“I met Agnes today.. she raved about the cafe she and her sister share. Her pride and overall light when describing their cafe drew me in. We visited the cafe and ordered veggie dumplings and veggie egg rolls with fried rice and boba tea to go. The food was beyond amazing, super flavorful, fresh, well priced and the portions were on point! To top it off, Agnes's sister ( didn't catch her name) she was kind, patient and accommodating-. cafe was also really cute and welcoming. We will be returning! Thanks guys.The food didn't sit long enough to snap pics sorry ????Im pescatarian, they had many options“
“Got Mango smoothie and Taro Milk tea with pearls. My 14yo boy loves the Taro flavor. The genuine taro chunks blended into the drink really set it apart. Mango smoothie comes rich with fresh mango.Seating for this location is in the shared food court, in Reading terminal market style.“
“Very nice quiet atmosphere. Very peaceful and I loved seeing the daughter and Mom duo. It's was refreshing to see considering I brought my daughter along with me. The Boba my daughter ordered wasn't sweet to her liking, and she was going to add additional sugar, however the owner called my daughter over to fix the drink. It's the little things and this business has it! ❤️“
“These donuts are fantastic! The flavors are fun and it’s hard to choose just one. The woman running the counter was so accommodating and made sure that I got my tea exactly how I wanted it, which I’ve really never been asked before. There’s a spacious seating area inside too, which we took advantage of! This is definitely my new go-to donut spot.“
“This place is an absolute gem! Me and my best friend went here for lunch today and we chose the right place! This was my first time having Kimchi and Kimbap and both were phenomenal. The beef bulgogi was so flavorful as well as the wings! The man and the woman who were serving us were so sweet, welcoming and kind. Do yourself A favor and check this place out!“
“I initially thought Platform Z was a bit of a strange name for a poke place, but once arriving it was immediately obvious that the name was due to the fact that this place is inside of a cute little train station!The service here was absolutely outstanding. The staff who were present the night we went for date night were very kind, patient, and eager to help with menial tasks like even giving us a bag as we were walking out the door. The kitchen area itself was very clean and all of the food was fresh. The lighting in the restaurant itself was a little bit lacking in terms of atmosphere, but I don’t really fault this place for not having absolutely perfect feng shui.The food here was really good! The portion sizes on the poke bowls are honestly massive, easily enough for 3 meals. The boba in the boba tea was a little undercooked, but nothing to complain about. The miso soup here specifically was easily the standout out of everything we ordered, I don’t think I’ve had miso soup that good in months.Whether you’re just passing thru on your commute to work or you’re coming here for a date, I highly recommend!“
“Gong cha is solidly okay boba - nothing to write home about but their tapioca is a good texture of chewy but not to chewy. The teas are too sweet for me at regular sweetness, so I recommend getting 50% sugar (regular is 75%). The service at this location is and a drink will average $7-8 with tax. They share the space with a to-go sushi restaurant and have a few tables inside, so you can grab dinner and a drink and sit and eat.“
“The volcano poke bowl was excellent, but the Jasmine Bubble Tea with Mango was just Terrible. It might be just a preference but I personally was over it after a couple sips.Having said that the staff was really nice and I really enjoyed the poke bowl.“
“adorable boba tea shop and very friendly owner. i usually visit this shop after i stop at maido! down the block and it's always a wonderful experience to get boba here. this place was my first experience with boba tea and it was definitely the best first experience you could have! authentic, and bursting with flavor, prices are reasonable and the owner is very sweet“
“Finally went in for the first time. Christine is so lovely, she let me sample the sauce before ordering. I chose the Passyunk Double Passion bowl since I like salmon, eel, and mango. It was really fresh, all the ingredients were good. You can also mix your own bowl and there's a good variety of toppings to go on sushi rice, brown rice, or salad. Will definitely come again, she's currently on break for Labor Day!“
“Excellent quality sushi! My family ordered a couple sushi combos and a special roll and everything was super fresh and absolutely delicious. Best sushi I had on a long time (inmy opinion, in terms of ramen and sushi it beats some otherJapanese restaurants in the area)“
“A small corner bakery in South Philly with an Asian flair. Hearty and delicate and sweet and savory pastries, steamed pork and vegetable buns, traditional Asian pastries at the holidays like beautiful mooncakes and gorgeous cake creations including Yule Logs at Christmas. New and delicious dishes are always being introduced and there is an extensive menu of beverages. You will not leave Dodo hungry or broke! Everything is very reasonably priced especially for such high quality creations!“
“There's not other way to describe this place except..surreal. The menu boasts boba soft serve combos as well as crazy mixes of soft serve, as well as cake topped with toppings frosting and soft serve in mason jars! Our favorites was the taro boba topped with taro and matcha swirl! The flavors were amazing and the boba was the perfect consistency! The Cookie Monster themed nom nom was perfect for kids (3 kids could share one!) and the chocolate cake mason jar but was 90% soft serve and 10% cake/frosting/fudge/etc. Super friendly and helpful employees. Pricey but worth every penny. Will be back soon!“
