Inside
Brisa B.

Tried their taboo tea and it was incredibly refreshing. They were quick to take our order and educated us on the sweetness. I prefer drinks half sweet, but with the amount of sweetness I chose to do 25%. It was perfect! They have claw machines to play which are cool. They have plenty of seating for medium group.

Menu

A lot of unique flavors and cute shop with good amount of seating but here is why I took stars off: - half sweet was still quite sweet - the boba texture was a little too soft for my liking - we got no ice and there was a significant amount of liquid less. I guess I shouldn't be surprised but it seems like they could've told us ahead of time so we weren't surprised about it. - we were the only ones in the store but it took quite a long time to get our drinks

Large Thai tea with boba
Tina S.

The main appeal to this place is their late hours especially on weekdays. They're open from noon till midnight so if ya need that late night boba run! I recommend the Thai tea. It was really good and had the right bitter tea taste. The boba did make it sweeter for my preference, all their drink come preset with toppings so ya'll have to let them know adjustments. Also the large was huge!

Mr. Bean
Allison L.

Got the Mr. Bean and it was a bit too sweet for me, but I like the flavor, reminds me of the 7 leaves drink. The boba was too soft for my liking. Wasn't too busy on a Saturday afternoon and it's nice how they are open late. I remember coming a few years ago and getting the popcorn chicken as a late night snack. Also had the BTS drink before, but I remember it also being on the sweeter side. Interior is clean and has a decent amount of seating. Plenty of parking

Old review: taken nov 2020 Mr. bean w boba: Comes w crystal boba. I really like the thick texture along w the pandan flavor. The boba was pretty decent. Dynamite fries: Pretty good! I like the furikake on top. Popcorn chicken: This tastes like kfc popcorn chicken w some chili powder on top. Nostalgic. There could be more spice though. Phoenix: Way too sweet. Strawberry lemonade: Same. Super sweet. Rosebud w boba: Really nice rose flavor. I'd say one of the better rose milk teas in San Diego! Boba is good. Bora bora: I don't think I like the peach milk tea combo and this was supposed to come w butterfly pea tea.

Interior
Danielle S.

Tried the boba here because it's next to the hotel we are staying at. This place is small and had tons of decor inside. There are small tables and a seating bench. We ordered the king Kong (milk tea with coconut jelly, egg pudding and boba) and the avolanche (avocado slush with coffee jelly). Their milk tea is really good and the combination with the jelly, boba and pudding works well together. I really enjoyed it. The avolanche lacked the prominent avocado flavor (per my husband). He would've liked for it to taste more like avocado. He also didn't care for the coffee jelly that was inside. For him, it just didn't go well with those two flavors combined. The shopping plaza that it is what crowded, so we just ended up walking over from our hotel. Their parking lot is shared with other restaurants and businesses.

Cute little boba shop right next to Brute Force Games which my husband and I enjoy stopping into to see what new board games they have. Luxe has a pretty extensive menu for those who love a variety of options for drinks and snacks. The interior isn't large but accommodating for a decent number of guests. The decor is very nice with a beautiful set up for those Instagram-able moments and pictures! I ordered a very standard Thai tea and my husband ordered the Fiji tea. On first impression of the Fiji tea it was very green and full of toppings, and reminded us of one of those cocktails thay usually do not blend well with the sheer number of ingredients in it. My husband wasn't exactly a fan unfortunately. The excessive toppings and mix of fruit flavors were a miss for him. Most flavors were muted or completely washed out, and the toppings were a little much. I ordered a Thai tea which was good, however it was very sweet. For the future I know to definitely cut the sweetness down by at least 50%. Would I come back? Maybe since it's it a good location and does have quite a few boba items I enjoy On their menu.

Luxe Fried Oreo (7pc)
Chanel Y.

Cute lil boba spot that's open late, which is super convenient. Lots of options to choose from. I recommend the fried Oreos, if you're really craving something sweet nice staff and clean store, I'll definitely be back!

Got a few boba drinks here and they were good! I also ordered the popcorn chickens and fried tofu. They were crispy. I like that i am able to add chili peppers to the chickens and tofu! They weren't too spicy but good enough for my liking! Staff were quick, but i think if you ordered more than just a boba, then it might take a little bit of time - especially if you order like popcorn chickens. The boba shop has a chill vibes. It's a nice place for those that want to grab like a late night snacks/drinks. Bring cards or some games if you want to sit around and chill with friends.

