Just started cleaning and told us outside area is closed. Then asked Do we need to go boxes , if not go finish your food inside. Don't know why yall kicking people out before 10pm. So awkward and rude. read more

A pleasant find during our road trip. The food was very tasty, and so were the bubble tea. The dishes had authentic taste to them with good size portions. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Excellent service! I had no clue they had food as I'm not a boba person :) - my family was wanted to go so we met up and easily found a table for 6 around 7pm on Friday evening. They have lots of people in and out- but service was pretty quick such nice staff and food woah yall food was surprisingly good! I seriously thought no way a boba place can have decent food- they food was really good! Everyone in my family loved the boba and teas - it's just not really my thing but here is the food! The only reason not 5 stars it was the bright sun coming through the large window/door right into some family members eyes - maybe they can consider tint or some type of blinds it would really help. read more

Ordered the Matcha Latte with boba & the Mango Sea Salt Cream Cloud, Artea Yum Roll, Teriyaki Chicken Don, Taiwanese Rice Noodles and the Gua Bao. Both drinks were good, but the mango drink was easily my favorite out of the two. It was so yummy and I absolutely loved the sea salt cream! I normally don't order food when I go to a boba spot, but this place had some great food options to choose from, so I decided to try a few. All the dishes were so delicious, but I enjoyed the Artea Yum Roll the most! It was so flavorful and had a nice little crunch on the outside. The Teriyaki Chicken Don is another dish that also had lots of flavor and I loved how it tasted when you mixed the teriyaki sauce with the rice. The Taiwanese Rice Noodles is one of my favorites; it'll definitely fill you up and they use thinner noodles than what you'd normally find. The sauce and noodles are imported from Taiwan. Whatever you do, make sure to try the Gua Bao! It's SO good and the crushed peanuts and powdered sugar it comes with made it so much better in my opinion. After talking to the owner, Marisa, I learned that they took their chef to Taiwan for a while so he can learn how to make authentic food. He learned from Michelin-starred chefs and street vendors. Definitely recommend trying this spot - food & drinks are great and everyone was super friendly! This particular location is super spacious and has inside and outside seating. read more

I've been to this Artea several times and have not been disappointed. The bubble tea is AMAZING but the food is also so so GOOD! This a very casual place with not many food options but everything is good. I can't really speak for the service since I usually order to go but everyone who has taken my order has been very nice. read more

We came here pretty late and I always think when you go to a restaurant near closing time, they're not going to care about the quality of your food bc they're trying to go home. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE!!!! We ordered quite the spread and everything came out quick, hot and fresh! Let me tell you, the applewood bacon fried rice?? 10 OUT OF 10 Taiwanese noodles were the runner up! My husband really liked the wings. Couldn't really put our finger on how to describe the wings but they sure were tasty! Artea yum roll took us out too! Sooooo good! The menu is small and I question whether I would be back soon but I might get a craving for the applewood bacon fried rice and come right back! Too full to try a boba drink so maybe that will be the purpose of my next trip. read more

Stopped by early on a Saturday. I was the second person there. I was going to sit outside, but it was quieter inside and I was there for a book club meeting. They have so many options for drinks. To me, it's overwhelming. I wanted them all. I ended up going with my usual tropical fruit flavors. I had the mango coconut paradise. It was a good treat. Loved the flavor. It wasn't super sweet either. For a snack, I got a yum roll. It's fried. I liked that it was lightly battered. I would definitely get it again. You order at the counter and they bring out your food. For the drinks, they will give you a buzzer. Parking is available on site, but shared with the other businesses. Outside seating has several tables and it is shaded. read more

I wouldn't recommend coming here to study. It's a very busy place, the music is quite loud, and the WiFi isn't great. The Thai tea I ordered was good and I'd come back for tea, just not to study. read more

Lovely afternoon meal and drinks. Had the Old Time Taiwan Fruit Tea (simple green tea flavored with fruit) and Mango & Coconut Paradise Tea (great smooth mouthfeel, refreshing and fruity). We decided to try three snacks - Honey Bacon Bites (sweet, savory, not spicy and perfectly fried), Yum Roll (nice contrast of textures and very surprisingly light being fried) and the Gua Bao (flavor bomb but be prepared a little messy to eat). Will be back for more and amend our new trys. read more

