The Tofu one is so good reminds of the one we have in the Philippines.
My friend ordered the volcano it was like halo halo but less sweeter but very creative.
The only issue i have pls more cleaning and check and put a note to tell personnel if their bathrooms needs cleaning.

I have walked past this place many times and I finally decided to try it. When we got there the guy taking our order said there was a 10 minute wait on ordered and aggressively tapped on a sign above him that said there was a wait. He was already not inviting but we wanted to try it so we said it was fine..

We ordered a Thai tea shaved ice and Thai tea smoothie. The shaved ice was not impressive at all.. it melted into itself so fast and hardened which made it super hard to eat with the plastic spoons they provided. It was like chilling at a rock and it had no flavor.. there were little black dots in the ice which told us the shaving machine needs to be cleaned so we just disgusted the whole thing all together.. the Thai tea smoothie was okay, also lacked flavor and it all just seemed way over hyped.. won’t be back :/

The famous Taiwan Franchise's only store in San Diego County. The famous grass jelly and taro ball are always awesome, while I prefer the tofu pudding as a smoother choice of sides. The egg waffle is great as it's crispy enough and well with the sweet desserts and drinks. The milk tea drinks are generally good while the match latte is so strong in matcha but lacks the taste of milk. They open until late at night, might be a good choice after a heavy dinner

Decided to drive 30 minutes to check this place out! Definitely over hyped. As I got there a guy put a sign up that there was a 15-30 minute wait and he aggressively hit the sign as I was ordering. I understand there’s a wait time but I already drove 30 minutes. Anyways $16 for a shaved ice that looks nothing like advertised. I HATE giving 1 stars but I literally paid $16 for WATER. It melted so fast and had no flavor whatsoever. The boba was also hard and just bad overall. Not a welcoming place.

Perfect icy treat on a hot day!

I’ve missed out on Meet Fresh and having just tasted this for the first time this weekend makes me feel so late in the game lol.

We were out here visiting family and my niece treated us to have Meet Fresh. This Taiwanese chain is located on Mira Mesa Blvd near Daiso and H Mart.

We shared a “Mangoberry”, which was half Strawberry and half Mango shaved ice (like a Japanese Kakigori) with topped with a vanilla ice cream. This reminded me of Guppy Tea House that I used to visit 20 years ago in the OC. I liked the ice because it had a “fine” texture (not as fine or sharp as snow cones but a delicate-for-your-tongue and stays-icy texture).

My niece ordered one of their Icy Grass Jelly with taro balls, mochi and sesame balls. Unfortunately, I was not a fan of it as the grass jelly had a slightly bitter aftertaste.

There were plenty of seats when we came.

Orders were done via the kiosk. And it was super packed inside this shop.

They also had drinks like iced teas, smoothies, and egg waffles available.

Definitely worth a visit and thankful my niece took us here! Looking forward to my next visit!

The self-service kiosk didn’t have an option to add taro paste. I ordered the Double Taro Grass Jelly, which should include a scoop of ice cream and a scoop of taro paste. Instead, I received only a scoop of ice cream and some sliced taro chunks! This is not what I wanted. If taro paste wasn’t available, I should have been informed when picking up my order instead of having it replaced without my consent. Very disappointing!

My first visit was not pleasant at all. It took me 30 min to place my order. I wanted to order mangoberry shaved ice but it was not in season. Then, I tried to order taro mocha shaved ice and it wasn’t available either. I ended up with Taro Volcano and Jasmine green milk tea. I was going to use an E-gift card but the kiosk wouldn’t take it. I ended up have to order with a staff all over again. They were pricey for the quality and taste.

Meet Fresh has a huge variety of desserts. So hard to pick one! They have options from light to heavy to sweet and semi sweet. They make you order from the POS tablet, which is ok with me because I know how to operate it. Don’t feel obliged to tip either since we are ordering ourselves. I will die on this hill. But to the humans who don’t know how to use it, it holds up the line. I have heard that the customer service is trash, but I got lucky on my visit and the employees welcomed us. The price is def a bit up there for what we get. But Meet Fresh is a once in a while treat. Inside seating is nice. Can talk and chill for a bit. They have free WiFi

I read about the sewer smell….. it did smell a little bit like the toilet had a leak or something. Maybe it wasn’t as bad as a different day.
