I finally stopped by Maki House in Akron, Ohio for lunch on a Wednesday in August 2026. There…read moreweren't a lot of customers dining in but, like me, there were a lot of people waiting for their to-go orders. I saw at least 6 staff as well, so they definitely weren't understaffed. The interior is sparse and I saw some dirty tables while I waited. I liked the look of some of the boba teas I saw other customers get, but I was too cheap to buy one for myself. I was (and always am) craving a poke bowl so I ordered a grilled chicken poke bowl with edamame, sweet potatoes, seaweed salad, kimchi, and ginger dressing and waited about 15 loooooong minutes for it to be ready. Imho, I think my chicken poke bowl was overpriced at $14 even though I chose the cheapest protein options and stuck to only 4 add-ons as I didn't want to pay another $0.75 for each additional topping. I think the rest of the menu is also overpriced as well. I did like my bowl in the end though and found it all pretty tasty. I have has better poke bowl experiences before and know of quite a few other places that are much more generous. But I had a craving and was in the area. I just wish I could have gotten tuna or salmon as my protein without having to pay 2 or 3 more dollars on top of it. And why did it take so long to make?? I dunno, I think I'm just being impatient because I was running late to work lol.

Stopped into Maki House in Cuyahoga Falls today and ordered some rolls and dumplings. The space is…read morespotless and modern. It felt like it was a Japanese Chipotle. It has an open kitchen where you can watch the food being prepared. The menu is a nice size, offering sushi rolls, specialty rolls, ramen, teriyaki bowls, boba teas and a selection of appetizers. I tried a spicy roll and a tempura shrimp roll, while my friend ordered the gyoza dumplings. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. The staff was friendly, and I was greeted by Jason, the owner, a nice personal touch. This location is fairly new, right on Portage Trail in Cuyahoga Falls. Great food, clean atmosphere, and a team that clearly cares.

I liked how much food you got and how you had a few options to choose from. Food: * pineapple passion mojito - 5/5 absolutely DELICIOUS. It was a perfect drink to have with dinner. It was light and refreshing with just enough sweetness. * chicken and pork bao - 4/5 super yummy! I actually liked the pork more than the chicken. It was almost like a buttery taste. It was soft and the meat just fell apart. The chicken was good too but was more on the tough side, probably because it was fried. * spicy beef ramen - 5/5 I will absolutely be back to get this again. Just the right level of spice. All the ingredients were fresh, well made, and delicious. It's the type of food that you can't help eating more of even though you're beyond full. * crispy chicken ramen - 3.5/5 This was still a good choice! I loved the chicken in it. I think this is a very safe choice for anyone who might be on the more picky side. The broth was good but not spicy. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this place! There are so many options and there is something for everyone to try.

In town for work and met up with my sisters, who drove an hour just to come have dinner with us, so…read morewe figured we'd try this place after seeing all the great reviews. The food took a little longer than expected to come out, and not everything hit the table at the same time, so a few of us were eating while others were still waiting. Not the end of the world, but it's always nicer when everyone gets to dig in together. Now for the good part...the food was definitely worth talking about. Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. I don't think anyone at the table had a bad meal, so major props to the kitchen. The only thing that really held this visit back was the service. Our server started off really pleasant, but as the night went on she became less attentive and seemed a little frustrated. We found ourselves waiting quite a while for things while she seemed much more engaged with her other tables. By the time we were ready to pay, she was crouched down on her phone and looked a little annoyed that she had to stop what she was doing to cash us out. We all have off days, so I'm hoping that's all it was. We actually rated the experience a 7.5/10 while we were sitting there, and for us that's a solid score because we're pretty tough critics. The food absolutely carried the night. Unfortunately, the service knocked it down a bit. We all work in the restaurant industry ourselves, so we're usually the first people to give grace because we know how chaotic a shift can get. I'd definitely come back for the food and hope we just caught our server on an off night

Stood waiting for about 4 mins before they came out from the back and took my order, (I do believe she was working just busy) and then the momo took about 10 mins to be ready.

