Tapioca Express - S San Diego

Order the chicken combo meal on Saturday and now as of Tuesday I am hospitalized with food poisoning. Avoid this

A lot of people hate on TapEx. A lot. However, for me I believe that TapEx is severely underrated. $10 bucks for a meal I can eat for two days and it comes with boba? I honestly crave their crispy chicken sometimes and the free green tea goes so good with the combo meal. Been going here as a UCSD student and I still go sometimes for a quick meal! Good place for college students looking for a late night snack or quick meal : Reccommend: Crispy Chicken Meal with Green Tea (add boba Must eat the chicken with the sweet chili sauce that they offer on the side! The spice level is also not that bad so I usually get medium spicy. I would also recommend getting the #1 Crispy Chicken Rice over the Manager's Special Crispy Chicken Bowl because it comes with more food and includes a free tea drink.

I had ordered online but mistakenly at the wrong location. the manager was extremely kind about it and made it at the ucsd location with no extra charge. food was delicious, and quick!

Best boba I’ve had in years. Also chicken snacks slapped.

I had tapex on a Monday night and the experience was amazing! The cashier Eva was very attentive and welcoming, and provided me amazing customer service when asking what was popular here. There is a reallly extensive menu with combos, snacks, blended drinks, and regular milk teas. I got the recommended Triton MT and it was so delicious! Perfect hint of flowery and a subtle milkiness. I really recommend this place because of the crispy chicken snack so crispy, crunchy, and the sweet chili sauce is amazing. Usually, I mix sweet chili and sriracha together for sweet and spicy.
