“Really enjoyed my experience at Tea Cup Cafe! The food was delicious and tasted authentic, portions were generous, and everything came out fresh. The atmosphere was cozy and the staff were friendly. Definitely a great spot for Thai food in Queens. I’ll definitely come back!“

“The best coffee in town“

“Honestly I love summer. I bring my friends all the time and always recommend it for viet sandwiches. Been going since I was little and their sandwiches are always the same nostalgic and delicious. I love getting the grilled chicken sandwich and popcorn chicken.“

“First time coming inside here always pass it but never went in wow how I regret it now, their apple lemonade r delicious as well as their onigiri rice balls nom nom ^^“

“Came in early a.m., walked in to a bright and energetic atmosphere. Greeted by the cashier I gave my order. 1 Coffee and 6 donuts, not only was the price right; the donuts were phenomenal. I was unsure of what to get but they were patient with me lol I am a bit of a coffee snob and this was one of the best I’ve had. I’m always weary going into new territory (my own bs) but this was a delightful encounter for sure. I will absolutely be returning (with my children) as they could not get enough of the donuts. My new favorite spot without a doubt!!“

“Mmm... They take card! �� I really enjoy the setting. Great for after work cool down.“

“�First time tried Spicy fried squid ball. So in love with it. Bubble tea... All time favorite..“

“The popcorn chicken with the spicy season wasn't bad. It looks a lot more intense than it actually is, and honestly was pretty light! It's a light snack, and the chicken could've been more crispy and honestly more flavorful but it's pretty decent!“

“Delicious dumplings. They're so good. Also, I recommend the garlicky cucumbers for a light & tasty appetizer. Very clean, cozy, polite staff. 5 stars for sure.“

“Amazing Fresh Onigari (rice balls) & delicious teas! (Cold, Hot, Bubble, No-Bubble) Support a local Mom & Pop shop & get fresh tasty food & drinks — win win win!!! (The line outside moves, one customer/group inside at a time due to COVID, & everything is made fresh to order — your patience will be rewarded!)“

“Huge selection of board games. Catan, Wingspan, Coup, Heat, Betrayal, Exploding Kittens to name a few of my favorites that I saw. Shout out to Aron for suggesting some new stuff and chatting with me about pokemon he knows his stuff, super friendly! Also alot of tgc being magic and Pokemon alot of the new sets too. Good vibes and energy here.“

“Soothr LIC delivered an exceptional dining experience for our 8th wedding anniversary. The vibrant atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between high-energy and intimate, making it a stellar spot to mark a special occasion.
Our server, Jelly, was incredible from start to finish—attentive, warm, and seamless with her recommendations, ensuring the evening felt like a true celebration.
The Meal
* Mop Dang Puff: A fantastic start to the meal. The pastry was impossibly flaky, packed with rich, deeply seasoned filling that set a high bar for the rest of the night.
* Had Yai Chicken: Perfectly executed. The fried chicken achieved that crisp outer crunch while remaining tender and juicy inside, highlighted by fried shallots and authentic southern Thai spices.
* Crab Fried Rice: Generous portions of sweet lump crab meat folded into fragrant, perfectly separated rice. It had that distinct wok hei (breath of the wok) flavor that elevates simple fried rice into a standout dish.
* Panang Duck Lychee: The highlight of the night. The rich, creamy Panang curry sauce had just the right amount of heat, beautifully offset by the juicy sweetness of the lychee. The duck was rich and tender with crispy skin, binding all the sweet and savory flavors together.
Soothr LIC brought the heat, flavor, and top-notch hospitality for our milestone night. We couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate eight years!“

“The best slushies in Brooklyn. I highly recommend the watermelon and the melon flavored slushies. I really appreciate they give you the option to choose the amount of sugar in the drinks. I definitely recommend Oops for a cool drink on these hot summer days.“

“I love Heytea and this place was great. This time I tried the brown sugar milk boba without the tea since I can’t have caffeine. It was really good. I think the milk was thicker than I expected. I wish I got 25% sugar instead of half but it still tasted good. My friend got the mango coconut boom and she liked it.“

“Super cute shop with great branding. I got the taro milk and two onigiri as a combo. The taro milk is creamy and tastes like real taro, not the artificial purple powder kind, and it's not overly sweet. The onigiri are wrapped so the seaweed stays crisp until you pull the tab, and they're a perfect grab-and-go lunch. Staff were friendly, and there's a nice window seat and outdoor tables. Will be back for the taro milk!“

