Mango Pomelo Sago
Jessica F.

The mango sago drink was so good and refreshing! The mango pieces inside the drink were a lovely addition. The boneless chicken was also delicious! Fried to a perfect crisp, the chicken was tender and juicy! The sauces come on the side so you can dip or pour the sauce over the chicken. They also provided us with plastic gloves to eat our chicken by hand, that was a fun experience. I did not expect a boba restaurant to have amazing fried chicken, so I will def be coming back again for it. The red bean egg puffs were good but I wish they had more red bean inside the puffs. Parking was fine on a Sunday evening, street/meter parking is free. There are a few tables inside but limited.

Tsaocaa is my go-to for bubble tea in Malden because they have great variety and quality flavors. The workers are super efficient and consistent. I didn't get it this time, but I really love their fries chicken too. The sauce isn't my favorite, but the chicken is tender, crispy, flavorful, and a great price for the amount. I ordered the purple sweet potato bubble milk, mango pomelo, and oolong milk tea. The purple sweet potato is my and my partner's favorites. It's the perfect ratio of potato paste to milk. Mango pomelo is another of my favorites, but I don't get it as often now because it's more expensive. Super refreshing and strong mango flavor. The oolong was also great

Staff was quickly working through a long line of customers. Unfortunately the bubble tea (Taro milk tea) was flavorless. Wish I could say I enjoyed my drink.

Excellent boba milk tea store (part of a chain) with milk and fruit tea beverages, slushies, smoothies, etc., and also food/snack options like egg waffles and what not. They have an amazing fruit tea that uses real fruit! Excellent service and convenient kiosk where you can order items. Cool ambiance and interior dining atmosphere as well - highly recommended if you are in Malden!

I usually come in the afternoon and off hours, so my review may be different than others who have had bad experiences with wait time. But their food and drinks have been on par. First, I'd suggest calling and ordering ahead for their fried chicken since it takes at least 20 minutes to make. I'd probably do that for anything off their food menu since because they do get backed up with drink orders. Average wait time for me for drinks has been 5-10 minutes, 15-20 minutes for food. This place is a hidden gem for fried chicken! I love their drumsticks which has one of the crispiest skins in town and it's just amazing with their sauces. I like their special spicy sauce and the soy garlic. As for drinks, my favorite is the grapefruit lime mojito with 50% sugar and less ice. It's so pretty and refreshing! Perfect with the fried chicken. I finally tried the mango grapefruit sago drink (50% less sugar and less ice) and loved it! It compares to the viral mango tea from Hey Tea (minus the hour wait). Also, their red bean egg waffles are interesting. Instead of tasting cakey, they tasted like tiny mochi balls. It was also not too sweet which was nice. Only thing was, can't really taste the red bean. Overall, good alternative tea place in Malden. They have much more variety on the menu than the other tea places.

A great hang out spot with drinks, wings, and other pastries. Must get the egg tarts!!

If you're a slushie boba fan then this is the place for you! They had so many smoothie drink options from guava, dragon fruit to lychee and even a durian mango one. The colors of the drinks were also really vibrant and pretty, and you can tell that they use real fruit since they have fresh fruits just sitting on the shelves on the side. You can order using their kiosk, and the drinks come out pretty fast. We also got one of the bubble waffles and it was pretty standard.

We ordered this as a mid-day pick me up. I ordered the Jasmine Green Milk tea which was really tasty. Good combo of milk and tea. The boba was good! We also ordered the fried chicken which we heard was really tasty and indeed it is. The chicken came with this amazing sweet and spicy dipping sauce. We ordered takeout via UberEats but would definitely be back. The interior was nice!

Food: - Purple Potato Milk Tea (30% sugar, oat milk): This was sooooo good. I had a sudden milk tea craving haha, so this definitely satisfied it. It was super refreshing, perfectly sweetened, and the sweet potato was so good as well. - Matcha Egg Waffle: I wanted to try an egg waffle because I saw the girl next to me eating one (and it looked GOOD lol), and it was SO satisfying! The dough was PERFECT, and I could definitely taste the matcha flavor. So yummy, it had been YEARS since I had an egg waffle as well. Service: Really fast for the tea, and also nice workers! Ambiance: Store is in a cute area of Malden with lots of other Asian/boba stores, there is seating inside, you can make yourself comfortable with friends. What a fun lil cheat day hehe.

