Da best.
Josh G.

This is a much needed/belated review that needs to happen right now. You see I've been to YAAAS TEA in Stony Brook many many times and because my first trip was a Yelp Elite Event, I completely forgot to actually write up a regular review after that. Welp, there's not much to say other than the usual fantastical info that comes from a place like this. Now if you don't know about bubble tea, these days it's best to get acquainted by hitting up YT and this Stony Brook location is the perfect place to start. Located in a strip mall right in the heart of so many things, it might be initially overlooked, but just know YAAAS is one of many Long Island storefronts. There's nothing fancy about the interior and it's mostly just some bubble tea wording and a few tables, but the place is kept clean and there are several ordering screens which is always nice as it makes it easy for you to figure out what you want. What do you want? Bubbles! Well actually, not every drink at YAAAS needs to have boba, but if you're going to get bubbles, this is by far THE BEST spot to do it. Why? They make them fresh every hour. This ensures that you're never eating gooey, chalky, bubbles that I've unfortunately come across at other places. At YT you're destined for high quality. Plus the drinks themselves are delicious, whether they're milk teas, regular teas, or even their coffee varieties. Lastly, the staff here seems to be pretty friendly and helpful which is always nice, and as a whole, YAAAS has a strong understanding of doing things for the customer. They have daily deals, a reward system, and you can even find a nice Costco gift card deal at a few locations. It doesn't get much better than that. Overall, YAAAS TEA is just so legit. There are several other bubble tea spots around the area near this location, but if you want the real deal, come here. I'll continue doing that until my stomach is full of boba!

I was leaving AMC theater and saw Yaaas Teas open? Be still my heart... Now Yaaas Teas is a big deal on Long Island. Kelly Zhou, a well respected business leader has opened countless businesses across Long Island. I asked her at a Yelp event, come to Stony Brook! Well, today that request has been answered. Yaaas Tea has opened (Almost) and is ready to serve! I must point out, Yaaas Tea makes a superior product. Freshly made boba (hourly!) and drink combinations that will have you coming back again and again. I walk in and see Kelly behind the counter training the employees. She glances up and comes to say hi. I give her a fist bump and wish her congratulations on her newest location. She introduces me to the manager / owners of the Stony Brook location. I tell them I'll be here the most because I live in the area. I'm going to order my usual drink but I'm recommended to try something new. I chose the Iced Caramel Milk Tea . It's made in record time! Now I have to shake it?? I start doing a dance, everyone laughs. I say my goodbyes and wish everyone much success in their latest venture. Long Island, this is a hometown business that's growing. Yaaas Tea makes a damn good drink. I highly recommend getting their app and stopping in to try their amazing products.

Welcome Yaaas Tea to Stony Brook! It was really nice to meet Chiruta & Nimisha Patel and Family. They are very welcoming and friendly. It's next to AMC Movie theater and Meet Noodle. Plenty of parking spots, plus they open early. We came during their first day of their soft opening and yesterday on their grand opening. Missed the ribbon cutting ceremony...boo! We got to try 2 variations of the croffles samples: banana nutella and egg with cheese. The banana nutella was good, though I was surprised I liked the egg and cheese more. I ordered a taro milk tea with less ice and less sugar yesterday. It was very refreshing. Will come back next time to say Hi.

Came here for some bubble tea. The staff was really friendly. You can order from tablets and customize the drinks however you want. The passionfruit lemonade was pretty good. The earl gray milk tea i had ask for 50% sugar and it was still really sweet. I wonder if they accidentally added the full amount instead. I love the take out bag. I notice they had cookies and croofles that can be made to order. Hopefully next time i will get to try those.

Iced Vanilla Latte, Iced Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso BOBO

Grand Opening today! Very excited to have Yaaas Tea in Stony Brook! Very clean, modern aesthetic. Photo op friendly. The staff was very nice and greeted us as we walked in. We ordered the Iced Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso BOBO, and the Iced Vanilla Latte. Both delicious, glad they're here! Excited to be regulars !

I got the Brown Sugar BOBO and it was great ! The boba was soft,chewy, and warm + the milk and cream hit the spot. The staff was friendly and very helpful.

I was welcomed by the staff as soon as I walked in. It was a great atmosphere and the young lady that helped me with my order was extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. The young man that made my drinks did a great job. The drinks tasted great, I finished the taro bubble tea before I remembered to take a picture.

Brow Sugar Shaken Espresso Bobo

Super friendly service and tasty drinks. Fast service and drinks are made to order. I recommend the brown sugar espresso bobo and the mango milk tea with coconut milk! Boba is the best around. Clean and modern shop. Great addition to the neighborhood!

