I got a boba milk tea as is-the ice ratio was perfect and the tea flavor is strong without being bitter. No moo milk for you? There is an option for non dairy milk for a slight up charge. It's a bit pricey for boba milk tea but the quality of the boba, sweetness level and efficient service made it worth every sip.

I've had xing fu tang before and they're well known for their brown sugar boba but I was feeling…read moresomething a little more refreshing today. I tried their jasmine tea with honey comb and added honey jelly, less sugar of course. The drink was still sweet, you can taste the sweetness but not overwhelming sweet. It has a nice tart flavor from the added lime. The honey jelly was such a good addition, I really enjoyed the soft jelly texture and it was mildly sweet. Near the bottom was honey comb pieces which I wasn't a big fan of, they just tasted waxy. I would get the drink again! Ambiance is casual with a few standing tables, no chairs. Service was quick and staff were friendly. Air condition was on - I'll say it was not cold. No restroom. I would come again to try their ube milk or strawberry milk, I heard they make their strawberry boba in house.

It's sweet…read moreand savory, smooth and nutty, and it enhances the floral note of their high quality king jasmine milk tea. And I just unlocked a secret hack: You can order the pistachio cloud (or any clouds!) separately, freeze it, and turn it into homemade pistachio ice cream. It tastes way better than store-bought pistachio ice cream (and cheaper!) This is my go-to HEYTEA location since it's close to my workplace. The staff are helpful and the drinks are usually ready within ten minutes even during lunch hours.

We stopped in last weekend for a "quick" drink order - which wasn't very quick. However, the people…read moreworking there need to be awarded because they were working on 45 drink orders at that time! And in our 20 minutes of waiting, the number did not drop. We got a Coconut Mango bloom and a Matcha Cloud - I do like the option of customizing ice and sugar levels - but I think there's no option to use a milk alternative for the milk based drinks. Both drinks were good - I personally preferred the coconut mango one. There's barely any space inside to wait - maybe that's why, online order and picking up is popular.

It was a chilly night in NYC so I got my Taro Ball Tea Latte with less sugar and less ice, it was perfect for me! Would definitely come again. It is a place that is very aesthetic and calming inside. It was pretty crowded in the place though!

Wanted to give this place a shot because I saw top Google reviews. Disappointed in the experience…read more Prices are higher than other spots including HeyTea. I was expecting a bigger drink for $10 but it's like the same size as ordering a milk tea at the bakeries. Guessing 12oz. You can customize sugar and ice levels. Cashier was kind and helpful. Place is open and clean. I thought they'd have kiosks to order but nope. I can't imagine waiting on a long line for this. Drinks were mediocre. The bubble volcano, essentially a brown sugar milk, didn't hit as it should. Lots of ice even though I picked less ice. Passion fruit green tea is good but not mind blowing. Also still sweet for "light sugar."

A quick Yelp search revealed Dragon Tea a few blocks away from me, so off I went. The store itself is pretty small, but there are a few seats available if you prefer to dine in. Additionally, the interior is clean, well-lit and inviting. Arrived during an off time, so my order was prepared pretty quickly. Ordered my usual go-to drink, Passion Fruit Jasmine Green Tea w/ boba. The juice and tea was very refreshing and definitely cooled me down (albeit briefly) from the relentless heat. And I enjoyed the boba and fresh passion fruit seeds as well. Given the boba was an added topping, I would have liked to have seen more boba added. However, they did add in some pieces of lychee which was a nice touch.

Very pleasantly surprised! Few spots indoors, so could be a workspace. Boba Bubble Milk Tea - good boba, marinated well so there was flavor and decent chew. Surprisingly not old boba. Milk tea was fair, no strong tea flavor but close flavor to many black milk tea. Sweetness adjustments were respected, but slightly on the sweeter side (e.g. 0 sugar would still have a light sweetness).

We tried the raspberry and lychee tart, and I really liked how the tartness helped balance out the sweetness. The lychee bits in there were sooo yum too. I could definitely taste both the lychee and the raspberry well. And THE CRUST!! That was amazing. We also tried the strawberry matcha latte, but unfortunately that was way too sweet for me. The strawberry also dominated the matcha so it tasted more like strawberry milk :( We came on a Friday evening, and it was really difficult to find a seat so we ended up standing around to eat everything. This place is so popular! I want to come back to try all the other desserts especially the cream puffs and pastries!

It's got some space to it with several chairs if you need to catch your breath for a second or just hang out with a friend. The staff were friendly and helpful in guiding us through the menu. There are rotating menu items, too. Would love to come back and try their regular boba milk tea to see where they stack, even though nowadays it's all about the teashops like HeyTea and Molly; this place is holding its own and hope it continues to stick around. It's also cutely decorated; lots of wood inside.

Overall, it was just okay -- not bad, but not something I'd go out of my way for again. The mango flavor was there but felt a bit artificial and bland, and the sago pearls were slightly uneven in texture. The presentation was nice and the drink looked appealing, but the overall taste didn't quite hit the mark compared to other mango-based drinks I've had elsewhere. The shop itself was clean and bright, and service was friendly and quick, so no complaints there. If you're nearby and craving something fruity, it's worth trying once, but for the price and taste, there are probably better mango drinks around.

Overall: F // 1 star…read more HeyTea, but worse, and available in Jersey City, was my old opinion. Their mango drinks just have a worse command in picking sourcing ripe and sweet mangoes of the right softness; there is more filling in their drink that makes it more like a meal and less like a drink; and the slush is noticeably more icy and unrefined. On top of this, I stopped going a few months ago because one of the staff members dropped a huge stack of cups onto the ground, and then proceeded to restack them as if these are perfectly clean to use for the next drink.
