| - Was in the area for dinner, so I figured I would check out the newest bubble tea joint in the plaza.
As the other reviews may have mentioned, the design and decor inside was very cool. Not sure how I would explain it exactly, but it kinda reminds me of what a cottage would look like if it was dimly lit and was crazy narrow! But along those lines, the establishment itself was hopelessly small. There are 3 tables, but it doesn't really give you the vibe of 'sit down and enjoy'. Very crowded especially when people start coming in and lining up.
Despite that, the drinks were a little unique, but about the same as any other you could get in the plaza to me. I wouldn't particularly say it was anything special that I would absolutely have to go back for, but I'm not really an avid bubble tea connoisseur, so take it for a grain of salt. Did try their promotion of 2 drinks for $8.85 (before tax), which is decent but comes to $10.00 after tax, so you're really not saving 'that' much. Got the Alley Trio Milk Tea and the Sweet Dew Oolong. Both were just okay.
Service was quite good though, as they gave us samples when we entered, and actually gave us our drinks at the table. With more than enough staff, they definitely had the service bit down.
Not somewhere I would be crazy about having to go back, but nice to have another choice when I'm there. Quite a bit of competition when there are like 3-4 places to choose from.
