They picked up on my ABC (American Born Chinese) accent right away! That and the "QQ"ness of the boba speak to the authenticity of this place! Bustling little place located in what I like to think of as the "chinatown of pittsburgh".
Veer away from the smoothie drinks--my "strawberry smoothie" boba was a hot pink color that was nowhere near natural. You judge a boba place by its plain milk tea anyways and it was thumbs up in my opinion. Ask for the BIG BOBA or else they give you the little ones and then your big straw is just useless.
Some favorites: home style tofu, sweet and sour pork chop, my favorite veggie dish "si gua" with scallops. Everything we've had from here has been yummy and I already know what I want next. Next time--beef noodle soup, you are mine!
