After standing in the lobby for 10 minutes with 7 other people in front of us we were told only order from app. And then 945 the app won’t allow us to order. They won’t let us order so 3 groups walked out

Terrible black sugar boba. Ended up throwing the drink out after 3 sips. Ill never visit this site again. Stick with the one in South Center Mall. Delicious!

They offer HK style egg waffles in various flavors. The Taro one was very good and not overly sweet; the chocolate flavor is another good one to try. You can add ice cream or mochi toppings to them as well. They have a wide selection of Bubble teas, shaved ice, cold desserts, and sweet snacks to choose from; would say mostly QQ themed. The cold desserts were overly sweet for me but they do have good toppings to add on such as the Taro Paste, QQ noodles, and Peanut Mochi. The downside is the long wait to order and to also receive your egg waffles; it took an hour total from waiting to order to actually ordering to getting all of our food (on a Sunday afternoon). Their in-store ordering system (one unit) is not very efficient. It’s ALWAYS best to order ahead through their mobile app (for everything else except the uegg waffles) since the egg waffles have to be ordered through a separate online site (TableFlash) anyways. Unfortunately, for me it’s not worth the long wait and there are other shops offering similar items with just as good quality.

This is low-key a solid place to do some work at. There are tons of comfortable booth seats, outlets along the walls, and it doesnt seem to get too crowded. Also, theres a bunch of bubble tea options. The background noise isnt too bad (think the occasional blender and an automated order announcement system aside from the typical cafe murmur). Feeling like trying something new, I ordered the Sweet Potato Taro Tofu Pudding on whim, and I probably wouldnt get it again. Nonetheless, Im glad I tried it. Next time Id probably go for a waffle dessert or shaved ice as nearly everyone around me got one. The milk tea was on point though. It tasted like actual tea.

The thing i saw on the picture and the item i got were two completely different things. The graphic contained taro balls, jelly, and pearls, but the order i got was far from expected. I received a bowl that did not contain any of the above instead i had some sort of jelly noodles inside of my bowl.

We had mango shaved ice and they charged us $16 for it. Over priced dessert options. Not worth it.

One of my favorite desert shop in downtown Bellevue. I recommend any combinations of taro ball, grass jelly and egg waffles.Their taro is tasty but not too sweet. I appreciate the freshness of taro balls and boba. Their quality and taste have been consistent throughout my visits and there are sufficient customization options.Dining optionsGiven the Covid-19 situation, only take-out and delivery are provided. You are able to order online to skip the line. They add enough ice to make sure it can survive at least 30min of drive without any sign of melting.

Traditional taste from Taiwan, very well decorated environment. Staff are new and need more time to training and ramp up but I believe it’ll just take a short time for them to get familiar.

This place is a cute hangout and has interesting desserts. Some of the popular items were already sold out.

Review №18

Great Taiwanese dessert. Chewy toppings, nice environment with lots of seats, bigger portion compared to blackball, more tofupudding choices, easy parking, and they have points system.The portion of the grass jelly is bigger than blackball but the toppings are the same size. So Meetfresh just put more grass jelly with bigger bowls and higher price. If you like grass jelly itself, this place is perfect for you! However, I feel like I can barely find any toppings in my bowl of grass jelly.There was not a line around noon time on Thursday. They ran out of mini Q taro already when we were there during lunch.The service was ok. After telling us the mini Q taro was sold out, they didn’t recommend any replacement.

Tons of options to choose from but I went with the tofu and boba pudding dish. Good value and also refreshing

I love their hot grass jelly because it tastes a bit less sweet than other stores. I also tried their sesame mochi which is soft and chewy and just the right amount of sweetness. I had herbal grass jelly drink while my friends had other bubble tea drinks and we all agreed they were a bit less sweet than other places. To me this is just perfect because I usually order 50% sweet anyway.I guess the only suggestion I have is to list out the toppings in their dessert instead of grass jelly#1, grass jelly#2. Every time I need to look at the pictures and guess what toppings are inside.Weekends seem to be more crowded especially at night but I think it is still a good place to hang out with friends

Review №23

A new bubble tea / dessert spot in the new Lake Hills shopping center. This place is insane when its busy, almost busier it seems than established rival HardWok across the parking lot.The place is very trendy, and it seems to attract the expected crowd - 80% asian (^▽^) lolThe drinks we got were pretty good, and made from real tea - something that has rightfully become the new standard finally in the Seattle area (sorry fake powder places! *cough* Oasis). Next time were in the area we look forward to trying some of the desserts; a lot of people seemed to get them.

