I always enjoy their snow (especially mango) fruit teas. My favorite fruit tea is the passion fruit green tea I love adding lychee jelly. For food, their popcorn chicken is so good! Pretty consistent throughout the years. If you like spicy then go for the higher numbers. But for me, someone who enjoys mild spice, a level 1 is too spicy and have to go less than that. Tapex is good for wanting to go back to old time classics. There are way too many new boba shops popping up with eccentric drinks but terrible milk teas lol

Crispy salty chicken are so delicious too. The only downside is they open really late 12pm so I can't enjoy milk tea in the morning.

If you can't handle spicy food, I suggest trying a 0.5 level of spice for a milder option, as their spice levels can be extreme. Avoid level 5 spicy unless you really love spicy food. Personally, I always order combo A because the milk tea helps balance out the spice of the chicken, and they offer small pearls which I wish more boba shops would have. This place only accepts cash or debit card, but I recommend using cash because they charge 50 cents for debit transactions. Overall, if you're looking for a quick bite, I recommend stopping by. I always grab a snack here when I pass by.

Drinks are also great and reasonable priced! Much cheaper than most other places. Even though this place is far for me Ialways go here since I can't get their snacks anywhere else. Highly recommended!

The lady at the counter was super rude to me and my girlfriend. Thought it was us but she was rude to the ladynext to us as well.
