### happycrumbs — 5.0/5 · Dec 31, 2025
Their Jasmine milk tea is light and clean taste. I’m not a fan of boba but Umacha got it right! It’s bouncy and soft in texture, how it’s supposed to taste!

### agent_g — 5.0/5 · Jan 15, 2026
Good attitude and fast paced order fulfillment even though there were only two staff members during lunch rush hour.  Large size for an extra dollar.  Drink automatically comes with boba.  $7.65 including tax and tip.  Chose “quarter sweetness” and “less ice.”  The milk tea tasted good and the boba was chewy.
