Mixed feeling about the food at this place.

Popcorn chicken is a 5 star item.
Honey glazed tater tots is just food. Not tasty, not bad just whatever. 3 star maybe.

Drinks are nothing special but taste good though. I think I’ve been to too many boba drink shops. It’s good

Atmosphere is fine but I wished high chairs had more backing. You’ll understand once you sit in one of them.

Repeat: just to for the popcorn chicken. Everything else is probably forgettable. But the popcorn chicken is awesome.

A bit on the pricey end but quite good. Ordered a Spicy Taiwanese Fried Chicken Sandwich w/ Mapo Tots ($20) and a Matcha Jin Xuang Oolong ($7.50).

The sandwich was good. The chicken was a bit savory, and the bread was a bit sweet, making a nice mix of the two (wasn’t spicy at all). The Mapo tater tots were crispy, and the cheese on top made it delightful (the tofu didn’t add much to the overall flavor but was good either way). I enjoyed the matcha since I like the earthy taste with a dash of sweetness.

Now for the atmposhere and service. The place was a bit small with a small café design but the outdoor seats were nice since soothing music was playing on a speaker. The workers was also nice and gave an uplifting vibe to the place. Recieved my order in ~10 min.

An overall good place to eat/drink every once in a while, especially with friends!

Really fresh drinks and delicious popcorn chicken! We enjoyed the Hoji-corn Latte with tapioca boba and Oolong Tea with pudding. Boba was perfectly cooked and I loved the savory addition of the corn juice/milk to the Hojicha Latte. Umami twist to a classic Hojicha. Will return again!

I got the bento box with the popcorn chicken and it was so delicious. The assam mango tea was pretty bitter, but the jasmine tea was very good as it had a strong taste

Second time in LA and I had to stop by Bopomofo again! Staff were super nice and welcoming and also recommended a drink for my friend. Its a small cafe with just enough seatings. We came around 11am and there were plenty of seats. We ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp Burger, Taiwanese Fried Chicken Sandwich, mapo tots with runny egg, Strawberry corn milk and strawberry basil ginger lemonade. The shrimp burger was lightly battered and had a good amount of shrimp filling. The spicy taiwanese fried chicken sandwich was juicy and fried to perfection sandwiched with their famous pineapple bun. The runny egg with the mapo tots made the tots a bit creamy and flavorful. I was hesitant to try their strawberry corn milk, but surprisingly it was pretty good, not too sweet and you can actually taste the corn. Wish I was able to meet Phil that day, but maybe next time when I visit LA again.

We ordered the two most popular food here: Popcorn chicken and Spicy Taiwanese chicken sandwich. Both of them were very good but I don’t think the sandwich is worth the price. We spent $10.25 for a big potion of Popcorn chicken while the Spicy Taiwanese chicken sandwich costs us $13.25. The flavor of the fried chicken for both taste sort of the same but way more meat for Popcorn chicken. Staff was efficient even though the line was long. Our order was ready in about 5 or 10 minutes.
The store was clean and very crowded inside. They also provide some tables and seats in front of the store. We were lucky to get one because it was so nice sitting out there while enjoying the food.

I was excited to try this place because of who the owners are! It’s a cute little spot. Good seating inside and outside. Seemed a little cramped inside though.
We got the honey walnut shrimp burger and the ma po tofu tots. They were both ok. Kind of strange combinations to be honest… can’t quite put a finger on the taste… the burger was really juicy though. I think the spicy sauce on the tots was slightly weird. Just overall odd on both ends lol but I appreciate the effort haha. Got the coffee boba too and that was very good!
Overall good boba but meh food!

Finally got to come!!! Expect to pay the quality of the food and drinks. I know some people said they had to wait…but I went on a weekday and ordered ahead. They served it around the time they said they would. Came up from NorCal, didn’t get to see Phil this time but I guess I’ll have to go back.

Favorite food: onion pancake and queso and Mopo Tofu Tots

Favorite drink of the group: Carrot Matcha
But I liked the summer blend. Tried their LA autumn 50% sweet and it was really refreshing still sweet but nothing I would complain about.

Love this place! We ordered spicy popcorn chicken, shrimp burger, tater tots, brown sugar milk tea with house pudding. Everything was very fresh and delicious. The service was excellent and portion size was worth the money. The only thing is they gave a bit too much ice in the milk tea. All in all, a great place to have a quick lunch and do some work (weekday afternoons less busy).

Highly recommend!

Got the Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken which was a sizable portion. The outside spice flavoring was pretty spot on and the frying just the right kind of crunch. However the dark meat option that we ordered tasted a little off, maybe slightly sour – possibly too much Chinese cooking wine.

Service was fast. The atmosphere was lively.