This place is a good alternative or selection of all the other bubble tea places in Malden. There's a bunch of drink selection too! And there's a new mini claw machine they added which is nice.

What's for dinner tonight? Ronny's? No, we went to Jim's Market…read more I thought you wanted to try Ronny's? Yes, we did. We ordered and were very impressed by the calzone and look of the chicken. Feasting away, the kid stands up and spits up into the barrel? What's the matter? The chicken is wicked chewy. You know. Once in a while, you get a bad piece. Try another. Repeat. I have an idea. Let's call Jim's market. They never let you down. A 99? Yes. That sounds great. Let me call the restaurant and let them know that their fryer is under temp so that they don't make anybody else sick. Ring ring Hi, I'm calling to provide some feedback on a meal that we received. The chicken is undercooked. Well, I'm sorry, but you're gonna need to bring us the chicken back for us to look at. I'm simply calling for public service. You provide food to the public. Food that's undercooked and you want me to bring it back to you? You know what I will not waste my time.

My wife ordered the meatballs that are to die for and we also ordered 2 Large cheese pies. I challenge everyone who reads this to stop at Ronny's Place and tell me what you think. I travel from coast to coast and after eating pizza since the last time I was here....this is still the absolute best in the United States . The service is amazing and the people are like family. This place is small and just on a corner but I promise it is the best corner you'll ever want to hang out on.

Went for a second time and we stayed away from their aweful wings (from our 1st trip). This time we…read moreordered strictly dry tenders and they were good. They are really like mass produced tenders you buy in bulk at Costco, but they deep fry them on site and then toss them in the spices and flavors that you order. It's nothing compared to Dave's hot chicken, but it's cheap and hits the spot. This time we got the hot honey, lemon pepper and garlic parmesean flavor wings and fries. My fave was the hot honey, followed by garlic parm and then lemon pepper. All were good and tastes exactly how you'd imagine it would. No surprises, really. The fries, despite us dining in and consuming them right away - were barely warm, but somehow it preserved it's crisp. I wish they were warmer/hot...it would be sooo good. We probably got a stale batch. Note that their website offers more ordering options for the tenders. The combo I wanted was not listed in the store, but when I showed the guy what I wanted, he had no problems helping me with the combo I wanted at the listed price. This place has no trashcan outside so when you leave, you have to toss things over the into the trashcan inside the kitchen area on your way out. Pricing is reasonable and the front desk guy was friendly. I'd stay away from the wet flavors as it makes the food soggy, but that could just be personal preference. This place has to stay on their A-game as Dave's hot chicken and Canes Chicken is literally outside of this place.

It's Wingstop, at this point we should all know what we're getting. This is fast food not fine…read moredining. This location is my go-to and it does the job when I have a craving for tenders. Food tastes made to order and portions are good. They never mess up my order. No complaints.

Looking for a local Korean fried chicken place and I think we found it. The chicken was crunchy and…read morejuicy! Made to order so hot and not overly battered. But the way they dressed the wings with the sauce was excellent, every nook and cranny had sauce! We tried the galbi and it was sweet with a hint of smoke. I got the side of pickled radish because I love it! We tried the cheesling fries, wasn't sure I would care for my fries to be dusted with cheese but the were tasty! They came with a drizzle of their special sauce and a sprinkle of scallions. I would say it's like eating Cheeto fries! I actually liked them too. This is definitely a place to eat in or take out if you want done fried chicken!