Ridiculously good-looking food! That Boba tea is so hot right now. The menu is easy to understand, even for kids who can't read good. This place will bring back the fond memories of you and boys having a gasoline fight. The vibe is as if blue steel and Magnum had a baby. read more

First time here. The food was pretty good. Chasu bowl was pretty standard. Pork belly was very tender. Phoenix wings was also pretty standard. The flavor didn't really stand out and salad was too over dressed for me. The Artea yum rolls was so good. It was the best thing on the menu. The drinks were good as well. Not too sweet which I appreciated. Service was pretty fast even though they were busy with mobile orders. I would definitely return and try something else. read more

I can't believe I didn't hit the Post Review button on this, lol! I love Artea, I've posted a review for them before and just really love this place for a number of reasons. You walk in to this nice, open, space that is filled with natural sunlight, the food quality is really good, and I just love their Signature Milk Tea with boba. Fast service, good atmosphere, great to pop in for lunch, and always consistent. Oh, and I love their logo! Great job to Luna Creative on this! read more

Came in for boba drinks but was surprised to see a pretty extensive food menu too! I got the strawberry salad and glass noodles. The portion sizes are generous especially for the price. I had plenty of leftovers to take home to eat tomorrow. The staff are very nice and there was plenty of seating inside. There's even some board games you could play at the tables. read more

Was very surprised to find a tea house with great food. Stop in late evening for a quick bite and a tea! Tea was good, nothing stands out from other tea shops. However their food was great. The teriyaki chicken was delicious and very large servings, the Taiwanese noodles were good and portion enough for three. The gua bao were very good, nice tender pork and flavorful. Our group enjoyed everything! Will be a regular! read more

Nice ambiance and decor - it felt a little warm inside though. It was pretty busy on a Sunday afternoon! I got their signature milk tea and really enjoyed it! Their boba has the perfect texture. They have a pretty big selection and have food as well. Would come back! read more

If you haven't been here-- GO! Ended up here serendipitously but will go back on purpose. EVERYTHING was as delicious as it looked and the drinks --despite my pictures-- are truly gorgeous. Service was fast and friendly, and they provided great recommendations. I got the Lime Bomb which I was worried would be too sweet but it was absolutely perfect . Got several shareables this time (sooo good ) but was also drooling over another tables entrees. Will absolutely be back every chance I get! read more

Wow, never had such fancy bubble tea. What sets this place apart from most others is that the drinks are made with fresh fruit and scratch ingredients. They are not made from powders. The kids enjoyed the strawberry option. The mango coconut was refreshing. The mango chunks were a little unripe and slightly sour but still impressive. I've been to boba shops in WA, SF, HI and other places in TX and this place tops them all. Thank you for this wonderful option. The only downside but understandable for handcrafted drinks was the price. It was about $32 for a family of 4. read more

First time! Got a to go order. At the cash register, it looked like they were having a staff meeting as we were forced to wait 15 minutes until they stopped talking and decided to do their jobs. Ashley finally stepped up to take our order. Pot stickers were hot, delicious and flavorful as was the Teriyaki Chicken Don. Applewood Bacon Fried Rice was delicious and savory. The only exception was the Beef Udon. Broth was flavorless and did not add anything to the dish; it was bland! The egg, mushroom, and pieces of meat were good but also bland. We then made homemade Udon sauce and the dish was transformed. I don't understand the lack of flavor in the original dish. We know what NOT to order! read more

I ordered the Eel Roll to Dine In. The Eel Roll with no gingeSoy. Asked the cashier if they also had low sodium soy sauce. She said she had no idea. The gentleman delivered the sushi roll very promptly. I asked for Soy Sauce and he said it's up at the Tea counter. So, I went up and asked if there were any little dishes or cups for the Soy Sauce. The young teen attendant said you could use a water cup and walked away. The Eel Roll looked delicious. It was warm and fresh. I will absolutely visit again but I think they need so e serious customer service training. read more

I went to Artea on the recommendation of a friend. I really like the relaxed atmosphere and I loved the patio seating. It's such a nice area when there aren't too many kids taking it over. The service is also nice and friendly. E we ordered a few things to start. The spicy edamame was perfectly seasoned. The teriyaki chicken was tender and delicious. The potstickers are my favorite! They're crunchy and loaded with flavor. Also my favorite is the applewood smoked bacon fried rice. It's such a unique flavor but so good. We also tried the honey chicken bites. They were too sweet. Not my thing. I also really enjoyed their mango bubble tea. I would visit just to buy that however, I will be returning to try a few more dishes that caught my eye. Great place to relax and catch up with a friend. read more

