From my observation, the cups were no longer stacked inside of one another; rather, placed side by side on the counter and picked up like that to the back kitchen to be filled. THANK YOU to staff/management who perhaps read my review concerning food safety issues and made the change to safeguard customers' health. Despite the price increase on their Double Matcha ($8), I can now recommend Airoma FV to my friends who are matcha fans.

AAZA is BACK!! AAZA…read moreand I am ultra excited! They are celebrating this weekend with a Grand Opening Special May 17-18 BOGO FREE All Drinks . Their fresh fruit tea and blends are spectacular. Here are some of their amazing must order fruit drinks! Grapefruit Summer Coconut Jackfruit Pandan Mango Coco Pomelo Passion Fruit Orange Avocado Coco Jackfruit I was a huge fan when they opened in Downey. The fruit drinks are still highly addictive! It's really like drinking fruit in a cup. The service is the best to their abilities and staffing. The Teahouse is inside of a spacious banh mi shop. I love the mural to take cute photos. Come and check out this weekend for BOGO FREE DRINKS!

A traumatic experience…read more The shop is a banh mi place that also sells boba drinks called 'Aaza'. The menu makes it seem like they have a large range of drinks, but they actually only have a couple in each category. My sister and I were disappointed to see that they didn't have any flavored teas, which is what we always get. * Mango Coco Pomelo: 8/10 - real mango fruit * Passion Fruit Orange: 7/10 - couldn't taste the passionfruit flavor so mostly orange * Boba: 8/10 - soft and chewy While my sister was waiting in line to order the drinks, my mom needed to use the restroom really badly. However, in order to use it at all, we needed a receipt to prove that we were customers. We're completely fine with that, but there were about 10 people in front of us and the line was not moving at all. We pointed to my sister who was waiting in line and promised to show them our receipt afterwards, but they still wouldn't let my mom use the restroom. How ridiculous. Another thing we found annoying was how they couldn't adjust the drinks. We just didn't want them to add any garnishes or fruit slices to the drink, but they refused. We found it weird considering it would actually SAVE THEM MONEY not having to add it to our drinks, but okay. The layout of the shop itself was also really unusual. Although they have a beautiful mural on the wall, they only had a couple of normal tables and chairs on the right side while the rest of the place was scattered with cheap, plastic, short chairs. I think the goal was to make the customers feel like they were in Vietnam, but it was just uncomfortable. They're definitely way too low for the older adults and I have no idea how anyone wearing a dress would be able to sit down. Considering how easily you can kick the chairs and the 'tables' were just wooden boards on top of the plastic chairs, it's a lawsuit waiting to happen. After waiting for what felt like forever to order, we also had to wait an additional 15 minutes for our drinks. When they finally came, it was only 1 and we had to wait for them to finish the other drink. When it finally came out, they forgot to add the boba that we paid for so we had to wait an additional couple of minutes. We interacted with 3 workers during our visit there and 2/3 of them were rude. They looked like the owners since they weren't wearing the uniforms and hats that the other workers were wearing. I understand that they just opened, but a couple of things to keep in mind when coming to the shop: - You need the receipt in order to use the restroom - Adjustments cannot be made to your drink whatsoever - Seating is very uncomfortable - Waited in line for 20 minutes to order and 15 minutes to pick up our drinks - Owners were rude Don't think we'll be coming back.

Today there seemed to be only one staff member taking orders and making the drinks, but she was very efficient. The cafe is so cute, and the drinks were amazing. I really enjoyed the mirakuru double matcha. I asked for less sweetness and less ice, and it was perfect. The crispy flakes on the top were the perfect addition. The fruity mango matcha latte was good as well and we enjoyed the matcha coco refresher. They do get busy so plan accordingly and be considerate to staff as they're working hard!

I hope the plaza can have other stores that are more bustling because the area is a bit rundown with not much to do, but this spot is a hidden gem. Kind of like family home aesthetic. There is seating inside if u want to eat there, but you can get it to go. We took the tray home and it had lots of nice fresh vegetables. The betel leaf wrapped meat was okay, missing some sort of flavor and on the more neutral chewy side but the roasted pork was so nice and crunchy, not too fatty and the sauce was so yummy Id come again and recommend trying! Especially splitting like 3-4 people if stuffed maybe 2-3. They alsk tried their best to package it well so everything stayed clean and proper on its journey home.

Nearby a fav viet comfort food place (Hien Thành) I frequent, Da Viên stood. I had seen it before but was usually too full to stop by. Well today was the day and they did not disappoint. I told the cashier it was my first time there so I needed guidance on recommendations. I knew I wanted a power punch yet flavorful coffee. She suggested the egg cream or ube cream and I was also eyeing their signature marble drip but she said it was lighter bc there was more milk. She asked if I wanted a sampling, uh YES!! She gave me 2 clean separate spoons so I could savor and discern my selection. The space is thoughtfully curated, modern and clean. Staff is friendly and helpful, service great! It was packed so immediately I knew it had to be good. And the customers were right, the ube cream coffee was magnificent. Suffice to say, I'm coming back!!

When I first walked in, the staff just stared at me while I was trying to figure out how the BOGO promotion worked. I asked if I could order through the kiosk and was told yes, but the promo code didn't redeem at checkout. I ended up waiting while the staff member chatted with some friends who had come in. I completely understand chatting with friends, but as a customer waiting for assistance, it felt unprofessional. I wish she had offered to help instead of simply telling me, "It should work." I still really like the drinks and think this place is underrated, but I was disappointed by the service during this visit. Hopefully this was just an off day, because I've had much better experiences here before.

I got the metal Buddha milk tea at 50% sweet. Drink tasted ok .... Tea strong-ish but it has a weird aftertaste. The drink consistency tasted like a drink you get at a night market or at Quickly. It just didn't taste premium quality. Therefore I would just rate it as average. Personally I wouldn't go back or recommend this place.

Yummy drink with a cute aesthetic!…read more We went last night on a Saturday night to try out this cute place and the drink is nice.
