    I was craving halo-halo and found this gem. It's one of the many food kiosks inside Blossom Market Hall. I had the proper halo-halo I remember growing up eating. Sweet red beans, young coconut shreds, ripe jackfruit strips, kaong, nata de coco, topped with ube ice cream, leche flan, and crisp rice cereal. Staff took the order patiently and said the halo-halo will be ready in 10 minutes. There are tables with hideaway benches and bar height chairs and tables to sit on.

    Her fave!

    My family and I absolutely love Tim's Thai Tea! Their desserts are always delicious and have become one of our favorite treats. The halo-halo is amazing, and my daughter's favorite is the shaved ice. The portions are generous, and they never skimp on the toppings, which we really appreciate. What makes the experience even better is the owner. He's always friendly, welcoming, and genuinely cool to talk to. You can tell he cares about his customers and takes pride in what he does. If you're looking for great desserts, generous servings, and excellent customer service, Tim's Thai Tea is definitely worth a visit. We'll keep coming back!

    Mais Con Yelo ($15 - 24oz)
    Ian A.

    I had a good experience at Tim's Thai Tea (San Gabriel). I ordered the Mais Con Yelo ($15 - 24oz) and Thai Tea ($9 - 24oz). Although its Thai Tea felt lackluster, the Mais Con Yelo dessert ensnared my heart. I happily bit into its creamy, sweet scoop of ice cream. I arrived at Tim's Thai Tea (San Gabriel) on Thursday (around 6:30PM). It's located inside the Blossom Market Hall. Parking is easy. The lot is spacious. Customers order at the counter or self-service kiosk. Staff is friendly but unmemorable. Staff usually vanishes behind the counter. After ordering, Staff provides an electronic pager. It beeps when your order is ready. My order took six minutes and 53 seconds. As mentioned, I ordered the Mais Con Yelo ($15 - 24oz) and Thai Tea ($9 - 24oz). The Mais Con Yelo includes Sweet Corn Cheese Ice Cream, Sweet Corn & Cream Corn Mix, Shaved Ice, Evaporated Milk, Condensed Milk, and Corn Cereal. When fresh, the Mais Con Yelo ($15 - 24oz) is VERY delicious. The ice cream is creamy with a robust, addictive corn flavor; its dry corn cereal toppings add a playful "CRUNCH." However, this treat is messy. It melts quickly!! As you progress, the treat tastes like chilled milky sweet corn. Unfortunately, the Thai Tea ($9 - 24oz) tastes heavy and bitter. There's an appreciated tea flavor attempt; however, it tasted burnt. Also, the boba pearls had a very off-putting texture and taste. These boba pearls felt like defrosted marshmallows. Despite the mediocre taste, I appreciated how the drink is thirst-quenching and huge. The Thai Tea is not bad, but it's forgettable. Concerning ambiance, Tim's Thai Tea (San Gabriel) benefits from being inside the popular Blossom Market Hall. It's filled with customers! The music is also very energetic and upbeat like a nightclub. The location has plenty of tables and seating. And the location is well-ventilated and clean. If I were to nitpick, Tim's Thai Tea (San Gabriel) would benefit from a hand sanitizer bottle because its desserts are so messy. Overall, I appreciated my visit to Tim's Thai Tea (San Gabriel). Personally, the Mais Con Yelo ($15 - 24oz) saved this experience. It's a beautiful and delicious dessert. If curious, I lightly recommend. 4.5 out of 5

    We stopped by on a busy Saturday night and there was only 1 employee working. The young gentleman working assisted every customer waiting in line with such grace and kindness. We were watching him make the drinks and you can tell he was having a great time putting the drinks together. The young man delivered all the drinks and orders in a timely manner with a smile. Thank you for providing excellent customer service. Enjoyed our milk teas from Tim's Thai Tea. We ordered the Strawberry Milk Tea and Thai Tea. It was delicious. The milk teas were not too sweet. The Thai Tea was blended perfectly: Can't wait to try other milk tea items on their menu.

    Tim!!! Why would you choose to put your halo-halo in this? Maybe you didn't have the right cups? At least warn a brotha! How am I supposed to mix mix this? Also why is it $16 dollars for a lot less than usual.

