Kung Fu Tea - KUNG FU MILK/ MILK GREEN TEA - Bubble Tea Near Me - Santee, California

I'm not sure what happened with my last review, but it's not showing up. But let me do one more. One of the guys in this location hold the cups not by the body, but by the mouth of the cup with his fingers inside it. And this is after he's touch money, their screen & other parts of the counter. Me & my dad thought it's just one time, but no, he did it multiple times moving cups from one place to another. Very unsanitary. This needs to be addressed. This person is working tonight, Feb.2,2022. The guy wearing with the black shirt with blue clouds on the left shoulder. read more

Santee was in need of a great tea place and Kung Fu Tea has taken on that challenge and they have succeeded like they always do! *Does Kung Fu moves* STORE: It can be an easy miss if you are not familiar with the area (Speaking from experience lol) but it is in the same shopping center as Good Year car center and Takka Sushi. This location is about the same size as their Convoy location but is definitely more spacious! Love that the inside is bright with lights, Fans on hot days, TVs, Cute "photo worthy" wall and an adorable sitting area where they kinda ask for you to remove your shoes. Great place to hang out and study! MENU: I believe the menu is the same as their Convoy location. Lots to select from and you truly can't go wrong. Quality tea and flavors and they add extra love to each drink.. at least that's what I assume since I have yet to get a bad drink from them :D. - I normally go for their milk teas here w/ boba. It is always a great balance of tea and sweetness. Boba is always cooked perfectly and I am always wishing I ordered more than one. - My boyfriend tends to get their coffee drinks. When it comes to tea places you dont normally expect good coffee since that is not what they specialize in but their coffee drinks here have been consistently great. Very creamy and full of flavor! If you like a stronger coffee flavor you can get it with coffee topping! WORKERS: They always have the sweetest workers. Always professional, approachable, kind, and great at what they do. You go Kung Fu Tea! I don't know where you find these employees but they're always awesome! NEGATIVE: Uhmmm... nothing. OVERALL 1-5: Location (outside): 5 Location (inside): 5 Appearance (product): 5 Service: 5 Taste: 5 Mouth feel: 5 Overall: 5 Would I come back?: uhhhhhhh.... yes! read more

I love the drinks here as well as the service. Prices are great and they often have specials going on, like bogo drinks. They even offer samples and are very helpful if you have any questions. No coffee here, which is a bit of a bummer, but the rest of the drinks are great. You can customize your drinks, I usually go with light ice and 25% sweet. Great addition to the area, worth checking out. read more

worst experience ever! as we walked in, we weren't even greeted, the first thing he said was "do you have a mask?" to my 10 year old sister & we politely went back & grabbed one. Anyways we placed our order and got our drinks. The boba tasted kinda off and so did the drink So I ordered another drink and she asked if I didn't like it and I said no and didn't refuse to pay for the second drink. I got a thai tea which is the middle usually it's an orange color and it still tasted very off. The drink was bad and the boba was expired or something. I got a Thai tea from another place and look at the difference in color. also then I see him proceed to help another customer with no mask until I said something about it. very disappointed in this place. used to be my fav read more

Kung Fu Tea - Thai tea orange one - Bubble Tea Near Me - Santee, California

I come here every Monday and Saturday. I love their drinks and the customer service is great. I recommend ordering on the app though because this place is always packed and can take up to 20 minutes to make your drink when they are busy. Plus you get awesome discounts through the app and you get them quick. The place is clean and smells good lol. I've tried several boba places and none of them compare to this place. Plus they are very personable. The lady on Mondays knows who I am ten minute I walk in the door. read more

I got a large coconut milk tea, light sugar (whatever the 30 percent one is called). Thanks Jack M. for the inspiration. I really enjoyed the drink and it was almost as good as their taro one that I had at their Kearny Mesa location. I don't think the location matters, its just that their Taro is insanely good. Ample parking lot. And they rock the same Eames style chairs that I have at home, so needless to say I loved the decor. Drink was served with a friendly demeanor and a smile. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Two taro milk teas with light ice, light sugar, no boba. Best taro milk tea of all time! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Santee, California

