I went to this place for the first time with my friends. They have such a variety of drinks. They have matcha, hojicha, fruit teas, hand craft milk teas, coffees, sparkling, and more! I tried their matcha latte with boba! And I really liked it I got 50% sweetness and it was perfect I usually prefer my drinks to not be too sweet. I definitely want to order this again! I really like that you were able to order a second drink just for $2 more! My friend also enjoyed their coffee drinks. They also have entrees, side dishes, dim sum, They also have desserts too as well. During the summer they have Shaved iced. I haven't tried yet but I'll have to try next time! Parking was a bit hard to find but they may have some street parking available They had indoor seating available. There was no outdoor seating

Blueberry jasmine tea. Not so great. Mostly syrup

LT9 is a Taiwanese spot in Old Town Pasadena on the corner of Union and Raymond. It has salty fried snacks, shaved ice, some desserts, a few noodle and rice entrees and some pretty good Hainan chicken. Got the watermelon meets Jasmine tea drink. Also, I've never seen milk jelly as a topping before anywhere in the 626, till now. But I got the cheese foam instead. It was empty when I was there Wed around 5pm. For Old Town that's unusual. Other places had patrons you could see through the windows. Maybe it would help the business if they put pictures of their food in the windows so people can see what they have when they walk by? Although the food was great, the service was a little tough. There was a girl who greeted me, but she was busy doing something. Since she didn't pause it to take my order, I went to one of the 2 ordering kiosks. She brought my food and drink, I enjoyed it. But when I wanted to order a Blueberry tea for Hubby, I couldn't find it on the kiosk and needed help. I rang the service bell, she didn't come. I could see her hands through an opening, washing kitchen utensils, I could literally reach through to get her attention, but I just rang the bell again. Louder this time. Still didn't come. There was music, but the bell was louder than it. I left that kiosk and went to the other one and thankfully found it. She came back out to give me my drink and that was it. A little more personal touch would be appreciated. There was other dishes I wanted to try. Hope when I come back, I get spoken to a little more. More personable experiences result in higher tip percentages. Didn't leave one for the 2nd item.

After having lunch nearby, my partner and I wanted something refreshing to sip on. We found this spot and decided to check it out. There were so many drink options on the menu. Ultimately, we went with two of their top drinks. The Sun Moon Lake Milk Tea has a ruby black tea base. It tasted milky with a hint of honey. We added panna cotta, which added a silky texture and made the drink better. The Jasmine Blossoms Milk Tea uses triple-infused artisan jasmine green tea. This one was fragrant and refreshing. It paired well with the milky jelly topping. Other than beverages, they serve a bunch of various foods such as dumplings, noodle soup, chicken rice, desserts, and more. I have yet to try any of these though. My main complaint is that they were majorly understaffed. Only one person was working on a Saturday, so we had to wait over 30 minutes just for our 2 drinks. I would only come back if the wait time is more reasonable.

Their collection of teas.

This place always has great food and has been highly rated. The drinks are great, and it's my mom's favorite. The drinks are freshly made with top ingredients. If you want to buy the tea leaves yourself, they have them. If you check out great places to eat in Pasadena, you'll find this place.

Street parking

Great selection, must be fresh as they are always busy. Parking can be tricky and you do have to wait ...plan for this! Worth coming back to when you have time!

At street corner in front of Metro bus stop. There's a couple of street meter parking a few steps away ($0.25 for 12 minutes) or there's higher paid parking garage right next door to this shop. Kiosk self-ordering. 5 Star. Great pricing to drink portion. Taste is decent, not overly sweet on regular non-customized request. I like the convenience of how they offer additional toppings and food items in addition to the drinks. 1 Star. Customer service. No employee in sight while Placing a kiosk order and waited around for 14 minutes thinking my order is being prepared in the back kitchen. After waiting excessively long, i rang the bell on the desk to get attention when a lady comes out without any greeting. She tells me she didn't see the order in the system. In the meantime another customer came in waiting for his to-go order pick up and she ignored me to help that customer first to prepare his order, without first checking the system to address my concern, telling me it'll take 5 more minutes to prepare my order. In the meantime I had to add more money to my meter parking since my time limit already expired. Customer service is severely lacking. Took 22 minutes to pick up my to-go order when it should have taken only 5 minutes to prepare.

Jasmine Green Tea

Really nice space and excellent boba drinks. Their drinks are not that sweet so I feel like I can indulge. The boba is chewy and just perfect!

Food the boba is always fresh and tea are strong. The service are always amazing . They are great drinks and place to study

Always a great experience! My kids ask to come anytime we're nearby. Great boba and easy to order. We use Too Good To Go, just make sure you look at pick up instructions because you use the kiosk to let them know you've arrived.

They offer a great deal through Too Good to Go (a surprise bag with 3 boba drinks for $6.99). We ended up receiving an Earl Grey milk tea with boba, jasmine green tea with crystal boba, and brown sugar latte milk tea with boba. The bobas had good flavor and texture but the teas were average. I asked for less sweet and so the only one that was pretty sweet was the brown sugar latte, which makes sense. To place your order, there's a standing kiosk and another one on the front counter. The woman working there was friendly and helpful. There was no wait when we got there in the evening so our drinks came out pretty quickly.

