I'm so happy I found this place Seriously one of the best Vietnamese sandwiches I've had! The noodles are sooo good too. I've tried a bunch of their teas already and haven't had one I didn't like, and their Vietnamese coffee is delicious Everyone is super friendly and nice, the place is cute and clean, there's plenty of parking, and you can order ahead or just order there. Prices are reasonable too and definitely worth it.Such a good little spot. I'll definitely keep coming back read more

Been here multiple times, again this is a late review. They currently changed their food menu to more Vietnamese choices and I am so glad because it means we don't have to drive so far to get our Banh mi fix. To be fair, I loved the Italian food they had previously as well. However, I really like this change menu they did. We loved everything we ordered. I do wish I had more pork chop though with the rice ratio. That's just my opion because the pork chop was hella good. The Boba drinks always delivered. Can't go wrong with their boba drinks. Parking is not an issue here because it's a huge plaza with plenty of parking. Great place to hang out after you get your nails done next door. Plenty of chair and it's clean. read more

An unexpected find! Thought there would be the usual boba shop snacks, but this gem has updated the menu and is putting out quite the array of restaurant quality dishes. We ordered the Parmesan tater tots, pho, popcorn chicken, and garlic noodles with shrimp. All were tasty and worth returning for. Lots of games and plenty of space in the clean, fun interior to hang out after enjoying your food. read more

Sip and savor has updated their menu for their food. And their banh mi was really good. Not officially on the menu yet but was told it will be added. Got a matcha red bean drink as well as popcorn chicken. So far the food and drinks that I have tried have always hit the spot. Hoping to try more soon. read more

After eating dinner, I decided to drive my way to Hayward to go to Sip & Savor since it's close to where I ate at. This is quite unusual because this boba shop serves pastas since other boba places serve rice meals. Don't know but I guess that this is supposed to be a fusion restaurant? Inside is very quiet though, but I saw some people come in here. I also really like how they decorated part of the wall with "Sip & Savor" sign. If they covered the whole wall and even the ceiling, it would have looked like we're in a jungle. I didn't get pasta, but my mom and I wanted to try their boba. It's really good though. The Sip & Savor is slightly more expensive and it's quite flavorful even without adding boba. Not too sweet and it's just right. Definitely looking forward to trying one of their pastas if I were to come back! read more

This was initially a second choice option, that quickly became a place I'd return to. Everything sounded delicious and what we ordered (scallion pancake chicken wrap, garlic Parmesan tater tots, popcorn chicken) was PERFECTION. The scallion pancake was expertly crisp on the outside, yet still pliable and forgiving. the popcorn chicken was tasty enough to stand alone without a dipping sauce (we're on a Thai sweet chili kick.) I believe they are seasoned with 5 spice. It was pretty empty when we came around 12:30, and when we left around 1:15, it was packed with a line out of the door. I look forward to visiting again, S&S! read more

Boba and pasta, my new favorite combo! Plenty of parking and the store is nicely lit with plenty of tables to sit and eat. I was surprised with the range of the menu and also a bit hesitant. But I was pleasantly surprised by how everything tasted. The pastas are made to order and stole the show! The carbonara was so creamy and delicious. You also get a hefty portion and can take home leftovers. They also serve the pasta to you if you decide to dine in. They'll also cleanup after you. I still dream about the carbonara to this day read more

Wow the food was good! Don't mistake this place for the typical boba shop that sells a bunch of fried frozen food. Their food is actually made from scratch with a thoughtful menu. Their chef was trained in Italian food I think, and the Bolognese pasta was very flavorful with a great meat/sauce to noodles ratio (I like more meat and sauce to noodles). And the guy taking the order (owner?) was very helpful and friendly. Definitely check them out! read more

The service is always great and kind! The shrimp spring rolls w/ peanut butter sauce are my go to for something light and refreshing. The garlic noodles have so much flavor so yummy! But the star of the show is the GRILLED LEMONGRASS PORK BAHN MI! WOW! So good, crunchy, flavorful but still refreshing. Overall pleasantly satisfying trip and new try's for my mom and I! The drinks never disappoint but now the food, oh yeah! Also we realized too late but at the self pay kiosk there's a code for 15% off the food, definitely use that! The foods great but who doesn't like a discount?? Definitely recommend and it's cute inside :) read more

