YAY! A new boba place! This review is being written on the grand opening day of this establishment,…read moreApril 21, 2023, and there is definitely some things that I liked and did not like here. If I'm not mistaken, this is, at the time of writing this review, the only brick-and-mortar boba shop in the tri-cities area aside from Pearl Tea in the mall, so most will like this regardless of my review just simply because it's something rare here. My review is a also little extra harsh because I grew up in a very Asian community in Southern California where there is a boba place on every corner and the quality of tea and boba is on a level you can only really find in big cities (Seattle, Portland, San Fran, LA, etc.). That said, here's my overview that I still think you'll find helpful: SERVICE On opening day, the staff were eager, friendly and helpful to anyone that had questions. There were also about 10 people in front of me in line and about another 15 that had already placed their orders that were waiting inside. This said, the staff worked incredibly fast and clearly did their best to get orders fulfilled as quickly as possible. This is promising on a day that they were incredibly crowded. Seeing that they were friendly when it is so easy to get overwhelmed by an opening weekend crowd was especially promising and shows good customer service. Kudos here! DRINKS Straight to the point, it's a hit or miss depending on what you get. I ordered a Pacific Sunrise and it basically tasted and looked like a pretty passion fruit lemonade with peach poppers thrown in it. Their brown sugar milk tea was REALLY good and it is probably the best you're going to find here in the region. The one thing I did NOT like was how much ice they put in their drinks. My iced drinks had 2/3 of the cup full of just ice. Even their blended drinks, like the honeydew milk tea (blended) that I ordered was really thick (lots of ice) and was barely drinkable even when left to melt for a while. I knocked off a star here because of this. The size of the cup is really deceiving, especially when you consider most of it is full of ice... I also knocked off half a star for the boba here and the inconsistency of how good or bad your experience here can be depending on what drink you order. While that is how it is at most food or drink places, I really loved the brown sugar milk tea but would definitely passed on this place just based on the blended honeydew milk tea. The tapioca pearls were also a little on the hard side rather than soft and chewy. This means that they can definitely cook the pearls a little longer (I know, because I used to own a boba shop myself in Oregon). AMBIANCE While the ambiance definitely has promise, it looked a little bare on decoration. I get that it's brand new and just opened, but I hope that they get some local artists involved and maybe do some graffiti art on their wall/bathroom hallway to really enhance the vibe of this place. They already have a cool photo wall but there is still so much potential in this area. I knocked off another half star for parking and extra cars fees. Parking here can be VERY limiting here as it is a small shared parking lot with other neighboring businesses and a trailer park. In addition, I saw a sign by the point of sales system at the counter that says they will charge extra for card payments, so keep this in mind. I intend on coming back to try other drinks and to see if their menu and prices change over time as the menu on opening day at places tend to be a more limited. I'll post an update to this review if I think it's a worthy-enough change but overall, I'm glad this town has another boba shop with the closure of the two Teahaus locations and despite it not being the greatest drinks or boba, it's a place you should still give a try!

The iced coffee was the only thing I'm confident will not make me sick to first, and it was mostly sugar with nowhere near the regular coffee, ratios are all wrong. Don't waste your time or money, the service isn't even good. The teenage boy was pre concerned with NCAA Women's gymnastics than taking care of the customer, and I was the only one there. Two fat thumbs down

My eldest likes the noodle soup, I like their special fried rice with fresh cilantro in the mix, hubby gets a different order each time.

They have so many Asian goodies (Buldak noodles, ramune, candies) and knickknacks (keychains, Jibbitz, Bricks, dinosaur toys). The store is very organized and cute. Everything is priced very reasonably. My friends and I had to hold ourselves back from going overboard. The person working the store was patient with us as we ordered. The drink was ok. Overly sweet, but with syrups it is hard to adjust the sweetness. The boba consistency was surprisingly good. It was soft and chewy. Check this place out if you're in the area. You won't regret it.
