Came here for the second time and I got the Ginger Dun Dan this time, which is their steamed egg pudding. I love Asian puddings, this was not to sweet and loved the ginger juice I got with it. We also got some sago desserts, ice cream and a drink!

Really good baked meat sauce spaghetti and chicken a la king baked rice. Their set means come with a small milk tea boba, which you can upgrade to coconut mango sago for $3.75. The food is really good and drinks delicious. We got there a little after 6 on Saturday and it got super busy after with so many to go orders.

Nice place to enjoy a simple meal with milk tea with or without boba. The combo meals are tasty, decently price in just the right amount.

Baked pork chop over rice was good, though the rice was not hot enough. Fried chicken wings are nicely crunchy on the outside and juicy and tender inside.

I would skip the tofu red bean dessert though. The tofu tasted of the plastic container it was stored in.

Boba was just the right texture and flavor. Tea was nice and strong. It was a little too sweet and a bit too much ice so I’ll ask for less of both next time.

The staff were all very friendly and patient with our questions.

I would definitely come back again.

It's been a while since I was last here, but my has their menu grown since they first opened.

The place still looks the same, but the difference is that you place the order at the register now instead of them taking your order. It wasn't super busy, but the person who works there didn't seem too happy to help me either.

I went here because I was craving the fried buns with condensed milk, and it was just like I remembered. Crispy on the outside with a balanced fluffy and doughiness on the inside.

Peanut butter toast with condensed milk did not taste the same. It had a hint of coconut taste to it that I wasn't a fan of and lacked a creaminess to it.

Waffles (hk style)- i got it because I was curious. I mean, you really can't go wrong with waffles. I was wrong. This had the same filling as my toast, and the filling was mainly on one side. They made it into a sandwich, which left me with wanting something more, and this fell short.

French fries - surprisingly tasty and crunchy.

Popcorn chicken - crunchy, flavorful, and moist on the inside

Mango matcha latte - This was good, but I was expecting like fresh mango chunks or something. Instead, it was a puree smeared around the cup. I was also a little disappointed they don't have the cups anymore that have their logo on it.

Stopped in to try the bingsu. Ordered mixed fruit chocolate bingsu, strawberry sage and lychee sago drinks. They top the drinks with fresh fruit, nice touch. Both drinks were good and refreshing. The bingsu was a healthy portion size. Smooth chocolate shaved ice and fresh fruit to top. I think my son ate least a quarter of it himself, it was smooth and not Icy. Good refreshing dessert.

It doesn't get crazy hot in the Bay Area but a nice refreshing dessert is always a good thing to have.

Simple One makes some delicious bingsu, fresh fruits and light ice. Perfect to soothe a hot day. Pair it with some delicious boba or sago and you have a perfect treat.

My favorite place for dessert and other snacks. I definitely recommend getting the Original Bingsu, as well as the Mango Sago w/ Mixed Fruit (my two favorites). Super decent pricing.

I had high hopes for another neighborhood dessert shop, but this wasn’t a good experience. Ordered the honeydew melon sago dessert: it was essentially an icy soup with bits of fruit. The sago was clumped together as if it was still thawing from the freezer. Never had such a poor Cantonese style dessert before.

Lastly the place was empty at 8p but every table was dirty. No one bothered to wipe down any of the tables.

Hard pass.
