truly a hidden gem.. their popcorn chicken is my favorite and the workers are so nice :)

We ordered a Taiwanese shaved ice, which consisted of red beans, mung beans, taro, grass jelly, sweet condensed milk, and brown sugar syrup. It was so big that the three of us had to finish the whole bowl as a family. The toppings and soft ice were good, but the syrup made it too sweet. The workers only speak Taiwanese, unless you can order in Mandarin and point out what you want to eat. There are a few seats available for a small shop. They should have a bigger trash bin since it was already overfilled. Overall, it's a great place to try out their Taiwanese shaved ice inside the plaza. read more

I ordered the popcorn chicken for 10$ plus tax. It was pretty midtier and the cost is average among other popcorn chicken places. However, it does have a little spice that's bearable for anyone. The only thing that was difficult was the workers didn't speak English and it was hard to communicate with them to get what I wanted. However, this is best to improve your social skills if you're an antisocial. I liked the decoration of the place and I have been by this place multiple times and never noticed that they had a tiny eating area that was aesthetically pleasing. I feel that this is usually overlooked by many people read more

Fast and quick place for an afternoon snack. For the price of $9.99 the portion is very generous. It only took 5 minutes for the food to be ready on a not busy Saturday afternoon. I love how the basil comes together with the chicken. The chicken is not dry and the breading is just right. read more

This is my goto spot for Popcorn Chicken. Medium spicy is always perfect. I usually call in my order and just run in to pick it up. It's in a small food court like area of an Asian market. read more

Have to give them a shout out on their popcorn chicken getting them two times in one week! Never disappoint, flavor it's savory, it has enough crunchiness on the outer shell, tender on inside. Service is always nice the gentleman with glasses very generous when I ask for spiciness. Always love this place since I have being coming here when I was first came to America. Originally was quickly but the owner changed but the food never changed still as delicious. read more

They have C grade health code. They use old chicken for their popcorn chicken and you can taste it being little slimy.

Little shop inside the market. I always come here for the popcorn chicken! I'm always on the hunt for the perfect popcorn chicken and let me tell you this place is freshly made. The crispiness is perfect. They have different spice levels and 10 out of 10 satisfaction . If you're more hungry, they have other food options and lots of drink options with boba too. The staff don't speak that much English pretty much Chinese only but you can point at the menu and you'll be fine. There is plenty of parking outside, so you will never struggle to look for that. If you have time to kill, the market is directly connected to this spot so you can take a stroll inside the market as well. read more

Just inside at the entrance of the HK supermarket. Easy online ordering. However, the drink names don't really depict the actual drink. I ordered a green tea latte with east boba. The drink was more of a slushy type matcha tea with a white topping that seemed more of a foam whipped cream that you would get from a can. The boba had no taste but at least wasn't all sugary. Would I come back? No! Too many better boba tea places in the area. read more

A small little hole in the wall with big surprises from drinks, to light snacks to even an open market to explore! Yums The Fried Squid Balls and Fried Chicken were both wonderfully and generously seasoned. Thankfully, the distinct taste of savory saltiness wasn't what made these snacks a trademark for this shop, but something to remember whenever you find yourself in the area! The drinks especially do not create an overly sweet taste and the boba is both plentiful AND soft and sweet to the bite! Easy Convenience The shop itself is easy to find and the shop provides you with small sticks and utensils for eating your foods! Granted that the sticks for the small sticks are thin, they don't break easily and allow you to do some guesswork when blindly searching in the bottom for remaining snacks! There's also been practically no wait time for the various visits and the orders get taken quick! Lustre What sets this place apart from other shops is the authentic Taiwanese cuisine that you can find from its origins! Both in representation style and taste, this is definitely a place to take you back and remind you of those good street food days. It's even located inside a market to find more asian-loved snacks and drinks to take home! Price to Portion No complaints here! The price does certainly pay for the portions especially for $9 for what seems to be an endless bag of Squid Balls and Fried Chicken! read more

