Fluffeh L.

Phenomenal costumer service. I asked if they were hiring and the staff were very open to the question! The boba tasted great. I liked the ombré look it had (before I mixed it lol). The place is clean and well lit. Cute LED decoration on the wall. If you don't want a sugary drink I recommend the Sunset iced tea with 25% sweetness. It has jasmine and is caffeine free!

I was eager about visiting this place because their menu looks fun (and it is). It's a small & lowkey place but very clean and the service is quick. You can either use the kiosk to order or go to the counter and tell one of the workers what you want. I would rate it as 3.5 but there's no option for half a star so gave it 4 instead of dragging it down to 3 stars. The reason why I think this place isn't exactly a 5-star boba place is the flavor richness. The matcha milk tea boba was so diluted that you can barely taste the matcha. I felt like I was drinking matcha flavored water with boba. I'm not sure if I would ever come back to give it a second shot, but I was underwhelmed by the washed out flavor so I'm not too eager to go back. I hope that the owners see this review and maybe just work on their recipes a bit to make the flavors richer. If they can fix that issue I think this boba shop can actually be one of the best ones in town since they offer so many flavor and boba varieties so it's a fun place to be for boba.

First time here and staff is very friendly. It's pretty close to work since I work at the Kaiser Hospital down the street. Location in in the same lot as Chik Fil A. I bought the Peach Lychee Fruit Tea and it's very refreshing. They didn't add too much Ice which is Perfect! I will most likely come back to try the other items on the menu. Curios about the Grapefruit Iced Tea.

Highly recommend this delicious boba place! Many different drinks are offered and the staff is SO friendly and care about their customers/drink quality. Thank you so much for creating a welcoming and chill environment! Will definitely be added to my go-to list!

This boba place is impeccable I enjoy going every single day and talking to all the staff members. Marcus and Mike are quite honestly the best workers you'll ever meet. they are super sweet and kind to all the customers. he is fun to talk to and whips up some 10/10 boba. Every time I go there is never a disappointment they all treat me and my friend with care there is never a day that has gone where we didn't get amazing service. He has given me some new drink recommendations and each is better than the last. Make sure to come and check out this boba place and meet these beautiful and kind people. This Boba time spot also has a beautiful interior and exterior SO MAKE SURE TO CHECK THIS BOBA PLACE OUT!!!!!

First time here, and I loved it! I ordered the milk tea Boba and the red velvet macaroon. The Boba was amazing, I loved the brown sugar boba pearls and the milk tea. The macaroon was ok, it didn't taste fresh and it was a little bit chewy but next time I'll get a different flavor hopefully it's better. The place was very clean, the staff were very nice, fast service.I will definitely come back.

Been to quite a few Boba Spots around Los Angeles and I was beyond excited for the Downey location to open for quite some time. From the time I arrived to my departure, I was greeted with an amazing service from all the staff members during my visit. Everyone was professional, kind and efficient in the efforts as a team and I think this location has the potential to strive in this community. Overall, the ambiance and vibe of the store was upbeat, yet chill. Most importantly, the staff made me and my friends feel welcomed into the store. Something I hope for the team to continue to carry on as they begin their new journey at this location. Excited to return here and wish the team the best of luck and thank you the It's Boba Time Downey team!! Service - 5* (Great staff, friendly vibes, amazing energy!) Interior - 5* (Yes, it's brand new, but I always have to admire and appreciate a clean store!!!) Location - 5* (Located in a spot where there's a lot of things to enjoy but you should pass by Boba Time Downey for your Boba Fix!)

I tried the Galaxy Iced Tea, Oreo milkshake, strawberry shake, and the strawberry yogurt smoothie. The Oreo milkshake wasn't overly sweet and had a smooth, creamy vanilla flavor that I really enjoyed. The strawberry yogurt smoothie was the standout -- perfectly tart, super refreshing, and honestly addicting. You can tell they're consistent with their flavors. What really elevated the visit was the customer service. The staff was incredibly nice and helped guide us toward drinks that matched our preferences, which was much appreciated. Great spot to hang out with friends and try a variety of drinks. Would definitely come back. read more

I really like this place, however it was my first time coming to this location. There is parking available. You can order on the machine or with a cashier. I got my drink really quick at this location despite there being other people here. I decided to try something new so I got the Strawberry matcha. It was pretty decent, and it was made quick, but I probably wouldn't get it again. Thanks for the service though. read more

Love my local Boba spot. They have plenty of signature drinks to try or get customized drinks. Have not had anything bad, their matcha drink wa snot bad. Usually always pretty quick, even when not pre-ordering ahead. Ordering is easy, all orders come through their touch screen kiosk with no pesky hoo-man interaction haha Parking is usually not bad, since Chick-Fil-A takes up most parking. read more

Boba tends to be perfectly soft and just the right amount of sweetness. The boba here is usually fresh and the young man at the register who seems to be supervisor or store manager, is always polite and welcmes customers with a smile. The two young girls seem a little lazy and no manners but I come for the drink so I just ignore them and take my drink. read more

I'm a big fan of horchata (and not the biggest boba tea fan) so I got the Horchata Smoothie and it was great. The place is lively and overall has a good vibe to it. What's really important and what I care about the most is their service. Efficiency is about doing things quickly while getting orders correct, and at the same time upholding fantastic customer service. The staff members did such a stellar job with my order, and while I was waiting for not even 3 minutes, they're knocking out everyone else's orders and gettin' everyone in and out as soon as they can, and it was promising to see. On the slight chance I'm in the mood for something as basic as a thai tea or even another horchata smoothie, this'll probably be the only place I'll be going to. Great work to the team! read more

