Super underrated boba spot with delicious snacks! We ordered an almond milk tea 30% sweet, mango green tea 30% sweet, and the truffle fries extra crispy and omg everything was so delicious and affordable! The portion for the fries is super worth it too. The drinks were great and the boba was perfectly chewy. Everything came out quickly too. It's also located in a cute little plaza so will definitely be back. read more

In need of something refreshing I came up on this spot while in the area. I grabbed a tea refresher lychee flavor with boba. Tea had great flavor and boba was the good amount of squish. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was clean and spacious, lots of seating inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a variety of teas and some food options. Baristas were all nice and drink was made quickly.

This is a San Fernando Valley gem. Amazing drinks and food. Had the earl grey milk tea 50% sweet. It was sooo good. (FYI it was still a sweet so make sure you adjust the according to your taste.) Also the food was delicious with a great portion size. My friend and I ordered two things thinking we wouldn't have enough but we ended up taking so many leftovers. The popcorn chicken is phenomenal and the truffle fries were so fun. Service was great! Friendly and they offered lots of sauces to dip the chicken/fries. Definitely will be back. read more

Tried Li Cha Tea during my lunch break and left with a positive impression of the quality of the food and boba beverage I ordered! I have tried popcorn chicken at a few boba spots and Li Cha Tea's has been my favorite by far! I would recommend trying the chicken with the variety of sauces they have (the sweet garlic soy was one of my favorites). The taro blended drink with boba was also yummy and something I'd order again read more

Li Cha Tea - popcorn chicken and taro twister shake - Bubble Tea Near Me - Northridge, California

Parking for Li Cha is plentiful; what's hard may be finding Li Cha, though. The easiest way to find Li Cha (despite having Google maps) would be to go towards the middle of the plaza, where it's grassy. From there, it's right next to the Blue Palms Brewhouse. I had their Thai Iced Tea with quarter sugar - just perfect - with boba. The boba was definitely on the sweeter end, but their lightly sweet Thai tea was perfect. Service was okay; my friend and I were both not acknowledged for a bit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wi-Fi is available, though note that working here can be fairly difficult as the music is blasting in the background.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is an claw machine inside, though it was fully empty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Though it was difficult to work, they did have plenty of power outlets, which made it easy to find an open spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Mission accomplished! My husband says this is the first place that makes Thai iced tea exactly how he likes it. My roasted oolong was also fantastic, great tea flavor.

Do yourself a favor and go try their winter melon milk tea with boba. And their popcorn chicken. Just do it. Chicken is hot and crispy and we enjoy it best w sweet & sour sauce.

I think this is my new go-to boba spot. Location is a little tricky, but worth it. Lots of parking available so there's no excuse not to check it out! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super cute cafe, I would definitely bring my laptop here to work or even have a little friend date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are tons of places to sit inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can order at the counter but there is also a little automated kiosk. It took a minute for me to figure it out, but it was pretty easy once I got the hang of it. I ordered a wintermelon milk tea with boba, with the littlest amount of sweetness possible. The flavor was great and they really nailed the sweetness level. They have so many options for drinks on their menu so I am looking forward to coming back and trying out more. It did take a minute to get our drinks, but that was the only hiccup. read more

I've been a regular customer here, which makes this experience especially disappointing. I recently ordered delivery and both drinks were far below the standard I've come to expect. The Honey Peach Tea was extremely salty and had a strange soapy flavor, making it undrinkable. The Passion Fruit Tea was completely bland and unsweetened, even though both drinks were selected at 100% sweetness / standard. This feels like a clear drop in quality and attention to detail. I used to trust this place for consistency, but this order was a letdown and honestly a waste. I hope management looks into what went wrong, because this was not the experience that made me a regular in the first place :( read more

Tell me why I got their panda bear milk tea and got food poisoning leaving me sick for 3 days Then I gave them another try with their honey milk tea and the boba tasted so bad I threw it away after two sips. I regret not asking for my money back Never go here. But my friend never got sick from their taro so that's safe to drink read more

Came here to study with my friend while she applied for jobs. Told me that this place served good popcorn chicken and drinks and we decided to go here. I got the Honey Tea with grass jelly because the lady at the front said the honey tea was good with lychee but I decided to try it with grass jelly. My friend order the popcorn chicken and fries on the side for us. I tried the tea and I liked it! It was good! Refreshing and light not too sugary it was just right, however I don't think I'll get it with grass jelly next time because it was definitely hard to drink the jelly because as you can see on the photo it was floating lol so the drink/jelly ratio was pretty off haha. The fries were ok in flavor but the best part about the fries is that they are shoestring and those are my favorite! The popcorn chicken was good!! My friend was right, they serve good popcorn chicken and I can't imagine how it would taste with rice! Mmmmm riceee. The lady who helped me was good she was knowledgeable and shared what she thought was good as it was my first time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is quaint and quiet people studying and on their laptops and on occasion kids come in with their parents to get drinks[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . Overall I like this place and I'll definitely come back here to study and get some snacks as I do. For me it's 5 stars! read more

10/24/23 - This place was formerly a T4 tea; I remember going here a little over a year ago when it was still T4 and thinking how it was pricy, but they still had decent boba. I ordered a brown sugar milk tea- I didn't realize at first but after checking in on Yelp, I saw that you could get a free upgrade of your drink to a large size. Make sure to take advantage of that when you can! The drink itself was not worth it at its price (more than $6.50 after tax). I feel that there are better value and quality drinks at other places. The milk tea tasted like I was drinking more syrup instead of milk tea. The boba was not very good as it was small and hard. The inside, however, is really cute and clean, and the service is really quick. I got my drink right away and was given a stamp card for future rewards. If I do come back here, I would maybe try a simpler milk tea without boba. read more

