Came here today for the first time since I was close by I decided to stop in…read more Customer service was excellent, the girl who took my order was very friendly and helpful when I told her it was my first time. I ordered the strawberry lychee black iced tea based on her recommendation. It was pretty good, but I wouldn't say it's outta this world. It's a little too sweet, maybe I should have ordered it with 75% sweetness. Inside the place is spacious but there is zero seating. There are a few standing tables and that's it. Outside there are only 2 small tables with two chairs. I would say this place is 3.5 due to the lack of seating. I like hanging out at coffee shops and enjoy sitting and relaxing, and you can't really do that here. I guess this is more of a to go place, but for me that's what Starbucks is for.

My favorite spot for matcha soft serve. The combination of the rich matcha and creamy vanilla is…read moreperfectly balanced, and the quality has been consistently great every time I've visited. I also appreciate that they rotate seasonal flavors like ube and hojicha, which keeps me coming back to try something new. While I agree with other reviews that the prices are on the higher side, I think it's worth it for the quality and flavor. If you're a matcha fan, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try. It's easily my go-to spot for matcha soft serve.

I've been here a few times, and the matcha ice cream is always good--it's around $7 and definitely…read moreworth trying. I also ordered the banana matcha latte once, but it came out to almost $10 after tax, which felt pretty pricey for what you get. The vibe is very much grab-and-go, though there is a nice outdoor seating area if you want to hang out for a bit. If you're craving matcha ice cream, I'd recommend stopping by--just be prepared for the higher prices.

Upon arrival, there is a nice mural of Brea/OC are on the right side. Definitely gives the store a…read morenice vibe to it. The seating area is limited and can only accommodate up to around 12 people. Service was quick. However, I was coming at a time where there isn't a rush. I ended up getting a Hokkaido Oolong Milk Tea. Their drink does run on the sweeter side so I opted for 25% sweetness with grass jelly.

Luckily, the line at this location wasn't too bad. They have an online order system, so even though there was no one in line at the ordering kiosk, lots of orders are coming in. I really enjoyed their Mulberry Boom which has a strong mulberry flavor and even pieces of mulberry fruit inside! Just be careful not to spill, since the color of the mulberry is pretty concentrated and will most likely stain your clothes! The Cloud Coconut Blue is a really pretty layered drink! They use blue spirulina for that vibrant blue color. There's also matcha blended with their original cheese cloud, along with coconut water, coconut milk, and coconut milk jelly. Definitely for coconut lovers! Mango Grapefruit Boom is one of their recommended. It's refreshing, slightly milky, and has a bit of bitterness from the grapefruit. I haven't had a drink like this before, so if was definitely unique! The Grape Boom is a pretty purple color, and you can really taste the grape flavor! Very refreshing. Parking in the lot out front or in the underground parking structure. You can to take the stairs or elevator to get to the second floor where the shop is located. A few seats inside and some tables and chairs outside on their patio as well.

Cloud Coconut Blue (4/10): For how expensive this drink was, it was pretty disappointing. I did not…read morelike the coconut flavor of the drink. The matcha cream added 4 points to the score because it was pretty good, but that was the only good thing about the drink. After mixing the matcha foam in, there was no matcha flavor in the drink. The boba is okay, nothing special to mention though. Cloud Matcha Latter (6/10): There was a nice matcha flavor, but not strong enough. The matcha flavor was not very unique or did not taste very high quality. The original cheese cloud on top was light and tangy, which tasted decent. Coconut Mango Boom (4/10): The drink tasted super watered down with barely any coconut flavor present. The mango was decent, but once the drink was mixed, the mango flavor diminished. I wish the mango flavor was a little stronger. Overall Thoughts: These drinks are definitely not worth how much I paid for it. I wish I got the supreme matcha latte instead of the cloud coconut blue. The drinks were pretty disappointing, and there are many other boba shops with better drinks at fairer price points. There might be a small line to order. The wait time took pretty long. The boba shop itself is very white, lit up, and simple. There are very few seats in the shop, but there are more tables and chairs outside. I expected a lot more from these drinks because they looked so pretty, yummy, and expensive, but it unfortunately did not taste as good as it looks.

The place itself was very clean, and the staff are helpful when ordering or they double check if there is an issue with your order.