This was our first time having Artea, and we loved it! We didn't eat in the restaurant, but ordered through DoorDash. I was a little worried that it wouldn't be the same quality as sitting inside for dinner, but it didn't disappoint! We both ordered the teriyaki bowl with a side of rangoons and it was all so delicious. I also ordered a strawberry boba tea. This was my first time having boba and I loved it! I didn't take a photo, but it was completely wrapped and insulated, so by the time it was delivered it was still nice and cool. We definitely will be returning to try more off the menu! read more

The food pictures had me sold. We were visiting the San Antonio area for the kiddos to see Seaworld. I was tired of American theme park food. Saw this pop up on my feed nearby and just had to come by. The teas were so refreshing. The food was delicious. It had been awhile since I had taiwanese popcorn chicken and it really hit the spot. The edemame was the highlight, honestly. It's like a secret sauce of goodness I was not expecting. Funny thing was, on the way out... we heard a table wanting to return the edemame because it was "burnt. " I guess they didn't realize that's how it's supposed to be prepared wth a little char. The kitchen staff came out to explain the preparation of the edemame. She was so nice and informative. I don't even think they even tried it because they would not have sent that back! Honestly, very unique. It really is different from any other prepared edemame I've ever had and it's so good. Hubs and I were fighting over the last bits of it The place is definitely trendy and IG worthy. 2 different "kitchens" where there's one side doing the actual cooking and the other is solely drinks. Highly recommended and would definitely stop by again when I'm in town! read more

Cannot recommend eating here. The tea is good. The fried dumplings are good. But that's about it. The beef Udon was so so. I DO NOT recommend the Ramen. Very bland. Noodles all stuck together. And the only condiment is soy sauce. No sriracha or any other kind of sauce, hot oil, pepper seeds, etc. and why they give a box to take home the extra ramen is a mystery. We didn't take it. Probably wouldn't have gotten eaten any way. read more

Love it. Nothing bad to say about the maple bacon fried rice and the honey bacon bites.

We're so happy that an Artea finally opened closer to us!! The food, as always, is excellent and the place is always clean -- just want to add that their restroom not only looks clean, but it actually smells clean! We also love that there's space just outside for the kids to play and run around. read more

Yumm Yumm what a cute place. It has plenty of indoor seating with a very cool boba bar inside. I was in the shopping center for something else when I saw Artea. Who couldn't use a little boba in their life? I decided to get a cherry line loose leaf tea and I was so shocked to see the jelly is shaped like bears! How adorable! Little bears at the bottom of the cup was enough to make me want to go back. So adorable and delicious read more

I was hungry for lunch, looked at photos on Yelp, saw the boba, and I knew this was worth a try. Vibe: Lively with music uptempo music playing throughout the restaurant I haven't noticed Artea before but it appears to be new, and the floors and tables were all clean. You walk in, stand in line, and order food before seating yourself a table. They give you buzzer for the boba tea and an order number card to display at your table. Food: The chicken, rice and boba were all delicious. The chicken was seasoned very well throughout the chicken..not just bland chicken with teriyaki sauce used to mask the flavor.. it was actually marinated. The food came out before I even made it to my table read more

My daughters love this place! I've had my few experiences with boba teas. Not really a boba person. However I decided to try it out because my kids wanted it. I purchased sweet potato fires, wings, and the steamed buns with pork belly! The fries are good just need a little more salt and the packaging used to go makes them a little soggy when you get home from the stream ( however the flow tells Me they are likely better eaten there). The wings were flavorful and not too fried or greasy. The steamed bun with pork belly come two to an order and are pretty tasty. My wife loves it, I'm not a big fat of the marbling on pork belly. I had the signature milk tea ( no boba) and my daughters and wife had the hibiscus tea ( daughters had fruity boba). The signature milk tea (non dairy) is not too sweet and very refreshing. I have ordered it 3 times since this visit. My wife and kids enjoyed the hibiscus tea, not so much the boba (too much chewing) . Little one has an affinity for popping boba. This has become my comparison for all other milk tea! If you want to try something new Thai place will not Let you down. I just wish a large was larger for the tea. read more
