The Boba Shop

Always order drinks here and never had a problem till today. Ordered a mango tea with 25 percent sugar and it was so sweet to where I had to go home and dump half and brew my own tea to make it drinkable. Tasted like they double pump the sugar instead of putting less.

This new location for The Boba Shop has had a "coming soon" sign out for some time, so when I saw it was open I looked forward to trying it. I went in on a busy Saturday noon and ordered a Boba Shop milk tea, a chicken banh mi, the Taiwanese Dry Noodles with chicken, and pork dumplings. The last three items cover the whole food menu. Not a ton of choices, but I was glad to be able to sample everything and there's not a lot of decision fatigue. The banh mi is a classic example of this Vietnamese sandwich--chicken and veggies on a very crusty French roll. On the small side but great for a $5 snack. The dumplings were nicely fried, tender, and had great flavor. The Taiwanese Dry Noodles dish was a new experience for me. The description is accurate--the pasta and chicken are served with no sauce. The flavor is cooked in, and is quite good. The dark meat chicken was tender with a lot of umami. The noodles, being dry, were just a bit sticky to take apart but not real difficult. It comes with a fried egg, and you can add a fried egg to their other versions of the dish. Putting soy sauce on this dish would make it too salty, so you should eat it as is. The Boba shop offers a wide variety of drinks--teas, coffees, and smoothies. The Boba Shop milk tea is a good tasty example of an Asian milk tea. It could be a go-to place for a coffee and tea fix. The food was served with no fish or soy sauce. I think that was intentional for the Taiwanese Dry Noodles, but I found myself missing fish sauce for the banh mi and the dumplings. I might have been able to ask for it, didn't check.The shop was quite busy when I went in. A great thing for them but it meant they were somewhat backed up, so I had a wait. It wasn't a bad wait, since the shop is cute and inviting inside--lots of nice clean tables and benches. They also have some games, so you're invited to hang out. The men's restroom was clean and ready. There were no specialized fixtures, so you do have the possibility of gender-based waiting without a real reason.All of that food cost me $25 with tip, which is a really good deal. Everything is around $5. Joyful Boba is right across the road, but has a different snack selection so both have their market. The Boba Shop is a nice addition to our neighborhood food palate.

Best drink I had in a min. I asked to give me something to try he gave three options and got a chicken sandwich to go. Place is cool.

We've been going to the one on FM 2920 and so excited that this one closer to us is now open. We happened to come just on the second day from opening day and met the owner who kept a sincere smile on her face as she quickly worked to tend to each customer. With great spacious and modern ambiance, delicious teas, and friendly staff, you can't ask for anything better.

Very friendly staff, we were greeted as soon as we walked in. The atmosphere is really nice and modern. Very relaxing with free Wi-Fi. Boba tea was better than expected. Love it and definitely will be back.

I love the ambience and the atmosphere. The greenery is nice. The food is great and tasty, and the boba is refreshing. The portions are also great. The service is amazing and the workers are so nice. I will definitely come back.
