Overall, I enjoyed giving Black Rock a try and would go back if ever in the area.

As a vegan, there are plenty of options that range from nachos to steamed buns to cheesecake. I also tried something from their juice bar menu: DELICIOUS!! My server's name was Kat, I told her it was my first time here and she helped me choose the best options for me based on my personal tastes and her recommendations.

You may be intimidated by the look of Ca Phe Phin from the outside because of its high class looking sign and intricate menu, but once you enter the establishment you are immediately put at ease with the very friendly staff and chilled out music that resonates down into your bones. The menu is vast but the two girls will help you decide, you just have to tell them what you like, i.e. coffee/tea hot or iced. Tonight we experienced Lotus Tea, Red Tea with Coffee Jelly and a Coffee Float. The Lotus Tea was very Light and Bright and had a sweet finish. The Red Tea had a great deep spice to it and the texture of the jelly was a great marriage. The star of the night however was the Coffee Float, well presented and executed, A very strong coffee with ice-cream and cream on top. For dessert we had Banana Cake and a Coffee Caramel Flan, Both were outrageously delicious and almost as good as the Coffee's themselves. Next time do yourself a favor don't be shy and visit Ca Phe Phin. read more

How to get to Phin, direction, tips... From 45: take exit 24 to Nasa By Pass, off the ramp, cross the 1st light, slow down, Phin is just there on our right side (pull over to Akimi Sushi building parking lot, which is opposite Regatta Building & Chevron Gas Station and you'll get it) From 146, Kemah, NASA: take Nasa Pkwy, cross Saturn Ln, cross JSC, cross Point Look Out, at the light of Nasau Bay, take a U-turn, Phin coffee is then on our right side (see above) There are some other ways if you're familiar with the area. And it's worth the find. Coffee is unique you can't find elsewhere. read more

Being right down the street, I couldnt help but check it out…read more Going inside, there is a bit of smell of oil so know you'll leave smelling like it. Even for a little while - i got stuff to go. That being said the lounge area is nicely placed with ample seating and tables for small gatherings. Snacks and various food options are additionally available. The staff are nice and friendly but I didnt have much interaction to note more. Now the gritty; the popcorn chicken is honestly a mixed bag. While it is fairly juicy and pairs well with the thai chili sauce, it in itself is rather bland and honestly disappointing. The spicy powder on top adds a teeeeeeeny kick but doesnt do much when its just flavorless chicken. The teas are actually really good though. Half sweet is a good enough sweetness for me and the toppings work really well with each. I'll stick to the drinks next time.

We got their milk tea with boba and durian smoothie, which I always commend a place that will have it for nostalgia sakes. The flavoring of the durian smoothie is really light so don't fear the typical smell but don't expect deep flavors either. There are different options of fruit ears and coffee/frap as well. Overall, I am satisfied with this spot for your typical boba cravings. They are currently running a special of buy 5 get one 1 which is always a hit.

Upon entry you are welcomed with a very spacious lobby, brightly lit, soothing music, cute decor throughout and welcoming staff. 10/10 We ordered the Mango Smoothie, here is where it's a bit tricky. The smoothie according to my son and the small sip I took, stated that it tasted a bit bland. I could taste the mango but it was subtle and maybe it's because they used more natural flavors, I'm not sure but it just wasn't what we are used to. Again, it's probably an us issue but we weren't fans. Now I will say I'd like to come back and try something different so we can try other items. 7/10 Customer service was on point 10/10z Definitely give this cute spot a try

What…read morestood out right away was how balanced the drinks are--not overly sweet like some other places, but still full of rich, creative flavors. Every drink was thoughtfully made and looked just as good as it tasted. The presentation is beautiful, making it one of those places where you almost don't want to drink it because it's so pretty. We tried several drinks, and each one was unique. Our absolute favorites were Purple Rain--light, refreshing, and paired perfectly with lychee jelly--and Taro Ocean, which put a fun twist on the traditional taro drink by adding graham crackers at the bottom. That little addition was such a surprise and honestly made the drink unforgettable. You can tell the menu is crafted with creativity, and it makes you want to come back to try everything. All the drinks are customizable. Service was quick, and overall ordering was very easy. Overall, Happie Boba Shop nails it across the board: delicious and inventive drinks, a clean and comfortable environment, and easy access. I'll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, refreshing, and satisfying boba experience.

Did you know that they serve the viral peach AND manga shaped ice creams here?! I might come back to Boba & More Xpress if I'm in the area.

My go-to order is the cheese milk tea (black milk tea with cheese foam on top) and black pearls (boba). I find this to taste perfectly sweet and decadent. I'm excited to try other drink options, including their honey golden pearl milk tea, vanilla coffee frappuccino, and Vietnamese egg coffee.

It was my first time having this dish and it did not disappoint. It came with cucumber, bean sprouts, and Thai basil to add with the rice roll and pork to be dipped in their nuoc nam. I got a meatball Banh Mi to go, which I ended up eating later and it was absolutely delicious and melts in your mouth. It comes smothered with traditional butter and liver pate that I love. I also had a pork pastry which I believe is the same meatball that was in the banh mi. The pastry was flaky with a melts in your mouth pork meatball. Absolutely delicious!!
