Ordered a brown sugar milk for my kid and a plum green tea did myself! Of course, we ordered some popcorn chicken and squid balls as well! The service was fast and easy and order came out quickly considering they only had a few people working! The parking here is nice and easy to get in and out!

This is the best boba tea place ever and their teriyaki chicken is delicious. The sides they give are always random but always delicious. The popcorn chicken is incredible! And the spicy popcorn chicken is literally fire. Super recommend this place, it's my favorite.

The crispy chicken was very meh. There was very little flavor, and it was very oily and fatty. The meat had a strange rubbery feel. The matcha milk tea had little matcha flavor and the boba was mediocre.

So I first found this place about a year ago when we were traveling home to San Diego after a day at Disneyland and it was one of the few spots that we saw open that late when the boba/tea craving hit and I'm so happy we found it. That very first time I ordered a mango black tea because that's my usual go-to drink if I'm looking for something refreshing and theirs just hit the spot. Probably my favorite place to order a mango black tea. I remember that first time my bf at the time didn't want anything to drink but when I returned to the car and let him try mine, he immediately went back in to get a larger one for himself! Since then, we've stopped in close to a dozen times, usually on our way up to or way down from Disneyland, ordering the same mango black tea every single time. We'll continue to stop by as long as the quality remains the same and maybe one day we'll try a different drink! We recently started ordering the Taiwanese sausage as a snack and are really happy with that too! Parking is easy in this complex and there is plenty of seating outside for those with pups!

What the h is this? It's super oily and not crispy at all. So disgusting!!! If you can't even deep fried it the right way might as well close down your business... or at least check the food before sending it off to your customers.

A hidden gem and good spot for a quick lunch/take out. The name "Go Yummy" doesn't suggest that it's Chinese, but glad that I found it on Yelp when searching for lunch places in the 99 Ranch center. I got the pork stew meal - comes with a generous portion of pork belly with a tea egg (best part in my opinion), rice, and 3 veggie side dishes. Lunch hour also includes a free tea, which makes it a great deal! I got the iced black tea with pudding as topping and thought the pudding in it was delicious. I would also recommend the popcorn chicken, which was tender and juicy, but was no longer crispy when I brought the food home. Spicy wonton dish was also pretty tasty, but the portion was a bit small for the price.

We were in the area to grab dinner to-go and saw that the previously closed location for Tea Station reopened as Go Yummy. Boyfriend and I stopped in after ordering food and as we looked through the menu, we noticed striking similarities, lol. They basically rebranded themselves, but we recognized a lot of the same offerings. We ordered black milk tea with boba & pudding and a peach yogurt blended drink with boba. The boba that night was a bit firmer than we'd like, but not sure if that's the usual since we went in the evening. My peach yogurt tasted as expected. Boyfriend thought their milk tea wasn't exactly the same as Tea Station, but he didn't hate it either. It was passable for his standards. They do offer some indoor seating with about 3-4 tables, but there more tables outside in the common area. They have food, other beverages and desserts (shave ice). Price seems a bit pricey if you add toppings, but the drinks themselves run about $4 - $5.

This place is consistantly yummy, huge selection of boba drinks and quality teas. And the food is not to be missed. I have been going here for over a decade and now its my daughters favorite place. Love the staff. Lily and Rebecca are awesome :)

It was a very good. I got the pork stew, popcorn chicken, sasuage fried rice, cold royal milk tea and hot milk tea (earl grey). The pork stew is very tender and flavorful. Popcorn chicken was crispy and not dry. The teas were so good and not overly sweet. I'd come back for everything.
Checked this place out yesterday off of Van D.'s review - and it being the only place open late on a Saturday night in Irvine. The dining room is open, but wasn't well-lit, but that's fine because there is a spacious outdoor dining setup right outside the cafe. I ordered the Barley Milk Tea and Port Stew with Rice meal. The Barley Milk Tea tasted good - but what was missing was the barley! I know this isn't a drink that's as popular - but I remember when I had the iced Barley Milk Tea from Tapioca Express, and it had bits of barley in it. The BMT here at Go Yummy has the barley flavor, but it's missing the barley. I guess I'll try something else the next time I'm here. The Pork Stew with Rice definitely hit the spot - it reminds me of Trung Bo Kho - a Vietnamese dish that you can find at some of the family-style restaurants in Westminster. The pork cuts here were bite-sized, with a perfect balance of tender meat and pork belly. The whole hard boiled stewed egg was nice too. The gravy/sauce was great - and it's served with a bed of rice, a cup of soup, salad/corn, and some mashed potato looking thing. Portion sizes were generous and filling. While it wasn't anything fancy - it definitely serves as comfort food - traditional home-style type cooking. It was well-packaged and survived the trip home, despite a few bumps along the way. Crew is courteous and friendly. Shared parking lot in the busy 99 Ranch shopping plaza, but if you go towards the evening when most of the places here is closed - you'll have the parking lot practically to yourself. Minus one star for the Barley Milk Tea not actually having barley in it - but five stars for the home-cooked meals, great and fast service, as well as being one of the few cafes open late in the Irvine area.

I hoped that this place would be better after the rebrand to Go Yummy "instead of Tea station, which I didn't think highly of a few years back" - it wasn't. Same bad green milk tea with boba, not sure how your boba can taste old at lunchtime but... oh well. Poor service and low quality drink for the price. Don't recommend.
