    Popcorn Chicken and matcha latte
    Venus A.

    We had group order today at the office trying new boba place. We had matcha latte, amber matcha , mango lychee and coffee coconut. We all have same comments lack of flavor in all our drinks. Matcha is very light can't taste the cream too,and the mango cannot even taste. We enjoyed the popcorn chicken but not the free waffle fries it overly fry so it's hard...

    I walked around this plaza and stumbled across the sign to head towards this boba shop at the back of the plaza. Wanting a pick-me-up I scrolled through their easy to use kiosk and decided on getting an egg waffle for $6.50 and saw that I could add a drink for $3.50. I thought it was great that they would offer combos of snacks and drinks for $10! Their seating area was clean and there were enough spots to sit while waiting for the items to be completed. The staff were very friendly and quick to fulfill the orders as they got them. Once the items came out, they were immediately called. I got my egg waffle within 10 min and it was piping hot! The matcha egg waffle was alright as I feel the outside edges could've been crispier and there could have been a stronger matcha flavor. The taro milk tea was just as expected which was good. I wish the boba pearls could've been cooked a little longer as they were a little hard per my liking. Overall the service was good and the egg waffle and boba were fine. I don't think this location will be one that I frequent but it's not bad! Maybe I'll come to try their other snacks like the popcorn chicken that was also popular.

    Uji Matcha Latte with Boba

    This place is a decent study spot, they have wifi and plenty of seats. Probably because it is a bit hidden in this shopping center. I'd have to say i can definitely taste the matcha in the uji matcha latte. However it is still very milky and I wish they used more matcha. The service was appropriate.

    ordered a matcha latte at the register and he put he down a mango matcha latte which was fine until a very rude young woman told me "next time if you want a matcha latte you should just order it right" and then they gave me the new matcha latte although i picked it up and then the lid exploded open over my hand.

    Vietnamese coffee with a Matcha cloud added Boba!

    Just left the store and these two wonderful young ladies gave excellent customer service! Very respectful and helpful.They had a smile on their face the whole time and it got contagious!Thank you ladies for the recommendations.They gave me a yummy drink!

    Tucked away in marina plaza is this boba shop. We ordered for pick up and it was ready within 15 minutes. They packaged our boba and popcorn chicken very nicely into a little brown bag. They also gave us extra spice powder and salt on the side after I asked. On to the goods! House milk tea boba 3.5/5 Solid milk tea boba. Could be stronger in tea flavor but not too sweet at 50%. The boba was soft and chewy and the perfect texture. Amber ice milk boba 1/5 This is WAY too sweet. Tastes like pure sugar water and doesn't help that the boba is also sweet. Unfortunately you can't control the sweetness so we will not be getting it again. Popcorn chicken 3.5/5 Solid popcorn chicken. Chicken was still juicy and loved being able to put extra spice and salt on it ourselves. The oil or chicken tastes not as fresh as it could be though however. Overall, I would come back and try other teas as it's convenient but I wouldn't go out of my way to try this place.

    One of many Mr. Green Bubble stores in the chain, but this spot has a lot of good seating. One orders at Snackpass kiosks (or on the app) and the prices are fairly reasonable. I've had a few drinks where the tea is a little watered down, but I appreciate that it's not too sweet (although I always order at 25% sweetness). Their boba/pearls are consistently chewy and last, surprisingly overnight once. I also like that they use a non-dairy creamer. Fast experience and their basil popcorn chicken is also a gem.

    I go here alot and I got free boba from Snackpass. If u live here and always buy boba from here, use it!! I'm not a random sponsor or anything, I'm just happy I got free boba.

    Matcha Green Milk Tea and Osmanthus Oolong with boba
    Sophia C.