Aloha and Golden Tiger
Sharon L.

Below average drinks, prices, and ambiance. The entire boba menu was filled with artficial looking colors and flavors. We got the Aloha and Golden Tiger. The Aloha was actually an okay fruit tea, but $6.50 is really steep for a regular ($8.50 for a large!?!) The Golden Tiger tasted pretty artficial and not worth $7.50 in my opinion. Lots of other boba places around that are cheaper and better quality tea. The service was fine and our drinks came out decently quick. I saw some other reviews that thought the decor was cute but it just felt really overdone and tacky to me. There are lots of Lunar New Year decorations around but the furniture and decor pieces all felt pretty cheap and didn't fit well together. Lots of parking available which is a plus. Overall, not a spot I would want to spend time chilling at.

Menu as of Jan 2025
Stephanie L.

PARKING: Parking is plenty! It's in a strip mall type of location. I went later in the evening and there were lots of spaces to park. SEATING: Definitely a space to hang out for people who want to chill. There's less than 5 tables if I remember correctly. But it didn't seem like many people were staying. You could though if that's more you're vibe after ordering boba. SERVICE: Quick! The woman helping was nice and greeted me. My milk tea came out quickly as I even got the XXL size. FOOD: I got an XXL Bora Bora for around 7$. Not a bad price for the size! Unfortunately, it does taste more milky than expected! I know some people like it that way, but I'm a bit picky. Not bad for a new boba shop though. The crystal boba was really good! Would come back to try their other drinks if I was in the area. OVERALL: Nice pit stop for a new boba shop! Liked the vibes and can't wait to try out the whole menu if possible!

Golden Tiger & Luxes Coffee / Vietnamese Cofee
Jenifer B.

Great boba and service here! Brian was super nice and helpful and made us feel very welcome coming in. My boyfriend and I got the golden tiger and subbed boba for the topping and a Vietnamese iced coffee. Both were great drinks and the boba was good too. They have really cool items on the menu so I'm excited to go back and try more!

Eli J.

Solid boba. Decent price. My daughter loved the variety of flavors of the boba pearls.

Ask the Community - Luxe Boba

Are there gluten free options? I saw your menu on Postmates- many unexpected items were labeled GF. However, your website doesn't mention GF at all. I was so excited but it's prob too good to be true. I'm Celiac & don't want to get my hopes up.

Do they have oat milk? I don't like non-dairy creamer.

Hi Samantha, at Luxe Boba all the milktea are non-dairy, and I also have soy milk or almond milk as an alternative as well. I just don’t have oat milk. Thank you

Will you ever bring back the durian drink? it was my favorite and one of the main reasons started coming here :'( still come here lots, just miss my fav drink!

Hi Melanie, thank you for supporting Luxe always. And yes, you can always request your fav durian drink “Sweetie” is the name for that drink. Whenever you order online or in store, tell the cashier person you want to order “Sweetie”. Even if online… 

Does the kitchen close at a certain time?

Hi, Luxe Boba’s kitchen stay open until closing time posted. Except on some family emergency events, then we’ll post it that we’ll close early. Otherwise you can order foods up to closing time. Thanks

Is the non-dairy milk vegan? I know non-dairy could just mean casein free, which still comes from a cow. Does the non-dairy milk come from an animal?

I'm not sure but they also have soy and almond milk available as alternatives.

Do they have popping boba or just tapioca pearls?

Hi Melinda, yes we do have popping boba. Strawberry and lychee flavors. Thank you

Do you use high fructose corn syrup on your drinks?

Hi Krystal, to answer your question, No, we don’t use high fructose corn syrup or any fructose corn syrup whatsoever. We’re a family boba shop with my family recipes and we cook our sugar in house so our sweetness level is not crazily sweet compare… 

Is the sweetie made with real durian/syrup/powder? are the ingredients sourced high quality or towards a teazone/a brand like teazone?

Sweetie is actual durian. All of their drinks use the actual fruits. They live up to their name and make sure that their ingredients are quality. Tea zone is nowhere near Luxe Boba standards.

Any dairy substitutes for the milk teas? No soy as well?

