"Boozy boba teas are finally coming to Houston thanks to GiAu Bar & Bites in Chinatown. The Vietnamese eatery at 9889 Bellaire Boulevard almost debuted the cocktails last year via a pop up with Wokker Texas Ranger, but due to business reasons, pulled the plug on the project. Now, they’re getting a permanent spot on GiAu’s menu along with strawberry shortcake and creme brûlée cocktails, all dreamt up by barman Jacky Lee, who’s been with the company for four years, says owner Julie Vu. The boozy milk tea will come in two varieties, traditional black tea and purple-colored taro flavored, both with crystal tapioca pearls that are totally see-through, unlike the popular black tapioca pearls in many boba teas. “Milk Tea is quite big in our community, in our complex alone there are at least five or six milk tea places,” Vu told Eater. “Jacky said we should do a milk tea with liquor in it - he’s really good at making things taste good. I have family that owns milk tea store, and asked them for the recipe to do the milk tea with white tapioca.” The cocktail menu additions are part of a larger menu revamp, which brings some traditional Vietnamese additions to the restaurant’s offerings, including a barbecue pork sandwich, spring rolls with barbecue pork, and lotus stem salad with shredded pork and shrimp. GiAu’s hours of operation are 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. daily, and boozy boba is rolling out this Friday." - Alaena Hostetter

Mini egg rolls were delicious and lemon pepper chicken wings were too. We ordered from the Happ Hour Menu. For drinks and appetizers on the HH we ordered, Bubbly Pineapple, Kiwi Breeze, Smoke Old Fashioned Los Fuegos. 2 drinks per person, we tasted in each other's drinks all were delicious, may I add service was awesome, they helped us with our questions, and also helped us with recommendations. I went around during the afternoon which wasn't that many people at that time.

Positively surprised about a bar in Chinatown. Creative and well mixed cocktails. Also relatively clean and nice atmosphere. Would def recommend to stop by for a drink when in Chinatown

A bar located in the Dun Huang Plaza. It's near the parking garage. We came here on New Years Eve so it was quite festive. The place is a decent size. Modern with booths, tables, and a private seating area for larger crowd. You can take any available tables you like and a waiter should come by to serve you. Music is a bit loud at this place. Maybe if they just turn down the music a little would be good. We ordered drinks and the calamari. The strawberry mojito had fresh strawberry that was pretty okay. The calamari was alright but the flour wasn't fried fully. Some tasted a little soggy like it was uncooked. Beware of drunkies. Maybe because it was New Years Eve but there were a few drunk girls in the restroom talking to themselves. Quite a sight. I would just avoid them. Overall, I would come back and try some of the other drinks. It does seem like a good atmosphere for a night out with friends.

Love this place but the service was very unpleasant for group reservation. So, i have a birthday party reservation for the lounge area (3+ weeks in advance).I’ve been calling a few times leading to the date to make sure they don’t give my spot to someone else (mainly because they don’t have a organized system of confirming reservation). Anw, on the day of— they literally move my group to the regular table area without any notice. It was complicated— but after reasoning with the manager for a while, they gave me my original spot. Although as the night progresses, i notice a slow and low quality of service, they rarely check us and often forget to bring out everything we ordered. I have a strong feeling that the manager is mad at me… but it’s not my fault they planned to give my “reserved spot” to someone else without telling me 🤷🏻‍♀️

Good music and good bites. I recommend the chicken feet, it was addicting we had to order another plate lol. Pass on the salt shaken tofu, it’s bland and had no flavor. I suggest them to season the tofu in whatever seasoning they put on the chicken feet!! I had a taste of the strawberry banana punch and it was refreshing.

Ann Marie and Lilian are the two perfect bartenders. Walked in, immediately greeted. Bar is awesome, playing some hip hop bangers. The food is insanely good. Best crawfish I’ve had in Houston, and holy cow the Supreme Fried Rice is killer as well. DO NOT SLEEP on this place, it will suprise you! Will be back asap.

SOOO GOOD!! My husband and I stumbled across this place during a night out & we were blown away! Everything we ordered from food to drinks were absolutely perfect. To eat we had the lemon pepper wings, edamame with spicy garlic soy, avocado bomb, and mini egg rolls. My husband said the best egg rolls he’s ever had & I honestly can’t disagree. For drinks we had a the bubbly drink, the strawberry popper drink, the spicy cucumber drink & the big watermelon drink! Can’t remember exact names on the drinks but every one was delicious. Especially the watermelon one that legit came out in half a watermelon! Also had 2 pretty in pink shots before we headed out! Service was great as well! Very helpful & sweet. We looking forward to our next visit!
