I first visited this location at the beginning of 2026 during a short trip from the West Coast…read more From the moment I walked in, the staff greeted me warmly. I loved the service, the ambiance, and of course the coffee so much that I ended up stopping in every single day while I was on the East Coast. Raheem and Harry offered great suggestions on different blends, and each day I tried something new--always paired with the same friendly smiles and exceptional service. I returned over the Fourth of July weekend and stopped in again, where Raheem and Harry greeted me right away. To my surprise, they both remembered me. Once again, I received outstanding customer service and delicious coffee. The place was spotless, the atmosphere inviting, and the service consistently top‑tier. I've already recommended this location to my clients and encouraged them to make it a point to stop by. Excellent job to Raheem, Harry, and the rest of the team. Service like this is exactly what keeps customers coming back.

I'm not sure if this is common at Arabic or Yemeni coffee shops, but the workflow here felt really inefficient. It seemed like only one person could handle the register. Maybe they're understaffed or still figuring things out, but they need a better system soon or they'll start losing customers. The vibe is nice, though. If the service were faster, I'd probably stay longer and order more. There are plenty of other great coffee shops nearby, so I just can't justify waiting nearly an hour for coffee.

The decor is unmatched. The young lady behind the counter greeted immediately and was helpful with my undecisiveness. I chose the Mango Marble Green Tea Latte substituted milk with oat and added regular pearls. The young lady did inform me the base of this drink is regular milk made. It wasnt a lot so I decided to keep my selection. I am excited that I kept my selection as its one I would have never chose as I only get non dairy drinks with lychee and boba. Its a little on the costly side for a 16oz but I will definitely return if in the area.

"You have to give me a chance to explain," Hiccup rationalizes. "I'm not listening to anything you have to say." "Then I won't speak," Hiccup promises. "Just let us show you." Astrid begrudgingly climbs aboard the night fury for a ride that starts off in roller-coaster-like terror only to transform into something serendipitous and magical, giving her a chance to feel the clouds sift through her fingers, before watching the northern lights dance across the sky in fluorescent greens above those same clouds. "But if we can change your mind," Hiccup reassures himself out loud, before Astrid scoffs, What? Are you going to take everyone up for a magical ride [in a dragon]?" At the Gong Cha located at 8194 Westside Blvd in Fulton, Maryland, you too can take a moment to be transfixed by the platform tables barely two feet above the ground, bordered by walls decorated with lush grass and kaleidoscopically-colored butterflies, the pink unicorn holding a miniature garden of amethyst-hued shrubs or weeds, or the cat, the elephant, or the reindeer, all in vibrant colors, perched and waiting to be seen. Perhaps you are asking, "But what about the bubble teas or the ice teas? My wife ordered an extra large, sparkling, passion fruit tea, which was supposed to have 30% the normal amount of sugar; she also ordered an extra large grapefruit green tea with light ice and zero added sugar; and I ordered an extra large peach green iced tea with plenty of ice and no added sugar. Although we weren't entirely convinced that that one of the three beverages was made exactly to our specific instructions, I am still very eager to return. On the down side, they don't open until 11:00 a.m., so, if you are like us and you are eager to get your shopping done as early as possible, you may have to return here after all of your other errands, rather than being able to start with one of their delicious iced teas, freshly made, in hand.

He ended up not getting a drink at all. I got the coconut milk tea with regular boba. I can't stand those popping boba. I ordered some many years ago, from Amazon, to try them before they were popular and found them too fruity and sour. Tapioca boba, though? LOVE THAT. I adore the chew! The tea is made with Earl grey, which I gotta respect as a Trekkie ;) but the bergamot flavor has always struck me as lemony, like fruity pebbles. It goes great with the coconut flavors. I really like this one. The space was empty and wonderfully air conditioned. Would recommend

It was too sweet for me , I ordered 50% sugar and it was still really sweet. I'm just not into sweet drinks . But I will definitely try again at different time with a different style drink.

Tried this place for the first time today. Got a few things:…read more1) Jasmine almond milk tea w/boba - this was fine I think. I don't usually get almond but it's kind of an interesting flavor. The drink was refreshing though I don't think I'd get it again. 2) Taiwanese fried chicken. The flavor wasn't bad, but I'd say it was pretty peppery for "mild." There is actually a huge amount of chicken, but very little sauce that comes with it. The chicken is also very chewy. Not dry but I do wonder if it was overcooked a little. 3) Salmon onigiri. Ok. Rice was a bit dry. Salmon was ok but the little cubes were falling out as I ate it. Overall, the food was ok. The staff was nice. The environment was cute, definitely Taiwan style with LINE characters and a jumbo bear. The couch the bear sat on was a little stained looking. Menu was a little disjointed and the offerings were written in multiple places, but nowhere altogether. It seemed like there wasn't a ton of business at 4pm on a Wednesday, but I kind of understand why.

I hate runny ice cream and this was the complete opposite. It was chewy and showed zero signs of ice cream soup even after 5 minutes. I loved it so much I came by the next day with the kids. I ordered the exact same flavor and what I got was a soupy mess. I'm not sure what changed within 24 hours but I was so disappointed. I don't know if something went wrong with the freezers but the ice cream clearly wasn't being chilled at the right temperature. Texture aside, the flavors here are great. I'm hoping it was a fluke so I can give this place their last star.
