    I was thinking about the worst boba I've ever had and this place takes the cake. This is saying a lot from someone who has had several boba drinks at a large variety of locations. I only decided to give this place a try because it was conveniently there while walking around the outlet mall. The boba tasted like bland unflavored hard rocks which cost extra to add into the drink! The drink itself tasted like very watered down fruit juice with unblended ice chunks. The decor is cute but there is not much room to sit and the tables were dirty. You also have to wait for one of the employees to give you attention just for some napkins instead of having them out conveniently to grab. Save your money and tastebuds and get a drink anywhere else PLEASE.

    The interior seems quite clean given that this is in a outlet mall. There are a lot of cute plushies, including a bootleg BT21 Mang. It seems that they are also associated with Panda Tea House, given that you can buy bags of tea with the panda tea house logo (as well as the cup). It wasn't extremely busy but there was only one person working, so it took about 20 minutes to get my order. I got the strawberry cheesecake smoothie and it was a sweet treat; you can taste the strawberry flavor and the graham cracker topping definitely gave cheesecake vibes. However, at nearly $10 for a single drink, it might not be worth it.

    Went to this Boba place one hot and humid afternoon in Leesburg Mall in Virginia and it did not disapppoint. You place the order and wait for a few minutes for your drink. The place looks cool with all these displays, souvenir items and decor. The boba milk tea that I had was cool and refreshing!

    Not worth it... the drink itself was tasty with the tea's fruity flavours and a good amount of sugar even for 100%. The boba was not good though; just tasted like dough with no brown sugar/sweet taste. The drink is also over $7 for very meh quality. There's no where to sit and no napkins and straws out on a counter - you have to ask for some from the workers but they might be busy. The decor is cute though and the mirrors have cute wording on them. Just think it's too expensive for the quality of drink they provide. Definitely skip out on the boba because it's not worth the additional cost either.

    I was craving bubble tea while I was shopping and luckily this was conveniently in the area. The store is spacious but there are no seats available. It's more of a grab and go place. The line moved fairly quick and they have tons of options to choose from: snacks, rolled ice cream, and drinks. Order: - Ube Milk Tea with crystal boba: 4/5. They definitely used powder for this drink, but the sugar level (100%) helped it along with the crystal boba. Not sure if the purple line around the drink is ube syrup, but shaking it helped balance the drink out. - Mango Green Tea: 5/5. A regular mango fruit tea, nothing too special as you can't really mess up a fruit drink. The mango and green tea blended together nicely so it was refreshing.

    We've been trying to look for the boba place inside the outlets for a little while now and never could find it until now. They have this location where they sell boba and another store where they sell collectibles and arts and crafts. I also didn't know that they're part of Panda Tea House as well. I got a Lychee Rose Tea w/Boba and it was quite refreshing and the boba consistency was good. Definitely is on the pricey side compared to other boba places though but good if you're into anime, kawaii things, and a quick fix for boba!

    Cute addition to Leesburg Outlet. Cute decorations inside like stuffed beanies that are shaped like cartoon bubble teas. There's no seating inside but there's an area inside you could stand at with a ledge/surface for your bubble tea. We got the ube one. Tasted great but you can't modify the sugar content which is a huge drawback and it wasn't cold, which is the main reason for buying bubble tea. Bottom line it tasted great but didn't stand out much from other bubble tea shops.

    Service was quick, my tea was good. Great location in the outlet mall. I'd visit there again if I'm back at the outlets.

