“Found Babam this evening just walking around downtown Wheaton. It was such a wonderful discovery! The owner spoke with us for quite a while, and since it was our first visit she made a suggestion. Though most people order cold bubble teas, we were looking for something hot. We went with the pumpkin pie chai, and it was crazy good! They also have Japanese-inspired baked goods. Highly recommend, really fun place.“
“Amazing workers, super respectful since I had a lot of questions on what lava milk and heart shaped jelly was. They were patient and friendly. There’s so many games in there to play that we stayed and enjoyed! Mango slushi was so delicious!Dietary restrictions: Halal“
“I found this gem by chance. The food is beyond amazing, I had the fermented seafood pho. OMG!!! The flavors were so good, and nothing was overpowering. You know you're in a great place when the owner is greeting customers like they're part of the family. This will definitely be a return visit the next time I'm in town.“
“Best boba place ever! I went there for the first time with my friend a few weeks ago and every time I go there my drinks are always so good! Highly recommend for everyone to go. I’ve recommended to some of my close friends and they all say the boba is so good!! ? The owners are also super nice and efficient. I crave this every week and love going here. I get the grapefruit green tea with boba but the other drinks are also amazing!!“

“I absolutely love this place! I can be here 2 times a week. The staff is amazing, and super friendly! They make their food with LOVE. Everything is so fresh and taste amazing. And the fruit teas are such a thirst quencher!! Recommended to everyone if they love good “
“One of my favorite places!! The best pick me up. I come here at least once every other week. The atmosphere is amazing and the staff is friendly. They have a cute light up sign that you can take pictures by and they have a good amount of seating too. My go to is the taro coconut with no boba. The pina colada, coconut coffee, mango, and strawberry are also really delicious! Check this place out, you won’t be disappointed!!“
“All of the workers when I attended on a Saturday at 11pm were very polite and service driven. There are so many varieties of their signature desserts or beverages including make-your-own that anyone could easily make a habit to get their sugar dose “
“My husband and I stopped in this adorable bubble tea spot before running errands and really enjoyed it. We ordered a coconut milk tea with coffee jelly - boy was this a delicious combo. We also got an Ube bubble tea with crystal boba - this by far was the prettiest purple ube milk tea I have ever seen. The crystal boba however was abl bit denser than regular tapioca so I probably wouldn't get it again since I prefer the other texture. We also got two mochi waffle bears - Nutella with crispies & biscoff butter - they were warm, chewy, delicious and very cute. Honestly, I love this little spot and it has such a creative and colorful display that is super aesthetically pleasing. On top of it all, the staff was very friendly and patient with our questions. I definitely would return next time we're back in town and I recommend you try it.“
“This boba place was super cute inside and very well maintained! They have tons of menu options that I don't see at typical boba shops which was cool. I ordered the "fruity party" which was essentially like an orange/lemon tea with different fruit pieces inside like apple, kiwi, and strawberry - it was very refreshing! The servers were all nice as well:)“
“Update 4/7/24It’s been like a year since I was last here but we decided to give it a try again. We came here for a late lunch. It’s located in a small outlet, so parking can be limited since it’s shared. They do have some places to sit and eat but it’s limited especially during peak hours. When we came in, we practically had the whole place to ourselves. I believe it’s family owned and the owners are very nice and attentive. They have one gender neutral bathroom.We ordered stir fried lamb with onions, sweet and sour pork with pineapple, and shrimp, chive, and egg dumplings. Portion sizes are very generous and prices are reasonable.-stir fried lamb with onions 5 - lamb meat is very tender, requires very little chewing.-sweet and sour pork with pineapple 5 - most Americanized Chinese places, the pork would be soggy, but here the skin is very crispy. Pork inside is succulent.-shrimp, chive, and egg dumplings 5 - I really liked how they listened to my feedback from last time and added more moisture inside. They were definitely juicier and tastier than before. Skin is thin, good sized dumplings, and flavorful.Rating is 4No, the owners have not changed. I recommend getting dishes that are not the typical Americanized Chinese dishes like mongolian beef. Try something new and different.Dumplings I would give 4/5. I’ve tried several different kinds but they could be juicier. They have good flavor, just a little dry. I’ve tried shrimp, chive, and egg, beef onion, lamb carrot, and chicken and cabbage mushroom.Scallion pancake was too dry for me. It could use more flavor.Quick fried sauteed intestines were very tasty. I really like this dish.Shredded pork dishes were good. Spicy is really spicy. Shredded pork is not dry, is moist and just a little chew.Portions are generous. Service is good, they take care of their customers. Prices are fair for all the food you’re getting.“