    Mais Con Yelo, shrimp balls, kwek kwek, fishballs

    We got catering from Tim's chai tea/Mag's matamis. It was an excellent experience. Everyone enjoyed the fish balls, the shrimp balls, the kwek kwek and the sauces. The live cooking was a highlight! And the dessert portion was even better. The sago gulaman was the best and so refreshing. We also had Halo halo and Mais con yelo which were both delicious. They usually have their tent, but I am very grateful that they were able to accommodate our narrower but longer space on the day of. We did have umbrellas to help keep the desserts cool. For the catering package all the utensils and containers were all included. And they were very efficient and none of our guests had to wait very long for any food or dessert. Scheduling with them was very easy and convenient. They respond quickly and are able to customize the menu to your needs and they also print the menu according to your parties theme. I was very happy with their food and their service and would highly recommend them!

    I came to Ube Fest and my son was asking for Thai Tea. The pictures seem like a legit, decent drinks but mostly Filipino drinks. We waited 40 minutes for two drinks; Thai Tea & Milo shake. Very dissatisfying on the water down Thai tea and Milo taste like your normal chocolate shake, no trace of Milo. Overly priced for two drinks $28 for 24oz Thai tea and 16oz Milo shake. I can get more from Cafe 86 and way better tasting drinks! Next time, maybe do a quality check on your drinks and train your workers better. It looks like a bunch of kids running around and do not look like they know what they're doing.

    Corn ice cream and sago at gulaman drink!

    Brings you back to my childhood snacks and I'm not even into sweets! It's also a little elevated which made it more fun :) I can't get over the mais con yelo option . And Tim is super duper nice!

    Thai Tea with Boba
    Winn H.

    Tea Bag - no, tea IN a bag... yes! With such a picture, I couldn't help but try it out for its novelty. Yup, I got the Thai tea in a bag with brown sugar boba - less sweet. The drink took about 5 minutes to prepare, and the staff explained how to enjoy it in their reusable pouch. A few sips later, I realized that the boba tasted normal and not like brown sugar - still good nonetheless. The Thai tea was on the watery side, but the level of sweetness was nearly perfect. The reusable pouch? I enjoyed the idea of being sustainable; now I just need to use it more often. The best part about it? It's included in the price, and it also stands on the table fairly well. A good amount of thought was definitely put into this product - credit where credit is due!

    Taro milk tea with boba and Mango Slushy + (add-ons) Total: $20.28
    Mr. W.

    Price: Reasonable enough to revisit, though add ons can increase the total quickly if you are not paying attention. Location: Located inside a lively market hall with a mix of food and drink vendors. The space includes a bar, stage area with scheduled events, and workshops held upstairs. The second floor also provides additional seating, outlets, and a single stall restroom alongside the men's and women's restrooms on the first floor. Parking is usually abundant unless there is a large street event, at which point the lot may require payment. Ambiance: The layout works well considering the number of shops housed in the hall. The overall feel is a blend of café, food court, bar, and family friendly gathering space. Menu: Appears wide at a glance. Ordering is done through a kiosk, but staff are available to guide you if needed. In this case, a recommendation was provided at the counter that led to ordering the mango slush. Service: Kind, patient, and informative.

    Shaved ice!
    Kathy M.

    The staff is extremely kind and sweet! We found a table and they brought the drink to us! I can always count on friendly service here! I really hope this stays for quite some time because I love their Thai tea and shaved ice!

    Stephanie C.

    Halo halo!!!!!!!! One of the best! Got the large 24oz cup. Guy was nice enough to split into two 12oz cups. He even let us have a choice of ice cream flavor!!! The mais ice cream is the best! The other one had pandan ice cream. Located in the blossom market hall. In the center kiosks. Can't find a better halo halo!

    Mais Con Yelo
    Leo Y.

    Located inside the blossom food hall in SGV. This food hall has plenty of seating and parking with free wifi for all guests. The staff were super attentive and helpful in answering any questions we had. Unfortunately the mais con yelo was definitely pricey when compared to everything else served in the food hall. Tasty but not worth the price. order: Mais Con Yelo ($13 after tax) comment: I tried to get a cup for free water at the hall but they don't provide any cups. I asked if they sell water which they then replied yes but for $5.50. WHY WOULD A BOTTLE OF WATER COST $5.50?? Great service and tasty drink but the prices are all over the place

    I love Korean shaved ice and this place rates way up there against all the other shaved iced places…read moreI've been here in the states and in Korea. Not only was the flavor amazing (which made me want to return and try them all) but the presentation was definitely instagram worthy. The one negative is that the seating was not plentiful for all their customers but this is definitely not a negative for the owners. That just means they have a great business. Location is in old town so parking might be a challenge.

