    Thai Tea
    Ashley B.

    Excellent plus. We ordered two Thai teas for the adults and one milk tea for our son! Lovely flavor, excellent "immaculate" boba! Perfect stop before hitting Ala Moana Beach. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Excellent customer service, and the shop is so clean and cute![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We are very pleased and will be coming back at least 5 more times! FYI 75% is where it's at in regard to sweetness and balance. Thank you Hana Tea, what a gem you are!

    Went to Hana tea for the first time since they moved to this new location and it's still just as fantastic as their former Pearl City and Kalihi location! The Genmai is a must!

    Our favorite boba tea....brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba.

    My go to for my norm, my brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba. I have to remember to get a medium or small and not the large. For a big back, lol I always get full from the large and end up wasting. I got to try the wife's dragon fruit yogurt and it was actually good. Not bad. Not my cup of tea. Lol I think moreso, I actually enjoyed the lychee jelly lol. But was good not bad. Customer service always great. She was nice and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Every time I walk in feels so clean, like the ambiance, soft music. Great vibes. Cute decor. Tables to sit.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Gotta ask for key to go bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Don't forget to tip (optional), your straw, and to take pretty pictures of your drink and decor lol get street parking right out front. Located on halekauwila. Came here right after picking up sabrozon for dinner, since they located on the same street. I got my boba and burrito fix!

    It's been a long time since I've had drinks from here. Service was fast and easy. A lot of choices you can order from. I ordered the Triple Matcha that came with matcha pudding and matcha creamy cake, and Classic milk tea with mixed boba and creamy cake, all at 75% less sugar.

    Not the same :( Used to be obsessed with Hana Tea before it relocated. I was warned by friends that it's not as good now but I was still excited to try the new location. I got the classic brown sugar boba - it was bland, too milky & boba didn't taste fresh. Very different than the original for sure. Unfortunate. Parking: 20 minutes free in the structure to its right.

    Hana Tea was one of the first boba places I tried back when they first opened in their original location several years ago near Dillingham. It was the first milk tea I had with the cheese cap and my life has changed since then and I hold everywhere else to that standard. They moved to the new Kakaako location recently which is very conveniently located. IMO, this place is still one of THE best boba places on island. I've had it at least a dozen times and it is very consistent. The brown sugar milk tea with cheese foam is my regular order and my daughter gets the taro milk tea. We do 75% sweet (we have a sweet tooth so I recommend going less if you aren't) and less ice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice seating, free parking for less than an hour stay.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is super cute and cozy, there's maybe 10-12 tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is quick and attentive, I had my drink within a few minutes.

    4.5 stars Came in and tried three drinks -- all worth it! The brown sugar milk tea with boba at 75% less sweet was absolutely the star of the show. Just the right amount of sweetness without the sugar rush. Highly recommend customizing your sweetness level here! The tea and coffee milk tea with crystal boba hit that perfect Hong Kong café nostalgia, and the crystal boba was a fun twist. Also grabbed the peach green tea with boba -- light, fruity, and super refreshing. Boba is $0.75 extra on any drink, which is fair. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop is clean, bright, and smells amazing -- that fresh tea aroma the moment you walk in just sets the whole mood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be back! Note: meter parking

    Meh

    I was interested to try this new located in the Kaka'ako (the salt area) since the other one closed down. Larger size shop compared to last one that closed. I wanted to see how the brown sugar milk tea Boba drink compared. Note that this is made with non-dairy creamer without having to substitute. The flavor was on point and similar to what I'm used to, but unfortunately I feel like the Boba texture was not on point. I'm not sure if I got a bad batch, but the texture had no balance or chew to it. that makes me to believe it had been sitting. you also have the option to order ahead of time on their website. Definitely recommend you get the stamp card to accumulate drink points. Overall, I will give this another shot, but as far as standard and quality to what I'm used to from, it was not as good as when I remembered it to be.

    @fortunefoodfinds: "Hey cu-TEA! My go-to brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba + creamy cake + brûlée cheese foam @ 75% sweetness with less ice from HANA TEA in Kaka'ako. When in the neighborhood, I just had to treat myself to something good!" Staff: fully staffed [[HIGHLIGHT]]Interior: low tables n' bar stools available[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Exterior: in Kaka'ako area Wait time: 10 mins Parking: street or garage Overall comments: my fave boba drink! Order this time n' time again. Sweet, creamy, great taste, n' warm soft boba. On this visit I redeemed my stamp card so the drink was free with up to 2 toppings!

