped in. There was a line but it moved quick. It gave me just enough time to figure out what I wanted. The service was friendly and it was super fast. Under five minutes. I didn't even have time to really look around but they do have loose tea and different tea accessories that you can buy. I've considered reducing my coffee intake and swapping it with tea and I feel like this would be a great way to experiment and try different teas. If you don't like boba tea they also have smoothies. I've never tried them so I can't really say how they are. The boba tea is excellent. On my last visit I ordered a Thai iced bubble tea. But I've done mango and a few other flavors in the past.
