Tsaocaa Tea & BBQ Chicken — Restaurant in New York

Nice new place. They have Korean style fried chicken (menu is from...bbq chicken... 😶) and bubble tea. The chicken was good; they were crunchy and the meat was quite juicy. Just mentioning... one chili pepper🌶 level spicy is not spicy 😅 lol, so if you want spicy... maybe try the one with more 🌶🌶. Also, there were some disposable gloves available at the front, so you dont have to worry about getting your hands dirty with the chicken 👍. The bubble tea was ok. I got the fragrans oolong milk tea (comes with bubbles)...didnt really taste much of the fragrans tho... but still ok. I feel like I liked the regular tea that my friend got, compared to mine...🙃. The medium/small was around the size of a soda can while a large was taller. Overall, the place was a little crowded when I went there around 4-5 PM but it cleared out around 5:30PM, so it's a ok place to chill and chat...

I had a past issue with that the uber eats menu was flawed (basically couldn’t order a 10 pc only 20 unlike in store)

But after I pointed that out in the review it was fixed so im updating the review 😊 Really appreciate that they fixed it once it was pointed out

My only critique is that the tteokbokki is very watery and doesn’t have much flavor. Just a heads up its quite soupy if ur looking for a traditional tteokbokki this would not be it. Cup tteokbokki is better i hate to say 😭il still get it cause i love rice cakes but yeah just an fyi u will maybe be disappointed

other than that the bubble tea is good and the chicken is great...

Really had high expectations for this place when i read the reviews. If you grew up in Asia, walking in this little boba shop (or just around this neighborhood), you wouldn’t know you’re in the States! Super authentic top to bottom like we have one of these in vietnam lol. The Gangnam chicken was very crispy and delish. Didn’t really like the tteokbokki tho because the seasoning was a bit bland for me (i like spicy food so this might not be the same for everyone). Bubble tea (i got Brown sugar black tea i think?) was also good, worth a try but i’d suggest the brown...
