    Large parking lot. There's bench style seating inside. The staff member was super sweet. Cookies and Cream Smoothie - Chocolatey syrup at the bottom and super tasty. It definitely tastes like blended Oreos, and it's super creamy and well blended. I loved it! Strawberry Cloud - A little tangy but still sweet. It doesn't taste overly artificial. The sweet cream adds to the flavor. The perfect hot weather drink. I would definitely come back :)

    Back again. We love coming here after Costco. Today there was only one person working so there was a longer wait to order and getting our drinks. The Taro Monster was amazing!!! My boyfriend got the crème burlee and it wasn't very good. Still, we will come back.

I'm not sure if it's rebranded (2 years later) or a separate business since both names are active. The boba shop is located in Torrance Crossroads on the southeast side near Home Depot with plenty of parking spaces though I rarely nab one outside the entrance. The menus are similar with either the same names or renamed (e.g. Dragon Slayer renamed as Exotic Trio, Sunset Passion to Mango Chamoy). Initially, "born to rule" now they're touting a "bobahi(gh)." ;-) In the early days, the small lobby was packed with customers, not quite out the door but filled. Nowadays, there's more or less a small stream of customers no matter the time of day. On a few occasions, I'm the only customer, then others will follow before my order is filled. The menu hasn't changed much except for the specialty menu. Staff are friendly & welcoming... I usually get a greeting shout as soon as I enter; they're also quite expedient in executing my orders between 2 - 8 drinks. I like that they don't overfill the cups with ice or over sweeten the drinks, though I usually order mine's with less ice & sweetness. I mostly order from the specialty menu & occasionally a milk or fruit tea. I love the Exotic Trio on a hot day! Green Thai Milk Tea & Peach Princess are my norms... I'm a peach lover, but there's something about GTMT's pandan & vanilla, floral jasmine, & earthy notes that keeps me coming back again & again. BobaHi's menu consists of: specialty drinks; regular & protein smothies; milk, fruit, & fresh teas; yogurt drinks; coffees; with over a dozen topping options at 85¢ ea. & milk substitutes: oat, almond, or soy at 95¢. Price points are competitive in the South Bay, & BobaHi's are in-line albeit slightly lower with a bit more volume. There's minimal seating: a bench underneath the bobaHi wall mural & counter with 1/2 stools facing the parking lot. Since our local fav MTS has been under new ownership, we've been alternating BobaHi with a couple of neighbors at the plaza across the street & at Rolling Hills Plaza due to drink preferences. Whenever we're at In & Out, we usually detour over here for some boba instead of having a fountain drink... get boba hi(gh)! Recommended: Peach Princess & Green Thai Milk Tea (my favs!), Thai & Matcha Milk Teas (my hubby's picks), Exotic Trio & Summer Passion (M's go-tos), Strawberry Matcha Latte & Strawberry Yogurt (H's usuals).

    Came back on Saturday, 3/14/26. Perfect way to cool down on a hot day. We ordered the Exotic Trio and Brown sugar milk tea. The exotic trio was delicious with lycee, dragon fruit and mango flavors which are my favorites! My husband and I enjoyed our drinks. The only negative is that we wished they asked us the sweetness level we prefer. Our drinks were sweeter than we like. Nonetheless, we enjoyed them to the last sip! Service was friendly. Ambiance was cool. Definitely worth the try and we will be back!

    Trying new boba spots in my new city! This Thai iced tea wasn't my most favorite but it was decent. The tea was brewed really strong upon first sip it wasn't sweet. However, I went ahead and asked for more sweetener and it was better but not the best I've ever had. We also ordered the pineapple slushy which was a 5/5 good! The service was cool but nothing spectacular! I'll be back to try other drink options soon!

    One of the best Boba spot it's next to the Home Depot and Home goods when we go to the home goods or Home Depot always stop by there. I always like their coffee with boba.

    I ordered Summer Passion what a vibrant, tropical fusion of tart passion fruit balanced by green tea finish. My daughter ordered the Exotic Trio explosion of sweetness balanced by citrusy tang.

    First time here. Little biba place located in the Crossroads Center on Lomita and Crenshaw. Parking's can be a little crazy as it is a busy parking lot but lots of parking. Upon entering, I was greeted with a smile and immereceived service. service. The young woman was very nice, offered recommendations and explained a few of the drinks to me to help me make my decision. I decided to stick with my go-to since this was a new place for me. I went with a Taro Milk Tea with Boba. Very refreshing, a tad pricey for the size but good. Seemed to be a popular place, there was a solid flow of customers that came through.

    This was our first time here & my kids loved it. So many to choose from & all seemed so delicious. The workers were very friendly & the service was exceptional. My son loved the chocolate milk tea with boba, so bad that he was craving that same flavor the next day. It was the perfect encouragement to finish homework asap as a good reward. Lol

    One of the best boba shops in the South Bay due to their consistency in making good drinks! The people working here are always friendly, and do a great job handling orders while taking care of any questions or recommendations. While the shop is small, it offers a cozy atmosphere with its bar seating at the table along the window. It's perfect for a quick matcha or delish strawberry drink! I usually like to complement my boba with a donut from Old Ferry Donut next door!