    Best boba in town! I've been going to Hana tea for years now and I absolutely love their brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba! This is my go to stop for any boba cravings! They used to be located in the dillingham area but they moved to the kakaako area which I think works out better! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute little cafe with a few tables and counter seating for small groups.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a fairly large menu of fruit teas and milk teas with various toppings. You can choose sweetness level and Ice level as well! The line generally moves pretty fast unless a customer has questions about a drink. There is garage parking available or street parking in the area. Grace period is either 20 or 30min (there is a sign on the Hana tea door) if not they validate as well.

    This is my favorite boba shop! I ordered the hojicha latte with soy milk (I forgot my lactaid), and it was delicious! This was actually my first time having hojicha so I can't speak about how good the hojicha was, but I enjoyed it! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior of the cafe is also so cute and the menu has options for everyone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My cashier, Remy, was so sweet and answered my questions about the drink. Will definitely be trying more things on the menu!

    Cindy L.

    We stopped by in the afternoon and easily parked on the street. We weren't sure what to expect since this was our first boba here in Oahu. However, our drinks did not disappoint - their boba was soft and chewy and their drink was flavorful and not too sweet. Space was nice and quiet on a weekday, and the workers were efficient and quick. We made an extra effort to stop here to satisfy our boba craving and also because our pup is named Hana and we miss her.

    Ask the Community - Hana Tea

    Do they accept gift card or stamp card at this time?

    Yes! On their online order site, there's a stamp card option. You select your choices as you normally would then put the type of drink you want in the special notes (ie Classic Milk Tea). When you pick up your order, just give the cards you're… 

    Any caffeine-free options?

    Fruit smoothies and sparkling water.

    How many calories in brown sugar milk tea large?

    too much

    Do they offer gift cards?

    Yes

    Do they have a birthday drink or a discount for birthdays?

    They don't

    Which shopping center are they in?

    If you go near Honolulu CC, they are right across the street along the canal. Hope that helps

    Do they offer non-dairy options... like almond milk or soy milk?

    when i went they said they didnt. be careful they confuse condensed milk with almond milk, almost served me dairy.

    Does anyone know if they cater parties? How much the going rate is?

    I've seen them do events, like grand opening/employee appreciation for companies, but not sure about their rates.

    Can I bring my tiny dog inside?

    Yes you can

    Do they partner with any delivery services that can deliver to work place, like Uber eats or Grubhub?

    I didn't see the stickers yet. So I don't think so... They should thou haha :p

    What is creamy cake?

    Sweet fluffy whipped cream that they smear on the inside of the cup.

    Do they offer any sugar-free sweeteners/syrups?

    No but you can tailor your sweetness level. Some teas are pre sweetened and keep in mind boba sits in a slightly sugared water. Otherwise you can ask for no sugar or sweetness added.

    Is there a way I can call in my order ahead of time?

    Definitely! But sometimes the lines get really busy

    Does anyone know if they do some sort of delivery?

    As of now, they don't offer delivery

    Do they have non-dairy options for their milk teas? As in an alternative of cow/animal milk?

    They recommended pure teas, fruit teas, fruit smoothies or sparking water for non-dairy options

A great high-protein, lower-carb way to start the day! The salad had a nice variety of colors, textures, and crunch from the pistachios and onions. It also came with a small cup of sweet and savory dressing that tied everything together beautifully. The smoked ahi spread was fresh, flavorful, and not overly fishy. It was served with a slice of freshly toasted garlic bread that was warm, fragrant, and perfectly crisp without being overly toasted. // Wailua Moana Açaí Bowl So refreshing! Easily one of the best açaí bowls we've had. The texture was thick and smooth with a great balance of fresh fruit, crunchy granola, and healthy fats from the nuts. Every bite was delicious. // Matcha We ordered both the regular matcha latte with coconut foam and the strawberry matcha latte. I was so disappointed they no longer offer the lilikoi matcha- I know that flavor combination would've been amazing! Hopefully they bring it back someday. The matcha itself was on the lighter side compared to richer ceremonial matchas, but it was still smooth, well-balanced, and not at all astringent. It paired really well with the oat milk, and both drinks were enjoyable. There was a line out the door during breakfast/brunch hours, which shows just how popular this place is. Despite the crowd, the service was friendly and efficient, and we were able to grab a small table to dine in. It's located on the upper level of the Royal Hawaiian Center, making it a convenient stop while shopping in Waikiki. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu (hoping the lilikoi matcha will make a comeback too)!

    Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.
