Sakura Milk Oolong Tea
Carina H.

The Osmathus Milk Oolong Tea is probably my new favorite flavor. The taste isn't floral, and there's a subtle sweetness that I can't describe. The boba wasn't as well-cooked this time, so some of the boba was perfectly chewy while other balls were harder. On a Sunday night, there wasn't anyone else around, so I got my order almost immediately. The peace and quiet of the store was nice for some later night boba.

Entering the boba cafe, we were exposed to a bunch of toy machines directly in front of us with a kiosk machine. The plants decors, to our immediate left, creates a comforting atmosphere. I loved how cute and unique this cafe is and it made me feel like a kid again. I tried the Double Purple Bliss with brown sugar amble bubble, purple rice & ube paste for the first time and I loved it! Definitely coming back to try different drinks.

Cute little boba place on bell blvd right near the LIRR station. It's small and cozy with a couple of little nooks with seating areas. The cashier was helpful in navigating the menu and giving recommendations. I got the (non alcoholic) peach tea mojito with boba. The peach tea mojito is carbonated and very refreshing with fresh lime and mint in the drink. The boba is well made, soft, and not tough to chew. The Mango tea slush was delicious and not very sweet. It was not icy like some other boba places. Would definitely come again!

Sooo good! Loved everything that we got! We were walking the blvd and saw it and the atmosphere is quaint while the service is great! Next time I'm in the area, I'll be back!

There are quite a few bubble tea spots on Bell Blvd these days, so I think you have to bring it to join the pack. Kudos to Tsaocaa for offering a generous B1G1 special for their grand opening. It was quite a savings. The teas were less than ideal. I didn't think my order was correct, tried to ask clarifying questions and the employee just slid it back to me. They offer a wide variety but could not really help Specify the ice/ sweetness ration like other places do. This resulted in very sweet teas that weren't flavorful. The donuts look promising! I'll stick to my other black and pink spot down the block...

Drinks waiting for collection.

Great service, nice people, good drinks and donuts. Trendy decor, good atmosphere. We've been twice and will keep coming.

Newly opened. BOGO any drinks til 8/8/22 as per cashier despite the store poster says 8/5 only. Cash only. My order was wrong. I asked for no sugar and given regular sugar despite I explained it again after seeing on the receipt. They were not busy but drink took longer than normal wait time. We ordered: - peach oolong tea with nata jelly: Good peach and tea flavor but too heavy in taste in syrup instead of fresh food. - Jasmine with green tea with bubbles: Bubbles ok, good jasmine flavor, milk taste was smooth but they gave me wrong order. I wanted no sugar but ended up regular sugar. My friend picked up the order. I was home already when I noticed so I didn't request a change. - Mango coconut slush: fate fruit flavor. Not strong enough. - pineapple passion fruit tea: lots of ingredients, best of the 4. But it will be better if less syrup taste. Overall, it's understandable that all the mistakes it made due to new opening. They are offering BOGO til 8/8/22 so I don't mind the mistakes. Just be patient and check your order before leaving. I will go back during promotion period to give it another try. Friendly service.

Yet another bubble tea place has joined the Bell Blvd scene! What is interesting about this place is the sheer variety of what it offers: an extensive menu of bubble tea options plus mochi donuts and other food options like HK bubble waffles, fries and wings. On top of this, they have indoor seating. The drink menu is extensive but caffeine free options and dairy alternatives were not clearly visible or marked on the menu (Teazzi is good about this). Of course you can ask the staff, but I personally like it when I can just pick things out quickly. Right now, as part of their opening, they are offering BOGO on all their drinks, so it's a great time to try out different flavors. The drinks I have tried so far have been mild - not too sweet and the toppings have been decent. The indoor seating feels a little bit cluttered in the small space but a nice to have when it's just two people sitting down for a drink. Edit: So when I ask clarifying questions the answers are vague. Noticed the drinks are like 80% ice with little drink. Be sure to ask for less ice. When taking out mochi donut, it's put in a plastic baggie so the frosting gets smeared everywhere. Not ideal.

TSAOCAA is a bubble tea shop in Bayside with various locations franchised throughout the US. My favorite drink here is the purple sweet potato milk tea. Unfortunately they don't always carry it. The drinks are always fresh and made to order. One improvement that can be made is cleaner cups because there is sugary sticky residue when I pick up my cup sometimes. This used to be a mochi donut ship but they extended their menu to offer Chinese bbq and street snacks as well.

Mei H.

Always pass by this bubble tea place and finally trying it for the first time. Found out they have egg waffle which is surprising! Their drinks are alright but matcha egg waffle are pretty good!

Mochi donuts
Radhika K.

The mochi donuts were delicious and there were so many flavors too. Bubble tea was also delicious although a bit on the sweeter side. Definitely like the vibe of this tea shop as it's different than most bubble tea shops. Definitely would come again! The staff was extremely nice, only one person was working at the time there. But it wasn't crowded so we got our drinks and food instantly.

