I'm not a huge boba/milk tea fan so I guess take this as a review from someone with pretty superficial knowledge. I tried two drinks, a Vietnamese iced coffee made less sweet and a 3/4 sweet peach... peach something. I forget the name, but the menu is small it's the peach one. Both were fantastic. Definitely on the sweet side but not "this is melted ice cream" sweet like I've had at some places. I'd still probably get the peach one 50% next time. The Vietnamese iced coffee was very intensely flavored, had a great texture, and for whatever reason wasn't as hyper-caffeinated as some I'd had. I've had some Vietnamese coffees that made me feel like I was going to bounce off the walls, this was more mellow. But it still has the strong coffee flavor I'm used to. The peach drink was super refreshing, full of peach flavor, but again the level of sugar wasn't cloying at all. And the little chunks of peach added a nice texture to the experience. Again, not an expert on milk tea/boba, but this was probably some of the best I've had, definitely the best I can remember. Inside the shop is a bit spartan but there's seating for a few groups. You order via a kiosk and then someone brings the drinks out to the counter, so it's a bit impersonal. They take credit cards and the parking lot is a little tight. read more

A quaint little boba shop tucked into a small plaza. There are two self-service kiosks at the front to place your order, and the drinks came out fairly quickly. We ordered: - Brûlée Green Milk Tea: 4/5 - Be sure to mix it well, as the brûlée layer sticks thickly to the sides of the cup. It had a nice balance of tea flavor and rich brûlée sweetness. - White Peach Oolong Milk Tea w/ Crystal Boba 4/5 - My drink was initially served without the crystal boba, but the staff quickly provided it on the side in a separate cup. The peach and oolong flavors paired well and tasted refreshing. I'd definitely come back to try some of their other drinks! read more

I had a very disappointing experience at this location. I ordered a premium brown sugar drink with oat milk and tiramisu foam, but instead received a regular milk. When I went back to politely inform the staff about the mistake, the employee named Chloe was visibly annoyed, made faces, and told me she could not provide a refund or replacement because she had too many orders to handle. Also no one answers the call as i did call multiple times before heading back to the store. Mistakes can happen in any busy store, and I would have completely understood if the issue had been handled professionally. What was upsetting was the dismissive attitude and lack of customer service. As a paying customer, I expected a simple acknowledgment of the error and a reasonable effort to correct it. Instead, I felt ignored and treated as if I was inconveniencing the staff for bringing up a problem with my order. I hope management addresses both order accuracy and the way customers are treated when issues arise. A little courtesy and accountability would have made a huge difference. read more

I had a craving for a sweet drink, and this was the only place nearby so I stopped in. It was in a small, not busy plaza across from Target. There were no one inside. You order from the kiosk on the counter which I liked. I waited for about 5 minutes and someone came out with my drink. The shop felt kinda depressing because no one was there and it was super quiet. I ordered the matcha, half sweet, with house milk. It came with boba. The matcha drink was ok, but the boba was really good. It was the right amount of chewiness and sweetness. I enjoyed it, but overall it was nothing to rave about. I would be back if I'm nearby again. read more

Felt the urge to try out a new place out of nowhere and decided to come here. The ambiance of the shop has a classy, minimalist feeling to it (with a lot of white), while the service comes in the form of a kiosk. There's a curtain where I believe the actual employees worked behind, as one of them would occasionally come out to deliver the drinks. I decided to get the Pinky Milky before taking some time to do some work at the location. The internet was working fine from what I could recall, and the drink itself was okay though a little sweet. Overall, everything was fine. It's not something too special, though I do remember the drink coming in one of those fairly tall and relatively sturdy cups (the ones that aren't super flimsy). Wish that I could've brought the cup home, but I'm not entirely sure if this is a place that'll consistently be on my radar. read more

Very typical bubble tea place. Nothing outstanding but the kiosk order was efficient and drinks met our expectations. Four of us ordered different drinks and all were good. I like how they have a few tables so we can sit down and take our time enjoying our tea while having some conversation with friends. read more

Got 3 teas here golden passion, white peach oolong and strawberry green tea. All were really good! The golden passion had a strong fruit taste but not over powering. The white peach at 75% sweetness was plenty sweet. There was a nice fresh strawberry puree with the strawberry green tea so you know it's not just syrup. We ordered from a kiosk so there wasn't much interaction with staff but they were pretty quick. We'd definitely come back when we are in the area. read more

