I've eaten at this MomenTea location a handful of times now, and I really like that they have a small number of things that can be made vegan and gluten-free. The first time I got a tofu poke bowl with a nice variety vegetables in it and it was very tasty and filling. The second time I got a soup noodle bowl with veggies, which was good, but it didn't have much tofu in it so it wasn't as filling as I wanted it to be. Maybe I could have asked/paid to have extra tofu or something.
I've also gotten a couple different bubble teas from here, which are pretty decent. The tapioca has always been the right texture, and the drinks are overly not watered down like in some other places. I like that the ice level and sweetness can be adjusted and alternative non-dairy milks can be used (although the non-dairy milks are rather expensive to add ... a whole dollar ... on top of the price of adding boba).
The handful of times I've been there, the noise level is average - mostly the staff and other customers talking inside. But the last time I went, there were some girls who were probably high schoolers outright yelling as they were laughing with each other. I don't know how often it is like that, but it was rather off-putting and I couldn't relax until after they left and the inside was back down to average noise.
The staff for the most part is helpful. I've usually either ordered online or on their kiosks, but I once tried to ask which (if any) of their bubble teas had little or no caffeine. And the older guy who was working there told me that the bubble teas would have no caffeine if made with non-dairy creamer, which led me to believe he was confusing caffeine with lactose or something. One of the other ladies behind the counter was able to tell me which bubble teas didn't have caffeine so that I wouldn't have been kept up that night. I...

Read moreThis place was great! I have to say I was completely thrilled to find a reasonably priced pan-Asian casual dining location. I don't think I've been to a restaurant where I could get poke, ramen, real Szechuan food and dim sum in one place. Oh and I left out sushi which I had. One of my favorite rolls scallop. Okay it wasn't the freshest scallop roll mind you but I don't think most people would be able to taste that. The food was otherwise so delicious that I did thank the chefs. I ordered the Szechuan poached chicken which not many places in the city that I've been to serve. Not even the Szechuan spots, and it was delicious. A little light on the Szechuan peppercorns, my favorite spot to eat this particular dish also garnishes it with cilantro which is a bit of a risk because not everybody's crazy about cilantro. However, this spot doesn't do that which I think will ensure that more people really like it. I did. My favorite spot to eat poached spicy chicken is still my favorite but this is my second. I really appreciated that they made sure that there were no bones in it which my favorite spot does not. Anyway, I say all this to say This is a must stop in. Even though there are plenty of new dim sum places in the area which is awesome. Those spots are flashier when it comes to the design. This place was really exceptional. Not fancy but...
