I'm not an expert on authentic Chinese food, but if this is any indication, I'm all in. Definitely coming back. Would you like a one-line headline or a star rating to paste with this review?

This place is relatively new - very cute/nicely decorated and our waitress was friendly and…read morehelpful! However, the food was lacking and inauthentic, and the wait time to get our food was much longer than expected (looks like the kitchen is short-staffed). What we tried (best to worst): - Shan xi zha jiang noodle, D12 ($16.5): this looked enticing because it came with tomato egg, a childhood favorite of mine, and knife cut noodles. Both of those were quite yummy, but the black soybean sauce was way too overpowering. The noodles became drenched and too salty - I couldn't finish it by the end. - Hot oil seared noodle w/ minced pork & veggies, D1 ($15.5): my friend was really disappointed with this one - it wasn't what the menu pictures depicted at all / what we expected. The "veggies" turned out to be just breakfast potatoes, which was very surprising and strange. She did not enjoy this one, unfortunately. They also ran out of minced pork, which both of our dishes came with, so they "upgraded" us to regular pork. As stated above, love the restaurant vibe and loved our waitress. But considering the food quality and wait time, I don't think I'd return.

Stopped by E Tea while exploring the Wharf, and it was the perfect refreshing break!…read more We ordered the matcha and the honeydew drink with crystal boba, and both were excellent. I especially loved that you can customize both the sweetness and ice level, so it was easy to make the drinks just the way we like them. As someone who usually orders drinks less sweet, I really appreciated having that option. The staff were friendly, service was quick, and ordering was easy through the self-service iPad at the entrance. There isn't much seating, but it's the perfect spot to grab a drink and take a stroll along the waterfront. I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

Everything is ordered through a kiosk, and they text you when your drink is ready -- super convenient. Do the drinks take a while? Yes. But the décor is so wonderfully bizarre that you'll spend the wait looking around. The boba runs on the sweeter side, so I ordered mine at 25% sweetness and it was perfect. Its a perfect spot to grab a drink, hide from humanity, and enjoy some quality boba

Ive had more than my share of milk teas here in the US, overseas in the land of boba, Taiwan, and…read morein HK and this place sadly fell short of what it could be. First, their location is very inconvenient unless you are on foot, which may be great for U of MD students, but if you are in a car, its a disaster when it comes to parking. This business even has a sign saying ask about a parking pass and they are not responsible if your car is towed. This alone makes this place already super unattractive. I fought my instincts and gave this place a try, but honestly, felt like I wasted $12. They have a digital kiosk where you can order your drinks and I chose a HK style milk tea (hot) with less sugar and also a jasmine milk tea with boba. The ordering for the jasmine tea was weird because it has an option to choose $1 extra for boba but if you scroll a little further down, you can get boba, no extra charge. I thought that was a bit sneaky, which I didn't appreciate. I waited about 15 min and then my order was ready. The HK style milk tea was supposed to be in a glass container but I only saw the sign after I ordered that they didnt have glass containers. That really sucked. The other issue is that when my HK style milk tea (hot) was ready, it was barely warm, which also was disappointing as it was a bit cool outside and I wanted something hot to warm me up. The HK milk tea also wasn't that great either, nothing special. I've had HK milk teas for about $2 elsewhere and they were great, but this was overpriced and lukewarm. I wont be ordering this again. The other drink seemed OK as I ordered it for someone else. I also thought this place was kind of dirty and could have been more clean. Not sure why the windows looked so dirty. I found the place kind of gross and it just didnt feel as clean as I like businesses to be. Overall, a pretty underwhelming experience. You get one chance to make a good impression especially when there are so many boba options available. I definitely wont be coming back here again.

I've been ordering from here almost once a week since I found this place in August 2025, and I…read moreusually stick to my go-to: caramel milk tea with extra sugar, no boba. This time, I noticed they had a pho + milk tea combo, so I ordered it through the app. When my food arrived, I got the pho but there was no broth, just dry noodles. I also ordered beef pho with meatballs, and there were only two tiny meatballs, no beef at all, and the noodles were soggy and overcooked (and not how it looked in the photo advertised). My fiancé took it back so they could fix it. When he got there, he called me so I could speak to the worker. She told me, "I can pour some juice in it, but since you added meatballs, you'd have to buy another $14 combo to get beef because you didn't add beef to your pho." That made no sense why would I order another pho just to get what I already paid for? I told her I did add beef and asked her to check my receipt. She immediately cut me off, said "not my problem," and walked away. I was honestly in shock. I wasn't rude or yelling I just wanted my order corrected. It's just pho, but the customer service made the situation so much worse. She refused a refund or to give me her manager's information. Eventually, she handed my fiancé the soup, but the lid wasn't on correctly, so as soon as he got outside, it spilled all in the bag. At that point, I just threw it away. I'm honestly sad because I loved this place it's such a cute spot to study if you're a student, and the decor is really nice. But after this experience, I probably won't be coming back. I ended up having to order actual pho on Uber Eats, so I spent about $51 out of pocket for a replacement... which is insane in this economy i tried to call to get a hold of a manager to speak about the incident but their business phone number is suspended and is no longer in service I've attached a screenshot of my receipt below with the date to show that I did, in fact, order beef.

No Teaism location should have under 4 Yelp stars for the sake of their menu offering and food…read morequality alone. Oh, I love the innovation and flavours at Teaism. My go-to: the cilantro scrambled eggs with tea-cured salmon. Where else can you order scrambled eggs with salmon in the DC area or maybe even the entire northeastern seaboard? I don't know but I've only ever been able to get my eggs with salmon here and at a DC gourmet family diner chain since learning of the deliciousness of salmon-with-breakfast in Valdez, Alaska. The Salty Oat cookies, at each of their 3 locations, are divine sustenance. You cannot just have 1 of any of the 3 flavors. You will likely need to take home a whole pack with you. And resent sharing them with the family. I love the hot chai with Indian spices, milk and ginger that I reviewed at their DuPont Circle location. I've tried pots of tea but nothing matches the Chai. I would also like to try the iced sweet matcha bubble tea. My other go-to: give me the salmon bento box, please! I hope they never take this off of the menu because it is deliciousness. The current menu says it comes with: yuzu dipping sauce, a broccoli and orange fennel vinaigrette, a potato medley, miso dipping sauce and rice. Over time, the sides that accompany it change. Like seasonally and with trends, you know. 5 meows. Oh, and I do love their French toast, as well. It's so brunchy here. This location is more spacious and closer to DC's national museums. #localtastebyjenny
