Great place for a relaxing lunch or dinner. Ramen is phenomenal! I had a Peach Tea with popping Boba, and the Spicy Miso Pork Ramen. Great atmosphere, and all the tables had little sketch books on them! My service was great, the people were very friendly and good at communicating to me. I came in before closing and they informed me that the orders they were taking were just to-go at that time. To-go orders are packed efficiently and in leak-proof containers. Highly recommend as a cute lunch stop after exploring downtown or going through the aquarium!Went again just this weekend (March 17th) food is still amazing and the atmosphere is still so inviting. Had chicken miso ramen this time, with a Thai boba tea. SO GOOD ? have officially made it a must-stop when I come to Chattanooga.

I would give no star if I could. So disappointed with the food and staff. Ordered a poke bowl to go, the Asian cashier who takes my order was disrespectful and impatient. And when I come back to my office I found the rice is undercooked, ingredients are not fresh, tastes like overnight. Just throw it away, Can’t eat that horrible thing at all! Totally a waste of my money and time. Have to get back to work with an empty stomach. Your staff definitely needs to be trained or you’re losing customers！

Ordered spicy miso and some pineapple bubble tea. The best thing I can say about the miso is that the meat was good. Overall however the ingredients were of low/poor quality and the broth was not particularly good either. The broth tasted gritty and was way too salty (did they just use a flavor packet and water? Maybe a bit of soy sauce?). The corn seems to have been from frozen and the noodles tasted as if they’ve been previously freeze dried or otherwise reconstituted (more like top ramen than fresh ramen for certain). Egg was cold when I tried to bite into it. Ramen was warm not hot. (It was somewhat spicy however so win there I guess?)Sad because I wanted to try something diff here on this visit and compared to other eateries it was a huge let down.Stop in for bubble tea (that was good at least), maybe the poke bowls are better, otherwise my rating is to skip this spot.

Lovely little gem. We try to visit every few months! Small restaurant with delish foods and drinks. There's also some art pads on each table to doodle & draw while you wait! The place is small, so it's tough to maneuver a stroller, keep that in mind. We love this place!Vegetarian options: You have the option to create your dish with a abundance of ingredients.Kid-friendliness: It's a fun experience with you and your little ones.

So I'm currently living in Chattanooga as it is I'm a university student at nearby UTC. I had been looking for some very good Boba and Japanese cuisine. Thankfully, I did not have to go far to find that when I found Taichi bubble tea on Broad Street downtown. My sushi burritos and bubble tea were both amazing. Best I could ever ask for if you're looking for good bubble tea and Japanese cuisine in the Chattanooga area, This is the place you need to visit. I will definitely be back whenever possible thanks
This place would not be 4 stars in California but since its in Tennessee, Ill make it 4 stars because of the lack of places here that serve bubble tea. I searched up "boba" and this was one of the only 2 places here that served it. The ambiance was actually pretty nice with its wooden interior and cute decor. You place an order at the self serve kiosk which was convenient.I ordered a small/med green milk tea with boba and it came out to $5.90 before tip...talk about LA prices. The tea did not taste like tea at all, just sugar water. But the boba was surprisingly okay because it was sweet and chewy. But tbh i only ended up drinking 30% of my cup and discarded the rest of it.

Not sure if this was because it was door dashed, or what, but this was the worst ramen we’ve ever had. The veggies and other dry ingredients were almost inedible, and do they use spaghetti noodles?? Lol they didn’t seem like typical ramen noodles.

I brought my son in for a shared experience of poke and boba tea last night in celebration of his birthday. We arrived at 8:20, noticed that the workers were already nearing their closing time procedures, so we hurriedly penciled in our selections on our little menu ticket, deciding 'who' would get 'what'- so we'd get a great blend and variety of things we both loved, and decided which drink option we'd choose on reverse side of said ticket. He's a little more experienced with this whole process and all the intricacies,; I've only been here once, 4 years ago. I try to figure out which drink is closest to a brown sugar tiger drink,,, just to be sure, I asked the employee first before ordering. (My son had already chosen his mixture of 2 smoothie flavors on his ticket) They did confirm the "original" style would be what I wanted, I hand them our completed menu tickets, and pay for our to-go meals. The food came out very quickly, and while I did think the price seemed light for what we ordered, I really didn't think much of it since the buzzer was already ringing before I could barely sit down. I returned it to the far end of the bar, receiving our order bag in exchange. We planned to wait to enjoy our meal since he really couldn't wait to show me his favorite store downtown; Rocket Fizz- next door. We leave there right at their close time of 9 pm, and head back to the vehicle to eat (before I had to rush him home to get in bed for school) He was already digging into the bag and I hear a crestfallen exclamation, "where's my drink?" .... Oh my goshh it's not in there? I checked the receipt; only my drink had been rang up, and the smoothie he ordered definitely wasn't in the bag. The restaurant is now pitch black, deserted. Had I seen evidence or the presence of any individual, I would have spared no effort in finding a resolution to this regrettable scenario. However; a single person to be found behind those translucent glass windows.I don't know what protocol I needed to do to make sure that everything we marked on the paper as our order would be rung up and paid for and then also received by us; I suppose I really should've paid more attention and checked receipt much sooner than I did. It's not a huge deal, of course he rolled with the punches, but man, you know how bad I felt for not even getting him his special drink for his birthday. He didn't even eat the poke bowl, not sure if it was related to this I got him back to his dad's and kissed him goodnight feeling much like a failure ?. On a positive note my thaichi(?) was great as well as my poke bowl - I chose as many veggies as I could stand and the flavor was great, the fish was palatable and maybe next time I'll get it right for him too.?

Super cute place with really nice employees!! I got the brown sugar boba and it wasn’t as flavorful as I was expecting, but still good! I am lactose intolerant so it would have been nice if they had lactaid milk as an option, but they did have almond or soy milk available.

Love the ramen customizations and the fact they offer alternative milks unlike some of the other bubble tea locations. Adorably decorated. Has drawing books at most of the tables for you or your kid’s entertainment. Taro root smoothies less sugar extra thick light bubbles is the way to go! ?