Just like the first KFT in San Diego, I give it 5 stars! The place is extremely clean and well-decorated. I like the layout a lot! It's a good place to chill and hang out since they have board/card games/Jenga. Really love that they use non-dairy milk, especially since many of the people I go with are lactose intolerant. Plus, you can reduce the sweetness of your drink and the amount of ice in it. The customer service is great! The workers are very friendly and helpful. I understand that they just started and will make mistakes with some drinks but they will fix it right away! Parking should be no problem, either. read more

Usually when I go to get boba tea I'll get matcha milk tea with boba, but this time I decided to try something different and I'm so glad I did!! The winter melon green milk tea (less sweet, 70%) was everything I wanted. The drink was perfectly sweet & all of my friends drinks were very well made as well. I went on a Friday night and it was busy but the drinks still came out very quickly and there were still open spots to sit. The shop was clean and not too loud- so an easy place to catch up with some friends. So glad this place is in Santee! read more

We were so excited when we stumbled upon this location (shortly after it first opened) after eating at our go to pho restaurant in the same plaza. Santee finally has a boba shop! Our first time ordering drinks was on a Friday afternoon after lunch about a week ago. We ordered a medium half sweet iced winter melon green milk tea with boba (free topping with check-in) and no ice, and a less sweet (70%) hot almond milk tea ($4.25). We met the owner, Sin, who is friendly, took the time to get to know us, and ensured that our drinks were perfect. She even gave us a sample of the almond milk tea to make sure that the sweetness level was to our liking. We came back again tonight before having dinner at the pho restaurant and ordered a hot ginger milk, one of the few caffeine-free drinks. It was nice and hot and had a good amount of ginger flavor, but it cost $5, which is pretty steep for a 16oz, uncaffeinated drink. My first and only other Kung Fu Tea experience was at the Convoy location about six months ago. I had ordered a delicious iced winter melon milk tea with boba- supposedly not caffeinated- but I found out here that that drink doesn't exist. read more

Makes for a great small dessert, would definitely come here again. My favorite were the little shovels! Also tried the pomelo green tea, and was pleased to taste real pomelo at the bottom of the cup. Love that they use fresh squeezed fruit. read more

Yasssss honey! Finally boba in Santee! I have been hoping for this moment and it's finally here. I love the atmosphere, the decor is simple yet inviting. They were straight up like "hey if you don't like your order, let us know and we will hook you up!" I'm hype that this is available to me in my town! Like you mean I don't have to drive to la mesa, convoy or whatever?! Ok so I bought a boba for my step daughter the mango slush and it was super bomb. I liked the lychee and boba mixed, very refreshing! I ordered the boys a large strawberry slush with boba and they were so kind enough to spilt it in to separate cups without me even asking! Business will be booming once the word is out about this place. The only downfall is the parking because it's in a busy area and parking is tight! Other than that, Kung Fu- you're the real MVP! read more

The boba pearls are the perfect texture! The drinks are always so delicious! I would 100% recommend the coca cream wow

I love KFT! My go to in the winter melon green tea with boba. 70% sweetness and less ice. I literally order this every time I go KFT on convoy. Unfortunately for me, my drink wasn't very good at KFT Santee. It just tasted like milk and less ice turned out to be little to no ice. However the boba was great. I know they're new and still working out their kinks. So I'm looking forward to coming back and giving them another try. read more

Welcoming and friendly workers! Always a fan of Kung Fu Tea and their boba is so fresh and sweet. This is one of my favorite boba locations.

It was my first time to order from this location and the lady who took my order was really nice!! I asked her if she can separate the boba so I can store the other milk tea in my fridge since boba turns hard if stored in cold or not eaten right away. Thank you!! read more

Kung Fu Tea - THAI MILK TEA and WINTER MELON MILK GREEN TEA - Bubble Tea Near Me - Santee, California

The drinks here are always great and the service is spectacular. The owners here are super nice and spectacular and it really shows that they care about giving you the best products. My go-to drink is the Wintermelon Milk Tea with boba. They give ample amounts of boba here and the milk tea is fantastic. My family has tried almost all the drinks from their menu and everyone has loved it! Sometimes we leave this place carrying bags of drinks since it's always so good! read more

I really liked this place the first few times I tried it but the last few times I've ordered drinks with boba in them, The boba tastes like rubber and not soft like it supposed to be. I am not sure if they are rushing because they are busy or what. These drinks are not cheap so unfortunately I will not be coming back to this place. read more

