    Such a cute little spot where my family and I felt welcomed. I love all the different options available as I'm sure there's a drink for everyone. I love the owner's inspiring attitude and drive at such a young age. What an amazing young lady. We will return!

    Cute place, lots of choices, nice concept. Self serve, many drink choices with so many topping options. Absolutely loved the many popping boba choices. The girl up front greeted us when we first came in, asked if we had been there before. She explained we could sample what we pleased, sample cups were stacked next to the topping bar. I really appreciate that they let you do this! I'd rate a 4.5 if possible, it was a little warm in there (it was a cooler day) but things do happen. My only thing was because it was self serve, I noticed that several things I wanted to try had sticky utensils or covers. They had a sign to help keep it clean but it may be hard for upkeep. Flavors were on point, popping yogurt boba & espresso jelly I'd recommend. I had the black sesame milk tea & was happy with the choice. I'd go back!

    New location, smaller, but still a super cool concept! Self-serve boba drinks with soooo many flavors of the drinks & boba/jelly that you ca mix & match on your own. Ordering is simple, got to cashier, pick your size, pay, then taste & decide what you want in your drink(s). Uber coconut & Vietnamese coffee were my fave. The mango jellies, coffee jellies, & brown sugar jellies were so good. Friendly service. No food served here bc of the size of the space, but there are great options for food within walking distance in the area!

    *** updated review*** New location , same owner. Now located on Abrams street in the same street as j.gilligans and that ramen shop and that burger places. This new place is so small and narrow that you gotta be careful not to bump into other people. I went during their soft opening and got a small boba. Same delicious flavors as before with the same friendly service. At this moment they don't have any food available for purchase but my hope is that it happens soon. They do have lots of snacks available and they also have cute keychains available for purchase. If you never been its basically "try it before you buy it". You can try the teas to see which one is your favorite or combine multiple flavors for an out of this world flavor. On the other side of the teas they have so many toppings you can choose from. Popping pearls, glass jelly, tapioca pearls, cookie crumbs etc. Make sure you stop by when you are in the area to try them out.

    MUST try the chicken and mars fries!!!!! Olivia is on top of it. So full of energy and willing to answer questions. She and her mom were also even willing to help me with a food item I was picky about because of a diet restriction. Very helpful and kind. I can't wait for location #2! I wanna try so many more things.

    The establishment can be overwhelming when you first walk in. You may get distracted by the many colorful items. Customers need to pay attention to instructions, additional fees, and prices listed throughout. If customers overlook this, they may leave disappointed. I had the pleasure of meeting 13 y/o Olivia and her family. Olivia was professional and informed me how everything worked before I started sampling items and preparing my final beverage. I loved each topping, tea, and milk tea. My final beverage included a variety of toppings with a mix of mango and Bulgarian rose lychee green tea. During an event, I enjoyed tasting the meteor bite chicken nuggets w/ rocket sauce, moon dust popcorn chicken, curry rice w/ carrots, and cosmic pork belly bites with pineapple. The food was hot, fresh, and high quality! I will return when I'm in the area. I wanted to order 2 Vietnamese coffees. I was informed it's best to reach out beforehand so the coffee can be prepared perfectly. Note: I highly recommend the moon dust popcorn chicken and each tea and milk tea. I couldn't stop sampling the wintermelon, Thai, honeydew, and strawberry milk teas.

