My husband really wanted a slushy after walking around downtown Raleigh. With a simple Google search, we found Budacai. He ordered the mango & let me have a taste, it was so refreshing & in this heat, perfect!
Parking isn't fun around here but the place itself always satisfies. Classic drinks and selection of tasty foods. Love the brown sugar milk tea but it goes quick/isn't always available.
This was my first time trying boboa, it was really good! I liked the taste of the drink and the boboa that they put at the bottom was really good as well. I did not try the food, and I actually don’t remember the names of the drinks we tried, but I think one was strawberry with brown sugar. Try it out!
PERFECT boba pearls!!!I bought the brown sugar milk tea with boba and the dragon fruit tea with mango stars. I’m very picky with my boba pearls and am loyal to my Madison, WI local Yummees, but I love the boba here. They are well cooked, and soft yet chewy. Most boba places don’t cook their pearls thoroughly, so I’m always excited when I stumble upon boba places that do.The brown sugar is super sweet (of course)! I will ask for 50% sweetness next time. The dragon fruit tea is a perfect blend of fruit and tea. It has a floral scent to it that makes it very refreshing. Some folks might not like the floral tastes in tea as it might taste perfumey, but I thought it was a good essence to this tea.
Ughhhh I really dislike leaving bad reviews, but I feel obligated to warn others about how bad the food is here. My salad was a pile of shredded cabbage with boiled (?) chicken and maybe some rice vinegar? I never throw food away, but it went in the trash. My friend’s food (a bowl with beef, rice, kimchi and salad) tasted like it came from a mall food court. But it was edible, so that’s cool.Also: the food isn’t cheap. Bad + expensive is a bad combo.Maybe the tea is tasty - but would recommend avoiding the food.
Ordered strawberry lemonade, milk tea with Boba, and raspberry tea. All three were great. Fast service.
The employees were very nice and the food was decent as well but not the best I’ve had.
It was my first time here and I ordered the large dragon fruit tea with boba and pomegranate popping boba. I wasn’t sure if I could mix two types of boba together but I was so happy when I found out I had that option to do so. I also ordered the mixed vegetable spring rolls and they taste as good as they look
Ok so I really wanted to like this place. I ignored the other reviews that said overpriced and underwhelming so please believe the reviews.I say the other reviews are absolutely correct.First we got the brown sugar milk and strawberry tea. The brown sugar milk tea was delicious and the only thing that was good. The strawberry tea tasted like drinking perfume yuck not for me or my husband or our daughter we all tried it big no from everyone. Got the general tso chicken and the chicken if that's even what it was.... is so chewy you couldn't break it down to swallow it. Eggrolls were generic. Orderd 2 sandwiches that were so full of veggies and an abundance of cilantro little to no meat we didn't even finish them. Spent almost 60 dollars here and left with literally a bad taste in our mouth. If you want to try Boba go to another place with a better price point and definitely avoid the food if you do end up going.
Asked staff for drink recommendations. My boyfriend disliked his drink and liked the one I got better so I asked if we could swap out the drink for the same one as mine they denied and said “no because the ingredients cost money”. I feel like they should’ve been more considerate especially because they were the ones recommending the certain drinks, guess we shouldn’t of trust them and well Obv everything cost money lol
