The worst boba I’ve ever had, the boba itself was mush and not chewy at all like typical tapioca is. If you are looking for real boba do not go here. There’s a place next to the Trader Joe’s in old town that is good.
Was excited to try this place. I got a plain green tea with boba (because I really like the taste of tea without sugar or other flavors masking it). The tea flavor was really subtle/weak and the boba texture was not good (too mushy). 8$ (with tip) for a mediocre tea was disappointing. I didn’t even drink all of it because it simply wasn’t good. Might give this place a second try? Maybe today was an off day. Also I didn’t try the food which might be better.
Really enjoyed our bubble teas from here. Nice spot and spacious with a good vibe. Tastes were great, and they allow customization of sweetness which is great. Definitely will be coming back!
The tea and food I got were rather bland. The mango milk tea (pictured) tasted like mango but no tea flavor at all. You can tell it has the pre-mixed artificial taste. Boba was mushy.The vegan vermicelli bowl (pictured) with fried tofu and seitan was alright. But at a total of $19, I’d rather just go to a real Vietnamese cafe.I hope to give it another try and get a more traditional tea flavor to see if it’s any better, and maybe find another meal I like. I appreciate the ladies behind the counter and I appreciate the availability of vegetarian and vegan options.
I appreciated the staff taking my order, who was meticulous in making sure my specifications were noted. However, I'm afraid the two beverages I ordered (as well as four others that my friends ordered) were really, really terrible.I ordered the Brown Cow with lactose-free milk, no ice, 25% sugar. The beverage tasted like milk flavored water with a hint of plastic. There was no tea flavor at all, let alone brown sugar. The second beverage I ordered was the Train to Bangkok, also with lactose-free milk, no ice, 25% sugar. It had a hint of Thai tea flavor, but was also otherwise, far, far, far too watery. Neither was much consumed.I would encourage a staff to revisit their recipes and the ratios. You can usually tell if a drink is too watery just by looking at the consistency. All six of the beverages we ordered today suffered from the same problem.
The tea and food are amazing! I highly recommend the vegan bahn mi.
Best boba in the Alexandria/Arlington area, and I’ve tried nearly all of the options out there. Perfectly flavored and quickly prepared. Always an enjoyable experience! Plus they offer rewards.
Just recently discovered this cute spot. Highly recommend trying their Spilled the Tea drink. Love it!
The little star mango jelly was super cute!
I like how they make the Boba tea fast and that it's soo good ??