We checked this place out because it's in our neighborhood! Clean and vibrant. Love the decor! I appreciate the simple menu- food came out fresh and hot! Their spring roll has a good texture and shrimp tastes fresh (not overcooked). They have a really nice staff and pleasant service! read more

We had a delicious lunch here. The Vietnamese stew was amazing. So savory, flavorful, well seasoned, with tender chunks of beef and veggies. It was like a more savory Pho mixed with Taiwanese beef noodle soup but without the noodles. The spaghetti bolognese was really good. Sauce was savory and meaty and noodles well cooked. Their chicken wings were well seasoned and crispy. Boba was refreshing. Looking forward to coming back and trying their other dishes. Our kids will love this place as well. Inside is clean and spacious. Not your average boba place! read more

Minus an entire star for the purpose of this being a boba shop and i dont recommend their honey boba!! It was not a bit sweet of honey- it was very tasteless and the was hard- i am so disappointed. They also charge a 3% credit card surcharge. Also $8 for a milk tea is criminal. Ordered jasmine milk tea $6.5 w lychee jelly $0.59 Milk tea $8 Honey boba $0.59 Jasmine green tea salt cheese $6 W lychee jelly $0.59 Strawberry matcha $7.5 Strawberry slush $7.75 Jelly $0.59 Total $44 They have a loyalty rewards. Every 100 points you get $10 off. Each dollar is 1 point so you have to spend $100 to get $10. Insane Drinks are decent. Id come back to try other drinks without boba and the food read more

Jasmine sea salt tea was refreshing. In addition to boba shop offerings, they also have a rather sophisticated Italian food menu, which was very interesting. I am totally coming back and trying more in the future. Mom and pop vibes. Shopping center parking. Good service. Casual. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

My first impression walking in was how polite and welcoming the staff was. You can really tell they care about their customers. The place was super clean, the music was good and they even have free wifi for customers! I ordered the parmesan gnocchi pasta, mild popcorn chicken and the strawberry lemonade oolong tea. The pasta had a lot of sauce and was perfectly creamy. Since the portion was big, I got to take home my leftovers and have it lunch the next day! It paired really well with the popcorn chicken. And the strawberry lemonade oolong was the perfect drink to balance everything out I definitely recommend coming here to study or to hang out with friends! read more

My fiancée and I love this place!!! Boba is always a hit and their snacks are great. Just recently went and they redid their food menu, can't wait to try it. They always greet us, staff is kind and makes sure we're taken cared for. I love the music they play, have a movie on and there are fun games to play. We go about every other week, I love that it's close to home too. read more

I wanted to love this place. I had this place bookmarked for months until I finally had some time to go. This place is in a not so busy, huge complex along Mission Blvd with plenty of parking. They have the typical ordering screen right in front. Which I usually prefer so i can have time to think about what I want. I know I really wanted to try the pasta because I don't think I have seen a boba place serve pasta before. So I got the chicken fettucine alfredo and a matcha strawberry latte. My bf got popcorn chicken and the peach rose oolong tea with boba. We also got our order for dine in. Didn't wait too long and the order is ready. Everything was packed up to go, (even though we said we were eating in). Someone did come out with plates and utensils which we appreciate. The matcha strawberry was okay, the popcorn chicken was okay, but the peach rose tea was really good. Surprisingly not too floral that it smells perfumy. Very refreshing. The pasta was good too, I like they used real parsley. I just think it was a bit expensive for what you get. Overall it was okay. I will give this place a chance again when I am in the area and try the pizzas and other drinks. read more

Really wanted to like this place based on others' reviews, but for me this place unfortunately fell flat. Came in on a Saturday evening after a local graduation, and there was no one else inside. Cute decor, located in a strip mall. Place was staffed and clean, and lots of drink and food options. Unfortunately the drink flavors weren't that flavorful. The popcorn chicken was overly breaded, and felt more like breading rather than chicken. Maybe it was an off day when I went, but overall it wasn't a memorable experience. read more

