Supreme Banh Mi: I really enjoyed the supreme banh mi! The tangy, crunchy veggies paired perfectly with the extremely flavorful BBQ pork. The meat is grilled to perfect caramelization, savory and sweet with charred ends. The bread has a crunchy outside and is easy to bite into, not overly chewy.
Egg Tart: The egg tart is really flaky with a milky center that’s great for dessert.
Taro Milk with Coconut Milk: The boba is rich with brown sugar flavor, and the taro milk is smooth, like a yogurt-like slush with a very unique texture. You can taste the earthy and nutty taro flavor.
Coffee: The coffee is full-bodied, rich, and deep.
Mango Lassi: The mango lassi is smooth with refreshing mango puree.

A very unique bubble tea store that serves more than just tea aswell. I’ve tried almost everything here and I can’t say anyone one of them is bad, all of it’s outstanding to drink either as is or with a meal.
I've been to this spot many times but never got the chance to review them. They serve many types of bubble teas. They have specialty flavors that come about sometimes. I feel like their options are more geared towards tea drinkers and those who like savory teas. They don't have a lot of good sweet options or fruit milk teas. It's mainly a takeout spot and the service was okay, they don't give much flexibility in customizing drinks. I prefer more sweet and creamy bubble teas and this spot doesn't have too many options like that. This time I tried a bay ridge which is advertised as a mango lassi type drink. It was not what I was expecting and tasted more like yogurt than anything else. Mango lassi is usually creamy, sweet, and mango taste but this was very different. Maybe some people like this type of taste but it wasn't for me.
I have purchased drinks with friends from the Brooklyn location. That was the reason why I decided to go to the Astoria location. I live a distance away from both, but wanted one of the drinks because I enjoyed it the first time. However, the Astoria location was disappointing. I purchased quite a few drinks and honestly, I thought that the quantity of Boba in both of my large drinks were too low for the large sizes. I couldn’t tell if there was a signature cream in one of them. I was disappointed. To me part of the fun is allowing the customer to mix their drinks, not doing it for them. My experience at the Brooklyn location was better. The drinks were delicious there. I can’t say I felt the same at the Astoria location. Definitely way too much ice in the drinks. I’m willing to give them a chance again and revised my review but it needs to be better.
best bubble tea/milk tea in NYC period. I'm addicted to the lavender milk tea. I love that they use real teas and fruits instead of powder mixes. The only qualm I have is that the sizes are ridiculously small.
Tea and milk is the absolute BEST. Their bubble teas are made with real ingredients instead of fake syrups like so many other bubble tea stores. Everything I've ever had from there is delicious, the staff is always kind and friendly, and they come out with seasonal items as well which are always equally as delicious. Strawberry cheesecake? yum! Pumpkin Spice tea latte? yum! Cocoa oolong? yum! Strawberry matcha?! YUM! Do yourself a favor and just try it. You won't regret it
Editing to say: If you're concerned your drink will be too sweet ask for less sugar! I always get 25%!
