    Peach Tea!!
    Rose H.

    I'll always come here for their peach tea. The service is fast most of the time. I also love their snacks the toasted baguette with hot chili is surprisingly good and I love their banh trang tron

    This is a Vietnamese boba shop and it has the BEST green milk tea. I like their green milk tea by itself with full sweetness but if you aren't a fan of overly sweet drinks, I would consider adjusting the sweetness down. The green collection comes with milk and matcha jello which is good but I prefer just drinking without scooping with a spoon. I also usually get their milk tea no. 3 which is my favorite between that one and the no. 5. It is sweeter and has a strong tea flavor. Both of these get me caffeinated! The place is a little small but they have lots of tables, even some lower to the ground with some stools! They also play Vietnamese music in the back. Ordering was easy and fast with an easy to read menu too.

    Cute boba shop with unique offerings. We came in for a sweet treat after lunch. They not only have your traditional boba drinks and fruit teas but they also offer desserts featuring milk jello and street food bites. There were also packaged snacks for purchase as well. I opted for the salted foam coffee but got to sip the artichoke tea, green collection, and almond panna cotta lychee sweet dessert. All were good! We also ordered fried chicken feet. I cannot comment on that but the others loved it. Would definitely come back to try other drinks on their menu. The young ladies working there were very friendly and helpful for those of us who were first timers.

    Had extremely amazing tea flavor. I loved the toppings and choices and it is very hard to find these. I have only had them in Vietnam and the baristas were super chill and kind. I really loved and enjoyed the esthetic here as well. Solid spot and definitely worth checking it out!

    Been here a couple times and the drinks are decent. Not my favorite and they're not too sweet which is good if you don't like super sweet drinks. There's plenty of seating and decor is cute. Service is really quick.

    Sea salt foam with jasmine tea & boba

    The drink was ok, the boba was kinda hard making harder to chew It was good thing we came in the time that we did because there ended up being a huge rush afterwards filling the store. The store was packed with groups of people , quite a popular place to be !

    One of the best tea shops in Houston! They don't need to prove anything to you, they don't need crazy advertising or always show up on social media. They simply care for the tea leaves, the hidden brown sugar note in their milk tea No.5 (if you like "dry" milk tea, give it a try) Tips: I always adjust my sugar level to 50% and add boba to balance the sweetness. Tho I quite like boba from Fengcha better, it is still very uniquely chewy and tasty. Milk tea No.3 is more milky and less tea flavor, and milk tea No.2 is just like green milk tea IMO so not very impressed with No.2 I have tried their cheese milk tea as well and would recommend it. It reminds me of cheese foam tea/milktea so if that's something you like go for it. Their mango tea is very refreshing, pair it with housemade fruit jelly for a perfect combo. The peach tea is a little strange to taste imo. Not sure if that's just very authentic or artificial... Overall, very good and unique drink recipes you can't find elsewhere. The staff is nice and the shop atmosphere always keeps up to seasonal events.

    Thai Green Tea & Milk Tea No. 3 (Classic Milk Tea)
    Bryan N.

    I've been to many Vietnamese-owned boba stores before, and would say the majority of them try to imitate the classic Taiwanese boba taste. Well not JTea. I ordered the Classic Milk Tea to see how they would pull off such a conventional drink and was very impressed by how different it tasted in the best way possible. The milk tea was very sweet and smooth, with just a touch of creaminess. I don't know what type of black tea is used here but the flavor is very complex. A little malty and honey-like, I have not tasted anything like it. It's for this reason alone that I keep wanting to come back to get this one of a kind drink. The Thai Green Tea also really impressed me. It is insanely sweet so I recommend dialing down the sweetness, but whatever blend of green tea they used to make this drinks is super tasty and pleasant. If you are used to traditional Taiwanese boba and want a unique Vietnamese twist on the drinks JTea is place to visit. 9/10!

    Royal Artichoke, Green Collection, Brown Collection
    Queenie H.

    Upon entering we've noticed that indeed, the vibes were poppin'. Decor was on point, aesthetic was on point, and most importantly, bubble tea was it. I had the Brown Collection which was brown sugar milk tea with various jellies topped with a sea salt cold foam. I've had brown sugar milk teas before and a lot of them are noticeably sweet. This was just the perfect balance of sweet, tea flavor, and salty from the foam which all balanced so nicely. The additional jellies were a fun touch of textures and additional flavors, all not too overwhelming. I guess my only complaint was the amount of ice in the cup but at least the tea stayed cold! The boba was also more of a jelly like texture rather than the traditional tapioca, which I didn't mind that much.

    Love coming by this boba shop in Bellaire. They are known for the best green milk tea! I ordered the green collection which consisted of matcha boba and milk jello. I usually adjust the sugar level just because I don't like extra sweet drinks. Interior is pretty decent size, nothing too special. The drinks are what makes customers come Back! And service is quick. Menu is simple and very easy to read.

    Jtea is my number one favorite boba spot in Bellaire. However, they added furnitures and more seating areas but it looks very crowded especially at the cashier. Also, they raised the price of the to-go green tea bottle to $7.75 (with no toppings), more expensive than their Green Collection which is $7.50 (with toppings). That is insane! The drinks are still really good, but the price crazy. They also gave less toppings for the Green Collection we ordered, mostly just cheese foam, barely any jello and boba. My favorite boba shop, but very expensive now

    Tiramisu milk tea with flan
    Clara C.

