Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and less sugar = very milky and bland drink, but the boba was good
Laura H.

Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and less sugar: very milky and bland. I could barely taste the tea, and the sweetness level seemed like it was at 25% rather than at 75%. Definitely had to doctor it at home. At least the boba was yummy and soft without being mushy. Regarding customer service, I agree with a few other Yelpers about how lackluster it is. The two ladies working there (one at the register and one making drinks) were indifferent and looked like they'd rather be somewhere else. We weren't greeted upon entry or when we went up to the register and started looking over the menu. When what I thought was my drink was ready, the lady who made it just quickly set it onto the counter, mumbled something that I couldn't really understand, and then walked off into the kitchen area. When I called out for confirmation, neither of the ladies looked at me or answered my question. Luckily, it appeared to be a light-colored milk tea and did have boba, so I'm guessing it was mine haha. My friend didn't really like the Golden Milk Tea (also got less sweet and added boba), as she said it wasn't the type of black tea flavor she was expecting. My other friend thought her oreo blended drink was ok but had a strange aftertaste that she couldn't really describe. There were a lot of people inside on a Saturday night. Interior was cute with the Christmas decorations. There were a good amount of wooden tables and benches throughout, but one of the bench cushions at the back table had a huge tear in it, which didn't look comfortable or sanitary.

The Passionfruit Green Tea and the Lychee Yogurt Smoothie were my favorite! Such a lowkey spot that needs more attention! They have a seating area where you can take off your shoes (Asian style) and there's lots of places to study or work here too! The drinks came out super fast

I stopped in to this very tucked away but cute boba tea shop today. The experience was great and we loved the teas, the parking however is a bit crazy because there is an in n out near it, so an unorganized line of cars was blocking the way mostly.

Caramel twist
Samantha M.

Service is good, I got the caramel twist and mozzarella sticks. The drink was alright nothing special but the mozzarella sticks were so goood wether they're frozen or not they lovely. The downside is that they don't have marinara sauceee . Um also their WiFi is unaccessible, I came with friends to study but left quickly not being able to connect. The employees were unable to help us with that to, but they tried.

Croffle menu as of 2/26/25

This is the kind of boba shop that takes you right back in time--the kind of place where local high schoolers hang out after class, with free WiFi and a comforting snack. It's been here for years, and you can feel that nostalgic charm the moment you walk in. I ordered the popcorn chicken, and wow--it tasted just like I remember from when I used to frequent these kinds of boba shops after high school. Perfectly crispy, well-seasoned, and addictive. The mango tofu was a surprise hit, with its lightly fried texture and zesty mango seasoning. And the Crackin' choco thai tea is just such a fun drink. Breaking through the chocolate lining the cup is just so satisfying haha. The Oreo cookie croffle did not disappoint either. If you're looking for a place with good vibes, classic boba shop flavors, and a touch of nostalgia, this spot is it. Definitely coming back! Thanks for reading! ^-^

Bobaaaaaaaa
Britney M.

Honeydew boba for the win!!! I got the honeydew boba drink. It was yummy. So refreshing and sweet, but not overly sweet. It was really good. I'd get this drink over and over. 10/10 My fiancé got a Thai tea and a milk tea. He enjoyed them both. 10/10 Overall great teas. The honey boba is really good. And love the honeydew drink!

Sunset tea (small) with chia seeds
Meggie T.

Service was quick and the place is clean. It's a chill relaxing setting. During the day I can imagine there's lots of natural lighting, and at night they use yellow light so it's not as harsh a lighting compared to white lights. Saw lots of people getting work done or just hanging out. Sunset tea (passion fruit + peach) regular size has chia seeds in it. Had it with green tea and it was refreshing and light. The other alternative would be black tea. Lots of parking in the parking lot and restroom is clean.

Quite Saturday afternoon 2PM~ish

Fresh boba balls are imperative and Dragonfly Tea Bar is always fresh. They also have a huge variety of other delicious drink options and some good quick bites too. Popcorn chicken (spicy ) is a favorite of mine. It's all an indulgent treat, so fun, and yummy. Service was friendly and quick (and cute ;). The interior is efficient and clean with hard wood tables and seating. There is a cute small upper area where one takes shoes off and sits Japanese style. There's also a tiny bit of seating outside where they tried to make it inviting with a little plants and things. It's a little strip mall where In-N-Out and Taco Loco and 85° Bakery are located. While there's plenty of parking, it's a busy place and parking spaces are also very tight. They've been there for many years and have always been consistent. Close to Chapman in the 55 freeway. Drinks 5/5 Service 5/5 Atmosphere ~ Interior 3/5

Teenagers actually talking instead of being on their cell..
MrCarpeDiem ..

It was really refreshing seeing a group of teens just hanging out after a football game. I went with my wife this past Saturday. As she and I sat in this hole in the wall come to life. The ambiance was pretty mellow and had a nice fit better than $tarbucks. The food was good. The drinks were on point for sure!!!. The service was great. I truly recommend this place young, middle and old.

Waited 30 minutes for a spam musubi this is what I got and so much attitude

Horrible service waited 30 mins for a spam musubi and this is what I got was not busy at all so much attitude for no reason never coming back

The strawberry rainbow croffle. Terrible!  Do NOT Order. Taste like a half frozen eggo with whipped cream and strawberry fruit sauce.

