    The tea for me is good for the price! I get my mango green tea a quarter sweet because it is already superrrr sweet. I like to add lychee jelly into most my teas. Here they have lychee jelly stars!! They're super cool when you shake your drink. They also don't have the weird film the other lychee jelly's have. The seating area is super cute and festive. They have lots of seating for you to stop by and set up your laptop. The bobaristas are always super nice and patient when I make multiple drink orders.

    Creme Brulee Vietnamese Coffee 10/10  Tastes exactly like Thrifty Butter Pecan ice cream.  SO GOOD.

    Tried this place on a whim and I'm glad I did. Service was fast and friendly and my drink was absolutely delicious. Will be coming back for sure!

    Don't know why I haven't been here sooner, but just recently discovered this place a few months ago. Teas are always good. My go to is crime of passion, but I do need to ask for either half sugar or no sugar cause it tends to be a little too sweet for me. Service is always good and drinks come out quickly. I see students here all the time studying or hanging out so good spot for that.

    Iced Honey Milk Tea, 75% sweet with brown sugar boba and grass jelly. Peach mango green tea 100% sweet with lychee jelly and mango bits.

    Parking lot had a good amount of spaces available even though it was a shared lot. We came around 6:15pm and they weren't busy at all. People started to file in when it was 6:40pm or so! If you are with the reward program make sure you input your number before you pay-- that way if you have any redeemable points you can put them to use! The place had AC which is great for a hot day. And if you want a spot to relax further. You do need a key for the bathroom, they give you one with a rice paddle attached. Reminds me of high school. Just wanted to also mention that the wall near where we sat had some boba splatters at the trim and milk tea drippings. Not sure how long ago the boba has been there, but it would make the space more inviting to sit at if it were clean. Attached a pic! The difference between cup sizes is only 50cents! Get that larger size! I remembered that the brown sugar boba was on the sweeter side so I lowered the amount of sweetness for my drink but I think I could have even went to 25% rather than 50%! I was with my friend so we got: - Lotus Milk Tea, 50% sweet, with Brown Sugar Boba: The lotus milk tea has a delicate and mellow floral taste. They give lots of brown sugar boba which gives it a delicious sweetness, that may slightly overtake the flavor of lotus. But this is one of A Tea 7's most popular drink according to one of the workers. It's a definite must try if you want something new. - Roasted Oolong Milk Tea, 50% sweet, with Grass Jelly: I think I am trying to convince myself I'm a roasted oolong milk tea fan but it's just not for me. Or perhaps if it was 75% sweetened rather than 50%. The grass jelly was light and refreshing, no need to chew -- just swallow. The roasted flavor lowkey reminded me of seaweed or a savory note. Next time I'd go for the honey milk tea! I like this spot for the variety of drinks (they do not just have milk tea but fruit tea and fresh milks). And the multiple choices of toppings!

    Cookie Monster - yum!

    First impression was good. Opted for the Cookie Monster which had a mixture of tiger and Oreo cookies. So much flavor! I ordered 75% sweet which was a smart choice; I can't imagine how sweet 100% is. Service was super nice from each employee.

    Beautiful and interesting new years nod.

    We were initially the only people in the store, then one more after nearing their closing time. The cashier, helpful and answered all our questions. The ambiance is cute, they've got a shrine in the front. See photos. The drink, I must say was fabulous and pretty sweet. I had some of my hubby's drink. He ordered a crème brûlée (Creamsicle) with sub almond milk. Even the brown sugar boba was soft and not chewy like they can get at other places. We were happy to find this place and will go again.

