    As I walked into the store, the aroma of brewed tea, fruits and caramelized boba struck my nose. The seats along the window that were attached to the wall were hard. There are so many options of boba to choose from and you can even customize your own! I ordered their passionfruit green tea medley. There was a lot of coconut jelly which I enjoyed and the bona tasted fresh and bouncy. The service was very quick and the staff were very friendly.

    My bf and I came here and got the brown sugar milk tea with boba half sugar. It was delicious! Real nice inside if you want to hang out or study. Service was very good. Would definitely come back!

    Taro Taro Milk Tea with Sago 紫芋西米露

    Their taro with sago milk tea is amazing. It's my favorite milk tea in Katy Asian town. It's not your typical taro milk tea and I think that's why I always order it. I haven't bothered trying out their other drinks on the menu but they sound good. 5/5 no complaints.

    I had a great experience here. I went and got the milk tea. It was smooth, creamy, and had a great flavor. I ended up going with 80% sweetness, which I'm glad about because it was the perfect amount of sweetness. It was quiet inside of the store, and there was plenty of room to sit.

    Fresh Milk Black Tea, 50% sweet with Pearl

    Hard seats! I guess they don't want you to over-stay your welcome. But there is a small semi-private area that is good for groups or studying. The Tea Top menu is very broad. There are hundreds of customized drink options. If you can't decide, or are new to 'boba shoppes', they have a Tea Top Top 10 Drinks poster. Their service is always quick and friendly. Tea is what they do! This not a bakery or ramen place that also serves tea. That being said -- they do not offer any snacks or pastries. Convenient ordering and reward points available in the Tea Top app.

    SOO GOOD!! I don't crave boba often but when I do this is the only place I go. So yummy. Amazing people inside always with plenty of seating.

    The drinks are always so refreshing! From the fruit teas with lots of flavor to bold coffee drinks, we are never disappointed. The kids love the fruit slushies & boba! Baristas are always so friendly and quickly make the drinks. Plenty of indoor seating and even a space you can close off for a meeting.

    Oolong Green Tea + cheese foam + taro balls
    Katrina M.

    Of the seemingly hundreds of boba spots in Katy Asia Town, this one is my favorite! My usual order is the Wintermelon Alpine Green Tea with cheese foam and boba. The sweetness of the drink is consistently perfect at half percentage, and the boba usually always has the perfect chew without being too soft. And the main reason I pick Tea Top over its hundreds of boba neighbors is the fact that they have absolutely perfected their cheese foam recipe. It has the thick texture and slight salty-savoriness that I love adding to sweet drinks, so if you're into that kind of thing, you're going to love this. The service here is also always great. Last night I opted to try their Oolong Tea with cheese foam and taro balls because I was craving the same order I'd had from another boba shop out of town. It's not listed on the menu, but this is the only boba place that offers taro balls here (as far as I know - let me know if you know otherwise!). I walked in 30 minutes to close and asked if they had taro balls, and they were about to finish brewing up a fresh batch. The fact that they were still brewing up fresh ingredients so close to the end of the night - on a MONDAY - just felt so above and beyond. It's a bit of a drive for me to get here, but for all these reasons, I'll happily make the trip. - Drinks: 5/5 - Toppings: 4.5/5 - Service: 5/5

    Taro Milk Tea, Passion Fruit Green Tea, Milk Tea with Grass Jelly
    Fiona L.

    I really enjoyed the bubble tea here! My family and I ordered Passion Fruit Green Tea, Taro Milk Tea and Milk Tea with Grass Jelly. They were all very good! I like that they make the milk teas with non dairy, lactose free creamer powder as it tasted very similar to the Vitasoy soy milk I had as a kid! Also really liked the big globs of grass jelly that was in the drink versus other places which has small lego size grass jMy husband also liked that they use real taro blended into chunks instead of the powder. Overall the staff were very friendly and informative! The vibe in there was very industrial like with cute window seating perfect for couples or hanging out with your bestie!

    Really fast and very very clean. The stuff is pretty friendly. Boba is really good. Passion fruit green tea is good too.

    Sitting at a different table today and I noticed that they have the best charging outlet by far from all boba shops I've been to. Just like coworking Spaces at Lifetime Work! Except....better cuz they've got the off the menu Rose Milk tea that I get at 30% sugar (so I can drink multiples in one sitting!). I love agar boba it's super chewy and taste great. Rose suggested the Rose milk tea a few weeks ago and I'm totally addicted to it! Will be burning off all the sugar on the pickleball courts though so I can drink more of these delicious liquidy goodness!

