The young lady who took my order was friendly, helpful, and provided excellent customer service. What puzzled me was how quickly my food came out. By the time I put my wallet away and walked over to find a seat, my order was already ready. I initially assumed the cook had been listening as I ordered and that the freshly grilled chicken had just come off the grill, been tossed in the sauce and boxed up. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. I got home about five minutes later, and the chicken was only barely warm. It tasted like it had been cooked an hour earlier and then tossed with sauce before being served to me. The rice was also very dry and clumpy instead of light and fluffy. Had the chicken been hot and the rice not clumpy , my experience would have been much better. While the customer service was excellent, the quality of the food wasn't a five star for me. I'm not sure I'll be returning.

The lady taking my order was not friendly and seemed irritated when I asked for recommendations. The restaurant was very clean which was a plus. I got the sweet potato dog with mozzarella.

Service was awesome and pretty efficient. The employee let me sample their different chicken options so I could taste the difference, since the menu didn't really explain much when I looked ahead of time. The K'Pop Chicken (cute pun) is a popcorn chicken version of Korean fried chicken with a sticky glaze that has a bit of a kick to it, while the Soy Glazed Chicken is (what I think is) their grilled option, which tastes exactly as it sounds. I definitely recommend the K'Pop chicken, but both were tasty. Ingredient options are fun but REALLY fusion-y... obviously, don't come here expecting any type of authentic experience. But I did love that the options for the base include japchae, since I don't have the opportunity to order this on this side of town. They have a fair drinks selection but I wish they could add a Korean-inspired option like sikhye if they really want to keep the theme cohesive. I don't foresee myself coming often since it's on the pricier side, but due to the convenience and variety, I will definitely be back again for future work lunches. - Ambiance: 4/5 - Food: 4/5 - Service: 5/5

We were in the mood for soup, so we searched for pho and Yelp led us here…read more First impression: it was dinner time and only one small family was dining. We were told to pick our own seats. The table we chose was clean, but the seats and floor weren't. The host kindly cleaned it up for us. We sat for quite a while before asking a staff member for water. We also requested lemons, but they never came, so we let it go. We ordered large bowls of chicken pho, and that was definitely the highlight. The portions were generous and packed with flavor, with a great balance of chicken and noodles. Midway through the meal, we ordered lemonade. The host didn't seem too happy about it and went to the back for a while. It seemed like it might be made from powder since she grabbed ice from the front machine. Then we found out it was $5, which was surprising. Service-wise, it felt a bit off at times, but you could tell they were trying. We did share a few laughs with the male waiter, which helped the experience. At checkout, we got a percentage off for Mr. Pho's 7th anniversary at this particular location, which was a nice touch.

I found myself on the opposite of the city for business and wanted to explore out some places…read morebefore I head back home. One place that was close by and a suggestion, K Tea Boba. A very interesting concept to have both bánh mì, Korean wings and boba. I was drawn to visit and noticed it is located in a bit of a smaller business center across the park. A very casual spot with a fair amount of seating. One thing that was convenient is having a kiosk for card transaction which not often businesses have. As a first visit I was a bit more selective to try a mix of items. I did purchase two drinks: Vietnamese coffee and frozen tiramisu, 12 piece korean wings with fries, and a combination bánh mì. Usually I would speak on the drinks but did not really get to try it when I got home. But for the food, I did try. The Korean wings I enjoyed. If you are familiar with the red pepper paste gochujang, this was the sauce. It is a sweet spicy flavor and was also garnished with sesame seeds. You can choose with mild or spicy but I did mild. Very flavorful and a bit of a sticky sauce so napkins are good to have around. The combination bánh mì to me seemed much smaller than I usually am accustomed to. But what is nice is the filling. The contents are more generous portions. This will be a Vietnamese ham and pork sandwich, picked carrots, radish, pate, Vietnamese mayo, and jalapeno. I enjoyed it and having the sandwich is a good choice especially when I included an egg too. Overall, what I can say for K Tea Boba, this would be in my dark horse list of places I have tried. It is very discreet, you could potentially pass it up, but does have a lot to prove. I was a bit taken back because of the previous pictures people have posted of the business last year but not a problem. The owners are nice too. But very last point, I have had a fair share of bánh mì growing up and it is a bit challenging when I am not too far from "Chinatown/Little Saigon" Bellaire. The Vietnamese baguette seemed more dense and not as crispy. I am used to it being more light and airy with that nice crunch crispy outside. Just a small observation but not a deal breaker. On my end, I will heavily consider to dine in more often to fully appreciate everything while it is fresh versus taking it home for convenience but may not be as good after the drive home. *additional add on to the review* (3/20/25) This morning i did try the Vietnamese coffee on my way to work. Just like bánh mì, for me I have also had different varieties of how it is made. K Tea is a nice flavor, not too strong but I am tasting more of a hazelnut after taste. A bit more milky maybe to balance out the bold coffee flavor. It is good but not what I am accustomed to, where it is more potent and more darker in color.