    A 7 TEA! This place was listed for a pretty high rating and I was super excited to see how this will turn out! It was just about a 10 minute drive from San Diego State! Parking can be a hassle, it's in a small lot but shared with other stores too, so it can get crowded. The service took a bit, the server didn't come to us until after a couple minutes or so, and then we go out drinks! I decided to get the lychee green tea with boba, and my friend got the winter melon boba, with a total of $14. Not too pricey, but the quality wasn't the greatest. Boba was overcooked, the steaming of the tea was as well, and it had a very distinct taste in both of our drinks, kind of like a bitterness despite getting full sugar. Service itself was fast after ordering, we sat and got out drinks almost 3-4 minutes, and they had lots of decor, games, and I enjoy the new year's decoration! I'd recommend stopping by to give this place a try, but the quality should definitely be worked on.

    perfect tapioca pearls, not too hard to chew, and drinks were smooth!! I also got a pretzel, which was freshly made - warm and tasty! there is a parking lot but we had to park on the street due to road work - it looks like there were empty spots though! service was lovely, lady checked in with us. cute interior too. goated spot fr

    My favorite boba spot! Drinks are on point. Have been coming here for years and the drinks are consistently good. My favorite drink is the hidden dragon (a dragonfruit drink). The service was nice and fast. Chill place, i see people come and study or play board games.

    An inviting setting with comfortable seating, nice ambiance and pleasant decor along with all the important selection and options of tea, coffee and flavored drinks. Very kind patient and friendly staff, who are willing to go over every component of every drink to ensure you get exactly what you're aiming for. The only caveat I had is that the selection of decaffeinated drinks for adults was almost non existent. I was hoping for an elevated tea beverage later in the day that is more on the healthy side without the caffeine, not just a sweetened flavored drink. something to think about :) overall the drink we got were really good and love that you can choose the sweetness level.

    soooo good. we stumbled upon this place after a dinner date, the place was poppin! It was busy and saw it had good reviews (after the fact). I played it safe with a Thai tea and it was super good. I definitely have this spot saved for when I'm in the area again!

    The very first time we came here, the cups were sealed with some very thin plastic that broke and spilled our drinks all over ourselves and our car :( I'm glad they've now changed their cups and lids to something sturdier and less accident-prone. The drinks themselves are good and their brown sugar boba is very soft and sweet. The regular boba was harder and not as tasty so definitely opt for brown sugar boba when you can. For some reason all of their crème brûlée and sea salt foam has a hint of coconut milk flavor. I'm very sensitive to flavor so the combination of the coconut milk with my jasmine tea ended up tasting like Gorgonzola (blue cheese). I'm also not a fan of coconut milk in everything, which is why this time I opted for the only scenario where it makes sense: taro & Ube. There was so much good taro paste in this drink. $15 for 2 drinks is a bit pricey compared to other milk tea boba shops, but this is a luxury food. Service was always friendly each time we came. Parking is available in the small parking lot or on the street.

I ordered a hot Mazapan Latte. I first noticed how smooth the coffee was. I immediately got the feeling of being wrapped in a cozy blanket. This was quite a comforting drink. I then noticed the nuttiness of the coffee. Presumably, the Mazapan aided in providing that flavor profile. I love nutty coffees, so that combined with sweetness automatically made this drink a winner to me. If I'm in the area, this might just be my go-to coffee shop. I look forward to my next visit!

You can choose between two different types of espresso for your drinks, both on display at the register. Drinks take a bit to come out, come with patience. Their menu was a bit confusing with the +cold foam next to the drink which makes you think it comes with it but it does not. Took two pictures of the menu and one had the +cold foam and the other had a separate note saying cold foam $1. Iced drink creation: they add ice, then milk, then espresso and then syrup into a cup. They pour into a shaker, gently shake/swirl and then pour back into the cup. Great way to mix the flavor profile throughout. Tried: Holy Banana $8.50 - Good flavor. Orange blossom $8.50 - wasn't a fan of this one.

It was so good that I ended up coming here twice during my recent trip to San Diego. The staff inside were incredibly friendly, and I really appreciated that they let you sample the coffee before ordering. One sip was all it took for me. Their Famous Saigon Coffee has that perfect balance of being strong enough to give you a real pick me up while still being rich, creamy, and sweet. On my second visit, I tried the Famous Banana, which takes their original Saigon Coffee and tops it with organic banana foam, crushed praline, and cocoa. Somehow it made an already great coffee even better. The banana flavor worked surprisingly well with the coffee without overpowering it. All in all, Saigon Coffee gets my highest recommendation for coffee in San Diego. I will absolutely be making a beeline back here the next time I'm in town. If you take nothing else away from this review, just know that this coffe is good AF.