    Passion Fruit Green Tea with Cheese Foam
    Melodi D.

    Had a good experience at Tea Top! The menu has a large variety of drinks and everything is very customizable. The person taking my order was super helpful in helping me figure out what to order. I eventually got the Passionfruit Green Tea with Cheese Foam. I thought it was good, but not spectacular. I think the cheese foam was a little too cheesy; I may have preferred the milk foam. We also asked for a water cup at one point and they really went above and beyond--putting water in a boba cup and sealing it with a lid! Thought it was worth a mention. :)

    Came here with a friend, and I ordered the strawberry matcha latte, which was a bit tooooo sweet. Next time, I'd probably opt for a lower sugar level. After maybe 10 or so minutes passed, one of the employees came to our table and said there was a problem with the milk they used in my drink so they took it from me and said they'd make me a new one... thought that was kinda sus, but I'm not having any issues w my digestive system, so we good. I signed up for their rewards program and got 10% off on the spot which was nice! Employees are kind, and overall vibes of the place are good. Parking is gonna be a hit or miss depending on when you go.

    This place is huge! It's a cafe in the front and yoga (I think) studio in the back behind closed…read moredoors. The cafe is huge and spacious with lots of seating. This is a great place to come study or do work on your computer. Some tables have outlets too. The service was good. No complaints. I came here because I heard their matcha is good. Each matcha is $8.5. They claim to use ceremonial grade matcha but under the matcha latte list, there is only one drink labeled CG (ceremonial grade) while others do not. The CG is the basic and they use agave for sweetening. They also don't hand mix per cup. It is pre-batched. I'm not a pre-batch hater although I do prefer each cup to be hand mixed, so I will give it a chance if it tastes good. The CG latte was surprisingly smooth and pretty good! Not bitter at all imo, but it was slightly grainy. They used the perfect amount of agave to balance. It wasn't sweet either. Just perfect balanced flavor for a regular CG matcha latte. The other matcha latte I ordered was the banana. It is SO GOOD! A lot grainier than the CG, though. But I would definitely order that again if I come to Katy. It has a cinnamon flavor in it (probably why it felt grainier than CG) and mixed with the banana flavor was just very yummy. Highly recommend!

I walked out in shock because, what? Out of all the boba spots that I have been to, never has anyone smelled my drink. In fact, I used to work at a boba shop and never has it occurred to me to smell a drink and not remake it for a customer. Like, I don't know what methods you use to confirm ingredients but you couldn't even take the drink to the back to smell it? You did it in front of my face? I don't ever ask for drinks to be remade unless it tastes nothing like I ordered, I just go about and let it be but this genuinely appalled me. I go to Wanpo and I enjoy their Mango Sago drink but this experience has led me to never come back because... are you serious?

While we were…read morethere, we saw Uncle Tetsu had a stand, and instead of buying from the stand, we decided to drive to Katy for the full experience. I had been seeing a lot of videos about Uncle Tetsu on social media and really wanted to give it a try. Unfortunately, the entire experience wasn't great. The store was very clean but the person working that day may have been having a bad day, but they had an indifferent attitude the entire time. They weren't really friendly; I just felt uncomfortable the entirety of our visit. They had 6 different cheesecake flavors, and for $15 a piece, I didn't want to just buy anything, but I felt rushed, as did my husband. Within the 5-8 minutes of us trying to decide, they asked like 3 times if we were ready when it was very obvious we were not. I was just very disappointed with the interaction, given that we had driven quite the distance. Now for what we got, we decided on the pandan coconut cheesecake, ube cheesecake, and my husband got a mango tart. These cheesecakes are very much on the subtlety sweet side, and the same goes for the flavor. It resembles more of a pound cake than a traditional cheesecake that's creamy. They are very moist and airy. For the pandan coconut, I will say the pandan flavor is stronger than the coconut. At least for me, I got the pandan flavor first, then I got the coconut flavor at the end. On the slices that did have the shredded coconut I felt like the coconut flavor was stronger but the shredded coconut was not evenly distributed on the cheesecake since it was more for decorative purposes. The ube tasted just like what it said, nothing crazy. Very subtle sweetness and flavor. Now for the mango tart, to me, it just tasted like straight-up artificial mango flavor. There was nothing natural about it. I would not buy mango again. I only see myself going back in the future for a Basque cheesecake if I'm in the area.
