    Taro milk tea

    Great hidden establishment in Chinatown. Customer service was great and they had our order ready in a reasonable amount of time. The food is made to order and was fresh. It did not taste as it's been sitting under a heater for hours. I really appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant. I will be coming back when I'm need of a cold drink.

    1. The smoothie was delicious with a good blend! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! 3. There were a few indoor tables! 4. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! 5. Parking lot is small! Note: There is a 50 cents charge for each credit card transactions less than $20! Photo: Strawberry Banana Smoothie

    The milk tea here leans way more on the sweet/artificial side, but it's a nostalgic boba spot for me. A nice refresher if you need a sweet drink while exploring Chinatown. More affordable than other boba spots.

    Popcorn chicken Oreo smoothie boba sweet and sour sauce

    Haven't been to quickly in a few years, it's gotten smaller in store size. Still a nice ambiance, calm atmosphere, stereo sound could get some fixing, otherwise nice place to grab a quick refreshing drink! Popcorn chicken was yummy 7.5/10 boba 9/10 the barista was friendly and handled my food with care.

    Wanted the classic boba and popcorn chicken combo and was fortunate to have found Quickly. This place is not only affordable but so delicious. Had a taro milk tea with grass jelly at 25% sweetness. It was just right. The showstopper was the spicy popcorn chicken. Spicy was optional. They give your a good amount to the point it made my partner and I full. The chicken was juicy with that perfect Taiwanese seasoning.

    I like to pass by this boba place during my day off from college. The service was great and friendly cashier. My favorite drink is strawberry banana smoothie and I like their foods as a snack appetizer, especially I like their squid balls.. While I'm there they had a outlets to plug to charge your phone or ur devices.. I will always pass by this boba place.

    A boba and cheap eats hidden gem in Chinatown! Walking in, I found the interior to be very mom and pop like which is a good sign. I got the house milk tea w/ boba and it was solid, but my dad got the avocado smoothie and it was very good! It was made with fresh avocados, was smooth and not icy, and not too sweet. It reminded me of one of my childhood favorites, cold avocados mashed with condensed milk and it tasted like that, but a smoothie version. The boba was also so cheap, $3.65 for a small milk tea like you don't see prices like that for boba nowadays! I also wanna try their food one day which looks good and cheap.

    After an hour stroll along the few blocks of this beloved Los Angeles Chinatown, it was only right to get something to quench the thirst. I didn't find any place interesting enough for it, so I decided to walk back to my car and just settle it with the bottle water I already had in there. I parked at the Cathay Bank lot. It's a good thing I turned my head on my walk back because that is how I found this place. They do offer snacks, not just drinks, which explains why I was immediately hit by the smell of fried food soon as I walked in. It was pretty strong, I'll admit, so if it's like this all the time, they might consider upgrading those vents! I'm on a wintermelon tea phase, so I was glad to find that on their selection. Got a large and boba to go with it as well. Although I knew it wouldn't take long, I stepped out for a few seconds because, as mentioned earlier, that fried food smell was becoming borderline overwhelming. Got my drink and started my trek back to the car. It really was refreshing, but I felt it was missing a bit of an umph. The general flavor was there, but it felt it could have used a bit more of whatever mix they use. It almost felt a little watered down. The boba was a perfect chew, though, so they got that right. FOOD: (uhm... drink!) 3.5. SERVICE: 4. Friendly staff. VALUE: 3. Fair and as expected. PARKING: Metered parking and plenty of private lots for $5 for the day. Wasn't an issue when I came through on a Saturday afternoon. OVERALL: 3.5. But I'm gonna keep them in my radar should I find myself around here again. (Honestly, I didn't really see a lot of places like this - then again, I didn't really look - but still... good enough.) Might just try one of their grub to go with a drink next time...

    Brings back memories of getting popcorn chicken and boba milk tea after getting off school. Love how they are still so affordable too! Their drinks are all mostly under $5 like milk tea, smoothies, slushy n more. My favorite bento box was the Taiwanese sausage rice and it even comes with free drink! If you're looking for a quick fix on popcorn chicken and milk tea then this place. They are having promotion on $1 watermelon juice too!

    Lucia Y.

    Quickly offers tasty and affordable bento boxes, especially the fried fish fillet with minced meat sauce, boiled egg, broccoli, and rice--an amazing deal! The fried dumplings are delicious, and the milk tea is refreshing. Great value with generous portions!

    Oolong tea and Thai tea
    Rachel C.

