“I used to come here quite frequently, but the service is always so slow no matter how busy they are and half the time my drinks were made incorrectly. Also the later at night, the louder and more inappropriate the music playing inside was. I love kung fu tea but this location is my least favorite“

“Best Asian fusion place around. My wife and I make it a priority to try Asian restaurants anywhere we travel.. especially Vietnamese cuisine. Alo has hands down the best Pho I’ve ever had, amazing Shrimp Pad Thai, even simple pork fried rice is great. Ingredients are fresh, food tastes amazing, staff super friendly and atmosphere inviting. Try it once, you’ll keep coming back.“
“Kung Fu Tea - Ryan is one of the largest Kung Fu Tea's on the East Coast. It was also the coziest and coolest Kung Fu Tea's I've ever been in. The owners were friendly. It's a great hangout spot. You can enjoy a bubble tea and/or a croffle as well as play a board game and/or watch anime. In terms of croffles, there are 5 varieties to pick from - Original, Oreo, Strawberry Chocolate, S'mores, and Banana Chocolate. Over the span of an hour, we enjoyed Rosehip Milk Tea with Coffee Popping Boba, Guava Black Tea with Mango Jelly, S'mores Croffle, Peach Oolong Tea with Mango Jelly, Longan Jujube Tea with Herbal Jelly, and Roasted Chestnut Milk Tea with Brown Sugar Boba. Among the ones I had, the Rosehip Milk Tea with Coffee Popping Boba was my favorite!“
“I have been to this Cafe 3 times. Each time, I have ordered an Iced Latte with sugar-free Vanilla. All three times, the Lattes were delicious. I have not tried any pastries yet, but they all look great. There is seating inddor and outdoor. If you want a really good coffee drink or Pastry this is a great place to try.Vegetarian options: Coffee is for everyone.Parking: There is a free parking lot.Wheelchair accessibility: This is a wheelchair friendly cafe.“
“TeaDo is great. The tea is so fresh, and I really like the flavor in the beef bento entrees. It has competition with some of the places that serve bento. My personal favorites are the wintermelon jasmine, white peach aloe vera, and tiger milk, but they are all really good. Not overly sweet, but the flavor is there.“
“I've been wanting to try this place out for months. So glad I did. I picked up a mango and a lemon mochi donut. The texture makes them lighter and more chewy than a standard doughnut. Nice place to stop by for bubble-boba tea and a mochi donut. Decor inside is adorable.“
“This is a great place:#1 customer service. Tony and everyone there is welcoming and happy.#2 drinks and food. My kids love trying the different boba flavors and I like the Vietnamese iced coffee.Great place to hang out and bond with my daughters.“
“Tried the New Orleans Style Coffee Milk Tea and I liked it. It was a unique combination, mixing coffee and milk tea, which offered a refreshing change from the usual boba flavors. I also appreciated their everyday promotion of Buy 4, Get 1 free. They tend to give a bit more ice than other places, so keep that in mind.“
“I do not usually write reviews, but this place deserves a great review. The food is well cooked, not salty, and very delish!My favorite is the Ginger Lover entrée, PERFECT every time!I always takeout so I cannot speak for the atmosphere, I can say every time I go to pickup there are many waiting. I always order head for easy pickup, and the staff is always friendly.“
“I always get the Mango Pomelo Sago. I've tried a few others, but haven't found another one I like as much. I ordered a strawberry latte, but it tasted like the strawberry milkshakes I used to make at home. It was good, but not great.“
“I've discovered another favorite local pho spot here! Perfect for a lunch break, especially if you're in Reston, VA. The food and boba here are fantastic. My go-to's are their beef Phở and grilled pork Bánh Mì. Today I tried their weekly special, Bún Riêu, and it totally hit the spot. Will definitely be returning.“
“I'm not sure how a pho restaurant can stand-out. While there are one or two pho shops that stand out with tasty unique combinations, there isn't really that much to point out. But a couple very obvious and nice things I would point out. Pho-Nomenal (1) all-meats pho combo comes with a very GOOD range of meats and offal cuts, especially tondons and tripe {since a respectable all-meats combo pho bowl cannot have all meat and zero offal cuts} and (2) is hands-down the most affordable, and healthier meals in the entire One Loudoun complex. I am rather dissappointed with their spring/summer rolls where it's very short and filled with mostly lettuce and not herb leaf mixture.“
