My sister loves this place and always drags me here whenever she has the chance. Because of this, I too have become a big fan of this place. First of all, I really like how you can customize your drink in terms of how much sugar, milk, and ice you want. I also like how their tea isn’t made from powder, but the real deal unlike some other places. Knowing that they are staying true to traditional tea makes me respect this place a lot. Their Black Milk Tea is our favorite. We don’t have to change the amount of sugar or milk because we know it’ll be good either way. If you’re looking for a safe pick, try their Milk Tea. Unfortunately, every time we come here, there is always a line at the door and barely any empty parking spaces. Kung Fu Tea is often crowded, so don’t be surprised if all their seats are taken. It would be a nice place to hangout with your friends if it weren’t so busy. However, that does not negate the fact that their drinks are superb. Plus, I can’t blame them for being near popular places like Raku and Curry Zen. In conclusion, you can’t go wrong here. The tea is fresh and awesome! I never really had high expectations for tea places but Kung Fu Tea exceeds my nonexistent standards.

Came here with the suggestion of my boyfriend, and definitely agree to it being really good. I ordered the mango slush(a Vegas favorite) and he ordered a white gourd milk tea. My slush was the perfect answer to a hot day. The ratio of ice and mango was perfect. It’s a small store in the middle of the plaza, and by the time we left there people out the door. A definite place if you like boba Check in to get free topping!

Solid milk tea/boba spot with friendly and prompt service. Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon in the midst of an excessive heat warning day with the fam. I don’t go for cold drinks no matter the weather and I was really craving a jasmine latte, but didn’t want to hike out to my usual spot across town. We agreed on trying these guys out based on many reviews. Family grabbed strawberry and pineapple slushes with boba and I got jasmine green tea milk, no boba. They liked theirs a lot and mine was pretty good, maybe not indulgent, but still quite tasty. The place was packed and really warm. Not their fault with people coming in and out in troves from the heat, but I felt bad for employees :/ Still, girl behind the counter was really polite and smiling and didn’t miss a beat. She was very patient with a lady ahead of us that had a ton of questions and needed lots of explanations. Hope she gets a share of tips, she definitely deserves it!

I came in with some high expectations of this place because it was in an article of top 10 boba places in America and because it is originally from New York. I tried what seems to be the most popular drink, the White Gourd Green Milk Tea with Boba, and I was actually a bit disappointed. Maybe it’s because I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley area where there are hundreds of boba shops so I’m a lot pickier with my boba, but the White Gourd Green Milk Tea literally tastes like green milk tea. Its consistency was a bit thicker than other types of milk teas so they might’ve added heavy cream. The boba was soft and chewy, but like I said, I’ve had better boba places in 626. As for the shop itself, the ambience was nice. It gave a playful vibe and I can see why young adults in the Las Vegas area would hang out here.

As an update to my other review about a half a year ago, I still like their teas, but I guess so does the majority of Las Vegas. This place is always poppin’. So many people. which means lines out the door. which results in a long wait just for a cup of milk tea. Considering how long the wait is, I would prefer to go elsewhere without such a long line all the time. Yes, they are still just as accommodating with your drinks, but it’s just too busy and long a wait for me. I would not write them off though. Would definitely grab drinks here when it’s not peak hours(which seems like all the time).

KUNGFUTEA! The best! Recently went on vacation to New York City, when or train came to haunt and had to get off to reroute our trip cause of weekend construction we stumbled upon a Kung Fu Tea. We stopped and grabbed some boba tea and were instantly hooked! I’m a green tea fan so I got the Very Berry Green Tea and was hooked(it’s strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, and blackberries all shook up with green tea). During our trip in NYC we kept coming across them and stopped each time to grab a drink. When arriving back in Las Vegas a friend tagged themselves at Kung Fu Tea in Las Vegas… I was like WHAAAAT??? A few days before I was telling my girlfriend I wish we had Kung Fu Tea in Vegas(I kept forgetting to look to see if we had one here)… So after seeing this photo we automatically planned our day around stopping at KFT. We just got here and I got my Very Berry Green Tea and am very happy! I got one without ice to take home. KFT has tons of options for drinks, we came with a few friends and tried quite a few drinks tonight. I must say they have the best tea and selection that I’ve come across at a tea spot, their boba tastes a little sweeter to me than other places which is awesome(not too sweet just seems like there’s a touch of honey or something). Come and try this place if you love boba/bubble tea(and even if you don’t. It’s that good!) this place is awesome with a great selection. Kung Fu Tea is the spot to go for your bubbles and tea!

