It says that they are closed until 2025, due to construction in the University Mall.

Don't get boba here, especially the Jasmine Milk Tea. Legit tastes like expired powder and it looks like styrofoam and tastes like it. I'd say it's worth $0.99 but unfortunately that's not the real price.

Compared to the quality Tea House in LA and San Jose. This place is just mediocre. Like Lollicup/Quicklies. However, this is Davis and there really isn't anything better.

This is a very popular restaurant close to UC Davis. Very popular with students and locals. The food is delicious, I have the Kimchi Tofu Beef Soup bowl every time I go! Friendly staff! 💟

Good milk tea. Price is okay. And it runs very late.

Nice Smoothies, Boba, and Tea. Prices feel high but not crazy. The indoor dining area is clean and comfortable, but the bathroom appears forgotten from the regular cleaning routine

The food is not the best, I personally only come here when I’m desperate and everywhere else is closed. The food is often very dry or way too salty (the pork belly). The green beans taste inedible and super stiff. The Thai tea is meh (even Cuarto Market has better Thai tea). The customer service is hit or miss, I still can’t forget this one time when I walked to the cashier and they told me to use the kiosk to order when there were no customers in the store and when I was finished a customer came in and they were allowed to order right at the cashier (sorry for the rant 😅). Anyways T.L.D.R. don’t come here the food and boba are below average and way too expensive. I personally like the Hawaiian place next door.

I have been coming here more than a year due to its location and the quality has never improved. The flavors I usually get end up being bland, especially for my go-to at any store, Thai tea. Today it was a far darker orange than usual. I have experience in food service making this particular drink, and I knew at first glance it would taste off. Again it was watery, bland, and this time also over-steeped (making it bitter). Considering how they don't let you adjust the sugar level of this drink, this was the final straw and I have given up on this place. The lackluster quality of many milk teas I have tried here have made me wonder if the employees have tasted the tea they make. For such a good location and college student customer base, I've hoped again and again that their drinks would be better to no avail. Would recommend any other milk tea place in a heartbeat over this.

The OLD tea house is a good description, every drink tastes like it was made yesterday. Got served raw chicken and went through food poisoning. Wouldn’t pay $15 for food poisoning.

I have never had any problems here, there food is delicious! But today I had ordered some boba and food. It said it would take 10 minutes, so a bit more than 10 minutes later i went in and the drinks weren't even made. I had to wait like 10 minutes longer and then they finally made the drinks. I didn't really look at my drink much, but I also Didn't taste any boba. Then when I got home I noticed there was NO boba. I paid extra money for what?! I'm really annoyed with this.
