| - Boba Hut specializes in Asian Fusion type dishes, with the main specialties being Hawaiian and Chinese food; however, the name of the place makes it known that they also specialize in tea and boba. They're also part of an expanding chain where a similar restaurant named Curry Hut has just opened in Vegas.
My cousin is a fan of their slushie type drinks and brought me one afternoon to give it a try, knowing that I enjoy boba. Boba Hut is located on Rainbow Blvd in a decent sized plaza around the corner from Dickie's BBQ.
They have Hawaiian plates (BBQ chicken, Kalua pork, Katsu), appetizers (potstickers, popcorn shrimp, French fries, etc.), Asian plates (Kung Pao chicken, fried rice, stir fry) as well as macaroni soups and burgers.
We all shared an order of the Drunken Noodles with chicken ($8.10) - beef costs an additional fifty-five cents. I thought the dish was pretty tasty. Very similar to the Asian "beef chow fun noodles". The dish was pretty large, served in a Styrofoam box that was able to feed four people. Not too oily and there was enough "wok hei" to give it that good flavor. Good amount of chicken - and adding Sriracha made it taste that much better. I would recommend trying this out.
As for the drinks - you can customize your drink by picking a base, flavor, sweetness level, and toppings OR you can choose from their specialty drinks, slushes, smoothies, etc. I went with a safe choice and tried their green milk tea with honey boba ($3.65). With the blender going off every other minute, it seemed like they really did produce quality drinks; however, when I tried my milk tea - it tasted incredibly bland. The color was not right and there was no flavor in the drink at all! It actually tasted like a watered down milk tea. I went to the counter and asked another worker if this was the green milk tea. She apologized and took my old one before reaching into the refrigerator and pulling out an already made green milk tea ... so they had messed up my order and had given me a boba milk tea instead. The new green milk tea did taste better than the first drink, but not by much. I don't think I have very high standards for tea, but the drink was pretty pricey yet the quality was subpar - I would put it below Quickly. Not much tea flavor - boba was cooked pretty well, but didn't get that "honey" to the boba either.
Maybe their slushes and smoothies are better choices. I saw a ton of people ordering those, and my cousin seemed to really enjoy his pineapple slush.
tl;dr - Would not recommend ordering any milk teas from this place. Maybe their other drinks are pretty good, but the milk tea and green milk tea were both pretty disappointing. Drunken noodles are not too bad, but I don't think I'd return to this place if I had the option.
