This place is pretty good. Got the jasmine matcha milk tea. Good. Friends got the Thai tea blended and the coconut strawberry. They enjoyed both. The staff was friendly! read more

Their drinks and shaved ice here are amazingly good! I come here often to eat shaved ice and drink the yogurt drinks. Very refreshing and not too sweet. The staff are very kind as well. I will say the matcha shaved ice was insanely salty though :(. Thankfully the staff were really kind about it and told me that's what they do. Overall, the fruit shaved ice was always a hit for me. Will come back 100% read more

My husband and I love this place! We go here all the time, especially on a hot day! We order the passion fruit peach green tea with lychee jellies and 50% sweetness. Definitely recommend either 50% or 75% sweetness since the drinks can be rather sweet without that. But they also have a great rewards system so I just redeemed a free drink. Def recommend this place! read more

The Snow Creme desserts here are great! They are large enough for two to share and perfectly sweet. The only downside is the price point with each coming in around $15. Of the three that we've tried the mango is easily the best. Even though the chocolate wasn't that great I'll keep coming back either to try new things or just continue getting the mango!

Good place. Small menu, but enough to get what you need. I craved a taro, but went for a pistachio which was delicious. So if you like taro, pistachio is a good alternate. Guy working, was helpful, kind and friendly. He was quick at making the drinks too. Place was clean, bright and chairs are inside to grab your snacks and drinks at eat there. I would definitely go again. read more

Made a surprise stop here after getting gas nearby. Looked like a new shop with positive reviews and they were open on Christmas Day, so I was glad to be able to get a boba fix :) Ordered a jasmine milk tea, 75% sweet with brown sugar boba and it was good! Boba was fresh and chewy. No complaints, and the cashier was nice. They have a variety of snacks and Korean bingsoo to try. Nice small shop connected to the Chinese restaurant next door so you'll need to go there for a restroom. It's a small unassuming place but a nice local spot to give a try! read more

ES tea - I was thirsty so I already drank some of my jasmine milk tea before this pic haha - Shaved Ice Near Me - Simi Valley, California

My daughter loves the Oreo cookie shake with boba but the service is not friendly (two times) and the place feels dirty and messy. Overall I do not like the vibe. read more

I love EsTea, cute lil place with fast service. My fav is their grapefruit with Aloe, winter melon, jasmine tea and every tea I have tried has been fresh and yummy. read more

great local boba place and inside is so cute as they are always playing kpop videos. Their teas are very refreshing and this last time I got their winter melon tea with grass jelly. I was nervous about the grass jelly flavor but was happily surprised at how good it tasted. read more

ES tea - winter melon tea with grass jelly - Shaved Ice Near Me - Simi Valley, California

This is probably the closest place that resembles LA boba. So I come here often for that deeper tea flavor and I like the variety of spicy snacks! It's awesome to be so close to a place that also offers Korean shaved ice. As for the bathroom, they're connected to the Bao Su restaurant so you would go around the corner and use the restaurant bathroom instead. Service is usually quite fast. I've never waited longer than 5-10 min for my snacks and drinks. Which is nice because there isn't much space to hang out anyway. This is a really small shop that isn't good for studying or staying for too long. If there are open tables on the patio, then it's good to a quick snack and 1 hour conversation. I come here probs 1 a month but I do prefer a place that allows me to sit there for a longer amount of time. read more

Vibe good. Spacious for waiting. Expensive snow crème $14.94. Didn't like matcha flavor. Would come back and get boba. read more

I am usually a 118 café girlie when it comes to boba but it closes at 8 and my daughter was demanding boba at 7:30. I hate going to a business in its last 30 minutes of being open so we looked for another close option and found ES tea. Though the menu isn't as extensive this place does what they do WELL. Their brown sugar boba is out of this world and my daughters absolute favorite. I got their pink coconut drink and it was so refreshing and delicious. We also tried their food and everything we have had so far has been so good though I wouldn't recommend going here for a full meal as it is more geared towards *snacks* . Its also quite small on the inside so not exactly a place to hang out as much as a place to grab drinks and go but its clean and they are constantly playing K Pop music videos which is very much appreciated. So happy to have found this great new spot! read more

Service was good and fast We ordered the messy brown sugar boba and taro boba flavors are on point the boba was slightly hard could be because we came in late but I'd definitely come back and try it again read more

The boba here is excellent! Personally, I like the texture of boba when it's more firm and they make it perfectly! I got 3 different types of teas and they all tasted awesome. Plus the two girls working were very sweet & helpful! Although the store is very small and not a great hang-out area, the boba itself makes ES Tea my new fav boba in Simi! read more

I was so happy when I stumbled across ES Tea. Their boba and drinks are all so delicious! I can go there every day. The inside is super tiny, with very limited seating, which isn't a big deal. The service is friendly; short and sweet, just like their tEaS! read more