I always seem to order the same thing at boba tea places — milk green tea(or matcha) with herbal jelly. The version here at Kung Fu Tea is pretty decent. 4 stars just for their herbal jelly alone. However, I felt like their teas could use, well, more tea? Or at least less milk so that the earthy flavor of green tea/matcha could come through. The space is small and cute. I wouldn’t ever expect to sit down and sip tea here, as the tables are always full of people playing card games or chit-chatting. The waiting area is small too so there’s usually a line out the door or gang of people waiting outside during their busy periods. Here’s hoping that their other soon-to-be-opened location near Rainbow/Warm Springs has more room.

I really wish the drinks were a bit more consistent here. I haven’t been back in 2 months and was craving their white gourd tea so I stopped by. I ordered my usual, white gourd milk tea with less milk, less sugar and boba. I also ordered one for my friend with no ice and no boba. Service was good as usual but when I received my drinks I saw that both had no ice and both had boba. I asked them to remake it which they did. I didn’t taste it until I left the parking lot and it was the worst milk tea I’ve had from Kung Fu Tea! It tasted like watered down milk and sugar, the boba was chewy(a little on the hard side) but missing that sweet flavor. I was so disappointed. My friend hasn’t drank her tea yet, but I hope it’s a lot better than mine!!! I thought I found the perfect combo for the white gourd milk tea but it really depends on who makes the drink d make sure you try it before you leave… You might get some watered down milk like I did.

To me it’s not a typical Asian tea and juice spot that I’m used to in the SF Bay Area. Here, workers are a diverse bunch, of both genders, and likely college students. There’s a TV that plays clips of martial arts action scenes from movies. That alone gave it an extra star. The taro milk tea and hot ginger milk tea were good. Friends seemed to like this place as we went out of the way to go here on our Vegas visit. We got drinks to-go but there were a few wooden tables for twos and fours, with a mixture of visitors and locals. On my visits, the line was out the door. Well, that’s all relative since from the cash register to the front door allows for maybe 4 – 5 people at most when stood in a single line.

While waiting for ramen, my boyfriend and I saw this boba shop next door and decided to try it out! Cute setting, welcoming and friendly staff. They have a lot of drink choices their menu inside the store was very helpful by putting symbols on their favorites/populars. They seem to be base with oolong tea. So I got the oreo oolong milk tea with boba. The girl told me even before I tried it that if I wasn’t satisfied they will remake. Now that’s awesome customer service. But they didn’t need to my drink was sooooo good! Boba was meh, so I probably wouldn’t get toppings next time.

To be honest, I’ve never been a fan of boba. Most places don’t know how to properly cook it, so it’s usually too mushy. When Jeannie C. and Dru C. started raving about this place, I had to check it out myself. First time I came here, the line was out the door. I guess that’s usually a good sign. When you check in on Unilocal,you get a free ‘topping’. It’s one check in per person, so make sure your friends check in too if they want a free topping. I decided to get my usual, green milk tea with BOBA(since it was free). Man, I was impressed how perfect each one tasted. Like I said, I’ve tasted plenty of bad ones in the past but now I know there’s hope. I also appreciate the fact that you can customize your drink with how much ice and/or sugar you want. Perfect!

*goes to Kung fu tea once* 5STARS. I reaaaaalllly dig it here. I really enjoy boba so naturally I would enjoy what Kung fu tea has to offer. I ordered a mango boba with mango jelly. Aughuhhugg… Just even thinking about it makes me wish there was one in my hand right now! So so good and refreshing and not too sweet. And the thing is, they offered to fix the drink if it is not to your liking! That’s pretty nice of them to be upfront with that — they CARE about whether you like your drink or not. the people working here are nice… Hecka busy, running around– but nice nonetheless. That’s skill, yo. The lines are long blah blah blah, but really– it’s worth the wait. I tried a bit of the taro slush and that is like a roller coaster in your mouth, eXHILARATING. I want to try everything they have so I will most definitely be back ;o