My daughter just had her birthday so I asked her what she wanted and said Kung Fu Tea . So she told me where it was located and I was surprised how easy it was to find and lots of parking. Once inside it felt like you had stepped back in time. Everything thing was so authentic looking. My daughter and her friend loved their drinks. read more

Pretty standard boba place. The menu is not that large nor confusing. The staff makes an effort to be friendly, but obviously is not too sincere. The inside has a lot of asian decor, and there is a floor sitting area. I got a taro slush, which was made well, had good flavor, and the boba was pretty good...more of the thick chewy side. read more

I love that they have location in Santee because I'm not about to drive to Convoy just to get my boba fix! Drinks and food are good! I love their WOW drinks lactose free. Boba is great and no complains. Service is also good! Parking is limited cause it's located in a busy plaza and due to covid they have limited seating. It's a nice spot if you just want a grab and go type of thing. Staff are wearing mask and gloves which is great. Safety is important even if you're vaccinated, you just never know if people with no mask are actually vaccinated. Overall, expect this place to deliver satisfaction. read more

Bad service I had ask the lady in the front what does she recommend and she didn't have anything to recommend no wonder she didn't because the drink was nasty ! we had got 4 drinks and it was all nasty it had no taste . It feels like I was drinking water. Coffee was like water and the milk tea was also bad definitely not coming back read more

I love kung fu tea! Its probably one of the more better boba places in San Diego in my opinion. The review that I'm doing is the Santee location. I've been to the convoy location and I will say there is a major difference between the two. For starters it's a little smaller here, but it's also alot quiter. I always felt that the convoy location was too loud, and that's due to the amount of people and the volume of music they play. It seems a little cleaner here then the convoy location, probably because it's also newer. What I enjoy the most about this location is that everytime that I've gone so far, there was NEVER a wait for it. There's basically no difference in taste so if you're ever in the area and you want kung fu tea, come here!!! The flavors I've tried so far and enjoyed are the orange green tea, thai tea, taro slush, passion fruit tea, wintermelon green milk tea, and the taro milk tea. One thing I recommend is to make sure you get your toppings! They'll usually ask but it's always good to make sure you get your boba, lychee jelly, etc. My go to drink is the taro milk tea, less ice, with boba AND oreo!!! It is so delicious! Yall wont regret! Staff were pretty nice too so that's a plus. Overall a 4 or 4.5 I would say Staff:4 Environment:5 Food/taste:4 read more

My daughter went to get a boba tea and she was 1 cent short. They refused to give her the tea. I would understand if it were even 10 cents or more, but hell no. Worst run business. These types of businesses should be driven out. read more

I have been waiting for a good boba shop with non-dairy milk to open up in the east county because ya girl is lactose intolerant. I usually go to the one in Convoy and there is always a long line that goes throughout the door. I can see why because the drinks are really good, including the boba, so I was hoping their drinks are pretty good too at this location too. When I came in tonight, I noticed right away that the decor is really different compared to the one in Convoy. This one is more simple, clean, and traditional. It even has a sitting area where you take off your shoes and sit on a cushion. I think that it is very unique and cool that they have that. There aren't as many tables and chairs to sit, so it'll suck if it gets really busy. Since right now it is their soft opening, I didn't set my expectations too high. They messed up on my drink, as well as my sisters, but they were very apologetic about it. I also asked for 70% sweetness, but it tasted like 120% sweetness. Also, some of the boba was chewy as if it weren't cooked all the way. Other than that, customer service was great. Everyone working there was so nice and sweet! They greeted us right away and even asked if we wanted refills. Their deals for their soft opening (August 15-17th) right now is a free upgrade drink and for their grand opening, it's BOGO on some selective drinks. I'll be coming back for their grand opening (August 18th) and hopefully their drinks will improve! read more

I've never had any sort of boba tea in my LIFE before trying this spot out. I decided to go with the Kung Fu Milk Tea w/ Boba (50% sweet) since it's one of their best sellers. I really liked that I was able to customize the amount of sugar by percentage of what they normally put. I was not disappointed when I took my first sip, and I'm pretty sure I downed it in 2 min! I can't wait to go back and try the other drinks they offer! read more

My go-to drink here is the for sure is the coffee milk tea Boba with a quarter sugar. Coming in second is the Thai Milk Tea boba and I've tried the oreo, wow and that was definitely good but next time I'll order a smaller one because I could've done with less oreo if you know what I mean. read more
