TL:DR - Decent Boba to hit the spot. I used to hit up the San Jose location a lot when I was in college and was glad I could find this local Quickly to get my green apple snow fix. If you've been to a Quickly's then you know it's fairly average boba but the price is okay. The snacks offered here are okay. I've had the takoyaki here and it was a bit on the mushy side. The puffs are okay. Everything is a bit sweet for me nowadays even the regular black tea that I order with pearls The tables feel a bit sticky. But I come here quite a bit regardless. They used to only play Asian pop music but they've started playing a bit of everything now. I like the ambiance the k-pop provided. read more

I gotta admit the strawberry star jelly amused me! and they were yummy! i got the taro with pearls and strawberry stars. My brother got the Strawberry milk tea and it was very faint flavored. i wouldn't recommend that flavor. i will definitely return! read more

I'm giving this place a 3 star rating because the lady that helped me was really nice. She gave me a stamp on my frequent stamp card even though it didn't apply. The worker there was also nice. Other than that, the drink I got was not good. It was cheap, however. A regular was only $3. I came here since it's close to my work and was on my lunch so why not. It's tea! I got a lychee green tea and it was so sweet. I could already tell by looking at the cup that there was a layer of syrup just sitting at the bottom. I have a big sweet tooth and sweet is my thing but this drink was too much. It was as if I was drinking a cup of lychee syrup and no tea. I couldn't drink it right away because I wanted the ice to melt to dilute it. Even after the ice melted, it was still so sweet. Perhaps if I ordered it less sweet then I'd consider ordering the same drink again since lychee green tea is one of my go to drinks. Not sure if i'll come back. There are other better milk tea places in the area. read more

So disappointed with Quickly, we arrive hours before they are suppose to close. This is our go to spot, all we wanted was our Taro Milk Tea . This isn't the first time it's happened either read more

Great bubble tea!!!! I love coming here afterschool and just loading up on boba and the popcorn chicken- YASSS. However, when I showed the place to my mom, there was like, no one there, and the employees behind the counter were goofing off and giving free samples and tastes to their friends who had came. They were friendly, don't get me wrong, but I just wish they were a little more devoted to us the customers. Plus, it was the first time ordering bubble tea, so some guidance would've been SO HELPFUL. And the guidance they provided me? Told me to order Passionfruit Bubble Tea. YUCK. NO me gusta. Mango, however, is bombbbb. Be careful of flavors, it's a hit and a miss. Employees, I'm sure, do come and go, so maybe my experience was a one-time deal, we'll see. But good enough for RWC, which lacks any bubble tea places, other than, like 1 or 2. read more

Place is good and cheap. Very known place on woodside plaza. They are fast with there beverages but as of today they were on strike and had nearly nothing to serve. It did bother me that the employees knew less then they are supposed to. When in business place is great. read more

-They ran out of boba and it was only 6:30 pm on a Friday night. -There was clumps of powder in my milk tea. -The place was dirty. *Never ever coming back. read more

Pearl milk tea drinks and fried food are delicious under new management. Pricing cannot be beat--Only $3 for pearl drinks in a tall cup...cheaper than other brands. Sugar/ice level can be adjusted. Pearls are chewy, soft, and perfect. Clean store with good layout and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere with upbeat music! Good place to hang out with friends. This place has a lot of food and drinks to pick from their menu. read more

The new ownership seems to have turned this place around for the better. Lines are faster and the folks that work there are friendly! Glad to see them up their game and am happy to return there as a customer! read more

The drinks are good and the food is good but they like to start closing up early like 30minutes to an hour before closing they won't serve anything from the kitchen . If you close at 10 then close at 10. read more

I like quickly but this location is terrible because it's always dirty and the food takes a long time to come out but it's hot. Also the portions are a lot smaller than other quickly locations. They are under staffed. read more

There closed half of the time because they don't have workers . I quit recently because I was getting paid less than minimum wage.

Ordered avocado snow, gave me honey dew instead. Just cause they're both green doesn't mean they're the same, stupid.

Im a very very busy person, thats why i love going to quickly because its one of the places where i can get something yummy and quick, i normally go to the san mateo location, which i have no complains about. Today i decided to try the redwood city location, i was so excited to order because i havent had quickly in a while. Me and my brother walked in. We waited on the girl for about 5 min, literally, for her to take our order! 5 min is too long if youre just standing there!! Finally she walks up to us, with no smile or a greeting which is definitely a big no no to me! Anyway, we finished ordering, she didnt ask for our names or nothing, which i thought was pretty weird, but i didnt think about it too much. It got a bit busy after we came in and our drinks took long. But then i started noticing that people that came in after us, got their drinks before we did! And that pissed me off! How can you forget when we were the first ones there???? I walked up to the counter and she looked at me and i asked her where our drinks are? Then she asked what i ordered?!?! Like wtf are you kidding me?? Ive been waiting here for about 25 min and she havent even made out drinks yet! They definitely need to pick up here! I work in customer service so i know when someone is giving me their effort or not, and she did not give me even 10% of it! Never going back here! And btw, the drink that i waited for, for about 35 min was not even good! Waste of time, money, and employees just ruined my mood! I was late to the family function that i had to go to! Ridiculous! Train your employees more and i hope they listen to these reviews! read more