I was in the mood for a boba tea, so I checked out this place. I found the listing on Yelp of teas near me that were highly rated. This is in an unassuming strip mall that always has a bit of parking available, but it is a busy complex, and it's not a gigantic lot. The ordering system is all by kiosk, though I do think you can order by app or website, maybe. I ordered the Jasmine Green Cloud, which was jasmine iced tea with a matcha milk foam on top. They let you pick how sweet or iced you want it, and I opted for 25% sweet, which allowed me to taste the tea without it being overly sweet. All of the actual drink making is behind the curtain, then someone brings it out to you. I did feel like it took a bit of time though they did seem to be pretty busy! read more

This was a very upscale boba shop! Clean restrooms and an efficient ordering system, although our orders did take a while since we had such a large party. My friend recommended the Tiramisu Green Milk Tea, and I was blown away by the rich texture and delicious flavor! It felt like I was drinking a dessert, although the sweetness was not overpowering. Enjoy! read more

There is a decent amount of parking. The staff was friendly and the drinks didn't take too long to come out. The interior is clean and there are some seats. You order through the kiosk.

Definitely would come here again. read more

Cute boba shop! There are some stools, tables and a long bench for you to enjoy your drinks. I really liked the simplicity of the decor- it was sleek and modern. You order at the kiosks & someone will magically bring your drinks out. The cups and lids are super nice quality. I ordered the strawberry matcha latte with oat milk 50% sweet. It was yummy, but still a bit sweet. Will definitely come back to try more drinks read more

I walked into the shop at about 2 PM and there's nobody in front. However, there are two tablets where you can place your order. I ordered a Osmanthus Oolong Tea with House Milk. It was a hot day and this drink went down well. In fact, it didn't last very long because I drank it quickly! The shop is super clean. I walked down to the back to find the bathroom and there was a sign saying to "see employee for code". So I'm thinking that there's nobody up there and no bell so I'm going to have to somehow grab somebody's attention. Luckily, the door wasn't locked so I was able to use the very clean facility. I lady came out from the back and called my name and she handed me my drink. She was courteous and had a smile. She then turned around and headed back as there was likely another order to be made. Overall I'd recommend M TeaShop. I'll be back again in the future. read more

My friends and I came in on a Friday afternoon and we ordered our drinks via kiosk. My friend and I enjoyed the jasmine tea with matcha foam- we enjoyed the fragrant the jasmine tea was and the matcha foam was a perfect touch with it, it was balanced and refreshing. Service was quite fast -came out shortly after we odered. read more

Minimal aesthetic, indoor seating, ordered on kiosk. What we ordered: - Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea - 75% sweet but recommend 50% or 25%, it's sweet, boba is soft and chewy (4.7/5) - Jasmine Tea w/ Matcha Foam - jasmine is fragrant, balanced, more like matcha cheese foam (5/5) read more

Nice quiet boba shop, good decor and roses on the tables. We enjoyed the drinks. The classic vietnamese coffee with boba was strong and smooth tasting. Nice and chewy boba. The osmanthus oolong milk tea with boba was floral and creamy, great flavor. Overall happy with the drinks and vibes, it's a good spot! read more

A very decent milk tea shop in this Hillsdale area. A very chic and very minimalistic store design. I got the Chatramue Thai Tea. Apparently Chatramue is the original Thai Tea brand. It's interesting though because I don't see anyone else marketing their Thai Teas as Chatramue's except this place. Overall I thought it was okay. The flavor was too light, and got overpowered by the cream. I still think you can find a drink that you'll like here! read more

This review is based off of 1 drink and 1 drink only lol Their white peach oolong milk tea is SO GOOD! Refreshing, light, and perfect for the hot summer weather. I ordered mine 25% sweet with regular ice and that sweetness level was perfect for me - not too sweet! My sister ordered the choco slush which she thought was good but just a little too rich and decadent for her. It's really more of a dessert than a drink. Also make sure you mix it a little bit before drinking because I tried a sip of hers and got straight chocolate syrup (unless that's what you want haha). Would definitely come back again and probably order the exact same thing! read more