Brown sugar bobo

Went to their opening. Excited that we're getting more bubble places opening up in the area. The brown sugar drink was quite good and creamy, though I'd probably go with less sugar next time rather than regular sugar. The boba itself is very chewy and obviously fresh and well/made. My only critique of this place would be their menu options, which was quite limited and did not have a lot of the drinks I'm used to seeing (I.e. oolong milk tea, thai tea, etc). Also did not have a ton of fruit tea options/toppings like the jellies. Drinks seem to be a bit pricier too compared to others in the area ($7+starting price before topping additions). Overall I think the quality is there, but I would definitely like to see more options on the menu!

Bubble tea flavors are ones that you will not find elsewhere. For example a kiwi flavored tea. Sounds strange but was delightful! Also tried their spring rolls, 2 piece. Beautifully executed and the sauce is was dynamite. Please don't try to buy that same type of peanut sauce in store, you will be disappointed. Have not yet tried more of their food dishes, but if the spring rolls are any sign then their food will be astounding. It's like there is an old Thai lady working in the back cooking up her secret recipes. Front of the house staff isn't the friendliest, well at least not the guy that was there when I went. But who cares! It's all about the teas and the food. Please visit and share your experience!

My last visit (Friday afternoon) I ordered a Medium Wintermelon Milk Tea (you can get it without the milk), Grilled Chicken Garlic Noodles and a Grilled Shrimp Rice Bowl. Everything was delicious and very flavorful though I felt the Garlic Noodles were a bit on the saltier side and the Wintermelon Milk Tea was a bit too sweet (and I have a sweet tooth). There were a lot of flavorful chicken pieces and the shrimp came with about 7-8 pieces, also very flavorful. They have 3 different sauces that I was given since I was eating there and just returned it to the counter once done. My favorite of the 3 was the more liquidy one though they all tasted great. The place is located in a strip mall with a lot of free parking. There's some seating inside and one small table outside. It's spacious and clean. They have great background music playing and their unisex bathroom is spacious and clean as well. The food came out in a reasonable time and the staff (I'm assuming maybe the owners) were also very pleasant.

I ordered with the friendly employee at the cashier though there is a self serve kiosk. There was seating inside and it was clean and bright. In addition to their drinks, they also have other items for sale such as reusable cups and plushies. I was indecisive so I asked her what's the most popular menu item and she told me the Pearl Milk Tea so I ordered that. They do not offer customizable sugar level or ice amounts like most bubble tea spots but I have to say the drink tasted decent, even the boba was kind of sweet and chewy (how I like it). Overall though, the drink wasn't amazing or anything.

As we were on our way out of the Smithhaven mall exiting via the Macy's store, a cute little…read morestorefront bustling with activity caught my eye. When I asked my daughter, "when did that get there?" She responded, "it's new and I hear it's pretty good. We should try it if you're in the mood for bubble tea." Once inside, there is nice seating if you are looking to sit a bit. Looking up at the many choices on the board, the folks behind the counter immediately asked if we were ready to order or needed assistance. As I inquired about the differences between the drinks I was torn between, my knowledgeable server thoughtfully explained the drinks and how I could also customize my sweetness level. The high level of customer service for a mall shop was quite refreshing and more of a reason I would come back. I ultimately chose Sweet Sunshine: mangos and lychee mixed with jasmine green tea, with lychee jelly. If you're in the Smithhaven mall looking for a bubble tea, I'd recommend stopping in and giving Black Pearl Bubble Tea a try. My drink was served up quickly with a smile. Upon receipt, it looked so yummy and I was so excited to try it that I forgot to take a photo. It wasn't till I was half way through and in the car that I remembered.

Since my roommate does not speak Chinese, we communicated entirely in English throughout the visit, and the staff at the front counter also spoke to us in English. I have been to this restaurant many times before and have usually left an 18% tip. This was my roommate's first visit. After we finished our meal, my roommate paid the bill but did not add a tip. After noticing that no tip had been left, the staff member at the front counter came directly to our table and asked my roommate, "Cash tips?" My roommate seemed surprised and responded, "No."This interaction already made us feel very uncomfortable and pressured. In addition, both my roommate and I felt that the service had not been particularly good. After that, the staff member shouted toward the kitchen in Chinese: "These two are freeloading! They didn't leave a tip!" Since my roommate does not understand Chinese, he did not know what was being said. However, I understood the comment and found it highly inappropriate, unprofessional, and disrespectful toward customers. 2026 年 5 月 31 号晚上7点左右,我跟室友来 Tao\'s Bao 吃饭,室友请客。室友不会说中文,我们全程都用英文沟通的,前台也跟我们用英语。我已经来了很多次,以前都给 18% 小费。室友第一次来,饭毕,付了款没有给小费。前台看到没给小费,直接跑到桌子前面问我室友 cash tips? 我室友愣了一下,说 No。这个举动已经让我们感觉非常不舒服,感到压力,而且我跟室友都觉得服务也不怎么好。然后,这个前台就用中文冲后厨大喊:"这俩人吃独食!不给小费!"
