Not the best bubble tea spot out there…read more Location: it is located in Plaza Drive. There are seatings inside so you can chill. Service: I just ordered at the machine, no interaction. Food: i got the purple potato milk tea with bubble, it was alright i dont know why there is some kind of rice inside. The boba is alright, the milk tea itself is bland. No purple potato or yum flavor. Price rating: 7 out of 10. Typical price for bubble tea. Maybe ill try their other flavors next time.

Rating: 4.0 Came to…read morevisit the American Dream mall and stopped by Hey Tea to get some tea. I was recommended by a friend to try the place in Boston. Since i saw that there is one here i figured i would give it a try. It's a counter where you order your drinks but no seats or table. They have a system where when you place an order you get a receipt with number and board up above will let you know when its being prepared and when its ready. My partner and i ordered triple matcha and brown sugar bubble tea. Brown sugar bubble tea was ok. Boba was good but it was too creamy. I think there is too much milk/cream in proportion to the tea. Triple green tea was pretty good. Nice green tea flavor that is not too sweet and not too bitter. It also has some chunk of little jelly as well. Service was good and fast. Our order only took about 5 minutes even thought the place was somewhat busy. Overall i think it's a solid tea place. I would come back to try different tea next time.

Choo choo... it's the HeyTea train coming through. And I don't know if I want to climb aboard…read more This was my second time trying HeyTea. It's a VERY popular brand known for high quality drinks made with premium teas and fresh fruit--and they're aesthetically pleasing too. My first time was at the Edison location, and that was a dub. I decided to give it a second shot at the East Rutherford one... also a dub. LOL. This location is a small kiosk inside the American Dream Mall, near the H Mart in Court A on level 1. I went on a Saturday and it was chaos. You couldn't even tell where the line started or ended. You just gotta squeeze through the crowd and figure it out. There's basically no seating except for a small bench off to the side. Very limited space. And to make the lines even longer, there's no menu displayed for everyone to see--so you have to wait until you reach the counter and then decide on the spot. The most popular drinks are the fruit/superfood teas, but they also offer brewed tea, milk teas, and matcha. Personally, I'm more of a classic tea person. I'm not crazy about the fancy shmancy trendy drinks with a ton of add-ins and artisanal toppings. Sure, they're pretty to look at--but I prefer to keep it simple. I ordered two black milk teas with tapioca pearls. I requested less ice and the lowest sugar level. Both drinks with tax + tip came out to almost $20. At that price, I was really hoping and praying that the drinks would be dang good. After ordering, your order # shows up on a screen so you can track the status. Mine took almost 30 minutes. Expect long wait times during weekends/peak hours because there's a TON of foot traffic. They also get slammed with mobile orders. There wasn't any space for people to wait for their orders. It got so packed and disorganized that the crowd was spilling into the mall's walkway. First sip? Immediate no. GIRL. It tasted like straight milk with the faintest hint of black tea. They got a basic milk tea wrong... really disappointing. The tapioca had a strange taste. I couldn't put my finger on it, but it did not taste like any boba I've had before. It almost tasted TOO starchy. The barista also put foam on top, which I didn't ask for. It was more like watered down whipped cream, not like the salty cheese foam I've had at other places. I was not a fan. Major L. Sometimes ya just have to take one. These drinks were not worth $20 and a 30 minute wait. I would not come back to this location. Maybe I would've had a better experience if I came on a slower weekday or if a different barista made my drink, but I'm not interested in finding out. I'll give HeyTea ONEEEEE more chance. They just opened a new one near me at the Garden State Plaza. I will most definitely be going during off hours. Fingers crossed. But three strikes... and yerrrrrrrrr out.

It was a quiet Monday, which means they had all the attention for us. We had 4 rolled ice creams…read moreand 2 boba drinks. Because of the process, the rolled ice cream takes a while, so not everyone in a party may end up enjoying their treats at the same time. These days, sweets can get very pricey, so this is definitely a treat yourself experience. The boba here was very soft and chewy - the best I've had in a while. I don't think they have a good AC system because it was quite stuffy, and we hadn't even hit true summer heat yet!

As chains like Hey Tea continue to expand at an impressive rate, I still have a fondness for King…read moreFu Tea, which I consider one of the older chains. It used to be easy to find a Kung Fu Tea, but over time many have closed and at the moment I can maybe think of four locations scattered around NYC (I'm sure there are more). That said, whenever I come across a new location I check it out to see if they measure up to other locations. Located on the third floor food court of the American Dream Mall, this stand is tucked away off to the side. There is no seating, it is purely a take away stand. You go up to the cashier or use a kiosk to order and your drink is picked up to the left. I ordered my usual: a Red Bean Slush with Bubbles and no Sweet (the red bean mixture plus the bubbles has plenty of sweetness by itself for my taste). You'd be surprised but such a simple drink can be made badly. Sometimes there is too much ice so you lose all flavor. Other times there isn't a good amount of bubbles. And this will vary from visit to visit depending on the location. I am happy to report this time out this location nailed it. The drink was made perfectly and the flavor had an excellent balance between the red bean and sweet flavors. The slush texture was perfect as well. Well done! For this visit at least, this location made my drink right and very quickly to boot. I would happily go back again.

I usually love going to Kung Fu Tea, but I was most disappointed with this one. I would recommend…read moregoing to a Kung Fu Tea outside of the mall. While it's great for them to get so many customers, the quality of the drinks is not there. They are just pumping out drinks due to long lines. I ordered: - coconut milk tea with boba: the coconut flavor was faint, and the boba was not good - there was no chew, and usually their boba is soaked in syrup or honey (which was not the case here) - pina colada slush: came out melted (disappointing, especially when it was a hot day outside) I'll still be going to Kung Fu Tea - but not this one.

I'm a big dumpling lover. So when I saw a Vanessa's Dumpling House in the American Dream Mall food…read morecourt, I was pretty excited. I recognized the franchise from my visits to Chinatown, the mecca of dumplings and foolishly assumed that meant good eats were to be had here. But this was such a disappointment. Call me a grump, but I believe the namesake food at an establishment should be the best thing on the menu. We ordered two kinds - a fried pork chive dumpling and a boiled chicken and basil. But if I were blindfolded, I don't think I could've told them apart because both wrappers were not only thick but had similarly gummy textures. The chicken and basil dumplings also had a pinkish purple hue that gave it the off-putting look of raw chicken. After a few ho-hum attempts to eat them, my husband and I ended up forgoing the wrappers entirely and simply rescued the innards with our chopsticks. On the slight plus side, these tasted great - well seasoned and meaty. The spicy beef dan dan noodles were okay. For all the sauciness and toppings on it, I was surprised that the word that came to mind was 'boring'. As far as flavor went, there was a slightly fermented funk that made it just a little interesting, but I ended up dousing my bites with Sriracha to add the fun I felt was needed. A bright spot of our order was the side of sweet and spicy cucumbers we randomly ordered. Doused in a vinegary chili oil, this provided just the fresh texture and acid that brightened up our otherwise dispirited meal.
