My review is for Moba Tea catering and also Teaqueria. I've had the pleasure doing business with Frank pre-pandemic and so happy he's still in business! Working with him was easy breezy, as usual! He was very prompt in returning my email/phone call when I had a last minute catering inquiry (well within 24 hours but I think it was about 4 hours). It was smooth from quote to execution. His prices are more than reasonable for on-site full service catered boba teas. It's was like bringing his shop to us! His team were all very professional and pushed through almost 500 cups of teas fairly quickly. The employees were impressed that they didn't have to wait in line very long for their bobas and I received lots of positive feedback. Now that I know he's expanded his business, I will definitely keep him in mind for catered bobas aaaaand tacos or something snacky! Today, my friend and I had a chance to visit the storefront, Teaqueria. She ordered the passion fruit tea and customized it to be less sweet and added aloe and jellies. We were quite overwhelmed by the choices and customization options and glad Frank helped with recommendations. As for the the food, we decided to share so we could taste a few items. We ordered the small steak nachos, fish tacos, and chicken tacos. The portions were very generous and it totally filled us up. The servers were very prompt when we asked for our waters, hot sauces and utensils. Now digging into the food!! We were impressed that our chips (in our nachos) didn't get soggy underneath the toppings. We did strategically eat that first. . But even towards the end, the chips became malleable but not mush! The flavors were very good and we even added hot sauces to it. We asked to try every hot sauce flavor and they were all good! My favorite was the orange sauce and the habanero since I felt those two had the most balanced and complex flavors. Sorry, we forgot to take pics of the house made hot sauces bc we just went for it! If you're there, make sure you order the fish tacos. I'm a huge fan of non-fried /non battered fish. It's way better than other taquerias where they only batter and fry fish because that's how they hide and disguise bad fish. Here, the fish was seasoned nicely and had depth and flavor and NON fried! Wait, I already said that. My same comparison goes for the chicken tacos too! Usually shredded chicken is dry, hence the need for tons of sauce. But I found the chicken here was moist and flavorful. I hear taquitos are really good but they were sold out today. I must go back to try! Thanks Frank and team. We love supporting local and small businesses.

Boba meets Taquito= Teaqueria! Super cool little spot, with a nice vibe. Stopped here to celebrate my daughter's 30th b-day. She loves Boba Teas and Mexican so I knew this place would go over big for and my other daughter's, who all consider themselves to be foodies. It's a small place with BIG flavors. The restaurant is pretty small and parking is limited. Theres room to eatvoutside with space heaters. We ordered a flight of Boba and milk teas 4 flavors of each. We were able to try teas we had always wondered about and discovered some new favorites. Though they were all delicious. Mango milk tea, and the Thai Milk teas were two I had never tried before, but I will definitely buy more often. We had an assortment of Bobas as well. DELISH! We tried the Special BBQ Chicken & fried rice Burrito, which was super flavorful and hearty, along with Taquitos, and a crispy chicken Chimichanga that was loaded with flavor, and chips tasty salsa. The staff was SUPER friendly, and helpful, and a gentleman that seemed to be the owner or Mgr. was very hospitable and attentive. My daughter said the music seemed to be streamed straight off her music playlist, which earned points for mom...lol. Give this place a try! #Boba #tacos #burritos #milktea #SJ #friedrice #mexican

Really cool spot to hang out with friends! Got the Boba flight and this is a cool idea! Great way to sample flavors one would usually be reluctant to try. All the teas we had were great! Also had the Mango Mojito which was refreshing and tasted amazing. Food here was also really good. Quesadillas: Steak had great flavor and the salsa was good. A bit greasy but honestly worth it. Nachos: These did it for me, glad to see they used nacho cheese and it didn't taste super processed. Plate was packed with toppings, they didn't not skimp on meat one bit. Overall would come here again, the outdoor seating is great for coming with a group, and there are lots of options to try.

Just stopped by this taco place near SJC airport and tried three tacos along with some black tea. The menu offers a wide variety of bubble tea and milk tea options. While the tacos were good, they weren't exceptional—I believe there are better options in town. The restaurant has a slight Asian flavor, likely due to its Asian ownership, but the place was impeccably clean and the staff were friendly. They offer outdoor seating, which is a plus, but street parking is the only option as there isn't a nearby parking lot. Overall, a decent stop if you're in the area."

The food was great! Had the nachos. Love it when they use nacho cheese. I'm biased as I grew up with nacho cheese on my nachos at baseball games as a child. Flavor, tase was great! I had their Vietnamese coffee, which was delicious! Not too sweet, but sweet enough and kept me going for hours! Haha. The service was excellent as well, the owner checked up on us asking if there's anything we need and brought out the food and drinks himself which showed the extra 10% of care and service. Will go back again!
