I stopped here for lunch in between appointments. No one else was there and I was served immediately. I ordered the brown sugar milk tea with reduced sugar and ice. It was perfect. I also ordered two sushi rolls, Crunchy Tuna Roll and the Ultimate Tuna Roll, both of which were freshly made to order and delicious. I will happily come back another time and enjoy more food & drink options. read more

I was excited to go here. It is a small restaurant in a plaza off of Sheridan, the same plaza as Caputi's. I tried a milk tea which was good. You can select the level of ice, sugar, etc. The woman who took our order was the same person who made our sushi. We loved the volcano roll and enjoyed all of the sushi we ordered. We ordered three. There is plenty of dining space which is very clean and nicely decorated. read more

The bubble tea was really nice tasting and the ambience was cool and interesting. I just couldn't stand being inside the place because their equipment that makes the magic that is boba was too loud. Like, ears ringing for the rest of the night loud. I couldn't believe it and neither could my dad, who, while not noise sensitive like me, also thought the screeching of the equipment was too much...and he's partially deaf. I feel bad, because I'm probably going to be too anxious to go back here. The staff was really nice and their pricing was decent, so I do recommend that you give it a try. Hopefully the decibel level is better. read more

Went for a quick Boba Run! Had to stop into the plaza to grab some donuts and decided, "why not some boba too?!" I got the Jasmine Green Tea with Boba and my sister got the Tiger Boba Latte. Both of these were so great! My favorite part of mine is the tapioca boba. I love green tea but the tapioca make it such a fun drink. It was a little quiet today so if you can go later in the afternoon, service is usually pretty fast and great. The girl working was so nice and explained all the questions we had about different kinds to try. This might be my favorite boba spot in the city so far on my boba adventure. read more

PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS BUSINESS AND IF YOU HAVE A MEDICAL PROBLEM DO NOT ENTER BECAUSE THEY DONT ACCOMADATE ANYONE WITH MEDICAL ISSUES. I took my granddaughter there today for a Boba tea. When she went in she asked the owner to turn off the lights while she was in there because she was Epileptic and the owner told her NO. She had her medical alert bracelet on also. Luckily there was someone there who held her hand while she was having the seizure. My daughter called there and first the owner said the manager and owner were not there and hung up on her when asked why she wouldn't turn off the lights and then hung up on her. When she called back and asked for a phone number for the owner, she said she was the owner. read more

I was looking to fill my bubble tea craving when I stumbled upon Teaxpresso Cafe, so my date and I came in to try what they had to offer. The inside decor is super cute and trendy and would be a nice place to hang out and chat with friends or even to get some work done. Teaxpresso Cafe offers a variety of bubble teas, smoothies and also coffee-flavored drinks with plenty of toppings to choose from. I went with the Taro Slush with boba and less sugar. I was pleasantly surprised by the taste and flavor of the tea. Next time I really would like to try one of the coffee flavored drinks and will definitely be back! read more

I came here during their soft grand opening and it was mess! There were kids running around everywhere, pushing and shoving customers. I'm assuming that these kids belonged to the owners of this place because they were running to the back room. The line was really long but that was to be expected. It took me an hour to order and get my drinks. I have to come back during a slower day to give a fairer opinion. The quality of the drinks was average. read more

am so happy I found this place. BY ACCIDENT! I went to Paula's Donuts and next to it was a Boba Tea place. I stop in. To my surprise they have a VIETNAMESE COFFEE boba tea. I ask if they can make it hot. 'Of course we can.' Ever since moving to Buffalo I have driven a half hour this way, a half hour that way. Downtown, uptown, malls, suburbs. Asked everyone. Tried many places and nothing. And by accident, FINALLY!!! By far the best Vietnamese Coffee in Buffalo. FINALLY!!! Also!!! The best Boba Tea in Buffalo. And the most reasonable. There is a Boba Tea by my house and it is supposedly the best - sorry, not even close. The flavor is way better here. . And the price is way better. As is the service. Best boba tea in Buffalo.

