    Delicious soft serve match and sesame swirl for $6 (a little pricey when you think of soft serve - but it's definitely worth it). They served it up so quickly that I blinked and our cones were ready. It has a nice 'not too sweet' taste and so refreshing for sure. I haven't tried any of their other items, but I think I definitely will try some more of their desserts in the future.

    After a long day, this drink from releaf helped me a lot. The quality of the matcha was very tasty and the strawberry purée matched perfectly. Will be grabbing a matcha drink from this place whenever I visit the marketplace!

    I am a huge fan of anything matcha! I finally tried their Matcha Latte and it was delicious! Very smooth, not too sweet and creamy. A refreshing drink on a warm day. I will be back to try their soft serve ice cream!

    ** soft serve review ** Big time big back fan of releaf. It's been around since I was a kid and continues to have my favorite matcha soft serve. They also had a black sesame soft serve and asked if I could sample it before committing to it lol. Thankfully the staff member said I could have a sample and I decided to get the swirl (matcha and black sesame). This dessert spot also offers coffees, teas, and ice cream. It's located in the mitsuwa food court and I recommend saving room to try it! Even if your stomach is full, like mine was... I still found a way to find room for it =P

    Great black, sesame and matcha ice cream. Very expensive but good. Long line of customers on a Sunday afternoon but worth the wait

    This shop is in the food court of Mitsuwa market place right next to the curry spot. My husband and I love this place, and have tried almost every drink on the menu since moving to Schaumburg. We have liked every single drink that we tried although the yuzu is a little on the sweeter side for us when you get it cold. They also sell soft ice-cream in a cone or a bowl. I had the sesame and matcha swirl and it was delicious. Highly recommend stopping by.

    Yuzu Matcha
    Grace C.

    I got lucky and there wasn't a line. Got the Yuzu Matcha and loved: (1) it doesn't have milk of any kind (2) clean flavors (3) it was just sweet enough (not overly so). Typically I prefer simpler beverages, either just matcha & water or matcha, water, and a little unsweetened soy milk. Quick and easy to place an order with the cashier. It's part of the food court in Mitsuwa so there's not much to say about the ambiance other than it's rad to be able to roam around picking up items from the different vendors. Definitely want to come back and try the soft serve.

    Matcha soy boba
    Kimy P.

    Releaf is inside Mitsuwa's food court area. They make the best matcha lattes ever. I ordered the matcha latte soy boba and I will have to say it was the best boba/matcha latte I have ever had! I am honestly very particular about getting an authentic strong matcha latte and they hit the spot plus perfect little tapioca pearls. I literally crave this all the time so I can't wait for the next time I can go. Highly recommend trying them! :)

    Their soft serve in matcha and black sesame flavors were both very very good. Matcha is a bit more bitter and the young kids don't like it as much but they all loved the black sesame flavor. Best in both around the area.

    We always get drinks from here. Our family faves are matcha milkshake, matcha drink and milk tea. The boba is a baby size, which my kids love! It's easy to swallow, and there's no need to chew! You definitely need to go here when you're at Mitsuwa.

    I've been trying to look a good matcha ice cream place in Chicago for the longest time and I FOUND IT! Releaf is located in the cutest Japanese marketplace, tucked away in the corner amid other restaurants. I got their Black Sesame and Matcha mixed soft serve on a cone. Honestly, there isn't much to say except that it was delicious. The quantity is really great, swirl was aesthetically pleasing to look at, and you can taste both the matcha and black sesame. The staff said that the soft serve is definitely stronger compared to the ice cream scoop. They do serve drinks during their normal operating hour, but after like 6/7pm, they only sell soft serve and ice cream after those times.

    matcha parfait
    Kelly L.

    Everytime I go inside mitsuwa marketplace, I always end my meal with their ice cream! I love their matcha soft serve. My friend decided to try their lychee scooped ice cream which surprisingly was so tasty. The flavor was a mix between in a natural flavor, but also candy like. The matcha parfait, we wished had more ice cream to pair with the many cake pieces throughout the cup. This is becaise the cake was a bit on the drier side as well as in addition to the red bean paste which can further dry the palate. Love the two cookie toppings for the crunch contrast and the mochi being super soft and chewy. Strawberries were a fresh addition to this sweet dessert!

    Line moved fast. The flavors of matcha and black sesame were perfect. Prices were inexpensive. Service was great.

    Our Experience was good, not great…read more We did some research about all of the local ice cream places and our kids picked Kurimu because it seemed to be the most unique. Initial impression wasn't great... The smell was really the main reason why. The shop itself definitely had a smell, I can't really describe what it was but it was not pleasant. There was one person working, he was polite but did not have much personality. Most of our questions were met with him telling us that we ordered "over there" as he points to the register. It just did not have a very welcoming energy. Only of our kids got ice cream as the flavors did not catch them like they had hoped it would. My Youngest got a coconut ice cream with waffle cone (she loved it), it was a subtle coconut flavor but very refreshing. My oldest daughter got a match drink w boba, hers was also good but not her favorite. I ended up getting the soft serve mix (Tofu/Black Sesame) which was definitely unique and I did enjoy it but no one else i was with did. After checking out, we were offered free stickers which was a nice gesture and I talked about their Japanese Car theme which seemed to liven up the man working momentarily. My family was not impressed but I enjoyed the experience. Very unique compared to what we are used to seeing. I would most likely return, but I am not confident my family would follow.

My sister ordered the jasmine milk tea, and she really enjoyed it. She especially liked that it wasn't overly sweet. Overall, this is a fun spot with unique flavors and a great selection. We'll definitely be back to try more!
