I came back a few months after their grand opening on a Monday afternoon and was happy with my drink. Strawberry milk tea w/ golden boba - 11/10, I loved this so much and the soft boba really made it great! Compared to last time my drink is cold and tasted delicious :) They have stamp cards as well and the prices are good. Service was great, I will definitely stop by again! read more

The service here is amazing - always friendly and attentive! The ambiance is clean and welcoming, making it a great spot to meet with friends or get some remote work done. Plus, parking is easy, which is always a bonus. I usually order the jasmine milk tea with 70% sugar and boba - so refreshing! I probably stop by once a week for my boba fix. read more

I've been coming here nearly every day for 100 days straight, and I can honestly say this shop is more than just a place to get great boba--it feels like home. The owner and staff always greet me with kindness and positivity, and they've treated me not just like a customer, but like a friend. Of course, the drinks themselves are amazing (I usually go for the taro milk tea or the chocolate milk tea--both are consistently delicious), but what keeps me coming back is the genuine warmth and hospitality. Every visit, I leave with not just a drink in hand, but also a smile on my face. It's rare to find a place that combines quality drinks with such heartfelt service. If you're looking for a spot that truly cares about its customers, I can't recommend this place enough. read more

Decent boba shop! We came here today and it wasn't busy; I hope this changes because the drinks here are much better compared to that disgusting boba shop that used to be here (Busy Boba). The people behind the counter were friendly! The drinks were nice,flavorful, and cool (we got cold drinks). They have hot drinks here as well! But because they just opened, they don't have blended drinks like other Ding Tea shops. Anyway, I'll continue to support this place! read more

Came in after work at a rather busy time this afternoon (Tuesday) it would seem with high school coming out. The line was was long but moved swiftly as the girl up front was taking orders and quickly sticking stickers on cups and putting tickets on the wall for a quick set up for the woman behind making the drinks all with a smile on her face, the two were very in sync despite the rush- I let her know they looked like a mother- daughter duo. She recommended the brown sugar milk tea because it had caffeine and just the perfect amount of sugar, and I am sure glad she did. The 25% off this week was icing on the cake. I've been waiting for this place to open and from the service given and drink I had today, the wait was well worth it! read more

For mochi doughnut I give them three out of five it's not really memorable, but it's also not that bad. For their Boba tea, I will give them four out of five.

The pho was similarly underwhelming, featuring a broth that lacked depth and didn't stand out to the palate. The highlight of the meal was the salt and pepper calamari, which easily stood out as the best dish we tried. That said, at $15, the portion size was on the smaller side. The service is normal and the calamari is tasty, but with the lack of climate control and forgettable mains, I'd probably only ever return just for the calamari. It's an A-ok place overall and quite expensive for small portions.

For anyone who enjoys cute aesthetics along with their coffee, this place is perfect…read more You can't tell from the outside, but inside it's a nice coffee shop with a cool black and white 2D looking space in the back. You order at the counter and they give you a buzzer to let you know when your order is ready. I've been here a couple of times and the service is usually pretty quick. They serve different coffees and teas as well as some food like toasts, empanadas and other breakfast items. Recently I had an Iced Pumpkin Matcha ($7.25/16 oz) and Pumpkin Bagel ($7.25). The matcha tasted more cinnamon than matcha but it wasn't bad. The pumpkin bagel is shaped like an adorable pumpkin but doesn't taste like pumpkin. They put a good amount of pumpkin cream cheese in it though. It was fun to try but I wouldn't get it again for the price. It's a cool coffee shop that serves some unique seasonal items. Check them out if you're looking for something different than your typical coffee shop.

I've got strawberry milk tea for the first time and it's delicious! Planning to try new flavor each time.

