    Takoyaki and Taiyaki!!

    They have the best bobas!! And their snacks are amazing!! You'd better try their Japanese snacks.

    First time at Kung Fung Tea and ordered the Kung Fu Milk Tea with Crystal Boba. The Boba tasted like it had lychee in it. My friend ordered the Thai ice Tea. We then proceeded to order some appetizers: Taiyaki- red bean fish-shaped cake and something savory and Takoyaki- Octopus Balls. The fish cakes reminded me when I was stationed in Korea on a cold night and having these sweet treats. The Octopus melts in your mouth upon first bite. Kung Fu Tea makes the Boba Tea I've ever had! I encourage and recommend all to come visit Kung Fu Tea!

    We we're in the Knoxville Tennessee area and Kung Fu Tea came highly recommended to us for Boba tea. Kung Fu Tea is supposed to be the bubble tea specialist in the area, who specialize in hot and cold drinks, coffees and slushy's. This is a franchise establishment but this particular location off of I40 is extremely crowded and they are slow with making the drinks. We waited over 25 minutes for our order to be taken and there was still a wait for the tea to be made and placed in the pick up area. This wait was too long for a cup of boba tea.

    Knox has Kung Fu Tea?! What. How has this not come up on search? I kid you not, my husband and I were driving out of Lowe's (in the area) and I saw the "Kung Fu Tea" sign and I screamed.. haha. My husband tried to change lanes, someone honked and he said "sorry my wife is a huge fan of boba tea esp Kung fu tea" elite." Fun fact: When my husband and I were dating, I introduced him to boba tea and pho, it didn't take long for him to fell in love. But when he tried, Kung fu tea, he was a fan of it. Whenever we visit to Atlanta, GA or Baltimore, MD, we always pick up Kung Fu tea and that would be our "treat.." Now, I, we know there's one here..so happy! I'm beyond psyched! My favorites are Thai Tea (+tapico pearls), matcha/green tea (+tapico pearls) and the mango green tea with mango and/or lychee popping boba, I also add tapico pearls (you'll thank me). Funny thing was, I was just talking to my husband about Kung Fu tea having a location in Knoxville, thank you Jesus, you've answered my prayers! Btw this location is great! The employees are very welcoming, kind & patience. Looking forward to many more boba visits!

    Who doesn't love boba (bubble tea)? Kung Fu Tea has numerous varieties of bubble tea -- with and without the tapioca bubbles (however, the bubbles are the tastiest part!). I've never seen such variety at any bubble tea outlet. They have a huge array of regular items and clearly identify whether the teas have caffeine or allergins. In addition, you can customize the drink based on the level of sweetness. This isn't a special order sort of thing. They are used to tailoring the sweetness to your liking. Overall: I really enjoy Kung Fu Tea as a special treat. Great place for kids, dates, etc. Glad that Knoxville has it.

    I finally stopped here and now this is my forever new spot to order my Boboa Tea. I love the menu colors, I love the interior design and my drink ( Almond Tea ) was amazing. My son drink , he said it wasn't that sweet therefore hopefully if we can go back we can try something different.

    Hard to find a boba place around in this area. Taste just like any other kung fu tea - which is a good thing. Our orders came out quick. Place was clean and staff were nice.

    5 stars. Take my money. Let me start a franchise. Chefs kiss. The whole 9 yards. This place is incredible. Attached to a restaurant, quick service, extremely clean, very crowded. This place is popular and refreshing. My mango peach tea was incredible to take on our walk during a hot day.

    So my husband has mentioned bubble tea for several months. We enjoy drinking tea, but I didn't understand the concept of bubble tea. It just didn't make sense in my head. I was picturing tea with some kind of carbonated liquid. So we tried it out for the first time and it was pretty good. It is not what I expected at all. The bubbles are actually little chewy balls at the bottom of your tea. I would recommend you to stir your drink before you drink it so you can have bubbles throughout and not just at the end. My husband had tea and he really enjoyed it. There are steps that you follow that help guide you through the ordering process. The young lady at the cash register was very nice, friendly and she did a awesome job explaining our options. There is caffeinated tea, non-dairy tea, slushies and more.

