Solid ramen spot and very good teas…read more I've come here a few times and the ramen and noodles are good. I normally like the tonkatsu but here I'd go with the soy based ramen which has a nice rich flavor. Generous portion of noodles. I'd like a little more of the other ingredients or say fresh bok choy but it's quick and good. And the teas are good as well. Big variety!

With the cool New England fall weather upon us, we wanted a nice bowl of ramen to warm us up. We…read morewent to visit Whale Tea on Halloween. After seeing the menu, I decided to try their chicken katsu instead while my fiancé tried the beef ramen. We also got two medium bubble teas. Both drinks came out first. For mediums, they were pretty small (especially with a $7 price tag). I will say though, my creme brûlée oreo tea was incredible. I absolutely loved the flavor and the oreo in it. Still pricey but at least it was good. My fiancé ramen came out shortly after and we weren't too impressed. The beef broth was a muted color which looked more like miso. He said the noodles were sticky and pretty soft. I waited about 15 minutes until my chicken katsu came out (we were the only ones in there so it wasn't busy) and it looked promising... Good crunch but seems like chicken thighs were used as there was a good amount of fat in it. It quickly became kinda inedible because of how much sauce was covering the whole dish. I'm a sauce girly and love my condiments, but this was just so excessive. I asked for a box to go and maybe my fiancé will finish it later lol. The girl was so sweet and even offered MORE sauce to go, but i quickly declined. Overall, may be back for the teas if it's payday. Would not try the food again.

I recall it being one of the only bubble tea spots in the area with decent drinks and I'm glad it's lasted so long. I got one of their newer matcha drinks and the taste was nice - what really pushed the review to five stars was one of the workers genuinely asking for my opinion and being transparent about how they were actively sourcing good matcha and experimenting with drink mixes. Super innovative and friendly! Overall, nice staff and nice drinks. Here's hoping it sticks around for another decade!

Thank God this place exists for people like me. One time I went outside and spilled my tea by mistake, and when I came back in to get napkins, they gave me two new teas free of charge.

The minute we stepped in, we were greeted by Evan with a warm smile. He gave us some great feedback on flavors and what is popular, he also told us his favorite toppings and encouraged us to try some other ones as well. I decided to help myself to a little bit of each flavor and several toppings. Man what a treat this was. We may have to be in Avon next month, and we hope to visit this shop again. Thanks Evan for making this a great visit.

There were tables outside and inside. There were a wide array of flavors to choose from, they even had sugar free and non dairy options. You pick a cup which comes in a couple of sizes, then pick your frozen yogurt flavors; there were so many to choose from. After, this is where the fun begins, mix and match all the toppings you like; also so many to choose from. Once done, put your cup on the machine to weigh it, then pay and enjoy the treat. They also have ice cream, milkshakes, smoothies, and fruit bubble teas. Overall, a great place to get a fun treat.

The boba tea counter had one worker who was exceptionally nice and they had boba being made fresh so 9 minutes for our drinks nbd.

My tea was decidedly not sweet enough for me and the fresh boba nice texture but flavorless. It is mid tier bubble tea.

Upon entering, we noticed that we were the only…read moreones there.. the shop was pretty empty but (I assume, the owner) quickly came out and greeted us. I informed her that I'd need a few minutes as this was our first time. She gave us a run down of what they offered and said that they can essentially make any custom drinks you desire! She was very kind and gave us some time to decide what to get. I love a good strawberry matcha so I gave that one a shot and my fiancé had to judge their brown sugar boba. We also went with half a dozen of their mochi donuts to try. It was a gamble as we came around 2pm and slightly worried that they were going to turn out stale (bad experience from another store where they were in fact, so stale). She was the only one working so I sparked some conversation as she made our drinks. This shop is a little over a year old so I am glad it's still thriving! Our drinks quickly came out and were pretty tasty. The strawberries in my matcha had pieces of strawberry in the syrup and wasn't too overly sweet. Pretty refreshing! My fiancé's brown sugar was also on the less sweet side which I can appreciate. The boba wasn't the best, as it wasn't quite chewy.. our teeth just sank into them with not much to chew afterwards. Now, based on the yelp reviews, it doesn't seem like they change out the flavors of mochi donuts. There were probably around 8 different flavors. To my surprised, they were still so soft and fluffy!! The outside wasn't too crisp as it probably sat a bit, but they were not stale at all. We had some the day after as well, and they were still so so soft and fluffy! The flavors were pretty light and not too overpowering. I am just pretty satisfied with the texture of the donuts. Overall, the owner was so sweet and kind and offered great treats. I will gladly return in the future to try other things!

It's located in the Old Avon Village plaza. There were plenty of parking. The interior was nice; it looked like it used to be a frozen yogurt spot. The hostess/waitress was nice. Unfortunately, there is no kids menu, but we were able to get a small bowl to share our noodles with our toddlers. The food came out slowly, considering we were only 1 out of 3 tables. We ordered pork and shrimp spring rolls as an appetizer; it was very good and fresh with the peanut butter sauce. For my meal, I ordered the Pho House Special; it's $20.95 and has rice noodles, medium rare beef, brisket, and meatballs. This bowl was huge! The flavor was good but the broth was very oily. I added more hoison, chili oil, and siracha for more flavor. We didn't have any sauces and napkins, so we had to flag down the waitress a couple of times. Also, they never refilled our waters. I noticed the prices were very high compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I've been to. With everything factored together, I gave them 3.5 stars total.

Boba tea makes my world go round and round…read more King Fu Tea was founded in 2010, in Queens, NY. There are over 350 franchised stores in the U.S. Their process is, picking the most quality tea leaves, brewing it at the correct temperature, and steeping it for the right amount of time. The tea leaves are from Taiwan and it's brewed every 3 hours; the boba is cooked every 2 hours. The strawberry lemonade and orange green tea are made from freshly squeezed juices. On this visit at the WeHa location, I was walking by and had to pop in. I ordered the small milk tea with grass jelly and normal sweetness. I loved everything about the drink. They had so many flavors to choose from, I was having analysis paralysis. There were signs to download the Kung Fu Tea app for discounts. There were plenty of seating and the place looked clean. The customer service was good. I look forward to going back to try out their other menu items.

I think the lady forgot the yogurt part because it came back clear but she was hustling the store by herself and I didn't care that much to correct it. I didn't add any toppings to my drink but as she was making it she suggested a few toppings and included them in my drink complimentary to try. I really appreciated her hard work and trying to satisfy the customer! This looks like a fairly new boba shop so it was pretty slow but I don't mind supporting a smaller business.

I walked inside, there was no one else inside, but the employee and myself. This place specializes in smoothies, since they have a pretty large menu of a variety of different smoothies to choose from. There were about four açaí bowls on the menu. I decided to go with the Health Nut bowl. The space inside isn't huge, but there's a few places for sitting, bar stools or at the tables. They also have an artificial fireplace burning. My açaí bowl was ready pretty quickly. I had it in my car. The base was made of a refreshing and cool blend of açaí, strawberry, blueberry and banana. It had a nice berry color to it. It was topped with granola, almonds, peanut butter and goji berries. This was so delicious, and a very generous size. I couldn't finish it in one go. I didn't pick the best time to have this on a particularly cold day, holding the cold bowl wasn't very pleasant on my already cold hands. I was just wishing and imagining it was 80 degrees, and I'm cooling off with my tasty açaí bowl. While this was a great and healthy pick, I wish they offered a few more varieties of açaí bowls.
