Boba Time was a quick pit stop on the way to LAX. I appreciated the ease of parking, cleanliness of the restaurant, and the amount of options and substitutes! Any boba lover will find something they like here. The house milk tea w/ soy milk 100% sweet was just okay for me. It was good but not great. I would try something else next time I come to this spot.

I believe I've been to their Irvine location before, but this was my first time at this (newly opened) location. There were only two workers and when me and my two friends got there, the store was relatively empty. The dude that was taking the orders seemed exasperated and just exhausted in general, but I've worked in the food industry before and I know how taxing late-night shifts can be, so giving him some grace for that. He still took our orders and got them out as soon as possible so definitely grateful for that. The drinks themselves were pretty great. They have so much variety, and they even have a top 20 fan favorites, which is helpful when you're undecided and don't know what to try. I am mega basiq, so I decided to go for the ol' reliable Cookies 'n' Cream and even went ahead and added, as a topping, an extra scoop of vanilla ice cream, 'cause this is America after all, haha.

Plastic residue that fell in a cup from poking the lid while I was drinking it and had to spit. It out.

I'm Very disappointed in the service and safety they provide. I ordered a drink that was delivered. I got the drink and when I sat down to drink it, I poked the straw to the top of the lid. What I thought was Boba was actually plastic residue from the lid . I called the store and they were very aware of the situation and said it was a manufacturing issue yet they still sold it . I also called corporate and they are also aware of the issue and said they were gonna reach out to the manufacturer to correct it. After I reached out to corporate, they told me to reach out to the store because it was a franchise so I did. I didn't get sick or had to go to the emergency department but I did feel something wasn't right in my throat ... I emailed them over five times. No response got no response. I called the store multiple times asking me for the owner leaving a message. Still no response. at this point now I'm leaving a review because they obviously don't care about any safety regulations, and knowing that there was a defective product and still sold it to me is horrendous criminal and a disgusting way to run a business. Here is proof and evidence of the plastic cup with the plastic pieces or some of the plastic pieces I swallowed.

Tiramisu crepe with mold

There was MOLD ON CAKES. I ordered a drink and a slice of tiramisu crepe cake. The drink was good. The cake however had MOLD. Meaning they just let the cake sit there in the shelf and didn't bother checking. It made me really nauseous afterwards. Will not be coming back here.

House Milk Tea, black sugar milk tea
Jenna L.

Ordered through DoorDash for pickup, and our drink was fantastic! Ready to pick up when we got there, and the staff (2 in the front, 1 making drinks) were super welcoming What we got: black sugar milk tea w/ 50% sweetness and regular boba, regular milk tea w/ 50% sweetness - both drinks were fantastic! Could have used a little less boba, but there's an option to adjust, so we will do light boba next time~ but the taste was amazing - regular size is $5.70 + $0.75 for large size Small store, so not much place to sit (actually not sure if I noticed any, but just grabbed in/out), but you can park in their lot if there's space (~6-10 parking spots). Great location because there's not much boba around 3rd street, except OneZo but that's in the mall and super $$ (7-8 for a drink)

Boba

They have really best and delicious boba I ever try, the employees were very kind. I recommend this place.

Laura C.

Parking: There's a small lot for the building right in front, otherwise, there's metered parking along 3rd. If you come during the daytime, you can find 2 hour parking on the nearby neighborhood streets along Sweetzer. Experience: Fast service and wide menu. They have milk tea, fruit tea, smoothies,m, milkshakes, frappes, pretty much any kind of drink you'd want in any flavor. They also had other desserts and acai bowls. I feel like their prices were also more reasonable than other boba places. I've only gotten their milk teas with boba so far, but everything sounds delicious! The restaurant is pretty much a storefront, so I wouldn't suggest coming here to sit and drink, but it's definitely a great to-go spot.

Taro milk tea with strawberry and mango boba
Fazil A.

This place was a bit overwhelmed when we showed up on a Sunday. I'm not much of a boba a·fi·ci·o·na·do but this place seems good. Be careful of people in front of you ordering smoothies or milkshakes or things like that. The staff can't seem to handle that. But we ordered boba simple and out drinks came out pretty quick.

