The actual drinks (the liquid portion) are wonderful but everything else isn't. I was drawn to the large, unique cups and when we arrived, there was a line extending outside the store. I figured that was a good sign at 5 PM when there are many other boba options available. I'm pretty judgmental with boba and like to try every place at least once, so it was easy to compare the experience. However, despite being intrigued by the wide cups, I understood the usability was worse because it's not as easy to hold (though it's not difficult) and the drinks do not fit in a standard cup holder.
First, boba as a topping is one of the most important factors to judge bubble tea holistically. The boba here is chewy and made well, but there is a lack of flavor. These tapioca balls are simply cooked and then placed into your drink - there's no sign of any extra love such as marinating in sugar, brown sugar, honey, or otherwise.
However, the tea shone. I got the jasmine milk tea and it tasted very authentic validating the usage of loose tea leaves while remaining creamy through dairy. I think they have a good balance there. It's also worth noting most milk alternatives do not cost extra (i.e. coconut milk) but one does, I forgot which one. That's a good sign. Toppings also don't cost extra so you're simply paying for the drink ($5 for standard drinks or $6 for more "advanced" recipes).
Friends got the strawberry jasmine, strawberry matcha, and orange creamsicle(?). The strawberry jasmine was basically strawberry fruit tea as it was overwhelmingly strawberry and no tea. The strawberry matcha had the faintest hint of matcha despite being a green drink so the matcha was not strong at all. However, it didn't taste powdery. Lastly, I forgot the actual name of the orange drink but it was simply whatever.
You can adjust the sugar like most places, so nothing wrong there. I specifically requested less ice after confirming they were willing to do so as some spots won't allow you. In the end, a third of my cup was still ice. My friend who didn't adjust their ice levels had a cup half full of ice. The width of the cup allows them to fill up the ice so there's less drink while still appearing to be fair because the ice doesn't rise as high as in a taller, but skinnier cup. Overall not impressed.
