This is my favorite boba place! My family knows we have to stop when we're in the area. The boba is fresh and there is a variety of flavors to choose from. Taro is my go to. read more

Class 302 Cafe - Downey - Taiwanese Near Me - Downey, California

Not bad but the quality of the milk tea isn't as good as the ones where they make the drink for you. This place is more of a concept where you can make your milk tea yourself as well as get some food. Try their popcorn chicken and their jasmine milk tea. The interior reminds me of the other branches around SoCal but takes away the feel of an actual restaurant. Still, good service and good food. read more

Vegetarian review. The combos here are very well worth it. You choose a rice or a noodle base and you add a side to it, like popcorn chicken, pork chops, fried mushrooms, etc. It's nice since I usually have to get a fried rice and then a fried mushroom separately, and it costs more. More than fair amount of food. Service is a bit off putting. Not friendly or particularly helpful. My first time here, I had to dig around for info on how the combos worked, but they're not terrible. Downside (or upside if you don't care): you can't adjust the sweetness in your teas. I guess you just add unsweetened tea to the cup and that works? It's a fill-your-own cup (same for toppings) kind of a place. Fill, and hand it to them to cap. read more

The quality of food is not consistent I ordered the same thing and the pork chop overflowed the box you can't even close it. However the first two pieces I bite into pure fat only plus the potatoe starch coating. The meat were thin, and the bone is huge. I would order something else next time read more

So many options for drinks. I love being able to try the different flavors. The bacon fried rice is the best!

This has a great concept! Self serve from toppings to your personal tea choices.They also offer food options which I will be back to try smelled delicious as all the food was coming out! Taro milk tea and regular milk tea were amazing also got pudding on my drink. Customer service is quick and friendly they are always busy on weekends but the line is constantly moving. I def will continue to make this a go to boba place. read more

I really like this build your own Boba bar spot. You can also get different foods. Staff is really nice and you can try samples of the beverages before you get one. read more

Stopped by for shaved ice. Turns out they stopped serving it a few years back. We were really bummed but decided to check out their boba since we were already there. Pretty cool concept-you get your cup, fill it with boba, then fill it up with your choice of drink, add some toppings, and then return to the counter to get it sealed. We tried their mango mix slush and were not disappointed. However, might opt of the boba next time and only stick with the jellies. read more

Ordered the sausage fried rice which I thought was good. Was really bummed to find out they don't sell shaved snow at this location. I actually went specifically for that. They have a tiny note on the plexiglass when you order. I feel it can be better announced as the walls still have the outdated menus in chalk and print. read more

I used to LOVE coming here with friends & family, but now avoid like the plague. The charm of this place is the cute decor which is now faded to some scuff marks on the floor and self-serve toppings which I'm starting to get concerned about after a recent trip. I came with my boyfriend and I got my usual, the strawberry shake option. Immediately after tasting it, I could tell it was rancid. It tasted awful, like rotten milk & strawberries. His choice of iced coffee was not an improvement either. It tasted burnt & rancid as well. I don't know if this is a cleanliness issue or genuinely an ingredients problem, but I am never spending money here again after getting two awful drinks. I've also seen machines be out of service so often it seems like they are never maintained or fixed. If the juices & coffee taste rotten, how fresh are the self-serve ingredients? The service is unremarkable. I was given a new cup to replace my nasty drink and I got the peach tea which tasted fine, but you only have to drink rotten strawberry juice once to put you off a place forever. This place desperately needs a paint job and more upkeep, because the quality of drinks is suffering and it's very obvious as a repeating customer. I have never tried the food and I probably wouldn't after having bad luck with the drinks. Skip this place and go to Boba Time or 7 Leaves instead. read more

I just had a pork & chicken ramen here!!! they were both fantastic! I loved the pork bone broth as it was super rich with flavor. I didn't get her name, but the girl working the counter with really cool black and blond hair was so sweet and helpful. She actually recommended my entire meal and told me about a couple local breweries as well. She was what made my experience worth while. Can't wait to go back again! I wanta try the popcorn chicken and stay for a beer there! read more

Sam was super friendly and had an amazing personality and smile. I asked like 100 questions, and she was great at her customer service. I would definitely go back. Sam made it a great experience for me. Thanks, Sam thank you for making my food experience exceptionally cool . read more

Really liked the concept of building your own boba drink. First time going here. We made the mistake of filling our cup with the tea instead of adding the toppings first. We spilt our tea when we added the toppings in the end. So sorry to the staff! read more

Class 302 Cafe - Downey - Left is 1/3 matcha, milk tea, rose milk tea. Right..bubba doesn't remember. - Taiwanese Near Me - Downey, California

