My family and I ordered the Hot Egg Coffee ($5.95), the Cold Egg Coffee ($5.50), and the Milk Foam Coffee ($4.50); this is also called Bac Xiu in Vietnamese. First off, the Hot Egg Coffee is worth the try! Yes, the cup is small, but it is so flavorful. The bitter Vietnamese black coffee flavor blends in with the egg flavor so well. The cold one is flavorful too, but I believe the hot had a bit more flavor than the cold. As for the Milk Foam Coffee, it just tasted like a regular iced latte, but not bad at all. Service was nice, and the decor was very cozy and looks like a great place to relax or study.

This place is decent. It costs $29.99 per person, and it’s a mixture of both a hot pot and a BBQ grill for a table. For the hot pot broths, there were only 2 options: spicy or mild. I wish there were more options for the broths, but the taste of both were just okay. As for the meat and veggie options, they were a good selection, but be warned that they are all frozen and not fresh. You can get as much as you want since it’s sorted like an all you can eat buffet. The taste of everything was decent; nothing special, but not horrible either. Service was also decent, but the employees basically looked like they just wanted to leave. Decor is okay, but some areas could’ve been cleaner. For the quality of the place, you basically get what you pay for. If you are on a budget and don’t really care about the freshness of the meats and veggies, I’d recommend. If you are looking for a better quality hot pot or BBQ, I wouldn’t recommend.

Service was nice and quick. The inside was very cozy and clean... looked like a good place to hang out or study. I ordered a large Sea Cream Jasmine Tea with Crystal Boba ($4.80 + $0.75 for large size + $0.60 for the Crystal Boba). The drink was so delicious! The mixture of sea cream and jasmine tea created a unique flavor that was not overly sweet. For a boba drink these days, the price was not bad at all, especially for a large drink. I would definitely come back to this 7 Leaves Cafe to get the same drink whenever I'm in the area for vacation!
