Great place to study! We came over the weekend, and they sat us at one of the booths with outlets. It was a Sunday afternoon and not crowded at all. Lots of parking spots as well. Ordered the wonton soup and the broth was too salty for my taste, but the wontons and greens were delicious. A nice meal if you want something lighter. The popcorn chicken dish was good. You can ask for the Thai chili sauce or hot sauce on the side if you want to add extra flavor. For the drinks, you can choose the tea base, two fruit flavors, toppings, sweetness level, and ice amount. I wanted guava and wasn't sure what would pair well with it so the waitress asked the bartender for me and recommended litchi. It was really good!! Got that with half sugar and it was at a good sweetness level for me. The red bean drink had chunks of red beans inside a milk slush. Not bad if you are into red bean. Definitely would come back if I'm in the area and need to study. Staff is very friendly! WiFi password is their phone number. read more

I did not know they had two locations on Valley. Make sure to double check when ordering to go. I luckily ended up at the right one. I've been here one time before, maybe a year ago, and got a Boba drink for me and my co-worker. They're drinks were pretty good and they have lots of options. It can be a little overwhelming at first. I ordered some lunch to-go a couple weeks ago and the photos of their lunch looked awesome and had good reviews, so I got the Popcorn Chicken entree. It says it comes with two side dishes and rice with meat sauce. I got the box and the chicken wasn't that bad, I felt like it was missing something. I did request a sauce on the side, but didn't get one. I think it would have tasted better with some kind of a sauce, or maybe that's just me liking everything saucy. The rice was ok, but it said two sides and it had a curry potato side and some broccoli on top of that, so not sure if that's considered one side or two. I thought a soup would be included maybe that was the other side? I had no soup, but was given a spoon with my order for some reason. All in all it was ok. I didn't hate it, but I wasn't crazy about it either. Not sure if I would order food from here again, but I would definitely come back for their drinks. Staff is very friendly, nearby location. Definitely recommend trying them out for their many drink options. read more

Ten Ren is always a solid, but I feel that the Walnut location is the best. Maybe because it isn't overly crowded with people and you get what you're expecting. One awesome thing about this location is that they have a lot of food items! Popcorn chicken is always on point Fried chicken wing, new fave! Such a solid, and it is always good! Drinks are always consistent! Esp when you request half sugar, it really is half sugar. You can taste the actual tea flavor and not just some sugar powder thing like all the other places! read more

Met a friend there. Great place to sit and chat, and there are plenty of great food and drink choices to make your time there very pleasant. Parking is pretty easy. It's a little wonky getting into the parking lot though because if you're heading northeast on Valley Blvd, you'll have to make a u-turn on Lemon in order to get into the parking lot because the median will prevent you from making a turn directly into the parking lot. I got there around 5:30 pm on a Monday and it wasn't crowded. By 6pm it was packed. From 6-8pm you bet they have a special where you get a regular house tea for just $1.95 with any entree. Nice! I'm not going to go on and on about the menu because it's extensive. Whether you just want a snack on of the myriad versions and varieties of tea, hot pot, ramen.....trust me, you'll have no trouble finding something good to eat or drink. I had a miso-based hotpot with fish as my choice ingredient. Loved it. I also had a boba tea. I don't even like boba that much but I loved this one! The staff is really nice. They have wifi. The password is their phone number. I don't frequent that area but I'll definitely go back if I'm in the area again sometime. read more

I've been to Ten Ren's in other cities and this location has the best service. Everyone was friendly and the food was good. I liked the industrial decor and they have plenty of tables to sit and watch sports. They do serve beer and wine so that's a plus as well. read more

Taiwanese snack and boba local chain. I keep coming back for the popcorn chicken, which is crispy and well-seasoned. You can choose the level of spiciness (we choose medium for when we want it mild, and usually get an extra spicy for when we want more of a kick). They are open during coronavirus for carry out. We placed our order over the phone and it was ready in 10-15 minutes. We also ordered beef rolls, which came with a small container of pickled veggies that we liked. The beef rolls are more on the sweet side, but there's a good amount of cilantro and green veggies for a crunch. The beef noodle soup was better than expected, although the noodles did stick a lot together and were difficult to separate. The texture was still good and although it wasn't spicy, the broth was comforting. One entree and two snacks fed three of us for lunch for under $30. read more

The quality of the food used to be better! I ordered the popping fish balls, which were great! I also ordered the beef rolls that used tortilla wrap instead of Chinese pancake wrap, so it did not taste right. They used to make it with the Chinese pancake wrap. Service was great and prompt, but I wouldn't recommend the beef rolls. read more