Best Quickly location I've been to. The curry fish balls are quite excellent. Large clean space with friendly service makes this one a standout. read more

Extremely slow service. Bad customer service. I ordered a hot tapioca milk tea, and waited for 10 minutes, and it did not have other customers. The cashier refused to give out spoon for me to eat the tapioca. She pointed to straws and said "that's how everybody does." I wonder if I should sue the store for insisting me to use the straw in the hot drink. read more

I like quickly for their milk tea. But I wouldnt give them a four or a five star. I would recommend this place for anyone is a fan of boba drinks. read more

Second time at this Quickly and it was much, much worse. Where is the manager at this location? Does he/she train the employees? First Visit: I went to this Quickly back in April and because it was fairly new I figured that the low staff was a reason for their slow service but that simply is not the case. There seems to be some kind of disjoint between a cashier and people making the drinks. The drinks themselves were not perfect at the first visit, but it was ok. The long wait and HUGE lines created was due to slow service overall. Second Visit (today): Terrible. I ordered a Tarot Snow with Tapioca and a Peach Smoothie. While we waited 15+ minutes for our order... myself and a growing number of customers had to hear the young poorly trained high-school-summer-break employees argue constantly (hence why I marked the noise level as: 'Loud'). They had a horrible system (or lack thereof) of running around and not really making any of our drinks properly. Two young boys ahead of us were given Mango drinks and there was a problem with their order. Note, Quickly also ran out of tapioca! So they had to correct it... at least twice after. After much waiting I got my two drinks. The tarot drink was not well blended, big chunks of ice and did not taste like a normal tarot drink from Quickly. It lacked any flavor as a matter of fact -- Was not made right. Even worse was the peach smoothie. It tasted like it had mango syrup in it and was very unbalanced and 'chemical' tasting. Also had large chunks of poorly blended ice and ingredients. My girlfriend and I were very dissatisfied once we walked out and we did not want to go back and deal with it. I normally don't review bad experiences but this Quickly set a benchmark. Gordon Ramsay would have a field day at this joint. Avoid and goto La Sweet @ Sequoia Station (Excellent small operation, and they know what they are doing). read more

This is the first time I went to Quickly in Redwood City. It's lunch time and I figured I should have the avocado shake with tapioca pearls for lunch ... so I ordered the large size to go ($5.45). The lady who took my order was very friendly and my order was ready in a few minutes. Never had to wait very long. The shake never had any taste of avocado and it tasted like ice water in light green color. The only good thing about it was the tapioca pearls. Because I was hungry (it's lunch time), I went ahead and finished most of it while driving back to work .... only enjoying the tapioca pearls. When I got back to work in Menlo Park, I called and told them about it. First, a guy answered the call, then I was referred to a lady. After asking if they use fresh avocado (they said they did) they mentioned that maybe they did not use a lot. (Really? They should know what amount of avocado or other ingredients to put in a large order.) The next thing the lady said was "I'm sorry" without offering anything. I went on to ask : "Is that all you're going to say?" Then, she offered that if I bring it back, she'll replace it. This time, I told her that I work in Menlo Park and that I almost finished it because I was hungry and she did not utter any word after that. She could have offered that the next time I visit them, my next avocado order is on the house. Offering a fresh one on my next visit would have won more stars in my books! Then, I asked, "Is that it?" And she said "yes", and then, I went on to say: "I'm going to Yelp this." It was silence after that, never heard anything else. Summary: 1. Customer Service is good when you're at the store and the store looks clean. 2. Never order avocado shake, does not even come close to the "avocado taste". 3. Customer Service sucks when you complain. They should automatically offer a free replacement without asking. I'm not sure how the other flavor really tastes like but I will never go back to this store again. read more

Seriously, this place is only open 75% of the time. Why do I say that? It's because out of the 4 times I've come here during their published business hours (posted on their window; glad yelp quickly updated that), they were closed 3 times. Waste of gas and waste of time. read more

Don't get the Orange milk tea Lol The popcorn chicken and mozzarella sticks are my favorite snacks while the tiger milk tea and honey green tea are my favorite drinks. To be honest there isn't anything special about quickly. There are tons of boba places, especially here in the peninsula. read more

Quickly at RWC, you think there is not much there,,,. Surprise, surprise.. What an amazing service, welcoming environment and refreshing to see that outstanding service leaders come in all ages. Ask for Jan Estacio, he is a gem, as well as his team. What a great experience in a quick bite read more

A big fan of the Quickly in downtown San Mateo so when we saw this location we decided to get some boba & taro egg puffs. Long story short, the drinks were wayyyy too sweet & they gave us soggy egg "puffs". No pic of the honey milk tea cause it went straight to trash, but I took my time to take of pic of the nasty egg puffs they served us. Wont be coming back ever. read more

They are never open. Every time I come to this location during business hours they are closed. Not sure why this place is still in business if they don't want to sell to customers read more

