We were walking through Charleston and were dying in the heat. We walked into this place to get out of the sun and were pleasantly surprised. Friendly Staff, delicious Boba tea, authentic Vietnamese food. Very nice atmosphere. Most importantly, their AC worked.
surprisingly don’t have any pics considering i go every week, but yes i go every single week without fail. one time i even had a 10 day streak of going (not counting when it was closed on tues). favorite and best boba place to go to down here. i go up to ny every break and was sad once covid started and i wasn’t able to visit much anymore, meaning no more boba until i found this place. every drink i’ve tried has been good and pho is great too. highly recommend trying this place out. love ding sm
We arrived in Charleston late in the afternoon and just wanted to get a quick bite. This place is just a couple of blocks from the City Market and offered an alternative to Southern cuisine or seafood, which we had been eating for days. It's a simple place with not a large menu and we were not expecting more than something filling. We were surprised and happy to get 2 excellent bowls of pho and reasonably priced to boot.
We followed the reviews and this place didn't disappoint. If you you are looking for some good Vietnamese food (Pho and vermicelli bowls) this is a really good option. Quick and friendly service too.
Came here with high expectations cause the store is from Taiwan and I thought it would make it tastes more legit.But the boba milk tea we ordered tasted like water and the kiwi black tea was sour and didn’t taste fresh. The only good thing was the service, and a large place allowing people to hang with friends.
One of the best Pho in Charleaton. Delicious broth and right spices.
Menu is massive. Lots to choose from. We tried the boba and it was delicious! Service was fast and there were places to sit down and hang out.
I came here due to a recommendation from a friend. I got pineapple green tea with blueberry bursting balls. It was great! Very well lit, comfortable atmosphere. They do a student discount so I got 10% off of my order. It was reasonable for a large size, I think it was around $5 after tax (We got two drinks technically so it was around $10 for both). Service was quick. Super yummy, I would visit when I’m in the area again!
I almost always come to Ding to get my boba and I normally bring my dog (leashed). It has never been a problem before but today was a different story. They said they no longer allow dogs inside unless they are service animals, which mine is. So I sat down and my dog laid down at my feet not bothering anyone when the girl came up to me again and said I couldn't have my dog inside because some staff were allergic to dogs. Which I completely understood and went outside. My issue is the fact that when I was brought my food, the girl loudly said "ugh I hate dogs, I don't like that at all". I understand if you don't like dogs but when your being outwardly rude it makes me not want to come back at all even though I do like the boba.
According to the 2-year-old, the only place in Charleston for boba tea. Great pho soup, too.
