Suck It San Antonio

3.5 stars

for san antonio, the boba here is some of the best (but we have very few options to choose from). the actual tapioca here is done very well, and the drinks are usually pretty good if you get the smoothie version and ask for half sugar. but the worst part is that it's also a hookah bar and even if you just want to step in and get an order to go, the smell from the other side permeates through the walls. prices here are also pretty absurd, but again, it's san antonio -- can't be too picky.

This place has a nice layout, but it's kind of not my scene.  However, because I just had THE BEST TARO BUBBLE TEA I've ever had here, I still give them 5 stars.  Their one flaw (for me, maybe benefit for others) is they are on the complete opposite end of town! :(  Regardless, if I am in the area, I WILL stop by.  I read Jai J.'s review about how they use fresh taro as an alternative to the powder, which I thought was awesome, but I forgot to ask.  
The place has a really cool logo, this panda face (with a cheshire cat smile), so I bought a bumper sticker for my brother because he happens to have an obsession with pandas.  Also, because of the hooka bar, this place smells pretty amazing.  The smells of people smoking whatever fruit or fruit tabacco that they smoke, I'm not really even sure, but it smells really, really good.
I only wish there was another... closer to my end of town.

I am always in the mood for some good bubble tea in a hot summer day. I stopped by SISA for the first time and got an almond bubble tea.

Several reviewers were saying their drink was a little sweet so I told them not to make my tea too sweet. As a result, my almond bubble tea was lack of flavor and very watery. The only good thing was the bubbles which were very chewy and cooked just right.

The store looks like a place for college kids to hang out. Not my thing. Wish San Antonio had Austin's coco's cafe. Coco's bubble tea is always legit. Sorry, I won't be returning. Yea, you can suck it SISA! BTW, pandas don't grin like that. Kinda creepy. Just saying!
