I had the Strawberry Matcha Latte which came with boba/tapioca pearls. The drink was good, the boba was a bit too soft for my liking but was not bad. They also have other bubble teas/fruit teas and Asian food (ramen/appetizers/desserts). I also liked the atmosphere/interior of the restaurant!

We (4 adults) stopped here for lunch on a Sunday. There was no waiting & staff went over menu options & questions. The staff were all super friendly and took great care of our table. The food was very good. I ordered Pad Thai and it was very good. We really enjoyed the food & atmosphere. If you are in the area and looking for good Southeast Asian / Thai dish then this is a great choice. Sanuk Mai khap

The best Thai/Asian Fusion in Raleigh! If you are looking for ramen, pho, hibachi or curry this is the place to go to! They have delightful Boba Tea also with many options.

Place is cozy, could be bigger cause it get crowded easily. Otherwise, its an amazing boba shop and the food are spectacular. I recommend you to try Ovaltine Lava, my favorite drink from my childhood.

One of the best ramen and boba places to go to! The employees were nice and friendly and the food and tea were delicious. I highly recommend the appetizers as well. The interior was also decorated well with cute wall designs. 🙂

I had the duck bun and Bowlba ramen. Both the starter and ramen was really good. The ramen was chewy and not mushy at all. They definitely did not use instant ramen type noodles. I also had a Taiwanese milk tea. It was not too sweet at all. Usually when I get boba tea at places like Kung Fu tea, I always ask for 30% or 50% sugar. This milk tea is what I expect from an Asian bakery in Phila, PA.

After hearing recommendations, we decided to try it out. We are so happy we did, and found ourselves wanting to come back before we even finished our meal! The service is friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. The only possible thing I could think of that bothered me was a loose, flickering light bulb above the cafe. I can’t wait to go back and wish them the best!

Decided to have a date night at the new noodle shop in the neighborhood Bowlba, and we really enjoyed the food.