    I really try not to do less than positive reviews but this place was one that I think could use some improvement. Staff here were nice and somewhat friendly but it would help if you spoke Chinese. We ordered Taiwanese sausage rice, at 12:40p or so, and were told they sold out. So we pivoted and ordered minced pork on rice and teriyaki chicken. It came with drinks so we ordered an oolong tea and a Thai tea. The drinks came out fast. But the oolong tasted pretty awful...almost like diluted coffee. Definitely not oolong. The Thai tea was also not quite Thai tea, just a sugary flavor. The food took a long time, despite the place being nearly empty. We took it to go because there was no dine in. That meant we didn't see our food till later. The teriyaki chicken turned out to be fried chicken cutlet, and the minced ground pork was not really ground pork, but a gravy with a little ground meat and small tiny pieces of pork belly fat. I suppose I shouldn't expect too much, but this was rather disappointing. Not sure I will return again. Perhaps a revamp is in order...sorry.

There's plenty of parking along a hiking trail across the street of Kissaten Corazon. You'd have to use the crosswalk to access the cafe. As a speakeasy is, you have to look for this place. You don't have to look that hard since there's a small sign outside, leading into the cafe. Once you cross the first part, you'll see two bathrooms and outdoor seating. Once you come inside, you'll notice a tiny window with menus to the side. You order with the kind baristas, before taking a seat inside, at the bar, or outside. The inside is beautiful. There's a bar area for you to drink your coffee. You can also sit along the perimeter, near the piano, or near some bookshelves. There are numerous areas to sit and admire the inside. They have random vintage decor and shelving. As for drinks, I had ordered their strawberry sesame latte and their egg sando. Their egg sando comes with three baby dill pickles and some ground pepper sprinkled on top. It was delicious and truly hit the spot. Their latte was also delicious with a balance of coffee and fruit. The sesame isn't overpowering, so I wouldn't worry about that when ordering. After eating, we bussed our own plates and cups by putting them in a basket near their water dispenser. They seem to offer other beverages that weren't coffee, as well. I think I'll have to come back again soon! Again, it was the perfect experience.

Unfortunately, this was the only part of my visit that fell a bit short. While the sweetness level was balanced, I didn't get the earthy, fresh matcha flavor I was hoping for. The matcha tasted somewhat mild, and the quality didn't stand out compared to some other specialty matcha cafés I've visited. Overall, I enjoyed the ambiance, service, and aesthetic of the space. While the matcha wasn't my favorite, I'd still return to try other drinks and appreciate the beautiful atmosphere.

It does seem like this place gets aggro customers for whatever reason. I can't picture it actually being about poor service, because the staff is nice, prices are more or less consistent with everywhere else of a similar quality.

    By my third visit to Heavy Water Coffee, I realized this is officially becoming one of my spots…read more I've had the Cold Brew Cream Top, The Blue Heaven, and today just a regular drip coffee. All were excellent. Obviously...I came back. But honestly, the first thing I noticed on my very first visit was how comfortable it felt. I'm originally from more mid-sized cities like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, so having a coffee shop where you can walk in and just shoot the shit matters to me. I'm a yapper. I love community. I like trying new places, but I also really value establishing my "spots" when I'm settling into a neighborhood. The specialty drinks here are exactly that: special. The menu feels unique and carefully crafted. But at the end of the day, I'm also just a genuine coffee lover, and the drip coffee is EXCELLENT. I also love that they micro-roast locally here in LA. I really value supporting local businesses, especially ones that clearly care about sourcing, craft, and community. While I'll absolutely be returning to shoot the shit, I'll also definitely be grabbing a bag of beans soon because I love the ritual of making coffee at home too. I also want to say this because I noticed some of the harsher reviews before visiting: this is a small neighborhood coffee shop, not a massive corporate chain built around speed and volume. Sometimes there's one person working. Sometimes service is slower because drinks are being made carefully and intentionally. Personally, I'd rather wait a few extra minutes for a thoughtfully made drink from a local business than get rushed through another soulless assembly line coffee experience. And yes, quality coffee costs money, especially in LA. Responsibly sourced beans, local roasting, quality ingredients, rent, and paying workers fairly all cost money. If someone wants the absolute cheapest possible coffee experience, there are plenty of giant chains built for that. But places like this are important because they create actual neighborhood culture and community. The staff have always been incredibly kind to me, and you can tell the owner cares as much about people as coffee. Will absolutely continue supporting. PLEASE SHOP LOCAL!!!