What a cute little cafe! It's literally adorable inside with a few tables and modern decor. We have officially been here twice now and both times were fun! We had to try boba for the first time ever so we tried a green iced tea and an iced espresso both with regular boba. They were so good that I was craving another one when I passed the store again so I tried the espresso again this time with coffee jelly boba added (recommended to me) and it was so cool that they were little squares! I'm going to keep visiting here and can't wait to try out all the different items they have. I am not a boba pro since this has been our only place trying it but I do recommend this spot to anyone! read more

Very cute and loved the huge orchid in the window, also noticed an abundance of outlets at the bar stool seating if you come with your laptop. Not super big inside but comfortable. We got Thai milk tea, tiger stripe with espresso and also it without. All three were excellent, I'd say my favorite was the tiger milk with espresso.

My friends introduced to me to this new place and they LOVE it, they come here so often that they always buy extra drinks to bring home for later . I can see why though, this place is one of my favorite places to grab a refresher. There are many options to choose from and each drink is unique. Like the Thai macchiato with salt foam, that was new to me and I enjoyed it a lot. They also sell coffee jelly as a topping (it's not often that I find this at any of the milk tea shops anymore) and I usually combine that with jasmine green milk tea, 50% sugar, less ice (one of my favorite drinks). I would recommend coming here if you want to try new drinks. The owner and staffs are very friendly and sweet too! read more

I love this place! I usually don't stray away from my *normal go-to* drinks, but this is the only place I'm willing to try different drinks every time I go there. I've tried 8 different drinks by far and was not disappointed (because we all know nothing is worst than being disappointed/catfished by food). Here's what I've had so far: Signature Milk Tea w/ lychee jelly (10/10) (my boyfriend's go-to & he's picky about all his food/drink lol) Thai Milk Tea w/ Boba (10/10) (if you're an avid Thai tea drinker you already know that some places can steep it too long and it can have a bitter aftertaste) Strawberry Slush w/ lychee jelly (8/10) Honey Dew Milk Tea w/ Boba (9/10) (my son likes both of these drinks) Taro Milk Tea w/ boba & sometimes red bean (10/10) (my parents go-to; they're picky as well!) Dragon Mango w/ crystal boba (10/10) (so refreshing!!) Espresso/Coffee Milk Tea w/ jelly coffee (8/10) (perfect combo for a pick me up) Strawberry Twist w/ popping boba (passionfruit) (10/10) (SO refreshing! I'm obsessed with this one!)

They should have left it off the plate if that was all they had left. Sushi is about presentation more so than most food and this was not done well. -Miso soup. This was not traditional miso soup. I know there are miso soup with daikon as an add on, but there's usually wakame in it. There was no enoki mushroom either like it says on their menu. The ones I uses to make, and all the sushi restaurants I've been to were the traditional tofu, wakame and diced green onions. Have that as a first option since more widely known, and make the daikon as a second option. Also, miso broth was bland. Needed more bonito flakes. Equipment - you guys need to periodically check your tables and chairs for damage. When I grabbed my chair by the seat to scoot myself closer to the table the seat came off. Need to balance out the portions of ingredients in your rolls. California roll needed more imitation crab. There was too much cucumber and avocado. You guys need to focus more on quality and presentation instead of having a ton of different roll on your menu. When you are pricing your sushi like a mid-high end restaurant, the quality and presentation needs to match. I read the reviews on this place and thought all the kinks would have been worked out by now, but it seems not. We didn't try out the other non-sushi dishes they had on their menu, so we have no opinions on them. I am one of the few who will not be coming here again for sushi.

My friends both ordered the seafood tempura thinking this would be the size of a meal or at least include rice. Everything I ordered was about 3-4 bites of food, the sushi was 6 very tiny pieces. The sushi was good and if I ever went back I'd order more. The jelly fish was crunchy and interesting and I ordered it for the experience so I enjoyed it. I love octopus but this was the toughest most horribly overcooked octopus I've ever had. I forced some of it down but had to spit out two pieces of it because they were completely inedible octopus flavored rubber. My friends were extremely disappointed in their "meals" that consisted of a single tempura shrimp, a single tempura squid and a single tempura scallop. They left hangry. The drinks were good and seemingly normal portions.

While people recommend another nearby restaurant for fancy rolls, Wasabi was recommended for your standard type. The staff were prompt, kind, and friendly. The restaurant appeared to leave a bit to be desired. I ordered four rolls, which were small and packed into one take out container. The sushi was bland, oddly prepared, and lifeless. I've enjoyed sushi at dozens of restaurants and felt Wasabi was in the lower 10% I've ever had.