I’m seriously obsessed with this place. On my most recent trip to Vegas, I came here twice in three days. I would have came more often but the hubs would give me the stink eye… I tried the white gourd milk tea and it was great! The oolong milk tea was as good as I remembered it to be. Hats off to the amazing staff! They are very helpful with giving suggestions and are so accommodating. This was our last stop before we started our three hour drive home. I got a couple of drinks for my friends to try and I asked for no ice. I was expecting my cup to be ¾ filled, like how most places do it when I ask for no ice. Nope! KFT filled it to the brim! Please open one in SGV or OC area!

Located in the same parking lot as Raku, Hwaro, Monta, Raku Sweets — so why wouldn’t it be good! Small, cute, and modern! Really busy, like lines-ALWAYS-out-the-door busy. buuuut service is fast! Gets pretty crowded and there are only a couple of tables and chairs available, but it clears out pretty quick. Props to the employees being able to get orders out as soon as they can and being able to stay cool when it gets crazy! A handful of choices from their menu — milk teas, slushes, teas, and coffee. I must say there isn’t a lot of flavors, but the flavors they do have are good! Along with their milk teas and slushes, there’s customization with the drinks(i.e. sweetness level, more/less toppings, more/less ice, etc), that’s definitely a plus! Favorites would have to be taro and matcha green tea — either in milk tea or slush. I’m not a big boba fan, I honestly would only prefer 5 – 7 bobas in my drinks, but the boba here is done right I end up not really minding it. Lol! I love the milky goodness from the drinks and a recent founding would be doing half boba and half pudding for toppings — SOOO good! Definitely a «HI-YA» to your taste buds! Can’t wait to come back and try the White Gourd Green Tea that everyone seems to rave about!

I am from LA, and I’ve had boba from a LOT of places. I would actually consider myself a boba connoisseur. I definitely thought that Kung fu Tea is among the top contenders for best boba places that I’ve tried. I actually wish they had one in LA! I ordered the most famous oolong tea milk tea with boba and it was amazing! The automatic shaking machine they use really infused the milk into the tea and even gave it a frothy texture. Strong oolong taste but not too strong where it was over-bearing. I remember the boba being very chewy and had a great texture and overall very consistent. Hope they open one in LA soon and will definitely be back the next time I’m in town.

I ALWAYS make a visit here whenever I’m in Vegas! The tea and boba here are so good! They mix is so well and if you’re not satisfied with your drink they will make it again until you like it! The boba is soft and chewy and makes your drink that much better! I would recommend the white gourd green milk tea, grapefruit yogurt/gt, or any milk tea and teas! They’re all so fresh! I always look forward to coming here whenever I take a Vegas trip! :)

The first time I tried Kung Fu Tea, I was on my way to my night job and called in an order. I am glad I did because this place was packed! I ordered a medium taro slush with boba and it was just finishing by the time I arrived. The girl on the phone asked me if I wanted it regular sweetness and I said sure. Big mistake. I found this to be wayyyy too sweet for me so I gave it to my coworker. She thought it was perfectly sweet so I guess it’s personal preference. I did enjoy the boba though, they were chewy and delicious. Next time I came in they were out of Boba. Booooo. It was only 5pm so I was pretty disappointed. The sweet cashier offered some other toppings and even let me sample the different jellies they offer such as herbal and pineapple. I wasn’t a fan of the herbal, but the pineapple was pretty tasty. I didn’t think either jelly would taste good with what I wanted though so I ended up skipping that, but it was nice to have been able to try them. I always wondered what all the puddings, beans and jellies tasted like. I usually just order boba, but I love trying things out of my comfort zone. Anyway I ended up with a matcha red bean slush with red bean topping. This time I ordered it less sweet and it was perfect. TBH I have never had red beans before, but they were actually pretty good and a tad sweet. I for sure don’t like red bean as much as boba, but it’s always fun to have other options. Now that the warmer months are approaching, I can see myself stopping her a lot. I appreciate the friendly customer service, and let’s be honest there is nothing like a cold slush or milk tea on a hot day. I can’t wait to try their Oreo milk tea with real crushed Oreo’s, mmmm.

