Small place with limited seating. The hot pot was AMAZING and they had yummy bubble tea!!! They also had a side bar where you put together your own dipping sauce. We weren't sure how much food we would get with the hot pot but it was a great amount! We were both perfectly full with happy bellies! We will definitely be returning! The bathroom, however, left something to be desired. It felt like a dirty gas station bathroom with tree air fresheners hung all over... Total 180. Thus the 4 star rating.

We randomly stopped in for the Szechuan food- i would love to find a spot with legit Szechuan food. Unfortunately, that cook is off Sunday (today.) I ordered the spicy beef and peppers. It was excellent! The meat was tender and very flavorful - not overcooked like typical Chinese fast food beef. It was also very spicy, tho not as hot as some Thai food I've eaten. I'd say it was the perfect amount of heat for the dish. I can't wait to go back and try the spicy Szechuan offerings, and fill in that last star! 😁

Was here a year ago, and my daughters loved it, so for one daughter 14 birthday (a year later) went back for the soup (exactly 1 hour drive to get there). Odd atmosphere experience this time. However food was good, even if reason we went back was for the wonton soup, which they didn't have... I personally really enjoy their soup.

Very very good price for their food. The breaded and fried pork chop is particularly good, although I admit their noodle soups aren't too flavorful otherwise. The portions here are also quite large!

I love I Tea Cafe. Great place for Chinese food but even better for Shabu Shabu. Be warned you won't find any Americanized items so be adventurous. My personal favorite is the cuttlefish appetizer. Along with the herbal broth shabu shabu. Pro tip. When getting shabu shabu go with a group and every picks a different protein option. Then share and have many varieties to eat. Each table has an induction cooktop making it safe to cook table side. You get a lot of food for a relatively cheap price. There is a parking lot right out front, and also they have bubble and milk tea!!

A nice restaurant for Taiwanese student. May delicious Taiwanese dishes are available at a friendly price. I also like their hot pot/shabu shabu though its a little pricy.

The one of the best Taiwanese restaurants in Pittsburgh! Foods are authentic and very delicious. Pork chop and fried chicken (pepper flavor) are two my favorites! Plesss do try!

Love the food. It's consistently good. That said, the ingredients of the rice bowls I typically get are not consistent. Corn sometimes, sausage bits sometimes, bay leaves sometimes. But as stated, the main protein and rice are always made right. Spicy wonton and shrimp rolls (when they have them -they have been out the last few times) are really good as well.

I live super close and always go here for the tea and ramen. Staff has always been helpful to me. I'm there at least once a week or so. Highly recommend the black sugar and wintermellon teas. The minium for using a credit card is $20, but it's normally not an issue for getting a full meal. The ramen bowls are huge and filling.
