    me upset

    i came here about 3 years ago and absolutely loved the place. I came again this year after craving it for so long just to come at 5:00 pm on a Friday to find , their doors locked, lights on, and 2 arrogant young girls yapping in the hallway of the cafe. They didn't come out to let us know they were closed ... they gave us a signal they were closed as i point to the lights they shut them off and run away.. so happy to know i'll never waste my time to 1. drive here to eat 2. to even blink at again. I wouldn't even be able to see when they really close since you can't even call the restaurant. HOURS , PHONE NUMBER, AND WEBSITE ALL NOT UPDATED! get it together if u want good business thanks.

    Mango Milk Tea Boba

    DO NOT VISIT THIS LOCATION RED FLAG RED FLAG SAVE YOUR MONEY Let's starts with this was my 2nd time visiting and giving them a chance. Nobody greets you upon entry and when they do 2-5 minutes after they are rude and not welcoming. So all good posters on wall and menu are not available except for ramen and veggie spring roll, not what I came for. So I order a lychee boba and served to me hot on the bottum. They didn't even cool the boba or wash after cooking and made my lychee drink taste like straight brown sugar that was mixed with a tub of sugar and was just such a nasty taste that was far from lychee and I just have to say this place should just close and save their money cause we all know rent on that street is not cheap. DO NOT BUY BOBA FROM THIS PLACE.

    Lavender Milk tea, Passionfruit popping Boba, Honey Boba & Coconut jelly. Yum!!!!

    A convenient little boba tea place not far from the beach. When I walked in there was a bell or tone from the door, but nobody ever came out from the back, until another person walked in and then someone came out. You choose your base drink, milk tea, fruit tea, slushy, fruit punch or smoothie. Then you choose your toppings- (up to 3) tapioca, popping boba, crystal boba, jelly, pudding, cheese foam & oreos. Choose sweetness level & type of milk. I tried the Lavender Milk tea with Passionfruit popping boba, coconut jelly & honey boba. Very refreshing & fun! They also have food items.

    This place is fabulous -- aesthetic, clean and delicious. I highly recommend coming here after the beach and enjoy a refreshing cup of boba/tea. The cheese stick is to die for and the cheese is super stretchy and delicious. The prices don't break the bank and you'll dance a bit after tasting everything. You can also download and app that "stamps" for each visit and for the ninth stamp you get a free gift. You can also input your birthday and get a gift on your special day. Happy eating! :)

    Boba tea boba tea, one for you and one for me....Bubble tea bubble tea, who doesn't love a great bubble tea. Maybe it's the California in me but Boba tea is quite possibly my favorite of all drinks. Unfortunately what you'll find on the west coast or NYC, you struggle to find at all in south Florida. Black Pearl could not have opened quick enough! A small little shop serving all types of boba and milk teas, buns, dim Sum, and deserts. Of the dozens of boba tea places I've visited, I can't ever recall seeing flavored tapioca on a menu. What's even more impressive is the price point! $5 for a large cup? Are we still Boca? Some of the places in San Francisco are simply perfection but this milk tea is one of the most satisfying ive ever had. I'd be willing to bet I probably won't find a better version in the entire county. Black Pearl fills a desperately empty void of quality boba tea options in the area. Emphasis on the word 'quality'. Heck, even the pretenders are far and few between. I look forward to making this a regular occurrence.

    Was around the area and decided to try this boba spot. This place is literally right next to the beach! I think this place is convenient for people who need a quick pick me up! All of their milk teas seems to be made by powder so the texture is definitely different but it's was pretty good overall. The prices for the boba were pretty inexpensive as well. The 16oz is around $3 and the 24oz is around $4/5. Pretty decent for bubble milk teas and it comes with tapioca no extra charge. I also tried their red velvet cookies and it was okay.. not as fresh and a bit hard. I also liked how they had different options of quick bites such as dumplings, eggrolls and ramen. Customer service was pretty good. This place is a bit far from where I live but if I am ever in the area, I would try this place again!

    I have been eying this place for a while now, anticipating the opening... While I was not initially impressed with their Boba Teas... I truly believe Sky made up for it and did a great service. I got two teas... Lavender & my favorite Taro. Both initially did not taste right. The Lavender took three times... the third time, Sky actually remade the tea and put two scoops in versus one scoop... I have a feeling they need to do that with all their Boba Teas, to prevent them from tasting like milky green tea (jasmine is the base I am told)... I will give this place another chance- only requesting two scoops instead of one scoop... to prevent the watery milky substance. They seem to have a great dumpling menu and unique ramen... The place was super clean and service was excellent. Hence, the four versus three stars... And, worth me giving them another opportunity to wow me!

    Oh my god. I used to love this place, and it was a go-to place after the beach, and im so disappointed. My boba was hot, and the drink was room temperature, it's supposed to be cold... Their straws are smaller and you get less boba, which is smaller as well. It also tasted horrible. Only good boba there is brown sugar milk tea. The cups were dirty inside and out, and my friends drink had dead bugs in it. Got a refund, but only for the cup with the dead bugs. Do I recommend? No!

    A fun place to go for some Boba tea or dim sum. A little spot where the workers are very friendly. They are very helpful. You can also download the app and collect points and then get a reward. The parking in the back is tight - we got lucky and got a spot. I recommend it - it is near the beach so it seems to be a hot spot.

    I got the Buldak Cheese Ramen with Beef slices and Kimchi on the side. I also ordered the Mango Fruit Tea with Strawberry popping boba. 10/10.It was absolutely delicious. This is a cute little shop with green floral accents. I do not know the Girls name who took our orders but she was so sweet and patient. Also I ate the food before I was able to take a picture of it. 10/10, would recommend, especially after time after the beach.

This time we order a lot of the same things that we always ordered. There were a few more things that we wanted to try because we had some guests that didn't eat seafood. So we started with beef fried rice, beef chow fun and Mongolian beef. The fried rice was flavorful had a nice wok hei aroma. The Mongolian beef and beef chow fun tasted very similar just one has the noodles. We ordered some of the dim sum like fried lobster ball (honestly this one didn't have any resemblance of any lobster), shrimp rice paste was ok but the rice paste was thicker than before, we ordered the green tea bbq pork bun but was given the regular ones instead, when we ask about it the server said that they ran out and says it was the same just the different color on the outside!! (Well my daughter only eats the green tea buns and she doesn't like the other one that why we chose to come here and expects what we ordered) if something ran out all you have to do is tell the customer who ordered and they will make that decision PLEASE DONT MAKE THE DECISIONS FOR US!! The Seafood Pan Fried Noodle was the most disappointing!! It our favorite to enjoy both this time the scallops and the imitation crab meat tasted off like it's about to turn bad. We asked for rice, sugar and other this multiple time but the server seems to be overwhelmed and forgot. The bathroom is kind of smelly and should be thoroughly clean before service

I've been here a couple of times before, and while they do some things really well, other items can be hit or miss. What I highly recommend: the Cantonese wonton soup for two.

The yu choy is sautéed simply with fresh sliced garlic -- fresh, vibrant, and exactly how it should be. And the water chestnut pudding is THE BEST. It's such a hard-to-find dim sum item, and honestly one of the main reasons we're willing to travel this far to eat here. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment was the char siu (chashu). I ordered a pound to go, and when I got home, it turned out to be mostly hardened, fatty, gristly pieces. I ended up throwing most of it away. That was especially frustrating considering my girlfriend and I left a $30 tip on a $100 bill. To be fair, most Chinese restaurants aren't known for warm service, but our waiter was friendly and attentive, and he did a good job. Overall, I'll return for the specialties they execute well -- but I'll definitely skip the char siu next time.