Wow! I had heard how great this place was in the Equinox in West LA, then when we were staying…read moreover in West Hollywood, every time I walked by this Dialog location there was a long line. On top of that, an influencer who I always listen to highly recommended to go to this Dialog. So, my husband and I joined the long line, which went by fast and efficiently. All the food coming out smelled so good! And the menu had everything I love. On top of that, their prices are good, compared to their competitors. We each got a cafe mocha, that was made with the amazing TCHO chocolate, and we were really impressed. Then we shared the most delicious Asian chicken salad! It reminded me of my other favorite Asian chicken salad from Stanley's in Sherman Oaks. Before this, I had not found one in years that had compared. The service was also excellent, especially for a fast casual place, The owner was also walking around making sure each table was good. It was obvious that he really cared about his customers. I will definitely be coming back to this West Hollywood location, on top of trying the West LA Equinox Location. Also, this SunRose location on Sunset, is relatively new, since their original West Hollywood location had a water leak caused from the street which was out of their control. They certainly were able to pivot and thrive again. Not to mention, they have been around now for 2 generations. I always ask my favorite places, that it would be so great if they can come closer to me in Westlake Village. Can't wait to try more items. Next on my list to try is one of their bagel or croissant sandwiches.

Tons of seating, very clean. The service is awesome, it's like a well oiled machine there. They have incredible options for food, and the coffee is awesome. My boyfriend and I tried multiple drinks and food items over the three days, but my favorite was definitely the date smoothie. He had an incredible breakfast burrito that I got to try a bite of as well. I also loved the Americano with the unsweetened almond milk. Super bold espresso, but not bitter. Will definitely be coming back to Los Angeles for this place!!!

It has a cozy, tucked-away feel with plenty of seating both inside and outside, making it a great place to relax with a coffee. We ordered a mocha and a latte, and both were solid. They were well balanced and not overly sweet, which I always appreciate since you can actually taste the quality of the espresso. We spent some time enjoying the outdoor seating and it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the visit. If you're in the Melrose area and looking for a good coffee shop to unwind, this is definitely worth stopping by.

This place is so cute that I've driven by it a million times thinking it was a fancy restaurant - not a cute hidden gem coffee shop! This particular shop is incredibly popular and always full but if you're lucky you'll get a seat in their adorable little outdoor area. They have some belly up counter style seats along the sidewalk and also a side garden with a few tables & chairs, plus some cute cushions on the steps for ground seating. Once again, I'm obsessed with the aesthetics at a Verve location. They really seem to focus on rustic wood vibes inside and incorporating nature in a fun way. I always love their flash nitro cold brew here. It's so smooth and refreshing! I also tried their matcha and loved it. Plus their chocolate chip sea salt cookie was money. I'm sure I'll be back to Verve in WeHo! Really enjoyed it yesterday.

It pains me to give this 5-stars but truth be told, they deserve it…read more Let me preface: I am not from LA, I don't live in LA, I am not an LA POS. But Community Goods is often touted as staple POS behavior. Naturally, I scoff at the idea of driving to a ritzy part of town to wait an hour in line for coffee and Hawaiian roll sandwiches. And yet, that's exactly what we did. Given my preconceived notions of LA culture, I envisaged biting into a gluten-free, flavor-free, low-carb, lean protein, overpriced slider. I'd walk away disappointed, a bit poorer, and still hungry. Yeah, nope. First off, they had espresso tonics. Dead ass simple item but surprisingly hard to find on café menus. I absolutely love them. Note to self: look into making them at home. On a hot day like today, their espresso tonic hit heavy, almost made me want to grab a 2nd one (if it weren't for the line). But their slider stole the show. The photos don't really do it justice, and yeah it's not the fattest thing in the world. But bacon, eggs, and cheese on a roll is so simple, so greasy, so delicious that you really can't go wrong. Ok yeah you can get that literally anywhere. But something about how haphazardly and dgaf it's assembled, plus whatever the hell sauce it comes with, makes this slider just a touch elevated. The inside had fun little trinkets to window shop. Once you're in the little shack, the line doesn't feel as daunting. There are benches, you can look at the menu, you can shop a bit. The workers all had these sick black canvas (or was it denim?) overalls. I wonder if those are for sale? Seating is sparse, they've got tables along the sides and back, or you could eat in your car. The shack is small, don't expect to linger after getting your order. I probably won't be back. but all things considered, yeah this spot is hyped up heavy, but now I understand why.

