though it’s almost closing when we got here, The owner was very nice and accommodating. The store is pet friendly. the signature HIV drink was the best! Cops activity in ESSJ was entertaining too.

Just had the New Lavender Coffee - honey bunny

So good, if you like coffee I’d recommend stopping by. It wasn’t overpoweringly strong, or sweet, it was a good balance of flavors. I got no toppings, so worth it.

Owner is super nice and their dog is super cute too!

Everything about this place is perfect. Clean store with a comforting atmosphere, and absolutely incredible boba options with creative names. The pearls melt in your mouth and burst with flavor, and the tea is the perfect sweetness. The big menu is a little daunting, but they'll patiently work out the order for you if you don't know what you want. It's pricey, and drinks are on the order of $8-10, but definitely worth a try.

The owner is absolutely amazing. They will make a drink for you and you don't even have to pick if you're indecisive.

I came in to escape a power outage at home and ended up going on a flavor journey I will never forget! The man at the counter was the most exuberant, kind person I have seen serve boba. When I said it was my first time there he said he would pick the drink for me—if I didn’t like it, it was free.

I swear this guy is psychic because he knew EXACTLY what I needed and it wasn’t even a drink I was considering. Dude knew me better than I knew me. Plus the names are all a treat as much as the drinks themselves. XD

The new boba flavor Coco-this-nut is one of the most delicious coffees I have ever had. Try this place out if you like inventive and unique drinks.

Great shop with awesome service, great drinks (that had pretty hilarious names) and desserts! The stories told about each drink make the experience even better! I definitely would return again!

I've never had cheesecake this good in my life. There's nothing in this store that you won't absolutely love. Tony is a friendly mind reader, he knows what you want before you do. Nothing better than sucking deez nuts and eating AWESOME handmade cheesecake. I just brought my friend here for the first time and now he's obsessed.

Delicious drinks and desserts. Had the “boba virgin” and “fashion in heaven” 😁

Accepts credits cards except Amex. Open till midnight on sat night!

If you want to support a business that is passionate about what they do, this is it!

I really enjoyed the boba virgin drink that I received. I didn’t choose it. This is one of those places where you sometimes come in and just spin the wheel and see what you get.

Many of the toppings and such are fresh cut fruit as well, not from cans.

Plenty of other choices to choose from outside boba like gelato, slushes, and what looks like mochi but ain’t.

My first experience here was uh.. how do I say it, surprising. The owner is very communicative, which can be good or bad depending on if you're an introvert or extrovert. This review is going to be focused on the coffee beans as well as 1 flavor of their gelato. I ordered a #1 iced black coffee and a #12 mojo affogato with the flavor being "stranocciola hazelnut with nutella swirls".

From the #1 iced black coffee alone, the taste is comparable to Peets Major Dickason's blend in terms of sour and bitter balance. It was listed as Americano but it wasn't diluted with water. Just black coffee and ice! Plus, it wasn't full of ice like Starbucks. It's equivalent to picking the light ice option at Starbucks. The cup size is also large, I estimate around 24oz. It is a little on the higher end in terms of price but the beans are good quality so I don't mind. The caffeine content also seems decently high.

Onto the #12 mojo affogato - the pricing listed as $2.50 is just the affogato topping alone, the gelato is a separate $4.10 charge, so if you order it please be aware of that before getting mad at the owner. He did explain to me in advance, so he is not out to cheat customers with the price listed on the board. Taste wise, nothing to complain about. The hazelnut nutella gelato was delicious alone, the chilled affogato topping was worth the extra $2.50 as it did not melt the Nutella gelato.

Remember to ask the owner how he prices things before you order - I've seen plenty of bad reviews and it was because they either didn't read or didn't listen and somehow ended up with an expensive bill.

There is a $0.50 charge when using credit cards when the item is under $10 (and it's listed on the cash register so read it first).

Ah, there is also a really cute dog that wanders the shop. I don't mind but people with dog allergies should be aware. The dog, named Fashion, is extremely friendly and docile. I'd come here just to pet her haha.

I've also included my receipt if any of you all are curious of the price breakdown.

Overall, it's a nice little shop and I recommend people visit. Just be aware of pricing before you order.

Also the owner promises a refund if you don't like the drink he made, so if you don't like the taste you get your money back.

Came here last Tuesday night with my cousin. We didn't really know what to get, but Tony made us both surprise drinks and recommended his chocolate cheesecake. He made my cousin the Boba Virgin and made me the Fashion is in Heaven drink. It was delicious and refreshing! Also, I loved that each drink has a story that goes with the name. Very unique! Ambiance was cozy and it was a cool place to hang out.

Had an amazing first experience. Quick service with a variety of sweets to order. The owner I believe made us the special new drink, was good ! Called no game ? Very different, was not overly sweet and had many toppings to experience. Gelato with waffle was tasty, tastes like other artisan gelatos I've had. Service was amazing! So sweet and caring about our order being fulfilled. Worth the late night trip. Great value with a variety to choose from. You don't want to miss this spot.

Drama Queen Fruit Tea and Fine Apple in the picture. Delicious and inventive drinks hand crafted by Tony. The fruit teas are fresh and not overly sweet. The bursting boba is a must! Lots of room for large groups, a restroom available in the back. Plenty of parking in the shopping center. Chill atmosphere.

The boba was sooo good! The crème brûlée was also very yummy. Also, there is a cute little dog that walks around as well 🙂

Sweet Gelato Tea Lounge is managed and run by one man with a clear passion for his business. The drink names are fun with a pretty wide selection of gelatos. There's also an adorable dog named Fashion! Make sure to try the matcha boba.

Sweet Gelato Tea Lounge is a must go to! By far the best boba in town, not to mention the unique drink names. If you're not sure what to order ask Tony for a recommendation, can't go wrong with that.

Excellent smoothies & drinks and the Gelato were so good (coconut & coffee especially). The owner is such a personable guy and has great stories to share about his creations - he truly has passion in what he does!
Definitely worth the visit!
