Avocado smoothie is the best smoothie ever made and it was so sweet that it came with my favorite!read more

I came here because my friend said it was good. So far, I haven't found a place in San Marcos that…read morehas decent boba. I asked the cashier what his favorite drink was and he said the Taro Cream boba, so I got that. Taro Cream boba- I got it with 25% sweetness and it was WAY too sweet. I can't imagine how it would even taste if it was 100% sweetness. It did taste like taro and cream, but the sugar was WAYYY too much for me to even like this drink. I'd never get this drink again, but I would any drink that doesn't have tea at 0%. The boba was more on the squishy side which I didn't mind. Overall, I would not voluntarily come here again. Honestly, I don't like the boba in San Marcos.

Not the first gong cha I've been to, but this location was near the house so I thought I'd give it…read morea try! The staff were pleasant and the store itself was clean. I ordered the crème brûlée brown sugar milk tea w/ boba and 50% sweetness. It was very good! Gong cha has a more limited menu compared to other milk tea shops, but it works when you have a craving! Just be aware that it shares the same parking lot as P. terry's, so it can get pretty busy during the lunch and dinner rush from the drive through.

I'm a ride or die for Gong Cha. I literally purchase 2-3 drinks every time I come here: one for…read morenow, one for later, and one for another day if I'm feeling extra spontaneous. I will often test for 3 things: how long was the tea steeped? are tea leaves used? and lastly, is there more tea, cream, or ice in this drink? I cut out the boba as I feel the syrup and tapioca distract from the tea. How I like my tea: strong & fresh, which is exactly how Gong Cha makes it. Every drink I have ordered so far, HAS BEEN THE BEST DRINK EVER: From the Milk Tea & Milk Foam Series, I love: Oolong, Earl Grey, Green, and Black tea (served hot or cold, I don't discriminate), Slush Series: Taro Milk, and the Creative Series: Hibiscus, Passionfruit, and Honey Lemon Green Tea. If anyone wants to know my specifications on why/how my drinks always come out perfect: REDUCE your sugar & your ice!

The Best Pad Thai ($18): Thai-style stir-fried rice noodles with egg, dried sweet radish, chili, garlic, crab meat, bean sprouts, and chives, topped with fried tempura shrimp, crispy shallots, tobiko, peanuts, and lime. I love pad thai, and this version delivered! The flavors were quite concentrated, so I recommend mixing the noodles thoroughly before eating. While the shrimp tempura was crunchy with a nice batter, I personally prefer the traditional proteins -- beef, chicken, pork, or tofu. BBQ Brisket Clay Pot ($19.50): A Thai-Chinese style clay pot featuring garlic, ginger, smoky brisket, onion, mushroom, Thai jasmine rice, green onion, sweet soy sauce, and chili garlic sauce. The combination didn't quite work for me and I wasn't a fan of the flavors, though my husband absolutely loved it. It's not as flavorful as the pad thai so we had to use the sauce they provided.

Soup without much regard to the eenie teenie weenie miniscule size of the chicken which tasted great once I found them. These were the scrapings off the bones of what looked like dark meat. I added my own chicken boneless breasts into the soup and made it thick and filling. The other dishes I have had there are plenty good too. So that's my one and only complaint ~ please take this advice- you guys are WAY too good a restaurant to serve a meal where the meat looks more like tree bark than an edible fowl. 4Star!!!

She comes out and ask what you want to order and gets the order done pretty quick. Adobo Plate- this is pork! People in the area said it was beef but this is a pork dish. It taste just like the adobo I have at home with the meat being leaner than other places. I might be even able to hit my macros with this. If you like a slight vinegar taste this dish is it! Comes with lumpia and rice. Skewer plate- the skewer plate was definitely my favorite. It was moist and had that slight kick of spicy. I would order it again! Comes with lumpia and rice also. Overall this place is great for such a small shop. I love how the lumpia came in a bunch and it was really good! The lady cooked it just right and you don't have that burnt egg roll taste if you know what I'm talking about. The customer service is great and the food smacks!

My first disappointment was the halo-halo, it just consisted of Coconut, ube ice cream, a lot of corn that's all i could taste and nata de coco. that's it. It's basically Mais con yelo with ube ice cream and the gulaman tasted old like it was sour, and there was no sweetness to the halo halo i had to add sugar when I got home. Next was the pork bbq and lumpia combo, lumpia was okay but the pork bbq gave me a stomach ache, it was drenched in spicy sauce to mask that the meat went bad, I can't believe someone would serve this. Oh and the cherry on top for me was when you have to pay, their payment system won't let you decline the tip. There was only 4 options of tip and no option to decline tip
