“They treat their doordashes really well they're very friendly very prompt. It inspired us to go and eat with a bunch of friends and hang out in the restaurant. We had a great time the food was really good I enjoyed the goisa and the chicken teriyaki the most.“
“Walking into this establishment was like entering a portal into a cozy little cafe and it was really peaceful. The service was excellent and the staff was super sweet. I got the shoyu shrimp ramen and it was excellent. Will definitely return. Thanks to the staff!“
“I like this place and want some desserts after eating at the Cambodian and Chinese Restaurants nearby. There is a large selection of drinks and desserts, but there are not enough pictures to go off.I don't know what to order, likewise with my wife. I think if there were more pictures on the wall, it would make the order much easier for us.Well, I took some pictures of the large selection of drinks they have. I hope it'll help.“
“Out of the 8 drinks we had ordered, just one fell short. The dalgona was pretty much just milk. You could barely taste any coffee. Other than that, the slushes, honeydew milktea as well as all of the taro options they had were amazing. Asian pear smoothies was the star. It was flavorful without being overly sweet. Staff were quick and knowledgeable.“
“You’ll find that their pho is among the very best in the puget sound region.We also had the pot stickers which was perfectly prepared.Service is also top notch!Parking is limited so come early or come late to avoid the hassle.Those three dishes cost us $50. A bit spendy but so worth it!!“
“Ever since I moved away from home I craved that warm comfort Vietnamese food gave me. This is both affordable and comforting. Very flavorful and filling. The beef pho is my favorite and the caramelized salmon banh mi is to die for. Highly recommend! Will be coming back often!!“
“I have absolutely nothing bad to say about bambu. Ever.Me and my family have been going there for years and years and no drink has ever disappointed. From vietnamese coffee, to a strawberry white rabbit, they have drinks even the pickiest of people will enjoy.(While it sounds simple, I suggest trying a smoothies like the passion in love or very berry and adding rainbow jellies or popping boba. You'll thank me later)The store is adorned with studio ghibli, pokemon, animation, and just generally cute themes! They also offer sweet treats like waffles and fresh mochi cupcakes. (Dont worry they have ice cream too)Their staff is so kind, helpful, and hard working. If you don't know what to order, or you are wondering what goes into the drinks ingredient wise dont hesitate to ask! The staff knows the menu inside and out and will be more than willing to talk to you about it.Also with so many places asking for tips now, its hard to know when to tip well and who deserves it. Let me help you out, the staff are mostly younger people high school age to like mid 20s. (This is because the owner tries to give jobs to students who struggle to find somewhere that will hire them as their first job) these kids are putting themselves through college, or trade school, they have dreams of moving to their own apartments and being able to afford them, etc. These are the people who deserve tips without a doubt. So if you can afford it, just click that 15% button and know that its going to people who will genuinely use it!Honestly, I've seen some boba tea shops that had drinks double the price that just weren't nearly as good. The bambu staff is also fairly heavy handed with the toppings (trust me, that extra .50 cents for your fav add-in is so worth it)Also, one of my favorite things is their rewards program. You actually earn rewards and real discounts! This isn't starbucks folks. You don't have to buy 8000 frickin drinks just to earn a free add-in. You can earn free mochi cupcakes and a free large upgrade on your drink!Bambu is also involved in the community here in Tacoma and is available for catered events and holidays like the much anticipated lunar new year celebration and halloween when they encourage all ages to show up all dressed up and snap a pic with their drinksThe space itself is so well kept and clean. The kitchen area is honestly one of the cleanest I've seen and you better believe that staff is wiping down counters, floors, and doing dishes every chance they get!The ingredients are fresh and tested for freshness every morning before opening. I have never felt there was a risk of any old, moldy, or expired ingredients making their ways into my drinks or food.Overall, bambu is the kind of place that makes you feel like a kid again. There is no leaving the store without a smile on your face and I swear your eyes will light up like a cartoon character when you try the drinks*special note: Although bambu is a chain, the owner of this specific Tacoma store is a ridiculously nice, hardworking, dedicated lady who is often behind the counter or working in the back alongside her staff. I see her put in so much effort to create this happy place for people and Tacoma is so much better as a community with her as a part of it. If you see her, be sure to say hi :)Kid-friendliness: There are menu specific items that are there for kids, when it comes to community involvement bambu does costume contests for halloween, toy drives in the winter, and kids art contests in the summer!“
