    Green milk tea with bubble boba tapioca pearls
    Yumi L.

    This place would not be 4 stars in California but since its in Tennessee, Ill make it 4 stars because of the lack of places here that serve bubble tea. I searched up "boba" and this was one of the only 2 places here that served it. The ambiance was actually pretty nice with its wooden interior and cute decor. You place an order at the self serve kiosk which was convenient. I ordered a small/med green milk tea with boba and it came out to $5.90 before tip...talk about LA prices. The tea did not taste like tea at all, just sugar water. But the boba was surprisingly okay because it was sweet and chewy. But tbh i only ended up drinking 30% of my cup and discarded the rest of it.

    Such a nice little restaurant! Staff are very friendly and the food tasted amazing! If you're looking for a quiet place to eat and relax this is it! I had the sukiyaki beef bento and it was delicious. I will be going back to try some of their other menu items!

    We love tai chi bubble but the service has become really bad resulting in orders that are inconsistent and incorrect. The cashier got really rude with me today when I reordered a drink she forgot to ring up. When we got home I realized the it wasn't just the drink the entire order that was wrong. Previous times employees were arguing with each other or scrolling on their phones.

    It was a quaint 1st time visit. I walked over a few blocks from the bank where I had validated parking. I picked a bowl over the burrito because you get more rice. I really liked the brown sushi rice. I learned "sushi rice" has vinegar in it, which I would pick every time. The veggies tasted great. There were plenty of options. I would definitely double the protein next time because 1 was not enough for me. I really liked the tea and would come back again to try other flavors and maybe a burrito . I think it was priced reasonably. I thought the macaroons were good too. They offer to go lids for the bowls. I took my left overs home and had the rice for dinner again.

    As I set forth on an extremely long road trip- 27 hours, to be exact- this was the perfect refreshment stop after the first 9-10 hours! First off, Taichi is in downtown Chattanooga (which it kind of hints to in the name), which is one of the most quaint and charming areas I've seen! I thought it would be more "big city" downtown type, but it wasn't at all. Maybe I just missed that part. Either way, I absolutely loved it and wished I could've spent more time wandering around. Second, once walking into Taichi and seeing what all they make, I really wished I had been more hungry. I was really in the mood for boba, but their poke bowls looked beyond marvelous. And ramen- when can you go wrong with a good bowl of ramen? This was clearly an authentic place, so the answer is you can't. The boba was pretty good- I got the thai tea which I had never tried before. It was really interesting, and I wouldn't get it again but I think Taichi made it about as good as you can get. My dad got a passionfruit smoothie with tapioca pearls and it packed a tart punch and was gone quickly. A last thing to mention is how adorable the whole place is! Stuffed pandas sitting out everywhere as decorations, can you get any cuter?! This will definitely be on my list when I return to Chattanooga.

    Poke Mazing and Taro milk tea
    Linda I.

    Poke bowl was delicious and service was quick, but the boba tea is lacking. I ordered taro milk tea, it wasted watered down and the tapioca pears were too soft. The place was small but there were plenty of indoor seating areas. Metered streets parking are available close by.

    Good option for bubble tea... We arrived in Chattanooga late afternoon and stopped by TaiChi for some boba drinks. No dining in and everything was takeout option only. Inside we wondered what the sheet on the counter was that guests were completing... these would be normally asked by their servers but during Covid times guests were filling out a form for orders of ramen and poke bowl with plenty of options listed, choice of ingredients, sauces, toppings, flavors, etc....pick your own combination. Anyway, we just came for boba drinks and got them in decent time considering they were also filling online GrubHub orders. We ordered Coconut and Chocolate (w/ lychee) Smoothies. Mine was the chocolate slushee but they ran out of boba. Boo ¯\_('~')_/¯ They suggested lychee. I agreed which I regretted later on because after tasting it, sorry, but I wasn't a fan. I really wanted boba. I should've opted to not have it at all. Anyway, the drinks were delicious. Hubby loved his Coconut drink. We just needed a little sweetness that evening and Taichi was a perfect choice! Looks like a favorite downtown spot for young adults. Street parking. Review #1864

    So I'm currently living in Chattanooga as it is I'm a university student at nearby UTC. I had been looking for some very good Boba and Japanese cuisine. Thankfully, I did not have to go far to find that when I found Taichi bubble tea on Broad Street downtown. My sushi burritos and bubble tea were both amazing. Best I could ever ask for if you're looking for good bubble tea and Japanese cuisine in the Chattanooga area, This is the place you need to visit. I will definitely be back whenever possible thanks

    Atmosphere

    The boba tea wasn't very great, it didn't have much flavor. The atmosphere was nice, i would've liked to try the ramen. The service was decent.

