    Strawberry boba
    Jennifer G.

    They have a lot of good options for Boba and other drinks in here. This is my 2nd time coming and the food was always great. They have burgers inside too so a little of both makes the experience better. The service is great with the cashier being so patient and friendly. They have games and tables inside which makes the place so comfortable.

    This was probably the only boba place with good reviews around the area and it was definitely really good! I came with three other friends and all four of us agreed this place was great. I love the wall art and the bright lighting. The drinks came out really fast too within minutes. My favorite drinks were the strawberry marble and strawberry calamansi! My other friends liked their strawberry matcha and halo halo. The only criticism I have is the floors were pretty dirty but that's typical of a sticky drink shop. We will come back again when we are in the area!

    I found this spot when I searched Boba on Yelp. It is in the cut, it was a little ride but I would definitely return! It's a chill vibe, they had 90s R&B playing when I visited. They also had board games available for you to play. The drinks were very flavorful. We order the Mango smoothie with strawberry poppers, Strawberry smoothie and a plain Mango smoothie. The service was better fast.

    Amazing boba tea! The taro milk tea was perfectly creamy with just the right level of sweetness, and the boba pearls were soft and chewy. I loved the variety of toppings they offer I tried the grass jelly, and it was delicious. The shop has a bright, modern vibe, and the staff was super friendly. I'll definitely be back!

    We stopped by on the way to visiting Fort Washington Park. This boba spot is recommended by both Eater and WaPo, so we thought it would be promising. We got: Thai Tea, 50% Sweet, Regular Ice w/ Honey Boba ($6.65) - This drink was way too sweet, probably would be something like 150% sweet in other boba shops. The ice used in the drink was crushed ice. Given they brew the tea on demand, I thought it was strange that they wouldn't use large ice cubes which would be slower to melt and dilute the drink. Funny thing is, after completely melting, the drink was still way too sweet. At least it did have the correct Thai tea flavor - they definitely brew it rather than making it from powder. The boba was overcooked, super soft and soggy. The claim this is honey boba, but it did not have either the texture or taste of honey boba. I don't think they soak the boba in anything because it was bland compared to the sweet drink. Black Mix Milk Tea, 50% Sweet, Light Ice w/ Honey Boba ($6.90) - This drink was only a bit too sweet, probably equivalent to 70% at other places. The tea had a slight roasty and fragrant taste that reminded me of high mountain oolong. It mostly tasted like dairy though. The ice was completely melted by the time I got the drink and the boba was the same as above. Both drinks were pretty mediocre. AunTea Boba has some pretty creative drinks - Buko Pandan, Halo-Halo, etc. Maybe stick to those instead of the standard drinks.

    Best boba spot in town! The jasmine green milk tea was refreshing and fragrant, and the boba pearls were perfectly cooked. They offer a lot of customization, which I loved I went with half sugar, and it was just right. The staff is always welcoming, and the place has such a fun, trendy atmosphere.

    A boba lover's dream! The brown sugar milk tea here is incredible rich, sweet, and full of caramelized flavor. The pearls were warm and had the perfect texture. The staff was helpful and recommended some great options. The shop was clean and inviting, with cozy seating for hanging out with friends.

    Awesome drinks especially the halo halo!! Talk about legit eye opening drink experience! The place is pretty cool but one young girl needs to put a smile on her face when serving or places like this fade to black quick...Feel me!?! Drink was excellent, the ambiance inviting and interesting and just a good gem of a find for a cool, unique and delicious drink. Know go find a smiley mask for Ms. Happy or I mean unhappy! Even with that noise the place is a legit 5.

    Cute place, horrible drinks. I only bought boba here and it was a disappointment. Hopefully the food is good though. Drinks: I got the taro and tiramisu boba tea drink. It tasted like it was watered/milked down, so there wasn't much flavor. The boba was soft on the outside, hard on the inside. I didn't even want to finish the drink. It's disappointing because I thought it would live up to its hype. Service: There was no greeting or even a thank you. They basically just stare at you and let you do all the talking. I don't believe that they're smiling behind their masks too. Overall: I'll probably never get drinks here again.

    Ordered the cookies and cream boba. The store was a little hard to find but it was next to the 711. It tastes great and fast service!!

    Very cute cafe! And they sell some Filipino food. I'm giving this place a 3-star for lack of hospitality for a new establishment. As I entered, I wasn't welcomed or even saw smiles. I felt uncomfortable and almost unwelcomed. Of course, I did not let that get to me and I continued to order. The prices are but expensive and I I understand small businesses. However I have purchased the same kinds of drinks in NoVa for slightly cheaper. Same ingredients, no powder. My drink was good and creamy but a bit too sweet. The ambiance is hip and intimate. It's a little disorganized. The workers could clean up a bit. I'll probably give this place another chance sometime later this summer since it's still fairly new. There's always room for some improvements.

