went there during soft opening and ordered snow globe with 75% sugar but was still super sweet. the next time i went there to order the fruit tea, still super sweet…but the recent one, it was perfect! the sweetness level was adjusted!
i recommend snow globe and fresh milk with grass jelly. also, deep fried squid!

I have been visited here multiple times, and I feel like is the best boba shop so far in Corvallis. I would like to rate them 4.5 out of 5, but there’s no option for that, and I’m a bit picky based on this store claims they are authentic Taiwanese boba shop, so there are some points that I can’t neglect about as a Taiwanese. The drinks are above average so they don’t have much issue for drinks. However, a bit disappointed on the basil pop corn chicken (one of the famous dish in Taiwanese night markets), I’m not sure what they marinate with, the pop corn chicken have a weird after taste (I guess put it too long), and the basil is the soul of this dish but barely taste the basil and the smell in it. I know basil aren’t cheap, but I preferred to add more to enhance the basil smell. The green beans are way too greasy and blend (don’t recommend). Both deep fried squid and sweet potatoes are nice(80% similar compare to local Taiwanese shop). It’s a bit unfair for me to make this review because I set the standard above average as a Taiwanese, I will automatically compare it with Taiwanese local shop. Either way I believe there are still some places to be improve.

Deep-Fried Squid
Really nice atmosphere, but thr best part is the fun menu. They have snacks and even a few items that could be a full meal, plus an impressive, full boba tea menu.