This has to be your next boba and matcha spot to try! Located in Cambrian Park, South San Jose, M Tea Shop offers aesthetically pleasing and creamy drinks. Creamy, rich, and absolutely irresistible -- the Matcha Swirl Brûlée (aka Matcha Tornado ) is a must-try for any matcha lover. I've been back several times since they opened, and the drinks have always been very consistent. The matcha powder they use is ceremonial-grade, in which appears to be appear a nice green color with little to no bitterness. Whether you go for a ceremonial grade matcha latte with tiramisu foam or indulge in your sweet cravings by choosing a bold brown sugar matcha latte with perfectly chewy boba -- there's something for every kind of matcha mood my personal favorite is the matcha tornado! What I really love about M Tea Shop is the quality of the drinks - you can always taste the strong flavors of the matcha, oolong, and so fourth. The space is super cute too, with a calm, cozy atmosphere that makes it perfect for catching up with friends or just enjoying a peaceful solo matcha or boba moment The service is also quick and the staff is very kind and friendly. If you're still reading this, go get your matcha & boba fix you deserve it read more

White Peach Oolong Tea 7/10 Matcha Tornado 9/10 Golden Passion 9/10 Avocado Slush 9/10 Salted Coffee 6/10 Coconut Flan 8/10 I got all less sweet since I prefer my drinks to be less sweet! Avocado slush is creamy, perfectly sweetened, and a great amount of coconut with crystal boba. Golden passion is too tart for me but refreshing. It was lightly sweet. Matcha tornado was strong and lightly sweetened to my liking. White peach oolong is good and not too sweet. Coconut flan was night thick and not too sweet with a light hint of coconut. Salted coffee was a nice pick-me-up. I like my coffee on the darker and less sweet side. The salted coffee was a bit too sweet for me. However, it was creamy. My favorites are the Avocado Slush, Golden Passion, and Matcha Tornado. read more

Their menu has so many yummy sounding drinks. I decided to go with the white peach milk tea. I ordered it half sweet and less ice cream with caramel boba. While it was very good, I did not taste any peach flavor. My son said he tasted it a little bit. I'm not sure if maybe they use a peach syrup and used less because I ordered it half sweet or if it's just a very mild taste in the brewed tea. The boba was perfectly cooked. It was still a good enough tea that I'd go back to try others and would probably still order this one again. I really want to try their different Vietnamese coffees. But it was late in the afternoon when we went and there was no way I'd be able to enjoy it and still sleep tonight. read more

I've had a few different teas and matches here and they've always been fresh and refreshing. I never had match before but saw the strawberry matcha and it was so good!

My friend and I were looking for a new milk tea shop to try out and picked this one as it was close to her house and looked promising. Inside is on the smaller side - there are some bar stools near the front of the shop and a few tables/chairs in the lobby area. It has a nice, relaxing atmosphere and I could imagine hanging out with some friends/family or date on a nice day out. Ordering is done at the kiosk with staff preparing drinks behind the curtains inside the kitchen area. They offer a good variety of drinks - teas/milk teas, matcha series, coffee/espresso and some specialty drinks. M Teashop also offers milk substitution, toppings/foam and customization of sugar/ice. After looking through the menu - we both decided to try the same thing - the brown sugar milk tea. I ordered mine with boba, while my friend did not. After waiting a few minutes, the staff (owner?) came out and informed us that the boba would take another 10-15 minutes and asked if I wanted to wait or get some other topping instead. I opted for the lychee jelly and our drinks came out a few minutes later. It was delicious! I enjoyed the flavor and lychee jelly is always a nice addition. Since it was a nice day out and the shop was quiet, we sat there and had a nice time catching up for a bit. The staff came back out and since she noticed we were still there - asked if I wanted my boba now. I laughed, thanked her and said I'll have to try it next time since I already had the lychee jelly. I thought that was very nice of her! A few weeks later, I went back and ordered the brown milk tea again - this time with the boba. Again, the tea was delicious and the boba was a great consistency with a nice, slightly sweet flavor. Yum! read more