    3.5/5 Matcha green milk tea 6.5/10 - where's the matcha? LOL - tastes like a jasmine milk tea - more milky than tea flavor Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea with Boba 7/10 - floral taste which is to be expected - the tea flavor just isn't there for me - more like osmanthus milk but honestly don't hate it - boba was nice and chewy At first we couldn't find the store but it's located behind the pho place! It's a hole in the back of all the restaurants. We ordered at a self serve kiosk at the entrance so I can't speak on the service. This place was okay but nothing impressive. If I really wanted boba and didn't want to drive anywhere else...I wouldn't be opposed to coming back hahahaah. PS: DONT USE THE HAND SANITIZER!! it is the most foul smelling alcohol scent that doesn't go away :(

    Momocha Black Milk Tea
    Alli W.

    We came by on a Sunday afternoon and the store was rather empty so we didn't have to wait to order and receive our drinks. It's pretty spacious inside with a few tables available to sit and has big windows for plenty of natural lighting. We ordered through kiosks and received our drinks after so there was almost no interaction with staff. The guy who handed our drinks to us was nice though. Drinks: 5/10 Momocha - Matcha + crème brûlée with regular sweetness. Expected this to be sweet but it was rather bland and very icy so after all the ice melted, the drink got even more bland and watery lol. Black milk tea with 75% sweetness - Bland. Couldn't taste black tea at all. Boyfriend felt like he was drinking an extremely watered down undetectable tea.

Make sure you put your name down on the wait list as soon as you can, as this restaurant will fill up super fast and the wait can get very long - often well over an hour at peak times.

Chicken was nice and crispy and the croffles weren't dry or soggy, but the perfect in between. We liked that it came with both a savory sauce and syrup. I'd definitely return to try other things sometime.

I went on a Saturday at noon and there was just one couple dining; when I left, there were 4-5 more groups. The inside of the restaurant looked aesthetically pleasing. The bathroom was quite old but clean. One of the 2 dispensers was out of soap, which I had hoped they would check as part of the restaurant opening and closing procedures. Our waiter was very friendly throughout the meal and offered food suggestions for us to consider. Beef pancake roll - unique seasoning. I liked how they included shredded lettuce for that crunchy texture. It was wrapped in green onion pancake, so it was a bit oily and required some chewing. My dad didn't care for this. I initially thought this isn't bad but by the end of eating my half, I was ok not ordering this again. I think it's worth trying once. Beef stew noodle soup - beef was flavorful but I needed to chew it a bit, so if you have elderly loved ones with dentures, keep that in mind! Noodles were al dente. My mom didn't like how the portion is very small. Pork & crab meat XLB (Xiaolongbao, soup filled dumplings) - First thing I thought when the server placed the bamboo steamer down on the table was, 'wow, these are SO small'. But regardless, I could definitely taste the crab, and the broth was flavorful and plenty. If I were to dine here again, I would order this. Chicken & vegetable boiled wontons in chicken soup - The skin of the wontons was springy and unique. The broth had sesame oil but otherwise was pretty mild/bland. My mother liked the broth from the beef stew noodle soup more. Pan fried chive dumpling - contained egg, glass noodles, and a lot of garlic and chives. Very yummy and would get this again. Pork & shrimp potsticker - was juicy. The skin a little thick. They came with a tiny side of sweet, sour, spicy pickled veggies. I thought this dish was mediocre. High tail shrimp & pork steamed dumplings - The pork was dense, which wasn't necessarily bad. The dumpling was slightly juicy but wasn't broth-filled. My mom didn't care for this dish. Overall, I would rate this restaurant a 3.5/5 but will round it up. My mom thought the food was quite mid and admitted it as such to the waiter after we paid the bill. I'm honestly not sure if I would return, given all the wonderful other cuisines/choices here in the downtown area - perhaps if I'm craving chive dumplings or crab dumplings again.

They did offer slightly more variety than I'd expect from this kind of restaurants. I think it's alright but probably not worth paying for parking in San Mateo for this. What I mean is that if you happen to be in the area then it's fine to dine here but probably not worth coming here just for the restaurants as there are alternatives outside of San Mateo where you don't have pay for parking. However the reason I gave 4 stars is that they give you enough meat on the noodle to make it slightly better deal even though everything in the Bay Area is overpriced. The service is really efficient and friendly enough. The restaurant is small and long) do I wouldn't suggest larger parties.
