If I'm going to be paying $7+ for milk tea drinks, it better be very good tea -- none of that…read moresugary fake stuff! And Miss Boba really delivers. On our most recent visit, the taro green tea latte at 50% sugar was the perfect post-lunch treat. The taro gets mixed throughout more in this drink vs the taro milk tea I tried previously. I like both! Mango yogurt (regular sweetness) had a fresh ripeness that wasn't too sweet and had a balanced tartness. Husband says all they need is purple rice (iykyk)

Still DA BEST Brown Sugar boba, just the perfect texture of chewiness! I've tried most of the…read moredrinks on the menu, and my favorites are Brown Sugar Milk Brulee, Strawberry Crema and the Yogurt series. I've tried several seasonal items, and most are just okay. Recently I tried a holiday drink Crema Thai Tea Cookie Latte with brown sugar - it's 4 out of 5 stars for me. The cookie butter is stronger than the Thai tea taste, an interesting combo. And as always, brown sugar boba is the best. However, the drink itself cost $10.95, and with the addition of brown.sugar boba, I ended up paying $12. So MissBoba is definitely an occasional treat for my wallet. Service is always great, they always ask for sweetness level adjustment and tell you to mix the drinks well. Inside isn't too big, and gets quite crowded when it's busy, especially when the line is out the door. Also, love that they host pop-ups of donuts and other baked goods throughout the year. Follow them on IG!

When I walk in here, I feel like I'm inside a warehouse or large parking garage, solely because of the large door near the entrance to this place. Inside, it's blasting K-pop music, and has some tables to sit at. There's also some arcade machines and a photo booth. You order your drinks up at the counter using their kiosks, and they have a bunch of uniquely named drinks like their other location in Cap Hill, with some that are simply just strawberry matcha and mango matcha drinks, though this does keep in line with what a ton of people are crazily lining up for in this day and age (including myself). Since I simply got my drink and sat with my friend, I don't have anything to mention about service here. I got their No. 5 Elixir, which is a mixture of charcoal mango lemonade and a lot of mango bits. First and foremost, I'm happy that it didn't stain my teeth as I drank it, haha. But more importantly, it's sweet and tangy and was very refreshing even though weather was somewhat gloomy when I went. This is a very chill place to hang out at, and I can see myself coming here for a quick designer drink/blend. As of this writing, I still haven't tried all their stuff yet!

Happy to see Drip Tea opening in Kent. The boba and clothing concept is cool…read more What I liked: + Friendly service. I asked for some recommendations for milk tea, and the girl who works there gave me some recommendations. +Spacious and comfortable space - I visited on a weekday and I was the only customer. I can see it being busy with people chatting and playing boardgames on the weekend. What needs improvement: Boba! I almost lowered by rating because the boba did not have a good texture. This time I tried Hojicha Milk Tea, which had a powdery texture and was alright. But I've had other drinks like Post Melona and enjoyed it better. I would definitely go for a fruity tea or blended drink

Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #105…read more I first visited a Tra Viet location in Vegas, not expecting it to be a small chain originating in Washington! On the drive up back from Portland recently, we decided to stop by the original location (and only stand-alone store left in Washington) in Renton, down near the Boeing factory. This boba shop is known for serving drinks in essentially soda cans, complete with pop top. It's a unique concept, but it also means that value is less than competitors since the drink size is much smaller. Still, the quality is pretty high, at least enough to get us to visit based on what we ordered at the Las Vegas location. We ordered two drinks on our visit: Classic Milk Tea w/ Boba ($7.25) - No adjustments are allowed in this drink. The drink has a surprisingly strong malty flavor that pairs with the creamer nicely, delivering a thick and enjoyable experience. I believe the drink is premixed, which is why sweetness adjustments aren't allowed. Unfortunately it is too sweet for my tastes, especially since the boba soak adds even more sugar to the mixture. The ice levels, even at 100%, isn't too much. They use crushed ice that's easier to melt. The boba is of the mini variety, soaked well in syrup. They are actually cooked perfectly for this particular variety - great consistent chew and bounce on each tiny little pearl. I normally prefer full sized boba, but this one is very nice. I think their recipe can only use the mini boba - with the normal size boba at this texture, I would probably call it too firm, but it's perfect for the mini. Milk Tea Rating: 4/5 Boba Rating: 5/5 Jasmine Milk Tea, Less Sweet w/ Boba ($7.25) - This milk tea is very perfume-like with plenty of jasmine flower flavor. With the less sweet option, it's around 50% sweet compared to other shops, which matches up with my tastes. Again, it has good body but no dairy flavor. Overall a solid drink. We actually drank this about 2 hours after the Classic Milk Tea and somehow the boba was exactly the same texture. Usually the pearls start hardening up, but this was still perfect! Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 5/5 Usually places like this which focus on gimmicks don't exactly serve the best drinks. Tra Viet seems to be an exception. I'd be happy to return any time I'm down in Renton! Bathrooms - I didn't see any in store, but I also didn't ask the bobarista for availability.