The lady working behind the counter this afternoon was very nice when I asked about boba tea. Unfortunately, they don't not have oat milk as an option to dairy, only soy so I opted out. My hubby ordered a Thai iced tea with soy which he enjoyed although said it was very sweet. Adjusting sugar levels was not an choice when we arrived. Would suggest business consider variable sugar levels as well as other options to dairy in the tea in addition to soy. Ample parking out front. read more

Wow, we stumbled upon Es Tea Boba Spot in Simi Valley when we were craving boba, and what a delightful find it was! The drinks were absolutely amazing, with a perfect balance of flavors and a refreshing twist. The boba was perfectly chewy, and the variety of options catered to everyone's tastes. The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome right away. Service is great--my friend's daughter had never tasted boba before, so I kindly asked the staff if they could give her a small cup to try. They happily obliged, and now she's a boba lover! I loved how the staff goes above and beyond to create great experiences. The cozy ambiance and clean space added to the overall fantastic experience. I would definitely return and highly recommend this spot to all boba lovers! The shaved ice was The boba was The teas Great spot for both boba lovers and none boba lovers! read more

I had the Thai milk tea with tapioca boba; this drink was off the chain and had the perfect level of sweetness. The customer service and speed of the drink being made were respectively on point. read more

My girlfriend and I ordered the peach & passion fruit green tea with lychee jelly and the jasmine green milk tea with grass jelly. Peach & passion fruit: 10/10. The passion fruit tea is nice and tart with a lingering green tea taste after each sip. The lychee jelly is firm and tasty. My favorite thing about this drink is that it comes with 2 slices of actual peach. Yum! Jasmine green milk tea: 9/10. This drink is everything you'd expect from a Jasmine milk tea. Cant really say much about this drink except that it meets expectations. Grass jelly topping was a bit clumpy and mushy, but at least it tasted fresh and not out of a pre made can. Looking forward to returning soon to try their pudding with perhaps their black milk tea or Hokkaido? Again, I'm very happy that there's a boba spot in Simi Valley that does not taste powdery/instant. Thank you! read more

Was in Simi and wanted some boba so I decided to check this place out. I got the mango & pineapple smoothie with brown sugar boba. I forgot to ask for less sugar, so the drink was pretty sweet but not overly sweet to the point where I couldn't drink it. The drink itself was very refreshing, and I could tell there was real fruit in it. The boba was sweet and chewy, just how boba should be. Not a mind-blowing smoothie but definitely hit the spot! read more

We were craving something sweet and I remember I saw the Snow Creme on the menu here last time I came. We asked our server which was the best seller and she told us the Mango Snow Creme is REALLY GOOD! So that's what we ordered! She was right... it is really really good! I loved the servers good energy and when she brought out our order she even wished me "A Speedy Recovery" because I just had surgery on my knee and I had my brace on. The Boba here is also good but man, the Snow Creme Dessert is amazing! Definitely gotta try it! read more

Plenty of parking (+ cheap gas station nearby, very convenient). This is an extension of a Chinese restaurant. I wanted to get a boba tea and continue working, so I found that boba t*me and this new place were the only well-reviewed options in Simi Valley. I decided to stop and grab a Taro Milk Tea. At first glance it looked like there would be no seating, but once I walked in, I was happy to be able to easily sit and do some God-given work. Thank you Lord for a nice cozy place with delicious and not over-priced Taro Milk Tea to enjoy. They have good dessert options and something that appears to be Chinese version of bingsu, but I'm a creature of habit. The boba is a little on the softer side , just a heads up, but 50% sweet for taro is great. I love that it's only like $5 instead of $8 or some craziness that I'm used to. read more

The snow cremes were great and the servers are nice and prompt. Would definitely come back when I'm in the area

The snow has an interesting texture, not as great to me once it gets a little melty. The boba tea is good and it's nice to have an alternate to 118 cafe on this side of town. Not much seating so mainly a pick-up and go situation here. read more

Drinks are really good! I love love their bingsoo, shaved ice. Not much space to hang out though. I also wish that they have doordash or ubereats. But other than that they are very nice and friendly! They will make your drink fast! So far the best boba boba place in simi! read more

This is my first yelp review I've written. I even downloaded the app to write this review. I called ES tea and was told they closed at 9:00 PM. My family and I arrived at 6:15 PM and waited about 5 to 10 minutes before an employee walked in to let us know they're closed. The open sign was still lit. The employee said they were too busy to take any orders. ES tea is attached to restaurant Bao Su A Chinese Cuisine. Granted, Bau Su was busy and people were waiting to get their food. However, the employee at ES tea "shoo'ed" my family and me away saying "We're closed. We're too busy." All the while, the employee was shoo'ing us away with the motions of his hands. I get they're busy. But shoo'ing us away was not appropriate. read more

I'm so glad that simi finally has opened a delicious Asian dessert shop here!!! I'm a fan of their brown sugar milk tea, it tastes exactly like something you would get out in LA. That saves me a 40 minute drive. Their shaved ice is also really good, tastes authentic and the portions are good! I recommend this place for anyone who's a boba fan read more

