Our favorite boba spot moved and closes early now, so we had to find a new company. I do miss the creme brulee I used to get with the other company, but I enjoyed the hot pumpkin spice milk tea I tried here. My husband and daughter enjoyed their snow and slushes with boba. The difference between the two is one has milk and the other doesn't. I think the snow has milk, but I could be wrong. I haven't seen snow/slush options at other establishments and its a nice option on a hot day.

I think this has got to be one of the tastiest ice cream shops! You can really tell they make their ice cream in house because the flavors are so rich and flavorful. We tried cinnamon, chocolate, blueberry and lavender ice cream, and they were all amazing.

The way both workers spoke to us was honestly unacceptable and came across as rude and disrespectful. I’ve been here two other times before and always thought the ice cream was good, which is why this experience was disappointing. This time my friend and I tried the milkshakes, and they were extremely runny and tasted more like milk than a milkshake. I almost never ask for something to be remade, but this genuinely seemed wrong, so I politely asked if they normally turn out like that. One of the workers offered to remake it, and I said yes. After that, the original worker who made them became noticeably rude. He kept looking at me and my friend and rolling his eyes, which made the situation uncomfortable. I was respectful the entire time and simply wanted a product that matched what we ordered. Unfortunately, because of both the product quality and the customer service, I won’t be returning or supporting this business again.

Loved the flavor options and the taste. Tried cake batter and mango ones.
