“Great my favorite place to get the Boba tea“

“If you like Hong Kong food, this restaurant will be a good choice. The three of us only had the Labor Day menu left to order. We ordered beef porridge and preserved egg and lean meat porridge, which were delicious. The porridge was cooked very authentically, almost replicating the taste of what we had in Hong Kong. The barbecued pork buns were so delicious that I forgot to take pictures. The appearance of the barbecued pork buns made me think that they were just a stuffed bun, but the fillings were amazing and tasted beyond expectation. The fillings of the dumplings are so much that they will explode, but the skin is as thick as a steamed bun, not the thin skin and meat as we imagine. I am not very used to it. Fried chicken wings are available everywhere in the United States, and there’s no comparison. In addition, what we like very much is the Hong Kong-style milk tea in the store. The boss has adjusted the sweetness. It is not as sweet as the Hong Kong milk in our impression. It is surprisingly delicious. Instead, it feels like Taiwanese milk tea. It turns out that the boss’s wife is Taiwanese. All in all, this store doesn't have any renovations, and the menu doesn't have very fancy dishes, but the food is really delicious. If you miss Chinese food (Hong Kong food) in the United States, this restaurant is definitely worth a try!“

“We love surreal and miss it now that it moved away from our area. No other ice cream place has the unique flavors and combinations of Surreal. The Earl grey Vietnamese coffee or the Matcha and Tarro flavors are the best.“

“The BEST place to get boba in NJ. The prices are extremely affordable and the flavor is of high quality instead of cheap powder many companies seem to use these days. I absolutely recommend this place. Plenty of seating and tons of drink and food options. 10000/10“

“It’s a nice place seat with my friend~ they have board games,like uno🥰“

“Absolutely amazing service. My husband and I happened to come across from Staten Island where we are visiting his Grandmother (we are from Hampton, VA). Let me tell you this spot did not disappoint. Nestled in beautiful area, we’re welcoming faces, great customer service and the most amazing tasting Boba Tea! We will definitely be back when we are in the area again! We highly recommend you checking out Boba Time Tea!!!“

“awesome food, went in for bubble tea and came out with banh mi and BBQ sticks last time and now bubble waffles 🧇 sssooo goooddd!!!!“

“Delicious tea... I don't like my teeth too sweet and the young gentleman making them suggested 50% sugar, and that was perfect just sweet enough! Usually teas from other places taste like diabetes in a cup lol
I tried the Thai tea with real whole milk and was pleasantly surprised that is was better than some Thai restaurants around here. My friend got a coffee tea and he was impressed also. The young man that made our teas was personable and skilled. The owner of the franchise also runs the Nathan's inside the shop and he's a very nice man. Love this place...the food is made to order and as good as fast food gets. Cheers guys!“

“Thank you for the beautiful wedding bouquet! Alice was very nice and great at communicating the entire process from sourcing the flowers and pricing. Would highly recommend whoever is looking for a beautiful bouquet. Plus, they have great bubble tea options!“

“I loved the service it was so clean they are so creative and the boba is so good it is delicious“

“My first boba on the East Coast and in Metuchen at 11:20 PM! 🤣 I got mango and strawberry boba with amazing popping boba. Tried popping boba for the first time and I'm obsessed highly recommend! Thank you, Akihi Bubble Tea! :)“

“Curry fish balls were really good and the staff was very attentive. The tomato rice in the crispy pork chop gratin was good but the crust from the pork chop was separating and the meat was a bit dry. Biscoff sweet french toast could have been softer too.“

“My second time to Akihi but first time to East Brunswick store. The staff are friendly. We ordered 6 drinks and sweet potato fries.
All of tea drinks were yummm. We all unanimously disliked sweet potato fries, the powdered flavor sprinkled on the fries was too bad.“

“Reviewed mainly for Bubble Tea :
- Flavor: Limited selection available. I got the Jasmine milk tea with oreo, rice mochi, and boba. The taste of the milk tea was drowned out by my choice of toppings but still kept an accent taste of Jasmine. However, the texture of the tea was silky smooth without feeling too heavy or overly creamy.
- Boba/toppings: Generous amount of Boba with an ideal elasticity. The whole boba was elastic throughout for a pleasantly springy and tasty chew. More importantly was the rice mochi. Usually I dislike mochi because it gums up the straw but this handmade mochi was superb. It broke easily for pleasant drinking, actively varied the texture between silky tea to a thick rice pudding-like texture, and the plain rice flavor tempered what would normally be excessive sweetness from the oreo or boba.
- Price: Due to my toppings, price was on the higher end (8$, 2026) compared to what I consider the average price (7-8$). The average large will be roughly 7$
- Overall - Although slightly short of what I would consider an ideal local bubble tea place due to wanting a more flavorful tea (might be my fault for the toppings), I would happily come back again just for the mochi/boba combo alone.

- Extra - The seating area is quaint for small group hang outs. They also have a peculiar thing for adding cheese to their drinks which I haven't had the pleasure of trying.“

“Excelente servicio. Excelente lugar. Excelente higiene. Excelente personal. Y mas que delicioso todo el menu. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amazing drinks!! Dairy free alternatives and fantastic local pastries. Love Bubz!!“

“Got carrot and orange juice, they made it fresh. Wide variety of ice cream, snacks, acai bowls, waffles, bubble tea, smoothies, and other drinks. The cup is sturdy and the store is cutely decorated. The employees are nice. Price is reasonable. Located across from Cheesecake factory and next to Barnes and Noble inside the mall.“

“Love all their milk tea drinks!😋“

“I went to this cafe for the first time with my friends and I found it very enjoyable. The poke bowls and tea are delicious although it can be a bit pricey. They have 3 ordering stations and private seating places which are perfect for studying but a bit dark lowkey. They also have free water which is a blessing. Parking is also easy to find🙏.“

“Great my favorite place to get the Boba tea“

“My favorite bakery. Love egg tarts, love Boba, love the unique breads from the tuna roll to the raisin twist that tastes like a Trinidadian currants roll but with the addition of coconut.

Just a very satisfying bakery to eat and relax in.“

“Amazingly delicious food with beautiful presentation and top notch quality and quantity! Love the environment, attentive/knowledgable staff, wait is beyond worth the food! Second time having lunch there with Addy personally coming around to make sure all customers were satisfied!“

“So happy I made this discovery! Black garlic ramen was delicious! They have probably the best bubble milk tea I’ve ever had. Wish they had another location in West Chester!“

“Big variety of great food! Love it! Highly recommended!“

“I ordered the kale boost tea and it was pretty good. I would recommend it on a hot summer day since its truly refreshing. The interior of the shop is well organized. And all their drinks looked very beautiful and tasty. Definitely give it a try if you are nearby!“