Love this cafe!! Prices are reasonable and the portions are big! Definitely worth it! I've been ordering from them for a minute now and I always get the tofu, rice and veggie meal. Doesn't miss! Bobas are also great! Overall, they're a 10/10. read more

Wednesday 3pm...two girls working counter when we arrived. They were multi tasking. Drinks were on par. Served with a smile. Clean and modern. Love that they provide WiFi and outlet! We left 2 hours later. Ordered another round to go. Yes, their drinks were that good. There was a young guy that served us. He was friendly and made our to-go order quick. He yelled goodbye. Is he the one that makes the best appetizer s in the back too? He deserves a raise, or maybe his own place. Perfect. read more

I've ordered milk tea with foam for delivery before and it was great, which is why I decided to come into the store to get the exact same drink. Unfortunately, this time it was awful! The foam was disgustingly salty--so much that it completely ruined the drink. I honestly couldn't even finish it. I don't understand how the same drink can be so different depending on whether it's made for delivery or in-store. Really disappointing experience. read more

Found a hidden gem that offers $10 lunches in Northridge! Li Cha Tea has great lunch options, the portions are good too, plus they have mini hot pots! And of course, Boba Tea! It's Taiwanese owned as well. I had the katsu chicken cutlet but was tempted to get the mini hot pot (I'm having beef for dinner and it's a beef hot pot). Definitely worth checking if you're looking for $10 lunch! read more

As a first time experience never again. We entered and no one came up so we ordered via kiosk. But the person at the front decides to help the people behind us. The people behind us had their order come out first and they donn't know how to sweeten their tea. Ordered 50% sweet on two tea refreshers. One is just a sugar bomb and the other has no sweet. Kind of a waste of $13 imo read more

The boba here is alright, but the glazed chicken was not good. The rice was too soft.

My family frequently orders from this establishment via food delivery apps. I really like the food and drinks here but the below average review is because 7/7 times I've ordered, they always make at least one mistake. If I order Oolong Tea, they give me Oolong Milk Tea. If I order half sweet, they give me 100% sweet. When I order one Oolong Milk Tea and one Traditional Oolong Tea, they mix up the customizations between the two. It's really annoying and I thought it would be fixed once T4 became Li Cha - but no. I still give them chance after chance because of the proximity to my house and the food and drinks are delicious. I'll continue to order in person but I'll think twice..maybe 3x...about delivery. read more

Li Cha Tea - Example of incorrect order...again!! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Northridge, California

I ordered via Yelp Delivery. I ordered the Rose milk tea 30% sweet with almond milk, boba, and salted cheese foam, along with the gyoza, and a rice, veggie, and popcorn chicken plate. The tea was probably one of the better tasting rose tea iterations I've had, but was disappointingly missing the "real rose petals" advertised in the drink description. The salted cheese foam was delicious! I didn't experience any issues with the food portions, or seasoning mentioned in other reviews - and there is an option when ordering delivery to request extra seasoning and dips to-go, on the side. Which is par for the course for most Taiwanese popcorn chicken - when you go in-person there's usually a side counter with seasonings you can add to your chicken, or other fried treats. There was plenty of rice, veggies and chicken, that I had leftovers. And the price point for my 3 items wasn't bad either at 32 bucks! read more

Great service! Love the drinks and the food was very tasty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice area outside to hang out too[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Boba was good! Macaroons were not fresh though, I should have returned it but too lazy.

Given it was over 90 degrees in the valley again, we came to grab a little snack and boba to escape the heat! In terms of the super cold running A/C, moderate music, and indoor seating, it did the trick for us. We got the taro milk tea with pudding to avoid caffeine so late in the day (you can tell which options are caffeine free based on the lack of a little green leaf next to the drink names on the overhead screen), and it was a solid pick. The pudding was soft and lightly sweet, as it should be, and the taro flavor of the tea was mild and not too sweet, even at full sweetness! Now the popcorn chicken was awesome! It was all dark meat, without too much breading, well-seasoned, juicy, and fresh-out-of-the-fryer hot. The Sriracha Mayo was a perfect sauce to accompany it. My partner didn't love the Sweet chili sauce, though he usually prefers that flavor profile for his chicken sauces... He preferred the Sriracha Mayo here, too. It's too bad I didn't use the Yelp check in to upgrade the size of our drink, but we'll have to do that next time. I'd come back just for the chicken! read more

It's a nice vibe for a younger crowd for sure. The people seem nice, but I got there as soon as they opened so they were getting things ready, so they didn't really address me much as I walked in but just kinda wanted to know what my order was... The katsu cutlet was burned and had virtually no flavor, it did not look like the picture they have on their website. They give you a sauce with it, probably to make up for the blandness of the food. The Kyoto boba was pretty good, they do put a lot of the sphere boba I did enjoy it. Maybe their other food is better or later in the day, but i wouldn't go in the morning. read more

|[ l o w d o w n ]| 3.5 rounded up. Quite the snack gem for me, I really like the popcorn chicken 4/5 and fried fish filets 4/5 both nicely seasoned/flavorful and especially their garlic sauce *drool* (warning: it's extremely garlic-y but if you love garlic then u Gucci). The fries have potential but they've been kinda soggy each time I got them 2/5. The seasoning on there is good but not sure why it isn't crispier. The garlic noods were okay 2.5/5. I wish they had more food options like meals with Taiwanese sausages and tea eggs. |[ w h a t k e e p s m e ]| The boba here is more on the sweeter side and the tea not as flavorful as I'd like (more watered down tea). I usually get the oolong and it's okay when I'm in the mood for boba but I'd say what keeps me coming back here is prob the snacks and the sauce. Having free parking, awesome check in deal (large size upgrade), and loyalty card also helps. It's definitely nice to have more boba places that have snacks in the valley! read more
