Well maintained location, very sweet beautiful girl took my order, drinks were delicious, parking is crazy so be sure to be patient and careful

DoorDash order specifying special instructions for the crystal Boba request but yet they can't seem to get it right even though it's written
Lucy V.

This location could never get our DoorDash order right. We specifically put instructions on the order instead of honey boba put crystal Boba but yet they continue to defy orders that are specified on the request and note that it's also specified on the receipt. This is proof that they do not read the receipts and they are not through. Please do better.

Stopped by here for the first time while visiting family and I am now a fan! So many different options to choose from and all very delicious! There isn't a place to sit and hang out, it's more of a order and go type of shop but I don't mind too much. The service was quick and we were all satisfied with our order! Luckily, there is one close by to where I live in the OC. I'll be back to taste more of what's on their menu!

1st time here. Cust service is awesome, very friendly, patient and explained everything well when I asked questions. I think it was the owner who helped me and he was even giving me options to try. Peach mango tastes like a Jamba Juice smoothie. Consistency was good, not too icy or watered down. The dirty matcha was good. I asked for 25% sweet and light ice with almond milk. It tastes like matcha, not overpowering and the shot of espresso was light. I'll have to return to try their tornado and compare those to the other place I usually get them from and then I'll see. But overall, 5 stars! Great 1st impression and customer service!

Macarons & cakes
Anchal B.

The store was very bright and colorful as soon as we entered! They had such a wide variety of drinks and even food options on their menu. My friends and I chose a regular iced matcha latte, regular lychee slush, large cookies n cream shake, and a large strawberry matcha, all with boba. The service was excellent! They were patient as we were deciding and the drinks came out fairly quick. Would definitely come back!

The staff here are very friendly and they make the best available bowls. It's always a happy party for my mouth when I come here. I would highly recommend. The boba teas and macaroons are very tasty as well.

Inside

Walking inside the first thing I noticed was how clean they kept their store! The employees also welcomed up immediately upon entering which was nice. They have a huge selection of drinks, acai bowls, and macarons. it was a bit hard to choose from but my Mom just wanted a classic Milk Tea Boba with pudding. It honestly was pretty solid, had the perfect amount of sweetness to it and the boba was soft and chewy unlike other boba shops

Taro Milk Tea and Thai Tea
Elisa L.

My recent visit to Its Boba Time was unfortunately underwhelming. The staff were not friendly at all, and I was particularly disappointed with the Taro Milk Tea. However, their Thai Tea was passable. Overall, I wouldn't consider returning.

Norwalk was in desprate need of local boba shop. This Boba Time location is amazing. Ive tried so many different drinks and they've all been delicious. Even thier coffee drinks are really good Staff is always very nice and willing to answer any questions. 10/10 will be coming back for more.

My brown sugar boba tasted so terrible. Never coming back here again.
Destiny G.

My brown sugar boba was not it. Tasted bad. Service was okay, but never going back! Tasted as if she made it in 1 minute.

As I got it for to-go to be consumed the next day, intentionally got it without milk as I added the milk myself at home. Lovin' how both the wintermelon and oolong tea flavors stood out strong.

I got the Oolong Milk Tea, and the tea quality was really good. you can actually taste the oolong instead of it being overly sweet. The boba pearls were fair/decent and paired well with the drink. I also tried the Thai Tea Slush, which was refreshing and good overall. I just wish the Thai tea flavor was one notch stronger so it came through a little more. Service was great... all the workers were friendly, welcoming, and fast with our order. As for the ambiance, its definitely more of a quick grabandgo tea spot. There are a few small seats and tables where you can sit, socialize, or wait for your drinks, but its not really designed to be a place where you hang out for hours. Overall, solid spot for authentic flavors, good quality tea, and quick service. Would definitely come back!

