    Stopped for a quick drink and snack on a roadtrip. The gentleman working was very sweet and kind! They had lots of options to choose from. We had an accident with a drink spill and they were so kind and remade it for us. The drinks were refreshing! The dessert was hot and delicious! The woman working in the back was also very helpful and sweet. If you're close or just driving through, definitely recommend to try it out.

    The people were very friendly and welcoming. We have 5 drinks and they were all so delicious. My favorite was the cookies and cream shake. They have a nice little sitting area inside. I liked how they have a zodiac drink recommendation. If I had seen that before I would've ordered because my drink sounded like something I would order. Cool spot to pick up a drink on the go.

    Cute. Comfy. Small. Fast service. Brown sugar milk tea with oat milk - delicious even with the oat milk, still insanely sweet (extra $0.95 for oat milk) Cute small local business. But this isn't something I can see myself getting again.

    Tasty and refreshing, good boba spot. Tiny and cozy mom and pop shop. They although offer takayaki on menu, will try it next time

    SOUND SPECIALLLLLLLL

    I've tried a lot of boba shops around town, but this one stands out. The sound special IS AMAZINGGGGG, not too sweet/perfectly balanced. The taiyaki has so many differently fillings - Ive tried nutella and red bean *chef kiss*. Quick service, clean shop, and great atmosphere. 10/10 Highly recommend!

    Boba Sound on Western is the bomb.com! The housemate boba is super fresh, the milk tea is sweet & savory, the ambiance is clean, and the staff is very kind. Overall, my experience was 10/10. And, if you're into, astrology, they cater to your interest with specialized teas/smoothies associated with each astrological sign.

    I stopped by right after I had Kbbq right next door, and the boba was a good finisher to my meal! The service was great! If you have any questions about substituting or adjusting your drink, they can ask and they will do their best to accommodate. They also bring your drink to you once they finish making it. The place is quite a small shop, there is some seating inside and out. There is quite a large menu, so you definitely can find something that you would like. I would say that for me it was a bit sweeter than I would like, but it was still very delicious.

    Delicious boba drinks, you can get them in to a smoothie, teas, slushiest, and frappes or shakes. Definitely a must try. They also have these tasty and crunchy fishes and can get them with different fillings

    Went to Boba sound yesterday night (Monday) and had an amazing experience. The place is really cute -and small inside so not suitable for large parties to sit down just an fyi. But I love how there are so many suggestion boards for different drink combinations that I never would have thought of and they all sounded delicious. I had to try the Thai + Coconut and it was so unique and so delicious! My friends also loved theirs too but I can't remember what they got lol. All the staff was lovely and nice and the girl working the register and making our drinks (i unfortunately didn't catch her name) was amazing and so funny and she had great suggestions! We all agreed we would definitely have to come back real soon!

    We were somewhere nearby and the craving for boba hit. This was nearest. I looked up the menu and wanted the banana tea boba but it's not longer on the menu. D= It's ok because I ended up getting taro instead. It's was very good. The taro taste is really there. The owner was making fresh boba and tasting it when a customer came in so she said she had to eat it first before taking the order. Then followed up with It's very chewy so give me a moment. I have to agree it was chewy, soft and not too sweet. The drinks overall were not too sweet at all, which is great imo. I'd definitely come back. Also decided to get the cheese coin as a snack. I got pizza and it's definitely Asian pizza. It had corn and is on the sweeter side rather than being spicy or greasy. I still liked it. But just a heads up, it's hard to eat while driving because the cheese kept on going and going and going! Still fun tho.

    Thai coconut with coconut milk and boba!!! Tastes like the real deal! Tastes like the islands! New favorite!

    I am so glad I found Boba Sound!! Their varieties are actually good!! Try them out! I love their cinnamon tea with boba, my friend loved their hot jujube tea, and now I tried the Thai coconut with coconut milk with boba!! Tastes like the islands and the real deal!! Service is great! Great suggestions. I usually don't like the varieties because it's usually just another version of sugar and caramels but this place actually has different experiences!! Boba Sound has been the new spot since we found it!

    This is hands down the best boba shop in LA! The cinnamon ginger iced tea is my absolute favorite--refreshing and uniquely flavorful. The owners, a warm and gracious couple, always make every visit a delightful experience.

There are little tables, benches and stools if you decide to stay for a little bit. Parking situation varies. Both times I went, on Sundays, there were ample parking and no issues.

Two signs on the counter instructed patrons to not touch drinks and show their drink number upon pick up. The owner was super vigilant and responsive about the issues and I really appreciate that. I have had nothing but great experiences at the other 3cat locations like Arcadia and San Gabriel so I'm glad to see that Ktown is finally catching up.

For $25/$30, absolutely worth picking those up, especially as Godzilla's mug can emit 'smoke' via a separate dry ice compartment in his head. We skipped the sandwich, as it just looked like a Jersey Mike's sub but dyed green, and we weren't up for making our own ramen. Definitely keeping an eye on future events in the space!

I felt bad for the one lady making all the orders by herself. She was working as quickly as she could! I watched her for a little bit. She changed gloves often, keeping the ingredients separated. It wasn't long before I was taking my order to the table. I ordered two individual size bingsoos. One would have been ample for us to share. Each of them cost $8.50 and I got a side of Mochi for $2.25. This was some of the freshest Mochi topping I've had! Each piece was so super soft, even softer than marshmallows! They came in a condiment container so we could add them as we desired. Hubby's bingsoo was the Mango Melon and mine was the Mango. The shaved ice used was Mango for both. His had melon (Honeydew) balls and mine had mango chunks. This wasn't the best bingsoo I've had, but it was refreshing and made for a nice dessert! I thought I had been here before, but apparently not! I'm glad we finally got to come check it out!
