“If I could give 1000 stars!!! Mama wang was the absolute kindest and sweetest! My husband and I came in to buy a matcha bowl and tea!

“My first time here but this is one of my niece's go to when in the area. The place itself was pretty busy but the line moves fast. I ordered the matcha vanilla oat latte. It wasn't too sweet and the matcha was not lost in the vanilla and oat milk. It was a refreshing drink that I can keep drinking all day long. The place was busy but clean. We placed our order on the kiosk and the people who gave us our our was super nice.“

“Delicious 🤤 got three drinks and all amazing. Highly recommend l!“

“X Tea Cafe is definitely my favorite tea shop lately! The brown sugar boba milk tea is rich in tea flavor with just the right amount of sweetness, and the boba is perfectly chewy and soft — absolutely delicious. The shop is clean and bright with a cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and chat with friends. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone who loves high-quality tea drinks!“

“I recently visited a coffee shop that offered a wonderful experience with its relaxing atmosphere, delicious drinks, and excellent customer service. As soon as I walked in, the comforting smell of freshly brewed coffee created a warm and inviting feeling. The shop had a modern yet cozy interior with soft lighting, comfortable seating, and calming background music that made it an ideal place to relax, study, or meet with friends. The menu featured a wide variety of beverages and snacks, including espresso drinks, cappuccinos, iced coffees, teas, pastries, and sandwiches. I ordered a vanilla latte along with a chocolate croissant, and both were outstanding. The coffee was rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced in flavor, while the croissant was fresh, flaky, and delicious. The presentation of the food and drinks was simple but attractive, showing the care and quality put into every order. The customer service was one of the best parts of my visit. The staff members were polite, welcoming, and attentive to customers’ needs. They prepared orders quickly while maintaining a friendly attitude, even during busy hours. Their positive energy made the overall experience even more enjoyable. The coffee shop was also very clean and organized, including the seating area, counter, and restrooms. Free Wi-Fi and charging outlets near the tables added convenience for customers who wanted to work or spend extra time there. Overall, this coffee shop provided an excellent experience with high-quality coffee, tasty snacks, and a comfortable environment. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable place to enjoy coffee and relax.“

“Jessica was super sweet!
I came in wanting to get a milky boba but was not too familiar with the menu, she let me sample the 4 milk teas from in order of lightest to strongest
Green milk tea
Earl milk tea
Black milk tea
Oolong milk tea
:) definitely a very good vibe
I ended up getting the black milk tea with 30% sugar“

“I've recently purchased a box to try and have been impressed with the quality. I must have purchased a box that had quality control issues because I found an empty bag within the first two bags I pulled from the box. I contacted uncle lees and they went beyond my expectations and sent me two free boxes of tea! Well done!“

“My favorite drink is Coffee Milk Tea with topping Honey Sea Salt Cream 😋“

“It used to sell more supermarket type goods, whereas now, it’s more expensive teas and tea ware, electronics, wine and dried goods. It’s majority tea related stuff, so, it’s a good place to look for most kinds of Chinese teas, especially loose leaf and tea cakes.“

“I had a Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea with no ice and level 1 (of 5) sweetness. I really enjoy freshly brewed milk tea (freshly brewed after order is placed) compared to milk tea prepared with tea that was brewed well in advance, had been sitting on the shelf for who knows how long, and used only after the order is placed. I definitely recommend to try their boba tea.“

“And they were having a promotion where if I leave a review, I get a free drink so I’m grateful for that. The tea was good. There was only a little bit of miscommunication with customizing a drink and they make you do the review before they give you the drink so other than that I will definitely come back.“

“This review is a long time coming! I came here 3 times between Oct 2022 and April 2023, bringing friends (some new and some repeats) for tea tastings. You can try 5 teas per tasting with 5 steepings per tea (for time's sake and not because of flavor dissipation). There is such a wide and ever-changing selection of teas so there's always more to try than you could possibly ever drink!Tea habitat specializes in Chinese teas, but since that's already a lot of area to cover, you'll find something for everyone's tastes. The owner is hilarious, and we all enjoyed interacting not only with the tea and each other, but also with her. We definitely leave tea drunk :)I usually put some tasting notes for the teas in my reviews, but notes for 15 teas is a bit excessive so I'll just share a couple of my favorites.The 2022 Tai Ping Hou Kui Wild Grown 1st pick is almost matcha-like, velvety soft with a slight nuttiness. The flavor mellows over the steepings into a clean mouthfeel with subtle floral bouquet.The 2022 Xiao Ye Tu Cha Wild Native (white) Varietal Small Leaf was super interesting! It started with a sweet aroma and reminded me inexplicably of soy milk (a mix of slight creaminess and nuttiness, maybe), but with juicy mouth feel. The creamy berry sweetness really predominates in the second steeping, and there is a subtle almost umami tendency in the third steeping.I also bought a Chao Zhou red clay teapot to brew Phoenix Dan Cong teas at home!To buy to bring home, the prices of the tea leaves really range, with (of course) the really high quality teas being pricier (but oh are they good!). This is not my go-to place to stock up tea for every day drinking (can't quite afford that and some personal preferences), but it's a great treat for tea lovers to be able to access and experiment with a variety of Chinese teas. Definitely a fun experience, especially with friends!“