“Best Taro bubble tea in NY & NJ!“

“great little spot for refreshing drinks and bites! i love that they’re also open late, for all the night owls and partygoers. they serve food after 5pm and we came for the drinks but stayed for the food. we tried a slushy and yakult and you can try one of their combos or make it yourself. for bites we tried the spicy peanut butter noodles (loved the sauce), salt and pepper fried chicken, sesame chicken with broccoli, and curry fries. the space is small and seats are limited so be prepared when coming to dine in.“

“This spot is a go-to spot for me. Love the products and the sushi is great here for everything Japanese. There’s 50% off sushi after 8pm deal is genuinely so amazing for dinners. Can’t find it anywhere else that I’ve been too. Service is a 10/10 too.“

“I was in the fifth Avenue and bumped into this Boba tea/coffee shop.. it was morning and I wanted to have a fresh coffee. Went through the menu and wanted to try the tiramisu latte… great location very close to Empire State and other things.. The interiors was actually very good… it was huge and there were a few tables to sit and drink.. service was also good..

Pricing was OK.. was about 8 to 9 dollars for a latte, including tips.. slightly higher than regular coffee shops, but good for once in a while, flavored coffee.. tiramisu latte was actually very good.. He did put some small quantity of rum on it and it tasted so good… also tried taro boba and it was good . Looks like a Taiwan based coffee shop… it was surely different and refreshing.. good experience.. 4 stars ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Fresh and homemade Chinese food. An amazing cheff, cooking with passion and love. Highly recommended 💯“

“I use to frequent Iddys but I haven’t been back in a while. Stopped by today and met the lover new owner! Service was amazing. The menu expanded so much and there are more savory options available now! We got to play a board game while our food was being prepared which was so much fun! Definitely going to come back more often to try the new menu options.
10/10 recommend!“

“my favorite beverage shop ever!! incredible quality, fast service, organized, clean, beautiful interior, and amazingly convenient design of the cups. very pleasant place to sit down, and enjoy your drink. i’ve lost count on how many times i have come back here. though it is on pricier side“

“I got what was maybe the best strawberry matcha ive had in the city- at least top 3. Sour strawberry, earthy matcha. I got it at 30% sweet and could have done even less. It was unfortunately almost $10 before tip, which is par for the course given the neighborhood. Giving it 5 stars anyways“

“WonderPho is wonderful!! We found this restaurant on our recent visit to NYC and it has to be one of the best Pho restaurants we've been to in the country. The portion sizes are excellent, the service is outstanding, and the flavors are rich and delicious! The entire crew was so kind and welcoming, especially Jeff who take such good care of us tableside! We will definitely be back anytime we are in NY!!“

“Amazing food, friendly staff two thumbs up“

“Sooo good, the boba is nice and sweet just as I like it, the rice balls are very good and hot. The place is nice and calming with a bunch of choices on the menu that fit my liking. Overall the place is very clean and people should visit it more😊.“

“Muy delicioso 😋 me encantaría que esté en mi país Ecuador“

“Maple sugar tea packed w gingerm“

“Edit: I'm floored by the high level of their customer service. They've corrected their mistake and went above and beyond. I will be stopping again sometime!

I made a pick up order for 2 drinks. I received a text saying it was ready in 3 minutes and unfortunately it was rushed. The amber ceylon CHEESE tea was missing the cheese cloud...disappointed because I ordered it specifically for that topping. An honest mistake but nonetheless 😮‍💨“

“The other reviews already say everything, of if i could go beyond 5 stars. I had a cold and asked if they had hot tea. The lady offered to make me a hot lemon honey tea which wasnt even on the menu and asked me if i wanted it any sweeter after my first sip. I also ordered a mochi donut and it was the most delightful thing ive ever tried. Im a cheapskate, but those 4.25 were worth every penny. Super nice people and just a calm atmosphere, can only recommend!!!“

“Have been coming here pretty frequently the past couple of years and the bubble tea is the best in the area. The owners are extremely kind people and make you feel like you are valued as a customer. Tried Banh Mi here for the first time and it surpassed my expectations.“

“This place reminds me of the boba shops I went to in the 2000s and 2010s in California. Perfect for scratching that nostalgic itch. The prices are great, the drinks and snacks taste great, and the service is phenomenal. I feel welcomed here and it’s a nice, peaceful location to take a break from the crowded, busy city outside.“