I have come to this place at least 8-9 times now and don't get why do many complain about the wait for their order. I have never waited long for drinks or good, or my large orders even! Recently stopped in with my husband and we were treated sooo well!! The young man "Yaun" who took our order took extra care of us and even the cook in the back, "Henry." The fruit drinks are a but sweet, so mt husband will stick to the regular teas or the taro. Every Jasmine milk tea I get is good and I love how this place has the super chubby cup size!! Get price for drinks and still love the crispy chicken. Must say these two guys made a great impression and hope they help me with my orders every time! Place always looks clean when I have been in and stocked...love the location by the shops I go to, so always make it in for a snack :) read more

The service at this location is the same as the other quickly SLOW MOTION. The boba was too soft not sure really why they dont get their act together there should be enough people to do the cashiering and doing the order I hate when the cashier have to do my drink and also touch money at the same time, :(. Oh well for me all quickly are pretty much the same - its just a quick fix if you are dying to get a boba drink or snack. read more

I have been there 3 times. I usually order bubble milk tea, however today I ordered spam musubi and popcorn chicken with my drink. My drink came out within 2 minutes. My food, on the other hand, came out 30 minutes later. My kids and I opted to eat there which was a mistake. The tables were dirty. It is hard to tell the last time they were cleaned. Next time I'll stick to their drinks on the go. I will not eat there or have their food again. read more

Not so quickly after all. Came in and ordered two things. Thai tea and chicken pop corn. 15 mins in and I didn't get what I wanted. Asked a girl that works here and she said "I don't know there's a lot of orders" and she just walks off. Couldn't you check at least? And let me know? Customers are pretty understanding. But this is just rude. read more

Peak hours and there's one employee to handle 12 customers in line. Stupid management.

I love this place. 5 stars.Customer for life. Hopefully they stay open since the space they are renting out has been occupied by so many different chinese food restaurants hahha read more

this is probably my worst service in a drink establishment that i ever had. you have a cantancorious old lady behind the cashier and helper was always on his phone in the front. the drinks were okay. i asked for waffle eggetts she gave me waffle fries and i asked for boba drinks. no boba. i just had to leave. never again i will go there. read more

I'm a regular here. One word for this place, AMAZING. I always get the Passion Fruit Black Tea with extra boba

Really nice popcorn chicken, boba, spam musubi, etc. Reasonable price. Nice staffs (They gave me a wrong order one time and accepted their mistake and corrected it. Friendly and professional). Clean place. read more

I came in here twice, before writing the review... The first time I came in, I got here 5 minutes before the closing time and they said that they can only make me a milk tea, which is not what I wanted. For all those, who will think "well then don't come in 5 minutes before the closing time" I would like to say: don't post a late closing time if you're not actually going to take people's orders. There are plenty of places that say that they close at 11 pm, meaning that's when they accept the last customers, i.e. anyone who WALKS in before 11 pm will still get seated and served. There are also places that state that the kitchen closes 30 minutes before their closing time, which is what they POST ON THEIR DOOR. Anyway, what really upset me is that they served the people that walked in RIGHT before me, literally, the last person from their group paid for the drinks as I was already standing in line. By the time it was my turn, it was still before their closing time. Oh, and unlike Lollicup (SoCal, I miss you so much) they pre-make their milk teas and leave them in the fridge overnight... So if you're coming in for a delicious boba tea in the morning, rest assured, you're getting yesterday's (or last week's?) tea. You're welcome. So that being said, I realize that it's not fair to rate a place poorly just because I came in late and maybe the employee just wanted to go home and be done with their day, so I made sure to come here again, during regular hours. They took 10 minutes to make my order, because one of the employees was talking to their friends, while the other one was being passive aggressive towards them... I asked for 1/2 of serving of boba and 1/2 of mango stars, I ended up getting full scoops of both and virtually no tea... When I asked them to re-make it, they rolled their eyes at me and just poured the tea from one cup to another, making the tea far too sweet and adding plain tea, not milk tea on top... Which totally messed up the flavor. So yeah, don't come here. read more

OK bubble tea in a pinch but not as high quality as I'd like. The tea base was weak, almost flavorless, and the milk tea was thin, not creamy. read more

Bad bad Quicklys!!! Shame on you! Out of flavors and not cooking food because the cook isn't in??? To top it off only one person working SMH! Not returning:/ Manager needs to step up his game, and keep this location clean and sell what they advertise. read more

It's the typical powdery-sweet Taiwanese franchise quickly. Not much else to add.

I recently had a very bad experience at this particular quicklys. It was filthy! First of all, they got my order all wrong! And when I recieved my drink and drank it halfway, I noticed that there was a fly floating inside of it. I got my drink exchanged but once I sat back down at the table and looked down, I saw a cockroach right next to my foot. I was so disgusted that I did not even finish my popcorn chicken and drink, I just threw them away and left. read more

The drinks and prices are great! They have a loyalty card which is nice.(have filled mine up yet) the down side to this place is the customer service. Way to many young people who don't know how to treat people! read more

Good popcorn chicken and waffle fries. Haven't tried any boba here yet but prices seem lower compared to your typical boba place. Good place to grab Taiwanese snacks since their menu is so huge and you have many options. read more
