    The ladies were very patient and helpful as I tried to figure out what to order. I ended up with Winter Melon Tea with Mango Jelly. It was a bit too sweet, but that's ok because you can choose your sweetness level. Next time I'll know to ask for "less sweet" My only complaint was that even though they had about 5 different teas, they wouldn't really let me customize the flavor because it wasn't a choice on the menu. I'll still go back because they have a great selection of beverages.

    Ordered the strawberry lemonade! It was very refreshing! Staff were super nice and friendly. Fast service on a Monday afternoon and no line. Yes- please! The next time your at Destiny USA- you gotta grab a boba, milk tea or lemonade from Kung Fu tea!

    Kung Fu Tea is a franchised brand with plenty of locations around the US - as well as locations in Australia, Canada, and Vietnam. Admittedly, I'm usually a bit of a snob about chain locations, but the Kung Fu Tea location in Destiny USA is pretty top notch for a chain location. Kung Fu Tea isn't some artisan bubble tea place, so it's good to keep your expectations in check... but their teas are tasty AND you can customize your bubble tea for your tastes (plus, they have special flavors during various seasons). Some places make bubble teas that are way too sweet for me, for example, or they fill them up with ice and leave minimal room for actual tea and boba. Kung Fu Tea's ordering process allows you to customize for those tastes... and I always get my tea orders with less sugar and less ice. Every time I've ordered tea from this location, the taste is just what I'm looking for. Also, this location specifically is exceedingly quick at filling drink orders (which, considering there's a sizable line pretty much 9 times out of 10? The prompt service definitely helps) AND the prices are reasonable. TL;DR Dependable stop for bubble tea, especially when wandering through Destiny USA for some shopping. My tea orders have always tasted as expected, and the service is VERY quick.

    So I decided to come back and try again! I got the rosehip milk tea, which is my favorite, and it was delicious. I tried to order with less sugar but it wasn't an option so I got regular. Still too much sugar for a bubble tea, overly sweetened. But it was delicious nonetheless. I'd suggest creating more options in terms of how much sugar to add, because other locations have options like more or less sugar. Also could've added more Boba, considering I got a large and there was a tiny bit of Boba

    Located on the second floor of Destiny USA close to Michael's craft supply store, this bubble tea joint was a must visit over my labor day weekend. All summer I've been getting acquainted with the deliciously sweet, milky and bubbly concoctions but they always been from large franchises. Unfortunately I have not tried these in Asia and can't tell if it's the "real deal", but Kung Fu Tea looked successful judging by the amount of people waiting in line. I got the honey milk tea with pearls and my partner got the coffee milk tea. Service was speedy, drinks were made to our specifications however what disappointed me the most was the lack of flavored milk tea options. Compared to other places, Kung Fu does not offer many fruity variety of their milk teas. I was hoping for exotic flavors like mango or lychee but the menu is limited. I also thought that they were not very generous with the amount of bubbles scooped into my tea and these pearls were too soft. I understand there are cooked in batches throughout the day so it could just be a fluke. It should be noted that all their milk teas are made with non-dairy milk so this can be a plus for anyone with diet restrictions. If I was local I would definitely come back and try more options- for anyone considering bubble tea, or just iced tea, I say give it a shot, it's a fun treat but be careful it can get addicting!

    I've never had a drink with bubbles before so I tried it for the first time & I actually liked it. I ordered the taro mik tea drink and it was pretty tasty. I recommend this drink if it's your first time here. I also tried my daughter's drink which was the taro slush drink with bubbles but that was way too sweet. I think I would have to ask for half sweet next time. Overall, I was pleased with my drink & the workers were fast & efficient. I will definitely be back.

