Tsaocaa

It's a great spot to enjoy your bubble tea, it has a lot of spots to sit, and many drink options. I love their drinks, and their to-go bag design, it is very cool! The bubble waffle is just okay, it tastes like a normal waffle, not like the Hong Kong waffles that I have tried from other countries.Overall is a good bubble tea spot!

Watermelon foam cheese drink. Refreshing for a hot summer day. Nothing special.The facility needed a little cleaning as it looked like it had been mobbed hours before but the store has just opened?Pro tip: Close to Black Cat Alley- take your drink and mosey around.

Tsaocaa is a hidden gem. It's just up the street from a lot of good businesses. The place is super clean and they open promptly at 12:00 PM. Ordering is super easy. There's a touch pad that you can order on. The food came out super quick. I had to let my chicken sandwich cool because I definitely almost burned my mouth. The pineapple green tea was a nice choice for me. In terms of appearance, I was surprised to see more than my boba floating around but I enjoyed having lil pineapple chews in my drink. I'm not sure what the white strips were but the drink was good.

Located next to the Oriental Theater, Tsaocaa is the perfect spot for a bubble tea and maybe a snack. The window lures you in with popular selections from the fairly extensive menu. There's a selection of teas and smoothies and also fried chicken and bubble waffles. The space is clean and there's a seating area where you can settle for awhile. I've taken a book before and lingered with my drink.You order at the counter and they call out your number when it's ready. I was impressed with the purple potato milk tea which was the first thing I tried. There were real chunks of purple potato and purple rice and I think some red beans. There was a lot going on but the result was harmonious and a little surprising. I also liked that you can choose your level of sweetness. I prefer my drinks lightly sweetened. I thought the tea was still plenty sweet. I came back the next day and got the same thing because I kept thinking about it, but I have also tried the brown sugar black tea with bubble and it was good too.I have not tried any of the food yet but it seems like the kind of things that would complement the tea and hit the spot after a trip to the movies or any of the other activities in the area.

This is my first time hearing about them, but apparently Tsaocaa has 50+ locations. We just happened to walk by, so I decided to order a drink. I went with their Signature Ruby Black Milk Tea w/ bubble. The tea flavor wasn't too strong. They also sell fried chicken here.

I came in with a couple friends not knowing what I wanted to sum it up, they allowed me to get a new one because I didn't know what I had ordered for my boba. (This probably happen all the time,) they were very nice, positive energy all around. My order Strawberry milk tea w/ green tea And fries The red cap is the one that incorrectly ordered.

A new boba + Korean Fried Chicken + Hong Kong style egg waffles place! Owners are Chinese and they know how to do KFC and egg waffles right haha. The packaging is so cute!We got hot and spicy and soy garlic (classic KFC flavors) for fried chicken and they were delicious. We got delivery so there was like a 40-min prep + drive from fresh and hot. Still very good and we could taste the crispy skins! So that really meant sth. My Hong Kong style matcha egg waffles and 0% sugar lactose free purple potato milk swirl were also very delicious. Highly recommend the 0% sugar purple potato milk swirl - rich, creamy, fresh & full of good purple potato flavor! The matcha egg waffles - you have to eat them when they are hot so that they remain crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside! But still, I like the flavor and because I am actually from that area, I can tell it's pretty authentic even though the delivered ones that I got cooled down already.Teas: Hubby reported that the signature Ruby black milk tea with boba was also pretty good. The tapioca was chewy and fresh! I took a sip and agreed!Sakura milk tea: we were both curious about what Sakura (aka cherry blossom in Japanese) could taste like. It turned out to be like light floral green tea with a slight hint of strawberry. We liked it!Rose oolong milk tea: Rich and full of rose aroma. Also a good tea to choose!

I've been here twice this week. Their taro milk is delicious and they don't use powder--it's real taro. The drink is not artificially sweet, it's perfectly balanced with the milk and the chewy boba. I noticed the boba is lighter in color than other places, so I was expecting the consistency to be off-but it was pleasantly chewy and kept it's consistency as I enjoyed my drink. I hate when it's over cooked and gets soggy before you finish your drink, and again, it was not a concern here. The only reason I deducted a star was it is pretty oily in there. I know they make fried chicken sandwiches however, the scent lingers and sticks to you. Both times I've been in, I've come out smelling like the chicken/oil? It really penetrates your clothing, and I'm wondering if it's a ventilation issue? Again, it doesn't affect the taste of their boba, but it made for a slightly unpleasant experience sitting inside. I would've stepped outside but it was late and there was a lot of police activity outside. I brought someone with me and they also mentioned the lack of ventilation in the building. Overall, drop in for boba. Consider stepping out or going for a stroll if you have mind the smell.

I wanted to like this place and I will give them another try, but honestly, the fried chicken was so greasy I was sick most of the night. The waffles are delightful and the chicken tasted soooo good as I was eating it, but it was super greasy. Maybe it's meant to be enjoyed after heavy drinking or before heavy drinking, but it hurt me. I mean, you can smell the oil when you walk by it which is somewhat off-putting.We ordered online seeking appetizers but the only appetizer-like thing they had was french fries, which we will try next time. Most of the menu is teas and boba teas and other drinks. Anyway, our order was ready when promised and the service was nice. The interior was cute and bright and they have a kiosk from which you can order if you don't want to talk to a person or there's a line. It seemed a little pricey for what you get.Bottom line, will try again. Probably not going with the fried chicken but I may try a chicken sandwich to see if the bread helps with the grease.

Service was good but the boba was terrible. Tasted so watered down and the tapioca wasn't cooked well.
