Great…read moreservice, the quality of the food was delicious, the portions were big, and the price points made sense. Walked away only spending $30 for a great and filling casual meal! I had the hawiann poke bowl which was perfect!! Really filling and flavorful and delicious. The salmon and tuna were both super fresh. W friend and I also shared the dumpling which were banging! We both also got Taro boba tea. The ice melted a little too quickly which watered the drink down but enjoyable nonetheless. Theres also a bar with karoke downstairs so you get the best of both worlds here. I will absolutely be coming back anytime im in the area!

This review is solely for the poke bowls, but I thought they were subpar. Service and ambiance were…read morejust okay as well. The 1 meat topping poke bowl goes for $15.5, and ~$19.5 for 2. The amount of salmon I got was minimal and not justified by the price IMO. It also wasn't very tasty. There were many unlimited toppings (non-meat) to choose from, but it felt more like a salad than a poke bowl. I wouldn't come back for the bowls.

This location is extra special to me because it was the very first one I ever visited through Yelp! Anywho, the customer service was a 10/10, as always! The inside and outside were still super clean, and I absolutely love the outdoor seating area. I ordered the Watermelon Matcha Lemonade, and they've been going crazy with all the new matcha flavors they've been adding! I'm not even mad about it. I'm just sad I didn't get a large because I definitely could've used more! Next time, I'm getting the large AND adding a frozen matcha to my order. See you soon!

However, they are the only establishment I know that makes the boba croissant and when made right, OMG! Yes, you get the brown sugar syrup, the whipped cream, and the honey boba balls IN a perfectly toasted croissant...but sometimes, they forget the brown sugar strup and then it just doesn't taste the same.

They serve drinks and street food. Gong Cha also shares the same location/ counter space with Poki DC so you can get your poke + boba fix. To order, there's a self-order kiosk. They're fairly fast in making your orders. I LOVE that they were accommodating and used soy milk as dairy alternatives when I left a note in my order since there wasn't an option button to change dairy. Green Thai tea was so delicious and had a nice balance of sweetness. Strawberry smoothie with creme brûlée was also good, but tasted a little watered down (but maybe it's because it was soy milk?). Chicken karaage was crispy and tasty. There's not a lot of boba places around DC so def recommend this place!

The handmade dumplings are the best. The bubble teas, boba, milk teas, juices, slushies, and smoothies are amazeballs. Drinks are customizable. The spicy beef noodle soup is crazy good and enough for two or leftovers. It's seriously hearty and filling. Everything is fresh and packed with flavor. Hands down one of my favorite places to grab lunch or dinner when I'm in DC.

I found this place on tiktok and I love soup dumplings, soup and boba. This place has it all!…read more Coming inside there's a counter where you can order drinks and food to go but if you plan to dine in, you just sit down at any available table and order from the QR code. The restaurant I very clean and the decorations are really pretty. We ordered soup dumplings and noodles and our food was ready really fast. I ordered the veg spicy and sour noodles and they come with an egg and crispy pieces of corn and a lot of boi hot which I love. The flavor was spicy with a hint of lime for the sour flavor. My husband ordered the beef noodle soup and he said it tasted amazing. Our chicken soup dumplings were full of flavor and a lot of broth inside. This place is really similar to Yu noodles which is one of my favorite places so if I'm ever in the area again I would go to this place for soup dumplings. Our server was really sweet as well.

I especially loved that you can customize both the sweetness and ice level, so it was easy to make the drinks just the way we like them. As someone who usually orders drinks less sweet, I really appreciated having that option. The staff were friendly, service was quick, and ordering was easy through the self-service iPad at the entrance. There isn't much seating, but it's the perfect spot to grab a drink and take a stroll along the waterfront. I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

Everything is ordered through a kiosk, and they text you when your drink is ready -- super convenient. Do the drinks take a while? Yes.