Ten Rens Tea Time is a place that I often come to when I just can't decide on what to eat. They have such a large selection of food that, you'll be either very happy with coming here or you might want to just order everything because you just can't decide. I like coming here for a lunch or dinner with a few friends so we can share and try each other's menu choices. The place has plenty of seats but it is always busy even on the weekdays. Parking can sometimes be crazy and packed during lunch time. You can always order take out and just eat at your office. I love their grapefruit tea and also their taro slushy. If you are a fan of either these are pretty legit. I do make it less sweet because I don't really enjoy the very sweet drinks. Tried their hot pot over here which was pretty tasty as well and shared it between two people. It was enough and plenty of meat inside. If you need a place to eat and drink this is probably a pretty alright choice and you know hey are very consistent in the flavor of food and drinks here. Tip- They have a drink stamp card, but I always forget to get it!! read more

First of all, I have to say, most of my friends and family go to Ten Ren ALL THE TIME. ALL THE TIME literally means I will run into someone I know every single time I dine there. It is at a VERY good location which really works out for residents around Walnut area. I have tried almost everything on the menu since I come here so often. My favorites are Mongolian beef, scrambled egg, Taiwanese pork chop and their spicy wontons. I think the hot pots are decent too as well except the soup base might not have a lot of flavors. Their beef ball glasses noodle and beef dumpling soup are both very decent too, those two can be very safe choices to go with. They used to have the snack size plates but recently got cancelled. You do not have the option to order mini size plates anymore right now. My kids love their popcorn chickens but I have to say the quality can be a little inconsistent at times. One more down side is that they repeat the same size dishes OVER AND OVER, DAY AFTER DAY. They taste good but you get tired of eating the same thing over and over though. It would be very nice to change to different side dishes from time to time instead of always having bean sprouts and broccoli. Last, their drinks are VERY good. The quality of the tea is very good and they are very good with adjusting to your personal needs with the sweetness. There are many levels that you can choose to have. My favorite drink is their osmanthus oolong milk tea with 1/2 sugar. Regardless, this is somewhere that I would just keep going regardless. I am kind of hooked to their drinks. read more

Stop by to pick up a drink. I ordered and osmanthus oolong tea with half sugar and a half ice. It was all right but they really did not add any sugar so the tea flavor was pretty strong. Also I asked for a receipt and stood there for 10 minutes and the cashier didn't help me get it even though she did let me know that she heard me. So after a while I just left. read more

Ive been ordering post mates here a couple of times, and absolutely love Ten Rens. I havent had an issue the past few times but today I ordered food for my family, and as I was halfway done with my spaghetti (which Ive never tried, tastes good btw) I found a hair :( It was a short hair, definitely not one of ours as we are all girls with long hair. Super disappointed, lost my appetite as things like this gross me out. The food and drinks here are good; just watch out for what youre eating read more

Came in for a quick lunch while my car was being serviced. I had never had actual food from Ten Ren before, so I decided it was worth a try. Well, maybe I ordered the wrong thing, but it wasn't very good. I had the chicken leg with noodle soup ($9.45). I love braised chicken leg noodle soup, but this one was just lacking in overall flavor. What was brought out to me was this pale clear broth with some thick noodles. The chicken leg was served on the side. The soup tasted like water until maybe 5-7 minutes later when the server came by to drop off a small bowl of beef sauce which should have been added to the soup prior to serving it to me but was somehow forgotten initially. Even with the beef sauce, there wasn't much flavor. It helped, but the soup was so thin and lacking in actual meat flavor that even that beef sauce couldn't save it. The chicken leg was a strange mealy texture and had a weird flavor to it. By itself, it was too salty, but put into the soup, it became mushy and flavorless. I also had a green milk tea with boba that was just average. It was during happy hour and was $3, but there was nothing really special about it. I wouldn't come back for the normal food menu nor would I return for the boba. read more

Came here for a dinner and it was a pretty bland experience. It wasn't terrible or fantastic. I didn't try their boba, but it seems more like a boba place than a restaurant. The service was not great. There was not a lot of people in the restaurant, but we still had to get up and ask for things, because no waiter/tress was in sight. Once we ordered the food came promptly. It reminded me of a lunch box. I ordered the white chicken with ginger and onions. The flavors were there and it paired well with my rice. $12. I would probably try all the other bajillion Asian places in this area and then compare. read more