They do have bubble waffles and other small food options, but I haven't tried any of those yet. Both their milk tea and fruit tea are good. They have good tapioca pearls, which I'm usually not the biggest fan of! Both times I've been in, they don't have many people working (1-2). But they are so friendly and helpful it makes up for the small wait to order. The last time I went they only had one person taking orders, making the drinks, and answering the phone; so make sure to be patient. Nothing about the bubble tea itself sticks out as amazing, but if you like bubble tea you won't be disappointed. Overall rating: 4.2/5 stars

Arguably the Best Bubble Tea in Wadsworth!…read more If you're looking for great bubble tea in Wadsworth, Tea Time should be at the top of your list. With three bubble tea shops in town, it's safe to say we have options--but Tea Time is arguably the best of them. From the quality of their drinks to the friendly service, this place stands out. We first discovered Tea Time on their very first day open, and since then, we've been frequent visitors. Every time we come back, we're impressed by their consistency and attention to quality. The menu offers a fantastic selection of milk teas, fruit teas, and toppings, all made fresh to order. The boba has the perfect texture--soft yet chewy--and the flavors are well-balanced, never overly sweet. I especially enjoyed how smooth and creamy the milk tea was, and the fruit teas are refreshing without tasting artificial. Beyond the drinks, the Korean Cheese Corn Dog was a pleasant surprise. It was crispy, cheesy, and paired perfectly with the tea. It's a great snack to round out the experience. The shop itself has a welcoming, clean, and modern atmosphere, making it a great place to sit and enjoy your drink. The staff is always kind and willing to help if you're unsure what to order. With great quality, excellent service, and a strong menu, Tea Time is arguably the best bubble tea shop in Wadsworth. Whether you're a boba lover or trying it for the first time, this spot is definitely worth a visit!

So when I spotted Golden Tiger Tea while driving through downtown Massillon, we knew we had to stop in and see if their drinks lived up to our expectations. Golden Tiger Tea is located right in the heart of downtown Massillon and is very easy to get to. As soon as we walked in, I noticed the welcoming décor. They have two small nook-style seating areas right at the entrance on both sides, with views of downtown. It creates a cozy atmosphere if you want to sit and enjoy your drink inside. My wife ordered the Peachy Sunrise with strawberry popping pearls, and I went with a Valentine's Day-themed cocoa chocolate strawberry milk tea with traditional tapioca pearls. Both drinks were incredibly tasty and refreshing. On top of that, the prices were very reasonable--our total for both drinks was just $13.88, so it definitely won't break the bank. Another fun touch was their selection of boba-themed merchandise, including plushie keychains and cute Mickey-inspired boba keychains. They were also offering heart-shaped frosted sugar cookies for Valentine's Day, which added to the festive vibe. The woman who took our order was extremely friendly and provided excellent customer service, which made the experience even better. Overall, we had an amazing visit to Golden Tiger Tea. If you're ever driving through downtown Massillon, Ohio, I highly recommend stopping in and treating yourself to a refreshing boba.

So we saw this place while driving though Massillon and decided to finally stop in…read more The drinks are just ok, it's incredibly sweet for Boba, the Brown Sugar boba barely tasted of tea and had an overtly strong brown sugar taste it was just overpowering, sugar milk essentially. They should lessen the sugar in the recipe so the taste of the tea comes through more. Partner got the strawberry milk, he said it tasted like strawberry nesquik. He was neutral on it, didn't love it, didn't hate it. Overall it's just ok, Momohana does a better boba if you're looking for something a bit more authentic tasting, but it's worth a stop in at least to patron local shops. Personally it's a pass for us, it was far too sweet for my liking and the strawberry milk teas was middle ground. The building is ok enough, the decor definitely caters to a younger group considering there are shoes on display. It looks clean so it's whatever. Try it at least once, maybe you'll like it.
