Chachago

My favorite boba brand! You have got to try the Taiwan milk tea (75% sugar). Can't go to other places after Chachago The popcorn chicken is also good.

I stopped in for a quick snack and ordered the fried tofu. For $7 bucks, the portion was quite generous, and the tofu was fried to perfection. I prefer my tofu cubes to be cut up a little smaller so I have "more" to eat. Whoever made up the tofu here knew the perfect bite-sized cube to cut the tofu. It was *perfection*. There is pepper and chili powder for you to season your fried snacks to suit your taste.There was only one person working in the front so I don't know if that's why the service was so slow. I didn't mind since I wasn't in a rush. If you're in a hurry, I would order ahead.I didn't order a drink this time but look forward to trying their milk tea next time. For those who can't have dairy, they also offer almond milk as an option . There are a few drinks that have dairy already mixed in so those ones wouldn't be vegan-friendly. The girl working today was knowledgable about the menu and what could be modified, etc. The place had pretty cute decor, great for taking pics for the gram. The wall had a beautiful (fake) flower arrangement in blue and white. There is a bench that stretches all along the wall and lined with adorable cushions that are too cute to sit on but they defintely have been flattened by guests! Some customers who ordered before me ordered some mango smoothie drinks which looked really tasty. The totally walked off looking pleased with their order. I'll need to add that to the order next time.

(Updates after going a couple times)I wanted to like this place but after going a couple times, unfortunately it's not one of my favorites. Located in a shopping complex by Mowry blvd, a bit tricky to find but just follow google maps lol Sadly, the Korean market next to it closed down (such a good place for gimbaps and banchans!) which was the other reason to be in the plaza for me. The shop is really small, can hardly fit 4-5 people in there without it feeling too crowded. I usually just wait outside the shop after I order. I've tried a couple more drinks after my first visit and honestly, I was not impressed. The matcha was entirely too bitter and the taro tasted super watered down that I didn't even get to finish it. Also the service isn't too great. I never get a hi or hello then they don't even call my number out and just leave the drink at the table. Sorry guys, I tried :(

Every visit thus far to Chachago has been met with friendly staff, delicious food, great drinks, and decent pricesWe ordered via the kiosk and stuck to our favorites but did notice some new drinks they were promoting. Will need to consider them next time around. Anyway, this order added to our rewards total for a future visit!The brown sugar drinks are already sweet without sugar and as a fan of this series, I ordered the one with boba and coffee jelly. It was tasty and the coffee jelly gave that slight bitterness you get with coffee flavored items. It did seem like there were more coffee jelly than boba - would have been nice to have them more equal or an option to modify the percentages. The boba was chewy - I would have liked them a little bit more round and solid but they were fine in the shape they were in.This time around, the snacks took a bit longer to cook but within about 10 minutes, we got our popcorn chicken with basil (you can choose to add or opt out of them) and was chowing down on its hot and crispy bits.This mall is slowly becoming more quiet with the departure of some stores and so parking isn't too bad. With the newer builders just across the street, however, I suspect there will be a bit more competition in the coffee/tea space. Hopefully ChaChaGo can continue to thrive especially through their snack platters and happy hour specials. If you're on the go and need a caffeine or sugar boost, consider making a stop at ChaChaGo. If you're hungry, perhaps order ahead or be prepared to wait a bit as their small kitchen may not be able to churn as quickly as their drink orders. But hey, at least you'll have something to sip on while you wait!

Came here on a Friday night and there was no line. The menu was extensive and everything looked delicious! I ordered the mango twister with boba and my boyfriend got the lychee Yakult smoothie. The mango smoothie was good it was an ice blended drink but I think I was kinda hoping for more of a smoothie so I was a little disappointed. My boyfriend's lychee drink was perfectly sweet and had a light but creamy texture to it. I would come back and try other drinks on the menu!

Wanted to grab a quick snack and boba and found this spot. Lots of choices and decided on the red bean slush and of course order of the popcorn chicken.Chicken was juicy and not dry! Pleasantly surprised they use dark meat, a lot of the other shops around the area have switched over to the chicken breast. Lemme tell ya that ain't it LOL. My drink was good, I like the thiccness of the slush and the pieces of red bean in it. Only thing I would change is that the boba needed to be drained a lot more, I got that kinda weird sugary aftertaste that was definitely from the boba not being fully drained ( you can see it in my pic). Hopefully they change that, otherwise everything was good and if I'm in that area I might stop by again. PEACE!

We decided to give chachago try because we were in the area and looking for a snack. We ordered the popcorn chicken, egg waffle, and the peach oolong tea with Panna cotta. The popcorn chicken was the best item that we got, surprisingly it was relatively crisp and had a good ratio of meat to breading. It wasn't really seasoned though so if you order it, be sure to be heavy handed with the seasonings that they have on the counter when you pick up the chicken. The seasonings on the counter are white pepper and spicy powder. Overall, I would say it's not bad but it's definitely not the best popcorn chicken I've ever had.The egg waffle took the longest to make which was a good sign because it was made fresh but when we received it, it was on the soggy side. The flavor was different compared to other egg waffles we had because it tasted like it had a hint of vanilla, which was very interesting. Even with this twist I probably wouldn't order it again purely because it didn't have the crisp and texture that I prefer when eating a waffles.For the peach oolong pure tea, the tea was definitely not brewed fresh because it had a very bitter taste to it, which overpowered the entire flavor of the tea. I ended up getting a pure tea because they mentioned that they only use milk powder in their milk teas, which is a huge turn off for me because I prefer Boba shops with multiple milk options. When I saw that they had Panna cotta on the menu, I was super excited because I love Panna cotta, but unfortunately, this Panna cotta disappointed. It's because it had a really weird grainy texture and the flavor was offputting.Overall, I won't be coming back mostly because this place didn't wow me and didn't have anything differentiating it from other Boba shops. Even with the best item being the popcorn chicken, it wasn't amazing enough to warrant coming back and try other items.

I dropped by to try this tea place out recently that I hadn't really noticed since it's tucked away off of State St. It is a very small shop with only a few seats to sit in, but there is plenty of parking. You order through kiosks and the drinks are made relatively fast. I had minimal interactions with the workers here since ordering is through the kiosk but they do seem pretty friendly.I ordered the Thai Tea with Boba. I will say, the boba is very, very sweet, I would recommend cutting the sweetness down on the sugar in the drink to balance it out. I also got the 'Fresh Sugar Cane Juice' for my mom. To her, it tasted artificial and the portion was small for the price that it was. Overall, I might stop by for the quick service and if I'm in the area to try some of their other drinks/ food items!

This place is pretty good. I am not a boba connoisseur or anything like that. Whenever I am in the area, I usually come here because it's easy to get to and there's hella parking. You order from the kiosk and they're pretty quick getting it prepared.There is a bench with a couple tables while you wait or if you decide to drink there.They are pretty sweet, but I always get little to no sweetness and use the toppings as the sweetener. Overall, it's pretty good.

A small tea shop with a huge menu. You really have to spend some time looking at the different drinks and snack options.You place your order by using the large touch screen menu. You can customize and finish up without any hassles. Matcha panna cotta is something I've never tried and liked. I opted for 25% sugar and enjoyed the less sweet version. Of all the snacks a corn dog somehow seemed to get my vote. They have either ketchup or spicy mayo as the dipping sauce. A quick and easy eat it up fast kinda snack. Light and crispy dough and plump doggie inside.The girls working were friendly and able to manage the orders which seemed continuous.I would venture back to try some more goodies next time.
