Saru Tea Bar

“ A must-try for any Boba Tea fan! While I wouldn't place myself in this category, I do appreciate the occasional milk tea. This cozy, family-owned business is a must-try for anybody looking to support a ground-up, local establishment. I've never seen anybody use cocktail shakers and house-made syrups at a tea shop, but this was a first. Definitely a statement of what goes into your drinks. And even though I haven't had a chance to try their sushi, I'm hoping to in the near future. And if that wasn't good enough, the owner is quite friendly, outgoing, and a proud Nebraskan. The one thing I wish was that there was a guide to the different traditional flavors for amateurs like myself, but that's just a personal preference. Please support this local gem, as suburban Lincoln needs even more community-focused (non-chain) restaurants. Cheers! ”

“ Staff gave a great recommendation, the Okinawa Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea! Great place to hang out with friends or come to study/work! Did not try any of the food, but many other customers were enjoying their menu selection Also have board games available and a punch card! Will definitely come back for the yummy drinks and good vibes ”

“ Their boba is top tier!! The best boba I ever had and I have been to CA and I also live in TX. The service is good too. Inside is pretty spacious, they have board games if you want to sit and enjoy the best boba. I highly recommend Okinawa milk tea or brown sugar with 25% sugar, light ice. I have heard that their green thai tea is amazing aswell ”

“ This cute little spot is tucked in the back of Clocktower in the corner. It's super clean inside with a few tables of seating. They've got sushi, apps, milk teas, and lemonade style drinks on their menu. I got 25% sugar and that was right for me, still sweet but not overwhelming. The taro was delish. The golden boba was on the softer side (which I love), but still chewy. ”

“ Just tried this place for the first time absolutely fantastic. Great Boba tea and the sushi is amazing as well. Try the OMG roll!! ”

“ I love this place for a quick lunch! There is a small (compared to a lot of places) but DELICIOUS selection of rolls, the Hanabi roll is the best! I've been making my way through the massive drink selection and I haven't been disappointed yet. Good and drinks always come fast and it's never empty, I never been to only customer even at weird times of the day. ”

“ Definitely a hidden gem located in my neighborhood. This is a no fuss cafe to get your sushi and tea fix. Really enjoyed our time here. ”

“ I was given a tip that this place was a gem, and had to promptly try it! I got the classic milk tea with boba, and half sugar. It was perfect. So yummy. They also have games and just seems like a nice place to chill with friends or family. Side note: There was a group there eating sushi, and it looked amazing. ”

“ ORDER - Wintermelon Tea Fluffy Cream - Lincoln Roll The Wintermelon Tea Fluffy Cream was a bit on the sweeter side. However, I would say the cream was nice, rich, and very well incorporated into the drink. Another thing I would note is that their boba is more on the hard side (which is not really what I prefer) making the boba decent (but kinda mid). The presentation is amazing but from what I heard from my cousins that came, they were all very satisfied with the flavor and taste of their drinks. The Lincoln Roll is a deep-fried California Roll with Salmon on top. Overall it was a good dish. The rolls came with 8 pieces (I would say it was a little more on the expensive side but that's just my personal opinion). It was deep-fried well and evenly and overall good, but I would note that the sauce was a little bit overpowering in some bites. Overall, coming from someone from Texas, the drinks are pretty decent and the food is as well! VIBES The place is pretty small but has a decent amount of seating for the side. There are tall tables as well as long tables with benches. There aren't too many decorations throughout, but the place is clean and tidy! Seems like a good place to study or chill. SERVICE Service was overall nice. We had a group of 10 or so people (mainly teens /adults ranging from 12-22). I asked for recommendations on the drinks and the person who took my order went through each section of the drinks, giving me suggestions for what to order. On a side note, the cups are very cute and functional (with the white lids and heart thing). ”

“ Was in town for my hubbies surgery (we live in Omaha) and I found this fantastic place? The bobi tea was the best I've had and so was the sushi! On top of that the service was amazing! So friendly and delicious! Highly recommend! ”