Roasted Oolong is my personal favorite :)

Tapiochi is definitely the highlight of this boba shop! Super tender chewy jelly, have to try the…read morebrown sugar one. The black tea tapiochi doesn't really have any flavor but the brown sugar tapiochi has the distinct roasted taste, which adds more character to the popcorn milk tea. So I got the popcorn milk tea and I feel like that's the only thing I only want from them now. It's a strong toasty tea blend with rich creamy buttery popcorn flavor, tastes just like a cereal milk or almost like a corn milk! A small but cozy hangout spot with some minimal aesthetic decors, it was half packed with teens and adults around 8pm on a Sunday but plenty parking outside. Service was fast and nice. Only complain I have is that this small cup of drink does not really worth $9 to me. They do have some other interesting teas but the price is just little shocking to me.

The tapiochi added a nice texture to the drink. 3/10 The Matcha Einspanner is very good, although I wish it was a little creamier and a little sweeter to balance out the strength of the matcha. 8/10 The Creme Brulee IceMilk with brown sugar tapiochi is one of my favorite drinks to get! The creme brulee top is super tasty, and goes super well with the tapiochi. It can definitely be a little sweet, so you might want to adjust the sweetness. 9/10 The Osmanthus Citrus Refresher is my all-time favorite drink! The osmanthus flavor is so refreshing in the hotter months, and the citrus adds a nice touch to the tea. 10/10 The staff at all of the Torotea locations are super friendly, and are always willing to give recommendations. The interior is super cute, with a minimalist cave-like design.

Attended a family birthday party last April 2026. We were a big group (3 tables, party of 8-10 per table) & was served a sumptuous, delicious multi-course meal.

Sadly and surprisingly, the restaurant closed! We were hoping to return but alas!

A big party reserved a section of the restaurant, and our server notified us that the kitchen was busy. Their deals also seemed to attract many others. We ordered dishes, including chicken chow mein, mustard greens with black mushrooms, and braised bean curd with brown sauce. We got the vegetable dishes first along with a complimentary soup. The braised bean curd with brown sauce was part of their discounted small-sized order menu. For a party of three, the portion size was adequate. All of the dishes tasted good, but they unfortunately forgot our chicken chow mein. We initially gave them the benefit of the doubt that they were busy preparing food for other tables. However, we later found that they forgot the dish after following up with them. While the noodles tasted good as usual, the chicken did taste bland. This restaurant isn't usually busy, so I think that day was an exception due to them accommodating a big party.

Unlike some boba shops where you have to wait in long lines just to order, there wasn't a long wait here, so it was easy to get my drink and be on my way.

I'll definitely be coming back!

Although there's practically no tables, it's more of a order and go type place. Most times I visited, I had absolutely no wait at all, although I heard that during peak hours it gets pretty busy due to how busy the plaza is. My wife and I visited during lunch on a weekend and it was no wait whatsoever. Easily placed our orders and it was about a 5-10 minute wait for our drinks, very nice overall. Staff is friendly and quick which is always nice to see for a tea shop. They have plenty of options to go around, usually they'll have a sample for you to try which is nice if you can't decide on your drink choice. I absolutely love the mango or lemon condensed milk series, it's a mix of yakult style drinks on top of a bit more of a gushy feeling when you're sipping. Mix that with a bit of kick and you have the perfect drink for a hot day. Absolutely recommend trying it. Overall, a well maintained shop, although can get really packed during the peak hours, it's absolutely worth checking their store out. Very high quality drinks, consistent across all San Chen locations and definitely my choice of tea shop whenever my wife and I are in the area.

It was so big that the three of us had to finish the whole bowl as a family. The toppings and soft ice were good, but the syrup made it too sweet. The workers only speak Taiwanese, unless you can order in Mandarin and point out what you want to eat. There are a few seats available for a small shop. They should have a bigger trash bin since it was already overfilled. Overall, it's a great place to try out their Taiwanese shaved ice inside the plaza.

Overall, everything lacked flavor, although I will say the red salsa served with the chips was delicious. My friend ordered the avocado toast, but it was basically just a slice of bread with sliced avocado--no seasoning, condiments, or anything to make it stand out. The small garden salad was equally underwhelming, consisting of only romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes with no dressing or even a drizzle of olive oil. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, but they were more like open-faced boiled eggs since the yolks were completely hard instead of runny. The café de olla had a nice flavor, but it was much sweeter than expected. I think it would be better if they served it unsweetened (or lightly sweetened) and let customers adjust the sugar to their own taste. I really wanted to enjoy this place because the ambiance is so charming, but the food just didn't live up to the experience.
