    Such a cute place has that fun kids vibe. Staff really nice and friendly So many drink options hard to make a decision on just one.

    The best addition to this plaza, especially for those that are charging their vehicles. I'm a sucker for boba and asian small treats so this place is heaven. Waited to try this place twice to write a review. I'm a sucker for anything mango so naturally, I went for the mango coco float. This drink is so refreshing - it even has mango chunks. I love their crystal boba here. It's got the right amount of chewy. The variety of sweet and savory treats the offer is quite the spread. So far, I've tried the BBQ pork steamed buns, shumai, and the waffle. All have been the perfect pairing to the drinks. Ample seating & great wifi. They also have a few claw machines in the back. There's tons of little packaged snacks and knick knacks as well. Friendly staff. Efficient service. Chelsea is great! She made sure the drink was to my liking.

    Cute place, attentive & friendly staff. We ordered sesame & bbq pork bao along with mango ebisu which taste amazing so fluffy and not too sweet, and their popular strawberry mashed tea drink

    Mango coco float and fruit tea madness

    This is such a cute spot! Definitely bright inside with lots of colors and cute characters. We only wanted drinks so we got Fruit Tea Madness and the Mango Coco Float (both (Top 5 drinks) Both drinks were really refreshing and the service was quick and friendly. They also have food (dimsum/desserts) - would definitely try it in the future!

    Cucue is such a super cute place, especially for kids! They have so many trending toys at really affordable prices, which makes the shop fun to visit even beyond the drinks. As a tea lover, I've been to pretty much all the tea places around Irvine and Lake Forest, and Cucue definitely stands out. Their drinks are really good, and my personal favorite is their buckets. I haven't seen anything like them offered anywhere else so far! They also have a food menu, and everything I've tried has been very good. What really makes this place extra special, though, is the people. The owner and everyone working there are extremely nice and welcoming. They always greet customers when they come in and say goodbye when they leave, which is such a small but meaningful touch.

    Hidden Gem in Lake Forest! From the outside, the shop looks small, but inside it's actually very spacious. I've never seen a boba brand pay this much attention to detail with their interior decoration. Everything was so cute--even the chairs, haha. The owner mentioned this is their first location in California, originally from Arizona. Drinks: They have a lot of options, and I believe they're still updating their menu. The tea was good (not the best for me, but definitely decent), and you can adjust the sweetness. My order was the Rose Milk Tea. Service: Fast and friendly. They even have claw machines, and on promotion days, if your purchase is over a certain amount, they'll give you tokens to play.

    We ordered pick up and it was ready soon after we got there. Workers are very nice, and the inside is much bigger than expected. Lots of snacks, and toys for sale, including a couple claw machines. They have hot food for sale, too. The drinks we got were really tasty. Lots of Mango flavor in the Mango Coco Float!

    This place is a great location to wind down, lounge, have some good snacks and of course drinks. We don't live far but wanted to find a place to chill out and escape the rain. The vibes here are 10/10 and we love the little things like the various blind boxes they sell and claw machines. Their service here is great too. The staff is friendly and quick to help. Great little tea/drink spot here in Lake Forest!

    Very cute setup for a boba shop, feels more like part of an arcade than just a boba shop. The girl at the front was informative and gave her thoughts on whats worth highlighting. I ended up getting the melon milk bubble drink, wasn't too sweet and had a nice hit of melon flavor. While waiting for the order, there's a a couple claw machines in the back to mess with. They even give you a coin with the drink purchase just to try it out.

    Wanted to check out the new boba place near our house. Came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Great tasting tea drinks. So far we have tried the OG boba milk tea, HK lemon tea, watermelon smash and galaxy rainbow soda drink. You can adjust the amount of ice, sugar and choice of boba or Star crystals. Did I mention the tea is legit. Imported and certified from Taiwan. Nice simple rewards program for free. Every drink purchase as of writing this gets a free token for the claw machine. The secret best thing to order are the waffle pops. So delicious. So cheap too. You'll need to order more than one. The store is clean, cute and full of bright colors. The service is outstanding. Andy and Joshua were super friendly. You need to check this place out.

    Front of shop, can't miss the giant boba figure!