A Tea 7 has a really extensive menu, which was the first thing that stood out to me. They have a…read moreSpecialteas section where every drink comes in one preset size (large) with the toppings already picked out. There's also a Limited Series, a coffee series, plus all the classic milk teas, fruit teas, and milk based drinks. You still have all the usual customization options for sugar, ice, and toppings. The staff was warm and welcoming from the moment I walked in. Parking was another pleasant surprise. I originally drove past thinking I'd have to search for street parking, but they actually have a shared lot. It made stopping in a lot easier than I expected. I ordered the On Cloud 9, which is a jasmine green milk tea with cheese foam and brown sugar boba. The drink itself was enjoyable. The jasmine wasn't overpowering, which let the cheese foam stand out without completely taking over the drink. I also liked that the sweetness of the brown sugar boba balanced the slight saltiness from the foam. Flavor-wise, I'd say it held its own against other boba shops in San Diego. The only thing that held it back was the boba. It had almost no chew left. Instead of adding texture, it kind of disappeared after one bite because it was so soft. Boba is one of those toppings that can completely change a drink. Even with that, I'd still come back. The menu has way too many interesting drinks to judge the shop off one order. If the boba had been fresher, this easily could've been one of those drinks I'd order again. I think next time I'd branch out and try something from their Limited Series instead.

I was pleasantly surprised to see they opened at 8 AM, especially since most boba spots don't open until around 11. This place really seems like a one-stop shop. Not only do they have delicious teas, but they also sell lottery tickets, have a karaoke setup, and even double as an event space. If I were local, I'd definitely keep this place in mind if I had something going on. I went with the pineapple green tea, and it was exactly what I was looking for. Sweet, refreshing, and perfect for the morning. It even came with the cutest little topper that said, "Believe in yourself," which was such a nice touch. I'd definitely come back again. Wishing this business much success!

Seating: Inside and outside seating. Good for groups big and small. Maybe a total of 20 people Vibes: Welcome to the Mid-City area! This isn't the touristy part of town -- more local, grounded, and full of hidden gems. Lots of great eats, retail, and small businesses nearby.The spot is tucked away in a quieter part of the 54th St strip, so it's cozy and low-key rather than flashy. The shop itself is pretty spacious both inside and outside. Looks like a place to get work done or hang out. FOOD/DRINKS: Matcha Milk Tea (Recommend) Creamy, subtly earthy, and chill. The matcha flavor came through without being too bitter, and the milk smoothed everything out nicely. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Sammy was great! Friendly and quick with the service. TL; DR OVERALL: 3.5 Stars. Good flavors, selections, all at a reasonable price. Happytime Tea hits the mark for a reliable, well-made matcha milk tea in San Diego. Affordable, tasty, and with a lowkey relaxed setting. #RepresentAZN TIPS: * Ask for your drink with less sweetness if you want a stronger matcha flavor.

I'm glad Wushiland Boba (Oo Tea) opened a location on Convoy next to K Sandwiches. Parking is easy,…read moreit's convenient, and the staff here are always friendly, which is a big plus. My go-to is the classic milk tea at 70% sweetness. It's good, though I wish it had a stronger tea flavor. My boyfriend's favorite is the grapefruit tea. We used to love it when they included a whole pink grapefruit--it had so much more fresh citrus flavor. This location doesn't make it quite as well as the Ranch 99 Market location on Clairemont Mesa Blvd., probably because it doesn't seem to use as much grapefruit. It's still decent, just not as flavorful. I also tried the matcha, but it didn't taste like ceremonial-grade matcha, so I would probably skip that next time. Overall, I'd still come back because it's convenient, parking is easy, and the friendly staff always make for a pleasant visit.

It tasted more like 1/4 sweet instead, not bad-- but I'd prefer a touch more sweet. Boba was not bad either, texturally good.

The food is OK, I've had the beef rice bowl, most variations of the fries, and the banana nutella crepe. They're not exceptional, but they'll fill your stomach. The exception is the takoyaki, which is delicious. I've forked over about $30+ to this place in takoyaki fees. It's easy to call in and get a reserved table. Parking is good.