Happy a new boba shop opened up in the area! The ordering system is done all via kiosk/iPads and the menu is well rounded and less complicated than other shops. We got the choco slush (yum!) and the Thai tea tornado (was able to adjust sweetness which is not always the case with Thai tea). Both were really good but quite pricey (around $7 without any toppings). The inside seating area is more spacious than you would think and parking is easy with a shared lot. The only qualm I have about this place which knocked off a star is that they took quite a while to have our drinks ready - I'm used to many other boba shops, working a lot quicker. Will definitely come by again when I'm in the area! read more

Ordered via Doordash yesterday as I really wanted to try this place! We are planning on trying it in person sometime soon too so might update review too! I got the Matcha Tornado and the Salted Cheese Viet Coffee which I saved in the fridge for the next morning for work. The Matcha Tornado was SO good! Idk why but I was craving a matcha brûlée type drink and this came up on the search as THE place to get it besides Izumi. The Salted Cheese Viet Coffee was also super good and also is good in the fridge until the next morning! There wasn't an option to get it without ice, but I wish there was so it wasn't as watered down the next morning. Still delicious though! read more

Plenty of seating and a good amount of drink options! I tried the Berry Cloud, at 50% sweetness, which was a nice refreshing drink and a good mix of slushy and tea flavor. The staff were quick to make the drinks and there was plenty of seating. There's both tables and high tables available for seating. The shop has a shared parking lot right in front of the shop. There's a bathroom and two kiosks for ordering. Music isn't too loud, perfect for studying if needed! read more

A new locally owned and operated boba shop in SJ! The interior is very aesthetic and the name is a play-on-words of the Vietnamese word "Em" or "big sister". A cute homage. Here's some drinks that I have tried: + ChaTraMue Thai Tea (5/5): I loooove the brand "ChaTraMue" and the fact that they use it here is awesome! Rich and custard-like Thai Tea. Surprisingly my favorite drink here. I normally never order Thai Tea from boba shops, but I think I might come back here to have it again. + Avocado Slush (4/5): Very creamy and clearly made with a fresh avocado! It's refreshing and has a pleasant sweetness. However, the lychee jelly overpowers this drink for me. Replace it with boba for less sweetness! + Pinky Milky (3/5): Strawberry milk made with fresh berry puree and pink cheese foam. A simple drink made with quality ingredients. I imagine this would be great for kids. + Cheese Foam Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea (5/5): Fragrant and creamy! No problems here. I loved the taste of the oolong and the cheese foam was so decadent. Perfectly rich. + Mashed Taro Milk (4/5): This drink is THICCCC. If you love fresh taro, this is the drink for you. It's like a whole taro dessert packed into some fresh milk. read more

Maybe a 3.5? We got the brown sugar boba matcha latte and green milk tea with egg pudding. The matcha was a bit strong for my liking, but my boyfriend liked it. The green milk tea sounded interesting as it was supposed to have a hint of matcha, but it kinda tasted like a bland jasmine milk tea. The egg pudding was really good tho! I wanted to try some other drinks, but the menu was really limited. A lot of drinks on their physical menu wasn't available, even though it wasn't listed as seasonal. I do agree with another review that the location does seem a bit sketchy. I came on Saturday around 6:30pm and it was dark and empty outside, with a few cars. It's kinda in the same parking lot as smart & final and across is Target. read more

Been here twice and I will come back again! M TeaShop is a new local boba shop that is worth checking out. I heard about this place from a friend and I'm happy I tried it! It is a small business and the workers seemed very friendly and happy to see me. I can tell they care about their customers and the quality of their drinks. The interior is clean and aesthetically pleasing. There are two iPads when you order inside. There are many drink options to choose from, but it seems matcha is popular. I ordered the matcha strawberry and I was surprised by the amount of strawberries! The drink was refreshing and wasn't too sweet. The matcha tasted good quality as well. My boyfriend ordered the matcha tornado which he thought was good. I've also tried the Pinky Milky, which gave me similar vibes to the matcha strawberry, but without the matcha. I liked the strawberry cheese foam and thought the drink was refreshing! I do think the strawberry flavor was light, but I added lychee jelly to make it more fruity. read more

Was really craving a blended matcha drink. Unfortunately our usual go-to was closed so we decided to try this spot. The matcha tornado is ok. You don't really taste the matcha and it's more icy than creamy like Izumi. The cream is also a little weird tasting. Probably wouldn't opt to get this again. read more
