“Fifth time at this store, the drinks are good and consistent each time. Customer service is friendly. I almost missed this amazing boba store after reading some of the negative reviews about their services, but nah totally good! Maybe some people just got mad and decided to leave bad review when they can’t get what they want. I honestly think if you can’t find your drinks here just go elsewhere instead of leaving a misrepresenting review of a small business. Keep up the great work! Cheers!“
“I have been seeing and getting food from Esther since I was a little kid! The food has always been great quality and well priced for how much food you get! I only ever come to her to get teriyaki!! She always is so amazingly generous and kind anytime I’ve gone there, always taking the extra step! As a senior in high school this scholarship helps me cover the cost of graduating and more. I will forever will always come to her!!! Thank you Esther“
“Exceptional experience at this Indian restaurant! Impeccably clean environment with a friendly and polite staff. The gentleman assisting with orders was incredibly helpful. Portions were generous and the food was delicious. Highly recommend for a satisfying Indian meal. We will definitely be coming here for our Indian food cravings!“
“Cute little bubble tea shop and friendly staff. I got the Very Strawberry Green Tea and the Red Guava Green Tea. I got them both at 50% sugar level, so they weren't too sweet at all. The tapioca texture was good, but there didn't seem to be a good enough amount of toppings; I would need to double it next time. My bf got the Oreo Cookie Smoothie and added vanilla ice cream and whey protein, and he really enjoyed it. You barely see any bubble tea places that offer protein as an add-in.“
“Tobi's Tea is a hidden gem in the Lynnwood area that we stumbled upon while waiting in line at Alderwood mall. It's conveniently located nearby, making it a perfect spot for a refreshing boba break while shopping. Parking is a breeze with plenty of free spots available right in front of the shop.Despite its small size and limited seating, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. Most customers opt for takeout, so it never feels too crowded. The menu offers a range of options, including recommended drinks and a build-your-own choice, allowing for customization of tea type, sugar level, toppings, and milk preference.I particularly enjoyed the hot boba with dark roasted oolong tea and salted cheese crema, while my girlfriend tried the famous Ube Latte with boba. Both drinks were well-crafted and flavorful, with the ube latte impressing us with its use of real purple yam instead of artificial flavoring.Although the wait for our drinks was a bit longer than expected, the quality of the beverages made it worth it. The oolong tea had a rich tea flavor that complemented the creamy crema perfectly, and the ube latte was a delightful surprise with its authentic taste.My only minor disappointment was the lack of a less-ice option, as I generally prefer warmer beverages. Nevertheless, Tobi's Tea has quickly become our go-to spot in the Lynnwood area, and we plan to visit more frequently in the future. If you're in the area and craving some top-notch boba, I highly recommend giving Tobi's Tea a try.“
“Phó shop owned by a mom and pop literally. They have big portions and great food. Small restaurant, but packs a punch! Parking can be kind of a challenge, but its worth the hassle.Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options, like veggies or tofu“
“Bobae is one of my go-to spots, especially when the sun is out. It's a quick walk from the waterfront. While it can be busy, there are times when I get to have a chat with the baristas. Alexis is pretty chill. We often talk about music.“
“Ugh I wish I could rate this 5 stars because the tea itself was very delicious. I got the taro milk tea with lychee jelly. But it cost me $9 and was soo small. I was warned about this lack of value, thought I'd be okay with it, and was still really disappointed.BTW when ordering for pick up, the time to pickup is not always accurate. My tea was done like 10 minutes before the time I was given, but there was no indication other than going in to ask.“
