The drinks are always good but some days the wait time becomes very long. Taro milk tea 1/2 sugar and low ice always good.

How nice to find this bubble tea store open late on a weeknight! A coconut winter melon drink hit the spot after I met my friend for an event at the Reston Community Center. That is right across the parking lot from this Kung Fu Tea. Kudos to Paola behind the counter. She was so patient while I decided on a special fall drink and she helped me customize it so it wasn't too sweet. Both staff members were friendly, so I felt very welcomed from the moment I walked in. I would definitely visit again next time I'm in the area!

Good tea, nice boba, friendly staff, and they've done a great job adjusting to new covid restrictions and cleaning policies. My only complaint is the drinks are consistently too sweet, even if you ask for them less sweet. The boba is that perfect Q texture, but even the boba itself is some of the sweeter boba I've had. The rose hip tea is one you actually can't order sweeter--they say they don't sweeten it--but boy is it sweet. I do love the floral taste though, so I can't complain too much. Wintermelon was also good--it tastes like the rind of a watermelon if you've never had the actual fruit before. In the winter months, if you're looking for a warm treat, look no further. They have freshly made waffles you can get plain, with Nutella, with cream cheese, brown sugar topping, or more. We got Nutella and it was so fresh and warm!

4 stars for now as they still need to work a few corks out. Came by this morning and was told they'll open sometime after 1 pm. I made sure to drive by here after work around 4 only to be told they'll open to the public around 5. Made it back here at 7 pm and they were finally accepting orders. It looks like they're still training their employees which is why they're a bit slow and just stumbling over each other in the working area, but they were friendly. I've noticed only 2 machines working for now which may slow down the process as well. I ordered my usual: the winter melon milk green tea with bubbles. Even though they messed up the order and 3 people who ordered after me got their drinks before me (they were apologetic about it), my bubble tea was as delicious as always. I pretty much chugged it and was ready for another one. Welcome to Reston, KFT!

Kung Fu Tea is a great franchise - very consistent no matter what location you go to - at least that's been my experience so far. Stopped by this location on a whim: nice location, parking sits right out front, decent amount of interior seating.

I am a fan of KFT but not this particular location. The service here is very lackluster compare to the other locations that I have been to. The service isn't terrible but it can't compete with the super cheery and super helpful service of the others. My drink was way overfilled one time and I'm pretty sure one of the employees just watched me struggle to clean up the mess on my own. The trash can was also located away from the counter at the time, so it was wiping the counter with loads of napkins, dripping with bubble tea to the ground, while transferring the mess to the trash. I'm still a fan of the variety and customization that I get with KFT. This is the closest location to me. The service is quick but the quality of the service isn't too great.

Multiple visits and the bubbles taste stale/dry. Disappointed. The tea otherwise tastes as expected.

Very interesting concept as this place seems to be more of a dessert shop, I am curious on how good the viet food is.. maybe one day! I ordered the valentine bingsu which consist of a bunch of fruit and vanilla ice cream. The bingsu was advertised with "milky ice flavor" which I did not taste the "milky" part. The shredded ice was a great consistency, though! Easy to scoop up, melts fast, & not ice-y which to me is crucial to a decent bingsu. The strawberries paired were great and very sweet, the peach felt like it was from a can, pineapple gave off canned vibes, except it was extremely bitter and basically gone bad. Mangoes were OK not very sweet and Vanilla ice cream was good but you can't go wrong with that if it's store-bought. Overall would give this a 5/10 maybe 4.5/10. You order on the kiosk or at the counter. I opted for the kiosk as the employees were busy, I did however asked at the counter to Change my order after once I realized they had the valentine bingsu since I was feeling more fruit desserts (originally ordered the strawberry & cream). They were accommodating which I appreciated! Service was nice for the most part - the guy that served me my order did not acknowledge me when I said thank you... or when we took him the dish after the food and said thanks again lol service can be spotty based on who you get I guess? Again Curious on the viet food here!

