Lasaka House Of Noodles - Valley Stream

I visited this place for bubble tea, but my experience was disappointing. The person behind the counter was unable to clearly explain whether they offer tea with or without milk, and eventually mentioned that they only had two flavors available. I decided to try a LARGE Mango Milk Bubble Tea, which cost me $7—definitely not worth it! The drink tasted overwhelmingly like powder, which was quite unappetizing. I almost wanted to return it because everything about it was off. The machine they use to shake the drinks looks cool, but it didn’t work for me. Additionally, the tapioca pearls were inconsistently cooked; some were fine, while others were still hard. I can’t speak for the food, but I strongly recommend avoiding the bubble tea. Trust me, I've saved you from a disappointing experience.

The restaurant offers limited fish options, and they charge an extra $1.50 for tilapia. The all-you-can-eat price is $10.50, but it only includes two types of rice and two types of noodles. There is an additional $2 charge if you overfill your container and another $2 if you choose only meat. So, it doesn't really feel like "all you can eat" due to many hidden fees and restrictions. The variety is lacking, and the food itself tasted bland, overly salty, and greasy—there wasn't much flavor. However, the server was friendly and polite. The plain noodles were served cold, but the plain white rice was surprisingly the best part.

The Chinese food was quite disappointing. I should have gone to the famous rotisserie instead. Additionally, they didn't fill my plate as advertised. When I asked for more, they were reluctant to add any extra.

My mom discovered a cockroach in the lo mein, and they didn't even remove it; they just let customers continue serving themselves from that dish. I strongly advise against eating there.