Amazing service! Delicious drinks! A must try! I love going here and trying different flavors. Nice staff and good food!

As of late October 2025, they're renovating so my partner and I didn't have a chance to experience the cafe. Only a front ordering area for now with a self ordering kiosks. There's plentiful of options which is nice, we had a bit of trouble deciding on the drinks but we ultimately decided on two that caught our eyes. We ordered the Sun Moon Lake Milk Tea with panna cotta & Jasmine Blossoms Milk Tea with milky jelly. Both drinks were very well made despite the lack of staff. Cups are big, sturdy, and cute. Both drinks were refreshing and not very sweet as both drinks were adjusted to 50% sugar levels. The respective toppings added to each drink is top notch as well. Definitely worth a look if you want a change from boba. Wait times for this visit did take quite long as there was only one person working. Pretty understandable since most of the orders ahead of us were food instead of drinks. Overall, would love to come back when the renovations are done. Seem like a pretty cute cafe & was told that the food here is decent as well. Prices are around the usual boba stores, not too expensive nor too cheap. Quality is good which makes the drinks high quality. This would definitely be a top choice whenever we're in the area.

Been here a few times and always good. Delish boba and not too sweet! Will definitely come back.

Savoy Kitchen is probably one of the most well known hole in the wall gems of outskirts LA. It's…read morebeen around since the early 1980s. My parents have been coming here since their hey days, and I apparently came here with them as a baby. Quality and authenticity of the food here is so good. First of all, we came about 40 minutes before closing. They were about to seat us outside, but then the waiter noticed that we had two babies int he party. He was so nice. As soon as he saw that, he told the restaurant we couldn't sit outside, that we should be inside because it was cold and dark out. He earned major kudos from my mom with that thoughtful gesture. We ordered 2 orders of the hainan chicken with rice, beef curry, fish with cream sauce and pasta, and duck pasta. Everything was amazing. The hainan chicken rice was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The chicken was tender and juicy. It was a clear favorite in the group. The beef curry was filled with umami, and the beef was braised so tender. The beef curry was my dad's and my favorite. My husband and daughters enjoyed the duck pasta the most. It had the essence of a spaghetti, which the little girls loved, but the uniqueness of duck which my husband loved. My mom really liked the fish in cream sauce. No fuss or frills, just delicious food and fast service. If I lived nearby, we'd come much more often!

The only complaint I have for Savoy is the seating but that is not enough to remove a star. I…read morerefuse to judge a place negatively simply because they are so good at what they do, they run out of seating. Parking is easy enough and plentiful if you use the neighborhood but be mindful of pedestrians. You can see school kids walking around during the weekday. The food is where this place deserves my respect. I'll have to come back to taste the rest of the menu but the three I got were delicious. Roasted Cornish Hen: crispy and savory. The meat is a little dry but it goes well with the three dipping sauces they provide as well as the moist seasoned rice that it comes with. It may be a bit dry for some people but that's the riddle of the Cornish hen, it's quite difficult to have it be moist AND crispy. Baked Escargot with Herbed Butter went very nicely with the bread it was paired with. The slight sweetness of the bread coupled with the herbaceous butter and snail made for a decadent bite every time. I'd love there to be more butter so that it doesn't run out before the bread does. Baked White Fish Filet was moist and delicate in flavor. You get a choice for the sauce: tomato, cheese, or cream. We chose cream and it worked very well. Both the cream and the fish were delicate enough but still presented their own flavors. Will definitely come back. Service is quick. You write your name and they try to seat you ASAP. DO NOT COME PARTIAL!!!!! They will not seat impartial parties during rush hour. Remember that and fact it in!

Definitely use the sauce tamarind sauce on the table to add more flavor and add the green chilis if you like your food spices and a little goes a long way.

The dining room has transparent plexiglass shields by every other table, but it felt like I was sitting shoulder to shoulder by a stranger. Organic Hainan Chicken Rice: This is a solid plate of poached boneless chicken. While the chicken is tender, it's slightly dry due to the white meat. (Full disclosure: As a die hard fan of dark meat, they should provide an option for all dark or all white as many places do.) The organic and skinless meat has its health benefits. The sauces are really good. There's a thick, sweet soy for drizzling. The scallion ginger sauce is bold and zesty. The garlic chili sauce is sweet and tangy. The rice is fragrant and steamed with garlic and lemongrass. You have the choice of soup or salad. The soup has nori and tofu. Next Time: On my next visit, I want to try the Gyudon, a rice bowl with beef, onions, and a sunny side up egg. Parking: The huge lot has plenty of spaces and there's an underground garage to the side.

The Dan Dan noodles have flavorful peanut sauce with it perfect noodles texture. Would recommend add extra sides for proteins, which we opted for pork belly and minced pork. The belly was extremely tender with thick juicy slices. The minced pork was equally palatable. They're generous in portion for being sides, we even packed some home. We obviously didn't skip their Hakka Mochi for dessert, which were still warm chewy yet moist when served and covered in overflowing black sesame and peanut powder. I wasn't usually a fan of black sesame but decided to give this one a try anyway and ending up no regrets at all! The powder was such spoiling mix of sweet and salty in one bite.
