We came here last Friday night after seeing some pictures on google and deciding it looked good. Cute little place when we walked in, but nobody was there to greet us. We decided to grab a couple of menus and sit down to decide. After about 7-10 mins we walked back to the front, nobody greeted us still but we heard a few teenage voices from the back laughing and talking. We coughed and shuffled and tried to make our presence known.

After waiting a few minutes nobody came, but I didn’t want to call out through the curtain or be rude, so I ended up just calling the place that way they heard the phone ring. Someone eventually came to the front after hearing the phone ring and took our order, covering her mouth while chewing food. Our bobas were brought to us, and the boba pearls were not even cooked all the way 😂 you would think for a place that strongly advertises boba AND has a sister store that sells boba, they wouldn’t be hard and undercooked. I didn’t want to be a pain and bring it up to them so we tried to brush it off.
They didn’t bring out our meals together, so I sat and waited about 5 mins while my bf ate his. The “salad” was just lettuce with sauce. No other toppings. The sushi was pretty good.
Other customers came in and were greeted quickly, unlike we were. Overall, the workers were polite but crappy service, food was alright, and the undercooked boba sucked. Wasn’t worth the money

Delicious. Our first time here and they made sushi the way my son wanted as we just came from Japan. I will be coming back any time I’m in the area for one of these monster sushi’s as well. Picture doesn’t do it justice

This place is a little pricy but the food is great. They also serve a pretty large portion for the price. They don't list what their special sauce is however, to me it seemed similar to spicy mayo, so if you don't like spicy mayo, be sure to ask them about their I Heart sauce and what's in it. I myself am a bit sensitive to things like spicy mayo but can still eat it. Compared to the atmosphere of the interior, I felt that the menu was a little too loud and chaotic in appearance (plus the different colors on one side seemed random and nonsensical until you see a color key on the other side of the menu) plus it is not friendly to people who have color-blindness since it places mid-bright colors in dark colored backgrounds.  My colorblind fiance was not able to read some areas of the menu. Nonetheless, I give this place five stars for the quality and portion sizes of the food.

Very good boba. Had a lot of choices to choose from! Korean BBQ bowl was good but I want too much fan of the carrot as it was covering the rice and kind of thick. Pickles cucumber was very good and Kalbi was very good. My husband had Korean BBQ bento and that was good too.
The decor of the place was so very non Asian but I liked the food! (I am full Asian so I m pretty picky lol)

This place is so cute and has delicious food. It's close to my college, UWF, so I like to go here with friends between classes. I get the shrimp tempura box and a green tea boba. They have a boba card that you get punched to earn a free boba every 6! The seasonal drinks are also so delicious! Right now there is a Sakura Berry one.
