Joy Yee Noodle
A Chicagoland institution since 1994, Joy Yee was among the first restaurants in the Midwest to offer Taiwanese-style bubble teas, pairing South Asian fresh fruit smoothies with tapioca pearls. Set in the heart of Chinatown, it blends a full pan-Asian restaurant menu with an extensive boba drink list spanning milk teas, fruity slushes, and seasonal specials. After more than 30 years, it remains a must-visit landmark for boba history and variety.
