Great tasting tea thats much more affordable than any place nearby. Staff is super friendly and always a great experience.
The best bubble tea in Austin, and the most variety of flavors. I would come here everyday if it was closer!
Cute, cozy little spot! Milk tea hits the spot, love the wide variety of options available, and the rice + crispy pork was delicious! I do wish the pork was seasoned more, though. I think the seasoning is basically the spice level I asked for, so I wish I asked for more. The spices they used in the spice level is delicious, so next time I'm going for spice level 5 (nope, not that spicy. Go for it). Overall, great place, most definitely returning
I ordered the mango slush with boba, no sugar. It was delicious! Mango had the right amount of sweetness already and boba was great! Fast and very friendly service. Thank you.
Been coming here with my boyfriend for over 2 years we really enjoy it here! Food is 10/10 everything is always made hot and fresh the chicken chow mein and spicy shrimp are our favorite. The owners are really friendly as well the place looks beautiful love how it’s decorated!
The servers here are super nice! They know my order + have even made modifications to the smoothie drinks to make them vegan friendly for me :) the meal combos are a great deal... I especially recommend the crispy tofu or the tofu lo mein for vegans out there! In terms of boba, the fruit teas are all great... guava is not on the menu but when they have it, it's delicious!
I would recommend getting a sample of the tapioca boba before you get it, otherwise this place is really good! They make your drinks fast and they're always yummy. Don't forget to tip the person you order with!
Big variety of options while being affordable. They give a big serving of boba! The lady who took my order and made my drink was so sweet. Super cute inside and a great place to hang out with friends.
Passion fruit Jasmine tea with mango boba, my go-to comfort drink, and they did not disappoint! Fast & friendly service, cozy dining area. Also grabbed crispy chicken appetizer, with a little spice, and it was superb. 👌 👍 Parking is not easy, but the food & servcie make up for that easily. Prices are very reasonable, portions are more than you'd expect.
First time eating here and ended up getting 2 meals and 2 milk teas- I will say some of the best noodle dishes I've ever had and the food was very fresh- husband and wife making all orders fresh to order with passion.
Good prices on the food and a good attitude and restaurant very clean and inviting
New ownership + tasty snacks! The chicken bites were okay, but the tofu, dumplings, and carrots (surprising right) were solid.
The combos are okay, but I’ll be back for more fried snacks!
Friendly staff, great and clean atmosphere,food taste amazing.
There are a bunch of places on the drag that serve boba tea, but Tapioca House is my favorite by far! The boba tastes the best here (just a little sweet!), and the owner and front house staff are super friendly. My friend and I tried the beef lo mein and the shrimp lo mein and were impressed! The portions were very generous and the food was very fresh tasting.
My absolute favorite boba place in austin! The cutest merchandise for sale too! I get the blueberry milk tea with boba. It is so wonderful!
Long waits only because it's a popular spot of college students. Other than that, the staff are super friendly. Drinks are delicious and the atmosphere is welcoming. Tapioca with almond milk is so good!

So compared to the other Asian restaurants around here, the prices are noticeably lower here. What you get for what you pay is reasonable. I ordered a $6.95 pork chop combo. You get rice, sprouts, string beans, and an egg on the side. You also get free black tea with boba. You also get a stamp card that gets you a free drink after the 10th order with beverage. I think the free drink and stamp card are the selling points of this place.
However, here's my complaints. The quantity is a little lacking. It's reasonable for the price but you should consider ordering more if you're really hungry. Also, this one is major. The quality of the food isn't great. Couldn't even finish the rice. Rice is mushy and not cooked well (maybe it's old?). Pork chop is not as crispy as you'd expect it to be.
I can see why many people would come to this place though. It's actually more reasonably priced then nanny of the places around here. I just wish they would focus a bit more on the small details. My suggestions: make sure the place is clean and upgrade your rice quality. I will still come back to try other dishes. --3.75 stars

Sept. '22: Cute decor/ plants & paintings.
I'd *love* to see brown rice on offer; that's probably a fantasy, but I do think the Styrofoam cups & containers should go!
All that said- glad to see the place operational & busy. The staff seemed to be on top of things. 👌
April '22 UPDATE: Glad food is on offer after some period of time with no cook! I don't mind the tweaks to the side dishes & style of items (I got a #6 crispy chicken steak combo) and the price increase is most understandable (portions may be even larger). The place has also continued to be cleaner than in the past; BUT
a] they've gone back to Styrofoam containers and that's both environmentally unfriendly and inconvenient (breaks/ spills easily during transport)--I disapprove; and
b] while there are several sauces & whatnot available, I missed having white vinegar and most importantly, the yummy aka magical chili flake/ garlic?/ peanut/ oil paste from the past!
^^If some of this could be resolved, I'd gladly tack a 5th star back on. :}

Spring '21 UPDATE: THANK YOU for having sealable/sturdier, recyclable containers now instead of Styrofoam!! Truly appreciated. Glad the business is surviving.

Old review- way pre covid:
It's campus adjacent and sort of a hole in the wall but the variety of bubble tea (drink) options and freshness/ perfectly cooked quality of the tapioca itself are appreciated. Best in town. I keep coming even though I'm no longer studying or walking across the street. Plus, my mom is hooked.
Also, the food is v good; I usually get a meal combo that comes with a jasmine green tea. 150 is my fave. And the green onion pancakes and red pepper peanut magic sauce are each great -- not -always- available but there are back-up options. :)
Literally tried to take a picture of it all together all pretty and cute but the flavor was so intense , and freshly flavorful, that I could not resist. THIS place is amazing the staff all lovely and sweet !! Helped me pick the best flavor, and even gave me a complimentary side order!’ Will b backk😍😍
Great for catering. So awesome with everything in here. I love it so much <3
I didn’t appreciate the additional charge just to take out the ice, but overall a great product and service and atmosphere.
