I didn't have any trouble finding a parking spot and the employees were really helpful despite it being busy. The shop is clean & bright with plenty of tables. The only thing I would recommend is listing the mochi donut flavors - I just took a guess. I got a strawberry mousse. Not only was it so beautiful but it was filled with fresh strawberry filling and SO good. Will be back to try the other flavors.

So my sister and I tried the strawberry croissant & and the pistachio cream doughnut…read more It was delicious! I was nervous about the donut but it tasted amazing. I would totally order from them again. I couldn't get out today and did an online order. I look forward to checking them out in person and being able to experience the shop ambiance. If you ever want a sweet treat that's not too sweet and not too heavy on your stomach this is the spot!

After spending the afternoon walking around Richmond, bubble tea was calling my name! Gigi Tea is a…read moresmall shop where you can order downstairs and then head upstairs to sit if you'd like. I took my drink to go and it was ready pretty quickly. The barista making drinks was super nice and set me up with a rewards punch card which I appreciated.

Best little mom and pop boba shop ever. They are always so kind, a couple years ago they never had…read morean open upper space. It was nice to see that it was open with many chairs, tables AND numerous outlets. They even have whiteboards for studying. Unfortunately since it's just the family that works here it's only open 12-7 everyday. On whatever free days I have I'll definitely go here. If I didn't do reviews I definitely would have gate kept it but i'm just so nice ‍ The Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie just hits the spot and fills the craving so easily. That's my favorite drink there! I'm so excited to try their other items as well. When I went I didn't see any food, but hopefully I'll be able to try some on my next visit too!

Bright and airy space, almost like a spa!…read more Quiet when I came in weekday afternoon. Calming spot to grab a treat, get some work done/journal, or catch up with friends in an aesthetic and modern cafe. Ordered the paradise tea with mango and avocado. I loved the textures and layers of flavors. The drink was filling and lasted me a while, not watery but refreshing. The mango tasted fresh and avocado creamy. I haven't tried the pastries at this location, but have at their other Richmond cafe. Great cakes and buns made fresh in-house. Easy to find parking at the lot outside. Service is pretty quick.

When I walked in, there were two customers seated and two employees behind the counter. I walked…read moredirectly up to the cashier, who looked right past me without saying a word and then walked away toward the pickup area, where another employee was standing. That employee also completely ignored me, despite the fact that I was clearly standing there waiting to be helped. I was there to pick up a DoorDash order for someone else, but based on the way I was treated, I can guarantee you I will not be choosing to spend my own money at this establishment. I ultimately had to ask another customer who was standing in line if they knew where to pick up a DoorDash order. The entire experience was incredibly dismissive and unprofessional. A simple acknowledgment or, at the very least, "We'll be with you in a moment" would have made a huge difference.

This place is a hidden gem. I randomly tried the sea salt Vietnamese coffee with cold foam and been…read moreobsessed since then. The flavor is extremely strong but the sea salt cold foam balances it out. Like it's the perfect amount of caffeine to keep you alert but it isn't that strong that will not make you sleep at night. The drink costed me $6.63 which is a good amount in today's economy. The workers there are sweet. The place is tiny so only 2 tables and then a highs eating bar like table connected to the wall. this is my coffee to go! I crave this drink every time I want something sweet but not to sweet

I should broaden my drink choices here, but the tea is just so refreshingly good every time. I wish they carried the little mini hot dog buns without cheese that the other location usually has, as that's my favorite savory. the pastries here are usually loaded with cheese which doesn't always agree with me. but this location serves korean hotdogs too so maybe that makes sense. I would love to see them broaden their selection even more!

I mainly went to try the pastries and got the apple and blueberry ones. Unfortunately, neither was really my favorite. The apple was mostly cream with some apple filling, but it didn't taste like apple pie like I was told it would. The blueberry did have a blueberry flavor, but again I mostly tasted just cream. The pastries looked AMAZING, just unfortunately didn't taste as good as they looked. I also tried the macarons, which I liked better than the pastries. Overall, cute place and calm environment.
