Tapioca House

I would've never considered ordering anything other than a drink here but I'm glad I decided to give it a try! The brown sugar boba was really sweet which I didn't mind. The beef noodles had a kick but tasted better than I had expected because, after all, I do admit I had low expectations for food from a boba shop. The popcorn chicken was the star of the show as it was so savory and crunchy that I had to resist ordering more. If I come back I would probably just order the chicken nuggets! The place had kind of a weird smell and all the tables and furniture were kind of sticky and dirty. The service was subpar as well.

Always always a solid boba cafe shop. The popcorn chicken stayed crispy after my 30 mins drive! The drink is always delicious. I hope this place will forever be in business. By far, no other boba cafe have their food like this place!

I have been coming here since middle school and it has a special place in my heart. Green tea bread is one of the off the menu items but they don't offer it all the time. Rose green tea is my all time favorite drink. Their food and drinks are good and affordable. You can get a whole entire meal here for $10-$15.

Stopped in for a mango green tea. Tasted fresh and served fast. Lots of seating inside and is clean. Servers were very friendly and attentive.

My favorite chicken nuggets in town! A combo chicken nugget meal (a small boba, chicken nuggets, rice and green beans) is $10, which is a steal if you're already getting drink because that alone is over $3. The nuggets always come out so crispy. You also get to choose a spiciness level - I always choose 5 and it's really not that spicy. The scallion pancakes are thicker than I imagined but still delicious and the crispy tofu was not as crispy as the nuggets but still had a great flavor. The curry chicken meal was also yummy and very filling! The milk tea half sugar boba is my other go-to but this time they were out of tapioca so I got it with coffee jelly and I do not recommend - the coffee jelly was a little harder than I would've liked. The strawberry smoothie was super yummy and with lychee jellies inside it was a nice dessert!

An affordable and underrated spot to eat at! The beef in their beef noodle soup was super tender; I could cut it with a plastic spoon. They give a generous amount of noodles too, although their broth could be more flavorful. The chicken nuggets are seasoned well and I liked how they cooked their green beans. Lavender milk tea was underwhelming... not a strong enough floral flavor.

Wanted to update my review to day this place holds so many memories growing up in Houston. It was my tapioca hot spot before any of the other spots. The OG and so happy they are still around and thriving. The food is still spot on. The spicy chicken combo is still the same and hits the spot. The drinks are still perfect. The place has been remodeled and updated, for those who've been coming for over a decade will know the significant change. I bring my kids here now and they too love the food. Love you Tapioca House!

Tap house will always hold a special place in my heart as I basically LIVED at the one on the drag in Austin during my college days. I was able to get a whole ass meal for less than $10, and being a broke af student, it was truly heaven sent. When I moved to Houston, I was more than happy to frequent this place again. I usually get the same order cause why try to fix it, if it ain't broke? That would be the chicken nuggets meal 5 spicy with an oolong milk tea, and it never disappoints! The chicken nuggets are always crunchy and golden brown to perfection with the spicy powder just enhancing the flavor. With the meal, you also get bean sprouts, green beans, rice topped with ground meat, and an egg for your sides. Trust me when I say I am actually able to save half of the meal for dinner cause the portion is chef's kiss. If you were looking to get another side (treat yourself), I'd recommend the green onion pancakes! Crispy, flavorful, and just plain delicious. As for the boba, I usually don't have much to complain about. I will say though that the teas they make tend to run a bit more sugary than I'd like, but I just ask for it to be made with 50% sugar. They also offer party trays, which are always a big hit whenever I bring them around!

Revisted one of the first boba spots in bellaire, at least in my memory. The last time I was here was many years ago, as it was the go to after school snack spot. They have renovated since then, with an ambiance that attracts small groups and individuals that need to do work or just chill.I got a jasmine milk tea with boba, and the total came out to be around $5, which is very affordable compared to other boba spots that keep opening around the area. The taste reminds me of magic cup, which is not my personal favorite but also not bad. I would still come back to try other drinks.

After ordering a pick-up order, the food had a metal wire from a scrub brush about a quarter of an inch long.After calling to ask for a manager, I was hung up on twice.After driving in person to the location, I was refused the contact information for their insurance company to file a claim for a visit to the hospital for an x-ray to ensure my girlfriend had not ingested any other metal.I was told by staff that if anyone calls asking to contact a manager to not give any information out, and if they call back to hang up on them.I will be contacting the health department tomorrow.Check your food if you eat here carefully.