    Yay!! Milk tea in Fort Washington! Located right inside Gigi's Kitchen by the gas station. Easy parking. Convenient to grab after getting food from Gigi's (or any of the nearby establishments). Not that much seating to hang out though. Today was the soft opening so they're still figuring things out. I got the sweet milk tea - even at half sweet it was still pretty sugary; it was also very white which was interesting-I didn't get the 'tea' vibe from it. I also got the black milk tea, which I personally liked more because it had a fragrant tea flavor- the level at half sweet was perfect. You can see them brewing the tea fresh which is awesome. They have some good looking topping options including your standard honey and sugar bobas, but also the bursting ones! They have a lot of fruity flavors and have some slush other drink options as well. I'll definitely be back... need to try that cereal milk tea!!!

    First time here and I am surprised by how good it is. My sister lives in Maryland and brought me here because I wanted boba and I'm not familiar with the area. From the outside, it look kind of sketchy by but this place is considered a hole in the wall because, interior is aesthetic and cute. We ordered the halo halo smoothie, cereal milk and green Thai tea. All were pleasant. We also ordered the pork buns and ube buns, which were also good. I hope o can come back before I leave. Till then, let's sip!!!

Then to follow it up the service from our waiter Andrew was first class. He took care of us in a timely manner as well as gave great menu recs with even better service throughout our dinner. The food came out and was to die for especially the Kimchi Crab Dip! This place was so good we decided to come back for brunch the next day. My oh my am I glad we did, we had the most amazing experience getting in as soon as they opened. From there received great service from Misha and the food came out even better than before. I cannot stress it enough that THIS IS THE BEST BRUNCH I HAVE EVER HAD. The French toast made my taste buds dance every bite. The chicken and waffles cooked to perfection and filled with such flavor. Then the Kentucky Hot Brown is the food you wouldn't expect you needed in your life but you do. The sweet buns were so good I preferred them over the Cinnabon across the street. All in all if I could rate this out of 10 it was a 20 for how good everything was. I would recommend Brunch over dinner but both still were good. I for sure will be flying from California just for this place again. Succotash staff and cooks thank you all. Especially Andrew and Misha yall are amazing!

    Friend and I went here for brunch and really enjoyed it…read more Between the two of us, we ordered: - a pumpkin pie latte - a veggie lover omelet - eggs florentine - coffee cake Everything we got was quite good, and the service/atmosphere was wonderful too. Not to mention, it felt so fairly-priced compared to most places in Old Town! We spent about $50 between the two of us, which included a 20% tip on our bill. Hard to beat in this area honestly, especially given the quality of the food and service. I look forward to coming back and am so glad to finally have an answer to "where do you recommend going for brunch in Old Town?" -- a question that I've historically struggled with when people asked!

    We stopped into HomeGrown on King Street for breakfast while visiting Alexandria. First impressions…read morewere very positive--the restaurant is clean, modern, and has a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was friendly, and the menu had several items that sounded interesting. Unfortunately, the experience didn't quite live up to the setting. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, which came with eggs and breakfast potatoes. The meal itself was good, and I liked that the eggs were included since that's not always the case with biscuits and gravy. I also ordered a Bloody Mary that was advertised on the menu as being garnished with bacon, celery and a pickle spear. When it arrived, there was no bacon, celery or pickle spear, and I was told they were out. Not a huge deal, but it would have been nice to know before ordering. The biggest issue was service timing. There were four of us dining together, and three meals arrived while the fourth entrée didn't show up for about ten more minutes. Since nobody wanted to eat while one person sat without food, our meals cooled off while we waited. Ironically, the delayed meal was a BLT--which did have bacon on it and even a pickle spear.... I finished my first Bloody Mary and ordered a second. After waiting 15-20 minutes with no drink arriving, our check was brought to the table and I ended up canceling it. My wife's meal was the biggest disappointment. It was served with corn chips that were extremely stale, which really hurt the overall dish. HomeGrown has a lot of potential. The atmosphere is great, the staff was pleasant, and parts of the meal were enjoyable. However, between the service delays, missing menu items, stale chips, and drink issues, there is definitely room for improvement.

When the waffle was finally ready, they gave it to me in food wrap, and it was HOT. There were no napkins provided, so I had to ask for some. I ate it on the go and it was super delicious. Great amount of cheese and the waffle itself was satisfying and fluffy. I've never had one before and I've never seen it anywhere... though the sign itself said it's popular on TikTok. That true?
