We came about an hour before closing, and I could immediately tell this location was brand new because everything was absolutely spotless and the interior was so bright and clean. I will say my drink wasn't quite as sweet as I would've liked, and I think they were a little light on the sugar. That being said, I still really enjoyed it because the tea itself was SO good. You can really taste the quality of the tea, which is why I keep coming back to R&B Tea over a lot of other boba chains. Overall, this is just such a solid and consistent boba spot! If you're looking for a reliable place for milk tea, I definitely recommend checking them out. Next time I'd probably just ask for a little extra sugar, but I'd happily come back again!

The customer service were excellent!! They let us sample the honey boba and the golden boba since I could not decide which one I would like more. The golden was chewy and the honey boba was sweeter to me so I ended up with the golden boba. Taro was fresh and the taro tofu pudding was my favorite! The milk teas were good but lighter on the tea taste. It was in a busy area so we got dropped off and picked up for easy convenience. Small seating area to wait for drinks. Would recommend this place!

Everyone is sweet as brown sugar boba, so helpful and happy to offer suggestions or explain the menu. My go to has been the garlic chicken bowl with white rice, steamed broccoli and garlicky, slightly sweet, tender chicken bits. So good! The shrimp kimbap is basically a shrimp tempura roll accompanied by a dip that provides a little wasabi kick. I've also tried some of their drinks, the seasonal watermelon juice was perfect all summer, but I look forward to the fall flavors. The menu is small but everything is good quality and fresh. And the cookies, I'm not sure where they get them but they are amazing!

I've been to Jade's Tea House a few times. It's a cute and small shop, and the workers are nice…read more For the drinks, you can choose from a wide variety of smoothies/slushies, teas, coffees, and customize them with your preferred toppings and preferences. They also serve snacks, banh mi, and rice vermicelli bowls. My go-to drink here is the Jade's Milk Tea, which has just the perfect amount of tea flavors and freshness. I've also had the mango smoothie and the strawberry milk tea, but their flavors were pretty bland. For the food, I've had the sandwiches and vermicelli bowls, which were not bad but not the best. Even though their overall quality is pretty average, I like them because they are pretty close to my workplace for affordable drinks, foods, and fast service.

We only opted for drinks, and I wasn't too impressed. I went with a smoothie. It tasted fine, but not as fresh as others I've had. The mango flavor wasnt as strong as I hoped, and the vanilla flavor tasted very artificial. I won't say I'm disappointed, but with so many Boba options out there, this one was just mediocre for me.

The only trouble is, we'll never go back. Like every other place that has gone cashless, our family stopped going to those places. Places should be offering more ways to pay, not less. Offer Bitcoin payments even. We were at a place this week that offered a discount for cash (like a lot of places in Europe) and it was so refreshing. Like being rewarded for paying cash, instead of being chastised for trying to pay cash. Milk + Sugar... Fantastic ice cream, good service, bad experience trying to pay... won't return. ‍

I had visited a nearby business and wanted to give this place a go. The parking situation isn't…read moregreat, but there is street parking in the area for those that may not be on foot. Vibe/Decor - 4.5* The storefront is cool, nice entryway and gives a chill vibe. Stepping in it's a bit boutique and free space for studying and chilling, with some music in the background. They have a panty near the door for those in need who want water and snacks, which is a great cause, but sadly I watched it be abused in the short time I was here. The intent is, come in, take what you need, within reason, don't clear it out essentially. Well, I watched a lady load up her bag with snacks and water. It wasn't what I'd subjectively view as "fair." They have some TVs around that at this visit had the World Cup on and there was a nice setup for buying some jerseys if you wanted. Overall, I enjoyed the setup and witnessed plenty of people reading or studying. Food / Drink - 2* They offer some bites and coffee drinks, which is obviously what many are likely visiting for. I ordered an Iced Black Sesame Latte, which also had a black sesame cold foam. The disappointing part, it was nothing to write home about. Maybe I'm a harsh critic here since I make my own Black Sesame simple syrup at home. That said, I did have the person with me try it who has tried my sesame lattes tell me they thought mine were better. I thought, well, maybe I'll get something else if I come back. Service - 2* I can only speak to my personal experience, but when I walked in, multiple people stared at me, as if I was an alien or unwelcome here, it was odd and uncomfortable. I approached the counter to order, asking a couple of questions, which were answered, albeit probably not as anyone would define as "warmly." Now, once ordered, it took longer than one would expect given how few orders were ahead of mine. I was in no rush, but I did witness the gentleman in front of me who was wearing a local business' shirt, seem to pace and anxiously wait. Cost - 1* Anyone who reads my reviews knows I preface this with, always subjective, but it's been awhile since I walked into a place and nearly walked out on pricing alone. That said, I wanted to see if the coffee was worth it at $9+ bucks. Sadly, it is not, particularly when paired with the pace of service. Overall - 2* This is one that I think has a lot of potential, but it just misses on fundamental marks for a coffee shop. At the end of the day, it's a cool vibe and I could see plenty of people wanting to relax here, but in a city, and even area, that has plenty of options, this one is worth skipping. Average coffee, subpar service, and poor pricing. I will not be returning, but hey, I'm only one review and opinion so if you're in the area, maybe your experience will be different.

Today we finally stopped by the new Houston Ave location and went through the drive-thru. Safe to say it lived up to the hype! We ordered the Mazapán cold brew, the Banana Latte, and two breakfast tacos. The drinks were AMAZING--both flavorful without being overly sweet, and the Mazapán cold brew especially stood out. The breakfast tacos were also really good and the perfect quick bite with coffee. Everything came out quickly and the drive-thru experience was smooth. We'll definitely be back on weekends or days off. My only wish is that they opened earlier since I pass by on my way to work and they open at 8 AM. Overall, such a great first visit. Highly recommend checking them out if you're in the area!
