They were set up at the Houston Asian. Night Market. One of the few stands that was not busy at all. The staff didn't look engaging. We just ordered a milk tea and it was average. No straw so I'm not sure how we were supposed to drink the boba at the bottom. read more

I actually frequent this tea shop regularly when I come visit my friend. We probably go 1-2 times a week. Surprisingly, their Vietnamese coffee is really good. It's not your typical usual ca phe sua da but I really like it. It almost tastes like it has a hint of chocolate in it. I also enjoy their fruit teas. Can't really get it wrong since it's tea and syrup. If you need more fruity flavor, just request for an extra pump of the fruit syrup. I don't generally get sinkers so can't comment on that. Their popcorn chicken and fries with lemon pepper is amazing. I also really enjoy their homemade pho. They only serve that on the weekend. The menu is priced right compared to all the other boba places that I frequent all around Houston. I've noticed a few bad reviews on service. I've never had an issue. They were always friendly to me. If you're aware they're understaffed, is there any reason to write a poor review? They're already trying their best. It's difficult finding workers after Covid, give these places some slack. At some point if everyone keeps complaining and writing reviews about understaffed workers, who is going to even want to work anymore? I would be more upset if I paid big money at a fine dining restaurant and received poor service than a place that has counter service. read more

Man, am I so glad there's a boba place in Alvin finally! It may not be perfect, but I think there's lots of room to improve so that this place becomes an Alvin staple. I've been here 4 or 5 times now and had items including smoothies, slushes, milk teas, and regular teas, and while they're all tasty, my lort they are teeth rottingly sweet. There's no option to request less sweetness like most boba places have these days, because whatever powders or flavoring they use is already sweetened. The only thing they've said they could do is add more water, but then you lose the flavor of the beverage. Still, I enjoy their teas after a workout, and getting one of the more decadent things is a nice treat once in a while. The shop is clean and sleek looking, and the staff has always been friendly. The only down side is that if there's more than a single person in the store, service is terribly slow. I've waited more than 10min to get my drink before when there was a small group of 3-4 folks who had ordered before me. Today was the fastest service I've ever had and it was still about a 5min wait for a regular tea that just needed to be shook/stirred up. The other downside, in my opinion, is the lack of veggie/vegan options on their food menu. I would LOVE to try their banh mis and spring rolls, but it's like there's some law in Alvin that says no one can serve anything with tofu. I ask for tofu every time I'm there, in hopes they'll finally add it, but I'm sure I'll be waiting quite a while. Overall, I like this place, and since they've cornered the market here in Alvin, I'll keep going back. I'll also keep hoping they adjust the way they make things so they can be ordered at different sweetness levels and asking for tofu banh mis and spring rolls, too. Bonus tip: They accept call ahead orders. I haven't done this yet because I'm not entirely 'fluent' in their offerings, but once you figure out what you like, this is almost certainly the best way to avoid an interminable wait. PSA: The entrance/stairs to this place aren't super handicap friendly. They do have a ramp on the far side of the parking lot, but it's still quite a bit of a walk to still get into the shop if you can make it up the ramp. read more

I'm glad that there is a boba shop in Alvin, but what I can't stand is how bad the quality of boba tea is here. The boba its self was hard and had no flavor at all. The tea its self tasted almost flavorless had an extremely bitter taste. The lady that took are order was nice, but the wait was extremely long and didn't need to take 20 minutes to make 1 boba tea. The actual location is easy to miss , it looks like a house from the front. The inside looks pretty as soon as you walk in but look at the ceiling and you can find extremely big cobwebs and HUGE spiders. It looks like they haven't even dusted in there in a LONG time . Also before you buy anything here make sure you look at the prices because they are EXPENSIVE 6 dollars for just a milk boba tea is ridiculous I would only pay that amount for good boba, boba should only cost 1-3 at most. Also they don't give you boba you have to pay extra like the drink alone isn't expensive. read more

Usually I have a good experience at the store and I love there drinks but today I did not...and no I was not rude I just wanted to know why I was charged twice and I was trying to show her that I got charged twice , but she didn't want to have it so instead I waited and got our items but I was on the phone with the bank and they told me to check with the store and so my boyfriend went and tried to talk to her but instead of being in the front she was in the back on her phone and he did ring the bell they have up there to get her attention he was waiting for, for about a good 5 mins and she finally came out after someone else came into the store and he talked to her again and she was just having attitude and the worst customer service and he asked to speak to a manger after she asked if he would like too and he said yes, so she gets all pissy and throws the curtains to the side all mad. And go gets the manger and I know she telling her what happen cause they don't come back for a few minutes and the manger had better customer service then the girl did and actually explained what happened and showed us it does happen but man I understand we have bad days but don't be rude to your customers like trust me, girl I get it, just fake it till you make it. But I will still keep buying from here but change your attitude and customers service read more

I got strawberry shine, watermelon, and the brown sugar drinks, they tasted 10/10 better than others I've had. The service was good and gave me good recommendations. It's a nice place to go to have lunch with friends. read more

Cute new boba place! They have lots of interesting teas you don't always find, which is nice. My jasmine tea was a bit over brewed, but it wasn't too bitter. All the teas are sweetened. The boba is good! It's not over or under cooked :) they also have a mini fridge of some sodas for $1 and some chip bags and trail mix. I do wish they had more variety of bobas and jellies though. read more