I rate restaurants within their category and concept. I am not comparing a neighborhood boba and…read moretea shop to a Michelin star dining experience. If a place consistently delivers quality drinks, strong execution, and keeps us coming back, that earns a top rating from me. Teadm absolutely does that. We go to Teadm in Sterling often, and it has become one of our go to spots for drinks. Their Brown Sugar Milk Tea with boba is outstanding. Rich, creamy, and full of flavor, with the kind of texture that keeps you coming back for another sip. One thing I really appreciate is that their milk teas are actually milky and creamy. They are not thin or watery like at some other places. Also, the added traditional boba is excellent! It is consistently chewy, fresh tasting, and cooked perfectly every time. That kind of consistency matters, and they clearly pay attention to quality. They also offer a Brown Sugar Milk option with no caffeine, which is fantastic for the kiddos. Same creamy, satisfying flavor profile without the caffeine, and that has made it a family favorite. Another consistent winner is their Seasalt Bac Xiu Coffee. It never disappoints. Great balance of sweetness, coffee flavor, and that salted cream element that makes it so enjoyable. We have also tried the Color Switch Lemonade, which is good and fun to order. If I could offer one suggestion, I would love to see a classic simple lemonade or a lychee lemonade added to the menu as well. Overall, this place rocks. Great drinks, consistent quality, family friendly options, and the kind of menu that keeps us coming back. A solid 5 stars from me.

Quick easy order online! You can also order in-store quickly on a screen as well!…read more Cute little place, Nice friendly service Music plays at a nice level where you can still talk Tea was delicious! I love how they wrapped it with the carrying bag

I'm not really sure what recipe they use for their taro milk tea, but when I stopped by once, it…read morewas little chunks of taro root in 2% milk. There wasn't any type of sugar or tea added to it. It was a bit strange. It was quite bland and didn't taste like anything. I wanted a little snack as well and was thinking about grabbing a snack after I got my tea. After tasting the tea though, I kinda lost my craving for a snack. I was quite disappointed by the taro milk tea. The one shop worker that was there was nice and polite. She was also patient and tried to get orders out as quickly as possible. Her attitude and work ethic were great. I'm giving three stars for her professionalism and patience because there were a lot of people coming in to order and/or pick up mobile orders. She remained composed and professional. I wouldn't go back, but I think a lot of people have really good experiences so they might be a worth a try.

Great product from an amazing team member!…read more After lunch, I had boba on the mind. This place was the closest, but it was a fantastic choice. The place is clean has plenty of room for indoor seating. The tea-maker asked if we wanted anything in particular, and warned me about my first inkling... I asked about the taro milk tea... it was from the root and not the powder. I know the difference and was glad that he made an effort to give me heads up. I went with a Tiger Milk Tea boba and was super pleased with the results. I ordered the small and it was both refreshing and filling. The boba was cut fresh, it was actually warm. I would certainly visit this boba place again.

The duck roll has hard not chewable meats in all of them, we had to spit them out. Papaya salad can use a bit more thai seasoning, the spicy level was good. Pad thai was very yummy so were the veggie dishes. the atmosphere was so-so, furnitures definitely need to be updated, as they will be going through renovations in September. the cute figurine on the walls were adorable. located in a busy shopping center, parking can be difficult to find at times. do recommend put up a mirror in the restrooms during your next month renovations. foodies of @WineDinenVacay enjoyed majority of this visit, plan to return post renovation.

My wife and I finally decided to try this place after years of saying "one day". We've now ordered twice in the past 2 weeks. The first time we ordered the Ka Prow fried rice and the drunken noodles with medium spice and chicken. I ordered the lunch size drunken noodles and it was a good amount of food! They were the best drunken noodles I've had around here by far. And the Ka Prow fried rice was so smoky and full of flavor! It makes all other fried rices feel boring in comparison. This time I ordered the Kao Soi chicken. It had a delicious red curry sauce and two whole chicken legs with the egg noodles. I loved how rich the flavor of the soup is. The full grilled squid was something we ordered on our first time and it was also really good but I think a tad overcooked. I can't really speak to service other than the staff being friendly when I've walked in to grab our order. But the inside of the restaurant is cozy. We will definitely keep coming back here and highly recommend it if you're in the area.
