Food is so good! Even though I wish the Boba was a little softer, it was still good! The family that runs the business are also so kind, enthusiastic, and well-rounded. So nice to see a successful asian restaurant in the downtown Joliet area! I highly recommend coming here :)

Our family had heard of this restaurant but never got around to trying the food. Today we DID!! We loved the service, the clean restaurant and the food was so Yummy especially the Spicy Pork Bar B Que plate! Full of flavor! We also enjoyed the Soy Chicken Garlic bowl with the tasty soy sauce. We will definitely be back especially because we don’t live to far from downtown Joliet. Always happy to support a small business in Joliet

On our way to the J & M Jewelers Feb 27, 2024 I told Kaweenie about this new Boba shop. She stopped by and purchased a Strawberry Bubble Tea and man. I HIGHLY recommend stopping at this spot. This alone makes me want to try their other refreshments. I forgot what she purchased but I did remember she said she loved it. Thank you so much and I’m looking forward to coming back to try your food.

Wonderful experience, the two young ladies working there are very friendly and took the time to explain the menu options, they really made the wife's day. Food wise everything was delicious, Spicy Buldak Chicken for the wife and Japchae Spicy Buldak Chicken for me, we both had the Brown Sugar Bubble Tea. This was our first time eating there, but hopefully not the last, even though we live over an hour away. We have highly recommended the restaurant to our friends and family.

Their menu is limited, but simple like In-N-OUT restaurant. We’ve tried their Japchae Bulgogi Beef and Japchae Spicy Buldak Chicken bowls, both delicious and fulfilling! I ordered their strawberry smoothie and added the popping boba. Super tasty and fun to drink! My husband tried their frappe and that was delicious as well! The ladies were a gem! They are very friendly and you can’t help, but smile. I would definitely come back, especially if they expand their menu because their bowl is that good and flavorful.

Food was overall really good. We got the bulgogi beef bowl with noodles and the spicy pork. Wanted the roll but they were all out. That was a bummer but good for them. Also tried the apple cider Boba. It was my first time ever trying so have nothing to compare that too. Good portions and flavorful. Only things I could complain about to be fully honest are the meat was quit fatty so if you're a texture person like me do not get the pork bowl and I wish it was a bit saucier. But besides that we were happy. There is parking in the back too.
