One N Half Lab

Came here in the afternoon on Memorial Day. The kitchen was closed (maybe the kitchen personnel took the day off) so they only had drinks for us to order, no food. We ordered Japanese Buckwheat Milk Tea as they were caffeine-free. They were delicious.Parking was easy as there was a parking lot.The staff was friendly. Too bad we could not try their food. Maybe next time.The environment was spacious, a good place to hang out at.

I wanted to try Rabbit Rabbit tea for the longest time but haven't got the chance to try the one near Pikes. So glad they open a second location on the Eastside! I discovered this restaurant serves Rabbit Rabbit tea so decided to dine inside. My partner and I came here around lunch time and noticed this place looks fairly new, tucked hidden on the corner of a complex shared with many businesses like Dickey's BBQ. As we entered the restaurant, we had no idea what to order but looked at the kiosk menu for suggestions. They serve mainly snacks and small dishes in addition to lunch combo options. We decided to try their popcorn chicken to snack on. I ordered the sukiyaki beef udon with the signature fruit tea while my partner got the braised pork belly rice combo with Assam milk tea. Once we ordered, we seated ourselves a table. The restaurant was small but had adequate amount of table seatings. The food came out pretty quick. The popcorn chicken was tendered and seasoned well. One of our favorite popcorn chicken we had so far! The udon noodle was okay, portion was a tad small for the price. The pork belly rice was pretty good and it came with half of a soft boiled egg. Overall, it was a nice quick service restaurant but our main purpose was to try their bubble tea. Both the drinks that were included with our combos were really good. The tea flavors were really fragrant and not overly diluted. I will have to come back next time to try the other tea selections.

I'm not sure if one and half lab and rabbit rabbit tea are the same or separate? Anyways I got the strawberry brown sugar Boba drink and I really enjoyed it. It had just the right amount of sweetness, I could taste the strawberry, and the Boba was cooked and flavored well. I also got the Taiwanese Hakka style braised pork over rice which had decent presentation and some variety in the bowl. However I wasn't a fan of the taste and texture of the pork itself. Granted I dont know how an authentic hakka style flavor is supposed to taste like but I know this dish is usually served with pork belly and this was ground pork and it was soy salty. Would not get this dish again but I would get the boba!

One N Half Lab is the same location as Rabbit Rabbit Tea which sells drinks. This review is for the food from one n half lab itself.The ordering system is a DIY kiosk or seat yourself at a table and order from your phone via a QR code. I ordered from the kiosk and sat down shortly after. I shared a popcorn chicken and got the pork loin rice. The food came about 15 minutes after. I noticed there were people still waiting for their food (the table had to ask about the status) and also noticed a delivery driver waiting who was visibly angry that the food wasn't ready on time.Popcorn chicken: the flavoring was a hint a basil and was just okay. There could've been more seasoning. The popcorn chicken was not fried long enough - the batter was soft and slightly slimy (at least the white meat chicken was fully cooked).Pork loin rice: the rice comes with plain white rice, some braised items/cabbage and potato salad (?). The fried pork loin was flavored well (way more than the popcorn chicken) and didn't have any fat in it which I like. I did notice the pieces were slightly irregular shaped and was like chicken tenders. The braised items (egg and tofu) were really good and was honestly my favorite of the meal - wish there was more. Also, typically in these bentos they put some minced pork over the rice but it was overall just plain and not too cohesive.Overall one n half lab as a whole could've been a lot better. There are small improvements that can make the items much better.

Solid popcorn chicken, probably the best in the Issaquah area. Bience is chill and the staff is friendly.

Good food and drinks! Been craving yoshinoya (from LA) and their beef bowl is so close to it! Second time here and plan on coming back!

Pretty new boba n snack place in the plaza where Thai Noodle boat is. It's cute little place. I liked the teas bc you can taste the tea flavor. I ordered the Assam milk tea with boba. Passion green tea. Fried squid balls, popcorn chicken and fried pork chop with rice. Good flavors on the food items. So glad there are more choices for me to go to.

First time here. Clean and nice restaurant with variety of Taiwanese food options and drinks. Food and drink came quick. We ordered a combo meal and beef udon and popcorn chicken. Popcorn chicken is very good :)

- Authentic Taiwanese dishes and tea, but pricy -I'm rarely here for food, but I stopped by here after hiking with my friend. I got the braised pork belly rice combo and she got the beef noodle soup combo. Her soup is authentic with good flavor, and my braised pork belly tastes on par with what I've tasted in Taiwan. The portions are just right for the combos for females, but it might not be enough for male who has a bigger appetite. I also ordered a popcorn chicken to go and it tastes on par with other places as well, but slightly on the harder side. Their pricing is less competitive since monga cafe in bellevue offers a smaller braised pork belly rice with a bowl of soup and two side dishes for $15.99. The rent in Bellevue is higher, so I'm guessing the profit for one n half lab is higher.They were playing Jay chou's songs when we were dining, and there were only one other group of guests eating at that time. We usually stop by here for bubble tea so I already knew their drinks are good. My fav is the iron Buddha milk tea, which is harder to find everywhere else. Their boba is half chewy and half soft, which means you won't have issues chewing them.

I like their interior design, service is efficient, and food is delicious! I would come back and recommend popcorn chicken!