“Second time visiting this location. Service this time could be improved. The girl with the reddish hair and glasses could have been more engaging and welcoming. That’s why one star was taken away. There are plenty of seating available, not sure why one reviewer said no seats. Drinks were good. I had the Thai pearl milk tea with aiyu jelly. I adjusted it so that there will be less ice and 50% sugar. It tasted perfect. Tip: try to ask for less ice and not 100% sugar. At least go for 50-80% sugar. Plenty of parking. Prices were fair.“
“Lovely little place in Naperville. Have only gotten the Salmon Obsession Bowl and it’s delicious every time. It’s a generous amount of fish and all other ingredients.They do have a lunch special with smaller size sushi bowl and a drink.“
“There’s no better ice cream.Try a scoop of Zoreo with a scoop of Banana on a waffle cone - for the perfect ice cream coma ??You won’t regret it!(At least not for the first 20 mins or so)So yummy ?The staff is always friendly and owner always kind.“
“The boba here is the best boba out of any place in the western suburbs. I have tried several places in Oakbrook, Bloomingdale, Lisle and none have the freshness and consistency of the boba here. In addition, I have found them to also be the BEST PRICE and highest quality. My fiancé and I come here once a month at least and more in the warmer weather. Can’t go wrong with the pink flamingo drink with 50% sugar and brown sugar tapioca. Wish they had a rewards program :)“
“I'm was surprised to find a Korean-style chicken place around here but so so happy. They expanded their menu too and if you haven't had CupBop yet, give it a shot! It's got a little of everything. Of course, if you come in and get their fried chicken every time, I think you'll be very happy all the same.And my girlfriend says that me introducing her to Korean Corndogs changed her life.“
“I must say, the wait was totally worth it! Not only is the menu perfect, but the drinks are also superbly produced, and the atmosphere makes me want to hang out there all day!Prices were considerably lower than I had anticipated, which is GREAT considering the state of the economy right now. I adored the customer service, which was kind and welcoming. The dining space on the front patio was a pleasant addition because the weather was excellent outside as well.I recommend.“

“Great spot to get Bubble tea, plus super delicious!The service is above and beyond, my friend and I forgot to ask for substitute milk after it was made ?♀️and even though we were prepared to repay to have it remade, the person remade it without asking us to pay again. Thank you!“
“Never knew they have a great pho restaurant in this place. They serve very good pho. I tried the ribeye pho, dumplings, and spring rolls and it was the best. I would definitely come back here to try another dish. Also the service was very fast unlike other pho restaurants.“
“This place was so good it was a little pricey but I understand why. The food and service was very good and it seemed very clean in there. I didn't expect for the ramen one to be so good but it was the best. Even the next day I heated it up in the microwave and it still tasted amazing.“
Bubble Tea • $$
“I went in and just got the boba tea and the waffle with ice cream and strawberriesThe atmosphere was great looks nice inside and out. But sadly, I did not have a chance to try the food but they do have a great verity on the menu. I plan on going back soon since the service was great!“
“Boba King truly reigns supreme when it comes to refreshing beverages! The pineapple jasmine green tea with passionfruit is an absolute delight, blending the fragrant essence of jasmine with the tangy sweetness of pineapple and passionfruit for a truly tropical sensation. Their Matcha smoothie boasts a perfect balance of creamy texture and vibrant matcha flavor, providing a refreshing boost of energy. And let's not forget their piña colada smoothie, a creamy concoction of coconut and pineapple that transports you straight to paradise with every sip. Boba King's commitment to quality ingredients and expert craftsmanship shines through in every sip, making it a must-visit for any beverage enthusiast! And the young lady behind the counter was extremely polite and very thorough explaining the type of drinks and how they make them! I definitely will return!“