“Stepping into this family-run tea business felt like entering a haven of warmth. From the moment I crossed the threshold, I was enveloped in the comforting embrace of hospitality and tradition. The atmosphere was infused with a sense of heritage, as if each cup of tea held within it generations of knowledge and craftsmanship passed down through the family. The selection was diverse and carefully curated, showcasing a blend of classic favorites and unique flavors that tantalized the senses. But what truly set this business apart was the personal touch of the family members themselves, who greeted customers with genuine warmth and shared their wealth of tea wisdom with enthusiasm. Whether it was a recommendation tailored to my taste preferences or a story behind a particular blend, every interaction felt like a glimpse into the rich tapestry of tea culture. In a world dominated by mass-produced beverages, this family-run tea business stood as a beacon of authenticity and connection, inviting tea lovers to embark on a journey of discovery and delight with every sip. It was that good, I came back but this time, I was convinced to try a different flavor.“
“Tra Kirkland doesn’t just have a nice atmosphere but amazing drinks. Our children enjoyed the strawberry lemonade and blue lemonade. We even splurged on the cute robot cups. The lemonades weren’t too sweet, slightly tart and very refreshing. My husband enjoyed the viet coffee and I got the coconut viet coffee. The coffee was smooth, flavorful and cooling on a warm day. They have drinks that cater to every preference from coffee to teas. I would highly recommend this shop.“
“Found this cute little coffee house when scrolling around the Old Bellevue main street. They have interesting yet unique coffee drinks! Just keep in mind that coffees are quite sugary if you’re not into too sweet stuffs. The mango mint iced tea was less sugary. We might come back to try other drinks.Parking: We parked over Downtown park as the place doesn’t have any parking available.“
“Special stop here to order the drink I love along with the Red Bean pancakes!They have alot of cute local artist stuff that was superb to see as an option to buy here.Cute key chains, and darling cards.Owner gets my business over Redmond 100% so much more kind and clean and spacious.“

“Honestly a great place. Their boba teas are fantastic. I absolutely love their peach milk tea. But on top of that they have good customer service AND really friendly. In addition to being super fast. I've had it delivered and I've also ordered in store it's great every time. Well done guys.!“
“Such a great find; Walking in to find a very calming atmosphere; soft music, great drinks (The drink list and Combinations wonderful).Perfect for kids and Diabetics due to being able to adjust the Sugar/sweetness levels. Also the lids are heated onto the cup for a perfect seal.After hurting my back and having to use my cane; it's perfectly accessible to walk around AND having soft chairs.If you haven't visited this place yet; I highly suggest the visit!Kid-friendliness: Like I mentioned in the main comment.ADJUSTABLE SUGAR LEVELS (Yes I used caps to get the emphasize the clarity).Plenty of pictures for the littles one to see.Wheelchair accessibility: Perfect spacing for Wheelchairs; several tables for one to pull up to (Both front and back of the store)“
“I really love this place. The staff are really nice and just the place itself is really nice. There is usually music and games that you can play while drinking your drink. Sometimes the drinks take a while to get because there are a lot of other people but it is worth it!“
“Food was delicious and the owners are soooo nice and gracious! Even tho it's a bit far out for me from Redmond downtown, I'd definitely make a trek out to sammamish to eat here again! We tried the garlic cabbage rice and the pad see ew and can't wait to try their chicken rice next time!“

“Skinny Ds is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm smile and a welcoming atmosphere. The variety of frozen yogurt flavors is impressive, catering to every palate, whether you're a classic vanilla lover or crave adventurous combinations. What truly sets Skinny Ds apart is their commitment to providing guilt-free indulgence. With their low-fat and sugar-free options, you truly get all the taste without the waist.