I'm a big fan of the whole Class 302 concept: self-serve boba? Yes, please! I've been to multiple locations, but last Friday was my first time trying this one. I got a regular sized boba cup and decided to put in some boba, aloe jelly, and mix two milk teas: honey milk tea and rose milk tea. It was such a delicious mix. The boba was definitely a bit chewy for my taste, which is sometimes a problem with the boba at Class 302. I suppose you sacrifice quality for quantity. Personally, I feel like it's hard to go somewhere and get a milk tea with a good ratio of boba in it. It seems as though there is never enough boba, which is why I like going to Class 302, where I can make my cup my own and add boba to my heart's desire. read more

My husband and I tried this location for the first time. I frequent this new promenade plaza so the parking situation was not a surprise. It gets busy like any other populated plaza during peaks hours and weekends. I forgot how limited the food selections are and quickly remembered why I stopped coming. The drill is pretty simple 1) but a cup 2) full it up with things you want...boba, pudding, jelly and your choice of icy, tea, specialty milk or coffee 3) seal it at the counter. My boba milk tea with added ingredients was good but how could I not like it?! I was the one who made it. The popcorn chicken is what I came for and it was delicious. I would safely say it is the closest popcorn chicken that tastes like the ones I had in Taiwan. Cashier is efficient. Not much room for a line to form so it does get crowded; especially the yogurt land style drink dispensing area. *glad they take plastic. I remember the Cerritos location used to be cash only. Not sure if that had changed lately. Drink dispensing and added ingredients bar is kept clean and presentable. read more

I've been coming here for about 7 years. Unfortunately, the quality in service and their food has significantly depleted throughout the years. I brought my co workers for lunch last week and give this place another try. Unfortun, I was ended up embarrassed that the experience was not what it's been before. They ordered fried rice, spicy miso udon, beef soup, and popcorn chicken. The chicken was dry, hard, and honestly wouldn't eat it myself. The fried rice was sad looking as it was literally rice with an excess of egg. Both soups lacked flavor. The only thing enjoyable was the self served boba. Probably will not be returning again. Suoer disappointed at how the owners have let this place go. read more

Very tasty! The broth of the soups was very good. I prefer rice noodles but this one had egg noodles but still good. Wish I was more hungry to have finished it all.

I used to like it till the new cashier started working there If the cashier doesn't like you she'll say the kitchen is closed when you try to order even tho the person behind you orders noodles and chicken literally no shame just an attitude read more

Stopped in at lunchtime and ordered a meal combo: fried rice and popcorn chicken. Also ordered a medium-sized drink. The lone fellow at the counter asked me several questions regarding spiciness and who-knows-what but his whispery-quiet voice and the competing sound system music had me saying "what?" an annoying number of times. There are only 4 or 5 tables inside which were already full so my friend and I found ourselves grabbing the last available outdoor table of which there are few. The drinks are self-serve; choose from a number of options of milk tea and coffee drinks. I chose the almond milk tea and added some boba from the variety of add-ons and toppings they offer. After about 5 minutes our pager went off and I went inside to get our trays of food. I thought both the popcorn chicken and fried rice (with various veggies) were okay. Honestly, even below average. Have you ever had 4 or 5 bites of something and then were just over it? That's how I felt with these dishes. Eating this food brought me no joy. On the other hand, the almond milk tea was uber-fantastic! Great almond flavor, cool and refreshing. If I were to ever return it would be solely for the milk tea. 2 stars for the food and 4 for the milk tea. read more

Class 302 Cafe - Downey - The best soup ever for this weather !!!! - Taiwanese Near Me - Downey, California

I love the milk tea at Class 302. Class 302 has a cool and unique set up. When you order you tell them what size of cup you would like. Then you go and fill it up yourself. The cups are more like tubs which is cool but they don't fit in my cars cup holders. First stop is the boba / toppings station. The boba is in a warm vat of honey syrup which keeps the boba nice and fresh. There is also a toppings station which has different flavored puddings, jellys and bobas. Next is all the drink stations. They have a lot of teas and a few slushes. Check my pictures out to see them all. Once you have filled your cup up you bring it back to them and they heat seal it for you. One thing that sucks about 302 is that the Thai tea is only in slush form. read more

We got the boba and the convenience of the self serve is really nice. Being able to try the flavors before buying is always nice and choosing your own toppings is plus. All for one set price and not by weight is great read more

If this is your first time going to class 302 at Downey, it's different from the other class 302 because this place let's you pick out your own toppings and teas. The settings for the toppings is almost like a buffet style where you can scoop up different types of boba, jellys, pudding, and etc. Don't forget to ask for sample cups if you don't know what kind of flavored teas or milk teas you want. I haven't tried their food yet here but I will go for a drink. There's plenty of parking spaces. The wait for a parking space during busy hours is not that long. You'll see people come and go. read more

