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.

I got for myself the jasmine mango coconut but at 100% sugar, I found the drink to be a little too bland.

Last time we went they got the Japanese dumplings which looked great, the corn dog looking sausage on a stick which had an incredible amount of cheese, I had the yam fries which were absolutely delicious, and for drinks we had a milk tea with J & T, and a coffee. I'd give the experience 5 stars but the service was a little slow for a Sunday with no one else there. My mom's coffee drink took forever, but she was very happy with it. The drinks are a nice size too. The picture shows the size of the drink compared to a hand. Lately some places have been sizing down to keep the price the same but this place hasn't done that as far as I can tell. I would definitely eat here again.

So many different flavors and many toppings to add. Their yogurt flavors sets it apart from other yogurt drinks in other shops. Every drink has a hint of the owners creativity and makes it that more delicious. Such a great shop to go visit. The cranes will get you hooked with cute little prizes. The workers there are very kind and helpful. I remember during Covid the owners would deliver their own bubble tea to their customers home. Despite the pandemic, their dedication and love for their craft never wavered or changed. If you haven't tried this spot, go now and grab a drink!

(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!

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!
