    Pros Good customer service Nice accent wall with neon lights Cons Do not take cards I typically don't purchase expensive drinks but my friends insisted they would have honestly got a 3 star for an issue I discussed with them but because he took the criticism so well I couldn't lower there rating because of that. I took off because they chose not to have a card reader and only take cash or zelle. So again the lack of a card reader is why they got 1 star off. The drinks was $5 each they dont charge extra for the tapioca. Because of the simple ingredients and no extra syrup or fruit it was just ok 7/10.

    I was cleaning out my desk and saw the punch card so I decided to drop by since I haven't been here in a while. I have to say the place is very quiet with no customers. I went ahead and ordered 3 drinks since I remembered it was good and cheap. My total came out to be $18.50! I remembered each drink used to be around $4 or so and even with inflation the price is almost as much as other tea place. It still taste good but for the price I would go somewhere closer to me. Also, there are no price posted anywhere.

    This is my go to place for boba fruit smoothies and shaved ice! They use fresh fruit, not powder, and are priced very well compared to other places in Chinatown. The service is always friendly. Do note they only accept cash. I highly recommend and will return.

    This place has become too bad I really like that they have fresh fruit but I can't stand having to watch over them every time I tell them no sugar and they will try to put syrup in it anyway. Then they charge different prices every day I put five different fruit sometimes charge me five dollars sometimes six dollars today eight dollars but that's not the worst of it I dropped my cup getting into the truck now yes this is my fault but any other business would've gave me a new drink this bad person told me it was my fault I will never go back to this business when she is working there this happened January 6, 2021 I was a loyal customer here for about 5 years that ends today! One more thing I forgot to add this business only excepts cash today I walked in and had a 20 and they could not make change I luckily found eight dollars at the bottom of my purse are you kidding me.

    Gogo Ice is one of those places that aren't super flashy, aren't "Instagram worthy", and you pass by it all the time without stopping in. Well due to the Houston heat and humidity, I decided to stop by and get a nice cold refreshment and I'm so glad I did. I got a mango/papaya smoothie and my brother got the strawberry smoothie with boba. Total cost of both was $7.50, such a steal. They have fresh fruit on display and use it in their drinks so it's delicious and healthy too. Only downside was that this is an old school Chinatown spot that does cash only...

    Both ladies are very kind

    Gogo ice is really a good place!! I mean,the Service are wonderful!The ladies there are Super Nice! And they will say "have a nice day "every time! The floor is pretty clean.. And the fruits are fresh too... what else can I say! By the way,the shave ice are really really good!

    Boba tea shops are a dime a dozen, but this one! I'd make way to go out to! Every time I've gone and tried either a tea or a smoothie it always has had that distinct freshness, perhaps because they actually grind up fruits freshly right behind the counter. I ended up getting a passion fruit tea lychee with tapioca, while my parents got a fresh mango smoothie also with tapioca. Both were really good! I'd have to recommend a fresh fruit type of drink though next time I go. The tapioca itself is also very tasty and not too mushy, sweetened as well making it all the more refreshing. Staff is very nice and can easily make recommendations since the large menu can be intimidating to some. There's also a list of favored types, can't wait to try a new one!

    Their new split cup! $5

    This is my brother's go to for his weekly tapioca and one of my favorite places for Thai tea tapioca. I have not tried their ice desserts so this review is mainly on the tapioca and service. Tapioca: 4.5 stars The have the typical vast variety of options just like other tapioca stores. My favorite are their Thai and Milk tea because of their strong tea flavor and even when I ask for no ice they don't decrease the volume like at other stores. What is unique about Gogo is that they are one of two stores that started to sell the split cup for $5 which allows you to pick two flavors instead of one. Even with the divide its still the same amount of liquid but you should ask for no ice because the divide makes it very easy for them to add too much. This is also true for tapioca. Service: 5 stars What I love about Gogo is that they have one of the cheapest price for a good quality and quantity. My brother's weekly regular mango tapioca is $3.25 which is a good price because at other stores the cup is a large and it would normally sell for $4 or more. What's unique about Gogo is that the staff can speak multiple languages such as Spanish, Cantonese, Vietnamese, and Chinese which makes it feel more inclusive then other tapioca stores that only speak English and one Asian language. The workers are very efficient so you get your tapioca right away and they're always polite and serve with a smile.

    I used Yelp to find this drink and dessert shop. All of their drinks and juices are made from fresh fruit, and you can see them cutting them up right at the counter. I'm a simple girl; I got the milk tea with boba pearls. The pearls are soft but not mushy, and the tea is sweetened just enough. I loved my milk tea and you get a big drink for $3. You can't beat the price and quality! For more adventurous folks, they have a menu of flavors that sound heavenly together. You can also mix and match flavors to your liking, as well as change the form of your drink (get it into a smoothie versus as a drink). Inside, there's lots of tables to sit at. It's very loud because of the blenders going, and the cafe itself is quite small for the volume of customers. It was somewhat busy when we went, and we waited to get our drinks, but it's worth it. Thanks Yelp for leading me to a delicious drink shop during my visit to Houston!

    mango smoothie with tapioca ($4) cash only !!!
    Deepika N.

    I used to love stopping by Gogo Ice to get my boba fix back in college. They used to make all their smoothies with fresh fruit and the prices were unbeatable. I recently stopped by in over a year and I noticed the quality has decreased a lot unfortunately and they also increased the prices. The store it self seems really unsanitary and had a bad smell. The employee making my drink wasn't wearing gloves and touched the fruit with her bare hands after touching her phone/the cash register. Didn't feel very sanitary. Probably won't come back again, since there are other better boba spots in chinatown.

    They sell real fruit smoothies here. Decent price (just over $6 a cup), and boba comes free.

It took a little while for him to take our order, but at around 11:10pm, the gentleman working took our order and told me that because they were 'almost closed' they wouldn't be making anymore shaved ice for the night.