4.8 out out of 5 Ordered around 9:10pm through DoorDash and it arrived within 25-minutes..... Super Fast! 1) Excellent tasting Popcorn Chicken 2)Their Taro Boba is fantastic 3) I did Not enjoy their garlic sausage for some reason... it should have been cooked more along with the garlic...... Final complaint, my order did NOT come with any dipping sauce for their popcorn chicken..... luckily I always carry Thai sweet chile dipping sauce so I enjoyed the meal :) I look forward to ordering form here again and I will be trying out their Salmon Friend Rice :) read more

My stars are for the DIY drinks. Selection is very small compared to other places so make sure you're able to drink the listed flavors before coming. You buy the cup size and fill up your cup with toppings/liquids and have them seal it up when you're done. They have sample cups! Perfect for those who don't want to end up regretting what they got. A huge minus for me was everything was way too sweet. I love my sugar level at 20%, everything here was your typical 100%+ sweetness. It was almost like I was drinking sugar water/milk but I can still taste the tea flavor for some of them which was a plus at least. I didn't try the smoothies. I wish we were able to adjust our own sweetness though. What a bummer but for someone like me who has specifics and always customizes everything I order, than this is a perfect place to not have to deal with my B.S. =) . Overall, I would recommend this place if you're looking for basic flavors and unlimited toppings. Price is extremely reasonable also. @makeMePrettie highly recommend. Just don't be too picky. It gets the job done. read more

The boba was ok but they have really cute cups There sea food soup was amazing it was okay overall read more

TIP: PARKING IS GLORIOUS. BIG PARKING SPACE, WITH TONS OF SPACE! BYOB: No this doesn't stand for BRING YOUR OWN BOTTLE, it stands for BUILD YOUR OWN BOBA (DRINK). YES YOU HEARD RIGHT. How did I not know such a place existed? Honestly, I don't know. I've attached photos for you guys to look at in case you are a visual person-but basically they have this tea buffet. You order a drink and they give you a medium or large size cup, you walk around to the left and there is like a TOPPINGS SALAD BAR. Boba, jellys, etc. Add as much as you want! Then keep going and you'll see rows and rows of teas-milk teas, jasmine tea, fruit flavored teas, etc. You can mix and match! When you're done, return to the front and the cashier will close the drink for you. FOODS: TAIWANESE BEEF NOODLE SOUP: I know they are known for their Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup and I'm not sure if I went on a bad day, but it felt like they just dumped three full cans of salt into the broth and called it a day. IT WAS SO SALTY! Not just salty to a point where a little bit of hot water can help, but salty to the point where it's on par with sea water. I'm not saying don't order this b/c apparently everyone else loved it, but I'm saying be warned. SPICY WONTON NOODLE SOUP: Now this...was delicious. 9/10 would recommend. The broth was so flavorful and delicious, and you'll want to slurp it up! The only thing I found weird was that inside of the wontons, I could still taste the flour. When I cut one open I saw that there was some flour residue on the inside...not sure if this was done on purpose or not, but it gave the wonton an "not fully cooked yet" taste-I wasn't feeling. SERVICE AND PRICING: This isn't the cheapest place to grab a bite or drink, and there are a lot of other similar boba joints that will save some money in your wallet. However, I can't say that I love going here only because I know that the food is consistent and it's delicious. Service is good! The cashier is nice, just make sure to let her know it's your first time and she'll help you out. read more

I tried this place out today as I wanted something soupy and warm so I bought the house noddle special I believe that's what it was called it had pork, boil egg and noodles among other ingredients now let me say this dish had no flavor regardless of what they put in it and the hot sauce I added the pork had no taste and had the texture similar to tofu.. to be honest I just couldn't eat it had to throw it away the money spent on the dish was not worth it now hopefully I'll buy some boba from this place in the near future maybe and hope it's good. Now this is my own personal experience and review on this food place. Don't let my review stop you from trying this place out maybe your experience will be a positive one. read more

I've wanted to love this place very badly because of the awesome employees I've met but sadly that's not nearly enough to give this place a 4 Star. I've been here over a dozen times and have tried various drinks and every single food plate they have. I'll begin with the bad Basically it's Taiwanese style street food which I love. The issue is that they load it up with tons of MSG or whatever flavor enhancer they might be using. I'm not highly sensitive to msg but I could definitely tell when a large amount of it is being used by how bloated and sick I feel after having it. Regardless the plates are not amazing but good. I would highly recommend the salmon fried rice. Onto the Tea The selections and the amount of customization is pretty great. The teas aren't all that great though. It's just average. My friends and I have wish the teas came cold straight out of the fountain so We wouldn't have to load it up with ice but that might be yet another business practice to save money. read more