The food is not bad but the straws is completely unacceptable. Look at this. They used cut rate straw that is not heat tolerant. It just melted in the cup! Who knows what kind of toxin and stuff are leaking in? Never order hot drinks here.

Review №31

Great grass jelly. Really chewy toppings (Q). Lots of options. They take carry out orders (sometimes).Compared to Blackball, Meet Fresh has more options for desserts, but less options for toppings. The grass jelly here is less sweet and is more herbaceous. I didnt see an option to get only cold grass jelly without frozen grass jelly though. The yam and taro balls were chewier (Q) than most other places. If they were equidistant to me, I would probably come to Meet Fresh, but they are still strikingly similar.

Review №57

I come here for the Taro Shave Ice which is probably my favorite desert...maybe almost ever (rivaling some places in Taiwan). So definitely 5 stars on that alone. The place is busy and popular for a very delcious reason. The ordering process is streamlined and there is a self order station or you can also order online (I havent tried that yet). The premise is clean and well kept with nice touches. Highly recommend this place for desert, easily the best in the area!

Good desserts. I have to say, though, that they need to come up with some smaller desserts for us old folks. I want to go back for the shaved ice/condensed milk/red bean etc, but Ill have to take 3 of me.Also, staff, please, please clean the mens rest room.

Delicious food. One person said the straw melted but what do you expect if you put it in a hot drink. The tofu doesn’t taste as original but it isn’t painful taste.

Review №66

If you are a person who is nostalgic, this place probably will be a good place to go although they barely have stores in Taiwan. Their grass jelly is great if with taro which is my person favorite. They also have some traditional fruit teas such as boba milk tea are good to try, not the best though.

Review №68

I like the hot grass jelly as soup cuz its less sweet than the red bean one. Although by default hot grass jelly menu comes with smaller taro/sweet potato rice balls, which is less satisfactory. You can substitute the bigger sized rice balls for the original.

Review №69

Original at 2018:Good desert, good reputation. But at current state, way too expensive and way too crowded at this place.Edit at 2020:Since I am living on unusual schedules I am finally able to come in time that avoid the crowds. However in my previous 2 orders, for some reasons all of my 2 drinks cups are leaky. I noticed they have swapped their cups at a certain point but getting my car dirty twice a month is not fun.

Silky tofu pudding to die for! Could make it a less sweeter but nothing like adding a little bit of water to solve the problem.

Da
Review №71

Had the cold tofu pudding with taro and sweet potato balls. The tofu texture was awful. Not smooth and silky like it should be. The sweet ginger sauce was weak. Not sweet enough and bland. Very watered down. Way over priced for the quality. My wife got the hot red been dessert. Came out luke warm. Unless the quality goes way up, it will be a one a done place. Theres no reason to come back to this place. The novelty of this place will bring people in, the quality will turn people off.

Review №74

Finally I made it. It was very crowded with snake shaped lines when I visited before. This time it is still busy but not that bad. Very comfy seats and great fresh dessert after my Korean Bbq. I ordered the purple rice congee with potato tapioca. The sweetness is about right for me and overall there is nothing bad I could say.

Customer service is sporadic, the wait time after you ordered is usually longer than other places. Last Wednesday, my order was prepared at the same time with the customer who came 5 minutes after me. she (chubby asian girl) even finished the latter order before she finished mine.

Review №86

There is NOTHING FRESH about this place. Most food comes from mixes, powders and cans. They microwave foods and beverages in plastic containers that do not even look like they are microwave safe. I did not wish to put any of what i saw them prepare into my body. If you care about your health, you shouldnt either.If they choose ab different name, I would skip eating them, but the blatant disconnect between the name and the actual stuff they serve is what earns them my 1 star.

Review №96

Impressive variety of mostly cold desserts.However, some bubble tea drinks are priced bit too high, OVER $8 taxed.Also I highly suggest they hire FOH staff who are more fluent in English AND more knowledgeable about desserts. I spent few frustrating minutes at the cash register trying to get more details about a dessert I was interested in and the woman could not tell me anything, and would not ask other FOH on the floor behind her either. No apolgies given, kinsa offputting and not welcoming.

Review №98

I was happy that MeetFresh finally open after quite a long time. I went there this Friday evening and no surprise its very crowd. However, the dessert did not meet my expectation at all. The warm grass jelly is NOT grass jelly! I should have called it a sugar water, or a water congee. Even when it turns from warm to room temperature, it is still pure water like instead of grass jelly nor the supposedly sticky mixed texture. Besides, most of the items are over-priced. Shaved ices are between $10.5-$12.5. Water congees cost $8.25 plus tax and tips... I dont know... but I may not come back again.
