    Overall a solid boba place. The menu had a lot of options of drinks and toppings. They do not have hot options and the ice is small so it comes through the straw when drinking. But overall flavor was good and the service was really fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute neon sign too![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    BobaLust is our go-to spot for boba in Tacoma. It's located in a nice area, close to shopping and has a large parking lot adjacent. We have yet to find a drink we haven't liked. From the chamoy-mango slushee to the taro milk tea, it is all delicious. If it sounds good to you, most likely you'll love it. The interior has limited seating. It's not a great place to come and study, etc, because of that. They could definitely re-structure dead space and make it more friendly to guests staying, but maybe their business model doesn't work like that! We love BobaLust. :)

    Had a great Yelp elite experience here. The menu is extensive and lots of great choices. You can customize the drink as well. I got the taro milk tea with grass jelly. The drinks were made great and tasted good. The staff was very nice and friendly. There is some seating in the boba shop. There is a good amount of parking in the complex. I would come to this boba shop again and highly recommend these guys.

    I go to BobaLust frequently and the quality never changes. My favorite is the Lychee bomb! All of their drinks are pretty good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff are nice and there's plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would recommend!

    I had the opportunity to check out this Tacoma location last week. They have lots of fun and customizable drinks. The best part of the experience was the cashier asked if I wanted dairy free options. I had never been asked that before at a boba shop. A pleasant surprise! My tummy appreciate the DF option. I didn't know BobaLust had a second location in Tacoma. So that was a cool surprise.

    Great boba this was our first time here and it didn't disappoint. Would definitely recommend

    Blue Lagoon & Electric Sky

    SERVICE: 5/5 This was my first time at Bobalust. My friends and I came here after getting dinner because we were craving some drinks. The employee was patient with us while we were deciding and even answered any questions we had. One of my friends is allergic to mango and they made sure to remove the mango toppings. DRINK: 4/5 I got the Blue Lagoon with 50% sweetness and light ice. The drink was pretty, refreshing, and a bit on the sweet side even though I ordered 50% sweetness. Since I prefer more tea flavor, I will come order 25% sweetness next time I come back to compare. I also like how you can add or change the toppings to the drink. PARKING: 5/5 There is a parking lot with plenty of spaces. It was easy to find an open spot during a weekday night.

    I have tried boba shops, chain and independently owned, up and down the I-5 corridor, from Woodinville to Portland. I have a very good sense of taste/smell and all too often detect a bitter aftertaste in boba milk teas. I would rank this shop at 3rd place amongst all that I've tried. No bitter aftertaste! Perfect sweetness level. Only outdone by two shops, in my opinion, because the dairy product they use doesn't have that perfect creamy taste. All in all, pretty good! Will return whenever I am in the area. Service was friendly and SUPER fast! In and out of the shop in under 5 minutes total. Faster than most places with drive-through service.

    Electric Sky and Legend of Momo

    This place was pretty good. We don't typically like our drinks sweet and usually get 25-30% sweet but unfortunately the lowest this offered was 50% sweet. So of course it was very sweet for us. We got the Legend of Momo and Electric Sky, which were fairly similar drinks but still both pretty good. I could still see myself coming back again though!

    Menu and a bit of decor.

    Boba was good I was expecting a bit more from all these reviews but the service was really quick and [[HIGHLIGHT]]they definitely need to add more decor the area inside feels so empty[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Summer sass.
    Jin K.

    Stumbled along this place and thought I would get myself a drink on a mid humid day. Anyways I got a drink called Summer sass, which consists chunks of oranges and mango. It was pretty refreshing. I'd come back

    Legend of Momo
    TC B.

    Stopped in for boba with Sharon. We ordered the Legend of Momo for each of us. The service was very friendly and prompt. They got right on our order. Perusing the menu while we waited they have great looking offerings. Tea was ready super fast. The Legend of Momo is delicious. Highly recommend BobaLust!

    Samuel V.

    One of the best boba places we've found in Washington! Staff was quick. Toppings were a great serving size and flavor was awesome!!

    Supposed to be a purple galaxy but they didn't put any Oreo in it at all.

So happy that I don't have to drive to Federal Way anymore for a bubble waffle! Before they only had one flavor, but now they added chocolate and oreo.. Sometimes I do half original and half chocolate and get a side of the oreo puff cream. The location has a few tables inside and even have games you can play which are near the spot you place your order. I like that they give you a sturdy bad for you togo drinks and not the flimsy cardboard. Tbh, service was nothing out of the ordinary.

They have a great selection of unique and interesting combinations that I haven't seen elsewhere, such as the Strawberry Hendrix and the Froot Loop. They also serve traditional milk tea, and you can fully customize your drink with a variety of syrups, fill ins, and toppings. Other drinks include coffee, fruit tea, and lemonade. If you're lactose intolerant they have almond milk, coconut milk, lactose free milk, soy milk, and oat milk! (Cost): $10.92 + tip (Location): The interior is beautifully decorated and while not that big, there are quite a few places to sit. It's near a normally busy shopping area that has a Target, Walmart, Crumbl, and etc. There is plenty of parking. The area is decently safe. (Service): Great, the employee greeted me right away and gave me my online order-- which was thankfully completed farrr earlier than the 40 minute eta on Doordash. (Food): King Brulee Milk Tea (5/5)-- I added extra boba, extra caramel drizzle, changed the milk to soy, and requested no ice ($1) . This was exactly the sugar rush that I wanted and the boba was the perfect consistency. I loved everything about this drink. I was super hungry before drinking it, but I ended up being full for several hours after doing so!

When they first opened they were highly popular and there was quite a line in order to receive service. So I waited for the newness to wear off. Once that happened I swung by here and got a very fine boba tea. I picked the Taro flavor and liked it very much. The chewy tapioca balls were great...I always love getting those and fishing around for any stragglers once the main drink is finished. I try to get as many as I can when I'm starting out and in the middle but I usually have a fair amount left. They don't take cash. I'm not sure if that's a permanent policy or if it was a issue that they were having at the time so best be prepared with more than one payment option.