Came here for a late lunch and the food was okay. Popcorn chicken was good but the salt and spice weren't mixed evenly. Braised pork rice with egg was good, but nothing special. The Jasmine green milk tea was good but I had to order extra sweet. Service was typical for an Asian restaurant. Not a bad place for lunch and hang out. read more

Ten Ren's Tea Time This location serves alcohol and wine. For those who don't know Ten Ren's Tea Time is a chain for Tea and Taiwanese food. Some patrons come here to converse, a lot of church groups come here for bible study, some just want Tea or boba, and some people come here to study or meet their study groups for class. Whichever reason it may be, it works because this place is usually busy. They have all sorts of Taiwanese dishes, teas and boba. I won't go into too much detail just know that it is expensive compared to other places. Their snacks easily range $6 and up. The quality of their food is usually a hit or miss. I've eaten their different combos and hot pot plenty of times and each time is different. Sometimes it's good sometimes it's bland. Meh. Final Score 3.4 - It's alright. It's basically a place to go that's close by. Nothing crazy to rave about. read more

Worst! Before I move forward with this review I would like to clarify that I love going to the ten ren in diamond plaza. Foods and drinks are up to expectation in that location. Back to this Walnut location, came here 2 weeks ago, ordered a green tea less sugar but it taste like 150% sugar. All sugar syrup. Skit skit Came here again for a second try today, ordered the Green Tea (CC) Top less sugar which I usually order in the diamond plaza location, YIKEZZZZZZZZZZZ. It literally taste like water mixed with whipped cream. No tea flavor, no cheese cream flavor whatsoever. Whoever made this drinks should get HER taste buds reinvented. I will take my ass back to the diamond plaza location. YIKEEEEEEEZ PEACE OUT! read more

3.9 stars... The food and service are way better!!! Had satay beef fried rice which was very tasty. The appetizer 攪和攪和 was a bit overpriced but it was decent too.

Glad to see the change!! Will keep coming back for sure!! read more

Most of the time, I think boba food is average, to pretty good, but never great. I think this place has some bomb boba food. I'm not sure, I think this particular Ten Ren recently underwent a change in ownership judging from their revamped food menu. My sister and I shared the following: -spicy wontons ($5.95 for 8): these are sizable dumplings where you can actually see and taste the meat filling. I appreciated the chopped scallions, cilantro + seaweed strips topping - it really added another layer of flavor to the already juicy dumplings. -popcorn chicken ($3.35 for a half order): tender, crunchy, had a good kick of spiciness - this is as good as any popcorn chicken could get. This was a steal at $3 bucks because you get so much per order. -Chinese spaghetti ($7.50): ground pork + onion marinara topped with a fried egg. The spaghetti had a nice chew, and the fried egg was a nice touch. It was a tad too sweet for me, but whatevs, it was good for what it was. I like this Ten Ren. It's open all the freaking time (Christmas included), and churns out consistent drinks. Kudos to our knee brace wearing waitress who was attentive and on point with service even though the place was cracking. read more

We frequently stopped by this place after a gruelling game of badminton (yes, badminton!!!) at the nearby indoor court of SGVBC...there's another Ten Ren on Valley & Grand, but this one has more tables so you don't rub elbows with other patron In addition to a great selection of tea drinks with boba, Ten Ren also serve a variety of freshly cooked delicious food! We've tried the following dishes and I have to admit that they are all surprisingly pretty good: - Shredded pork fried rice noodle $8.99 **** 4 STAR **** comes with thinly sliced pork meat, carrots, onion, and cabbage. the rice noodle in light sauce has really great flavor - Shrimp fried rice $9.99 **** 4 STAR **** very tasty fried rice, plenty of good sized fresh shrimp - Beef stew noodle soup ***** 5 STAR ***** Arguably the best beef stew noodle soup anywhere.....comparable to some of the best ones I've consumed in Taipei.......this one comes with plenty of tender chunks of beef including some wonderfully chewy tendons, topped with the pickled green things for a completely authentic experience - Salt & pepper chicken nuggets $4.99 **** 4 STAR **** this makes a tasty and easy to munch snack on the go, they also have other selections such as squid balls, fried tofu, fried oysters, and much more - Combination stir fried udon **** 4 STAR **** one of my favorite, this dish is surprisingly very good, almost like chow mein but with udon in addicting brown sauce, comes with mushroom and seafood like squid and shrimp Another thing I like about Ten Ren is the container they use for to-go order is high quality container and also microwaveable, which makes warming up food a cinch for the next day at the office read more

UPDATE: I came back today and I felt the employees were rude and even messed up my order (which is completely understandable, everyone makes mistakes!) but no apology, and no smile!

