    Tastea Bellaire
    Vicky L.

    This tea spot is on the strip of Bellaire that's a bit less saturated with bubble tea shops, making it a good location for people to visit. Parking is easy up front but can get crowded on busy times of the day. There are only two small tables to enjoy tea and snacks inside but the atmosphere is modern and welcoming. Their menu consists of many great drink options, anywhere from milk teas (with or without boba) to fruit teas and smoothies to coffee, and energy drinks to slushy freezes. I love that they let you do a top off with no extra charge as I tend to order my drinks with less ice. They also offer a handful of snack options like fried shrimp or calamari, funnel cake sticks, popcorn chicken, and even rice bowls. The service is fast and friendly and the teas I've tried were all refreshing and tasty. However, I do notice that some of the teas are more sweet than others even at my go-to percentage for sweetness, which is almost always at thirty percent. In addition, I prefer the fruity teas here compared to others. Its a nice spot to grab a drink with friends or to take on-the-go.

    The best part about Tastea was Dat, the cashier. He was very helpful (my first time here), funny, and nice. I was between the matcha strawberry and then mango green tea. Dat said the tea was strong in the mango green tea and the mango was barely there. I was also told the matcha was made to order (not an instant mix in powder). When I got my drink the color was off and I knew immediately it was gonna taste bad. You couldn't taste the matcha at all, it was nonexistent (prob a cheap matcha or a mix in...)...disappointing.

    Pandan milk tea

    I really like that they had a 32 ounce option. I ordered the pandan milk tea. You can definitely taste the flavor and it was just as expected along with some black/grass jelly. I was here for maybe about five minutes. They were very quick and efficient. The place was clean and they had some flyers out, promoting their seasonal drinks. Parking is free and out front .

    The Unknown. Really refreshing.

    Very fast and friendly service. Wasn't sure what to get and they walked me through some of the options. Offering good recommendations that would be refreshing on a hot day. Would come back.

    I was excited to check out Tastea since Bellaire has so many teahouses and more on the way. On my first visit, I got the Strawberry Ecsteasy, which is made with black tea and black jelly, but I substituted lychee jelly--my favorite. The drink was okay, but it didn't stand out compared to other places. I went again a few days ago and tried the Strawberry Ecsteasy with green tea and lychee jelly instead, and it was pretty good--definitely better than my first experience. What I was really looking forward to was the popcorn chicken, which they call "Karate Chicken." Unfortunately, it was disappointing. The portion size was too small for the price, and it was a bit too salty. I still prefer the popcorn chicken from Kim's Cafe--it remains my favorite. Overall, Tastea was decent, but not enough to pull me away from my regular spots. For drinks, R&B Tea is still my top pick for Strawberry Green Tea and other teas, and for popcorn chicken, I'll be sticking with Kim's Cafe.

    Wonderful customer service. I read the Elite Week wrong as I thought it ended Nov 4th but still glad I was able to visit. Clean establishment. Seating outside and a two benches inside. I couldve done without the cigarette smoke being blown by other patrons from the restaurant next door before I walked in but oh well. You have to take the good with the bad as we all have our vices/habits. Great menu and received order in less than 5 minutes. I ordered a blueberry tea.

    I like this boba spot and the different drinks they have to offer. I think the price is pretty good for what you are getting. I will say their drinks are on the sweeter side so I would lower the sweetness if you don't like your drinks sweet. Also their fries are so addictive! They have different flavors to offer and they give you so much! They also make the drinks super fast so you are never waiting for a long time. The bellaire location is a little small compared to katy but it's very clean.

    great white (peach white tea)
    Joyce C.

    The workers are so nice! There is some seating, but it's more for waiting on drinks than staying to study. It feels very clean, and the drinks come out fast. This spot has better prices than other boba shops who charge $8 for a small drink. The 32 oz size is honestly a great deal. Their boba is uniquely colored (green), but it tastes like regular boba!

    Mango green tea
    Huong N.

    Tried the mango green tea which had chunks of mango (small, diced and kind of hard) and added honey boba (soft and chewy). Asked for the drink to be half sweet, but it was still fairly sweet. The selection of drinks is great, and overall looking forward to trying more at future visits.

    Small dine-in area

    Cute little tea shop. We were promptly greeted upon walking in. The staff are very friendly and helpful with your drink selections. I opted for the tiger milk tea that has chunks of crème brûlée with 50% sugar. That seems to be the right sugar level for me. Delicious and creamy drink. My husband ordered the bootea shaker with tapioca and lite sugar. The boba was fresh, soft and chewy. Their specialty are the fruit teas with little fruit bits. Drinks comes in 20 oz and 32 oz sizes. Prices are fair. Parking here might be a challenge on the weekend with other busy establishments in the same shopping center.

