Most of the decor here seems lost in translation from this import from Taiwan; however, they are a drink spot that specializes in boba milk teas and fruit smoothies. I got a strawberry smoothie with jellies and a salt cream foam. My wife got the same, but mango. Both of the drinks were upwards of $8. Though expensive, flavor was good and, if you like jellies, they load them up here. If I had a choice, I prefer the offerings at 3CAT in Arcadia for mango drinks; however, I think this is a great spot on a hot day in Pasadena.

My husband and I both really enjoyed the drinks. I would recommend the following: The Onyx Hojicha Milk Tea is a mix of Taiwan onyx black tea with hojicha charcoal roasted tea and house milk. It had a roasted, nutty, smoky, and creamy flavor profile. I am a big fan of how it tasted - more elevated than your typical milk tea. Brown sugar boba paired perfectly with this drink. The Oreo Uji Matcha is made with ceremonial-grade matcha imported from Japan, house milk, house cream, and crushed oreos. It tasted sweet, rich, and slightly earthy. The flavor of the oreo cookies balanced out the matcha in a good way. It was also delicious with brown sugar boba.

Overall the space was cute and had a good vibe. Pricing was in the higher end but felt appropriate for the space and the offerings. There was only one downside to the entire experience, there was an odd smell that both my friend and I noticed in the building. It was pretty off putting and we opted to take our drinks outside. My friend thought it might be an issue with the AC or the HVAC. Hopefully that issue is resolved the next time we visit. When that resolves it will be a 5 star spot.

The matcha mochi added a nice soft chew texture at the bottom and the Matcha Mousse left a melt-in-your-mouth feel. The Mango Sunshine Souffle Pancake was devine! The pancakes aren't too sweet, but the mango puree and cheese mousse brought a creamy sweetness and the fresh fruit added provided nice pops of bright sweetness. Super well balanced.

I understand the general trend is for drinks to be on the sweeter side but I was hoping that because of the raving reviews that it would come out closer to my preference. I believe that this may be more of a reflection of the area. If you prefer your drinks more balanced or not too sweet, I would be sure to assist that during your order

This location is small, efficient, and clean. Service is very friendly even though it's run only by two employees! I got milk tea with less iced and less sugar.

I can't remember what topping I got based on the employee's recommendation, but it all worked well and was very pleasant and refreshing. I shared some with my husband who grew up drinking yakult and he really liked it, too. The only downside is that it was stifling inside and felt like an oven between the hot afternoon sun and no (or weak) air conditioning. Fortunately I didn't need to linger once my drink was made, and since it's just a takeaway counter, there isn't any space to sit down, anyway. Tip: The drink was quite large, and in our case, one was big enough for two people to share.

I went this past Sunday for the Book Swap that was advertised on Eventbrite... this was located in the breezeway outside, not inside of the actual bookstore.

I didn't partake of the Boba (perhaps another visit) but I did have a nice walk around. Parking lot is tight here, but know there is parking on the back side of the building off Los Robles. I must mention that there are a few restaurants in this corner and they smelled delicious!

When you first walk in, you're welcomed to a wide open space with ample and varied seating, with couches, traditional chairs and tables, and little clusters of two chairs and an end table for parties of 2. There is also a massive selfie wall to the left, perfect for your Instagram moment. The jasmine tea and delicious boba are both freshly made. The price is a bit high for just boba, but you're paying in part for real estate. Service varies wildly. The older gentleman is gruff and unhelpful. The young ladies who man the front desk are far friendlier, and much more helpful. There is plenty of street and structure parking in old town Pasadena, and this is a short walk from a number of them.

Most recent visit was on a Tuesday late Jan 2026. I've been here a few times and liked it, I remember they had a mazapán drink that was super good so was looking forward to that again. Walking in the decor and menu generally the same. The kiosk was not working so had to place order upfront and it looked like only one girl was staffed there and she gave off the vibe that she did not want to be there. The mazapan drink was still up on the menu but the employee said they no longer make that, no explanation why it was still up there. Then seemed really impatient cuz I had to think about what to get instead. Ended up ordering a taro milk tea size 16 oz which took almost 10 minutes to make which I thought was way too long considering no one else was there. When I finally got it, it looked like a kids size there's no way that was 16 oz and tasted completely mediocre. Also cost $7 before tip which I regret giving an extra $1 too. Yikes with all the other boba and coffee shops in Pasadena they cannot afford to offer such low quality and poor service. Will not be back again.
