When I asked it was because it's an additional $.50 because the tea is hot. My drink was delicious. It could've been a little bit hotter, but honestly, it was the right temperature so you could immediately drink it. Unfortunately, I was walking outside and it got cold halfway through my walk. There was a little bit of a language barrier with the cashier who was taking my order. I was trying to ask what was in their holiday drinks and I wasn't able to get a clear answer. There was a number of food model that were on the counter, not super appetizing.

While there might be a lot of boba/bubble tea/tapioca in the general LIC area, this is basically…read morethe bubble tea shop near the waterfront. There are some other restaurants nearby that will have boba on the menu but I consider that separate from a bubble tea shop whose main or only product is the tea. There is some minimal seating (bar stools) but it's largely a to-go place. The ambiance is clean lines, black walls, white tile etc. Patrons leave napkins/straw wrappers, things can be a bit sticky, and it doesn't seem like this is attended to all that quickly. And it's not like it's busy - every time I go in there it's empty of people. There are 2 self service kiosks to order at and thus you're not really greeted or acknowledged when you enter, which is mostly in line with the nyc norm. The tea itself I think is just okay. It is a bit pricey; everything will run you close to $8 before any substitutions or add-ins. They have some fun flavors like the raspberry hojicha. I do think that the standard bubble milk tea that they offer highlights that the tea itself isn't great quality - it's either oversteeped or just not great quality tea being used. Still, it's better than not having boba in the area.

I needed to warm-up my body from the extreme January, 2026 cold and decided to dine-in. Power Of One. It was utterly empty as I was the only patron in the house which there was no excuse to reluctantly serve me. There was one female worker who appeared very bored, head lowered doomscrolling on her phone, but idling and stationary waiting for customers to enter to serve. This female employee is operational readiness. Chicken Katsu Udon noodle soup $14.95 It was served fresh and piping hot with steam visibly emitted. It warmed my hands from the cold. Noodles were sufficient. I wished there were more noodles. The chicken was abundant and tasted just right. The broth was good. It contains half brown soft boiled egg of jammy yolk, paucity scallions, and fishcake. The brown half soft boiled egg was okay, but I prefer white eggs. It was served on a plastic canteen food tray with plastic utensils, wooden chopsticks and napkins. The interior has sufficient seating with tables and fends a canteen appearance rather than a café. There is no restroom facility on premise. Takeout menus are available for grabs. This noodle soup certainly eat my fill for lunch. It sustained my hunger pangs until dinner. There was no background music playing. Sometimes I like to sit in peace absorbing the quiet stillness to ponder and reflect. Pop Pot Noodle & Tea Spot is very accessible via MTA NYC Transit local J or Z trains at 75th Street Elderts Lane. Delivery is available via Uber Eats, Grubhub and DoorDash.

I never thought I'd be writing a review like this…read more While eating a bowl of ramen, I discovered a cockroach after I had already consumed approximately 35% of the meal. I immediately stopped eating and documented the incident with photos and video. To the restaurant's credit, I was given a refund. However, I was disappointed by how the situation was handled afterward. The interaction felt rushed, and I left feeling as though the seriousness of the issue was minimized rather than addressed. Finding a cockroach in food is not a minor mistake--it raises serious concerns about sanitation, food preparation, and pest control. Because of the nature of the incident, I submitted a complaint to the health department and provided documentation. I hope ownership takes this matter seriously and investigates how this could have happened. Until then, I cannot recommend dining here.

The strawberry part was more like a jam, so it was a little sweet for me, but overall a decent drink. I would have preferred crushed strawberries, though. Later, I came back for dinner at the tail end of the day. I was leaning towards the beef curry bowl because I like bolder flavors, but the karaage chicken is a hit here, so I ordered that in bowl form. First off, all the contents were very fresh! The chicken pieces were crisp and tasty. The burdock on the side had a smoky umami that was quite nice - it was the best of the 3 sides - and the spicy mayo was on point. Still, I think I would have gone with the curry given my taste buds, but overall the karaage bowl is a solid choice. Lastly, while the container looks small in circumference, it is taller than other takeout containers, so the portions are really about the same as any other restaurant. The nori fries were subtle in flavor but the nori still made its presence known. All in all it was a great experience. The owners are very nice, also. I will go back for the curry and yakiniku, too.

The karaage seems to be made fresh to order every time and it's the perfect balance of crisp, light, and moist little nuggets of fried chicken. You can't go wrong with any of the hand rolls or onigiri, either. I love the takana (mustard greens) onigiri and the spicy tuna and salmon avocado are my favorite from the hand rolls. The junior size of the bowl is the perfect snack-sized portion of food. The grilled unagi and the salmon ikura junior bowls are my favorite. I haven't tried the sandwiches yet, but I will be sure to! The service at Hi Node is so friendly. The staff greets everyone and they are so warm and welcoming. There's not a ton of indoor seating, but I've always managed to get a seat to either enjoy my food there or to wait while it's prepared and take it to go. So excited to add Hi Node to my regular rotation of Ridgewood restaurants!