    A Little Cheat Night Never Hurt Nobody!…read more After eating the juiciest chicken ever at Loli Farms, I've been eyeing this dessert spot for a while, and luckily it was only 1.6 miles away. So obviously... dessert was happening. Perfect excuse for a little cheat-night treat! Parking Hack: Don't pay $5 for parking! We parked about 7 minutes away in a parking structure for only $1 for 2 hours. After all the delicious food I inhaled, I definitely didn't mind getting a little extra cardio in. Pasadena parking is definitely doing the most, so parking structure it was! Mango Melon Shaved Ice -- $8.50 | 7.8/10 Mango-flavored shaved ice topped with melon balls and served with a side of milk drizzle. The shaved ice itself was SO soft and fluffy, and the milk drizzle gave it just the right amount of sweetness. The only thing was... I really couldn't taste much mango in the shaved ice. It was pretty subtle, so I wouldn't say this one completely blew me away, but it was still a refreshing treat on a hot summer night. Definitely not the best I've had, but certainly not the worst! Injeolmi Shaved Ice -- $7.50 | 7.7/10 Milk-flavored shaved ice topped with mochi, layers of Injeolmi powder, and more milk drizzle. This was actually our first time trying Injeolmi, so we were curious! The combination of the soft shaved ice, milk drizzle, and nutty Injeolmi powder was really good and made for a fun flavor combination. My only complaint? THE MOCHI. They were soooo tiny! I wanted that satisfying chewy squish, but these little guys basically tasted like mini boba that disappeared the second I bit into them. The shaved ice itself was perfectly soft and honestly the star of both desserts. Inside, there aren't a ton of tables, but luckily we snagged one right when we walked in. And let me tell you... this place had a constant flow of customers the entire hour we were there! People were coming in and out left and right, with only one ordering machine, so expect a little patience if it gets busy. Overall, both shaved ices were pretty decent and made for the perfect little "I already ate too much but I'm still getting dessert" moment. Definitely a nice way to break the diet after our chicken feast! Would I come back? Absolutely, especially to try some of their other shaved ice flavors. Happy desserts!

Unfortunately... this one just wasn't for me. Maiko Special -- $13.50 Rating: 6/10 There was SO much happening in this cup that I honestly didn't know where my taste buds were supposed to focus! Between the different ingredients, flavors, and textures, it felt like a little bit of everything was thrown in. The jelly at the bottom was pretty bland, and the red beans were just okay. The matcha cake had a decent texture and paired nicely with the ube and matcha ice cream, but then came the cereal crunch... and at that point, my taste buds were like, "Girl, we need a moment." Individually, I think some of these ingredients would be great, but together there were just too many flavors competing in one cup for my liking. I'm still glad I gave it a try, especially since I was craving something different after our first visit. But now I know myself better--I'm definitely sticking with their shaved ice next time! Sometimes you have to try the fancy special to realize your original favorite was already perfect. Happy sweets!

Multiple times where I've ordered a dessert and added condense milk, they've forgotten it. No problem, I learned my lesson to check if it's on the side before I leave. This time I went I wanted to add sesame balls. I didn't check because why would I need to open the container and stir around to see if it's in there? I got home and there was no sesame balls or the other toppings I added. Each topping is $1-1.25 each. Sure that's not expensive by itself. But with each order it adds up. Hard to want to enjoy something from what use to be your favorite spot when they keep messing up and don't bother to care when you bring up a complaint to them. My suggestion is to go to another location or stop supporting this place altogether. The store owner is too cheap to get the amount of attention they do.

While nothing bad about the staff as I understand that they're working as fast as they can, I cannot fathom sometimes various staff would not call out orders that are ready and would take over 30-40 minutes just to get one order out. While that was a one time experience, my next experience was very similar. Orders did take just as long to come out, once again, one staff member only. Lights were also turned off, no AC on a hot day, and restrooms were practically unusable. The doors wouldn't fully close and the toilets were dirty as well. Not a great look overall. The only saving grace I'd say are the spacious tables and their quality of the drinks. My partner and I always get their Osmanthus Golden Oolong Milk Tea and it hits pretty well. It's refreshing and definitely one of their top drinks. Menu is extensive which is a nice look. Besides that, the astronaut/space theme is a nice touch as well, pretty unique design that you don't really find elsewhere. Overall, a subpar tea spot that's downgraded plenty, seems like they're doing a lot of budgeting which is understandable. If you don't mind a longer wait time, check out L2 for their solid drinks.