I wanted to go someplace different for dinner tonight. So I found this on yelp…read more My son and I went in and it looked pretty nice. It was a cozy atmosphere and I like the decorations. I ordered the spicy Ramen with pork the General Tzo's Chicken and fried chicken Diosa. I also ordered a Diet Coke The Diet Coke was $3.50 and all it was a can pop. That showed me the price were going to be ridiculous right away. Came the fried Gyoza, which was not fried. It was clearly steamed or boiled. It wasn't bad, but it would've been a lot better if it was fried like I ordered it. Next came the Spicy miso Ramen . I ordered it medium spice, but it was very hot. It was hard to eat. Therefore I did not eat it. I only had a few bites and that's all I could tolerate. The pork was all fat . That was pretty bad to have all fat and no meat. All I could taste in the broth was what I could only describe as dirty ,fishy ,ocean water. Which obviously to me was disgusting. My general Tzo's chicken, I ordered medium spice and it had no spice whatsoever to it. It was very bland and tasted sweet. I did not like it.. Well, I left there starving and I spent over $40 on food that I couldn't eat. The prices are incorrect on yelp, all the prices went up, except for the pop ,that came down. The only positive or semi-positive thing I have to say is the waitress was really nice, and when you asked for something she went and got it right away. The only problem was it was hard to understand what she was saying or what she was trying to say. By the way, if you're from Yelp and you go in here, you will get either a free spring roll or a free, sticky mango, whatever that is. But when I showed the waitress my coupon from yelp, she said, my boss doesn't associate with yelp, although there is a Yelpie award right there on the counter. Another place, I will not be returning to unfortunately

I absolutely love Teaxpresso Cafe! The atmosphere is really nice and welcoming, making it a great place to relax, study, or hang out with friends. The staff are always friendly, helpful, and provide excellent service that makes every visit enjoyable. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes you get. Everything I've tried has been fresh, delicious, and worth every penny. Their drinks are amazing, and they have a great variety of options to choose from. The cafe is clean, comfortable, and has a great vibe overall. If you're looking for a place with great service, affordable prices, and fantastic food and drinks, this is definitely one of the best spots in the Buffalo area. Highly recommend! read more

BEST BOBA IN BUFFALO I've tried 4 of their drinks so far and all of them were SOO delicious. I would personally say their tiger boba latte is better than the ones I've tried in nyc! The staff were so welcoming and nice. The drinks are so refreshing and creamy and their drinks are ALWAYS consistent. I would definitely recommend #bestboba #bustanut #nutty #creamy #divine #scrumptious read more

Very cute and clean place. Went there for the first time and loved the vibe. Had a lychee milk tea, the flavors were a little different than other boba milk teas, not sure if I loved it. Will definitely have to try more of the drinks. 100% coming back! read more

10/10 Experience at Tea Leaf Cafe!…read more Tea Leaf Cafe in Buffalo is easily one of my favorite spots in the city. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is cozy, clean, and welcoming. It's the perfect place to relax, hang out with friends, or just enjoy some quiet time. The drinks are AMAZING. Whether you're getting classic milk tea, fruit tea, or something more unique, everything tastes super fresh and perfectly balanced -- not overly sweet, just right. The boba texture is always on point too. You can tell they really care about quality. The staff is friendly, patient, and fast with orders, even when it's busy. They make you feel appreciated as a customer. If you're in Buffalo and love bubble tea (or even if you're trying it for the first time), I 100% recommend Tea Leaf Cafe. Definitely a 10/10 -- I'll keep coming back!

Walking in, the place is cutely decorated with a few stools for seating in a counter area. For ordering, you self-order on an iPad. They offer a few types of milk or fruit tea (not a very large variety) and two snack food choices. Unfortunately the iPad ordering doesn't let you customize the sweetness level so the Korean coffee drink I ordered was much too sweet for my taste, so much so that I couldn't really finish the drink. We also ordered the popcorn chicken with sauce (extra 0.99 cents for the sauce) which unfortunately tasted like air fryer burnt dry mystery meat that was pretty much inedible. The container for the bubble tea was cute and insta-worthy, however the lack of being able to customize the sugar level and the poor food likely won't have me coming back.
