    Boba Bird was a stop during a recent trip to Houston as I wanted to get a drink while near the Hobby Airport. This Asian-owned business showed up as a hot and new listing in the South Belt/Ellington neighborhood. The worker said they had been open for about two months. Besides the cartoon bird theme, the inside had a lot of orange coloring including all of the metal chairs. I was the sole customer around lunchtime because the inclement weather had minimized the traffic in the area. A self-serve kiosk was available to place an order online in case there was a wait at the service counter. Seven signature drinks were featured on the menu. Smoothies, coffee, and fresh juice were the categories along with fruit teas and milk teas. Tenders and fries were sold as baskets which is not common at the boba tea shops in my hometown. The tea prices at $5 or less were great for the serving size. I chose a Citrus Fruit Tea from the signature list and a Passionfruit Tea from the regular selections. Both were modified with less ice while boba pearls were added to the latter tea. Pineapple, strawberries, and mango were the fruits in the first drink. The sweetness was fine at the 100% sugar level, however the pearls weren't cooked long enough as the boba was chewier than I liked. I hung around to wait for the storm to pass while using the free WiFi (birdistheword).

    3/4 full ice!

    I ordered boba with less ice and was given with 3/4 ice full - see photo for evidence

    Strawberry Mint Lemonade

    We visited Boba Bird the weekend of its Grand Opening, and it was busy with excitement! There were two ways to order upon entering - one could either use the electronic kiosk (self-service) or you could wait in line to be assisted by a server. We chose to order at the kiosk to skip the long line. There was quite a wait, but considering it was the Grand Opening, this was to be expected. Plus, Boba Bird had a Photo Booth to entertain you while you waited! They also had free Boba Bird stickers. We ordered the Four Banger - 4 chicken tenders, fries, toast, pickles and BB sauce for $14. The breaded chicken tenders were very juicy and the seasoned fries crispy. The chicken tenders were very reminiscent of Raising Canes (in quality and taste). I also ordered the Boba Bird signature strawberry mint lemonade drink. It was very refreshing and no one flavor overpowered the others. A great combination of flavors! I will definitely return to Boba Bird when I am in the area!

    Tried the mint strawberry lemonade today because I was thirsty. I was a bit worried cause I normally order a taro or brown milk. Omg. So freaking good! Fresh squeezed and fresh strawberries and aloe jellies. Definitely worth the $7.

    Bird Boss Milk Tea

    First time here and I decided to try out their bird boss milk tea (one of the signature drinks). It came with cheese foam, brown sugar, and boba. The drink tasted very good, not too sweet not too bland. The only thing I didn't like was the boba, it was chewy but it had no taste to it. The ambiance looked nice and was very well decorated. I would come back to try their hot chicken tenders next time!

    The price is reasonable, and drinks are delicious. My favorite is brown sugar milk tea

    I've lost count of how many times I've been here, so this review is long overdue…read more Yes, it's inside a gas station (Pitstop Express), but don't let that fool you. Some of the best food spots hide behind gas pumps, and this is one of those spots. The chicken stays consistent every single time. Finding good fried chicken in Houston is strangely harder than it should be, so I usually end up frying my own. But here? The chicken is seasoned, fried fresh to order, and just... good. Like, no gimmicks, just good chicken. Ordering is simple: place it at the counter, pay at the register, hand your ticket back, and then wait about 15 minutes for your food. And they've got fried okra, which always hits. The cooks keep the vibes up. It's all takeout; no seating so while you wait, browse the snack shelves. You'll probably spot something you haven't seen since childhood (depending on how far back your childhood goes). They also serve breakfast but Ive only had the chicken. This is definitely a go too when simple wing craving kicks in and I don't wanna cook.

    First let me say the chicken was amazing!!! However, they were out of all sides except tater tots…read morein which they didn't let me know until AFTER I paid for fries. The wait was incredibly long even though they weren't busy, but the workers were kind and gave us beverages while we waited. Overall the establishment was clean and the food was good. Not my favorite chicken spot but I'm not against trying them again.

    My ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE pizza buffet!…read more Everything is so clean and freshly made to order! The pizza buffet is $11.99, and it includes a variety of specialty pizzas, breadsticks, garlic bread, stromboli, salad bar, drinks, and two types of desserts that never disappoint! The service is outstanding--Epin knows me by name, and I know him by his. Every time I come in, he asks how I'm doing, tells me he's glad to see me, and even asks what I'd love to see on the buffet. Epin is top-notch! He's not the owner, just an employee who goes above and beyond to make your experience unforgettable. I've even eaten here five days straight--yes, the food is that good! Mouthwatering from the first bite to the last. It's made-to-order, tasty, perfectly heated, and the service is second to none. I told my friend about this pizza buffet--she drove all the way up from down South just to try it. After one plate, she was in love. Now, she's already planning her next visit. The owner, on the other hand; is polite and all smiles, though you will rarely see him arise from the kitchen and come out, speak, and clean the tables. It's mostly Epin doing so! This place surprised me in the best way--it's where I discovered my absolute favorite pizza: the Buffalo chicken. Just the right kick, cheese and that tangy Buffalo sauce that hits perfectly. And don't even get me started on dessert... that apple cinnamon pizza? Pure magic. Warm, sweet, and downright memorable. If you know, you know. Wink wink. I also brought my parents here--Simple Simon offers discounts for seniors, first responders, and teachers! I wish they had a punch card or some loyalty discount for frequent customers... Ahh one day, I hope! The buffet is available Sunday through Friday from 11 AM to 2 PM, and Tuesday nights from 5 PM to 8 PM. Unfortunately, there's no buffet on Saturdays. I love coming by after work to chow down on the buffet. If it's not on the buffet and you want it, Epin will let you know it'll only take 8 minutes to prepare! They also have a regular menu with small, medium, large, and beast pizzas. The beast is absolutely massive--perfect for parties! They also offer keto options, wings, sandwiches, calzones, stuffed crust, and more. Even though there's a Refreshesca place nearby, I think Simple Simon would totally benefit from adding an ice cream machine near the drinks (I hope, it's in the works)! The atmosphere is so welcoming, friendly, laid-back, and inviting--you can't go wrong at Simple Simon Riverstone Ranch! It's tucked in the corner of Chevron next to a beauty salon. Oh, and like no other, they have a drive-thru window for those times when you want to grab your order without going inside! It's definitely my go-to for both dine-in and takeout. Come hungry, leave full and happy. Grab a plate--your next meal's waiting right here. Smells good, tastes even better. Cravings end here at Simple Simon's!

    Amazing!! Have come…read morehere on Tuesday for family night. 11.99 pp and under 4 is free. The staff are so nice! They are happy to make whatever pizza you want and even made fresh cookies for my kiddos.