The colorful interior, that comfortable white coach, peppa pig constantly on the large flat screen TV, fruits paintings on the walls belong in a museum! Skinny Ds never fails to impress. RIP OJ Simpson, you would have loved skinny ds!“
“My brother put me on to their Cinnamon Toast Crunch drink and I get it every time we go there now. Kiddos had fun playing with the Jenga blocks and other stuff for them to mess around with. The "@" seating area was a nice touch. Super friendly staff and low wait times. Atmosphere is a 4 only because the music was having an issue and had to be put on someone's phone and it kept going in and out lol. Other than that I highly recommend this place!“
“This place is fun! It's a really good spot for a catch-up time with your friends, or if you're like my roommate and I, just a place to go to "get out of the house." The last time we were there, we noticed that there were board games in the front and got really excited. So we pulled one out and started playing. It created such a good vibe all around. The drinks are really good, and the service was extremely friendly. Because of the board games, my roommate and I will probably be back to hang out there since we live so close.“
“Loved this place - their salted caramel macarons are lovely. Perfect flavor. I had their chocolate ice cream as well, and it was very good, especially for only $3 (single scoop, no cone). I was pleasantly surprised that it had chocolate chips and brownie chunks. They give you a punch card for drinks, that will give you a free one eventually, which is very nice!Parking: There are stores with parking lots very close by, and some street parking. The parking right next to the store is private property.“
“Main reason I go here is for the waffles and the occasional drinks. Service is pretty fast on weekdays but can get really crowded towards the weekend. Going to this place during a weekend rush is kind of annoying, especially when other people are really loud and ordering A LOT of items.Workers here are pretty cool. If there is a problem with your order or drink, ask any of them about it and they will correct it fast.“
“I just had a superb original milk tea with cheese foam!The brown sugar pearls are cooked just right and are tender but not slimy. the original milk tea is great, light and malty without being sharp or bitter. The cheese foam knocked my socks off - elevated a high quality snack drink to a rich dessert!Staff was very patient with my bewildered curiosity about cheese foam and helped me pick a drink I am very happy with.“
“This place is awesome and their Boba is good! What makes them special is that they have delicious waffles with special dips, different kinds of drink options than usual Boba places and a nice atmosphere with friendly staff.My favorite is the fresh milk Ube tea with taro! So delicious and a little on the sweeter side. Their regular Boba milk tea tastes like it was freshly brewed. Very delicious. The waffles are both chewy and crunchy and very satisfying. Give them a try for dessert or a snack one day!“
“Came for dinner in the area and was happy to try out a new bubble tea place. Staff was friendly and was willing to blend a drink for my bf that wasn't on the menu. I got the Kiwi Fruit Tea and Grapefruit Green Tea. They were very refreshing and tasty; you can actually taste the bitterness of the grapefruit; it didn't taste fake and syrupy.“
“First off, the atmosphere is on point. I like how it’s unapologetically the owner’s style and not just bland cafe style.We got the Royal milk tea and the green tea with fresh milk. Both were very good, strong tea flavor, not too sweet. The green tea was refreshing.The egg tarts were also very good. A light dusting of cinnamon on top, super flaky and crispy crust.I’ll be stopping by every time I’m in the area for sure.“
“Absolutely delicious banh mi sandwiches, and under $10 which is hard to find. I got the grilled pork and my boyfriend got the lemongrass. The bread was not too hard, the amount of veggies were perfect and the meat was marinated so well. Both really good and will definitely be back.“
“Café Kleo has truly mastered the art of crafting delightful treats, and their Bubble Waffles are no exception. The waffles are artfully prepared, creating a feast for the eyes even before the first bite. The bubbly texture adds a unique and playful element to the overall aesthetic, making them a perfect treat for those seeking a visually appealing snack.The Bubble Waffles are served with a delicious combination of ice cream, fresh fruits, and other goodies that elevate the flavor profile. The contrast of the warm, crispy waffle with the cool, creamy ice cream and the burst of freshness from the fruits creates a harmonious blend of textures and tastes.“
“The store provides a convenient grab-and-go service along with serene background music and has room for up to 15 people to sit. Lots of open space to wait for your order. I tried original bubble waffles and avocado smoothies and the puff cream for the waffles. We really liked the puff cream and smoothies are okay.The puff cream is worthy try.“
