Happily stumbled across this cozy boba shop on accident. The staff will treat you very friendly and you’ll receive a high quality drink. I’m just not sure if it’s always that cold in there or what the purpose of that would be, but it was definitely noticeable during my brief visit

This was the best Matcha drink I’ve ever had, period! The cream is absolutely delightful and the Matcha is top-notch. Staff is very very friendly and the simplistic, modern design of the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. I went twice in the same day and can’t wait until I’m back in town to visit again.

The place is very chill,, I like the vibes. I get the fresh cloud mango drink. I really liked their house cream,, it was really nice. The drink was savory and sweet because of the mango. The first few times I got their drink, the house cream was there. It tasted like cream cheese a bit for me. But ive recently gotten the same drink 3 times at different dates and I can no longer taste the housecream. I am a bit disappointed,, maybe they changed the formula of the house cream. I hope they change it back.

sadly I was pretty disappointed with my drink The staff is very friendly and recommended the blended matcha. I figured I go for it since I'm always looking for new places to get matcha. It looks like a great drink and has great color, and the first few sips I really liked the rich smoothie like texture. But as I kept drinking all the ice chunks came out and it turned into an melting icy drink. The matcha also had good flavor but it wasn't blended well, there was a ton of unmixed matcha powder throughout the drink so every sip was dried out with the matcha powder. Overall, it just wasn't a great drink or something I would come back for

This place came recommended as the best boba around here, and since they knew the boba scene in Irvine, they told me this place was the closest thing and super competitive. That immediately got my attention because Irvine boba is elite. Pulled up to Hoji and the shop itself is beautiful. Super modern, clean, the plaster walls and whole design are just sick. The vibe alone sells it. The staff was really sweet too. I asked which drink they recommended and she told me to get the Mango Cloud with boba. I am so glad I listened. Before I even ordered, she was handing out little sample cups of their jasmine tea boba which was actually really good. That already gave me confidence. The Mango Cloud that thing was amazing. There were huge chunks of mango in there, the boba was perfect, and the drink itself had this airy, slushy, cloud type texture that was really fun. The mango flavor was so clean and not overly sweet. Just the right balance. I destroyed that drink. I finished it before I even made it to my destination which was literally four minutes away. That is how good it was. I wish this place was closer because I would definitely want to try their other drinks. But for my first experie

I love the ambiance in this cafe though it can be very busy at times. The blended matcha is really delicious as long as you forget the calories. The blended fruit teas are good options as well.

Absolutely LOVED the boba drinks we got at Hoji. The place looks and feels nice and the drinks were AMAZING. We got the Hojicha Blend, Fresh Peach Mango (Blended), and Fresh White Grape and Lychee Jade Tea. Prices are fair and service is quick! Located in the same lot as Afters Ice Cream. Not very busy when we came here at around 5:30pm on a weekday. Highly recommend!

Was 2nd in line, so it was exciting to finally be able to get my first labubu!!! Even had the opportunity to trade it for the one I wanted. The drinks are amazing too. My new fav is the matcha blend with Lychee. Tried the Thai as well since it was bogo and it was delicious. The drinks are so creamy. Thank you so much for the labubu!!! It was worth the 5 hr wait :). The owner has such a great support system!! Friends and family arrived before we were let in, and it felt so welcoming. I've met her when I first got my drink a week ago and was notified of this event. It's crazy how the universe makes things work out. The claw machine was fun too. I was able to help others win, but the labubu inside was too far into the corner to get. Overall, the grand opening was fun. I've never encountered such a thing before with free cake & cupcakes given out also a photo booth outside. Girl money win!!
