    The staff was very friendly. Order a $9 bucket drink and you can add toppings with additional 50 cents. You can sign up using your phone number for their loyalty points AND there's a claw machine! You can ask for less ice. Definitely worth it! There's plenty of place to sit and enjoy your boba. Would highly recommend coming back here!

    Came here after dinner a few nights ago with family. I decided to try a fruity drink while the others got ube dream with boba, and strawberry with boba. I got the lychee with lychee jelly. It was delicious and I love the lychee jelly! I am only visiting but next time I come from Las Vegas, I would stop by again!

    Lil M is the best bubble tea shop on the island! I love their earl grey milk tea and its even better hot now that it's getting cold out! I tried their jumbo wings, tenders, and shrimp sticks and they all tasted delicious! Their food is made fresh! The shop has seating if you want to sit and chat with friends! They also have claw machines with the cutest prizes! Their staff is very friendly and nice! They answer any questions you have and are very honest with their wait times! I am so excited to come back and try more of their drinks!

    Friendly service, cute claw machines. Yakult drink was fizzy for some reason, I don't particularly love that. But very fair prices on menu.

    Cute place, not many local bubble tea shops in Staten Island. Owner is always nice, service is good. Came here with my three younger siblings. Kid friendly! They also have some claw machines with plushies in it. Our drinks were good! Not the same as chain bubble tea shops though.

    There are few boba places within Staten Island. I stumbled upon this place while I was doing some driving practice, and I was so glad I came across this boba joint. The service was excellent. Upon entering, you'll see claw machines on the left side. This is a great place to chill and hang out on a hot summer day. Their boba price are very reasonable compared to other boba places. I decided to try their Ube Dream drink, and it was smooth and creamy. I would order this drink again next time I visit. Note, order the bucket size instead of the large size for this drink

    Boba and prizes! Metal straws from their reopening event.

    This is my favorite bubble tea place on the island, and I drink a lot of boba! They've reopened after over a year and are bigger and better than before. The owners, Michelle and Victor, are extremely kind and welcoming. They take their time to actually talk to and get to know their customers. Lil M also stands out from other boba places since they have claw machines (where you can actually win! Look at all my prizes) and food/snacks on top of drinks. My top drinks currently are the brown sugar milk +tea and the fruit master. For food, you have to try the wings. They're huge, super crispy, and delicious! I've been going through a really tough time personally- Michelle and Victor have helped to put a smile on my face with their generosity, hospitality, claw machines, and delicious drinks/food. Thanks, Lil M!

    Went to the location on Hylan and I honestly couldn't recommend this place enough. The worker today was so kind and helpful. It's such a welcoming, fun environment and the drinks make it all worth it.

    Thai iced tea boba and Rose Milk Tea

    Great boba! Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and it was relatively empty and chill. We got the Thai iced tea boba and Rose milk tea with milk cap. They were both delicious! The boba was nice and soft which is key to good boba. We were also able to win a prize at the arcade claw machine on our first try! What a lucky day for us. We'll be back to try out luck again and some other drinks.

    Cute little cafe located on the busy Main Street gets a lot of attention for the right reasons. The bubble tea was very good and they had the plenty of vegan substitute options for everyone! I tried the coconut milk tea with coconut milk and bubbles and it was amazing. My friend got the brown sugar which was a little too sweet but he liked it anyway. Just wished that we could adjust the sugar level on that one as well. You can adjust sugar and ice level to your liking for most of the teas and that's great as not many people like it sweet. The seating area was also very cute and nice. They had fun arcade and crane games that you could play while you wait for your tea (which did not take too long at all!). I would love to see more desserts or appetizers at this spot and it would be perfect.

    Matcha and mango tea with tapioca. Delicious shrimp rolls.
    Rozina V.

    Love this place! So many delicious flavors. We have tried their matcha, rose, green apple and mango bubble tea to name a few and they are all great. Their shrimp rolls are a must have, they pair perfectly with the sweet chili sauce!

    I came for the grand reopening at 12pm and there was a huge line of people inside and out of the tea shop. It took an hour and 20 minutes to get my drink because there was just that many people that came to support and try this shop. The first 100 people were able to get a metal boba straws and mochi. All drinks were $3 including the signature drinks. This location is probabaly 4 times as big as the old location and it's such a cute place to hangout with friends and take some nice pictures. The workers inside were super apologetic over the long wait time and even under all the stress they still had a smile on their face and thanked us for coming by. Personally, the drinks were not as great as I hoped it would be. The Thai milk tea did not really have much of a strong flavor to it. The brown sugar milk tea had a very odd taste to it. The chocolate milk tea tasted watered down. The next time I come I will just try the classic milk tea since we didn't get to try that yet and it's soemthing that I would think is a good representation of how well a bubble tea shop is.

    Strawberry bubble tea with fresh fruit, so yummy.

    Came here with my boyfriend a few months ago! I actually see his review on here lol…read more Food is fresh, hot and delicious, with really good portions! (I say hot because I burnt my mouth taking my first bite haha...) I ordered the Beef Lo Mein, which was good but different from other lo meins I usually order because it had a more soupy sauce! I also got their iced Lychee Green Tea with Regular sugar, which I loved. Service was very fast and the inside of the place was nice and clean! 10/10 Would come back!

    We were in the area dropping our dog off and it was getting late. We originally planned to eat at a…read morepopular spot in Manhattan, but since it was getting late (and I was getting hangry, lol), we decided to look for something nearby. That's when we found Lion Dance in Staten Island. Honestly, I didn't expect much because this place is on Staten Island. I've lived here my whole life, and to be real, not a lot of food spots here are that good. I usually go to other parts of NYC to eat. But BOY, WAS I WRONG. I got the pork soup dumplings, lotus leaf steamed rice with beef and broccoli, shrimp siu mai, and a mango green tea with medium sugar and mango jelly. Everything was so good! The biggest surprise was the lotus leaf steamed rice, it had so much flavor and went perfectly with the beef. The portion was big too. The soup dumplings were juicy, the siu mai were fresh, and the mango green tea was super refreshing. Service was quick, the staff was friendly, and the place was clean and nicely decorated. Overall, I loved the food, the vibe, and the service. Definitely coming back and if you're from Staten Island, trust me, this spot is worth checking out!

    Have to say sometimes you can judge a book by its cover... a friend stopped in to pick up a drink…read moreand I was game to try a new place for bubble tea. I told him I love Jasmine Peach tea with lychee boba not too sweet, less ice. I just wanted a medium size. He calls me to say they do not have Jasmine just regular peach tea and no lychee boba but Kanton jelly. I was game and agreed sight unseen and no menu in front of me. He came back and I first inspected the packaging of cup, quite nice. The packaged straw looked very thin to capture boba. I took the plastic cover off and opened seal and it looked like peach oolong tea. I took one sip and boy you could tell the look of DISAPPOINTMENT on my face.. just sorry to say, awful. The straw was paper thin and I could not capture the jelly, I took a fork to the bottom of my cup and saw " worm like jelly". How a paper thin straw could capture long pieces of jelly is beyond me. The plastic dome, once I took off, couldn't be put back properly. I could not believe that this "large " drink cost $10. A complete and utter rip off. Sorry to say, I will not be a future patron. There are so many fantastic bubble tea with less fancy packaging.