Great boba drinks here. I'm limited on what I can order because I stay away from Caffeine, but they do have drink options that are caffeine-free fortunately. Very refreshing, esp. on a hot summer day. read more

The mango ice cream was delicious! Unlike any other ice cream I've had before. The bobas were both delicious too. Service was great - was done fast and we were the only ones there. Only one table in there but it's connected to a chinese restaurant with plenty of seating. read more

So glad to see a nice and authentic boba tea place in Simi. Everything is made fresh with real ingredients. My favorite so far is the mango yogurt smoothie - love the fresh mango and the crystal boba in it. I've tried the oolong milk tea with grass jelly and it's really good just slightly on the sweeter side so I would probably try half sugar next time. They also have some appetizers. The popcorn chicken tasted pretty good especially with the sweet chili sauce. I haven't had anything that I don't like so far and I can't wait to try more drinks! read more

When they first started their Thai tea was the best boba spot Thai tea in Simi but last few times it's been watery and not sweet at all. That's too bad.. read more

What a good spot to enjoy a snow cream during this heat wave. I had the mango which is sweet and creamy. But also had the matcha snow cream but it's quite potent. If you've ever had matcha it taste just like the powder. You get other fruits in the bowl such as the sweet beans and what looks like figs. I personally, was not a fan of the cream just the fruits. Definitely, will go back for the mango sweet cream again. You get it in a bowl- as if you were getting a açaí bowl. Check it out! They also have other things on their menu which I didn't get. Their isn't much sitting. And if you sit outside their isn't a nice view. It's the parking lot and thr gas station next to it. But you can definitely make the most out of it. read more

Love the grapefruit green tea, this is my fav. Drink!!! Go and try. They've also have added some food items and extended the eating area which looks really cute and inviting. I have yet to try the food! read more

Would not recommend, unclean workspace, saw cockroach's on the tables, workers were very unwelcoming. Boba was mid, would not come here again. read more

All in all, an ok place Am in love with this place? NO. Would I come back again? Not after 3 visits. I really wanted to love this place because I've been looking for an authentic "shaved ice" place. Yes I said authentic, because some business say they have shaved ice but obviously they don't know what shaved ice is. Theirs is more like snow cones Here is why 3 stars: 1. Wait time - They take for ever to get the orders done. My last visit it took over 20 minutes. Mind you, had to wait outside in this heat. There was one person ahead of me! That's just oo much wait time for me. They need to pick up on the speed. The first two times it took over 15 minutes 2. Taste - The flavors are good. The shaved ice is good. But the quantity is bad. Because it's so thin, it may seem like they are giving you alot but it's so thin it weights nothing. Essentially they are just giving you air. 3. Prices - I think their prices are a bit high. Not worth it. Come and try this place and judge for yourself read more

Came here for the first time. Was shocked for the price. Not worth the price. $13+tax wow!! A couple Mango bites on top and a bunch of ice and too sweet syrup. $15 is already price a dinner lunch menu. Too much for only eating ice read more

I'm from the 626 and was visiting and I was highly craving some popcorn chicken and this was the only place near by that had boba with popcorn chicken. I ordered strawberry mango green tea with crystal boba, milk tea with pudding, fries, and ofc popcorn chicken. PERSONALLY the milk tea could've been sweeter because it tasted watered down and the strawberry mango, idk but I guess I didn't like the flavor because it sort of lacked. the fries and popcorn chicken was overly seasoned . It was too salty but taste wise it's okay. It's a cute little place and would come to try their shaved ice! I think with a few fixes with the drinks and the season on the snacks would make this place slightly more consumable. But other than that give it a try because you never know! read more

The drinks here are amazing! Love the Hokkaido tea and the mango pineapple smoothie has real chunks of fruit. Both some of the best drinks I've had at boba house. Also great and quick service. So why the 4 stars. The website for ordering could use some improvements. The sample pictures of the drinks show the drink with boba and have an option for no boba so I assumed the drink included boba however when I picked it up no boba so I was disappointed I didn't even get to try the boba which is the entire reason I ordered. I'll reorder in the future and make sure I pay the extra to have boba included. It should not be pictured and an option to remove it should not be available if it's not included. read more

Really good! I've lived in Simi for nearly all of my life, and a good milk tea place like this is such a gem. Staff was very nice and friendly. There is very minimal space inside, with a single set of table and chairs so this is a place for a quick order-and-go. They were running a bit slow because it was busy when I went, but they kindly and immediately apologized for the wait. I ordered the mango snow creme (resembles bingsu -- a milk-based finely shaved ice dessert with toppings) to share and a taro milk tea with cheese foam & boba. I would say that things were a bit on the sweeter side, but still overall good! I would really love it if they had an option to adjust the sugar level to your drink when ordering. I can see myself being a regular here and I will definitely be coming back to try out their other options on the menu! read more