I’m pretty sure I had this bookmarked for the last year or so when I saw Antonia R check in or write a review, but a 4.5 rating for a boba place in Vegas? BOOKMARKED. I had to come here, I just had to: P I was going to make my way here regardless on my recent LV trip. We came here on our first day after getting lunch on Jones and realized that this place was in a plaza that wasn’t too too pops. Yeah no. It has Monta Ramen(I think that’s the name) which supposedly has one of the better ramen places in Vegas. And it has cheap Big Wong Restaurant(which I wasn’t a fan of). Regardless, they had a line. A very long line. Which came after we stepped into Kung Fu Tea! So here you can get sweetness and ice levels specified here. That’s to mention before I forget: P Cuz I probably will forget. Anywho, the guy realized that we were out of towners or first time noobs. Maybe because I asked«What was popular». Wait. Why did I ask that? I had Unilocal already. Well it’s okay, you should ask what’s popular as a great way for them to tell you what THEY know it’s popular, because they work there and all. White Gourd Tea. I believe that was a winter melon. Now never would I have been like«oh eyo, white gourd sounds good, lemme try it». No lol. I’d be like why? But since Unilocal had said it, I tried it. It’s the perfect sweetness and I don’t really have a specific taste in how it is lol. It’s… different. It’s nothing that you would expect winter melon to really taste like: P It’s good. Trust me. :) It’s…light. Mango Slush? It had a different name, but they gave us a sample for it and it was LEGIT. It is a slush and more of a thicker drink, but their mango has an amazing taste, it really does. I got the sample and thought there was condensed milk in there or something, it’s sweet and nice. Ermagawd I want this now. Matcha Red Bean Slush — Ummm I don’t really know what to say about this. The matcha was a bit weaker than I expected but their red bean was legit. It’s like they make it themselves rather than use it out of the can. It tastes fresh. The slush? You have to let it melt. If you like red bean, get this! If not, try the mango slush. KF Milk Green Tea– I saved this all the way to Primm! Yes there’s a lot of traffic but this drink made it all the way to Primm: P They have really great flavor and it’s refreshing. It may make you wanna pee near stateline but it’s the perfect sweetness, the perfect flavor, cool, and suave. :) Oreo Milk tea– if you like oreos, try it. I wasn’t too keen on it. It tasted way too watery(so I guess I only like oreo milkshakes or slushes) :/ Check in on Unilocal for a Free Topping! *ANOTHERTIP* You can get HALFANDHALF for toppings! You can get half boba half egg pudding, etc, etc. Their boba also has honey on the outside. Why? I can taste it. Boba is bad for you but KF’s is so good. Their boba apparently is supposed to melt slowly in your drink: P Yeah, we came twice in two days lol. It’s popular, and it’s gonna come kick your butt! :) TRYITOUT!

Came here to get a boba drink since we were close by. It is one of the places I bookmarked awhile back. We found parking up front. It is located in a shopping center. Parking sucks here but we were lucky to find a parking spot up front. As we entered, we were greeted hello. I was looking at the menu. The have teas and milk teas. I am not a fan of milk teas only regular flavored teas. I ordered a large mango green tea with boba and jellies with half sugar. With a check in on Unilocal,you get a free add on so I got the jellies free. Cool deal. I got my daughter a small passion fruit slush with jellies. The boba was soft and fresh. Best tasting boba ever. The jellies were sweet and soft. I loved this place because there was music playing and a large flat screen television inside. Seating was limited and the place got packed with people fast. Must be a popular place for drinks. I really enjoyed my large mango green tea with boba and jellies. If your into boba drinks, this is the place to go to. I highly recommend this place if you are near by.

Everyone who likes milk teas, tea, or coffee needs to come here for their fix!!! It’s inexpensive and you get a generous amount too! Seating is kind of small, and if you get there at like noon or 1, it will be busy enough that the line goes out the door! They have a menu of the side of the wall inside the store, a menu outside as well when you’re sitting in line and a menu hanging on top by the register too! Check in on Unilocal and you get a free topping like boba or pudding! Delicious!!! I am coming back here! You can get 4 drinks for about $ 15.00!