“Good quality sushi and drinks. I highly recommend their green tea lemonade (so refreshing!). But I really wanted to leave a review to say that the owners of this restaurant are very kind and attentive. Please give them your business. I had a pleasant experience here.“
“Best place to get a boba tea in the area. Their Korean style fried chicken is also pretty good. I really appreciate that they accept dogs inside and even give away free dog biscuits. that’s really nice when I’m walking my dog and need something to drink.“
“Everything I've ordered has been great. Way more chill atmosphere than Kung Fu Tea. Super friendly staff. One time, I accidentally left my water bottle there and when I walked in weeks later it was waiting for me. Their pineapple passion fruit green tea is so good!“
“I love bunnies (and have my own) and knew I had to come here. The employees were so nice, and the store was so cute—filled with a bunch of bunnies. Highly recommend coming here. Obviously, I had to get the bunny fruit tea, and it was so good and refreshing.“

“I've been here multiple times, and every time, I've never been disappointed. I've had a cheesesteak and fries and fried shrimp, and all of it was fresh and good! If I want a quick drink, I come in and grab a fresh fruit tea with little sweet, and I add popping bubbles to mine. If you ask they to customize, they will! They are awesome, clean, and quick!“
“A friend recommended I try this place out because I love tea. I was impressed by their unique selection and absolutely recommend the Guangzhou Milk Oolong and Athena's Blend. The former is absolutely delightful while the latter is soothing. I've drank a LOT of tea in my life but I was still enchanted by these two blends. I'll definitely be ordering more. I do wish the packaging wasn't so plastic heavy but that's one of my only criticisms.“
“Great place to have ice cream! Really enjoyed coming here. Limited parking available, but I was able to get a free spot on a Saturday evening in February. There is a paid(?) parking lot across the street. Would definitely go again.Parking: Limited parking available at the restaurant. Only four spaces available. There is a paid(?) parking lot across the street.“
“I'd like to give this a 4.5, but that isn't an option. This is a wonderful place to get a very delicious and extensive variations to your boba tea. The reason I am giving it a four is that this store needs to get better at explaining the prices and add ons. I wasn't aware that the variations I requested changed the price. Had I known, I would have asked for the standard. Otherwise, great place. Only better boba tea place I have been to is in Altoona.“
“We ordered the Classic banh mi, popcorn chicken, and furikake fries.The banh mi was solid, but nothing stood out to me. I would like to try some of their other banh mi in the future.The popcorn chicken was lightly breaded and juicy on the inside. It tasted like Bare Chicken Nuggets from Costco. It was a great vessel for the honey mustard. The serving size seemed a bit small and I would have preferred if they were more seasoned.The fries were okay. The furikake seasoning didn't stick to the fries very well and the seasoning has a very light flavor. I think the fries rely on sauces for flavor, and the spicy ketchup was just okay. I would like to try the spicy mayo or viet mayo next time.Overall a solid experience. Nothing blew me away, but I would go back to try the other banh mi.“
“So yummy! Great staff, willing to modify your beverage however you’d like. They can even do less sugar if desired. They used real frozen fruit for their fruit smoothies which I definitely appreciated. The decor is fun and the location is clean and well maintained“
“New place. Came here via FB event, "Cars & Doughnuts". Small independent business. Pretty good mochi. I had a creme Brule mochi and a chai tea. I didn't like the Boba balls, tbh I don't get the fad surrounding them. Good service, they're gonna need more workers for sure, I can see this place getting popular. The chai was awesome, way better than any other place of recent memory. The mochi was good too, not too sweet like pastries you would find at a DD or Wawa. They didn't hurt my stomach and were quite pleasant. I will be returning.“
“Their green bubble tea was really nice that uses authentic green tea that was brewed the same day. You can decide how much sugar and ice you want for your bubble tea. Just one thing, if you’re sensitive to caffeine, you might have trouble falling asleep at night. Mornings are fine, dinner or nighttime, would be best to get their fruit bubble tea.“
“Very cute place, we go to all the Kung Fu teas and other bubble tea places in the area and were excited to find a Kung Fu with the chicken restaurant inside. The chicken was great, the macarons were delightful, the board game selection was solid, and the staff was cool. I wish it was closer to our house, but we will definitely visit there every time we go to Microcenter.Parking: Big parking lot - plazaKid-friendliness: This would be a great little family outing. Bubble tea is the new frozen yogurt which is the new ice cream. You could probably spend half an hour to an hour here playing board games, eating, and relaxing.“
“This place has been a staple of my kids social life since elementary school. I also go there with them sometimes. They have the best Boba. An extremely large selection of Boba flavors and types. They also sell homemade desserts that range from cheesecakes all the way to different sorts of Asian sweets. It's very clean very organized, and the staff which are family members are extremely friendly. We have never been disappointed, not one time in all the years we've gone there.“