All milk tea are non-dairy except Thaiger (Thai Tea) and Marble, but you can always ask for almond or soy substitute

Very cute shop. Perfect for meet up, study, work, or just chill with a nice cup of matcha latte!…read more Staff/baristas are super friendly and helpful. All their lattes are amazing but my personal fav is the matcha. Excellent quality matcha and you can definitely taste it! Been here a few times just to grab some lattes and pastries to go but love the vibes. Will be back someday to just chill and enjoy the environment.

Pretty damn busy coffee spot and it was hopping on a Saturday afternoon when I popped in here…read more So many people in here studying, catching up, etc. And it was like Asian central so I felt right at home except for the fact that I might have been 25+ years older than everyone in here lol. I am in the closet about my age and still think I am like a kpop kid lmfao. Who am I kidding here?? Its a great space, but would agree they could probably cram in a few more tables. There's also another back area, and more tables back there. Guy helping me was very patient and helpful. He was also handsome too, always nice to have eye candy, even if I could have been his ajima!! I ordered a hojicha cloud as I love a good hojicha and I prefer it over matcha. I don't like sweet drinks so I asked him how sweet and he responded that the drink has 15g maple syrup in it. I froze like a deer in headlights because I didn't know what that meant but was impressed with how precise he was. I told him to just make it half that. I waited a few minutes and then my iced hojicha cloud came out. The foam on top was delicious and the hojicha was well made. I guess I could do with 7.5g of maple syrup! I sat outside as they put a bunch of chairs out and enjoyed the people watching but also some of the Miramar Air Show going on too. They came real close and did some neat tricks! Parking is a bit of a problem in this shared lot but overall, this was a good experience and I would return. Nice coffee bar with good drinks and good vibes!

We've been wanting to check out Long Play Hi-Fi for a while, and after finally finding it (which is…read morepart of the experience ).. It's got this hidden, almost speakeasy vibe. You ring the doorbell, wait patiently, and once you're inside, you realize this isn't your typical coffee shop. It's a place to slow down, enjoy the music, and savor your drink. Monique and Danica were both amazing. They're warm, welcoming, and you can really see the passion behind what they do. Danica is also the DJ, and her eclectic playlist made the whole experience even better. One of my favorite parts was just sitting there watching our drinks being made. You can see the care and craft that goes into every cup...even the Kuramoto ice is beautiful. The Matcha Americano completely changed my perception of matcha. The Kyoto cold brew pour-over was fascinating to watch and incredibly smooth. We loved it so much that we came back the very next day. This time I had the Midori, and my brother-in-law loved the Highball, especially the yuzu. No laptops. Trust the DJ. Drinks are meant to be enjoyed fresh, so take your time. If you're looking for a quick coffee run, this isn't it. But if you appreciate great coffee, good music, and people who are passionate about their craft, Long Play Hi-Fi is absolutely worth the visit.

(Dw, from the inside, you can see outside well) Drinks were really good and carefully made, song selections were unique! We ended up chatting with one of the customers there too. Chill atmosphere 10/10 recommend. There's also free wifi here, signal isn't very good. :) Parked in free street parking about a min walk away.

Read an update from the local LV writer that this place had remodeled and reopened. I was amazed as…read moreI had driven by so many times not noticing the place. After heading over and trying a few items really regretted not going g earlier. Ordered the coconut Sunday with coconut and mango ice cream. Best coconut ice cream! It is served w/3 scoops plus coconut meat in a coconut shell. 5/5. We also ordered the sticky rice w/mango sundae w/mango ice cream. 5/5 We ordered to take home the coconut jelly and the bar bin for home. Enjoyment. Again both were great. Cute interior design with a few seats and a couple outside. Parking may be limited at busy times- we did luckily find one next to the building but didn't see any others. Staff was super friendly, answered questions for items we weren't sure about and advised how to heat up our take home item.

Super good desserts…read more Cleanliness and consistency is the issue First few times I've had the original I had so much coconut shavings and mango and coconut milk and when I ordered side of rice it was a good amount Today it was small amount of rice with a few drops of coconut milk and 3 piece of coconut and 4 pieces of mango it's not like my first 2 times And my ice cream part didn't even have coconut milk If you go here it will randomly be good. Cleanliness especially bathroom looks really dirty and unorganized. As busy as this place, they need to clean up and add more quality place to hang out in. Still very good desserts, like I said the issue now is consistency and cleanliness Thank you guys
