My friend and I came here and it was super delicious! Never tried Banh mi before so it was exciting to try this! We ordered a tofu and a chicken banh mi and both were pretty good! And the decorations were also cool, I insisted in sitting in the Toki booth haha. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

The first time I went here. It was pretty good. However, the second time the quality went further south. Crispy chicken was decent. It seemed like they cooked it a little too long. Needs to have more moisture inside and just the right amount of crispness. They had it on point when they first opened. Drinks were good. It’s a good hangout spot with some games and they open late. However, food wise you’re better off just going to a Vietnamese restaurant. Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

So happy I stumbled upon Mo Tea. Atmosphere was very clean, welcoming, and played nostalgic 90s- early 2000s music, which went well with vibe of the rest of the restaurant. I am very picky when it comes to how my drinks are made. I believe Fefe is the name of the young woman that helped me. She was very kind, patient, and understanding. My drink was perfect. The Cajun fries were crispy and nicely seasoned. I feel like its hard to find a good banh MI. Mo tea's banh mi was very different from many I've tried, but definitely one of the best I've ever had. There was no pickled daikon in it to go with the pickled carrots. The carrots were more salty than sweet. I do wish the sandwich was a bit more loaded. I otherwise thoroughly enjoyed my entire experience. Will definitely be back and will definitely be telling everyone to pay a visit. Service Dine in Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I very rarely write negative reviews (this is the second time in many years). Tried smoothies here. Don't do it, he's terrible. The product is made from frozen fruits of unknown freshness, mixed with ice. As a result, after 5 minutes, everything starts to flake off. It doesn't taste good and looks disgusting. In addition, you may expect an upset stomach. It is a pity that the anticipation of a tasty and healthy drink, to put it mildly, did not justify itself :( I tried mango shake, smoothies both in Vietnam and in other countries, I understand what it should be like. P.S. I was not too lazy to return to tell the owner and asked for a refund of $ 7 (yes, it's worth a lot), but he said that everything was as it should be (!)

First time trying out this place and everything is 5/5 stars! When it’s come to the atmosphere…WOW. The led lights and wall art make it a welcoming fun place. They even have arcade games, and was told they will be adding more soon! We ordered a lychee blue raspberry icy with crystal boba, green apple jelly and passionately fruit jelly. Highly recommend it if you like a drink equivalent to an airhead. We also ordered and Thai ice tea with original boba/tapioca. Thai tea tasted like it was brewed traditionally having a strong deep flavor while still being rich and creamy. Staff is super friendly and are extremely patient if you have not ordered bubble tea before. They have a large amount of flavors unlike other shops, so it doesn’t hurt to ask if they will blend well together. They also have posters with the most popular drinks that they sell if you have no idea what you would want. Staff had nothing but smiles and kindness! Free Wi-Fi and a great music playlist. We will be making this our new regular spot! Also opened late till 12AM Friday and Saturdays. Great job!!!

Never knew this place existed until I searched for boba in my area. I tried their bahn mi and also ordered a fruit tea. It was so good that I ordered two more to take for my siblings! Highly recommend checking it out if you love authentic cuisine and supporting small businesses. Super clean dining area, amazing hospitality, and super tasty food (it looked so good and fresh that I couldn’t wait to eat so I dug in before taking a picture). All the ingredients were super fresh and crispy, and the bread was the perfect level of toasted. Definitely recommend checking it out and will absolutely be coming back for more. Service Dine in

I love tea! So I was stoked to learn my group had an event to try Mo’Tea & Bahn Mi. This place has a ton of options! DRINK: I ordered a passionfruit green milk tea -25% sweetness - with cheese foam topping. (My combo 3/5- my fault. Their recommendations 5/5) Next time I’d order this as a fruit tea or try a different combination for the milk tea. I originally wanted a black, but then couldn’t decide on a flavor. The lady at the bar recommended brown sugar, saying it’s one of the most popular. But, since I don’t like super sweet things, I told her I was leaning more toward peach black milk, since I like peach black tea. Then I changed my mind and went with Passionfruit green milk tea with salted cheese foam. It was good, but I agree with her; it would be better just as a green fruit tea. Unfortunately, I was craving milk tea. :) Of note, although it’s not mentioned on their menu in the store or takeout menu, you can order it with less sugar. I almost always get 25% sweetness, so that’s how I ordered this one and I think that was perfect for me. I forgot to say no ice- but that’s my bad. Cuz I always end up with the cheese foam at the bottom that I can’t get out of the ice and then it gets watered down. So if you’re like me and a huge cheese foam fan (theirs is excellent btw), order it with no ice so you’re left with foamy goodness! I can tell their teas are good. My combination was good but not great and that’s my fault. My combo 3/5, but their ingredients and recommendations 5/5 FOOD: I wanted to try one of the Bahn Mi, but the chef left yesterday to celebrate Chinese Lunar New Year in California- woot woot! Happy Lunar New Year Chef! So, I tried the fried tofu. (3.5/5 flavor, 5/5 tofu) You get to choose how spicy, so at first I said medium, but then she offered to put it on the side, so I selected that. I chose the sweet chili sauce, but she through in the boom sauce as well- both on the side. The fried tofu was cooked perfectly- crispy on the outside and soft inside. It came in a cute to go box- you know the ones you get from an Asian restaurants? The spice powder definitely has a kick, but I didn’t taste much salt, which is unfortunate. I think if I added salt it would be great. The sweet chili reminds me of mae ploy which I love. The boom sauce is a mayo based sauce. STAFF: (6/5) The staff is super sweet and extremely helpful. My advice if you are indecisive, get one of the drinks on their recommended menu- it’s on the wall next to the register. The rose milk tea with Sakura crystal boba sounds wonderful! I drank cherry blossom tea in Japan, and it was good, so I’d be stoked to try some again. AMBIANCE: (5/5) The place is super cute. I love the design with the neon lights and booths with spray painted cats playing with balls (I assume boba) on the wall. They have board games you can play. And their Wi-Fi is also cat themed =^.^= Hehehe Last but not least, they have a loyalty card where you get stamps for your drinks and after 10 stamp you get 1 free!

I was super excited to try this restaurant based on all of the glowing positive reviews, but my banh mi did not taste very good. mainly because of the chicken. I did order late in the day, around 9, so I expected the bread to be a little stale but not the chicken. disappointing discovery after making a 45 minute drive. it's a bit on the small side, but I wouldn't have minded if it tasted good. the cheese foam they use for their teas is great! they do use a lot of sweetener, so if you're not looking for a very sugary drink I suggest ordering half sweetener. the vietnamese coffee was nice and not too sweet.

Very tasty food here especially the banh mi. We were looking forward to grilled pork banh mi but had to settle for pork belly which was very very good. We also ordered crispy chicken and calamari rings which were also good. Will definitely go back to try out other items on the menu. Service Take out Meal type Other Price per person $10–20
