I can now fully understand why my friends rave about this place and continue to go out of their way to come here just for dessert. Its worth it and more. The mango sago is probably their most popular drink (especially for those with a sweet tooth). For myself. I just found out that I can order for it to be less sweet next time. Which I intend to do (maybe 80%). The banana mochi waffle comes in a pretty big size, so you could share!! It has three waffles and a good scoop of banana ice cream. Their ice cream even tastes like banana! It blew my mind. I also heard from the cashier / hostess that they do intend to make their own ice cream in the near future. Yey! What makes this place super special is the ever friendly and helpful cashier / hostess. She comes by to deliver your drink / dessert and even stays a bit to chat awhile. When I mentioned my friends rave about the waffle, she remembered and asked about that topic. I also saw her talking to small children and asking their parents / sibling if she could give them a lollipop. It was sweet. So come by Aqua and check it out!!

Yummmmmmm Such a tiny little place, tucked in a weird little alley, but they have delicious desserts. If calories didnt exist and I wasnt going for that whole beach body thing, I wouldve tried everything on the menu. The girl that assisted us was so helpful and extremely friendly. As it was our first time there, she recommended that we get one of the signatures as they sell out. We had the banana cheesecake and it was absolutely delicious. So decadent yet not too heavy on the stomach. The banana flavor isnt that artificial weird taste that you usually get, the toppings were crunchy and the cheesecake on the bottom was perfect. Highly recommended. We also got the avocado shake that was also delicious. Ill definitely be coming back soon!

This place was highly recommended so I went here with my friend. I ordered something I would never (and have never) order elsewhere. Green milk tea with red beans (it originally was supposed to come with boba but they were out and it tasted better without it!). It was yummy! My friend ordered something with sago and I tried it. Those sago balls taste like soggy mini boba. Not really my cup of tea. The wait was about 5 minutes on a Saturday afternoon. Not too bad. Wish they had more seats for customers since this place obviously gets pretty crowded. I would come here again if I wanted some fruity drinks or unique drinks.

Wow... when did desserts cost almost as much as a meal? Me and my sister left room for dessert after dinner and we shared the strawberry waffle which pretty much has everything strawberry. I like the consistency of the mochi waffle, the gelato was pretty good and the strawberry pearls added a nice crunch, but they were just okay. It was pretty satisfying after our meal, and it wasnt too sweet. Overall, I liked it, but its definitely on the pricey side. I would go back for the mochi waffle.

This is an amazing place: boba drinks, desserts all high quality plus stellar customer service with Yoyo as the cashier! Were visiting SFO for medical trip all the way from OC, Socal, and weve been here 3 times already. Place is nicely decorated, has outdoor seating if in case inside is packed. They have refreshments section with espresso, coffee, water all complimentary...really nice. Yoyo is amazing...thank you for warm service and wonderful boba drinks Aqua Clubbb

Very hidden little gem in the downtown San Bruno district. However, it is well known in the local and outlying communitiies, so it gets consistently busy. The desserts are as good as they are presented, and while the place is rather small, it is tastefully decorated with cute light colors to match its sweet drinks and desserts. When it gets busy, expect to wait outside, and hopefully its not cold. Looking forward to going more times to try their drinks.

What We Ordered - Marble Milk: Grass Jelly, Sago and Coconut Milk - Mango Sago: Mango Slush, Sago and Coconut Milk - Chocolate Mousse Raving reviews and delicious pictures made us stop by. Taste or there lack of made us regret ordering anything. Everything was bland!!! Do their customers now know how true drinks are suppose to be made or taste? I was very upset. These overpriced drinks and dessert were not worth it the wait or money.

Overrated Mango Sago. The sago was a little too soft for my taste. I wished it was a little more al dente. On the other hand, the match tea with boba was good. The people here are great as well. Although, its a little pricey for Chinese dessert drink at $5.75. Arent Chinese lunch specials about the same price? Just something to consider and to think about when dropping almost $6 for a drink.

Not your standard boba spot. They have a set of drinks that are already fairly well prescribed with some options for mix-ins. They use tiny tapioca pearls that are easy to take up with your drink, and theyre fun to try and chew. The drinks themselves are tasty and satisfying. Service is quick and friendly too. If I were in the area, I would go back.

The absolute best customer service from the cashier girl who first took my order table-side to the other cashier girl who always remembers me because I bring all my friends there and always order the snow ball with honey boba and not agar boba. This place always has free water and hot tea while you wait or when youre hanging out there.

I cant speak on their desserts, but their honey green milk tea and matcha drink were pretty gross. The milk tea tasted like watered down milk. Nothing else. Just watered down milk.... To boot, the drink was $4.75 which is $2 more then any other place serving milk tea. Maybe the desserts are good, but dont get milk tea here.

Anything with BACON is good for me, mango not in season so didnt taste like mango and I forgot to tell them to give me 25% sweetness...their stuff too sweet for my taste... I dont crave sweet. DUDE THEY USE FRESH FRUITS EXCEPT SOME ARE CAN... GIVE THEM A BREAK IF THE FRUIT DOESNT TASTE RIGHT FOR YOU.

Two words: mochi waffle! Crispy and chewy at the same time, they do it quite well. Its a popular spot so there was a bit of a wait to place our order and awhile before we got it. We had a pretty big group and the place is tiny so we ended up sitting outside on some benches. Will be back!

Its kinda misleading I went thinking desserts as in cakes,pies, etc but its unique desserts I suppose and mostly bolba teas,ice cream (sorta), they are friendly clean and very welcoming but if you are going for a sweet tooth of pastry,cookies and that kind of deal, look elsewhere.

I love this place! Aqua Club serves Asian desserts, boba, and gelato. It took me quite a long time to find a place like this in the Bay Area, and Im so glad that I did! Golden Mango sago is a must have!!

Stephanie Gee

Really good mango sago drink, and the waffle was tasty. I think they may have added mochi flour to the batter because the waffle was slightly chewy. Yum!

Cant stop coming here for their marble milk and mango sago drink. Too bad they dont have a call ahead feature because this place gets crowded too often.
