I guess the summary of this restaurant is that nothing stood out... neither positively or…read morenegatively. It was all mediocre. Service was the standard you'd expect at a Chinese restaurant. A little tight on the space between tables, but clean. We ordered several dishes: stewed beef noodle soup, stewed pork burger, liang pi, lamb pao mo soup, xi'an lamb soup, and sweet & sour pork ribs. All the food arrived pretty quickly, but the overall theme was that it was underseasoned. Nothing was wrong with them, they were just boring and lacked flavour. There are better restaurants for Xi'an cuisine, and I won't be returning here. Paid street parking.

While they are delicious pan-fried, the boiled version is truly special. Its unique texture is so remarkable that it stands out as the must-try choice. ​The experience continues with the Xi'an cold noodle, which arrive with the warm, irresistible aroma of sesame oil. Every strand of the handmade noodle is coated in a sauce that balances nutty, sweet, and sour notes perfectly, creating a playful harmony of flavours. Stop by at Lao Cai Chinese Cuisine to try authentic Xi'an foods.

Not the best bubble tea, but the only one in Abby. The…read morebubble tea has a limited variety of flavours, and they don't happen to have any type of dairy free milk alternatives. I had a fruit slush bubble tea and it was heavily watered down to how much ice was used. I don't think I would consider going back because the cost and lack of flavour. I recommend bubble tea in Langley in walnut grove over the Abby location.

I love this store, when I was a teen I'd stop by twice a week or so. The bubble tea is good (my…read moredairy allergy prevents me from be venturing any farther than the slush variety, though) Honestly, they have an amazing yakisoba dish and the fries are made fresh to order. To the other reviewer, there are other rooms in the back where the kitchen is. Keep it up! Love this place.

If you're in the mood for something a little savoury, they also serve 5 different flavours of Taiyaki. I can't remember which flavours I ordered because I stuffed them in my mouth immediately. Bubble tea is a good value but nothing special. Still think it's a good spot to go if you're looking for desserts.

Large Roasted Milk Tea with brown sugar pearls - $7.60 This…read moreplace is the best bbt in coquitlam!! It was quite busy when we went but I was pleasantly surprised the quality didn't dip. We got the milk tea with 50% sugar and less ice, and it wasn't too sweet! Also had a nice balance of milk and tea (oftentimes I only taste milk). Brown sugar pearls were fresh as they were still warm in the cup, and thus had a perfect chewy texture!

Surprisingly pretty good on our first try. If you follow me I usually go to Vancouver BC for bubble…read moretea and food. I would go to as many boba shops as possible ;). This place is definitely on our comeback list. We tried the roasted milktea and ribena lime soda. Both were pretty good. Only downside is the location is kinda weird with parking in the side back with other shops . And limited parking around the area. For out of town people like us it could be a bit challenging finding Parking. We were lucky to find a spot in the back. I feel like that's the issues with a lot of Asian malls with restaurants and shops. But I highly recommend this boba place if you're always on the hunt for good milktea places no matter where you traveling to :)

The staff were helpful, but more smiles would make customer feel more welcome. I saw two fancy brewing machines and saw the tea dripping out so this is a good sign. The prices are a little higher comparted to other bubbles places, but the freshly brewed tea makes it a higher quality of taste. I ordered the Taro Queen and enjoyed, and you can choose the amount of ice and sweetness. Loved sipping to find the taro paste but not alot of tea to drink. Not sure if I come back as there are other options.

Located by the bus loop at Richmond Centre station - easy to find location…read more Store is very clean and bright - geared towards grab and go. Got the bubble volcano made with oat milk - I am fully aware there is no tea in this drink, and the cashier did note that. However the drink was very disappointing - as it was 25% ice, 65% FOAM and probably got like 10% worth of actual drinkable liquid. The Brown sugar taste was good , not overwhelming - however the amount of liquid for the price paid was seriously laughable. - Oat milk does come out of the carton pretty foamy after you shake it, however that doesn't mean you serve a cup of foam. Will not recommend - bubble tea scene is super competitive, especially in Richmond -

We always find a reason to make a stop in Parksville on our way to Saratoga Beach for Astro Boba. The prices are very reasonable and they have a huge selection of drinks and customizations.

Service is always friendly and fast so make sure you step aside to let others order if you're still deciding.