The food: let's be clear, there is only one item to order here that looks and taste better than it looks and better than other establishments offerings. This is their Popcorn Chicken! You can order their popcorn chicken in different levels of spicyness (scoville level) but depending on who is in the kitchen, it will be different every time you order it. They have no clear direction when cooking. This applies also their drinks sweetness. But with that being said it's good. Now the Bad. Don't ever order their Croffles. They are terrible and worse yet they do not look or taste anything like their menu picture offering. (See photos for comparisons. The service is fine for the generation and age group they are and generally serve. The ambiance is varied. Some days it's loud music some days it's no music but one think you can consistently count on is to bring a sweater they like to keep it cold. If you have a fav drink or item you like to order I would suggest staying consistent. Because not everything is good. But it's good enough. Better than their competitor across the street which now closed down.

What time are you open 'til? Asking to confirm the 1am shown on Yelp is accurate bc I've a hard time believing any boba shop in OC is open past 9pm (all others that say they are on Yelp are liars who don't update their hours).

Yes, they are open until 1am!

Has the ownership changed in the past year or so? The drinks aren't as customizable as I remembered.

Do they have a printer?

Yes, they have a printer.

Good place for homework?

Yes! They even have a printer.

What's the WiFi password?

I don't know, because i wasn't dining in! But I'm pretty sure you can ask a staff member....

Do they have outlets?

Yup

I normally just order milk tea but I kinda want to switch it up, does anyone have any good bubble tea recommendations ? Thank you!

the peach milk tea with the regular boba is my favorite :+)

Having tried many OMOMO locations including their Chino Hills and Brea location, I'm glad to say…read morethat this one is Tustin is very much the same quality as the other locations. Might be even better. My wife and I visited here for our weekend date and it was fabulous. Although OMOMO has no online ordering, that wasn't a problem at all as it wasn't super packed when we visited around noon. Usually all OMOMO locations are super packed so this was quite the relief. We ordered our favorite drinks, mine is usually the Osmanthus Oolong or their signature OMOMO Matcha. My wife likes to try out different drinks which is great since we like to share our drinks. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any drink at OMOMO. The ones I've tried are always so delicious and not watered down. Their matcha is top notch as well. This location is a bit bigger than all the other locations as well. Very spacious and clean. There's a big area in the middle where people can sit around it to wait for their drinks, otherwise people wait by the wall. No other seating or tables around. Staff here is great, they're quick and friendly. Other locations don't offer bags but this location offers a big bag if you have more than 1 drink. The bag is similar to all the other boba shops these days which is great quality and very cute. Recommended to sign up for their rewards as well. Every 10 drinks = 1 Free drink, you can track your rewards on CashApp. Overall, a great boba spot. OMOMO has always been consistent with their quality and this location is no different. Very impressed and very happy. Definitely a spot to visit again whenever my wife and I are in the area.

I had to jump back on to write an update about their Omomo app. It has been less than a month since…read morethey launched their app for online orders for their Tustin and Irvine location and there has already been an update. The new change now adds a service charge for using the app to order. In my last review, there was no service charge and now there is. I got two drinks and it was a quarter for the service charge. Not a big deal if it's only 25 cents, but I'm not sure if this amount goes up the more you order. It's a bummer, but if it's only 25 cents, it's worth it to me for the convenience of not having to wait in line.

WOW! Just wow! Omomo…read moreis very popular in the Irvine area and during peak hours, the wait can be quite extensive but definitely for good reason. The drinks are absolutely phenomenal from their milk teas to their slushies, each item is made to perfection. Upon entering the establishment, you can expect to have your order taken relatively quickly. They have a variety of high quality beverage options to choose from including fresh tea, fruit tea, milk tea, and their special creamomo creations. Personally, I always get their Omomo matcha which is their signature ice blended drink made with ceremonial matcha. This drink is definitely a must try for anyone going to this spot for the first time, it's one of their best sellers for good reason. You can also get your drinks modified in terms of sweetness and ice level (depending on the drink). Overall, I would highly recommend this drink shop to anyone in the area looking to get a refreshing beverage!

Upon entering i noticed they now offer mobile ordering and they were already busy making drinks for online orders. Considering being 2nd in line, it took a lot longer this time to get 2 drinks probs from the mobile orders. Note to self to order online next time!! The girl with the pink hair called out my name, i showed my ticket and placed it in the box. She said to show the ticket again to her because i guess she didn't see it. I showed the ticket to her and placed it on the counter. She then said with attitude i can put the ticket back in the box. Her tone and comment was unnecessary. I ignored what she said, took my drinks and left. Review is 3 stars for the interaction I had with her.

I just don't like the service when everything i asked was no no no. Like why would it matter to you? It doesnt cost that much for you to loose a repeat customer. Second, one of my son dont want boba. So I said to put boba in mine. Aloe to be exact. So it's an even swap. But no, Renee said no bc it's a different drink. There is still a barrier on the counter and she is mumbling. I don't know why when she speak she is mumbling the whole time. She said ít was my fault i paid before she put in the discount. I gave her the 15% off to apply but she didn't apply it on time since I paid for it. I asked her to reverse it but she needed the owner to show her how. Then they made my husband drink wrong because they don't listen. I won't be a customer as long as Renee still work here. There should be no reason for an employee to treat customers like this. Even customers behind me was not feeling right. They won't come back either. They are here to enjoy their time but employees are giving bad attitude and tensions for no reasons. Then started laughing in the back. Employees do make a huge difference when it comes to keeping your customers come back. I live nearby. I will come back when Renee is not there anymore.

Definitely unique and really stood out. Better than any "roasted" drink I've had. 3 was the perfect sweetness here. Emerald Spring Jasmine Green Milk Tea: very strong green tea. Definitely different than other Jasmines. It tasted like Gyokuro and Jasmine had a baby. Paired well with the milk and wasn't diluted at all. Formosan Matcha: I recommend the extra strength as it was much "heavier" than the lightweight matchas you'd usually get. Very rich and earthy. The flavor really lingered on your tongue.
