Prices are reasonable. 5/5 highly recommend.
I can't believe I haven’t written a review on Google about this place yet. Zimó is amazing! It's a family and Asian owned business that is near MD Oriental Market and next door to First Choice BBQ. It's the shopping center on Falkenburg and Adamo. You've been living under a rock if you haven't been there yet. Especially if you love Asian food. It's seriously a best kept secret as well as a hidden gem.They make the best mango pomelo sago and cheese rose milk tea. They also have a great variety of baked goods and food items. They also have a great chicken sandwich and lunch deal that comes with a drink. That crispy fried chicken is so crispy, juicy, and tasty. They even make their own buns. They always seem to have something new everytime I go there. I honestly can't drive by without stopping.I have so many favorites. I've already mentioned the chicken sandwich, but they also have a shrimp sandwich that has fried jumbo shrimp. The basil popcorn chicken is also a fave. I love that you get plenty of fried whole basil leaves. The spice reminds me of the Chinese/Taiwanese 5 spice. I'm pretty sure that's the spice. It's absolutely crispy snd delicious and very difficult to pass up. The Sichuan fries are equally as addicting. The chili oil gives it a kick of heat. Very delicious! The Super Fruit Tea is also amazing and made with your choice of oolong or jasmine tea. The desserts and bakery items.. well I have many favorites. The rose cheese bun, crepe cake, ube loaf, matcha mochi red bean bun, and coffee bun that is filled with chocolate. They have an awesome cheese cake as well. Every quality ingredient has a natural flavor. Whether it's rose, matcha, or whatever the flavor. They bake everything fresh daily. They've added more food items which I can't wait to try.It's becoming a very popular place. Just read about them in all the Tampa blogs. The staff is always professional, and the owner is so sweet. She remembers me every time I see her. They continue expanding their menu which is always exciting. They have unique and tasty items. I wish I could say more. Definitely 10 stars for quality and taste. Oh, and they open at 10:00am. Don't miss it if you happen to be near that area.
I love coming here for there super fruit tea/Hawaiian tea. It feels really refreshing especially with Florida weather. The bread here is limited and it’s alright. Their best is pork buns, sausage bun, hot dog buns, and matcha red beans bun. I haven’t tried their food yet. The service is okay because there’s not enough employees, but I love coming here before work. Recommend coming here for some refreshing teas.
This place is lovely and there is lots of room to move around. The things they offer look unique it makes you want to try some of the things out. I tried one of the drinks and the Grapefruit and it made me want to hurl nothing. If took out the grapefruit out it would be way more tasty. I am a little nervous to try this place out again. Cool look place but not for me but you might want to be brave at stop by.
Go here! Full or hungry and you will still leave with food. I had the basil popcorn chicken and my partner had the fried chicken sandwich. Both of them were amazing. The baked goods are very good and different than ordinary baked goods. There are so many flavors and combinations of pastries you will want to try them all. Some are standard as strawberries and cream and some are very unique. There are some that have hotdogs and cheese in them! I had one with red bean paste and it was delicious. If they have cheesecake while you're there try it! The pistachio one was delicious. Highly recommend going here.
Any chance to hit up an Asian bakery will be taken, so Zimo was an easy and outstanding choice! This bakery/ cafe is so sweet it brings some rose to your cheeks and air to your lungs.I came here most specifically because I had heard about their Ube bread and I was dying to try it. Of course, when I went they were out! Though I felt quite sad, I rested my case by trying a taro mochi bread, red velvet cake roll, and brown sugar tiger boba.Most of these choices made up for missing out on the ube (as much as that can be made up for). The mochi bread was moist and delicate, it was super duper sweet and I don’t know if it is supposed to be that way but I enjoyed it. It was so sweet I couldn’t finish it in one sitting but that’s not a bad thing. The red velvet roll was actually the opposite- it was so un-sweet it almost didn’t have a taste. That was slightly disappointing.And the boba was just marvelous, as gladly anticipated! It was caramelly and creamy and the boba was soft chewy and melt in your mouth. Overall Zimo took my heart, and you bet your button I’ll be back to nab one of those ube loafs!
LOVE, absolutely Love this Bakery! Drinks and food is excellent. Especially the Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Sichuan Spicy Fries and the Superfruit Tea.
The cafe/bakery is super cute - I'm obsessed. Its always kept tidy and clean. They also have a pretty nice variety of pastries and all the ones I've tried so far have been delicious! The drinks are also really good, I almost always get a dirty brown sugar boba when I visit - my next favorites would be the mango tornado and taro milk tea!!
Very good bakery!! Ordered the curry chicken, taro, and red bean bun. All excellent. Well done and highly recommended!
Awesome Asian bakery! The first one I have found that serves CHEESE tea, yes cheese. The cheese is a tea topping that tastes similar to cheesecake, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The buns are incredible, and they have quite a lot of different types. My favorite is the pork floss bun (and this place puts pork floss INSIDE the bun as well). My son and boyfriend loved the taro mochi bun, which is packed with thick layers of mochi and taro inside a fluffy bun. The gyoza were yummy as well and service was friendly and quick. This place will be a new regular one for me. You won't regret visiting! P.S. the buns run around $2.50 a pop.
