Tealicious — Restaurant in New York

Was driving by late night and saw the huge purple signs and decided to stop by and see what’s up, turns out it’s a new boba spot over in Queens and they just opened up this weekend 04/14/2024 and it was their grand opening weekend

I went in with my cousin and we got the taro tea and the highly recommended Rose Tea with Lychee Jelly

Off the bat the staff were super helpful and helped me out with their recommendations and crowd favorites

And the establishment was very well designed and put together who ever the owner is did an amazing job on it and I’m glad to see a fresh store front on my block

Now the boba it self was fantastic the taro was super flavor and had a very deep taro flavor that u loved a lot and the boba was LOADED I loved it a lot and they had great chewy boba pearls

The rose tea was SUPER fragrant and had a very refreshing taste to it I felt very uplifted after drinking it honestly and the lychee jelly was just the perfect contrast of flavors to mix with this tea

And being in a Desi/South Indian based area of Queens they have some other great options as well like Mango Lassi and Falooda Drinks with boba

This Desi/East Asian mix of flavors is super unique

They also offered a variety of Crepes and Waffles however I was a bit too late to try that but I will DEFINITELY be back soon to get my sweet treat fix

If your a queens local or even visiting from outside the borough make sure you stop by there...

I ordered 2 things from this store; a medium brown sugar with tapioca and a Nutella crepe, the price coming up to almost $20. The bubble tea itself was alright but the boba itself was subpar. I understand that the crepe would take longer to make however, waiting for over 30 minutes was ridiculous. Additionally, after 30 minutes, the employee said “the machine must be broken because it wouldn’t reach a high enough temperature for the crepe to cook.” The employee offered to make a bubble waffle instead and having paid $20 and waited over 30 minutes, I took the offer. As they finished making it, I watched them grab the chocolate chips with their bare hands and spread it across the bubble waffle?? The bubble waffle itself was very sad as well, super soggy and flat. This was just a horrible experience for my first time and to anyone reading, you can find bubble tea for better quality elsewhere for LESS.

Edit to the business: Thank you for responding but I literally do not have a clue who you are comparing me to. I do sincerely you take feedback seriously and plan to improve as I saw this place many times on TikTok and Instagram only left to be disappointed...

So I ordered the Dubai waffle for the second time and this time they didn’t provide half of the toppings they’re supposed to. The first time I ordered the Dubai waffle it came with pistachio butter, whipped cream, and a scoop of chocolate ice cream- and for that I understand paying $15, which is $5 more than every other waffle/ crepe that they offer. However the second time I ordered it it it did not come with any pistachio butter, whipped cream, or ice cream but I’m still paying the same $15. So for $5 more than ever other waffle you can’t even give whipped cream that you put on every other waffle (look at the other reviews and pictures)? So over these...