The interior is modern with two tables fit for 2-5 people and a bench for waiting. They have a self-order kiosk but you can order with a person too. The grapefruit tea was refreshing and had great flavor without being too sweet or bitter. I got 25% sweetness which was perfect. Aloe was an additional 75 cents. The music was good. The drink had actual chunks of fruit too. The bad: I ordered wintermelon tea but they ran out. I also wanted to use the rest room but it was out of order. There's no outdoor seating. The interesting: The cup has a paper seal but also a plastic lid on top. Suggested tip auto starts at 22%. They have tea leaves out on display so you can see that they brew tea themselves rather than use a powder. They have a red bean frappe as a seasonal flavor (are red beans a summer thing?).

Yolo's Café has quickly become one of our favorite spots for matcha! My husband and I usually get…read morethe Banana Matcha and the Biscoff Cookie Matcha, and both are incredible. The matcha flavor is just right not too overpowering and the cream cheese cold foam is seriously TO DIE FOR. Our favorite has to be the Banana Matcha, though! We've also tried their croffles, and we decided to share one... BIG mistake LOL. Next time, we're definitely getting our own! The workers are always super nice and greet us every time we come in, which I really appreciate. They also have a little punch card where you can earn a free drink once you fill it up, so of course we love that! The only downside is the parking lot. It fills up really quickly, and finding a spot can definitely be a pain, especially when it's busy. But honestly, that's a small inconvenience for how good everything is! We'll definitely be back!

I saw a TikTok about this cafe, and I was so excited to try it!…read more I got two Vanilla Lattes (Iced), one Matcha Latte (Iced) with Cream Cheese Cold Foam, one Matcha Latte (Iced) with Regular Cold Foam, and one Strawberry Matcha Latte. All of the drinks came with little breadsticks which I thought was so good dipping into the cold foams! The Matcha Latte (Iced) with Cream Cheese Cold Foam was delicious! The Cream Cheese Cold Foam isn't super overpowering, but you can taste it in your drink, and it tastes great. I've never seen it offered at other cafes, but I liked it! The Strawberry Matcha Latte had strawberry puree and strawberry bits in it so you had to drink it with a boba straw. The drink was good! The Matcha Latte (Iced) with Regular Cold Foam tasted great as well. It almost tasted like a Matcha KitKat so it was pretty good. The cafe itself was empty when I came in, but the cafe quickly filled up with big groups. There's plenty of seating and tables, and all the seats are padded and comfortable. I could see this cafe being a fun study spot. There's also some board games and manga if you come with a big group. Parking is a bit chaotic because the parking lot is all bumpy, but parking isn't hard to find in the plaza. The employee was very kind and helpful. We didn't know there was coffee on the menu until he pointed us to where it was. He made the drinks very quickly, and he was very informative about the drinks. I would come here again! There's so many drinks on the menu that I would love to try, and I love trying out a new study spot!

My friend has been coming here for over two years and frequents this location, yet she continues to experience the same issue with her drink orders. Unfortunately, this has become a recurring pattern rather than an isolated incident. Most recently, on 10/17 around 9 PM, she noticed that her drink was sitting on the counter, but her name had not been called. This has happened countless times over the years, and she has noticed that other customers who ordered after her often receive their drinks first. On multiple occasions, employees have looked at the name on her cup and walked away without calling it out. Her drink is sometimes only acknowledged after other customers have been served and an employee finally looks back at the drinks that are still waiting to be picked up. What makes this frustrating is that it has happened with different employees, making it seem like a recurring customer service issue rather than an isolated incident with one person. Her name may not be common, but every customer deserves the same level of attention and courtesy. If an employee is unsure how to pronounce a name, simply making an effort or politely asking for clarification would go a long way. No customer should have to repeatedly wait for a drink that is already sitting on the counter. I also want to acknowledge that the drinks are consistently well prepared and that one employee in particular, a tall gentleman who may be the owner seems to make a genuine effort to pronounce her name and get her drink in a timely manner. I'm sharing this feedback because a customer who has continued coming here for over two years should feel acknowledged and valued. This isn't about expecting special treatment; it's about receiving the same basic courtesy and attentiveness as everyone else. I hope management takes this feedback constructively and reminds the team to be more mindful when calling out orders. A little more effort and consistency in customer service would make a big difference in the overall experience.