Sip and Savor is more than just a boba shop, hence the savor part of the name. Cheryl put this place on my radar as soon as she said braised beef cheeks special. I knew this was going to go fast so I called in early to reserve two orders for pickup. Because it is so decadent and rich, it is absolutely shareable or enough for some leftovers. It is melt in your mouth tender and perfect to go over the bed of mashed potatoes and vegetable. When the beef cheeks are not available, they do offer some delicious pastas like the bucatini with fresh pistachio pasta and ricotta and a spaghetti with bolognese that you can add chicken or shrimp to for an additional $5. Both were a hit and would bring me back in. read more

**Redo** Italian and Boba meet at this tea house in Hayward. Been eating their delicious food and drinking their tea drinks for a while now, so it is time to let the secret out. Chef John offers his customers a variety of dishes ranging from Spaghetti Carbonara, Bucatini Alla Pesto, to Popcorn Chicken (delicious) and tater tots. And of course they have fruit tea, milk tea, Vietnamese iced coffee, salted cheese, boba and more. They have excellent service and a fun atmosphere. I would have added a photo but I ate it too fast. Be sure to pay them a visit and let them know that Steven sent you from Yelp! read more

Asian Tea/Coffee Shop but with a unique food twist. Of course they're gonna have popcorn chicken and other fried snacks to go with all them colorful, often sweet drinks with all kinds of things floating about. But this unassuming tea shop also has some significant food offerings that you just don't run into at this level. I'd even say sit-down restaurant quality food, although there is nothing sit-down about their format, straight counter service/take-out spot. I've had about 3 different drinks here and all are about $7ish, which is standard these days for these bigger tall sealed cups. Nothing has wowed me but they are standard/suffice. I feel their drinks run on the sweet side and even at 50% has a big noticeable sweet tinge. I ordered a topping once, some lychee jelly and it made the drink much sweeter than the 50% requested. I think a few tablespoons of the syrup that the jelly sits in, got put in the cup, which if you're trying to curb the default sweetness already, kinda seemed like an 'oh well' transaction. Popcorn Chicken ($10/3.5*) Big hunks of marinated chicken thighs fried in this crisp Asian coating that almost seems like tiny balls of starch, much different than say just flour or bread crumbs. Very crisp when warm but if you let this get cold, it totally transform into something else. Those crisp pearls turn mushy and gummy when cool, which made me assume a mochi-like coating. Quite flavorful bites though, very well seasoned, even has a tinge of heat from some red pepper. The basil was just raw leaves, and I definitely prefer fried basil as it adds a nice cooked anise flavor versus raw leaves which remind you of a salad. Spaghetti Bolognese ($18/4*) I tried this in-house once and when it came out it looked like a sit-down restaurant version from the nice heavy plate-ware to the presentation of nicely twirled pasta in a very balanced portioning. Very rich though, like the sauce is cooked down and maybe even a pat of butter is added as I felt a dairy richness in the texture. Also made it more oily and when I was eating this, I didn't have a salad or vegetable dish with it, so it was just a bit too rich for me as is. I would definitely try this again but steam some veggies at home or make a nice fresh salad to go with. Pepperoni Pinza ($22/4*) They also have pinzas here with different toppings. A pinza is a 'Roman' style pizza. This may be my first try of one. It is a thinner crust that gets really crisp, almost cracker crispness on the initial layer but it does have some chewy bread traits. Their sauce is awesome super thick and tomato-y with big hits of oregano. When hot the hits of tangy/sweet sauce and floral hits of oregano are divine, that I just may go Margherita next time. The pepperoni was okay but made it very salty, which is a given, but it even seemed saltier than a conventional pizza like Mt. Mike's. Spaghetti Pomodoro ($16/3.5*) I ordered this for take-out once to bring to a casual lunch buffet. Their tomato sauce is quite thick almost closer to paste than it is to sauce for me. I just prefer a looser/juicy sauce. The sauce was also surprisingly spicy, even after requesting it mild after being asked over the phone. It was so spicy that the child I brought it for wasn't able to eat it. I ended up taking it home for myself. Cool spot where the uniqueness will get me to come back. Hope they can stick around. read more

