"I came for the Boba!!!! Instantly as I walked in the smell of the restaurant nearly made me vomit. You could smell The trash, rotten food. ? there was no one waiting in line. Of course as soon as I open the door the lady comes out to take my order. Never had I’ve been there before I asked if there was substitutions to whole milk in the Boba teas. They do you have almonds and oak milk. I ordered the Thai Boba tea with oat milk. Instantly looking at the cup I could tell that it was not fresh Thai tea. The consistency of the tea was very diluted. It had no thickness to it at all. After leaving the restaurant it took me about 15 minutes for my stomach to settle from the smell of the inside of the restaurant. I had already knew this was not gonna be there a Thai tea I am used to. I still wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. My first sip was just the tea with no tapioca pearls. All that I could taste was the water down oat milk. As I sip up the tapioca pearl’s and began to chew, I literally felt like I was chewing rubber. I gave it a few more steps, a few more chew’s still the same flavor water down oat milk with balls of rubber. The tapioca pearls were either old, over cooked possibly even both. I was really hoping for a good Thai flavor. ? The only reason why I’m giving them a two star rating is because the lady was friendly. I had already headed back on the interstate for a 30 minute ahead of me. Or I would have taken it back."
