So I'm just going to get right into it! This place is decorated nicely and was very quiet. I didn't know what I wanted to order seeing as though they have quite a lot to choose from so the staff did assist me in figuring out what to order. They offer military discount which was nice and I ended up paying about $12 for a large tea and chicken bites. Now for the tea I got the passion fruit and guava mixed together then added kiwi popping boba. FREAKING DELICIOUS! I also ordered the chicken bites and wouldn't recommend them AT ALL. I didn't even fully bite into them because they didn't look appetizing to me. They were super greasy and just looked gross so I tossed them immediately. Overall, I would recommend the tea but be cautious when ordering the food! read more

I wasn't craving bubble tea, so I had the genius idea to get Vietnamese coffee with bubble tea instead in honor of National Coffee Day. A mistake, unfortunately. I do not know why I was expecting a unique taste. It was very watered down and disappointing. I got some comfort from the bubbles though. Maybe if I ever find myself back in the area, I will try their bubble tea instead of coffee. read more

My friend ordered a drink here and got a matcha latte. For the non barista crowd, latte just means milk but they put coffee in her drink. When we got the drink we brought it to the register to ask them to remake it without coffee because every other tea place just puts matcha and milk in their matcha lattes. They refused to remake it even though it wasn't her fault. Keep in mind this was an 8 dollar drink down the drain because my friend hates coffee. read more

It's a cute little shop. We ordered the dragon fruit tea and the milk tea with golden boba, grass jelly, and longan honey and the pandan waffle. The dragon fruit tea was literally just green tea with maybe three dragon fruit seeds at the bottom? It didn't even taste the slightest bit like dragon fruit at all. It tasted like jasmine. The milk tea was fine which was their saving grace. The tea flavor isn't too strong. The grass jelly is good and the boba is a nice texture and isn't too soft. The pandan waffle was another disappointment next to the dragon fruit tea. The waffle had the nice green color but no pandan flavor or scent at all. It's literally just a green waffle. Overall, I don't think the dragon fruit and waffles were worth the price. read more

Yum, yum, yum! We were driving from Florida to Michigan and needed some bubble tea. We took a detour off of 75 to get here and it was well worth it. My wife is new to bubble tea and she doesn't love the add-ins. They offered to let her try what she wanted and she was sold. She loved the blueberry jelly. She added that to peach tea. I got a brown sugar boba and it was delicious as well. So worth the detour and everyone was super nice and helpful. read more

Drinks are normal, banh trang tron is overpriced for sure + it's like chewing plastic + this is not real banh trang tron ! Staff is not flexible I wanted to add matcha powder in the fruit tea and was willing to pay extra but they didn't let me do that. They said it would not go well together. I did say it's ok just add it in, I did that before. But still, they said no. I did that all the time in other stores and that's how I like it. It will bring a very interesting aftertaste after all the intense sweetness of the fruit syrup. Im Asian bro!

They have really good selection of drinks. Their service could use some help. I asked the gentleman (young kid) what a pandan waffle was and he looked at me like I had a 2nd head and swear he was thinking duuuhh idiot... but said it's a waffle. Like really!?! So I said well what kind of waffle? Sweet? Savory? He's like it has some kinda spices in it. Well based on that rave description I decided to go with the eggs rolls. Well wish went with my thing else. They were bland and heavily rolled w very little filling. The mango boba was alright but had to pay extra for extra sweet and wasn't sweet at all (so can only assume they didn't add any extra). They seem to charge extra for just about everything. My total for a large boba and eggs rolls was almost $13. Overall I might go back to give them another chance if I was in this area again. read more

I got to visit Tealicious for the first time yesterday! Their space is really cute and the staff was very friendly. Currently, you have the option of carry out, curbside or delivery. Bubble Tea is so fun and takes a little bit of an adventurous spirit. I am glad to see it growing in popularity in this area. I have heard amazing things about their fruit teas! I ordered the Thai tea with Boboa and Pudding. While I love this cute little place, I do have to be honest in saying the thai tea was not the best. It tasted quite watered down and was lacking the flavor punch I love so much. I would also change my order, slightly, by taking off the pudding and topping it with a custard cap. I can't wait to go back and try a different combination. The possibilities are exciting and endless! read more

Love this place! I've been there a couple times now. It's very similar to Kung Fu Tea, but locally owned. I actually found out about it when I was at work which is just a minute down the road. It's convenient for me to get to when I want something quick before work or on break. Also, the drinks are great and I love the little decorative flourishes it has. I have done my Bible studies there and the owner has offered to turn the music down for me to focus better. I've not taken him up on the offer, but it's nice to have an establishment that is willing to do the most to make a person comfortable and welcome. read more

The peanut dipping sauce added a creamy, slightly sweet contrast that paired nicely with the fresh ingredients. Overall, it was a comforting, flavorful meal that felt both fresh and filling. I would happily order the beef pho and shrimp spring rolls again.

First learned about this market on Netflix's Season 1, Episode 7 of David Chang's "Ugly Delicious"…read morefoodie show. This is the best, well stocked International Supermarket in Knoxville, TN. If you can't find it here, you have to import it yourself. Fresh meats, seafood, canned goods, fresh veggies, spices, sauces, serving dishes, frozen foods, sweets, bakery items, cookware, beverages, etc. My only con is it's sometimes it's wall to wall with customers (internationals and locals).

The kimchi fries are pretty good, and the corn dog is tasty as well, although it's a bit on the pricey side. My favorite banh mi is the charbroiled pork. It is very flavorful. I do wish the filling-to-bread ratio were a little higher, though. The interior is also decorated very cute and inviting. Most of the times I've visited there hasn't been much of a line, which makes the experience even better. Overall, it's a nice casual spot that I keep coming back to.

The marble mango slushie with rainbow jelly was very refreshing on a very hot July day. I try to reduce the sugar whenever I order so I asked for no sugar. The owner said I really needed more for this particular drink so I said 25%. Somehow she convinced me that I needed at least 50% sugar. The drink was good and I liked the swirl of (I'm guessing here) condensed milk? The place is very Instagrammable with cute decor.

I ordered a Marble Strawberry drink with strawberry popping boba jellies. They provide an order number and took about 5-10 min in the kitchen to bring the drink out and call our number. I will admit that this drink was not what I expected. I thought it would be a strawberry milk tea swirled with milk foam or whipped cream. Nope. It was like a frozen strawberry slushy. It tasted a bit like a (strawberry) creamsicle. My daughter drank the majority of this drink and loved it. I, personally, would not get it again, as I am partial to milk tea at boba shops. I may try their brown sugar or coffee varieties next time I stop in. Don't forget that they also serve savory Banh mi sandwiches. Friendly service and a nice spot to meet a friend. Great IG/selfie areas, if that's your thing, too!

I got the spicy tonkotsu ramen and the broth was amazing. Just the right amount of heat to provide a strong flavor, but not so much that you lose the taste of everything else. I got it with the pork and there was a ton! I also got a lychee green tea with lychee boba and it was one of the best I've had, ever. This was a delivery, so I can't comment on the ambiance, however, they gave a little hang tag so that it's easy to order again the next time. I'm not from here, but I would come back!

I wish them great success because they serve things that aren't easy to find every where, all day long, and at reduced pricing from other specialty restaurants.
