They serve drinks and street food. Gong Cha also shares the same location/ counter space with Poki DC so you can get your poke + boba fix. To order, there's a self-order kiosk. They're fairly fast in making your orders. I LOVE that they were accommodating and used soy milk as dairy alternatives when I left a note in my order since there wasn't an option button to change dairy. Green Thai tea was so delicious and had a nice balance of sweetness. Strawberry smoothie with creme brûlée was also good, but tasted a little watered down (but maybe it's because it was soy milk?). Chicken karaage was crispy and tasty. There's not a lot of boba places around DC so def recommend this place!

The handmade dumplings are the best. The bubble teas, boba, milk teas, juices, slushies, and smoothies are amazeballs. Drinks are customizable. The spicy beef noodle soup is crazy good and enough for two or leftovers. It's seriously hearty and filling. Everything is fresh and packed with flavor. Hands down one of my favorite places to grab lunch or dinner when I'm in DC.

This place has it all!…read more Coming inside there's a counter where you can order drinks and food to go but if you plan to dine in, you just sit down at any available table and order from the QR code. The restaurant I very clean and the decorations are really pretty. We ordered soup dumplings and noodles and our food was ready really fast. I ordered the veg spicy and sour noodles and they come with an egg and crispy pieces of corn and a lot of boi hot which I love. The flavor was spicy with a hint of lime for the sour flavor. My husband ordered the beef noodle soup and he said it tasted amazing. Our chicken soup dumplings were full of flavor and a lot of broth inside. This place is really similar to Yu noodles which is one of my favorite places so if I'm ever in the area again I would go to this place for soup dumplings. Our server was really sweet as well.

Came back to Taichi after a day of shopping in Georgetown and was so pleased by everything! Great…read moreservice, the quality of the food was delicious, the portions were big, and the price points made sense. Walked away only spending $30 for a great and filling casual meal! I had the hawiann poke bowl which was perfect!! Really filling and flavorful and delicious. The salmon and tuna were both super fresh. W friend and I also shared the dumpling which were banging! We both also got Taro boba tea. The ice melted a little too quickly which watered the drink down but enjoyable nonetheless. Theres also a bar with karoke downstairs so you get the best of both worlds here. I will absolutely be coming back anytime im in the area!

This review is solely for the poke bowls, but I thought they were subpar. Service and ambiance were…read morejust okay as well. The 1 meat topping poke bowl goes for $15.5, and ~$19.5 for 2. The amount of salmon I got was minimal and not justified by the price IMO. It also wasn't very tasty. There were many unlimited toppings (non-meat) to choose from, but it felt more like a salad than a poke bowl. I wouldn't come back for the bowls.

This location is extra special to me because it was the very first one I ever visited through Yelp! Anywho, the customer service was a 10/10, as always! The inside and outside were still super clean, and I absolutely love the outdoor seating area. I ordered the Watermelon Matcha Lemonade, and they've been going crazy with all the new matcha flavors they've been adding! I'm not even mad about it. I'm just sad I didn't get a large because I definitely could've used more! Next time, I'm getting the large AND adding a frozen matcha to my order. See you soon!

I'm also iffy about bread - I hate bread that feels like I'm biting into cement. This bread was really good and easy to chew on. The location is small - so thing about ordering to-go. The place is very cute inside. The service was great, can't complain.

Solid boba place in a cute little shop. I'm used to the Bay Area, where there's a boba place on…read moreevery corner, but it's hard to find a good spot in DC. I've been here a few times, and I've enjoyed it!! The boba pearls are a really nice texture, and add a nice sweetness to the drink!! I'm usually picky with boba, so I am impressed! I've gotten their Jasmine Milk Tea and Thai Tea, both which are good but I recommend getting it 75% sweetness, especially if you're getting boba with the drinks. The banh mi is delicious and you get a good amount for the price. I got the grilled pork banh mi with everything (including pâté!) and it was really well balanced and tasty. I definitely recommend this place if you're in the neighborhood!

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

This seems to be a family-owned shop with a good variety of breakfast and lunch sandwiches (which can also be ordered during breakfast hours). Since it was early, I went for the Downtown Breakfast and chose bacon (instead of sausage) on sourdough. Everything is freshly made and they use real eggs (made your way) and fresh bacon. While the sandwich was good, I'm giving Bread Me Cafe 3 stars because the coffee was super weak and they use really cheap lids, so I ended up spilling hot coffee on myself and so did two other people with me. Plastic cutlery was also super flimsy and we had forks break while trying to cut breakfast items.