    I think this was the Summer Passion With passion fruit green tea and dragonfruit and I switched the crystal jelly to the lychee jelly

    Went at 11am today for the first time. Really enjoyed my drink. Asked the young lady to leave the top off so I could pour it into my reusable cup. Which she did and I thought that was great! I loved that the drink wasn't sweet. Which I can't take the overly sweet drinks.

    My friend and I was looking to get boba after having dinner in the area and I came across this spot which looked appealing. I love the speciality drink options they have & the menu wasn't too hard to look at/navigate compared to other boba places. I got the taro monster bc i'm a taro/oreo fan and it was pretty good, I would say 8/10; the oreo was a bit overpowering the taro. My friend got the banana milk tea which was a 10/10, reminds me of a banana cream top whenever I get a matcha latte lol I would definitely come back to try new drinks!

    Are the milk teas made with creamer or milk?

    I believe it's made with milk, but you do have options for milk choices. Just ask the cashier. I think there's soy, oat and almond milk.

    Do they provide a number to call because I can't see one on the page...?

I tried the chrome and banana lattes and I felt the banana wasn't overly sweet, I really liked the cold foam on the chrome one too! The coffee was pretty solid, the baristas were all friendly as well. My only issue with this cafe is that the line wrapped around the store, but the only menu faced the door away from the line or right up at the counter. When waiting that long, I feel it helps to actually see the menu before I order and wish it was more accessible. The one menu on the wall was not the full menu just the featured drinks which was somewhat helpful.

The parking lot is pretty small, but we got lucky and snagged a spot right up front. I love the decor and theme of this cafe. Everything is flight-themed, which makes the space feel so cute and unique. The menu is also pretty big, and there were so many drinks that caught our attention. We ended up ordering the Jasmine Matcha Cloud and Earl Grey Matcha. The Jasmine Matcha Cloud was amazing and easily my favorite of the two. I'd probably get it a little less sweet next time if possible, but even at the regular sweetness, I really enjoyed it. The Earl Grey Matcha wasn't bad either, but it wasn't particularly memorable for me and was also a little sweeter than I prefer. Overall, I really enjoyed First Flight Coffee. I'd definitely come back for the Jasmine Matcha Cloud and to work my way through some of the other drinks on their menu!

You can tell they put a lot of effort into their food and drinks. As for the ambiance, it's perfect for those who want to hang out and catch up with friends/family or to study. When I visited, there were easily 5 other groups and individuals studying here. I have a big soft spot for banana flavored items. A BIG SOFT SPOT. Banana Cream Pie Latte - this one carries the biggest punch for banana lovers. Banana cream the entire way from start to finish. Not too sweet. Awesome foam top too. I highly recommend drinking these without the straw. Foam top drinks are best appreciated when you get a nice 50:50 ratio of the foam and drink. Banana Matcha Latte - the name speaks for itself. It's a nice mixture of both. So if you're looking to feel a little healthier with the matcha element, then go for it. This was probably the prettiest drink of the 3 that we had. Americano - delicious and got the job done here. I naturally enjoy Ethiopian and Colombian beans. I brew them often at home. I was definitely wide awake after these drinks lol Strawberrynana Waffle - If you LOVE belgian-style waffles like me, then you'll find yourself ordering this again and again. It wasn't too sweet but sweet enough to easily go through 2 or 3 of these plates if you're crazy enough. Banana Walnut Honey Bread - the best for last! I really loved eating brick toast growing up. There were so many stores back in the day that sold them, and now I can't find them as easily. In fact, Caffe Bene is the only place in the South Bay that I know that sells them. This one brought me back to the past and put a gigantic smile on my face. Delicious, perfectly sweet, balanced, and finished wanting more. Highly recommend!

La Cha x The Bowl currently has a second location in Hawthorne in addition to this flagship location in Torrance. The shop is known for its viral cracking chocolate shell boba cup. [Parking]: Easy parking within the plaza. [Atmosphere]: A very casual setup for this tea shop and customers can place their orders via one of two kiosks. One thing to note is that the tea shop plays fairly loud background music so it is hard to have a conversation unless you are sitting right next to the person you are talking to. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Strawberry Matcha W/ Milk Foam, Strawberry Taro Milk Tea, and Caramel Cheese Latte. Other featured items include Popcorn Chicken, Biscoff Shake, and Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. *** Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea (100% sweetness - $6.20): The drink was slightly too sweet for me, but the overall flavor was there. Chicken Teriyaki Bowl (Charbroiled Chicken Teriyaki + comes with white rice, chopped lettuce, macaroni salad and grilled fresh pineapple - $13.90): The bowl was surprisingly better than I had expected. The bowl had a slice of grilled pineapple and decent macaroni salad. I was actually able to split the bowl into two smaller meal portions. It was certainly a lot better than the teriyaki bowl from Flame Broiler. *** A solid 3.5-star for the drink and rice bowl. I personally slightly prefer their rice bowl over their drinks and overall this is a nice neighborhood tea shop to grab a quick meal or get a-okay drinks as there aren't too many tea shop options in this part of Torrance (closer to the city of Carson).