Came here for a Yelp event, and had been craving it ever since so came for my lunch. Good location in a non-hectic shopping center with lots of parking. Nice clean interior and friendly owner! I took my order togo and the owner made sure not to close my popcorn chicken boxes all the way so it can stay crunchy, now thats good service! The Ube Taro Milk Tea is delicious and perfectly creamy, I added cream brûlée topping and that combo is the one! 10/10. Popcorn chicken is full of flavor, crunchy and spicy got a good kick! Love that they put lots of basil and the chicken pieces are huge! Definitely get your money's worth! My coworkers tried my popcorn chicken and were amazed how big and good it is, they said they definitely going to come here. They also have amazing pastas! This is a great boba shop! read more

Recently saw that Sip and Savor expanded their food menu. They have many Vietnamese classics like pho, bun bo hue, bo kho, banh mi, bun thit nuong, as well as some Italian dishes. So far, we've tried the pho, bun bo, and a pasta dish and they've all been great. I would've preferred the beef in the bun bo to be less fatty, but it was still very good. Looking forward to trying the other dishes in the future. Hope people check them out. read more

I needed to check it our since I'm local to hayward and always curious about the newest boba spots and cafes. My friends and i all decided to get different drinks to taste test them all. I got the peach matcha latte ,gotta say, I LOVED the puree!!! so yummy. Another notable one was the Peaches + Cream and the Ube Coffee. Recommend those two!!! the food was pretty good too. The popcorn chicken was nicely seasoned and the pieces were HUGE. I think i need to try more of their Italian options. read more

Last Wednesday, we were a trio on a mission, a mission for 1/3 of the trio to introduce the duo, my daughter and myself to some good Italian eats served at a boba tea spot? Not exactly, it's a cafe! A Boba Tea cafe serving some of the best Italian food I've ever eaten out. Once you visit you'll understand... the 3 of us drove from The Jo to Hayward solely for this experience. See My buddy had experienced some of the great food and excellent service a few days prior and vowed to return, so what better way than to treat Me and My daughter for My birthday! Let me start by saying there isn't 1 thing we ate or drank that We wouldn't eat or drink again; over and over again. Everything was delicious, the portions huge, and the prices very reasonable. I love the interior set up, the board games made Me feel as though I was at home dining with My family. The staff are amazing! read more

New-ish boba/drink and Italian food spot! Their food menu has lots of small bites as well as pizza + pasta dishes, which I want to come back and try! Drink menu has classic milk teas, Vietnamese coffee, matcha drinks as well as refreshing fruit teas, which I opted for. The inside was sooo cute, decorated for Christmas and had Home Alone 2 playing. There's also a variety of board games available, and I saw a few tables sitting and playing together! Peace Rose Oolong Tea (5/5): Floral and not too sweet, which was perfect for me. I added lychee jelly for personal preference and I liked it! Also came out super fast after we ordered on the kiosk. Even if it's cold outside, I'm always craving a drinky drink. Next time I'd also try the food/snacks + Viet coffee when I'm in the mood! read more

If you're in and around the Hayward and San Lorenzo area, this is another small business in the books, and y'all should TRY this place out! Thank you to several K-Pop hosts that I've known over the past few years for introducing me to this place -- not only are they Asian-owned, but they're also K-Pop friendly as well! Noona Events had their GOT7 event last week here at this Sip & Savor, and from the moment I walked in, the aroma of pasta and the pungent smell of tea leaves and boba INSTANTLY caught my eye. Everything is made from natural -- from Thai tea, to boba, to the delicacy of pastas the Asian or the traditional Italian way. I ended up caving into the Thai tea only because I had a REALLY strong sweet tooth this past week, and was also really hungry The storefront was really spacious, and it even had a backdrop where you could take pictures of yourself, with or without the signs and the picket fans. Everything within the shop was pretty clean -- well maintained and hygienic as well. The staff was also VERY friendly, giving us the best recs as well as presenting to us the drinks that were present I'll definitely be back for MORE events here, or even on regular visits -- I hope this boba shop STAYS around for the long-term cuz we're going to need them around so we can boost their business while celebrating our favorite boy or girl groups! read more

A boba spot with italian food! I only came in to try the boba drinks but I will definitely come back to try their food. We came in before the after school rush since this place is near a high school. You can order with the workers or through the self order kiosk. I liked how the inside was decorated well and spacious. They also offered fun games for people dining in. The workers were very nice. Their drinks were just okay so minus one star. The boba didn't have much taste even though it was on the menu as "honey boba." There was nothing bad about the drinks but there wasn't anything wow-ing. read more
