Reviews for Twinkle in Houston, TX
I think they recently changed ownership or management because this whole boba shop looks entirely different with the setup and... decor. This place is much more hygienic now with glass shields and a fancy espresso maker. I always come here for the spicychicken nuggets ????This is the best place in town to get Taiwanese popcorn chicken, the quality of the chicken served is betterthan other places and I love the spicy dry seasoning I can add on top. I am impressed with the attention to detail and level ofcustomer service here. I asked for a cup of ice water and the girl with the long ponytail and the boy with the hat made me anice water in 30 seconds and even sealed it! That was so thoughtful of them.\n\nThe girl with the glasses and ponytail has thebest work ethic I\'ve seen at any boba shop. I ordered a Hong Kong MT and she graciously poured 2 cups of condensed milk into mytea to make a delicious smooth concoction. Read more
I?ve been here from time to time, but to be honest, half of my visits always got hard not fresh boba( like been frozen... overnight)\nThat being said, fresh brewed tea is really tasty. Read more
I ordered the passion fruit yogurt. It was very cool how I got to choose my own combination of sinkers, but the drink it self... was very watery and I couldn?t really taste the yogurt. The boba was hard like it had been on ice for too long. I will not bereturning. Read more
The employee was really friendly and helpful, super nice and patient. I got a basic milk tea and it\'s amazing and sure sweet.... Compared to tea houses milk tea this one is a little more sweeter. I also like that you can add your own floaters like boba andsuch. Another tint little thing I like is the variety in straw colors and that I can pick my own color. Read more
The tall lady with glasses attitude is so bad. The way she serves the customer just like Customer go there for getting free... drink or like the shop owner forced her to come to work. I give 5 stars with the drink. If they don?t have a good tea, I won?tgo there again. Poor service! Read more
This place had become my favorite tea house! They may be the only place that I know who use real tea leaves for their tea.... Unlike some other places, they use powder. Also, their toppingS is FREE! You get to choose and put in what topping do you wantinto the cup without any extra charge. (Reasonable amt of course)\n\nTheir food are excellent in variety, taste, and quantity!For example, I have never seen that much of ??? (popcorn chicken nuggets) for one order. The last time I saw that amount was inmy home country, Taiwan....\n\nBy the way, the owner is super nice too. She always remembers what I like and make the bestsuggestions when I want to try something new. Highly recommended! Read more
This is my favorite milk tea place in town. My boyfriend always sticks with his HK milk tea (which is so rich and full of tea... and condensed milk flavor) but I tend to try something new everytime I come here. So far, the lavender milk tea is my favorite.The prices are fantastic for such large portions, you pick your own add ins (my favorite being the baby boba), and you pick yourlevel of sweetness. The girls are adorable and always friendly and their wall of notes is cute. The place is tiny so we usuallyjust grab our tea and run, and we have yet to try their snack options so I can\'t comment on that. Read more
Love the place. They let you pick and put your own topping !