“Love this boba shop. The staff are sweet and accommodating- I like their drinks because I know I cannot make them at home so it’s worth it. I always get fruity drinks and I love the Hawaiian or Mango and Passionfruit green tea with kiwi and aijiyu jelly! Always fresh aswell which is amazing!!!“
“Me and my sister had gotten 2 drinks few weeks ago based on the worker's recommendations. Although it was during a rush, the girl with hand tattoo/bangs was really knowledgeable and took her time explaining which drinks we should get based on what we usually like in flavor and texture wise. We had gotten 2 snake eyes that were accidentally made with honeydew but they happily remade it for us and that was greatly appreciated even though they were busy- Drinks were kind of expensive but to be expected nowadays. - Only giving this a 5 star because of superb customer service.- Beware though they do not take cash“

“A cute cafe and boba spot to stay and chill for a bit!The decor is pretty cute for a date with some nice backdrops and some cat plushies around the cafe. I had the bunny cake which was very light in flavor but super cute and the milk cream jasmine tea which was well balanced flavor-wise!Pricing is pretty fair for how cute the pastries are and for the drinks!“
“Stopped by for lunch and get food to go. Popcorn chicken had perfect amount of spice and crunch I liked, and the sides (tea egg, cucumber pickles, steamed choy, beansprouts) were good compliment to my rice.Also had an iced Honey Lemon Aloe tea to wash it down. Order was ready fast!“
“This place is amazing teriyaki. We in the Wedgewood neighborhood had I love Bento for many years and when it closed down, we didn't know where to go to get the same style of teriyaki. This place has the same homestyle, and better yet there Gyoza is fried, which is delicious. The chicken teriyaki and the spicy chicken are great and the atmosphere is really nice and homey. Definitely try this.!“
“Quite literally the best drinks I've had since I moved to Bellevue. I used to live near Westminster and Garden Grove CA and Vietnamese coffee and boba was in every corner. It's hard to compete with that area but Tra is even better. I tried the Boba Milk Tea and the Lychee with Chia. They were amazing but the Vietnamese Coffee is amazing. I implore you please give it a try and you'll never go anywhere else.“
“This boba store over any other stores in the states, or even comparative to boba places in cali. Flavor is just right. However, their boba is very different from other stores as I find that no matter how long you leave it in a slushie for, it won't get too hard to the point where you want to throw the whole cup away, unlike the boba pearls used in the majority of the stores. Plus, I LOVE the fact that they don't charge extra for boba add-ons. Not a greedy place like some other stores next to the 85 degrees bakery in alderwood. Good size, good taste, and good price. Forever my go to.“
“Passed by here a few times on my way to work and got curious. Went in and ordered a white peach oolong fresh milk tea with lychee and boba. Was quite refreshing and the mix of white peach and lychee was really good. Was in and out in about 5 minutesSecond time around got a Taro with boba and jelly, a Brown Sugar milk with salted cream, and a matcha with oat milk and boba. All three were very good, made quick and efficient.Ruby rose black tea is really good with lychee added to it.I wouldn’t recommend the spam wrap, it’s small as heck for the price and was microwaved so hot that it was 10 minutes before I could eat it not to mention touch it. The plastic wrap was melted against it so I had to tear it open rather than pull it open.“
“Just had the BBQ pork belly . Everything fresh and quality of the sandwich is outstanding, served with smiles. Lovely spot for delicious Banh mi (baguette with choice of meat and toppings) for a meal. Plus they have delicious Butterfly sunset tea,Black milk tea, Thai tea and fresh smoothies … All my favorite“
“Our neighborhood go to coffee experience! Always great service, coffee and company can be found here. Quiet off the main street location, but close to the Bellevue Downtown Park and Main Street restaurants and shops. They never disappoint in my 10 years of experience. Highly recommend a visit!“
“Didn't expect such lovely service, good wholesome, food, and " mom n pop eatery" kind of vibe in such an unlikely place- right next door to Fred Meyer's. The Pho there was just what was needed on this wintry Friday to kick off the weekend! We will be back to try out the rest of the menu.“
“We needed a little mid afternoon caffeine kick on our drive out of Seattle so we decided on this spot because it's near the freeway and they have online ordering. Selection - they have a very basic selection of boba teas and options. I'm lactose intolerant and decided to get their lemon black tea with boba and grass jelly. Service was friendly and they had our drinks ready upon arrival. The space of the cafe is really cute and clean which I appreciate it! Boba - I got my lemon black tea at 50% sugar and it was just right. Not overly sweet and very refreshing. My only downside was that I kept getting lemon seeds in my mouth, but at least they used fresh lemon. The boba was decent, not the best or worst I've had. The grass jelly though was just ok....the texture was a little weird from the usual.“
