Great shaved ices on a hot day. Haven't had this in a long time n perfect on summer day. Share with a loved one

Not sure why there's so much hate for this location. My friend and I enjoyed our shared dessert and had a great time catching up. We ordered the Double Taro Signature, which came with a scoop of coconut ice cream and a scoop of taro, along with chewy rice cakes, red bean shaved ice, and grass jelly.

It's a Meet Fresh, so you know what you're gonna get as far as food is concerned, just like with any other chain. The cold grass jelly dessert is always my go to with taro balls and sweet potato balls. They were cooked well with the right anoint of chew and bite. Meet Fresh is something I'm always craving when I'm back in a city with lots of Asian food for some reason Although I don't usually go for them, the hot desserts are good as well. Warming, not too sweet, and not too decadent. It's nice to have dessert without feeling too guilty. The venue is well lit but is a little small, so seating is a bit hit or miss depending on when you go. Service is what you'd expect. Order, pick up your order, and bus your tray when you're done.

3.5/5 stars Ah. Love hate with meet fresh. Most times it's the only thing around that offers taro balls and Taiwanese dessert. But it just doesn't pack the same punch. I lived in Taiwan for a year and I miss it and the food all the time. Meet fresh is enough to satisfy the temporary craving but it just makes me miss the real thing even more. Tofu pudding needs more flavor and is a bit too coarse. Taro balls are tad too starchy.

I freaking love Meet Fresh and this location is no different. Came here in a sweltering hot day and this was such a great break from that. Was lucky enough to snag the last seats on a weekend afternoon. - Icy Grass Jelly Signature - Soft grass jelly with grass jelly flavored shaved ice all in a delicious creamer, what is there not to like? Eating this transports me back to Taiwan's hot summers. Every ingredient here is made to perfection and the quality is as good here as in anywhere else. - Icy Grass Jelly Combo A - Is there a difference between this and the first one? Not really but there is peanuts in here which I would watch out for, because it's not really made clear on the menu. I think instead of putting it as the description, this information should be said on the title of the menu item just so people who are allergic to nuts are made aware. I love Meet Fresh and this place is no different. I will say that their grass jelly dishes are becoming more and more expensive overtime, but you can definitely share a dish with someone else due to their big portion sizes.

I love Meet Fresh with my whole heart BUT -1 star because during my latest visit, they were about to close. And I wish they would have said something about running out of tofu pudding instead or just serving me the scraps Also the potaro balls tasted very off that day - almost like it's sour/spoilt, might have been because it's the end of the day already and it's been sitting there the entire day. But still, should've been careful. Am not giving them less stars because this is usually my favorite Chinese dessert spot in NYC. Just thought I'll provide some feedback here for visibility.

Their ice grass jelly are the best! Their herbal tea are a thirst quencher during the hot summer nights. The servers were friendly and took our order. There are several places to sit. Would recommend here for eating desserts!
