My new obsession. Never ordered from here before but when my daughter comes home she always orders from here. My husband doesn't eat this type of food so after a medical appointment I decided to get some Thai iced tea as I have had that before at other places. I decided to try the salad bowl. The young lady told me how to order using the little cards which was great so you can take your time. Omg. I ordered the rice with all types of salad fixings. It's so delicious. The tea. I could easily down 3 of these. It's expensive so it's a once in a while type thing. Just one little caveat. The Irondequoit sign inside is spelled wrong. Gave me a chuckle. read more

Fast service lots of drinks and very cute vibes! Good size and good prices. I'd def come here again :)

I like Taichi but this location sucks...I ordered a bowl and got some nasty dry burrito instead. Also who bleaches a bathroom at 7pm when the location closes at 930... uh. anyways never go here unless you want to be disappointed. read more

What a waste of money. I go in for a boba tea, I got it and there's max 5 boba in my large drink. I went back in line, of course paying extra for "extra", and it's just a normal amount of boba that I should've gotten the first time around. Nothing extra about it. I got home, sipped my drink, and the tapioca was HARD. 0/10, worst taichi in Rochester read more

Small sitting area. We had kids with us so we sat on the little couches. The boba tea and smoothies were a huge hit with adults and kids. Service was great. The recommendations were spot on. We had the Teriyaki Chicken for the less adventurous of the group and the Tonkotsu Ramen with Pork for the rest of us. The kids all loved the ramen and we will definitely order everything again next time. read more

I did not have the good experience with this location. I came here around 6pm. The place was clean and plenty parking lots. There were few groups of customers waiting for their orders. I ordered my food using the table so I didn't speak with any staff. I got 2 protein rice bowl and sushi burrito and boba milk. The burrito was okay. The rice bowl looked very messy and all sauces I ordered were missing. I did not know if at that time, the restaurant didn't want customers to dine in or what, but my dine-in order turned into to go by their system and I received food with no fork/spoon or napkins. read more

Love this place for a quick healthy poke bowl, their sushi burritos are delicious as well. My favorite location is the Ithaca location, it's much larger and the ingredients are consistently fresh. However Irondiquoit is a fair 2nd. The location in smaller so we always get it to go. For the Irondiquoit location, it can be hit or miss depending on the staff. Some don't care and some are really nice. I have left there enough times with the wrong dressings or sauces that now I check. Highly recommend their matcha bubble tea, I usually get it sugar free. Yummo! read more

YUM. I love trying new foods and I'm honestly not sure how I never knew about this chain...there's so many throughout Rochester. The customer service has been pretty good the past two times I've gone. The ambiance is casual, nice music. read more

This is my "closest to home" Tai Chi location and I really adore it. It doesn't have the same layout as many of the other locations, and I will say that I prefer the interior and flow of the Henrietta location. BUT - this location stands on its own in terms of quality, service and deliciousness. The sugary sweet taro bubble tea is my forever bubble tea order, and I love the sushiritos as well. Grab the food menu order sheet prior to heading up to the register, and then bubble tea ir ordered up at the bar. They are offering takeout and delivery during COVID-19 at this location only (no ramen), which is truly amazing. I am looking forward to ordering at some point very soon, and supporting the amazing team at Tai Chi! If you're still waiting to grab some goodies, this is the moment! read more

1st time to have bubble tea and food at Tai Chi. We went to the Rochester location as that was the one nearest to us but it was closed. It was Christmas Eve and all locations were closed except for the Irondequoit location and so we went for another 15-min drive. It's worth the trip though as the food we ordered was delicious. The salad bowl was really good. We all ordered salad. The takeout box was packed to the hilt which was great. Two people can actually share one order. Lol! I tried to finish mine but was only able to eat 75% of it. The mango green tea was refreshing. My family ordered kiwi, passionfruit and pineapple green teas. All good. read more

Heard this spot had sushi burritos - so, of course I had to check it out! The results - AMAZING! At a great price, the sushi burrito had a nice size and was absolutely packed with flavor! I will be back again. And again. And again. They allow you to customize exactly what you want, instead of most places that force you into choosing their preset options. The bonus? Incredibly delicious bubble tea to help wash down that yummy sushi burrito! read more

Taichi Bubble Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irondequoit, New York

This is a great fast casual spot with made to order burritos and bowls, and delicious hot and cold tea in every flavor imaginable. If you like to customize your meal, this is the place for you. I find myself here when I'm out running errands and need a quick and healthy lunch. The food comes out fast and the veggies are fresh. I usually order a cold fruit flavored tea with "regular" tapioca. I think I've had peach and passionfruit tea flavors, which are both so good. The drink options can be overwhelming, but the staff is helpful with suggestions. The only issue I've had here is that I had to go up and request avocado on my bowl two visits in a row even though it was checked on my checklist. read more

