Christy S. • November 19, 2019The Ube Mochi Muffin is delicious

Sabrina S. • February 4, 2011Great selection of teas. They even let you try some of them before you buy. I love the Moroccan Mint, and the Peppermint Rose tea.

Denis P. • November 13, 2019Winter latte is amazing. Also gotta try a ginger cookies

Kenny C. • November 17, 2017Delicious, affordable, dim sum with MASSIVE portions. Lines can get very long if you go at peak times (lunch, etc.). Still, it's more than worth the wait for cheap, tasty food.