Ordered the Green Tea Latte. It was made with matcha powder and shaved ice. Was a litte too bitter for me (because of the matcha, which I should have known! ) but the boss lady was kind enough to add more sugar for me and re-blend my drink. $5.25 for a drink is super cheap for LA, so I'm super happy with both the service and the price :) The location is also inside the Hong Kong Supermarket, near the main automatic double doors, so if you're in the area, it's a convenient place to stop by! read more

They are back in business!! For a bit, it was marked as permanently closed back in June 2020 but they are definitely back! So happy because this is the absolute best place in town to get authentic Taiwanese popcorn chicken! I don't really get drinks here. My rating is purely for the popcorn chicken. I can't shut up about how delicious, crispy, tasty, savory, tender their popcorn chicken is. They use dark meat and the seasoning is on point! Always fresh made! They offer many other snack items like fried tempura, tea eggs, green beans, sandwiches, some combo meal plates, and various drinks. Since they recently opened back up and appears they've done some renovation to their space, they may have updated menu items. They are located inside the HK2 Food District building where the Hong Kong Supermarket is. It's a corner shop with some tables for seating and easy order to go. I believe there is a sign for wearing masks to be served but no floor markings to indicate social distancing. You'll have to do your own distancing. The plaza has plenty of parking and also has many people parking terribly. They only take CASH! You MUST have cash and EXACT change. I noticed now they don't give you exact change back. Didn't happen like this before but with the coin shortage, I'm assuming that's why. They really should have a sign posted to explain this. The same ladies that were originally running the place are still there. They hired additional staff. They speak very little English. Have your cash and be ready to not get change back. Their chicken prices seems to have gone up. I paid $13.73 for 2 orders of popcorn chicken. Chicken comes in 1 size now, only LARGE. I gave $20.00 but only got $6.00 back so goodbye to the change. I'm so happy they are back in business so I didn't care but will remember to have exact change next time. Anyway, get yourself some awesome popcorn chicken!! read more

This place is in the supermarket so it's hidden, but go for the popcorn chicken. I didn't try anything else. Tbh we considered leaving when we saw the place, but I'm glad we gave it a try. This is the best popcorn chicken I've had in socal. Well, if they added more basil and spice I think they would be a 5 for me, but I'm just enjoying this right now. read more

Cheap boba place with friendly service! $3.60~ for a large with pudding. For an inexpensive drink, I'm glad it doesn't taste powdery. When you check in you can get free green tea, black tea, boba milk tea (the basics). I'll be back, nice to find another place that has boba on a budget. read more

The food and drinks were amazing!!! The popcorn chicken was the best chicken I have ever had. We will definitely be back! 10/10. Great service as well. The food was very flavorful! read more

Service was good; however, I would not recommend since the food quality changed after the new owner took over. We went there last Saturday just for the popcorn trio because it used to be the best in town. It's probably the worst choice since both myself and daughter had food poisoning after this. Not even sure if the health inspectors found anything but definitely don't recommend anyone going. read more

Came here for Black Sugar Milk Tea and boba milk tea with pudding. Check in buy get one deal on Facebook Yelp and we chat for a small drink. They'll add extra for a large drink or fancier one so negotiate. But their prices are way lower than the rest of the boba places around. They start at ~$2.50 and add for toppings and size upgrades read more

The food is so good. The staff were very friendly. The food takes a little long since it's a small mom and pop shop. I would recommend calling your order ahead of time if you are on a time crunch. read more

Worst service. I ordered popcorn chicken & 2 drinks. They never called my number, let two orders pick up. Been standing 15mins watching 3 people barely working. I finally ask about my order and it's been sitting behind the counter the whole time. I use to go to this spot when it was owned by lollicup and a different owner. Hate that this is what it changed to. Don't go here. There are plenty of other boba & popcorn chicken spots in the area. If none of them are open for some reason, get pizza instead. read more