This place having bubble tea in the name is kind of misleading. I am by Culver Ridge plaza a lot, and I remember seeing the sign when Taichi was originally moving in, and I was like gross!! Tea, yuck! And I never thought much else of it. Fellow yelpers started posting bubble tea pictures, and posting that they had food, too, and I started paying more attention. I'd have never imagined they had bowls without seeing it on here. As a newbie, I felt a little lost. The menus behind the counter were off, so there was only a big menu down the hall on the wall, which wasn't too helpful because you had to remember what to order. I had seen the paper you fill out for your bowl online, so I started with that. I ordered a salad bowl, added rice, lettuce, kale, tofu, carrots, avocado, cream cheese and wonton noodles. I ordered the spicy mayo on the side in case it was too hot for me. Apparently adding rice makes it a rice bowl. The girl behind the counter told me that the only difference between the salad bowl and rice bowl is the scoop of rice. I personally didn't like the rice, so I got a salad bowl next time. I did love my bowl though! I loved the cream cheese bites in it, and the spicy mayo was awesome!!! Everything tasted fresh, and I loved it. So, as my first bubble tea experience, I did feel kinda stupid. I had looked online, and knew I wanted the Taro Milk Tea. I was fully prepared to try this and hate it and throw the whole thing in the trash, so I decided to get the Taro one and go all in. I had read online it was supposed to taste like cookies and cream. She asked me something about boba and tapioca, and since the menu wasn't in front of me, I just said ok to whatever she said, lol. I picked up my tea and poked a hole with the giant straw and took a sip. I really didn't know what to expect, so I was happy when it was at least tolerable. I got a sip of it, and one of the tapioca balls at the bottom. The balls were kinda weird and gummy, but they were ok. I was really happy that I didn't choke on one of them while I was in the restaurant and make a fool of myself! The "tea" didn't really taste like tea at all, which was fine with me. It did kind of taste like cookies and cream, but if fruit loops had sat in the milk first. It had some sort of slight fruity taste. It was ok...kind of even good, but I don't think it's something I'd get again. However, after having some idea of what I was getting, and having looked at the menu online, I had a better idea of what I wanted to try the next time. Basically, if you'd like the flavor in milk, you should be ok. Like strawberry milk, or banana milk, or coconut milk. etc. So by my next visit, I was a pro and knew what I was doing...maybe. :) You can easily tell who the first timers to this place are. By the second time you know right where the forms are for your bowl, so you go right to them. I even helped someone find them, which made me feel special, lol. And the tea menu behind the counter was lit up this time, but I didn't even need it! I ordered my salad bowl, and I got a Vanilla Milk Tea with strawberry boba. Truth be told, while I do like vanilla and strawberry, I really got this combo because I thought it would be a pretty picture. And it was! I'm a sucker for a pretty drink. The vanilla tea definitely tasted more like tea than the taro. It was still drinkable though, and I don't like tea. The strawberry boba balls were also good, and much more juicy than gummy like the tapioca ones. I think I would prefer something in the middle. I might try the yogurt boba next time. I really don't think bubble tea is for me, but I see how it's fun to combine all the different flavors if you do like it. And there's ton of combinations you could try! But the bowls here are awesome, and I will keep coming back for those! The rice bowl I got came with a ton of dressing on the side, so I assumed my salad would. For some reason, I only got one spicy mayo this time, which wasn't enough for even half of my salad. I'll be sure to ask for extra next time. And I asked for extra cream cheese this time, and I definitely got that! I love that taste of cream cheese in the salad. So good! If you feel weird coming in here, try not to. I think they're used to it. If you go to this location, the sheets to fill out are right inside the door to the right. And if you look at the pictures on here, you can be prepared with your bubble tea order before you get there. Without Yelp, I'd have never have even gone in this place, and now I'll be here all the time! Go check it out. read more

I visited Tai Chi Bubble Tea for lunch and got the Sushi Burrito and Mango Green Tea. Both were great! First, I absolutely love the decor here -- they have tons of cute panda stuffed animals (that you can purchase for $10) and lots of vibrant greenery and flowers. This works as a fast casual type of place. You'll place your order at the counter and then you can fill out a menu card for a sushi burrito, poke bowl, or salad bowl. There are *tons* of options for fillings, including protein, veggies, crunchies, and lots of sauces. I settled on the burrito with crabstick and multiple mix ins and was very satisfied. All of the ingredients were nice and fresh. The burrito looked on the smaller side but was surprisingly filling. They also have a bunch of options for drinks. I got the mango green tea with lychee jellies. If you're new to bubble tea, it's probably going to be sweeter than what you would normally think of for tea. It's delicious, though! I really enjoyed everything about Tai Chi Bubble Tea and will return again soon! read more