    Bad trade deals for cards. Would never come back. Extremely overpriced and mediocre stuff with nothing actually special

    Recently came back to try this location again after a waffle craving. They had bubble waffle…read morespecials going on, and I decided to try the Summer Crunch bubble waffle. It was actually quite delectable! It hit the right spot for my cravings! The Summer Crunch croffle has granola, banana, strawberries, vanilla gelato and raspberry sauce. It was a great combination of crunch and sweet and savory! I also ordered a white peach fruit tea, which is pretty much my order of choice every time I've stopped by. As always, their staff are polite and come ready with their recommendations if you need them. The shop is fairly clean, and I've noticed that they have a pretty steady foot traffic. In the summer/warmer months, I've definitely noticed a lot of groups hang out in the shop. They don't have a lot of people staying to enjoy their orders in the middle of the day, so I think they'd be a good spot to do some remote work if you wanted to. Overall, solidly good experience. I would definitely recommend the croffles. The boba can still be a hit or miss.

It was good but not any different than I could get elsewhere. I ordered a mango fruit tea with boba. She ordered a Tiger Tea which is their version of brown sugar tea. It was good but I thought she's had better versions of it elsewhere. The service was quick and the gentleman working convinced us to stay in and try the boba. The ambiance is probably where they try to get people inside. There's hanging chairs which is kinda cool. If you want boba that Mochinut doesn't serve next door, then this place is serviceable. But there's tons of other boba places that I personally think are better if you are willing to drive.

We were greeted right away and seated immediately, which was a plus. The evening crowd was light, so there was no wait at all. The food options felt endless. They had everything from crab legs (cold, boiled, and salt & pepper crabs) to a hibachi and ramen station, plus a wide variety of sushi. There's truly something for everyone. It's definitely worth the price, especially since drinks and boba tea are included--I had two and have zero regrets! I'm already looking forward to crab season when they bring the blue crabs back. Overall, this spot is a great mix of atmosphere, variety, and value. I'll definitely be back!

If you are not…read moresensitive to salt content this might be not an issue at all,but I was thirsty before end of the day,even drinking a gallon of water. Now to the positive thoughts: place is clean,service is good,looove hibachi station,they cook it from the products you choose from showcase. Sushi are vey generic,but sashimi pieces looks fresh and pretty generous in size. I loved mussels,oysters didn't look appealing, Overall,for lunch it was decent selection for only 17 dollars. This is really good value. I would recommend it and would give them easy 4 stars,if not enormous sodium content. Will try next time other dishes with more neat and transparent ingredients and will update my review accordingly

    Chau's Cafe has been on and off my radar these past few years. When I saw that Yelp friend, Lyn L…read more went there recently and gave them high marks, we decided to give them a try. Be prepared to hunt for the place if you've never been to the shopping center, which is quite close to Route 7. We were here around 4 p.m. on a Saturday. At that time of day, there was one occupied table. Ordering food means going to the counter and giving your order to the person working there, and then paying. They have a menu on the wall, but the woman working there told us to look at the paper menu. Apparently, the menu on the wall is constantly changing. Before coming, we decided to order Mongolian beef, ma po tofu, and two small bowls of hot and sour soup. At first, my husband couldn't find the Mongolian beef on the menu. I took a look and found it is listed under the chef's specials. We gave our order and also got a can of ginger ale from the refrigerated chest. After paying, we chose a four top table for ourselves. The food came out quickly! First, the hot and sour soup came. It was served hot and did have some kick to it. We both enjoyed it. It does have quite a few button mushrooms in it, which I gave to my husband. Just as we were finishing the soup, both our entrees arrived. We both liked the Mongolian beef (which also had an abundance of button mushrooms). The sauce was tasty, and the beef was tender. As for the ma po tofu, we thought it was okay but could have been better. It's a meat-free entree that basically has large pieces of tofu, a lot of thin, spicy sauce, and bits of green onions. We each were given generous portions of white rice. We would consider visiting again in the future, as the service was excellent. As for ambiance, it has a carry-out place feel. It's kept quite clean.

    This has become my go-to for Chinese food. The staff is incredibly kind from the second you walk…read morethrough the door. I love that the portions are "just right"--decent sized without being overwhelming like most places. Plus, if you dine in, the food is out in 5-7 minutes. Super fast! Also, the restaurant and bathrooms are always clean.