“Good bubble tea, good snacks to pick up quickly. Not the cheapest, but no bubble tea place is. The panda boba is relatively unique and is a nice change for people who want some variation.Parking: Around the corner, near Green Lizard Cycling.“
“This Gong cha had recently opened up in the Old Centreville Crossing, and as their other locations, their menu offers milk foam beverages, brewed tea, milk teas, smoothies, a marble series, and a coffee series with option to add various toppings.The place itself is pretty small, and I think there are only two small tables and a counter seating with about 3 stools; there are 2 kiosks, in which it seems that is the recommended way to place your order(s).I had the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with light ice and the Grapefruit Yogurt with light ice - both were well-prepared. The Brown Sugar had a good strong tea flavor, but could have used more of the brown sugar syrup. The Grapefruit Yogurt was great, as it was the right mix of the both and was super refreshing.Even though there was a line, the staff were able to make the drinks pretty efficiently.Plenty of parking in the large plaza lot.+order via the kiosks+plenty of parking+located in the Old Centreville Crossing“
“This is a great place to relax and enjoy some Asian-inspired beverages, desserts, macaroons, and other snacks. The interior is clean and pleasant, with minimalist decor and light wood furniture, providing a view of the parking lot. Seating options are limited inside so that it can fill up quickly. The staff is generally friendly, and they serve your order quickly. I am happy that more dessert options like this are available in the area.“
“This is a great idea that I hope becomes more popular. The Vietnamese food has been great for everything I tried, this last time it was noodle bowl with grilled pork, which was perfect. The salted iced coffee took some getting used to but is now one of my favorites. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you’re looking for some place different for lunch.“
“Bubble Mochi is really good. I like the chocolate donut and mango yogurt smoothies. Servers were energetic and smiling. Also, they have some cute squishmellos for sale. The decor inside bubble mochi is really cute, and reminds me of a coffee shop in Tokyo,“
“Amazing food, I only eat fish and they accommodate to my dietary lifestyle. The serves was very patient with me and did not mind me asking question. Highly recommend this place. They also did not charge me more by replacing the meat for tofu.Dietary restrictions: I’m mostly vegan but I can eat fish once’s a week.“
“Love this place! So glad there's a legit good bubble tea in this area! I definitely like this place more than Tea Break. I haven't had their food yet which is why I'm giving a 4 but their 5 are definitely a 5 star. The purple purple is my absolute favorite but any of their milk and fruit teas are good and they don't skimp.“
“Excellent teas! I've stopped in a couple times to try different teas. I dropped by one evening after work to grab a pick me up, and I really enjoyed the Peach Green Tea that I ordered. It was ordered with 50% sweetness and light ice. I came in another time to grab some teas for my parents to try. I ordered the: Raspberry Tea, Sunrise Tea, Taro Milk Tea, Winter Melon Fruit Tea and [another] Peach Green Tea. All were at 50% sweetness with no ice. My parents loved the Taro Milk Tea and the Sunrise Tea. They liked the other ones as well, but just preferred the two.The same employee took my order the two times I was there. Really good service for sure. They are ready with recommendations if you aren't sure what to get or are not familiar with their menu. They are friendly and patient. The shop is clean and has a handful of tables and good number of chairs. Cute decorations and awesome wall murals: very photo-friendly! LOL.Best boba tea shop I've tried in the area so far. I would definitely come back to try other flavors.“
“Never been here before. Interior is adorable. Bought a strawberry lemonade with popping boba for me and a banana milk tea for the kiddo. Also some macarons for dessert to tonight and a Cookie Monster donut for the kiddo to have in store. Employee at the register was super sweet and helpful. Stop by and see for yourself!“