I'm so excited that Tai Chi Bubbletea is now on my side of town! This is actually my first time here, and I've been longing to try it out!! I ordered a mango green tea with the tapioca pearls and I tried out the sushi burrito. I ordered for take out as it was right around 2:40 and filling up with high schoolers getting out of school. Its right across the street from the High school. The location is good though with plenty of parking right in front or around to the east of the building. Inside is a little dark, but the decor matches the cuisine... And I'd be happy to chill here for an hour or two getting some work done. I made my way home and indulged in my burrito alone. It was so good. A perfect mix spicy tuna, pickles radish, avocado and a few other things. The friend onions made a nice crunch. I grabbed a menu to take along because I would like to be better prepared with my choices next time. I'm looking forward to going back hopefully for a dine in experience with a friend. And not around high school dismissal time. Care to join me? read more

The bubble tea was delicious, as usual. It left me wanting more. I tried the tacos. It was interesting. My brain had trouble processing that there were Asian flavors coming out of a crunchy taco shell. I loved the collection of sauces. The ingredients were fresh. Everything was packaged with care and very neat. Next time I would try something else. But this was a fun light lunch. I believe I liked the volcano one the best. Very messy to eat though. Not a problem for me, but maybe not good date food! The shrimp was not overcooked and did not seem old. read more

Always looking for lean but protein filled meals. I love the variety of meals and the amount of flavor. I favor the burritos here but my wife prefers the bowls. You can go sweet or spicy depending on your preference. I like the sweet. They also have amazing bubble tea rounding out the delicious meal options. Side note- If you're into cool back drops for your social media account.. they have a full greenery filled wall read more

Tried this place twice before I decided to give this location, specifically, 2 stars. It's basically run by teenagers or something of the sort, and they're very apathetic to the job. I've ordered tonkotsu and miso Ramen and they were lacking flavor. In fact, I got sick from their tonkotsu. On another occasion, I decided to get two bubble teas to go a few days ago. Both had boba, and the boba itself was very mushy. I don't think I'll ever come to this spot again. Their Greece counterpart is amazing, only wish they'd retrain their current staff or something....bc the quality is extremely subpar. read more

I've said it before and I'll say it again- a place that is good for kids is a score for me! Relaxed setting, simple menu, fresh ingredients! Full of flavor and lean!

Clean, fast service. Soup was excellent but like most places these days, prices are a bit high.

If you want bubble tea go here it's the best place in town all around. Go here for noodles, burritos, tacos, and soup!! Best everything

The Best Location In Rochester! We used to go to the More Ave location, but it felt like each time we ordered it took forever for the food to be done and it was sloppy. We love this location!! They do a great job at putting the sauces on the side and they put a decent amount of greens and rice in the rice bowls. If you are looking to try a bubble tea I would recommend the Tarro Tea! Don't be shy, get extra boba! We usually get ours with no ice and no sugar and it's pretty dang good! We always order online on seamless and then go and pick it up. We haven't had an issue with our orders. read more

Have been to this store and the branch in Pittsford, which is closed at the moment. The bubble teas are good sized and moderately flavorful. The boba is fun to eat, especially the passion fruit. The tapioca boba can clump together at the bottom of the cup, so shake it up well as soon as you get it. (The drinks come completely sealed with straws that you use to punch a hole in the plastic top.) I like the food. When they had ramen, their offerings were pretty good.... Unfortunately, no ramen being served now. I had tacos and a rice bowl. The portions are moderate sized. 3 tacos were tasty and quality much better than, say, Moes but you would get a lot more food from a chain Mexican restaurant than here. I guess you call in for grub hub... or you walk in to order, then wait in your car and they bring it out, which is what I did. I will go again, mostly to get the bubble teas... and their ramen carry out when they bring it back. read more

I had food delivered and sauces were missing, the avocado had skin on it and one of the drinks had a very strong chemical taste. I call and the woman said her name is Joy and she is the manager. She told me the avocado was normal and pointed out no one else has complained. She said nothing about the sauce missing and the sauces make the meal but all in all those things were not my big concerns and would not have prompted a call. My issue was the strong chemical taste my drink had. I was concerned what I took into my body from the few sips I took. I tried to tell Joy this but she cut me off assuming I was going to say the machines were dirty. She explained how they are washed between each drink. I said that's were I was going. Was there cleaner still in the machine. Joy said the clean with hot water no chemicals. Then she tells me she has used that machine all day to make drinks and no one else has complained. All of the food issues aside my issue is the tone Joy had and her repeated statement NO ONE ELSE HAS COMPLAINED. I expect more maturity and professionalism out of a manager especially when a customer has a Heath concern. read more

I have always enjoyed a good mango Bubble Tea, and these guys do not disappoint.! I happen to be in the area and I figured what the heck, I would stop in and give it try. I enjoyed their bubble tea so much, that I immediately bought 2 more! My wife had one of their Poke bowls: 1) It tasted a little fishy 2) The rice was hot which probably accounts for item #1 Note: There is a ton of plants at this location and it can get very humid in there.

I went to the CollegeTown location to meet friends. Atmosphere is casual and calm. The bubble tea is very good.