I did a walkthrough to look at everything, then I came back to the front counter and noticed the signages on the side wall about purchasing a cup first, then adding toppings and filling up your drink, then coming back to the front counter to get your drink sealed by an employee. I waited in line patiently, as the employees were all in the back doing various things, and the guy who was bringing out the boba and changing the trash finally came out. I noted that he was wearing the same gloves he did while taking out the trash and started to ring customers in front of me up and help seal finished boba cups wearing those same dirty gloves. I was disgusted, but since I drove a long way for this spot, I decided to stay, as he is only touching the outside of the cup anyway, and I will just wipe it down later. Anyway, I bought a cup and filled it with some ice, my favorite milk tea - jasmine milk tea, and boba. I do wished that they had a couple other toppings I liked though. I was ready to have my drink sealed and waited patiently for the employee to seal it. Overall, it was a good concept they have going on and it is one of those one time experiences at least for me, but they have to work on their cleanliness because there were 2 employees in the back cooking food for customers while eating themselves while cooking in front of it and the other employee wearing the same gloves doing everything, even when changing / touching the trash.

This coffee shop absolutely exceeded expectations…read more From the moment I walked in, the customer service was amazing super sweet, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without feeling overbearing. You can tell they care about the customer experience here. The interior has this "black gold" aesthetic that gives it a semi-fancy, elevated feel while still being comfortable enough to settle in for a few hours. I stayed and studied from 12-5pm and it was honestly the perfect setup. They have three desk-style tables specifically great for working, and each one has outlets, which made it super convenient for a long study session. I ordered their #1 seller, the caramel latte, and it did not disappoint. Really well balanced.. smooth espresso flavor with just the right amount of sweetness, nothing overpowering. The highlight, though, is definitely the outdoor seating area. It's beautifully designed and decorated, making it such a nice spot for an afternoon hangout or a casual meet-up. Calm, aesthetic, and very inviting. Overall, I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely be coming back!!

Searching down the map for the drive back from LA, saw this interesting thing. And great reviews from others sealed the deal to try it out. Online ordering with pick up time was very convenient. Driving down, got a text about 5 min before pick up time, just perfect. Cute and super clean store. Friendly gal grabbed the order for me and I was off in no time. Got the party pack (30) for the school staff, and of course had to try for myself too with a regular (9). Ended up being an hour and a half before I got around to trying our box of 9. Looked interesting enough. Kid took his bite and said yum. I took mine to the sink (lol) to catch any crumbs, but surprised me that it's not just a ball of a regular donut. This had an amazingly satisfying crispy crunchy exterior, with an airy chewy interior! I can't imagine how much better it would be when freshly made at the store! Even an hour and a half later was delicious... Me and the kid quickly devoured our 3 each and struggled to leave 3 for wife before we had to go to an activity. When we returned, wife was also raving, what was that, where did you get it? Trust me, you will not be able to eat just one. I'm greedy, I definitely want more than 3 next time! Donut ball itself wasn't overly sweet, just delicious period. I guess it's the toppings that add the sweetness. Only tried the classic (honey cinnamon, walnut). The other flavors will probably be amazing desserts, but I think all I need is just the donut ball by itself. Honey and walnut adds a bit of sweetness and bite, but the base donut ball is a shining star on it's own in my book! Good thing was the honey was mostly on the bottom and walnut crumbles on top, so you can rub as much or not of those as it fits you. Few days later, each of us were still talking about this greek donut. Just looking for a reason to grab this again. Father's day is coming up, I think it's time for a Party!

That delightful crunchy fresh donut texture is to die for! But all the toppings are also great - both very clear and good flavors. Everything worked well together and no flavor overpowered any other. It was clean, spacious and comfortable inside. Great AC on a 100 degree day in March (this is our new normal??) The person helping us was friendly, informative and so welcoming, and took their time telling us the origins of the donuts, explaining the flavors and the options to us. Very sweet, very kind! We came in at 2 on a Tuesday and they had just finished making a fresh batch (they are made every 30 minutes), so we lucked out on that and got to try these at their peak! Really wonderful. This will definitely be a stop for us when we are out this way again. Might even be worth driving for as a special treat from time to time!

Prepare to embark on a boba journey like no other at It's Boba Time! This delightful haven has completely redefined my boba expectations, and I'm absolutely thrilled to share my glowing review. Upon stepping into It's Boba Time, you're instantly enveloped in a vibrant and inviting atmosphere. The friendly staff, adorned with smiles, adds to the welcoming ambiance, making each visit feel like a joyous escape into the world of exceptional bubble tea. Let's dive into the star of the show - Boba Time's tapioca pearls. These little bursts of joy are prepared to perfection, striking the ideal balance of chewiness and sweetness. The meticulous attention to detail from the skilled artisans behind the counter is evident in every sip, ensuring a consistently high standard of quality. The menu at Boba Time is a testament to creativity, boasting a diverse selection of flavors and customizable options. Whether you're a purist who loves a classic milk tea or an adventurer seeking unique blends, Boba Time caters to all tastes. Personally, I'm hooked on their signature "Timeless Taro Delight," a heavenly fusion of taro goodness, creamy milk, and just the right touch of sweetness. Boba Time isn't just about the boba; it's about the thoughtful details that set it apart. The use of premium teas, the precision in crafting each drink, and the commitment to fresh, natural ingredients make every sip an extraordinary experience. Presentation at Boba Time is a visual treat, with drinks served in eye-catching cups that showcase the layers of flavor. The environmentally conscious touches, such as the use of eco-friendly straws and sustainable packaging, highlight Boba Time's dedication to both quality and the planet. In a sea of boba options, Boba Time emerges as a shining star. It's not just a place to get a drink; it's a sanctuary for boba enthusiasts and a celebration of bubble tea artistry. If you haven't experienced the magic of Boba Time, treat yourself to a sip of joy - you'll be coming back for more!!! read more