“Bubble tea was delicious, ordering was a little confusing - I used the self-order screen but there was no one at the counter to complete the transaction.
It's a small store so I waited outside and walked around for ~10-15 minutes, went back in, and was finally attended to. Not sure why the other worker didn't help me out or give me any indication what was going on, pretty sure other customers that came after me got their drinks.
Kind of annoying but at least the Asian guy was attentive and competent and like I said the tea was delicious. I'd go back again.
Also, they charge a small fee for cards so bring some cash.“

“The bubble tea here was amazing, and the atmosphere was absolutely wonderful! Ethan, Leo, and Ben provided incredible service and helped create such a welcoming and enjoyable experience. The drinks were delicious, perfectly priced, and I truly enjoyed every sip. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“This is my go-to spot for boba! Their signature brown sugar boba is absolute perfection—flavorful and never overly sweet. The service here is always top-notch. I recently tried the matcha, and while it was decent, their brown sugar boba is definitely the real star of the menu!“

“Delicious place first tome going today and I really liked it the pineapple green tea Nata jelly was super good. I’ll be going back for more.“

“I had such a great experience at Koo Thai restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The portions were generous, definitely more than enough to satisfy. The service was also excellent — very friendly, attentive, and quick. Overall, everything from the taste to the presentation was on point. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for authentic Thai food with great value and great service.“

“Had their Jasmine Green Grape and it was okay. More of tea taste with some green grapes but refreshing enough for a hot summer day. They did have some other interesting selections on their menu like the Mangosteen Iced Tea that I wouldn't mind trying one day.“

“Hands down the yummiest boba shop in the entire neighborhood! Their snack side dishes are super tasty too. The whole team is so warm and super welcoming to every customer. It’s just a tiny cozy shop and it’s always packed with people on weekends.“

“One of my friends told me about this place, and it’s a great spot to go after school. The yuzu ponzu salmon bowl was delicious and flavorful, and there are so many great options to add. The girl up front, Ayumi, was very sweet—she greeted me and explained the menu options. I would absolutely come back. 10/10 would recommend!“

“Always look forward to the brandy milk tea in the winter, interesting new flavors every so often, and the cute giveaways!“

“Bubble tea and their pastries are amazing! I had the matcha cheesecake and it was delicious! Love the staff over there!“

“I’ve only ordered delivery service from here before, and I really love their food.

I usually get the juicy burger meal, it comes with the burger, fries, and choice of drink. I think it’s a really good value meal. I also get it with chicken wings and it’s delicious with my Chick-fil-A sauce at home lol.

I also enjoy their egg and spam onigiri, it sounds plain but I thought the same, but once I tried it, it was better than I thought, give it a try. I usually can’t finish eveything so I leave the onigiri for later at night time, when I am hungry.

Thank you for your service!“

“Came on a Saturday afternoon and it was quite busy! Tons of folks were coming in and out for a spot I almost walked past! Extensive menu with plenty of fruit slush options (no milk), smoothies (with milk), bowls, or boba. I'd prob rec not getting the boba, since nyc is blessed with boba-specific spots lol

I just finished a workout, so I opted for their large Powerful Chia ($11), which had banana, mango, pineapple, and chia seed. I got almond milk, since they didn't have oat milk at the time. Price point was relative on par with other chains. You can add Orgain organic protein for +$1.

All ingredients are blended right in front of you, which is always great to see. Overall, would return to a Hawa!“

“Stopped by after work ordered a Passion Fruit Green tea and a crab rice roll. The bubble tea and the rice roll were both delicious!

The service was also great, very nice and welcoming workers.

Will definitely be coming here often“

“The chicken is really well fried, crispy on the outside and not dry on the inside, exactly what they say they will serve!! The sauces are also very tasty, I tried the spicy one and the blue cheese one both taste great ! Quick service as well, definitely give them a chance if you are craving fried chicken !“

“The drinks are really good and well made. I usually get the mango milk tea with cheese foam and mango popping bubbles, and it’s so good!! Their brown sugar milk tea is also really good, probably one of the best I’ve had so far. And their cups are always so pretty with cute designs. Would definitely recommend!“

“love the protein bowl! love all the juices!“

“Boba Fries in Woodside is my favorite boba spot! The drinks are always delicious, fresh, and made with great quality ingredients. They also have amazing fries that are perfectly crispy and so flavorful—they're the perfect snack to enjoy with a boba.

The customer service is always friendly and welcoming, and the staff makes every visit a pleasant experience.

I also love their rewards program. If I'm not mistaken, after buying around 10 boba drinks, you get one free. It's a great way to reward loyal customers and keeps me coming back.

I highly recommend Boba Fries in Woodside to anyone looking for delicious boba, tasty fries, and excellent customer service!“
