Jade Tree Asian Bistro

I came back recently to MoCha inside Jade Tree Asian Bistro. I ordered on the spot and waited about 10 to 15 minutes for the order to be ready. I had the matcha boba bun, the green tea mille crêpe cake, and the mango mille crêpe cake.

The matcha boba bun comes in an order of 2 for $6.95. The bun had matcha and boba in it. It was hot and fresh. It had a good taste but didn't really taste like matcha and the boba consistency is what you would expect. The green tea mille crêpe and the mango mille crêpe cake were $6.25 each. The flavors were good, but it was extremely small. I was shocked at the price and the size of the crêpe cake. It was like 1/4 of a normal slice of a cake.

Ordered a secret bag @toogoodtogo for $6 picked up my order after work. Didn't realize the restaurant was located in the heart of Federal Hill - Providence amongst other great eateries, but parking is a challenge even for a quick pickup. The inside of the restaurant is very clean and a bit sleek and at the same time homely. Staff were friendly enough. Next time I do want to take the time to sit and eat or order a nice take out - the to go bags are very cool looking. Got home with my surprise order. Miso soup, delicious and healthy. A nice serving of Beef and Broccoli and a heavy hand of pork fried rice. Enough for two!

This review is solely for their food. I never been to the restaurant in person, but I went to an event ordered their food. The food was so popular and was gone super fast. Some people went back to get more. I really enjoyed the food, the beef was tender and very flavorful. I also loved the noodles. I should try the restaurant in person some day.

Pros:
- Great location - right on Atwells Avenue
- Kind & helpful service
- Gluten-free soy sauce available by request
- Delicious milk tea

Cons:
- Soupy sushi*

*So much sauce! I got the Lucky Roll - spicy tuna, mango, tobiko, & spicy mayo. There was a conglomeration of goop on the top - an overly sweet mango puree & very mayo-y spicy mayo. The mango puree wasn't necessary, as there was fresh mango in the roll. The spicy mayo had no kick. The result was a sweet, fruity, mayo mush.

I'll go back & try something else next time.

This review is just for their boba/tea drinks, as we didn't try any of their food offerings. The menu was quite extensive and it seemed like they had tons of drink and dessert options, especially.

The mango tea was absolutely delicious. So refreshing on a hot day! Go for the mango popping bubbles, they are generous with their portion. Just note the bubbles tend to stick to the bottom of the cup if you don't slurp them up with the tea. The Tokyo Snow drink was also excellent, the perfect sweet to creamy ratio. There was once again a ton of the aloe and lychee toppings in there. I recommend for tea!

I am obsessed with this place. They have the best boba drinks. I have been way too many times in the last couple of months since I found it.

I went in person for the first time and it's a cute place! They have you order through a machine in the front which was kind of cool. They also have so many food options, it's actually wild!

From ordering my drink and them making it, it maybe took 5 minutes in total.

Tons of items for choose from on the menu. I have enjoyed many different sushi rolls here. The matcha milk tea is delicious as well (:

Amazing food! Packaged well and will definitely order from here again! The service was super fast too!

I have ordered from here several times and each time it gets a little worse. For starters the delivery guy left my food out on the side walk in front of my buildings door where people like to urinate instead of waiting the 45 seconds it takes for me to get to the door. I get back upstairs and I open the food. Dumplings are burnt and soggy, chicken was ok but was more brown meat than white and menu specified white meat, and the moo shu was so over cooked and salty it was inedible. The two stars are for the fruit tea which was pretty tasty.

Not the best sushi at all. There was a piece on hair in the sushi rice and the sushi was not thawed out all the way and the rice was low quality.
