Pandan Leaf

This place has good food and dessert. I had the opportunity to talk to the owner. Nothing better then to build a relationship with customers. I will come back.

Love this place! Best Thai tea and waffles. Tea is always fresh and the perfect flavor. The staff is super nice and friendly. The waffles are the perfect snack and I think are the Vietnamese waffles that are simple street food, perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle. Addicted to the place, come at least once a week.

I love love love their waffles! They are crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. It’s always made to order so it comes out hot and fresh.
The service is always great and the employees are pretty friendly.
I ordered a strawberry mango tea and it came out too sweet. I noticed whenever the older lady is working she makes it perfectly, but when it’s other people. it always come out too sweet. I sometimes have to pour in some water in order to balance out the sweetness. The flavors are definitely there, but next time I’ll ask for less sugar or something because I’m not trying to walk away with diabetes.

I really need to remember to eat here more because the sandwiches are always so delicious! The flavors are perfect, the bread is crunchy outside and soft inside and the staff is prompt and friendly.
The milk tea is great too! It has a subtle floral flavor that makes it stand out.

Yummy! Order a Thai tea with tapioca and my hubby ordered a mango passion fruit with tapioca. Both tastes awesome. Didn’t try their pandas waffle yet but will come back for sure next time but the baba tea is yummy! They have different verities of drinks hat I am sure anyone will enjoy :)

Pandan Leaf is pretty good. I find that it gets diluted very fast. So, I wouldn’t mix the ice up too much. I like the fact that it’s close by. I don’t have to go all the way to Bellaire just to get che. Oh and they have stamp cards now, which is a plus.

Come here for the specialty dessert drinks, NOT the tapioca.
I’ve been here several times but haven’t been too impressed. The staff is nice but the drinks are more expensive than every other tea shop, come with a ton of ice by default, and aren’t that good in general.
But most importantly, the tapioca used here is terrible. Every time I’ve come here, they haven’t been chewy and many of them were so soft that they fell apart immediately like jello. Avoid if you’re looking for boba /​bubble tea.
Milk Tea with tapioca ($ 4.50) — kinda interesting for milk tea, stronger/​more distinct flavor than typical boba shops which I liked at first but later didn’t. Came with giant ice cubes that took up ¹⁄₃ of the cup. Horrible tapioca pearls. More expensive than other milk tea from other shops.
Avocado Blitz ($ 5) — also really interesting taste, and pretty good. Consists of avocado chunks, tapioca, jelly, coconut milk, and shaved ice. Lots of stuff to chew on in here and I really liked the avocado chunks and coffee jellies. Unfortunately, poor tapioca and large chunks of ice ruined the drink. Next time I’d ask for no ice in this.
Cranberry Tea with tapioca ($ 5.70) — way too sweet, expensive, poor tapioca. No good.
If you want good boba milk tea, get out of Vintage Park and head to nearby Heavenly Beverages for WAY better tea, great tapioca, and lower prices ($ 3 – 4).

No matter how many times I get the avocado blitz, the unique pandan flavor and avocado creaminess always satisfies. Tip: mix well!

I ordered from the menu, for exactly what I was expecting. Very good. A little pricey, but I think it’s because of location. Will I go back, most likely! I want to try other things. Need a more detailed menu.

When ordering, make sure you ask for Boba (if that’s what you want) before they make your drink. It seems family owned and the father was super sweet and very helpful. They don’t have a tip line on their receipts for cards, so please take cash. Both the drinks and food are delicious and I will be returning.

I must say that their smoothies are not my favorite. But their exotic flavored drinks are the best in town. My favorite is the Paradise and also the Passion Jackfruit Tea. Their flavoring is spot on. I prefer them over the other chain Bambu any day.

STRAWBERRY MANGO TEA
I love this tea. I always get it when I’m in the area. The fruits are always fresh and sweet and when fused with the tea. it’s just a perfect fusion! The only issue I have is the consistency. Depending on who makes the drink, sometimes it’s overly sweet and sometimes it’s perfect.
WAFFLES
These waffles are perfect! I love it when they’re hot and crispy. They’re sweet, but not too sweet. i love the crisp outer layer and the soft inner core of the waffle.
Overall experience: I always drop by when I’m around the area. Sometimes the best dessert after a meal is a nice drink and a yummy waffle :]

My wife and I have been coming here more regularly. They recently updated with TV screens with the menu on it. Also took away some items from the menu. The cost has gone up since spring 15. but don’t let that stray you away from here.
They have a great selection on drinks and desserts. Best part is they will customize you drink to your liking. For example they have taro drink. I asked if they can do a taro coconut. Same price but customized to my likings.
–ask for a reward card
–drinks are one size.

I was really craving some good bubble tea in spring for a long time! I found this place accidentally while having brunch in the vintage park area. I agree with another reviewer here that the menu is not well presented. I ordered a strawberry mango bubble tea. it was strange to say the least. when I first saw it, I thought it looked kinda healthy .but it didn’t taste that good or feel healthy .I would rate this average for bubble tea. I’ve had better!

My friends and I stopped in for some cold drinks and we were all really happy with this place. They serve boba tea, exotic drinks, waffles and some sushi rolls. We just got drinks though. They were refreshing and unique! The service was amazing! That’s what really stood out. The people here were so nice, knowledgeable and accommodating. I’d love to give them my business again :)

I always get the Paradise when I come here. Asked for less ice today and when the drink came out, there was no coconut water in it. When I asked the lady at the front, she gave me a confused look. When I asked again about the coconut water, she just nodded and took my drink back and added coconut water… weird for someone who works there to not know what goes in the drink. Also got 2 pandan waffles. The flavors are okay, waffle isn’t as crunchy as I would like it.

Came in two days ago. No menus or anything. No posters on the wall to tell me what I should order. Asked why and i just got giggles. hmmm.
I ordered a thai tea with boba as it’s my usual at other places. $ 5 for a drink… I usually pay 2 – 3 at other boba places but I guess it’s expected being at the vintage and they have no competitors around like you would in bellaire.
Drink was good, boba was good texture and flavor but wayyyyyyy too much ice.

And the drinks are really good and the waffles are awesome, and the owner very nice :)

Walked in at exactly 8:51 and double checked the hours sign, which stated closes at 9. I was immediately greeted with a «we are closed». I asked the employee about the hours sign and then he changed his reply to «sorry we already shut down all the stuff».
Now I understand employees wanting to leave early on a Sat night but they had clearly started shutting down way before. Making a drink for paying customers apparently would take up too much of their time. I guess it’s a business that doesn’t want business.

I love the fact that it’s not the typical boba place. All their drinks are unique! Instead of just tapioca, they mix things up. I love their Avocado Blitz, it’s made with real avocado and you get to see/​taste all the chunks of avocado they add in there. It’s very filling on it’s own!
The Hawaiin Beef Slim Roll is pretty good. The meat was dryer than I expected but still tasty. The sauce it comes with definitely adds to the delicious flavor.
The Pandan Waffle is just like any other waffle except their version has a green tint to it and it’s thinner, therefore, it’s crunchy and crispy.