“Friendly staff, great atmosphere, reasonable wait times. Love the playlist. They have board games and puzzles. Best Vietnamese Coffee I've ever had. It's strong without being overly bitter. I get the Ube Ca phe every time I go. My husband loves the black sugar boba.“
“Second time here, just moved to the area and ventured out for some thing to have on the road. Pleasantly started with the extra clean environment in the little shop, the donuts are so pretty you don’t even want to eat them you wanna take pictures of them??? anyway the flavors and the consistency of the donuts are the best I’ve had! Perfect sizes as well. Sometimes donut shops give you this huge donut and it’s full of air and it’s just too much. These are a little more dense, but chewy and the perfect size. I love the colorful pieces of art, and they are just divine! Great customer service too! So sweet the staff is. Also they have homemade decadent ice cream that is beyond me! Really unique flavors just like their donuts like lavender and things like that. I can’t say enough about this place. by the way, it’s a small shop so a few people fit in there at the same time but it’s plenty of room if it’s not crowded. Here’s a pic of the two we got, vanilla bean and chocolate, there are many unique flavors available. Just talking about it I think I have to go there this morning?“
“I recently visited Pho Lewis Vietnamese Fusion and ordered their #1 lunch special, which included Chicken Teriyaki and Sweet and Sour Chicken with Rice. The experience was truly memorable, and I'm compelled to share my thoughts.From the moment the dishes were served, the aroma captivated my senses, promising flavors that did not disappoint. The Chicken Teriyaki was perfectly cooked, with a beautifully balanced sauce that was neither too sweet nor too salty, complementing the tender chicken pieces excellently. The Sweet and Sour Chicken was a delightful contrast, offering a tangy and slightly sweet flavor that enhanced the succulent chicken, making every bite a pleasure. The rice served alongside was fluffy and perfectly steamed, serving as a great base for both dishes.The portion sizes were generous, ensuring a satisfying meal that was well worth the price. What made the experience even more enjoyable was the ambiance of the restaurant and the prompt, courteous service from the staff.I highly recommend Pho Lewis Vietnamese Fusion to anyone looking for delicious Vietnamese fusion cuisine. Whether you're a fan of traditional Vietnamese dishes or looking for a tasty twist on classics like Chicken Teriyaki and Sweet and Sour Chicken, this place will not disappoint. Their dedication to quality, flavor, and customer satisfaction shines through in every dish, making it a must-visit restaurant in Lakewood.“
“Just found this gem today. Totally addicted to their glazed old fashioned donut. The service was exceptional. Family owned and SO many yummy items behind the glass. The young lady who served me was sweet and adorable. They have hot food, too. It smelled divine.“
“Best boba tea in Gig Harbor! The atmosphere is always welcoming and relaxed whenever I come in and the food is in my budget but high quality! The cashier is always super friendly and doesn't rush me to order at all either. I highly recommend the Thai iced tea for first timers (-: ❤️Vegetarian options: Has a delicious tofu pho and also lemongrass tofu, and a seafood option as well.Parking: Plenty of parking space in front of the store and the parking lot next to the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: Friendly to wheelchair users, tables have plenty of open space between them and an open side to sit at for wheelchair users.“
“BobaLust in Tacoma is one of my favorite Boba joints in Washington. My go-to order is the OG Milk Tea Boba. It’s always perfectly made and delicious!BobaLust has 9 Washington locations. I have visited both of the Tacoma locations. I was especially happy to discover this newest location near the Tacoma Mall because it’s much easier to get to than the downtown location, and it has free parking.Highly Recommended!!!“