    This is a cute place which has amazing Bubble teas and Pokè. A very cute ambiance for a date !! I'm a vegetarian so I got the poke with Tofu as the protein . The mango sauce is delicious! The poke bowl itself was refreshing and filling to have yumm I got the Watermelon milk tea with lychee bubble ! Yumm I can't wait to try the Ramen

    Jessy J.

    The location has quick service, friendly staff. The poke bowls we chose were excellent! Lots of veggies options, and can be picky as you want. Only street parking, but paid parking lot near by.

    Service: Meh Some of us are used to the service industry and certain standards. Fine, I can be chill if you want to have a boba drink while you're working, but DUDE...you seriously don't need to pick up your drink and suck it into your face every time a customer was in front of you. The attendant we had needed to have its green slush with boba while taking our order. No hello, no can I take your order, just slurp slurp. Options - good A fair amount of tea/slush/add on's Size/Price - good Located in downtown Chattanooga, walking distance from the Moon Pie General Store. You can get boba, poke, or ramen. This review is SOLELY on the boba order, drinks, and in/out. The same slurp guy, messed up my friends order. And then when he made the wrong drink, he took SO SO LONG to replace it. Now that I think of it, I wonder what was in HIS drink. If he hadn't been such a off putting experience, perhaps the rating could've been higher. Alas, it was okay and tried and done. Parking - Street

    Tonkotsu ramen with beef

    This food was soooo fresh and DELICIOUS! I had a poke bowl. My daughter had beef tonkotsu ramen. Absolutely outstanding flavors, textures, and aromas.

    Everything is increased by a dollar. Thanks, Joe Biden

    i absolutely ADORE this place. this was my second time here and both times have been just amazing…read more the sweet lady who runs the front register is just so kind and welcoming, and so is the staff in the kitchen. each time i've eat here, they've been so attentive and appreciative of everyone who stops by for a meal. this time around, i wanted to try the báhn mí with the golden tofu. i also got a side of curry and a side of broccoli. this was a DELICIOUS sandwich. i used the curry to dab onto the tofu for extra flavor and let me just say i was not disappointed in the slightest. the lychee and strawberry fruit tea was very refreshing as well and had pieces of real fruit, not just syrups. my mother was a bit overstimulated by the echo of noise (there was a small gathering when we arrived and their voices bounced around the walls easily and made them sound louder than they would have otherwise), due to the high ceilings i imagine, but overall this restaurant is well kept and very clean. i can't wait to keep coming back here to find my new favorite item, this place hasn't missed yet. 10000/10, highly recommend!

    Love that we have a vegetarian/vegan restaurant here in Chatt!…read more Food was delicious and big portions!! Dumplings were amazing, we had the "beef" noodles and the rich broth ramen. My husband got the mango boba tea (DEEEEEELICIOUS) I ended up drinking most of it (oops) Highly recommend! It's a great place to eat. Booths and tables available. The service was great, and the restaurant is clean and cute!

    Long overdue review but I just found the business card Emma gave me. We were in town for a wedding…read moreand when I mean WE...30 of my husband's family from all over North American descended on this establishment for dinner on a Saturday night. They had a nice little room for us and even with such a large party accommodated separate checks so we ordered by family. If you are going to do this- PLEASE show the staff grace and leave a good tip. We left 30% off each check. The staff were prompt taking orders, bringing out food, and refilling beverages. They are also friendly, but professional. The food...the food was really good. Really with a big party like that everyone's got a hankering for something and everyone was able to get what they wanted. Portions were also very generous. Some of us got to take home leftovers. Restaurant is super clean. There is a full bar. They can accommodate smaller parties in the larger broader restaurant. We went on a Saturday and easily found street parking. Will definitely be back here when we come through town again.