“I have ordered from her multiple times. Fast service, milk tea teas are good, and the tapioca pearls are nice and chewy. My personal favorite is the taro but all of them are good.I'm giving 4 stars since when I went one day at 8:20(40 minutes before closing) it seemed that they were already closed.“
“Momo Spot deserves a 5-star rating for its exceptional momos, offering a wide variety with both traditional and innovative fillings. The ambiance is cozy, complemented by prompt and friendly service. It's a top choice for both momo lovers and newcomers, providing a memorable culinary “
“Really adorable and fun decor! I can only speak for the bubble tea which is great- not the food which I've yet to try. It's a little expensive but the drinks are worth it. My only complaint is that one cashier in this location was rude to me once, made a strange comment, although I think he left. Watch the customer service. Otherwise I'd totally recommend it and go back.“
“The best experience! My family ordered a couple bubble teas, an Strawberry drink, and the custard waffles.The waffles were freshly naked with a sweet cream. The bubble teas were great with warm balls of tapioca. I ordered a Strawberry drink that I didn't care for. The person behind the counter noticed my displeasure and offered me a different drink. The new drink- mango smoothie. It was also amazing- chunks of mango I'm a creamy smoothie.We will definitely return, not only for the food/,drinks- but for the amazing customer service..“
“Their food is impeccably delicious.However, the employees are not friendly and do not take good care of the customers.So it's a little disappointing.If they care about customer satisfaction, it will definitely be the best Vietnamese restaurant in the area.“
“Came here for a Thai tea latte and I wasn't disappointed. I ordered ahead through the app. Yes, there is an app. However, make sure you get the one for the DMV and not just the regular one. Anyway, I walked in in my drink was ready. It tasted delicious. Enough said. I would absolutely be back.“
“This is a great place to dine in and enjoy authentic Thai cuisine. It was easy for my family to be seated, as I noticed most of their business is to go. The waitress was very polite and perfectly fluent in both English and Thai. We had Crab Rangoon, Calamari, Chicken Fried Rice, Pad See Ew, and Crying Tiger. Each made fresh, delicious, and authentic Thai style, full of flavor. I highly recommend any of those dishes.“
“Good-sized portion of drunken noodles, as well as basil fried rice. Chicken satay and sauces were great, the additional spicy condiments also added flavor to the good food :) Staff were friendly and food arrived on time. Lovely time at the place.Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten-free, egg-free options.Kid-friendliness: I like the teddy bear on their logo :)“

“I showed up to the store around 9:30 am on a Sunday not knowing that the store opened at 11. I called the phone number with no answer but received a texted message from the owner or manager. We had a short conversation and I explained that I stopped in for a specific birthday gift. He called his employee Lara to notify her that I would be coming back. Lara was fantastic! Friendly and informational. Great customer service all around!“
“Poki DC is a good place to have salads meals combo with shakes and smoothies. The quality of foods and quantity of a single serving is good. It's good enough doe a single person's appetite. The veggies and meats are fresh. Shakes too are quite exotic, good looking and good in taste as well.“
“I’m part Chinese so this review comes from a person with lots of Chinese food eating experience.The best Chinese food around. Hồng Kông style dishes. Authentic taste. The ROADT Duck is out of this world! No need to head to Chinatown for delicious Cantonese flavor food. Definitely not your standard takeoutRestaurant is small with some tables. Reminds me of the mom and pop restaurants in chinatown New York City. The sisters Ting and Yan are great running the front. Dad cooks in the back.If you enjoyed Gokden King in Sterling, now closed, you will love The food here!Thank you for being so close and so good!Vegetarian options: Plenty of except vegetarian dishesKid-friendliness: Easy and safe for kidsParking: Large shopping center with parking. There’s a few that’s designated for the restaurant only. There’s also parking on the side of the restaurant too.Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs to navigate. Plenty of room to move about insideDietary restrictions: Plenty if gluten free options!“

