This was my go-to restaurant in college. All of the food is amazing and so is the bubble tea. The owner, Fannie, is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Whenever I am visiting home, I make a point to come here.

They aren’t messing around when they say they have the best crab rangoons. You will not go wrong with anything on the menu!

Great food! Not greasy, great flavor. A great addition to Ames!

I can confidently say that the black pepper pork udon dish is by far the best dish I've consumed, ever. The service is immaculate. The bubble tea is superb. 10/10 is an understatement.

The best bubble tea we've ever had! I recommend the signature milk tea pearl or the Thai tea ice cream drinks

Fast service, good tea. Finding parking can be kind of a pain, much better if you're walking from campus.

This place is incredible! I love their tea especially their taro root milk tea! It satisfies my sweet tooth and their popcorn chicken is actually probably one of my personal favorite foods. They are fast and the result is amazing. I even got myself one of their sweatshirts:)

The BEST Asian style food in Ames. The black pepper udon noodles, kung pao chicken, crab rangoons, and bubble tea are my favorite menu items. The owner and staff are always so patient, helpful and polite as well. :) We are so glad we found 1+1!

What a wonderful place! Owner and workers are so friendly. Great selection of bubble tea and Taiwanese foods. It is very small inside, but I would suggest ordering take out if you have a party larger than 4. There are a few tables and high top seating. Lots of bubble tea options and toppings, plus they have egg pudding as topping. Ordered salt and pepper squid - crispy and flavorful lots of peppercorns and garlic pieces Taiwanese popcorn chicken - crispy and juicy -- make sure you order some. Beef chow fun dry - very good and tasty!!

We found this place by taking a wrong turn and it was the best mistake of our whole trip. What a find! My girls love bubble tea and it isn't always easy to find so we decided to go in for drinks and a snack. We all got bubble teas and a variety of apps and food to share. We were blown away by the food. Beyond beyond what we were expecting. The wings looked Spicy but were sweet and sticky and savory with some kind of crunch garlic on top for bursts of flavor and texture. My 9 year old who is the pickiest eater ever demolished them. The Taiwan popcorn chicken was another head trip. It was crunchy but not in the way it looked. Somehow crunch and soft at the same time. And it had no sauce but somehow it had amazing flavors of lemongrass and ginger. Have you ever had fried chicken that is refreshing? It was a mind trip. The experience was great. The counter guy was helpful and everything was made fresh on the spot. My daughters have already asked if we can go back again before we leave town.

Very happy to have a nice bubble tea place in Ames. They have the iconic TW popcorn chicken available, and make it quite well. Atmosphere is nice, tea is nice - hard to find faults.Also, while they do have a pretty big conventional food menu, the place is very small - so keep that in mind if you want to sit down to eat.

I love the vibes at this place. They always compliment me and make me feel welcome so I had to leave a review. The boba pearl quality is the best I’ve had in Ames and their teas aren’t two sweet. Great service, vibes, and boba, it couldn’t get better.