After reading everyone else's comments, I suppose mine is a "to each their own" situation…read more I've never had an issue here, whether that's my drink order or the service. Maybe I've just been lucky? I've been a customer here for years, though, so take that into consideration as well. At times I've come in and there was only one or two workers but they're fast. The woman who's consistently working (perhaps the owner or manager) is always so nice to us. She gets our orders right. And even the times we want to try something new and flub our order, she'll do her best to correct it. I've stood in long lines here and got in and out fast. There is seating inside if you'd like to dine in. The decor inside is cute, too, makes for decent IG pics. My order always tastes good. Give it a try! I try to support Kent Station businesses as well, as much as I can. It's been a bummer to see the management of that shopping center allow for so many businesses to close. I remember a time when they were all occupied. Sad to see.

I was skeptical about this boba place because the reviews but I went ahead and tried it. The…read morereviews are basically true..... I saw complaints saying that the drinks were too sweet, however, I'm on the more sweet side for preference, so I thought I would like it. I got the brown sugar latte and it was somewhat good in the beginning, but the drink was definitely really sweet, and even too sweet for me. The boba felt old too because it was really soft. The second drink we tried was the matcha latte. This drink tasted like something we could make at home. The service was okay. The worker was nice but it seemed like they didn't want to be there. We were greeted with hospitality as well. The server was more like minding their business. Also, they served my drink with the brown sugar sauce partially on my cup, which made my hands sticky. I felt like my hands were sticky throughout the night, no matter how many times I cleaned it. The best quality of this boba shop is their ambiance. Very nicely decorated with good lighting. The environment was neat and gave a nice vibey feeling. This would be a chill place to hangout with your friends to get a drink. However, the quality of the drink and service isn't good enough to get me back here.

They make their own syrup using cane sugar and use only fresh fruit for their smoothies. I think…read morethat's quite rare of a claim. I can confidently confirm the fresh fruit because my grape smoothie started oxidizing after just 10 minutes! I really enjoyed the green grape jasmine smoothie. The tea was fragrant yet light, and the fruit added just enough natural sweetness that 0% added sweetness was perfect. That said, if you choose something like strawberries, I wouldn't recommend 0% sweetness. The service was friendly, and the store was spacious and clean. I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu!

There's many tables in the back here, and it feels very casual and perfect for some nightly hangouts with friends or, in this case, a card game afternoon with a friend. I ordered through a kiosk near the front counter, while my friend ordered up at the counter itself. Server there was helpful with some of the modifications he wanted on his drink. I got their Oreo milk tea with 50% sweetness and ice levels. Nothing too special here, just tons of crushed Oreo bits and your regular oolong tea base, perfect for keeping me full the rest of the day. 50% sweetness was enough; any more and the drink would have been too much. There's also a backdrop where you can take photos of or with your drinks if you'd like. Place was decent in terms of cleanliness; some tables were a little dirty but we still had a good time here.

Since it was our first time there, we weren't familiar with the ordering process or menu. I didn't want to hold up the line trying to decide what to order, so I asked if we could sit down first and look over the menu. She cleaned off a table for us, but then told me I needed to hurry up and order because she didn't want other people getting upset about how long it would take me to decide. I didn't respond and simply waited until we were ready to order, which only took about four minutes. What confused and upset me was that shortly after, a white man came in and she told him he could sit down, take his time, and order whenever he was ready because "it's not busy." The difference in treatment was very noticeable and honestly made me uncomfortable as an African-American woman. Maybe this was a misunderstanding, but the interaction did not sit right with me. I believe every customer should be treated with the same patience and respect, especially first-time customers who are simply trying to understand how the restaurant works. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and does better moving forward.