“Yay! a new place we hadn't tried and it's really good 🤗 we shared the green curry with shrimp,, the fried rice with chicken and shrimp and my favorite the pad see ewe with chicken yum. Definitely will be back to try the lunch specials. Very clean and super nice staff.“

“Their matcha is the best! Today I might get a chawan (matcha bowl), so that’s exciting. Also, since the chawan bowls over there don’t have a spout they are tradition, because ORIGINALLY people in Japan used to and still now, had made matcha without milk, without sweeter, ONLY pure matcha and water, which they drank out of the Chawan.“

“My go-to boba spot! This Lollicup location is hands down my favorite. Their drinks are always consistent, and I never leave without ordering the popcorn chicken, it’s a must. The staff is super friendly and quick, making the whole experience even better. 10/10 recommend the milk tea with boba!“

“This Horchata boba 🧋 is delicious 🤤! The service is awesome, long lines but well worth it 🤤“

“I have been coming here for multiple times for their drinks and so far I love it!
It is a small place for a boba shop but it is a pretty good place to chill when the place is not crowded. The servers are very nice and patient when you are ordering your drinks. The place in general are clean, even with the restroom.
The drinks are fantastic in my opinion, no matter what sweetness level you are going for. My personal favorite/ to-go are the rose cream foam milk tea or formosa ocean. Trust me, I think you will like them if you are a sweet tooth-er or Rose lover. (Good looking drinks for pictures too!)
Try their origanal flavored Formosa Umeyaki too! They are not only pretty for pictures, but crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside, specifically when they are freshly made. Great desserts matching with your drinks!“

“Beat boba milk tea. 😀😀😀😀“

“Was a perfectly fine boba place. We had the coconut based drinks, osmanthus and jasmine, with cheese foam. The osmanthus is more fragrant, perfect at 75% sweet. The jasmine probably needed 100% sweetness because it was a bit lighter in taste.

Quick and efficient service.“

“I'm a teaspresso milk tea enjoyer and this is one of the best milk tea places I've ever been to. The popcorn milk tea is uniquely buttery without compromising the tea flavor or the balance of the drink. The koan-im oolong milk tea is similar to Chicha's drinks in style but is richer and smoother while being less astringent. 10/10, would absolutely come again.“

“Rating: 4.5 stars
I ordered the strawberry slush but removed the ice cream. It comes with boba and u can choose which one using the substitution. Adding a topping is $0.85 per topping if its boba and more for other toppings. I had mango boba, which is only available on weekends and fridays. The boba is pretty good and freshly made, although the quality can sometimes vary. The mango boba tastes actually like mango and isn't simply just a coloring or very light, unlike some places with flavored boba.
In terms of the drink itself, it is one of the best strawberry slushes I've ever had, with the flavor tasting authentic. Since it's blended, there are some smaller ice bits that aren't fully slush-consistency, but apart from that, I'd definitely recommend this drink for those who like strawberry or fruit.
The one issue I have is that on the kiosk, the prices shown when selecting drinks don't include tax and only show them when u checkout, which can be annoying since many other stores do include tax when showing product prices. Because of that, the drinks can be somewhat pricey compared to other places, but on the plus side, the quality is amazing.“

“They make the best tea ever! Easy parking and friendly staff!“

“All good good place the pancakes is fenomenal“

“Great boba 🧋 drinks. Best in that area. Plus they have an area to play board games!!“

“As first-time boba drinkers, my kids and I absolutely loved it! Everything was so good, and oh my goodness the chicken bites were amazing. My son couldn’t stop talking about them! I think we definitely found a new favorite spot. The food and drinks were delicious, we will definitely be returning, and the staff was incredible. Thank you for the great customer service and excellent food!“
