I hesitate about giving low rating especially if the service I receive was good, but I have to be real honest about the drink and food quality. It needs improvement! I have visit this place at least three different times. When I saw they were offering Avocado Smoothie ($5.99) using the real fruit, that was the first drink I ordered along with Coffee Jelly Milk Tea ($4.19). That first drink I had taste amazing! The avocado smoothie was green and creamy and delicious. The coffee jelly milk tea is also one of their top request drinks and that taste pretty good too.
On my next visit, I ordered the same drinks along with Jasmine Milk Tea ($4.19) and they ask if I want boba which is an additional 50 cents, so I gave in and said okay. This time it felt like my drink taste way too sweet. The jasmine milk tea was okay, but the boba just didn't taste right. I didn't like how it is so chewy in my drink. It's like I have to bite real hard and I almost choke on it. There is a place I know that makes good soft pearl boba in Henderson and that is the only place I will go to for boba.
As for snacks, I tried their Popcorn Chicken ($5.99) and it is prepared as fried chicken strips with a crumb like breading all serve in a small takeout box. There was no sauce that came with it and when I ate it, the outside texture taste crusty like a crushed chicharron and it felt like it need some kind of sauce. That is when the girl hand me ketchup, ranch, and bbq. To be honest, even if the popcorn chicken is a secret recipe of theirs it felt like it needed more work and adjustment. I suggest making the batter for the popcorn chicken smooth and crispy instead of dry and flaky, which is very unappealing and there has to be a good spicy sauce to complement it.
Third visit and I was hoping it would be better, but unfortunately the inconsistency got worse. I ordered the Avocado Smoothie as a jumbo size which is 85 cents extra, and the same Coffee Jelly Milk Tea for large. This time I request not to make my drink too sweet. When I receive my drinks, the jumbo avocado smoothie look so pale in color, it's not as green as I had on my first visit. When I took a sip, I end up getting a brain freeze and can barely taste the avocado. What ever happen to my fruit? It's like it was drowned underneath all the milk and ice. The coffee milk tea was also missing the jelly and I point it out to the girl and she said it doesn't come with it. Really? But she went ahead to add it in a new cup. That is when I look at my receipt again and saw my order was typed incorrectly as Coffee Milk Tea instead of Coffee Jelly Milk Tea. I understand mistakes happen and the girls have been real nice, but the quality of food and drink is just not up to par and with each visit, it has been disappointing. I was hoping to give this Boba place a higher rating, but the third visit gave me such a headache. I do wish them the best of luck though and hope they will make positive improvements.