“We love supporting the local business. Staff is friendly., services prompt and the pho broth is delicious. We typically attend for the lunch special which includes a soda and appetizer roll and large broth for $14!The atmosphere is certainly not high class, but with good quality food and pricing it doesn’t have to be!“
“I visited Gong Cha on Tuesday, 8/29, and was pleasantly surprised by the excellent customer service provided by two young boys working there. They were able to answer my questions and help me decide what to get. Their friendly demeanor and efficient service made my bubble tea experience even more enjoyable. The drinks were flavorful and refreshing, making it a delightful visit overall.(The peach lychee fruit drink with peach jelly is the drink that was recommended)“
“I have been a regular at this establishment for over a year now and this is my favorite restaurant for ramen by far!!! I’ve been to Japan and tried 5 different ramens(all good) however, none of them compared to Araki ramen! My order every time: Tonkatsu ramen with chicken and mango snow with mango jelly( bubble tea)! I bring all my friends and family here and I will continue to support this establishment for years to come!The whole staff is just as amazing as the food. Special s/o to Sun for being an amazing waiter and having the best attention to detail!!“
“Upon entering the store if very small but very cozy. I ordered their Bubble Milk Tea and Rose Milk tea. it was good, pretty sweet but their flavor was lacking a little for my taste but their boba was good and I liked it relative to the other options at the mall.“
“We absolutely had the best experience here today. Lattes/cappucccinos were amazing!! Really smooth, great flavor, fresh. Boba drink my son got was also delicious and not too sweet like some places make them. The customers service was AMAZING!!! The lady was the sweetest. We will def be regulars. I cannot wait to come try the Mochi donuts and treats :)“

“This is a stall in the middle of the food court on the top level of the mall (where AMC) is. It's in the middle of the seating area, not along the back wall. I had a Croffle from here, although I cannot remember which one exactly but it was delicious. They only had one person working there at the time so I had to wait but not a very long time. Service to order was quick and easy.“
“One of my favorite places for boba. I come here about 2-3 times a month and have been doing so since 2019, so I can say the service varies. I've had nice cashiers and rude ones too, and sometimes I've been told that cash is accepted, while other times I am told that they are not taking cash. Personally, if cash is not accepted, there should be a policy stating that. My favorite thing to get from here is probably the jasmine milk tea or the thai tea. The virgin mojitos are also pretty good along with Georgia on My Mind. Chocolate tea is a bit meh, and the brown sugar tea is a bit overly sweet. I miss the mochi donuts that they used to sell, but the cream croffle is just as amazing.I love this place so much, and it always perks me up after a rough day.“
“Yummy yummy! Not my fave spot but it was good! I'd vote a solid choice. I like that they gave some unique drink options I would've never thought I'd like. The dark choco chip boba was delish! I like that they have a crunch to it cause there's like chocolate cookie crumbs at the bottom. The cookie surprisingly stayed crunchy!!! I got there signature Tiger brown sugar. The service was alright just the standard transaction. The ambiance is super casual and there's seating inside. Overall I'd be back!“
“There a lot of pho restaurants and it is very hard to discern the differences between them. It really just comes down to personal preferences when it comes to the which pho shop is the best. Teabreak has certainly become my favorite pho/noodle shop in the entire northern Virginia area - why?Well, Teabreak has 2 standout menu items I cannot find anywhere else (except Eden Center in Annandale but the traffic is just too unbearable at times). These are (a) weekend only 'Hue Style Spicy Noodle Soup' which comes with many yummy meat cuts and pork blood-cakes!! and (b) flan with coffee jelly boba. These two items are ridiculously tasty and unforgettable. Why aren't don't we have more places that add blood-cakes to noodle bowls ..... and why aren't we all adding coffee jelly as a toping to cakes, flans, meringues, and other desserts! Kudos for Teabreak for staying true to innovation and tradition.“