Green Shaker - Matcha milk tea with mini boba, house coffee and taro milk tea :) - Bubble Tea Near Me - Walnut, California

First time getting food at a Ten Ren and I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the chicken tea leg combo which came with a large tea marinated thigh, a bowl of white rice with ground pork on top, a side of daikon, and marinated cucumbers. I decided to upgrade for an extra $1 for a green tea as well. I was sooo full at the end of the meal and theyre so generous with the portions. The chicken was tender and the tea marinade really seeped into the meat. I was one happy camper. The boy ordered the pork chop combo and was very happy with the flavors and texture of the pork. The drinks were on par as usual. Definitely can taste the distinct flavor of the tea. Nicely brewed, strong tea flavor is what I usually look for in a good cup of boba. Will definitely come back if we're ever in the area. The servers were really attentive and overall a very nice experience. I'm actually interested to try their alcoholic drinks. Considering that they have several huge TVs..and serves pitchers of beer, this would be a good location to watch a sports game haha.. read more

This is the place to go to for happy hour! $9 a pitcher, you can't beat that unless you're drinking home alone! There are plenty of tables and it's a good place for groups. They allow you to bring your own games and don't make you order a minimum per person like other asian tea places. The dragon chrysanthemum hot tea is delicious! The first pot tasting the best because it's just perfectly sweet, but when you refill it with hot water, the later cups lose its flavor and it tastes like you're just drinking water. I always get a stamp card and end up tossing it somewhere. It would be great if they switched to a digital rewards system.. They close at midnight which gives us plenty of time to chill. The employees are friendly but it can be hard to wave them down. The food is overpriced but the alcohol is cheap! You'll see me here on an occasional Thursday night when I'm in town. read more

I would recommend you JUST stay with their drinks. I tried their meal options. I think a proper chef could make better food than the food they serve... straight salty. I like the Love Poison #6 from any Ten Ren since 2006. They are all kind of teas are tasty as well. Oh one more thing, if you are looking for an authentic matcha drink... perhaps look for another place where serve coffee. read more

This relatively new location of Ten Ren is located in the most annoying stripe mall in the Walnut area. There is virtually no way to turn in heading east or north. You just have to go to the right light to make a U turn and with so many no U turn interceptions on Valley, it could be quite annoying. The place is decent sized and nicely decorated with big screen TV's and modern decor. We were seated promptly by the friendly staff. Everything was great until a couple of Asian teenagers sat down in the next table. They totally ruined out dining experience by gossiping loudly the whole time. I dislike loud Asians. We ordered sausage fried rice, beef hotpot with miso soup base, stinky tofu and popcorn chicken for the 3 of us. Surprising, the food is not that bad!! Ten Ren is usually known for overpriced teas but their Taiwanese night market food is quite tasty. The stinky tofu wasn't very traditional and stinky but other than that, everything was at least a 4 star. I can see why teenagers flock to this place. It's reasonably prices and tasty. read more

This is a go to place for my friends and I. It's not the BEST tea in the world, but decent. I'm going to be honest, the price and food is not always a 4 star, it could be inconsistent. The service is 50% good and 50% sucky, but I think because we always have a good time there, they have a full menu, alcohol, and decent tea.. overall I will give a 4 star. Pros- Full menu Decent service Alcohol Opens late More seating than other Ten Ren's Decent Tea Cons- Can get pricy Decent service Sometimes super crowded Smokers Really need to tell the workers to tell the smokers to step AWAY from the building.. really ruins my happy meal experience. read more

Spent almost $15 for two boba tea drink. Experience was awful as it was like drinking sugar water. I especially ordered 70% sugar but still way sweeter than full sugar compared to other stores.

I love love LOVE Ten Ren. I'm a super big fan of all any of their locations. Their food and drinks are consistent across all of the restaurants. However, at this location, the service is hit or miss. Sometimes we have to wait a bit longer before we get our order taken or it takes a while to get noticed when we're trying to request the check or boxes. It seems like there's just a customer service issue when things get busy at this location. This location DOES serve alcohol. I took my co-workers here for happy hour and they all loved the food and drinks, just didn't care much for the customer service. I've been here several times since that visit and it's still the same regarding the customer service. The parking in the lot is plentiful and the restaurant and bathrooms are fairly clean. read more

Decent boba and Taiwanese food joint, but it's mediocre at best. The boba is always too hard and the kitchen closes early.
