We decided to stop here on a whim and I’m so glad we did! The workers were so kind and helped us decide what to order. Their prices are affordable for what you get and they offer almond milk for no extra charge. I ordered an iced strawberry matcha latte (large) with almond milk for $5.95. It was so good and made with real strawberries. My partner ordered the small oolong cheese tea for $5.75. The cheese cap tastes similar to cheesecake and was better than I expected! They offer samples of the cheese cap if you want to try first. You can also customize the sweetness level of the drinks. We will definitely be back for tea and the Poke Bowls!
Freshest poke bowl I’ve had in Minnesota my favorite so far!! Would definitely order again!!
We were in town for a convention and were really craving poke bowls. Sooo much better than our local place! The ginger and pickled radish are so good! My spouse got the tuna and I got the crab salad and we loved it! The oreo milk boba is delicious too! Absolute dessert in a cup! The owner was so sweet and even gave us an extra stamp on the punch cards. Will definitely come back soon!
I ordered a poke bowl for dinner today and it was fresh and delicious. I have been to a few other poke restaurants in downtown Minneapolis area. I have say this is my favorite place to go for poke bowls and boba tea. Not only their ingredients are always fresh, but the vibe around the entire storefront is alway warm and welcoming. Highly recommend this place to everyone.
Excellent food with super fresh ingredients--I got the volcano bowl and I don't think I've ever had a jalapeño that crunchy. Fish was fresh and flavorful. I also got the Dirty Oreo boba drink, which wasn't too sweet, but creamy and delicious. All the food and drinks are reasonably priced, and with plenty of seating available, this is an awesome place to go to for lunch or a study session. I was particularly impressed with how FAST the service was, and their attention to detail. I grabbed extra chopsticks for my bag before realizing that she had already given us some. That might seem like a basic thing, but honestly in fast casual dining that's easy to overlook. Will want to come here over and over again.
