Crema's Take
“Mintea is a family-owned gem that brings together expertly crafted milk teas and winter melon drinks with freshly made Asian appetizers like hand-rolled egg rolls and crispy chicken wings, creating the perfect spot for lingering conversations. The staff's genuine warmth and welcoming nature matches the beautiful decor, making it feel like you're visiting friends rather than just grabbing a drink. Whether you're after their standout boba, a silky Vietnamese iced coffee, or satisfying comfort food, everything arrives fresh and balanced—no heavy-handed flavors, just thoughtful execution.”

Great place to go for Asian food/appetizers and boba drinks. Beautiful decor also. The staff is always welcoming and friendly. We love the kaopia, steam buns, fried chicken wings, eggrolls and vietnamese coffee. Kaopia is made fresh to order, you can get it to go or dine in. Broth is flavorful and they don't skimp on the chicken. They also put all the condiments on the side in a little sandwich baggy so you can season your kaopia to your liking. The kaopia noodles are the fresh, thick and perfect chewy consistency. Chicken wings were crispy and juicy, perfect with the sweet chilli sauce. Eggrolls were crispy and flavourful, hmong style eggrolls with pork, veggies and bean thread noodles, well seasoned and has black pepper. They give you sweet chili and their house made spicy eggroll sauce which has the perfect spice kick. Steam buns are number one! The filling to dough ratio is perfect. The filling is pork, veggies and egg, no black pepper. Both mine and the husband's favorite. Mint Tea also has the best vietnamese coffee in town! We also love their Kiwi melon drink and get it with no lime slice.
This is my new spot! Absolutely love the milk tea and winter melon AND the food. It's family owned and they are so sweet and welcoming here, which is a huge thing I look for when going anywhere. The beauty in the front is always helpful when I'm indecisive lol and breaks everything down nicely. I never feel rushed here, and in general I love the environment here! Super cute💙
This is so good! It’s extremely fresh. I had egg rolls and they hand roll and deep fry them fresh. The calamari is so crunchy and fries are amazing. I also had viet iced coffee and the cookies are delicious. The best thing is the angel wings. The place is cute and the girls at the front are so freakin sweet. 10/10
Worker was very nice. I had a Mangonada slushie and it was delicious. It wasn't over powering with salt or Chamoy. The food looked really good. I would like to return to have some sticky rice and chicken or sausage. Esthetics is nice. Colorful flowers surround the dining area.
Mintea is wonderful! I came for the first time today with my friend to get boba drinks for her birthday. We ended up getting the 6 pc. chicken potstickers and the 6 pc. egg rolls too, and the food was amazing just like the drinks! The staff is super friendly as well. :)