“This place is AMAZING. the milk tea is so good and the brown sugar boba are awesome. Super chill and comfortable atmosphere. great place to come on a. Rainy do or after a long day at work or to work at. In my opinion it has a better atmosphere for working than a coffee shop. Parking was very available and the workers are super nice and will try to help u as best they can. If they got something wrong they are willing to remake it for no extra cost.“
“I come here at least once a week, I really like how cozy and clean the cafe is. I also really like their drinks, my favorite drinks are the tiramisu boba milk tea and the osmanthus rice milk tea. I notice they have a variety of tea options, and they only use lactose free milk which is nice for people who have lactose intolerant.“
“I can go alllll across the lands for boba tea and STILL, Kung Fu tea is the top as far as taste. I really enjoy the ginger milk tea, the prices have increased which is wild that the cost of a drink is equivalent to the cost of a low end meal but, we all cave into a nice treat sometimes. Sometimes I walk in but more than often I order on door dash. At one point I ordered a ginger boba milk almost daily. I would sometimes ask for light boba and extra ginger because there is no option to choose extra ginger, to be considerate I substituted that I would accept less boba. Most of the time, the staff accommodate me and make the small adjustment; however, there is one employee who sometimes when they see my order refuse. I'm really not sure why and it seems like an adjustment that would be an easy switch especially when I also provide tip. I'm not sure if the tip goes to only the driver or the business but as often as I order there I was surprised my request seemed to be bothersome to this particular individual. To the employees who saw my request and take into account how often I order, thank you greatly, may God continue to bless you. And thank you for recognizing that you can play a role in how well a person's day goes just by your treatment to them and showing kindess. Sometimes their notes to me even include "Thank you Jazmin =)" and it's so adorable to me. The ambiance is nice inside, there is limited seating and often music. The staff are usually pretty upbeat and enjoying each other along with singing to the music which is so cute to witness!“
“This place is so cute! They have a mini photo booth area when you first walk in. Made to order sundaes and snowflake sundaes. I tried the brownie snowflake sundae and added nutella and it was delicious! You order on the Kiosk so you don’t really get any customer service or see any workers until they open the blinds to call out your order number. The bathroom is very clean and pretty too. Lots of places to sit and eat your desserts“
“The popcorn chicken was so good, and a big portion too! The beef noodle soup was ok - the broth was flavorful and the beef plentiful, but the noodles themselves were overcooked and mediocre. Would definitely be back though just for the popcorn chicken, and maybe to try other dishes.“
“This place is amazing for their fantastic customer service and the warm atmosphere they create. All the team members are extremely friendly and welcoming, and the quick service and consistently fresh drinks make it my top choice. I find myself coming here often because of the friendly vibe and the calm and cozy environment is perfect for meeting friends or studying solo!!!!!!!If I were to recommend a drink to someone new to KFT, I'd definitely suggest trying the Taro Milk Tea with Nato Jelly or Aloe Jelly instead of the regular pearls. Lastly, I can't help but express my love and gratitude for this place and I want to give a shout-out to all the hardworking team members there! :) <3“
“ordered a taro milk tea with honey boba as a recommendation from the cashier and i wasn’t disappointed! it was so good and the service was so quick and fast. the drink took less then a minute to be made. All the workers had a smile on their faces. will be coming back!“
“I love Argos!! The employees are so nice and accommodate if you don't like your drink. I love the iced caramel latte , it's the best latte u can find on campus. The only complaint I have is the fact that they always run out of stuff like lids or cold drink cups. They also run out of the food pretty quickly. Over all it's pretty good:)“
“I entered this place out of curiosity and I liked its style and originality. Ideal for a snack or as a dessert. There is no place to sit and share in the place. You should definitely eat it in your car, office or home. The girl who attends is very friendly and polite. Ample parking space.“
