Very close from where I work and I love their drinks especially for the price. I recommend the Thai milk tea, taro milk tea. Two of my personal favorite. They also give you choices of sugar levels. If you don't like too sweet 25-50% is perfect.

I love the boba and the customer service! My rating is so slow but the way the staff treated and discriminated against a customer who appeared to be homeless. The man wasn’t bothering any customer and the other customers did not appear to be bother. The young woman in the blue shirt seemed to be the only one that seemed highly against the customer sitting down on the couch drinking his tea. I know that all businesses have the right to refuse service to everyone but I think it’s unfair that a paying customer is discriminated against. They told the man to go outside although we know the Texas heat has not been the best. I’m truly disgusted and I’m sorry to the other employees who have to work with this young woman.

Very cute boba shop! Doesn't look like much since it's in a gas station parking lot, but this is a nice spot! The atmosphere is very modern, without too many decorations. There are tables, but it looked like many people ordered to go.This shop has a lot of tea options as well as a lot of add-in options. I tried the mango green tea with mango popping boba and it was very refreshing. The regular boba was great as well and the watermelon green tea actually has watermelon in it! I'd like to try some of the milk tea flavors next time.Parking: Not a ton of parking, but we didn't have to wait for a spot.

Clean facility and nice indoor and outdoor seating. I only drink Taro Milk Tea and if you do too, then this might not be the place for you. It just tasted a little unmarried. I would love to come back and try one of their signature drinks that many people come here to enjoy. But as far as Taro, this might not be the place for you :)

This is not a quality boba tea place. Their scale for sweetness is completely off and tastes artificial. I’ve never been here before and ordered through the phone for pick up. I got the strawberry green tea at 50% sweetness and it turned out to be more like 150% sweetness. Not once during the phone call did they mention that this drink is generally very sweet and if you want 50% sweetness maybe get 25%. I called to say something is wrong with my drink and they were very rude and said sugar conscious individuals get 0% or 25%. I said I was trying to be sugar conscious when I got 50% and someone should have warned me when I ordered if 50% meant something else. Very disappointing and a waste of money. Will not be back.

I want to like this place so badly but it's just not for me. The atmosphere is very nice and the workers are sweet- but everytime I go the sugar amounts are inconsistent and the tea is just rather disappointing. I will say, their matcha is good, and their boba is really nice because it's not too sweet which I enjoy. However, I've also tried the black milk tea crema and oolong which both tasted way too concentrated/over seeped, and then previously tried their taro at 50% but it tasted like there was no sugar :( they were super kind- did a remake but then it was too sweet LOL.

I had the Thai tea (made vegan- no condensed milk or powdered milk) with tapioca pearls. It was honestly the best boba tea I've had in my life. Amazing stuff!

They have the best boba tea and any drink I’ve ordered has been absolutely delicious regardless of the drink. They know what they’re doing there especially with the kind of boba they make.

I can't stop coming here. Their coffee milk tea with coffee jelly is incredible; I couldn't find it anywhere else in Austin. Overall they have a lot of options, including smoothies and other tea types.

Soooo good. I've had milk tea at nearly a dozen different boba tea places over the years and this might be the best??Actually, I'm pretty confident in saying this is the best. Kills me that I don't live in Austin now, knowing I can't get this every week.