    Super adorable boba shop that offers so many things, from a variety of drinks to trendy merch to some claw machines. I imagine Boba Cucue will soon be popular for kiddos, foodie influencers, and chill hangouts. The girl who helped us was very patient while explaining the menu, available adjustments and substitutions, and current promos. There is definitely something for everyone, but they currently only have one coffee drink, the Malaysian White Mocha, which is a must-try if you like a sweet and creamy caffeine kick. The coffee jelly it came with was good, too. We also got Coco-Mango Bubble with crystal boba (nice tropical combo), White Peach Oolong Smash Tea (light and refreshing), Fire Cream Brulee Milk Tea with brown sugar boba (meh, won't get again), and Rose Milk Tea (strong rose flavor even at less sugar). Pretty much everything was tasty, except for the Fire Cream Brulee Milk Tea since it had a heavy flavor that we didn't really like in black milk teas. I'd love to try the Chocolate Panda Frappe and the other Smashed Fruit Teas next time. Prices seemed comparable to other boba shops, and they probs includes the cost of the cute cups and caps. Parking is free and aplenty in the plaza lot.

    We're getting a Triple Berry Ube Float ! Wow, this place is too cute! Can't wait to take my daughters here. I can't wait to try my float right now! Great photo opportunity, everybody was super nice there. Very refreshing on this warm summer day, it tasted fresh and smooth, kind of milky. If you're in the area, this is a nice place to stop by, just to even check out for a photo opportunity!

    It's currently their soft opening and we've already been a couple times. Friendly service and good variety of drinks, including tea-based or not. You can customize the amount of sugar/sweetness. The Fruit Tea Madness is really refreshing. The Strawberry Smash Green Tea and Strawberry Milk Bubble are good too. Seems like they'll eventually have ice cream and other non-boba snacks.

Sure enough, spotted a solid crowd of folks already waiting.

But the real stars for me were the congee and the ham sui gok (deep fried, savory pork/shrimp glutinous rice dumplings... iykyk). And bonus points for the homemade chili oil - though I do sometimes just want the rooster chili garlic sauce with my dim sum, which they didn't have :( In any case, there was plenty of seating, so no crowding issues once seated. Honestly one of the most authentic dim sum experiences I've had since leaving Hong Kong, and something I just can't find in San Diego, so I think worth the drive!!

I can barely respond in time until he speaks again or asks the question over. I asked him to slow down when picking up an order today. He said okay, but kept speaking at rapid machine gun rate. Here's the problem: He makes the customer feel rushed when there is no need. As a result, the customer interaction becomes unpleasant and even somewhat disrespectful. I know that's not his intention, but I can tell you that I would prefer to speak to another person if that option is available. I was picking up at an order around 11:30 am on Wednesday morning and there was only one another customer who was waiting for her pickup order. The restaurant was empty.

The restaurant does get packed during lunch and dinner, which just shows how good the food is. If you want a more relaxed visit, I recommend going around 2 PM, which is usually when we come. Overall, great food, great service, and a place we will keep returning to.

We did end up getting seated at the tall tables; however, we had a two year old with us...a bit inconvenient but no issue since the baby was able to still sit and eat. I'm sure they do have accommodations for young children if told earlier (we didn't let them know about the 2 year old so not their fault). Food came out quickly. We ordered one of each different XLB, chicken katsu, wonton with chili sauce, scallion pancake, noodles with scallion oil sauce, beef rolls. Everything tasted delicious. My favorite was the seven grams XLB which I believe is pork. Scallion pancake was so crispy!! One note is that the wonton with chili sauce was more sweet to me than spicy; still good though! I also ordered a osmanthus oolong tea (this is just hot water with a tea packet, but nice. i was able to take it to go too). Overall, I'm glad my family last minute decided to go to restaurant for dinner. Definitely recommend. Service, food, and vibes were all great. Our total came out to be around 110 including tip!!

The scallion pancake was a little thinner than I'd like, not a ton of scallion flavor. But we especially liked the XLB - juicy and full of meat! The cucumber salad was light and refreshing and the chili sauce wontons were tender and tangy. Great lunch spot - would love to try something from the drink menu the next time I'm back! :)
