Underwhelming

Picked up 2 pad Thais to go. Food was bland and portions were small. Pad Thai was also very oily. Will not be returning here

Cons: Flavorless, Small portions , Greasy

Wasn't impressed

I've been here many times in the last 10 years. Today was not favorable. First, the young lady taking my order was not pleasant, 2nd when giving her my cash, I placed the money directly in her hand, returning my change she placed it on the counter (which is very rude). I ordered from the lunch menu a rice box with crispy spring rolls. The box consisted of spring mix salad, a tasteless dressing (not sure what it was but tasted like a slightly sweet water no flavor), old white rice and what appeared to be one cut up spring roll. The meal was in general...tasteless. I am from Maryland and have enjoyed pass meals here and always looked forward to visiting for a dining experience. Not sure what as changed but whatever changed it was noticable for the worst. Not sure if I will return again. Also, using the restroom while waiting for my meal, it was not clean and hadn't been freshened up in a while also a bit smelly.

Cons: None, None, None

I won't go back again!

I've eaten here a few times when I've passed through town. But tonight I ordered a Pho to go, expecting simple mild broth and veggies ... aside from the fact that the veggies were but a 1/2 sprig of cilantro, a little lettuce (!?) and a teaspoon of beansprouts plus a bunch of noodles, they'd put what seemed like ghost peppers in the broth, the first bite was agonizingly hot everywhere in my mouth, tongue. Terrible experience! And the supreme roll I had for starters was so bland- they forgot to put the sauce in the bag. And the food's not cheap. I won't go back!

Pretty much all vegan

Staff is very knowledgeable on vegan items. I think it was only like 5 or so things that could not be made vegan.

Pros: Lots of options, Great staff

Average

I enjoyed my fried spring roll appetizers. However, I wasn’t a big fan of the woking noodle. A good portion of the noodles were stuck together and it honestly tasted like something frozen that was reheated. Overall, It is my experience and opinion that the price point doesn’t really match the quality of food. I would be open to dining here again and trying something different.

Cons: Expensive

OG vegetarian option

Good flavors and many options! Most but not everything is vegan. Enjoyed the dessert special - pumpkin chocolate chip cake!

Excellent for vegans

A fantasic little venue offering an almost entirely vegan menu very close to UNCG. The meal I had was incredibly tasty and I'm sure to be back to try other offerings!

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Friendly staff, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Very asian centric menu, may not be for everyone

One of our faves!

My wife and I love coming to Boba House both for a spontaneous lunch as well as for pre-show dinners when coming to downtown Greensboro (Tanger Center)

Lots of options

Boba house has a variety of vegan (and gluten free) options. We really enjoyed our meal at boba house, and everyone was quite friendly. I only wish there were more veggies in the entrees.

Pros: Tons of options, Clearly labeled menu

Cons: More veggies, please :)

Favorite place in Greensboro

So far my favorite vegetarian restaurant in Greensboro. Lots of options and every single one of them taste great. All this come at a pretty steep price though so if you are on a budget make sure to account for this fact. Also a negative is the parking not many spaces and the uncg parking police are everywhere.

Pros: Great taste, Good portion size

Cons: Parking spaces are small

Great menu

We ordered several appetizers which were all delicious. The entrees weren’t all that great (the vegetables were so over cooked they were mushy) We ended up ordering more appetizers. Yum

My fave place

The best dishes (in my opinion) are tofu pho and the pad Thai. The pho is the best I’ve ever had, even better than in Vietnam!

Pros: Amazing flavors, Good prices, Everything

Deliciously Sweet

While I don't have anything to say about the service or similar in-house characteristics since it is only take out at the moment, I can say that the flavor of my meal was somehow even better than the smell of the heavenly aroma that filled my car as I drove him with take out. First off, the "chicken" drumsticks are somewhat ironically the best drumsticks I've had of any kind, including real chicken and turkey, with a semi-sweet light breading coat and an excellent hawaiian dipping sauce. My meal, the Hula pot. Had a similar sweet flavor to it, and I opted for the rather large chunks of "chicken" (vegetables or tofu available too). The thin noodles and sweet potato added a lot of weight, making it very filling despite how light it initially looked. The sauce is almost creamy, with the sweet flavoring at the forefront and a nice curry spice kick staying on your tongue for quite a while afterward. Its obvious why this place is so popular, and with my only complaint being that it is a bit pricey, its unlike anything else in the area and well worth a visit.

Pros: Good options, Delicious, Filling

Cons: A bit expensive

Vegan Safe Haven!

Been meaning to try this place for a while, and so glad I did! There are so many vegan options to choose from. I got the Hawaiian Stir Fry and it was very tasty and filling! We also tried the "chicken drumbsticks", and those were delicious as well. I will be back again!

Pros: Menu clearly indicates Vegan options

Nearly everything can be made gluten free and vegan. The sauces are AMAZING! and the portions are huge. One box was enough for three meals. And we each got something different so we could taste each other’s. Ever meal was great

Pros: Lots of vegan options , All gluten free , Huge portions
