A small family owned establishment. You'll get your normal tea/coffee with boba of without, sweet or not sweet. Again, there's better places but for a local business this is acceptable. I have no real complaints. If you're in Aiea near here and I. The need of a sweet drink or a little caffeine. Stop by and enjoy.

One of the best milk tea with boba(momi) in the world. I usually go to this Coffee or Tea at Mccully shopping center but I never knew it was here at Pearl Kai. I was so glad to happen to find this store!

You can taste the espresso in the Iced Mocha. I like that. Under $10 for two is great too. Cute place; I'll be coming back.