“I got the braised beef noodle soup and the hot chili wontons. Soup was the bomb. The way the food come in the to go bowls is amazing. The noodles are on the bottom with a plastic covering, the. The meat and veggies on top. So if you are taking it home your food is STILL fresh! Broth was perfect and I got it spicy. Meat and veggies were perfect as well!Wontons were GREAT!! I put the chili oil in my soup at the broth got lower and put the wontons in my soup as well! Overall!!! I will be Back! Again and again!! If you are looking for a sweet spot to get some outstanding foodTake a trip and enjoy!!!“
“We LOVE Pearl Tea. The staff here are beyond sweet, extremely accommodating, and speedy. My wife and I have become regulars and this crew has gone out of their way so many times to make us feel special (most recently on my wife’s birthday). Their shop is cozy, cute, and consistent. As is the case with most bubble tea spots, there are some syrups, high sweetness, and strong flavors, so you’ll need to find what you like. But the boba itself is great (good size, good texture) and I’ve never had any problems with the freshness of the tea. They deserve your business and some love too!“
“We decided after numerous failures elsewhere to try this modest establishment for their pho. We had the Vegetarian and Beef rib and brisket. We gave the pho a strong 4 stars. There's always room for improvement and a 5-star pho has to rock my socks off. My wife really enjoyed her vegetable pho and the large serving would have fed a small horse. My brisket was tender and the flavor was as expected. The rib was pleasantly seasoned perfectly to set itself apart from the brisket. Maybe a little more care to prep the brisket as much of it came in huge clumps. Awkward. The broth did not disappoint. It was adequately present and not weak nor lacking flavor. I had the passion paradise tea and it was perfect! It was sweet, yet clean and refreshing. It paired well with the beef and herbs in the pho. Dining area was clean. Service was attentive without being overboard or lacking. We were grateful there was no TV, and while the music was good, like all the other restaurants, it was too loud, making conversation difficult. People want conversation without having to be loud. This alone will cause me to not return to many restaurants for dining in. We'll return soon and see if there were any improvements but I think a sold 4-stars is not bad.“
“I come here frequently for my lunch and really enjoy the lemongrass tofu bánh mi and the Thai tea drink. Honestly, the drink is pretty big for the price - especially compared to some places.The workers are always so nice, especially the lady. Very friendly and polite and I love how fast the food gets prepared.“
“Some of the widest variety and best quality bubble tea in the area! Everything is fairly priced and the service is quick and friendly.The one and only critique I have is that there isn’t much seating. So, if you’re looking for somewhere to sit and hang out for a while, consider going somewhere else.But! My friends and I keep coming back here because the tea is affordable and tastes amazing. We love Hi Bubble Tea!Vegetarian options: I think that anything on the menu can be made Vegan with non-dairy milk substitutes.Dietary restrictions: Vegan-friendly!Kid-friendliness: Very bubbly and kid-friendly atmosphere!“
“I absolutely love Sip + Spoon but I go for the Poke bowls! They are amazingly delicious, always so Fresh and I love that they are completely customizable. I highly recommend their Ahi tuna and the shrimp.Dietary restrictions: I have an intolerance to salicylic acid but they do a great job keeping the ingredients separate so I don't worry about eating here. They also have MANY choices that are sal-negligable!“
“I came late in the evening, the girls were very friendly and smiling, they quickly prepared my order.It was my first time in this establishment and I really liked everything, my tea was excellent and I was very delighted with the waffles, I will definitely come back again“
“Bubble tea is so good! Love coming here. I think one thing to improve is the wait time. I've waited almost 10 minutes for 1 bubble tea and no one was in front of me in line.... But they have an app and you can order ahead of time so maybe that's best if you don't wanna wait to long.“
“I was skeptical when I went in at first, but the spicy tuna was fire! Def try the house sauce and the ponzu sauce. If they have the scallops. Don't skip! And you can get bubble tea!! Fast forward, I've been 3 times in as many days. It's delish!“
“This is the view from your car as you wait for them to text you I gave them 3 stars for service because you literally do everything on the kiosk touchscreen. Love the donuts and the Korean corn dogs. Closed Tuesdays So keep that in mind.“
“A bit on the pricey side but these donuts are super delicious and drinks are great too. I don't do boba much but my kids love it. I usually get a green tea/matcha smoothie with 25 percent sweetness. I forget the actual lingo on the menu but the staff was very helpful and patient with us newbies.“
