Came here for early dinner and got a set of 瓜子肉饭 which is just minced braised pork rice. There is indoor seating and food comes in takeaway boxes (makes for easy pack up if you don't finish). I loved that it came in a set with my favorite homey Chinese dish ever-tomato fried egg! Food was delicious and brings me back to simpler times. The service was also amazing! The 阿姨who helped me that day was so nice and sweet!

Their boba is decent! The popcorn chicken was good and well seasoned. I wish the seasoning was more mixed in with the chicken rather than having it all on top though. Sad to see that the location here is changing to a different one though! Will definitely miss it

Ten Ren's Tea Station brings consistently fragrant tea. It means business. We enjoyed the rose black milk tea and oolong milk tea with 50% sugar. So fragrant and tasty! The rose was extremely floral. Their boba was also cooked well and chewy. The paper straws are hopefully better for the environment, but don't let it sit in the drink for too long!

I have been coming to this restaurant every weekend since I was 3 years old. The regular wait staff from Stephanie in 2003 to Johanna who has been there for years and is still there now have all been incredibly nice and even bring out a free side dish of tea eggs every now and then. The food is absolutely delicious. My favorites are the house noodle with deli plate, wonton noodle soup, beef stew, pork stew, and zhajiangmian. I am half Taiwanese and frequently visit Taiwan, but since I grew up on their pork stew, I find it even better than some of the famous places in Taiwan. The tea is also always perfect. It's strong with tea and the boba is also perfectly chewy. Even the peach yogurt with boba is really tasty. I'm very sad to see that Tea Station does not have great reviews since I have always considered this my favorite restaurant. In the 18 years that I have been religiously coming here, I have never had a bad meal.

The flavors here are pretty good. That dragonfruit tea was so unique and good, but that almond milk tea was just bussin. I ordered it half sweet and was the PERFECT balance. The boba is also soft and chewy without tasting overcooked or undercooked like some cheaper places. They were also very friendly and helpful. Thanks!

I'm glad to see this place is still in business. I came here years ago with my friends. Sometimes the flavored teas are made wildly inconsistent with their level of sweetness. One bariata's 50% sugar level is another's 100%.

The chrysanthemum tea is very refreshing during the summer. They're very generous with their tapioca pearls but know that they're pretty sweet. So, I didn't even need to add any honey or sweetener to the tea.

This is the OG spot for MY FAVORITE boba/tea! Ordered the usual osmanthus milk tea with boba, unfortunately they didn't have the larger pearls however the smaller pearls were surprisingly pleasant! Love!! However I was definitely let down by the popcorn chicken. It tasted decent however if you're gonna charge $8+ dollars for it you should probably fill the box at least 70% full...the picture was I FIRST OPENED IT, honestly looks like it was half eaten already. It was flavorful however there were also small pieces of tendon that were quite annoying. Definitely would come back the drinks tho!!
Outstanding tea, comfortable surroundings, great for hangouts with family, introduced many to milk tea here. Also check out Ten Ren tea store, attached

My 3 favorite drinks to order: Rose milk tea with boba is the drink to order, if you're into floral teas. Their's is second to none and you will never be able to enjoy another cup at another shop because this is premium quality tea you're getting. This tea shop is on the expensive side but their drinks are well worth it. The large size should be called XL and puts half and half to shame. They also offer freshly made cheese foam. If you're into matcha, I highly recommend their Jasmine green milk tea with matcha cheese foam and boba. The pudding in their pudding milk tea is different and the best quality. It's out of this world. Their pudding milk tea with boba is the best of its kind. My favorite food items: Their sweet potato fries are crispy on the outside and has the mashed consistency inside. It also has this sweet and sour pink powder on top that makes it even more special. The sweet butter toast takes 10 minutes to make but it's so savory. I don't share mine. Sorry. Their spicy dumplings come piping hot and is very well priced. It's the best snack to have with the boba. Your welcome.

Unable to use gift card for those ordered before Sept 2020 due to bankruptcy proceedings. I ordered sausage and porkchop meals. -Sausages taste decent. -Porkchop has that "unpleasant taste of meat" -Side dishes that came with the meals look like they are from Kang Kang Food Court -Winter melon milk tea lacks taste of tea and winter melon. I can only taste the sugar.

I received a gift card to tea station from a relative about a year ago for Tea Station and have tried to redeem it at 2 different locations that said they no longer accept these gift cards and no one can provide answers on how I can get my money back. I've sent multiple emails, messaged on Facebook and Instagram with no answer over the past year. Why even provide contact information if you're not going to respond? Good to know this company is okay illegally withholding funds paid to them.

Miss the Tea Station in Garden.. I hope they reopen that location. It's been over a year since I had one of their Hazelnut Tea. ?
