Milk tea and popcorn chicken combo
Joyce T.

Great service staffs friendly great location and clean washroom. Drinks are excellent, I had the combo drinks and food for $9.90 which's a great treat. Popcorn chicken is awesome 1st time guest remember to scan the QR code and update your phone number to get a free drink next visit

Lime Honey Green Tea
Guadalupe R.

I love a warm comforting hot tea. The lime honey tea had a perfume taste that took time for me get used to. I wouldn't order it again but I would try a different tea.

Teahouse Tapioca and Tea Interior

It's yum at first sip! After a workout I was ready for a nice Boba tea and what better place than The Teahouse on my way home. This location (on Rice Blvd) has a moderate amount of traffic but private lot for parking. Nestled in between Insomnia Cookies and The Meltwich Food Co., this cute little spot has an amazing assortment of teas, so much to choose from, you can't go wrong. I selected the Passionfruit Ice Blend with Rasberry Popping Boba, so good and so refreshing - the perfect "after work out" treat. I mean, why not? This walk up location is nice and quaint with a colorful branded wall and accent shelving. Offering enough indoor seating to sit and relax with friends while enjoying your beverage. Unfortunately, there's no outdoor patio seating but where this place sits if you want to walk around and take in the scenery and people watch, you can. The Teahouse is fast with their service and they welcomed me with a warm greeting when I walked inside . I appreciate how patient they were with me while at the counter, as a first-timer, until I settled on what I wanted. Priced well for what I got, this is a place I will visit again. If you're looking for a Boba spot? Check out The Teahouse! Enjoy!

Came here and got fries and popcorn chicken! Which were good! I would come back and do their combo again. Enough for two people to share as a snack! Plus I got the taro with tapioca. Service was great people were nice and quick and easy with the order. This place was great to study, play games, hang out with friends and it was good to be there.

Thai tea with boba
Perry F.

This is a small tea shop with prices similar to others. The tea came out really fast and tasted good. My only complaint was that there were people in the store soliciting for $20 donations. They were very pushy, and it was time-consuming trying to get out the door without being rude to them.

Honey Green tea
Brittany H.

Ronnie was extremely accommodating and very knowledgeable and the varies of Texas that teahouse has to offer. This was an AMAZING First time Experience! I'll definitely be back! I cant wait to explore the tea menu! Being the tea Lover that I am, I love that they offer many HOT Teas. Thank you a mill Mr. Ronnie.

Egg rolls

The atmosphere is very friendly and inviting! The service is fast and the food is so good!

Popcorn Chicken
Thomas P.

Pretty good thai tea here. The boba feels nice too. Freshly made hot popcorn chicken. The teahouse combo is pretty worth for a drink + food item. Guys behind the counter were chill.

SO MANY OPTIONS THAT ARE HEALTHY FOR YOUR BELLY! I tasted the Peach Cream Blend and the consistency was A1. Tasted like a milky slushy. Dont knock it until you try it. Also, great recommendations and help from the employees. My new to-go to.

Coconut Cream Tea
Gustavo R.

TLDR: Great spot, great hours, decent boba, but not the cleanest nor the quickest. The Teahouse is a consistent spot in each location I've been to. This spot is super clutch as it's located in a great spot (rice / other restaurants & shopping nearby); however the parking can be a pain when busy. They're up late! You can rely on The Teahouse as a sweet treat for your late night cravings. My main issue with my visit is that it took roughly 20+ minutes to get one order of a boba tea in after only two or three people ahead of me.. I've been to other spots where 10 people are in line and get taken care of with a shorter staff in under 10 minutes. The interior looks a little messy as well. You can tell cleanliness is the last priority. Get your tea & stick around if you have a crew. Probably not the best spot for studying anymore.

The Teahouse in Rice Village is deserving of a higher overall rating. The drinks are well-made and the service is over attentive. From the extensive drink list, my favorites include the Almond Cream & Thai Green Tea.

Reviews are mixed. Many highlight the friendly atmosphere, spacious seating, and a broad drink selection. The food, including popcorn chicken, is also well-liked.

The tea wasn't strong enough. I wasn't impressed with the tea. The service was good. The ambiance was pleasant.

While TSAOCAA (朝茶) has had a presence around the country, this is the first and only location in…read moreHouston proper. The West U area already lacked a proper bubble tea option, making its arrival that much more satisfying. Sadly, during the heat of summer just after their second anniversary, it abruptly closed. While the shop was small, they still had a number of tables for small groups and solo action. Given the tables were completely translucent glass, the plain acoustic tile ceilings with florescent lighting and very standard bathroom sign made the place feel like an office more than a cafe. The bright orange logo side wall was a nice touch, but still presented a contrasting vibe that was hard to shake. The drinks did not fare much better, but were at least consistent. The roasted oolong milk tea and slushes were always the go-to and the swirls and fruit teas were the ones to avoid. The food was a bit all over the place, from "cubie breads" to mochi donuts and fries. They worked as easy snacks on the go, but never overshadowed the drinks. Customer service was always a crapshoot, thus like many bubble tea cafes, the self-ordering kiosk was easy to consider. Prices were semi-reasonable given the neighborhood, which was a semi-win in itself. While I do hope for the best of this location, the one thing that still presents a challenge is the limited parking. Since it's a shared strip of only a couple of spots for each business, there is little street parking to compensate for the limited front side parking. For fans of the TSAOCAA brand and looking for a fix, the Katy store is the only remaining Houston-area location.

I've ordered from here multiple times for delivery to the Medical Center, and the drinks always arrive fresh, cold, and never watered down. I've even ordered from Too Good to Go for their grab bag, and received a variety of "surprise drinks." I appreciate that you can adjust the sugar and ice levels, and the drinks are consistently not overly sweet. There's not a ton of boba competition in the West U area, but this spot is definitely top tier. Bonus: they offer rose tea, which is surprisingly hard to find outside of Chinatown. Definitely a go-to for quality boba!

You can order anything from a healthy salad or juice, to a pita sandwich to a burger. The mediterranean staples, like hummus and pita are top notch, with the pita in particular being remarkably fluffy. At first, I was confused with the gyro salads and pitas including extra veggies like mushrooms, which might turn off "purists" looking for the normal recipe. I go here when I want something tasty but less greasy than the typical alternative. I leave satisfied but not feeling gross because the ingredients seem fresh. It's kind of like a healthy restaurant that also serves "junk food" that's not overly "junky." The restaurant is very clean and the staff are friendly. You order at the counter but they bring the food to your table and you're not expected to clear it yourself - my pet peeve when I tip. The prices are fair given the quality. You can easily get a solid lunch for under $20. When I crave a traditional gyro I frankly prefer places like Niko Nikos, but if I want to be reasonable I choose Island Grill. Maybe I'm way off base here, and I like this place, but I consider it quasi-fusion, with a "health slant" but in a good way.

I definitely got the complementary ice cream while I waited for my food to be prepared The server was super helpful with me picking out an option and I also got the green juice and that was pretty good as well. I will go back here and when I went to do a review and search for this I realized now that this is a chain it's good. I have absolutely added this to my list of places to revisit.