I've only ever been on a weekday so it's usually kind of empty but they have a nice karaoke set up so I feel like it would be super fun on the weekends! The food is consistently good - we always get the spicy golden chicken and mix it up with a wildcard flavor! We also recently tried the skewers with sausage and grilled rice cakes and that was really good! They have a lot of specials here that I haven't seen at other places! Like if you spend over $50 or something then you can pay $1 for a slice of cake we were too full to get it but we def will try next time

Hanging out in Boston on business and it's #WingWednesday! So I did some research which lead me to…read morethe Shine Square Pub in Cambridge, MA which is a little east-northeast of Boston. Here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: It's a bit of a dive bar and there's nothing wrong with that at all. There's lots of seemingly random swag that covered the dark wooden/brick walls of the open floorplan style restaurant. There are lots of TVs and this place just gives off nice sports bar vibes! Service: Ron the bartender/owner himself was taking care of the entire restaurant so he was killing it! He still was quick, efficient, did things with a smile and still made time to chat! Food: I'm here for the wings and I was able to try out 4 flavors! There are 14 sauces to choose from, but I only had enough room for 4. Lol. First up were the Cinnamon Chipotle Dry Rub. They were a decent size, super juicy, crispy, cooked perfectly. The seasoning was a bit on the salty side and I didn't get a whole lot of cinnamon, but it was there to cut the sauce and give it a extra layer of flavor. Next up was the Honey Honey which had great sauce coverage. They gave me a bit of a grilled/caramelized feel. These had a good kick to them and the honey was blended in nicely. Next up were the Roasted Garlic & Aji! These had a more traditional flavor profile that reminded me of your favorite straight-up roasted chicken. Very class and very good. Lastly, was the hottest sauce on the menu, Chernobyl. These were a BRIGHT RED like a poison dart frog warning you not to eat it. Lol. It didn't smell too intimidating, but Ron did say it was a ghost pepper based wing. Upon tasting them, there was an immediate sensation of heat. Good, pepper-rich sweetness up front. These were very good, but not as spicy as I had predicted, which is totally okay! Value: You get 6 wings for $11.00. A little on the pricey side, but it's Boston, sort-of downtown, but it's okay! It's not bad at all and the food was totally worth it. I loved this place and I'm so happy I finally found a good wing spot here in the Cambridge area. I'll surely try some more flavors and other things from their menu!

A great place to watch a game and eat some grub. Lots of TVs, Boston spots memorabilia up, it's…read moredefinitely a dive bar but it's pretty spacious tbh since they didn't pack us all in like sardines, has quick bar service, and the food was good too. All around a great time!

But Live And Let Die was definitely Crazy Good Wings. I'll give them that. Anyway I exposed myself here, and I'm now barred from this place, and hiding from the cops. In other words I'm Banned/On The Run. This gas station features some pretty hostile employees but it does have a Brazilian burger and snack place in the corner (CGW) that is open late and you can't really ask for more than that from your average gas station so I can't hate it. Macia Lanches have an extremely Brazilian name because of the word Lanches and you better believe they have tons of great Brazilian stuff on the menu. X-tudo is their main seller but they have a lot of other stuff and I had the sausage dish which is known as Linguica, and I liked it a lot. It takes awhile for the food to come up and they were making fun of me for being so sexy but I still really like this place. Authentic Brazilian street food. *** The business it shares its space with is Macia Lanches: If you're feeling a little e-Macia-ted, and you have been skipping breakfasts, dinners, and even Lanches, then come here and get yourself some greasy Brazilian food. It's not expensive, it certainly won't set you back a Brazilian dollars. Cool late night greasy food spot which serves Burgers but not what you might be expecting. Since this part of Boston is so heavily Brazilian, that's what you get here. This is a Brazilian fast food, served hot and fresh until late. They specialize in the X-Tudo. And they have some pretty excellent Linguica (Portuguese/Brazilian greasy spicy sausage) as well served with Yucca (which won't make you say Yuck, er). Service can be mixed and can take quite a while, but they'll give you a number and you can hang out in the gas station or in your car until the number buzzes (like a vibe, you know, but don't use it for that or at least clean it after if you do, I call it a surprisegasm, the anticipation is the best part) and then your excellent greasy unhealthy snack will be all ready!

No restroom, if you stop here to eat you will be crossing your legs from the wait. A place to but…read morefood and drinks without a bathroom is ridiculous.
