The vibes were everything and you could come with a few people or even solo and enjoy a book, some pho, decor that honors anything and everything chill, and one of their deliciously addictive egg coffees. Yes, you read that correctly, EGG coffee. Iced Egg Coffee, to be more specific. It's sweet, satisfying, refreshing, and you'll want it again and again. The amount of times I've tried to mimic this at home is downright embarrassing...which means that another trip is in order! I have my eye on the Toffee Milk, Saigonese Shake, and Artichoke Refresher. The menu honors traditional Vietnamese fare and fusion, so everyone can find something to enjoy :D Would I come back? Definitely, and I'm bringing everyone. Well, 3 others, because that's all I can fit in my car; but I'm telling everyone :D Enjoy!

I wanted to love this place, but I honestly didn't understand the hype. The drinks were average and…read moreoverpriced. On our first visit, they'd already run out of papaya salad despite just having opened. We ordered the So Mint Cooler, which was refreshing but a bit too sour, and a matcha latte that was just average. On our second visit, the papaya salad was a letdown, with barely any beef jerky, and the dish felt so unpolished I could probably make a better version at home. We ordered two drinks: lychee tea and volcano mango. The lychee tea was nothing special, and the volcano mango was supposed to come with a seasoned mango and tajín eatable "straw", but we got a regular one instead. When we asked about it, the staff just said they'd run out. No apology, no heads up until we asked. It felt dismissive. The staff seemed inexperienced overall. I initially assumed this was a self kiosk ordering kind of place, but the second visit made it feel more like a sit down restaurant. Either way, no one checked in beyond taking our order and dropping off the food, so it never felt like a full dining experience. Parking is easy, since it's a combined restaurant and tea shop. I don't think I'll be back.

Genuinely OBSESSED with this lovely juice shop! I had never had sugar cane juice before, but when I…read morewalked by this cute little shop and their lovely cart outside displaying every type of fruit imaginable, I knew I had to give it a try. They have a huge selection of drinks, all based on their freshly made sugarcane juice. I just got the classic juice since it was my first time trying sugarcane, but I'll definitely be back to sample some of the other fruity combos. It was delightful -- not too sweet, with notes of honey and an almost floral-like flavor. At $7 a cup, it was definitely pricey, but pretty reasonable for the area as I've also seen plenty of cafes and boba shops charge similar prices for lower quality drinks. The staff was super friendly, and I love that they had one of their juicing machines right next to the register. It was really fun to watch them work, and the machine spit out all the extra sugar cane skins / peelings into a giant wooden bucket that you could take from. The sugarcane had a great aroma, and the peelings are a fun way to keep kids entertained.

Went here on a Sunday afternoon after exploring some stores and restaurants in Eden's Center. Mia…read more& More reminds me of Bambu which is a chain that sells Vietnamese Style Desserts (Che). It was pretty busy inside but ordering is easy as there are two kiosks you can use to order from. There are options from Pennywort, Che, to Snail and Vietnamese Street food snacks. Once your order and get your order number a worker at the front will yell your order number to pick up. I got the Three Bean Dessert Che. One thing I really like about this Che is the ice they use. I'm used to just having a block of ice on top and having to break it apart but the ice they use here are little squares/blocks which is a nice touch. After mixing everything together the Che overall was pretty good. I don't have any complaints about it. The ambiance inside is pretty nice. They were playing Vietnamese music which is a nice touch. They don't have as many Che options as a Bambu but they make it up for it by having options for other style desserts or food.

I always try to stop by here once a month to pick up a big order of their fried items like the…read moremushroom tofu, green pork balls, and spring rolls (which are my absolute favorite. Their che is pretty decent too and I love their cassova with salted peanuts is SO good. You will absolutely find something if you stop by for a visit. Plus you get a free soy milk if you order over $35 (pretty sure but it's on their store as to what the amount is) of items. It might seem hectic upon arrival but it's really not. You wait your turn to get served and when you're done ordering they'll flash a number at you that you need to remember. Then you wait until your number is flashed by the cashier so you can pay and pick up. For those who don't want to deal with the hectic parking in Eden Center, stop by on a weekday in the later afternoon.

Vietnamese restaurants are generally not known for exceptional customer service. That's almost…read moreexpected. Unfortunately, this restaurant is no exception. I ordered two to-go chè ba màu (three-color desserts) and clearly asked multiple times for the shaved ice to be packed separately. The employee nodded, indicating she understood. When I got to my car and checked my order, there was no ice. So, in the July heat, I walked back inside and politely explained that my order was missing the ice. Instead of checking, the employee repeatedly insisted, "The ice is in the bag." I replied several times, "I already checked. There is no ice. Please give me my ice." She continued insisting it was there, as though I was trying to scam the restaurant out of ten cents' worth of ice. After several rounds of back-and-forth, another employee walked over... carrying a bag of ice. So yes, the ice had been forgotten all along. Instead of simply apologizing and handing me a replacement, they chose to argue with a paying customer over something that probably costs them pennies. They never say "I'm so sorry here's your ice and for your inconvenience pls accept our apologies and take this extra dessert, our complement for messing up the order". The restaurant itself feels chaotic. Their numbering and communication system between the order taker and the cashier clearly needs improvement. Whatever special instructions you give when ordering, you'd better repeat them again at the register or better yet, inspect your order before leaving. The problem is that the checkout area is so hectic that you almost feel rushed to move along. In my case, I felt like I was getting dirty looks for taking too long to verify my order worth over $60 so I checked it in my car instead which is how I discovered the missing ice. The disappointing part is that the food is outstanding. The chè was excellent, and that's the only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1. Good food can bring customers in the door. Good customer service is what brings them back.

Some of the ones we tried included the black sesame, mango, coffee, matcha, Oreo and chocolate - not all at once For drinks we chose the passion fruit smoothie which had a lot of flavor once it melted a bit and the danger of mega brain freeze had passed and the milk foam Vietnamese iced coffee. I would have liked a little stronger of a coffee taste but it was still good. The staff was very patient as we gazed at the posters depicting their most popular offerings and tried to choose. I thought their wall art which made little people out of light bulbs was whimsical. Even though the center gets very crowded, we didn't have trouble finding parking out front.