    My friend and her niece raved about this spot and how it was owned by a young girl who was able to open her business with her savings. I was intrigued, especially by the theme and concept of the place. As my friend, her niece, and I walked in we were greeted by the young girl Olivia, who is the owner. She was at the cash register taking our orders and she was friendly. After I informed her it was my first time there she informed me about the process and once I finished getting my drink then I would go pay at the cash register. There are two doors before you get inside the place which helps since the day I was there it was too windy and cold. The interior was very busy with their theme decorations (space theme), and holiday decorations, and the seating had two large tables with two cushioned benches on each table. There are also tables and chairs for kiddos which is amazing since a lot of places aren't really kids friendly. This spot is kid-friendly and welcoming. They have mini sample cups for you to sample their drinks and toppings (please be mindful though, don't take advantage). I sampled 3 of their drinks and decided to go with a large cup of Honeydew Milk Tea with boba and pudding/custard. The honeydew milk tea was delicious and it wasn't too sweet, for me it was perfect so I didn't have to add tea to make it less sweet. They gave an option of making your drink less sweet with their unsweetened teas. Olivia thought of everything. You go girl. Their boba was soft, warm, fresh, and chewy which is how it's supposed to be not like other boba spots where their boba is rock solid. 5/5 Honeydew Milk Tea with boba and custard/pudding My friend and her niece loved their drinks. My friend mixed two of their drinks and it tasted pretty good. They have board games and they also sell small food bites. If you have not stopped by to experience this spot I highly recommend you give it a try. Happy Yelping and SYOY

    Amazeing, love the new location!!

    Great new flavors, amazing location! Extra parking around back. We got honey melon and dragon tea

    I came in here on it's opening debut in Downtown Arlington and overall it was a great experience. They really put a lot of work and passion to this new location and I really like the space aesthetic that they wanted to put out. When you enter, on one side you can see a wall full of memorabilia, merchandise, and a big TV that lays out their menu or events. I think so of them are for sale. And on the opposite side you get signed autographs of astronauts that came into Rocket Belly previously, which is really cool to see! When you order, you have the option of choosing between a regular size or large sized drink and at the end of the shop they have a large variety of drinks lined up on their own machines and opposite of that is a variety of boba and other toppings to choose from The service here was great and friendly, and the owner who was out on the register at the time was very generous to everyone. I had gotten myself the Aliens blood with popping boba and it was really good although a bit too sugary for me. So if you're ever in town and looking for a good boba shop, this is good recommendation to look at.

    Had to have my boba fix and we stumbled upon this place literally just driving around for a late night. This place is open late and so we thought why not. It's kind of hole in the wall vibes. The concept of getting boba is pretty interesting and I don't hate it. Kind of brilliant. So, the set-up is like sample and make your own boba drink. There's a variety of options, and at the end choose your toppings. Kind of like the self serve yogurt. So service is self-serve and you pay up Front. Looks like this place can handle small and large groups but it's a take home type of thing and not really a stay there and enjoy although there are chairs and tables for it if you decide to. Try this place out! Till then, let's sip!

    Came here once before for a yelp event and had to check it out again. Again it didn't disappoint. Being able to try numerous things and build your own boba is a niche for sure and enjoyable. So many flavors you could make with the various flavors offered. Still hard to believe a 13 Year old is the owner/ mastermind behind it. They will be moving locations soon too

    Rocketbelly came at the recommendation of our friends after eating pho at a nearby restaurant. We were told that the owner used to be a child actress, who opened a bubble tea shop after her acting days. When we arrived, we were greeted by a strong smell of sugar, and we were a bit overwhelmed by all the decorations. But after speaking to Olivia, the owner, we were that we could have as many samples as we wanted of all the milk and fruit teas, as well as the toppings available. And so we checked out the toppings and tea bars, trying out the ones we were interested in. We were impressed by the strong tea flavors in each sample, and we appreciated the ability to add a tea base to dilute our custom drinks if we found the teas to be too sweet. Personally, I went for the Ube Milk Tea whereas P2 opted for the Jasmine Tea. Again, both were delicious as we were able to craft our own boba cocktails to our liking. It was easy to pay at the counter as we were rung up based on cup size. There was a seating area inside perfect for hanging out, though we chose to take away. If we're ever in the area again, we'd love to stop by again to try some of their other tea combinations!

