    Super excited about more boba spots opening up in Midtown! R&B Tea is a local chain serving all the usual boba favorites, but what really stood out to me was their small selection of Vietnamese coffee drinks. I tried the sea salt Vietnamese coffee and it was so good--strong, smooth, and perfectly balanced. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their egg coffee next. The shop itself is really nice inside, the decor is clean and modern, and the staff were all friendly and welcoming. Bonus points for plenty of parking too, which is always a win in this area. If you're craving boba, matcha, or Vietnamese coffee, definitely check them out!

    We finally decided to try R&B Tea since it is closer to our apartment. The vibe from the staff was very off putting and when we asked questions because it was our first time it felt like we were bothering them. There was a total of 8 customers 4 of which was my family and the drinks took forever to be served. My drink did not taste good and I ended up throwing it away.

    It's good! Same quality as other locations. The employee was very nice. Greeted me when I entered. The inside is very clean and modern. Great place to meet up with people. My drink was great. No complaints.

    Solid newer boba spot in the area. Super clean interior and it was a one woman job as far as staffing goes. Their menu is a bit large and is reminiscent of Feng Cha. I got their taro storm drink with no sugar and it was still a bit too sweet with the toppings. Overall flavor was good and it'll be interesting to try out their more traditional drinks, but seems like you will need to dial down the sweetness and ice for maximum effect.

    Tried the avocado smoothie at R&B Tea House Midtown - super creamy, smooth, and not too sweet. Will definitely order again!

    Tried the avocado smoothie at R&B Tea House Midtown - super creamy, smooth, and not too sweet. You can really taste the fresh avocado. Refreshing and satisfying. Will definitely order again!

    THIS IS THE BEST CORTADO I'VE EVER HAD…read more Day 6 has been on my list for quite some. Upon arrival, I was met with excellent music and a warm greeting. Once I reached the counter, the gentleman helped me with selecting a coffee and even answered a few clarifying questions I had about ingredients. I got 2 cortados (I drank the first one so fast that I needed another one), a vanilla latte (sweet but balanced), and two croissants (almond and chocolate). My friends got a cheesecake latte (cupcake dominant and didn't have enough cookie butter flavoring), a white mocha hot chocolate (pretty good), and a blueberry muffin (amazingly soft, flavorful, and balanced). All together, I'll be coming back much more often!!!

    I really wanted to give this place 5 out of 5 stars, but here's my honest experience…read more The service was excellent, everyone was friendly and welcoming, so that's an easy 5/5. I also tried one of their muffins, and it was absolutely delicious. Another 5/5! The only thing that disappointed me was the coffee. I asked the barista for a recommendation and specifically mentioned that I wanted a coffee that wasn't too sweet. She recommended a drink, and I trusted her suggestion. Unfortunately, when I tried it, it was much sweeter than I was expecting. I understand recommendations are subjective, so I don't blame anyone,it just wasn't what I was looking for. Because of that, I'd give the coffee 1/5. It simply wasn't to my taste. Overall, the great service and delicious muffin were definite highlights, but the coffee experience brought my overall rating down to 3/5.

A couple of friends and I wandered in early on a Sunday for breakfast/brunch. I ordered the scrambled‑egg and turkey‑bacon tacos with a flat white, one friend had the chilaquiles (he thought they could've used a bit more flavor and some avocado), and my other friend went for the French toast with an iced coffee. We had a great conversation over a delicious meal and solid coffee, and the steady stream of adorable dogs around us was the perfect bonus. I'd read some reviews complaining about the service, but ours was totally fine--especially for an early Sunday morning. It probably helps to be patient if they're short‑staffed, but we had no issues at all.

The first day, I was overwhelmed with all…read morethe pastries they offered and spent more than I typically would at a coffee shop, but I was not mad. The avocado toast was good, they used fresh avocado. The toast was very crispy because of the type of bread but I enjoyed it. They also have yummy fresh pressed juice. I wish I would have stopped by for dinner, but did not get a chance. Next time I am in the area I will.

It's on the east side of 59 freeway and only a few blocks from the famous Huynh Vietnamese restaurant. We strolled over on a Sunday morning around 9 am and tried a few items: - Make Ya Halo: expensive but really good. You gotta love oat milk if you wanna like this drink. It's served in a foldable paper cup, so that's kinda weird, but also makes me feel like I'm saving the earth by purchasing this $9 drink. - pho beef kolache: one of a kind and you gotta try it. I found it pleasantly surprising. It was served hot and a fair size that won't completely fill you up but it ain't no sample size either. I loved it. - Thai banana pudding: this was the highlight. I'm not sure if it's a seasonal item, but if they have it, you gotta get it. It was delicious and the perfect amount of sweetness. Service was extra pleasant, and though the indoor seating is limited, the outdoor seating is plentiful. Ambiance is hip and cool as one would expect from an EaDo shop. Enjoy!