    The guys here are well kung

    If it were owned by cows, and was a manure processing plant, it'd be Dung Fu Tea. But if that were the case, I think it'd be pretty gross - like, almost as gross as swimming in the Onondaga Lake without a radiation suit on. OK, not almost as gross as that. But anyway. Let's mooooooove right along with this review. What to get: Lemon Black Tea With Tapioca! Or in winter: Any of the hot milk teas! Which milk teas are best: Honey Oolong! Oolong! Maybe Taro or Almond! Generally speaking, Kung Fu Tea scores 5, but it's usually a low 5, considering that it's a massive international corporate chain, whose milk teas don't match up to the best chains: Sharetea, Gong Cha and Coco. However, they're still really good, and the fruit teas here are among the best. Especially the lemon black tea which absolutely rocks my world. The Milk Teas that do stand alongside any of the best chains, though, are the Honey Oolong and the Oolong. The Honey Milk Tea is pretty good too. But always get Black Teas, not Green Teas. They're just better. In my opinion anyway. And getting these teas hot can really change the game on a winter's day. It makes the tapioca balls hot too. The Honey Oolong in particular is sensational when hot. This particular location, hidden deep inside the former Carousel Mall (now known as Destiny USA which sounds like a stripper), has really wonderful service - and fast as well, which makes a change from the slow locations in Buffalo and Cleveland. I also noticed that all of the employees are exceptionally tall. Maybe that's what happens to you when you eat lots of tapioca? (Eats More Tapioca) My lemon teas here were lovely (twice) and next time I'm in SYR I'll stop by and give one of their hot (if winter) or cold (if not) milk teas a try. Anyway let's get some food to go with our Bubble Teas. I'm feeling kung-ry.

    This was the best bubble tea I've ever had.Toro Bubble Tea with Honey Milk. Yummy
    Rahmir C.

    This is the best bubble tea i every had and trust me i tried many bubble tea's before and this is by far the best. The 2 Flavors i get is honey dew or toro. So i went with the toro with the honey milk this was very good I would definitely try this place again the staff was super friendly aswell.

    PASSION FRUIT

    I did not expect to walk by a place like Kung Fu Tea while walking around the Destiny USA mall but I'm sure glad i did! Bubble tea is huge in Toronto and I visit places like this regularly to quench my thirst, however it's not something you see very often in Western New York so I was super duper excited to try this place out. The line was pretty long on Sunday due to people who were visiting the Salt City Comic-Con (I was not one of them) coming for tea. I was extremely thirsty from spending the last few hours out in the heat walking around the zoo so I decided to get a passion fruit slush which is something I had not had in the past. The drinks only took a few minutes to come out and from there it was love at first sip. The passion fruit slush had so much delicious fruity flavour that it made me rather irritated that i had to actually wait for some of it to melt because it was, well, slush. Usually when I'm at a bubble tea place I look for the chocolate option but this place taught me to be an adult and definitely go with something fruity! Overall, Kung Fu Tea is a fantastic addition to the Destiny USA mall! I highly recommend giving this place a try and experience the craze that will hopefully be sweeping the state soon enough!

    I'm so excited that more bubble tea has come to the Syracuse area! if you've never had it before, now is the time to try! KFT is a popular bubble tea chain with many bubble tea options in terms of flavors, teas, sugar customizations, types and more! From the classics (plain milk black or green tea) to interesting slushes or other flavors (saw something about oreo) you are sure to find something you like here! The tapioca bubbles are excellent here and are quite sweet, so if you aren't sweet tooth, consider getting 70% or 50% sugar - and it will still be sweet. Of note, bubbles are $0.50 extra, and the smallest size is a "medium" - their bubble tea is a little bit pricey so be prepared to spend somewhere near $4 minimum on your drink The cafe is cute, clean, and modern. Service is friendly but a little slow as they're just getting started. I think eventually they'll be a fast and efficient well oiled machine that you find in their cafes elsewhere :)

    Kung fu tea and fake milk tea

    I ordered "green tea with milk" and the front desk gave me non-dietary creamer which contains no milk. When I pointed this out, they asked me to buy another one and told me all the bubble tea shop in the states sell "non-dietary creamer" when they say "milk tea". I refused to buy another one because I ordered "milk" in the first place. Moreover, in China, almost all the milk in milk tea actually can be replaced with real MILK. I don't drink non-dietary creamer personally and was told non-dietary creamer is bad for health in high school from my friend, so I put that so-called "milk tea" back. I'm sorry if I'm being a Karen. Just wondering if all natives actually love non-dietary creamer

    No bathroom, i guess maybe not necessary since it's inside the mall. The easiest way to find this is going to dicks sporting goods, it's across from it. Has seating inside. Accepts cards, no minimum purchase required. The fastest and most efficient kung fu tea i have been to. Knocked down a star because it is inside the mall, not the easiest to get to since destiny place is hard to find parking. Also located on a second floor. Would not recommend coming here to study, not conducive for that. Not sure if this place has wifi, but most kung fu tea does.

    Love it!
