Boba Cafe has forever closed as of August 31, 2023. We loved Boba Cafe for its real ingredients and consistent drinks and bobas. The owners retired.In the same location is a new restaurant ynder new ownership, Old Gui Lin. It serves noodles with flavors from a city in Southern China named Gui Lin. It is an innovative business model that provides food with no service charge (I'm taking it to mean no tipping required). You order food at the cashier, get a buzzer, and pick up your order at the back window when buzzed. Condiments are next to the pick-up window. Seating is as available.

Boba Cafe is the local's best kept secret when it comes to authentic Taiwanese/Chinese food. It's basically a mom&pop's kitchen that serves simple home-style meals--nothing fancy. The price is fair and the meals are delicious, which are all you need during this high inflation times.

Came there at 9 pm no one in the restaurant , i saw a sign for fresh watermelon juice. Sounds yummy then the lady said large or small I said large , the she said $ 12.37 and then served me 10 minutes later a medium size lollicup for 3x times the price. Not to mention I read a menu that said it was $ 3.85 for watermelon juice. I still paid no receipt and dug in her purse for change for a $20.prices are different for black and brown people? And the place was dusty and dirty .

I'm next door to Boba Cafe and usually get lunch from here. (BBQ Chk over vegetable rice) The staff is very friendly, and the food is delicious. You need to try the Watermelon Icy, one of my favorites.

We live 2 blocks away and just recently we have discovered this cafe. Love their ground pork w/ noodles, shredded cucumbers and soybean sprouts and a touch of a delicious sauce. We’ve tried several soups and both the spicy beef and the dumplings soup have a good broth. My daughter loves their boba teas. An their customer service is excellent ?.

Only here for boba milk tea. The milk tea was decent. The tiger milk tea tasted like thai tea. The restaurant is small and a bit outdated. Friendly service. Parking was quite a nightmare, super tight and limited.

I miss this place. My husband and I used to go here and I would get a chicken dish in a light yellow curry and some shrimp spring rolls. The food was light and healthy and still wonderful. It has been a few years but if I get back to Sac-town, I'll be headed that way!
1st time eating here and I was disappointed. I order something simple since it was my 1st time trying food here. The chicken did not taste fresh and was really chewy on certain parts. I don’t have complaints about the steamed rice. The chicken was awful. I will not be going back.

Popped in for the boba tea. They have a wide range of options. We got chocolate milk (no boba) and taro. The staff were great. The interior is setup for family style dinner and smaller parties. They seem to have a very full menu of Chinese food as well.

Really enjoyed the dumplings and noodles here. We ended up ordering extra dumplings because they were so good. The food was great as were the various drinks including the avocado shake and Thai tea.