Staff was very welcoming and line moved quickly - I would recommend going on a weekday if you can. There's limited seating in the back but customers came and went quickly so no one was standing around waiting for too long. The best thing we had was the egg sliders - the brioche bread was amazing and the sweet sauce and side aioli (?) went really well together. Make sure to get there before 12pm on the weekdays if you want to order it, as they switch menus offerings. The chicken sandwich was also really good but would recommend the egg sliders if you had to choose.

I've been here a couple of times and thought it was time to review this establishment. Located at…read morethe busy intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and Fairfax in West Hollywood; you won't be disappointed. It's a small space with a few tables inside with multiple large sliding glass doors that open onto the intersection on one side and a courtyard on the other side. It gives the place a nice urban feel with plenty of foot traffic outside and people watching. You order from one of the two kiosks outside of the kitchen. You select from the menu, make your payment, and assigned a number to notify you when your order is ready. They send messages to you via text. I was with a friend mid-afternoon on a Saturday. There was just a couple of people inside when we arrived. The evenings are usually busier with several people inside and on the outdoor courtyard which has a few tables. We both ordered cheesecake and we loved them. Very fresh, flavorful, and creamy in texture. I had the Oreo Cheesecake and my friend had the Mocha Cheesecake. My friend also had a Fusion Mocha Shake which he said tasted great with the right amount of mocha flavoring for his taste. We spoke to the owner/baker after we ate to compliment his desserts. I asked how business was and he said unfortunately slow. He mentioned how restaurants in general were having a hard time in the current uncertain economy. It has nothing to do with his products. The desserts and treats are great. If you can, give this spot a try. And the prices are reasonable considering the quality of the desserts. There's a promotion for new customers. Whatever amount you spend on your first visit, you earn that amount in credits towards your next purchase. It's all automated through your phone number. Open everyday until midnight. There are complimentary board games to play while dining. Limited parking in the plaza or street parking. It's great to have a quality dessert café in my neighborhood.

It's a petit venue with comfy couch seating, chairs and cute table that you can connect. We did that since there were about 7 of us. You order from the two kiosks or off of your phone so remember that they do not take cash as payment. There's so many fun options on the menus from scrumptious desserts, hot and cold beverages like teas and coffees. I had to have an iced boba beverage. So yummy. Our server who may also be the owner was very nice. Quick service, like we received text messages that your order has been placed and it was brought to our table within minutes. Incredible and he was very cheerful. While conversations were happening I noticed a cool shelf and on the shelf were games! Fun board and card games that continued the our mini party! This place was open until 11pm so it cool to have a coffee shop that stays open late. I took public transportation but there is underground parking at the venue, there are tons of parking meters and parking in the residential area. This place is YUMMY!

Drinks: We've tried the Strawberry Matcha, Black Sesame Latte, Corn Latte, Mango Sticky Rice Cream Tea, and Green Matcha Cream Top. A lot of cafes may do matcha, coffee, or tea particularly well, but Series A is one of the few spots where I think they excel at all three. My personal favorites are the Corn Latte and Mango Sticky Rice Cream Tea. Service: They push out orders really fast, even when the cafe is busy. Seating: There's a good amount of seating inside, but it's almost always full. A lot of people come here to study, so tables don't necessarily open up quickly. There are also quite a few solo customers at the larger tables, so you may have to wait around a little for a spot. Parking: The parking lot is small but actually a decent size for LA. It's usually packed, but people are constantly coming and going, so we've been able to find an opening. Series A is easily one of my favorite cafes in LA. Between the variety and how consistently good the drinks are, there's always something worth coming back for.