    This boba shop was a bit out of the way for me, but it's just down Bellaire Blvd. I came here in the afternoon on a week day, and there was still a line! I was so surprised. Parking was easy to find, just not directly in front of JTea. They have a small lot shared with other businesses. I got what my Vietnamese friend told me to order: Tiramisu milk tea 25% sugar + khuc bach. The khuc bach was an extra $2.50, so my order came out to like $8-9. RIP my wallet. It was like a slightly harder version of jello. There were some regular milk (white) ones and matcha (green) pieces. It tasted ok. The drink was good though. I can see the hype. I'm glad I got 25% sugar because it was still really sweet for me! The drink comes with lychee jelly on the bottom. I didn't fall in love with this crazy drink, but it wasn't bad. I think I just prefer a simple milk tea.

    I have had this boba shop called JTea in bellaire on my list of places to try for a long time but have never had the chance to go to. Finally, I was able to try it and I'm so glad I was able to. They're known for green milk tea, which is basically a Thai green milk tea. You can tell you're in a Vietnamese establishment the moment you walk in. They have Vietnamese music and radio playing, the really low tables with stools found on the streets of Vietnam, and a bunch of snacks for sale. They have a lot of exotic drinks that are usually hard to find as well. I got their signature green milk tea with milk jello. They also added some matcha jello as well even though it wasn't listed on the menu. The green milk tea is so good. It has a strong tea flavor, with the common floral taste of Thai green milk tea, not too bitter, and most importantly, delicious. The matcha jello was whatever to me but I really liked the milk jello. They also have bottled green milk tea for sale too if you just want the drink by itself.

    So Delicious

I love their app, highly recommend it to pre-order through the app, it's extremely accurate in term of wait time and easy to use. However, there are a couple of downsides: their matcha is just average, their menu is a bit limited, and my favorite drinks are frustratingly often out of stock or out of season. My top recommendations are the Coconut Mango Boom, Cloud Jasmine Tea (basic but so good), Yuzu Oolong Tea, Brown Sugar Milk Tea, Mochi Yingde Black Milk Tea, Grapefruit Boom and the toasty/wheat-y Longji Cloud Milk Tea.

We tried the highly recommended mango boom and the yuzu green tea, which were both solid choices. I downloaded the app and was able to place my order from there by-passing the long line at the counter. However, it still took a significant amount of wait time for my order number to be called to pick up my drinks. The app had some deals that discounted my order, which was a plus. Not sure if I'd go out of my way to return, but if it comes up as a suggested place, I wouldn't pass it up.

Toppings are $1-$1.50 and includes grass jelly, coffee jelly, cream, single shot, or extra matcha. I've tried their egg coffee, coconut coffee, ube coffee, pandan coffee, and black sesame. Although I love all of them, my current fav is the black sesame! YUM!! I've yet to try their matcha and teas, but Trung Nguyen is always on our list whenever we're in town- so I will for sure try their other drinks at one point or another. Viet coffee is everywhere in Houston (and I love that). With Trung Nguyen, your drinks are consistent, and you can always count on getting the strongest coffee (not watered down) whenever you get their coffee.

    So glad to hear that one recently opened up in Houston. Would LOVE to take my cousins here one day…read more Environment/Atmosphere - Super crowded when we got here, but the lines moved fast, and there was a kiosk to self-order if you didn't want to wait in line for the cashier. One of my favorite things was how fragrant the space smelled while I waited for my boba. You could tell there was an exceptional tea aroma lingering despite all the cream and sweetness. The place was exceptionally clean for being so busy, and the workers consistently cleaned as they made the drinks, so you knew you could trust the sanitation here. Drink Design - I have to make a separate comment on how CUTE these drinks were. I loved the intentional sticker placement over the lips and the little carrying handle. You could tell they went the extra mile to make these drinks not just flavorful, but an experience in and of themselves. Even their receipt paper felt luxurious. That sounds ridiculous to point out, but the thought behind every aspect of this place is impeccable. High Mountain Pouchong Tea w. Lemon Juice & Mousse (Creamy Lemon Tart) - After all the sugar I had today, this lemony drink hit the spot with its perfect tartness. The cream had bits of lemon zest in it, adding to the aroma. I tried to adjust the sweetness when I ordered and was told it had a built-in sweetness, but if I found it too sweet, they would happily switch it out for another drink. I felt like I was dealing with Amazon's generous return policy--and luckily, the drink was perfect, so no return was needed! Creamy Mango Tart - Literally like the Lemon Tart, but mango. I loved this just as much and really enjoyed the refreshing flavors of BOTH tarts. Instantly a fan favorite. Dong Ding Oolong Tea w. Fresh Milk - Very mild and creamy, almost like a mellow latte. Not my favorite because it was a bit too creamy after everything else I had today. Still, I loved the tea profile and can absolutely see why others would love it. Overall, I love, love, LOVE this place. 1000/10. From the experience to the quality and intentionality behind every little detail, I couldn't be happier with my visit. I never thought I'd ever say that a drink was so Instagram-worthy, but these drinks were beautiful--like models of the boba world. Would go back in a heartbeat. This has officially won the spot for my favorite boba place.

One nice addition that I saw was a Photo Booth and tea tasting station! You don't have to worry about parking as it's located in a strip mall so there's quite a bit of spaces. Overall I enjoyed my time and would like to try other tea options here.