    I saw a video on TikTok about Rocketbelly and decided I needed to check it out on my next visit to DFW. This past weekend, I flew from Honolulu to DFW for the weekend, mostly to get some things from IKEA. Rocketbelly was close enough to IKEA that I could convince my brother to make a stop. He didn't need much encouragement, he likes bubble drinks too. The shop itself is on the backside of a random building, so you can't see it from the street. The parking lot was relatively empty. We walked in an there was one other customer. He was talking to a girl standing behind the register and I kind of assumed it was a family operation and the girl was working for her parents. After reading some reviews, I know now that she is basically th owner. Amazing. She was so nice and gave us a "tour" of the store. SO well-spoken! The drinks are very sweet, so I appreciated the little "dilution station" that had jugs of unsweetened green and black tea. The only problem is that I don't like my drinks sweet, so they were very diluted. Maybe they could change their recipes to be more in the middle in terms of sweetness and then have a sweetener station where you could add simple syrup. But the whole "build your own" concept here is great! The topping bar was extensive. I liked the boba and the mango jellies. There were lots of popping boba choices and even some things I had never seen before. Next time, I'll try some food. I would definitely come back to give this place my business.

    Bethany Cafe noooo you guys changed the fries! I would come here all the time for the thick crispy…read morefries but now they're thin...change them back please!! Other than this new concern, I personally find this place a "comfort spot". Not high quality Asian food but the best "B grade" Asian food there is in Arlington. I enjoy the portions, the taste but most importantly, their drinks!! I especially love ordering their Oreo Shake (even better than other boba tea places) and their Strawberry Milk Tea. Service is always spectacular. They are fast and friendly! I've also ordered online before and the food is always hot and ready by the time I arrive there. If you have kids, they will enjoy the arcade connected to the restaurant. Seriously though...the change in fries makes me sad. If I come back, it will be for the drinks.

    I always get the orange chicken fried rice here and it has never disappointed me. The portion sizes…read moreare huge here and each combo is enough for two meals. Each combo comes with a free tea (black/green/milk). The service here is quick and straight to the point. I like this place because it is quick and a great value for decent food. I wouldn't say this is the best food I've ever had but I enjoy it as it brings me back to my college days when they used to have a location near UT Dallas years ago. I deducted a star as the restaurant itself had a chemical smell in the dining area, otherwise I recommend getting it to go and enjoying it at home. Parking here should be fairly easy, there is a parking lot in front of it but be careful not to park in front of the business in front of it. This is located down the street from UT Arlington.

    This place is located in Ben Thanh plaza. We came thinking there was only dessert but we saw they…read morehad a small food menu and decided to give it a try. We ordered the pho ga (chicken pho) and ga len mam (chicken platter). - I'm particular when it comes to pho ga, and this one hit the spot. The broth was clean and flavorful. It had a lot of meat and came with wide noodles, which I love. I wish it came with the eggs also, but that's just me. The sauce to dip wasn't my favorite with the pho, but it's because I prefer the ginger fish sauce. - initially I was surprised that the ga len mam was $70, since the picture didn't show a whole chicken. We were very surprised when we saw it come out. Everything was flavorful and the eggs were my favorite. There's sticky rice in the middle that you can eat with the different styled chicken. Overall, we had leftovers for 5 people. Everything was delicious and under $100.

    This place has just opened up! They serve sticky rice, Singaporean style tofu, and beverages in all…read moredifferent type of variations. They have five different flavors of sticky rice, and the option to get the rainbow style which has all the flavors. They offer over ten different flavors of Singaporean style tofu and beverages! They have a special XO milk tea that comes with a cute jelly bear on top. I tried their: - Rainbow sticky rice - Singaporean Tofu Thai Durian flavor - Egg Coffee - Salted Coffee - Hot Pandan Soymilk - Strawberry Matcha Latte - Thai Green Tea - Fried Tofu Regular & Lemongrass - Hot Ginger Tofu Everything was super delicious! My favorite has to be the sticky rice and hot ginger tofu, it was cooked to perfection. And what every Asian loves to hear "it wasn't too sweet!" My friend really liked their Singaporean style tofu and the hot pandan soy milk! You can tell they use top of the line equipment for their fried tofu because of the density of the tofu. The service was very friendly, they recommended great items and walked us through how each item was prepared. The place is very cute! I can't wait to come back and try the other dishes!