BBQ lamb
Lynn L.

I gave this Tsaocaa three chances! I won't be coming back! Don't waste your money! Most of their food is prepared using seasoning packets and very few frozen ingredients, the portions are small, but the prices are not cheap and the drinks are all additives and flavors, if you want Chinese food you can go to hot pot on the left, at the very least you can get fresh food. If you want a drink, you can go to the milk tea shop on their right and you can get real tea and milk. Don't wasting your money here.Look the picture, the BBQ gluten, which was completely different from the picture on the menu, could be considered a level of fraud. My brother wanted to try it because the menu showed a large spiral gluten, but what they actually gave me was like a regular sliced rice cake.The grilled lamb, lamb is only the size of my fingernail,3 for $5, the taste is ordinary, very uneconomical, the only good thing is that this is real lamb.

Cozy nook by the window and plants

The mochi donuts are so good!! My favorite is the almond chocolate! The second time we visited, we tried the peach oolong tea and coconut mango slush and they were both delicious and refreshing! Inside was very welcoming, I loved sitting in the cozy nook by the window and plants. The woman behind the counter was also really friendly and helpful!

Delicious chicken and sandwiches, always served piping hot and fresh. Friendly professional service…read morewith a smile. Great value too (for $50 you can get a family combo that includes a variety of sandwiches, wraps, wings, A WHOLE CHICKEN, fries, nuggets, cheese sticks, and a large soda!). Aside from the soft drinks, they also serve hot/iced espresso and coffee. Seriously, don't sleep on the espresso drinks... you can save a few "bucks" by coming here instead and supporting this small business (hehe, see what I did there?). Clean indoor seating is available (small tables that fit about 4 adults). The girl at the counter is always super sweet. She kindly covered the coffee sipper with a sticker that had a sweet note on it. )This Americano will help me through the rest of my hospital shift!) I will continually return!

I was really excited to try this place after seeing their sign on 108st for several weeks…read more The owner of this place is really nice, and great with kids. My toddler likes her a lot and wants to play with her and visit every so often. The food across the board is delicious. I have pretty much tried everything here except a few of the appetizers and the pistol legs. The only item that I don't particularly like is the pumpkin pie, while it's tasty and has a nice texture I don't really taste any pumpkin. I hope this place stays open would really be a good staple and some added variety to the restaurants available in the few blocks of stores located in this section of 108 street.

Cuisine: 9 Service: 8…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 9 Overall: 9 Just a really solid local bar to enjoy some good food while watching a game. When they first remodeled from a specialty sandwich shop to a craft beer pub, I was quite disappointed. Now I can't get my favorite chopped cheese or sriracha egg sandwich in the neighborhood anymore. However, I come to realize that having a dependable spot for an excellent burger is a pretty nice too. They do a great classic smash burger with a crispy crust and juicy beef. The toppings are always fresh and the bread is extremely fluffy. While the brioche bun is delicious, I may have a slight preference for the sesame seed bun of the Stack Mac. You really can't go wrong with any of their burger offerings. Obviously, a pub needs some tasty fried foods to go with their nice selection of craft beers. Thankfully, they do. The tater tots and onion rings are both really fantastic. Only thing currently still needs a bit of work is their chicken wings. Not bad for roasted wings, but I wish they were fried. During playoff season, I have come watched games while enjoying their offerings. It's never too busy, which makes it perfect for me. This little craft bar is definitely a hidden gem and I'm happy by me.

This place has a pretty good burger. Granted, it's a smash burger, but it's still very filling…read more The OG Stacked has melted cheese, 2 smashed patties stacked on a bun with lettuce, tomato, onions and pickles. It had simple yet perfect seasoning, a little grease in the paper it came in. It was like the burger from The Menu, in the best way possible. Didn't try their fries yet, but hopefully they pair well with their excellent burger.

It depresses the hell out of me. ​They also have a picture of the menu explaining what some might consider a user friendly way to pick your food and assorted preferenced. It goes somethinglike this. 'Step 1: Choose Your Chicken,Step 2: Choose Your Batter, Step 3: Choose Your Sauces. It's so damn complicated to me. They make you go through all these steps just to get a piece of fried bird. They've got all kinds of crispy wings, some are glossy, some are glazed and sticky, choose your drumsticks or wings. I really like their fried dumplings too and their little free side dishes of radish cubes and coleslaw. Come on your birthday, show identification and you'll get a Happy Birthday sign right on your free basket of chicken legs, or was it a free chicken? I cant recall exactly, but yiu cant leave with it and you cant give it to uour friend, I haveknownsome that tried and i think thats uncool. Imagine getting fried chicken for your birthday, from someone you dont know, it's enough to make you feel like someone out there cares.

Even though the sauce on the Rasta pasta was delicious, the fish had the perfect amount of batter, and the plantain boats had just the right amount of sweetness, it's still difficult to decide which was my favorite! The place is small but the flavors and portions are big. There is limited seating available and seems like most people take their orders to go.
