    A5. Milk Tea with Boba and Puff Cream + H1. Original Bubble Waffle with Boba (secret menu)
    Maggie L.

    I like this location a lot. The staff is always friendly, and the store is clean. It gets busy on weekends. My toddler (and myself) love the bubble waffle (crunchy exterior and soft inside). My go-to drink is the Ube Milk Tea with Taro Balls. For something refreshing, I recommend the Fresh Lemon series, like Wintermelon Lemonade. I've ordered boba as topping a couple times. But the texture of the boba just isn't to my liking, which is the reason I recommend the taro balls instead.

    Food is delish! Can never get enough of bubble waffles! Yum!!! Service is fast and ambience is inviting. Good snack! Boba & bubble waffle fix!

    I love Happy Lemon and it was my first visit to this location. Walking in, I felt comfort with the soft lighting and decor. It was very clean and the gal who helped me was very nice and made everything I ordered, perfectly. I definitely recommend!

    F3. Strawberry Jasmine Tea with Lychee Jelly

    I went to Happy Lemon on an impulse and was pleasantly surprised! The service: I was the only person there at the time I went, and I got my order within two or three minutes of ordering it! The staff were helpful as well. The food: I got the F3 on the recommendation board, which is essentially some sort of strawberry jasmine bubble tea with lychee jelly. It was amazing! And the drink cup is larger than I expected, perhaps 16 ounces. The environment: All lemon themed, yellow and white! Very clean, nicely lit place. Final thoughts and price: My drink was expensive, $7.35 for one bubble tea drink. It's good and definitely worth the price, though! Definitely one of those only once in a while treats.

    Location is fine near Big Lots. Normally a safe area, however two doors down at BECU a lady was shot at the atm, so I probably won't going to this location in the evening. I've been to this location when it first opened. I've been to several Happy Lemons in Bellevue, Redmond, tukwila before locations popped up in Kent or Covington. This particular location the gals working the counter aren't particularly friendly people. Not like bobalust in Kent where I get over the top customer service. Only reason I visit a Hapoy Lemon if for their bubble waffle. I'm normally satisfied with how the bubble waffle turns out. Crispy on the outside and soft inside. This one came out ok, and the cook was uneven. Inside is small and quaint. Enough space if you and a friend wants to hang out, only problem is not a lot of room if you bring a group to get some treats. Even though I don't get quite the service I do when I visit other boba tea places, I still give them a fair tip. I'm Not too happy with the way the bubble waffle turned out though.

    When in at 1:20 pm not one person was there ordered two bubble waffles. We waited 10 minutes. Got one a worm waffle and one was cold waffle with burnt pieces. I also got the cookies and cream dip and it was not good. I didn't have time to wait for another one to be made. This is my 2nd time going to the Covington store I will not be going back.

    K4. Mango Smoothie with boba, oat milk and no added sugar

    Boba is very fresh now under new management! Great to get some good bubble tea. Ordered the K4 Mango Smoothie with boba, oat milk and no added sugar.

    One of the best boba shops in the area! Their drinks are consistently delicious every time I order. I've been loving their secret menu and the rewards program is legit!

    Finally! A Happy Lemon in Covington! I love their crisp and chewy bubble waffles with a side of salted cheese. I tried A7, cold, which is milk tea with boba, coconut jelly, and pudding. It was amazing!!!

    Everybody who worked there was very friendly and attentive. The ambience was very well done, and I really like the aesthetic feeling of the building. I like the yellow and the gray I got the brown sugar Boba tea, and I added tapioca I do like the fact that you can customize how much ice you get and how much sugar you have. The only downside to this place is you only have one choice for size. As far as sizes go, I think it's a fair price for the size however, I could never drink a full Boba tea, so maybe not fair for someone like myself

    Our family has always been a fan of Happy Lemon. So glad they have one near our house! Inside is clean and modern looking. Staff are welcoming. They're still so brand new and are working out the kinks. We ordered two drinks and one of the drink was not tightly sealed and so there was some leakage going on. But they solved the problem by putting a plastic lid over it. Perfect! We will surely return in the near future! Pro tip: if you're going to get the bubble waffle, get their puff cream dipping sauce - game changer *Chef kiss*

    I'm so stoked to see a Happy Lemon opened closeby to me! I found this place out from my friend who lives near the area. They were having a bogo promotion at their opening, so I had to take the opportunity to go! The shop was small but had some cute wall decors. The staff were friendly and were still in training. I ordered their mango green tea and regular milk tea. The drinks were consistent like most Happy Lemons. I did not order their bubble waffle this time but will return again for that. FYI this place is located at a shopping plaza by Big Lots.

