This place used to be okay, albeit overpriced, but a recent visit turned me off completely. The dining room was filthy! We went on a late Saturday afternoon. The place was near empty and the staff were just sitting around chatting. It’s not like a big party just left and they didn’t have time to clean up, but it sure looked that way. We saw “bubbles” on the floor when we walked in and they were still there when we left. Their tired fusion food also dropped a few notches from its previous passing grade. The bubble tea, around which they built their business, is probably the worst item on the menu. Avoid it at all cost, and certainly at the ridiculous price they are asking! I know this is not Chinatown, but how hard can it be to make a decent bubble tea? By the way, there’s no “best bubble tea” in Chinatown because they are all good. It’s not easy to mess up a bubble tea. Let’s face it, as long as a restaurant has a gimmick, wealthy Penn students and visiting parents (especially those from a non-urban background) will eat it up, and the restaurant can count on a new batch of customers every year to sustain the business. But the dining scene in University City is getting more interesting now, and students can check online reviews even when they are already walking down the Sansom Street restaurant block. I hope they find this review and keep walking.

Waited 10 minutes for waitress to acknowledge; then left after another 35 minutes when the food did not arrive. They could not make tea because they had NO HOT WATER and this is a TEA HOUSE. I wonder how this place stays in business especially with some of the other restaurants on the block. The food court behind this joint was better and faster.

Been here twice: Food isnt good. Bubble tea is ok get one with multiple fruits. The manager/employee tried to get my # -_- and kept annoying/hitting on me. The female waitress was an a$$. At night tons of random a.a. folk showed up and music was cranked up soooo high i couldnt hear myself think. Not even good music. The place is falling apart. I drank the tea and we left.
