      Food: 4/10
      Atmosphere: takeout place
      Service: 7/10
      Tips:

      I Tea is known for bubble tea. Food, I don't recommend. They have a lot of variety (from Chinese, Korean, Thai, etc.) but they don't specialize in anything. The Korean fried chicken was soo crispy it actually was very dry.

      I had a veggie lunch special with shrimp and it did not taste good at all. I don't plan to order from here again. Try it at your own risk though.

      I've came here numerous times! Either walked and ate here, ordered delivery, or ordered pick-up. This spot has consistently been on point and is a neighborhood fav for an Asian fresh fix!

      My most recent drop in, I always get the bubble tea! I love their Thai tea with the black boba (and big straw)! Just enough sweetness and boba! I Tea is one of my favorite places to grab bubble tea while in the area! Also, ate the shrimp roll and cheese wontons that was also good.

      You can't go wrong with grabbing food and/or a bubble tea from I Tea. I would honestly say it's one of a kind!

      I always come here to get bubble tea and I'm never disappointed (unless they run out of regular bubbles) Sometimes I get the shrimp fried rice and sometimes it's great other times it's just okay. I don't normally dine in but they do have dine in options that seems pretty cozy. The staff is pleasant and also pretty efficient. I typically enjoy my experiences here

      A perfect lunch special for a hole in a wall restaurant. A gem on Spring Garden that has me excited to go back. The reasonable prices and diverse menu make this a must visit for another asian craving.

      I went with a work colleague at the SDOP and he has been a frequent customer. I was feeling the onset of a cold so I opted for something spicy . The Double Cook with Chicken is what I chose and it's spicy and fresh taste are the reason for this review. My colleague had the Curry Sauce that I will try next time.

      Additionally I had the wonton soup and was glad this, or a salad, were some of the options for the lunch special. Both were good tasting and I recommend this restaurant when you are nearby.

      I ordered the Pad Thai and a large Tai Chi drink. By far the worst meal I ever had. The Pad Thai did not have any bean sprouts and the sauce does not taste right at all. It was covered in this sweet chili sauce, which is better fitted for spring rolls. On top of that, it was not cooked correctly because there was puddle of sauce at the bottom of the plate making it very soupy.

      The Tai Chi drink is a mix of coffee and black tea, which I did not have a problem with. But, the bubbles were extremely overcooked and tasted mushy. The tea itself was very good, not too sweet and very well balanced.

      My friends ordered the fish ball noodle soup and beef noodle soup. The soups had no flavor and they had to put hot sauce in it to give it some kick.this is definitely a very affordable meal if you are in a pinch. I would not get it if you can make a quick trip to Chinatown, which is only 10 minutes away.

      It's our go to Chinese (and other Asian varieties) delivery store in the art museum area. I typically order beef Yaki udon or one of their spicy sichuan dishes.

      Itea is my go to when I'm looking for something quick and good. My go to is the shrimp with broccoli or shrimp fried rice. Ordering online or in person you are guaranteed to have you food before you blink your eyes.

      The bubble tea! Yum, the passion fruit slush is the best bubble tea I've ever had and I must say I'm completely addicted to it.

      The customer service is always great and pleasant. It I s easy to miss while walking on Spring Garden since the sign doesn't stand out. There are a few table tops to eat but it's a smaller dining area.
