The owner KJ is super sweet and amazing!! Gave recommendations and is really nice. Also didn't say anything when we did work here until closing. The boba is good as always, but the food was amazing. I was not expecting the food here to be this good, all the portions are huge too! The popcorn chicken is a must, and the teriyaki chicken and curry chicken are also good. recommend!!
Absolutely love this place and location. I just went today and everyone is so nice and attentive. They welcome you as soon as you walk in. Their bubble tea is so good. I also got a chicken Bao bun which was so good. The staff recommends different items on the menu which is so helpful! This place is a regular for me!

Great Vibes. The Staff is Really Sweet,The Food Is Always Hot And never takes too long.
On my search for the best matcha in Hoboken so had to come try Vivi's and wow, the ambience really wasn't there around lunchtime hour....some tables even looked cramped together almost like a storage unit near the entrance and by the main sign, inside...the music was also so loud, night club loud. Service was fine, I guess but don't expect a warm welcome - just place your order, it will be made, announced it's made and that's that. Matcha was tasty but I'd rather give my business to other welcoming places.

Me and my sisters came here to get some bangin bubble tea and off course it did not disappoint!! We then left to go find some good ramen, and then ended up coming back to realize that they have Ramen and rice bowls. The bubble tea, Ramen, and pop corn chicken are my absolute favorites!!! 10/10 definitely would recommend to stop by whenever you are in Hoboken. The owner JJ is so cool and friendly, thank you for helping us out when we were indecisive about what to get from the delicious menu.

Amazed!!!! I was in the Hoboken area passed by the storefront which really wasn't much catchy to the eye. Decided to give it a try. I ordered fried pork cutlet over rice with Japanese curry sauce on the side and a strawberry frozen drink. I can truly say for it being my first time visiting the establishment will be visiting more often. The meal was cooked to perfection the staff very happy and friendly. 5 stars straight thru.

Don't let the name, fool you! OK, so I always thought this was just a bubble tea store, but they also have some of my favorites, Japanese curry plates, Ramen, Katsu, and rice bowls. And to top it all off, they have spam Musubi ($5.00) which is what I'm here for today.... So let's talk about the spam, musubi, standard size with fried spam on rice with a mayo and sesame seed, dressing wrapped in Nori and topped with ginger. Nothing super special, but it was Ono for being 10,000 miles away from home. Interior seating for 20, friendly service,, and they have free Wi-Fi all while playing Japanese anime. I definitely want to come back and try some of their other entrées on the menu. Feel free to follow me on Yelp and visit me on X / Instagram @noodlesoupr

The Staff were very friendly and super helpful. I got the regular and spicy tonkostu both were awesome and the broths were great. The vibe in the restaurant is also very nice
It's been 30 minutes waiting for my order. Still not ready. Employees are very rude and disrespectful. They are threatening to delivery drivers. I will never go there again.

Please bring back the old popcorn chicken!! It looks like they changed the recipe for popcorn chicken - now the pieces are chunky with excessive breading and frying. No longer the authentic Taiwanese popcorn chicken!!!

The food I ordered was cold inside, and tasted stale. I got diarrhea the moment I came out from the restaurant. Will never come back again?

Place is great when I get my cravings for their menu. Let’s just say it hits the spot and they don’t miss with their food and bubble teas!! lol staff is always on the money with my order so no complaints there, whatsoever. Do yourself the favor, and try them out. Thank me later!!

I got the flaming brown sugar and it was really good. I got it with less sugar and less ice and it was perfect. The smallest size was the right amount. The brown sugar boba were sweet, melt in your mouth and not too hard and not too chewy. They have paper straws which are great for the environment but very difficult to poke a whole through the plastic topper. I was struggling and it messily got the straw through the plastic. The drink with tax cost $7, normal price I have seen for boba around here. The staff were really nice and friendly. The place has a decent amount of tables inside to sit and a restroom. They also have a bunch of food options.
Staff were very nice and quick
