About

Customers often describe the matcha as flavorful and comforting, noting that it's not overly sweet but has a right amount of sweetness, especially in their green bean wheel cake ($4-$5), which they praise as fluffy and piping hot. Many note the quality of ingredients used, with one customer highlighting the owner’s commitment to using real matcha powder. While some flavors could be more balanced, the iced drinks are particularly appreciated during hot weather. The staff is friendly and professional, ensuring customers have a pleasant experience. Despite occasional issues like bitter mango green tea or whole yolk in wheel cakes, the overall atmosphere remains cozy and welcoming. Prices are generally considered good value for quality, with discounts like buy 3 get one free making it even more cost-effective. On the other hand, some find the place not very busy, but clean interiors and kiosks for ordering make up for this. The consensus is that Once More Zaipin offers a great matcha experience with genuine ingredients and friendly service.