That said, the food didn't quite meet my expectations, especially considering the prices. The pho broth was on the sweeter side, which may be a preference for some, but wasn't my favorite. I also ordered a banh mi sandwich and was disappointed that the bread wasn't warm or toasted. Overall, the ambiance was the highlight of the experience, but I'm not sure I'll be back.

The food is very authentic with all the traditional Vietnamese flavour you expect from a family operated establishment. The grilled pork is juicy and flavourful, the Banh Mi' has a crunchy outside and a fluffy inside with all the great taste you expect from a quality sammy. I ordered the grilled chicken rice dish and loved every bite. The grilled pork spring roll was super fresh and is honestly one of the best I've had in a long time. Give this place a try when you're in the area, focus on the food and you'll be pleasantly surprised how good it is. Note: the bad reviews are from people who consistently bash and trash on Yelp. The best reviews are coming from Yelpers with Vietnamese last names. Who do you trust more when reading a review on Vietnamese food, Karen Smith or Tram Nguyen?

There's many tables in the back here, and it feels very casual and perfect for some nightly hangouts with friends or, in this case, a card game afternoon with a friend. I ordered through a kiosk near the front counter, while my friend ordered up at the counter itself. Server there was helpful with some of the modifications he wanted on his drink. I got their Oreo milk tea with 50% sweetness and ice levels. Nothing too special here, just tons of crushed Oreo bits and your regular oolong tea base, perfect for keeping me full the rest of the day. 50% sweetness was enough; any more and the drink would have been too much. There's also a backdrop where you can take photos of or with your drinks if you'd like. Place was decent in terms of cleanliness; some tables were a little dirty but we still had a good time here.

Boba is soft and chewy Mango sago drink was pricey at $9.50 but surprisingly tasted really good (no artificial taste; right amount of mango and coconut taste) I was also impressed in my online order I wrote a note that I wanted one smoothie with "no milk, just slush" and that's exactly how it came!- a lot of places don't seem to acknowledge customer notes... Inside was really cute, a little dim so it felt relaxing. But times I went it was pretty inside (went within 3 days cause it was so good and my friends really liked their drinks too!)

P10 Pho (Steak, Brisket, Meat Balls, and Tripe) (5/5): Hands down one of the best pho I've had. The bowl was packed with a tremendous amount of different beef cuts, and the meat to noodle ratio actually leans heavily toward the protein, which is a welcome surprise. The soup stays consistently hot throughout the entire meal, likely thanks to the stainless steel bowls they use, ensuring every bite is just as delicious as the first. Logistics Tip: Arriving on a weekend morning shortly after opening is a great way to secure a table, but keep in mind that the service can be a bit slower if there's only one waitress.

Nice dining room and they paid constant attention to any tables that had turned over to make sure they cleaned it very quickly. I was there for about 45 minutes and they had a steady line of people and food delivery people picking up orders. The menu had a lot of different options. I went with spring rolls and brisket pho. The broth was absolutely incredible. The portion size was perfect, not overly huge like you get at a lot of places. The sliced vegetables were fresh and delicious. The two people waiting on customers were great. Very kind and professional and worked hard to make sure that things were clean and the orders were all accurate. Great Value and I highly recommend it. Looking forward to my next visit.

I came here with my boyfriend for dinner, we hadn't eaten anything all day, and we were starving. The place had one other person inside, so we got seated quickly. Upon sitting down, I grabbed utensils from the utensil container, and they were all dirty. I had to rinse them in my water cup and wipe it down before using. I got the regular size Pho Tai for $15~, my bf got the beef teriyaki, extra meat for $20~. I thought it was weird how they also charge extra if you want extra lime or cilantro/onions, I've never seen a pho restaurant do that... My pho was more like a small size compared to other places, with less than an average portion of meat. My meat was tough to chew and dry. The soup was very oily. On top of that, my pho was served with a strand of hair. Thankfully, I saw it before I started eating, our server was kind and brought out a new bowl of pho. However, that was not the only issue; the beef teriyaki was just as underwhelming as my pho. It looked more like a beef stir fry, and the beef was even TOUGHER to chew. I do not recommend this place if you are looking for Vietnamese comfort food.
