It's great to see a Filipino place in Arizona! I would never have imagined! Well, I mean, before my mother joined the nursing staff at a local hospital, I didn't know there were other Filipinos in suburban Phoenix. Anyways...
I really dig this lil place. I've only had one boba drink - a taro blended drink that was super-sweet - and it wasn't anything to write home about. That said, it's still pretty good for not being California.
But boba isn't what I really like about the place. Pinoy's Best has a really nice staff, a great selection of Goldilocks Filipino foods (like siopao!), and I even found polvoron there! It was a couple bucks for a warm siopao and you can get frozen siopao to take home for even less per unit. They even have longanisa. When I'm hanging out at my parents', it's always on my mind to drop by and grab a little treat to take home.
The service can be a little hit-or-miss, but everybody is really nice despite it sometimes being slow. It is pretty popular; I've always seen a bunch of people in the place at once.
The ownership is super nice and it seems like a lot of people like to stop in, say hello, and express their gratitude. I like that.
I look forward to every visit and I can't wait to come back.