    This place was a hit with my family. The Taro Tea was to die for! Haven't had good tarp bubble tea in a while and this hit the spot. I went twice in one week it was amazing!

    Covid mask policy was observed by all parties which is a 5 star rating for me! I would definitely recommend looking at the menu online if it's your first time ordering. The girls at the register taking your order are so nice and friendly aNd help you out. I love boba tea.

    I love this place! Everything is so efficient! The walls are stark white and makes this place shine from the inside out! I wish there was more room while waiting for my boba tea. This place is always busy and will a great reason. Boba tea is great! If you haven't had it, go get it! It's so great!

    With the addition of boba, Knoxville is indeed growing! Got my mom hooked cause before there was honestly no decent boba place in Knoxville. Taste wise is exactly what you would expect boba to taste like. I got a regular milk tea with bubbles, half sugar. Slightly a bit sweeter than other places at half sugar, but this is all down to preference. More importantly, they seem pretty serious about Covid precautions with all employees wearing gloves and masked. Masks are required in the store. I think it's great that Knoxville got a Kung fu Tea and my mom will definitely visit when I go back to Philly haha

    What a great recommendation!!! first off I have spent quite…read morea while looking for fresh spring rolls... and then I was told Sticky Rice Café has them! They do and they are delicious... served with peanuts sauce, of course From the moment we walked in the energy, vibe and passion was apparent!! Our server was Tre... He asked us if we had eaten there before which we told him we had not so he took the time and explained the menu the food and also his favorite pics. He explained grandma's sauces and gave us a great education on the type of food that we would be ordering! After the spring rolls, my husband ordered the dinner portion of grilled pork chops. BIINGMOO and I ordered PAD KEE MAO.... This is wide noodles in an amazing sauce and you have your choice of beef, pork, chicken, shrimp, or tofu to be added. I chose beef......Tre brought three little dishes to sample three at grandma's sauces which all had amazing flavors with a little bit of heat... our meals were brought to us and of course we tasted each other's meals and we're amazed at the freshness, flavor and the size. Oh my goodness this is a place that if you enjoy fresh food with an Asian twist, you need to try it. Grandma sauces can be purchased as they are bottled for sale as well. Service was wonderful to go food going out the door was nonstop. And we were lucky enough to sit at the far back of the restaurant next to the kitchen, so we got to watch all of the different platings coming out.... And we just need to start at the top of the menu and work our way down because everything looks wonderful. Happy people, happy servers, great vibe. There is a bar off to the side, which basically was full the entire time we were there. Really a very nice experience five stars and two thumbs up!!!!

    Still great consistent service and tasty food. Truly an asset to Knoxville dining. We visited again…read moretoday and we have zero complaints. Since moving into the bigger location it's easier to be seated quickly. The dining room is welcoming, open and super clean. Everyone on staff is eager to help even if they are not your specific waitress. **Tip take home a jar of your favorite sauce. They sell them!

I got the dumplings and the spring rolls to start and they were delicious. I got the Yamato 'burger' also and it was good too. It was a little sweet and reminded me a bit of salty cha su in a pita. - Just know it's not an American burger before you order it. Ming explained this to me before so I was prepared. :) My friend got the ramen bowl with spicy miso and ribeye and said it was amazing with the perfect amount of spice. Another friend got the Crab poke bowl, she said it was good with different textures. Everything we ate was good! The atmosphere was relaxing (we were seated in the corner booth).

    Yamato is fine, just fine. Prices are really good but the food is just basic. It's like this place…read moreis trying to cater to a western pallet, which is truly unfortunate. This is no where near an authentic ramen, the poke is alright - not great but fine. The restaurant is clean, and service is prompt and nice. It's never very busy when we come in, usually during a late lunch. You make your selection on a piece of paper, selecting what you want with a provided pen. The ramen broth is fine - not bad but not good, there is no depth to it. They load the Tonkotsu with bok choy, onion, and corn. The Chashu is browned nicely, and the egg yolk is soft - but that's the best thing in the meal... the bok choy never ends, they put a lot in. When you're in the area and want a cheap Japanese/Hawaiian (Poke) inspired food, or some bubble tea stop in for a lunch. If you're looking for authenticity, maybe move on.