    It pains me to write this but combining both of the times I've been here, it definitely did not exceed my expectations. The only reason I'm giving it a 3 is because the service was great and their Vietnamese coffee was very good. So this place is more set up for to go orders. They only have a booth area for you to wait on your drinks. The 2nd time I was here they did bring out two tables. There's also outside seating as well with no tables (maybe they'll set that up later). The drinks came out swiftly both of the times even though it was very busy the 2nd time. Here are the drinks I've ordered. * Sunset Peach- refreshing? Yes. But even with less sugar I didn't taste any tea. I was also not a fan of their green mango bits. 2/5 * Tea to Mango- tea flavor was subtle. 2.5/5 * Taro milk tea- says it has black tea in it but I didn't taste any of that. Taro flavor was there, it's just not strong enough. 2/5 * The unknown- zero tea flavor, felt like I was just drinking passion fruit juice. I do like that they added lychee bits into the drink. 2/5 * Vietnamese coffee- Their saving grace. Authentic & potent as how it's suppose to be. This will have me up all day. 4/5 I'm not saying I'm an expert with boba tea but I go at least twice a week. So I definitely know what I'm talking about. What I look for when I'm drinking Milk/Fruit "tea" is for the tea flavor to be strong or at least strong enough. Presentation & other ingredients are important but if the tea is weak then points will be deducted. This place is new so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. I'll come back in a month and give them one last try.

    Maybe it's the nostalgia or maybe it's the incredibly large sweet tooth we all have as a kid. The general consensus after trying this place in Houston was the memories of getting Tastea on the family trip to California as a kid was much more pleasant. At 50% sweetness the Unknown was incredibly sweet and overpowered with what tasted like the sweetened juice you get from canned lychee fruit. I'm 80% sure the "Longan bits" were lychee fruit and my friend who got the lychee peaches had a drink that tasted and almost looked the exact same as my "unknown". Looking at the other pictures I can see that this is just their standard. A little disappointing because of the fond memories of this place but I was expecting more authenticity tbh.

    20oz Wintermelon Tea
    David P.

    Nut allergy warning: Coffees do have hazelnut. I came here around 8 PM on a Saturday evening and there was not really a line. I got my drink in about six minutes. Ordered lite sweetness, less ice, and top off with tea. The Wintermelon milk Tea with honey boba was one of the sweetest drinks I've ever had at less sugar level. I let three friends all try it and it was ridiculously sweet to the point of saying we're basically drinking cream with sugar. The boba tasted like drinking condensed corn syrup. If I ever got dragged back here, I'd definitely order a drink at "None" sugar level. For $8 (with $1 tip) on a smaller drink, I definitely won't be back. It might be one of the only times in my life I could not finish a boba tea and had everybody in my party refuse to take it.

You can order at the kiosk or at the cashier. For sweetness customization, they only have full level, less sweet, and no sugar options. The less sweet is already plenty sweet for me, so wish there was a slightly less sweet option than that. The service was polite and friendly, and the inside was clean with several tables. Besides the great taste, I really appreciate the "no artificial stuff" way of doing things. After one drink I'm Chicha San Chen fan! Be sure to stop by sometime and try their tea :D

One team member kindly explained the drinks I was curious about and even gave me a recommendation, which I really appreciated--and it was spot on! I went with the Hawaii Sunset fruit tea at 50% sugar. Just a heads-up: their fruit teas lean more on the fruit-forward side than actual tea, and mine was definitely on the sweeter end of the spectrum--likely from the syrup in the mango popping boba. Even at half sugar, it was pretty sweet. I also noticed a couple of things that could've made the drink better: some lemon seeds were left in, and the smaller bits of mango weren't fully ripe, which made the texture a bit off. That said, the staff's kindness and the wide variety of drinks make me want to come back and try other options! I'm especially interested in their Saigon street food menu and those adorable kitty paw-shaped mochi waffles. The shop itself is small with limited seating, so I'd recommend grabbing your drinks to-go unless you're staying for a bite. Bonus points for being located in a shopping plaza with plenty of parking--no stress finding a spot!

The interior is smallish, but they've managed to cram a good number of seats both in and outside. These are interesting because they remind me of something I've seen in Southeast Asia, namely the fact of furniture is condensed and also at a height that makes it noticeably different from what we would see around most cafes. Late at night, one can always find a decent crowd of young folks drinking and eating just outside the cafe. The wall mural is well done and is something like I would feel like I would see in Vietnam. The claw machines are simply a sign of the times. The drinks are someone average across the board with the exception of their coffee selection. The sea salt coffee as well as the regular cap phe sua da Viet coffee, are quite good. Ube coffee is a tad on the sweet side and the coconut coffee is only recommended for folks who really love coconut. (#2) Milk tea is fine overall but I don't feel necessarily better than the dedicated specialty spots. Fruit-Based teas such as longan is much more refreshing. Surprisingly where I think they shine is the food. The series of bites make for excellent late night snacks. Their coconut Viet style pudding is very tasty, the crispy rice (com chay cha bong) has a nice crunch, the grilled rice rolls (banh trang cuon chien) are good when fresh, stir fried corn (bap xao), and the fried combo (lac muoi tom) is always a hit. Skip the fried dumplings and popcorn chicken. Customer service is generally good. English speakers won't struggle too much, especially since the menu is a picture menu. They accept credit cards and there's plenty of parking almost always. __________ (#1) Midnight every night. (#2) Not the essence, but actual coconut bits.

    Ulike Tea was an okay experience overall. I ordered fries and some food, the taste was good, but…read morethe presentation wasn't very appealing since everything came in to-go boxes. The tea itself was alright, nothing too memorable. The café does have nice lighting and the fact that it opens late is a plus. Decent spot, but with room for improvement.