Free boba milk tea upon check-in! $1 extra for any upgrade snacks. $4.35 for regular size popcorn chicken. $4 for regular size saseme rice balls. read more

Boba Gogo is a casual place with a large selection of Taiwanese style boba drink drinks and some savory fried snacks. The main draw for me is the excellent-tasting braised pork stew rice. At $3.99 for a bowl, it is super satisfying and great deal (+ $1 for hard boiled tea egg and $1.50 for green, black, milk tea or winter melon tea drink). The popcorn chicken and black rice cake items also feature fabulous taste and good value. Highly recommend if you are in the area and just want super value and tasty comfort food for take out. The Taiwanese shaved ice offerings look intriguing. read more

I was in the plaza getting a haircut and couldn't help but smelling deep fried basil on the way out. I have passed this place many times but never tried it. Well, that stupid basil got me. I ordered a passion fruit slush and popcorn chicken. The lady took my order was pretty nice but it didn't seem like her English was that amazing. If you stick to the numbers, you should be OK. The slush was done quick with lots of syrup. It was pretty tasty but numbed my tongue shortly after. Still a great treat for hot summer days. The popcorn chicken smelled awesome! The aroma of the basil and chicken together turns my head every time. It was actually really sad that I didn't like the taste of the chicken. It felt like it was missing something major but I couldn't pin point on what. There was spice, pepper and salt, hmmmm, maybe not enough salt? It just wasn't satisfying. I guess there's a reason why I liked the tea place at the nearby Yes plaza. As for this place, probably not again. read more

This is a order and go type of place. It's in the entrance of Hong Kong Supermarket and replaced Lollicup (which I totally forgot about). Upon arrival, my brother and I realized instantly that it was pretty much Lollicup just with a new name. There was only one lady working - taking orders, making drinks and calling out orders. With that being said, there were 4 people in front of us, so it took maybe 25 minutes from the time we got there to the time we got our drinks. Some of the previous customers had seemed a bit impatient with her, and while I can see where they're coming from, she's also only one person, so also keep in mind that she's trying her best! After my brother and I ordered, she upgraded both of our drinks from regulars to larges for free, which was extremely kind of her. The drinks were delicious and made well. The drinks here are cheap, but still good. However, I wouldn't come here if you were in a hurry. Come when you have free time and are able to catch up with someone while you are waiting for your drinks! read more

Changed management during Covid it seems? The menu's changed. They also upped the prices but lowered the quality of service. What happened to the middle aged ladies who worked here before Covid? They worked so fast and always got the orders right. Now, forget it. I'd rather pay $5.50 for a boba drink anywhere else on Colima Rd lol read more

I had a taro slush no boba and it lived up to the name Fresh and Delicious! It had a somewhat gritty creamy taro taste like it might have some evaporated milk and was not overly sweet. $6.50. Tasted pretty good with my duck from MK BBQ. read more

I was looking for snack to go along with my boba and I was looking through yelp to find some popcorn chicken. As I was scrolling through pics, Fresh Delicious came up and the pictures of the popcorn chicken looked promising. I navigated to the place but the place is hidden inside the grocery store so you won't see it while driving through the parking lot. In summary, that was the best popcorn chicken in SoCal I've had so far but the exploration continues. read more

There is always good/bad about trying new places and sometime I find a great eatery among the many. This location is one that I would not come back. Location opened at 9am, but got here a little after 10am and nothing is ready and non-fry items takes 20 mins which is not true as I'm here after 30 mins and still haven't got my order. Hope the food is good as I've wasted 30+ mins waiting for the food. read more

The only problem i have with this place is this rude lady she doesn't know how to smile and be nice they you should hire someone that at least smiles When you ask for a bag or something she just throw at counter I'm not coming here no more she is the only one there every time i go i always think maybe she had a bad day or something last time but nooooo always with the bad attitude NEVER COMING BACK AGAIN!!!!!!! read more
