    General Tso chicken, sweet, sour soup, and fried rice
    Janis B.

    I just reread my old review and down at the bottom I talked about the "wait" staff and I didn't realize it put the word "white" instead! It won't let me edit the dang thing so I hope nobody was offended

    Lychee smoothie with mango boba.
    Jaffrey Z.

    *came here bc cafe de Thai pei (sp?) was closed* Ordered the fried chicken, and let me just say--this stuff was divine! I'm talking crispy, seasoned perfection that could make Colonel Sanders rethink his life choices. Pretty sure they sell the seasoning too, which means I'll be back to hoard enough to season a year's worth of chicken (or maybe just sprinkle it on my cereal for fun). They've got the usual bottled drinks with the funky glass balls (you know the ones), but the real MVPs are the wild anime-themed sodas. Imagine Goku and a tentacle monster having a cola-off--yep, that's what's in their fridge. The small grocery section is also a treasure trove: hot sauces, noodles, and probably the secrets to the universe tucked somewhere on the shelves. My friend got a lychee smoothie with mango boba and acted like they'd just discovered the eighth wonder of the world. I stuck with Thai tea, which was unapologetically STRONG, like a caffeine roundhouse kick to the face, but balanced enough to keep it classy. Service? On point. These folks make you feel like family, but, like, the kind of family you actually like. It's probably more of a lunch vibe, but I'm definitely coming back to explore the menu more. Stay tuned for updates--this place might just become my boba spot.

    The service is always excellent, and the food is delicious! I have tried several dishes and all have been 10/10! Also very good priced, great for college students!

    Excellent place for boba milk tea that also apparently has a great variety of imported Asian snacks and drinks that may even be hard to find at your average Asian supermarket. I didn't get a chance to try any of their food, but the menu looked pretty good as being full of maybe Taiwanese/Chinese food offerings. I got the banana milk tea with boba with was superb. This place is also right next to Cafe Icon, which I gave 5 stars as the best sushi place in OKC/Edmond. Check this place out!

    Spring roll, cheese wonton.

    Alright, I'll have to give this place credit for the pricing. Any college student around the area - if you're starving and you want a good deal, this place is for you. It's like 6-7$ dollars for a good meal, so props to them for that. I know the combo meal comes with soup, choice of fried rice or white rice, your choice of a dish, and a spring roll, a cream cheese wonton. So all in all - really not too bad a price tag for all that. I even saw the fried rice portion which looked absolutely massive. That was roughly 7/8$ I think! So this place seems great in terms of value. I got the kung pao chicken - and it was so-so. Nothing great, and the fried rice was just alright as well. Needed more seasoning for sure. My boyfriend got the sesame chicken - which was actually really good! So eh. You probably win some and you lose some here. Ultimate pro would have to be their takoyaki! Very well done - crunchy on the outside, good portion, good price. I'd definitely come back for the takoyaki and their boba. Service was good, and I think even though the food was mostly alright, the value definitely outweighs it all. I'd come back!

    Sweet sauce like jello

    No rice delivered with my dishes but they did work hard at marking items gluten free. They also sent the order with no soy sauce and the duck sauce/sweet sauce is like jello. The egg drop soup is too. I called my Uber delivery with no response and then called the actual restaurant with no answer. I give them 3 stars for the effort on the GF but the items are basically incomplete or not edible. Though would be with minor changes.

    Food is good and extremely reasonably priced. Boba tea is great. Good service. Clean. The general tso chicken is good. Passion fruit green tea with boba was good.

    The first time I ventured to this cuisine I came simply for boboa tea, one of my favorite beverages. They have a wide range of flavors and I chose taro. It was delicious and creamy and everything I expected. They earned extra points because they are offering free beverages to healthcare workers with valid ID and check in. My second time I brought my husband and we ordered take-out for dinner. We both got the sesame chicken box with fried rice. I also got a mango milk tea and he got a caramel milk tea. The food was okay. They had some of the best prices I have seen for the options. We ordered egg rolls as appetizers. I would not order the sesame chicken again, it didnt taste right to me. I was told to try the mixed vegetables next time. The fried rice was okay and the crab rangoon was small and would have tasted wonderful if we ate in and it was fresh. Their egg rolls were pretty bland but I really enjoyed the spring roll that came with my box. They were extremely busy when we visited and the wait for our food was about 30 minutes. We will definately be coming back to try other entrees. You really can't beat the prices and the free drink!

    Waitress argued with me about my order and made me pay for two drinks. Ordered chicken fried stake rice box and none of it was that great.

    Quite a nice little hidden gem with mom & pop vibes…read more We ordered both types of dumplings, steamed and fried. I was hoping that the fried ones would be panfried on one side, not totally fried, but they were more on the fast foody "fried" side. The steamed ones were delicious. I had the Dan Dan noodles which were excellent and very satisfying. Normally I have to put extra sauce on noodle dishes to give it more flavor, but these were sufficiently tasty. My dad got the braised beef noodle, which was very light compared to other places, which is both a good and a bad thing. It was significantly less greasy, but also significantly less "explode your face" vibes. So depending on what type of braised beef noodle you prefer, you may or may not like this version. The chili oil potatoes were super addicting. I'd order them again. All in all, the place is very solid and worth a visit. I plan to come back and try the curry.

    Visited on a cool, rainy evening. Small mom and pop place (neat and clean) with only a couple other…read moretables taken. However, the service was a little slow for such a quiet night. We started with the lightly fried dumplings which were good. I had the spicy braised beef with medium spice level. The noodles tasted house made and just right. I did mix thoroughly to distribute the chili. The soup was very satisfying and got gradually spicier until the end when I was brought to tears (in the best way). My wife, who lived in Asian countries when young, was disappointed in her Chili Oil Dry Noodles. I'm allergic to peanuts so not able to describe. It's a small menu, but more than enough. Definitely worth a try.