“We had a variety of food. Everything was fresh and for the most part tasty. A couple things I was I not a fan of one is their teriyaki sauce. The teriyaki chicken was moist and delicious, it was served with sticky rice which was also fresh and tasty. The salad on the other side hand seemed old and not very appetizing. We also had the gyoza's they were crispy and filled with pork and tasted amazing. My daughter had the shrimp teriyaki and said it tasted good she would order it again. Overall i would rate it at a 4 star . I will definitely go back and try other things.“
“A decent place to get your pho and banh mi fix. My wife always orders the veggie pho with beef broth, and it's loaded with toppings. I get the flank steak pho but am always disappointed with the meat. I know it's not filet mignon but I usually don't even eat it because it's bland and chewy. Banh mi sandwiches come loaded with pork so that's always appreciated.“
“Ten Seconds | BellevueAt Ten Seconds in Bellevue, you're in for a treat! From the mouthwatering popcorn chicken to the refreshing cucumber salad, every bite is bursting with flavor. Trust me, that cucumber salad is something special—it's got this kick that just wakes up your taste buds. And the popcorn chicken? Not too greasy, perfectly seasoned—just how you like it. Even when it's bustling around lunchtime, the service stays on point. Can't wait to swing by again and dig into their noodle dishes. Ten Seconds is definitely becoming my go-to spot in Bellevue for a satisfying meal if you’re in the mood for chicken and noodles.#dinewithme4fun“
“Hello all. Visiting this establishment changed my own life. I used to be a regular Sharetea Redmond customer, but after visiting the Bellevue franchise, I was blown away by the level of customer service. Krish was a very kind server who gave good recommendations. If you like boba or have any dignity, please visit Sharetea Bellevue.“
“Great boba tea, and a good staff. I usually love boba tea, and when I saw one of these open near my house I couldn't resist trying it out! I got a Honey milk tea with black tea, 130% sweetness (I have a sweet tooth), less ice, and boba pearls. The inside is pretty nice, with good music and some tables. Be aware that if you come in at a busy time, the tables will probably be full. They have fried chicken too, which is AMAZING! I suggest coming in for Lunch, and getting boba tea and chicken! 9/10, great for a snack or lunch!“
“This is my favorite place when I’m craving home cooked Chinese meals! I love their dim sum and congee, and their lunches are delicious. The duck bento and chow fun are our lunch faves, and they make great congee with fried dough and dim sum. My absolute favorite is their steamed rice rolls which is rare to find in Kirkland and they make it traditionally and fresh!“
“It gets really busy at times, but all the employees are working to keep up with it & still being nice to every customer. The bubble waffle was so good! It’s a big waffle for less than 6$. Will definitely be ordering more from here after I finish exams as a treat.“
“I go here almost every week, and usually have jasmine tea crystal which is great. Milk foam tastes good in general. And oreo drinks are as expected too. But taro drink lesser sweetened was a bad choice. Don’t get taro milk tea with only 30% sugar level. It tasted like bitter taro paste on bitter milk tea and had 0 sweetness. I had to filter out taro from the drink and add some honey to milk tea when I got home. Another one I didn’t love was camellia tea with 30% sugar level. Maybe their sweetness level isn’t high in general“
“I have been going to Happy Lemon in Redmond since they opened! I have been so impressed with the generosity of the owner and the kindness of the staff. My son chose to work towards a bubble tea as his reward to earn for his latest sticker chart. The staff was so welcoming and made a big celebration when we came in! They even drew a picture and wrote a special note on the cup to make it more memorable for him! The bubble tea is not only delicious, but the location is inviting, clean and the parking is convenient! I would absolutely recommend Happy Lemon Redmond to anyone who loves bubble tea!! 10/10“
“This dine in location is fabulous, but you know who specifically is freakin fantastic? Kieran. She’s the bomb and got me hooked on their lavender goodness, the Moonlight Saphire. When I want to try something new and let her know what I like and maybe not so into, she has never done me wrong. Whether it’s this location or Kirkland, love her smile and recommendations. She is amazing at explaining what’s new and what she’s serving if you have the fortunate pleasure of having her showcase your drink upon delivery. Thank you!!!“
