Signature Sticky Rice Flavored Oolong Au Lait
Jailen T.

We got the Signature Sticky Rice Flavored Oolong Au Lait and Signature Black Tea Au Lait, we both thought it was just ok. I think mine would've been better with full sweetness. The boba was a little over cooked. They did have samples on the counter so I was able to try the SSR special which I thought was wayyy better. The custard was cooked nicely and the oolong milk tea tasted better than what I ordered. I want to come back and try that with custard so if you're unsure what to get, maybe order that. Lastly, they conveniently have mobile ordering and my order was ready before I got there!

The shop was very cute and clean but would not recommend if you wanted to catch up on studying/work as there was only one table. They have a game you can play only on weekdays where you can win bogo, stickers or discounts. I ended up winning 10% off my order which was very nice. I decided to try the genmai matcha with matcha jelly and my bf got the strawberry matcha latte. Both were pretty basic and didn't really wow us. The genmai matcha was extremely bitter and I could not finish it. It was a cute shop to try out but I don't see myself coming back. Service was really good though!

Brown Sugar Mist
Jack M.

I finally made it to Mosa Tea! I had the brown sugar mist. The tea came with "Tie Guan Yin Oolong Tea, Osmanthus Honey, Brown Sugar Cream Foam" (Mosa Tea, 2026). The tea was pretty good. It was not what I was expecting. The flavor was good, but the brown sugar cream did not make the beverage as creamy as I wanted and it did not dilute well in the tea. There were little tiny bits of the cream floating in the tea, but like I said, it tasted very good. The young lady at the counter was very nice. There's a decent amount of seating inside and no outside seating.

Woooo!!!!

Heard about this place, figured welcoming the new shop to the Convoy community. Here was my experience. AMBIANCE Parking: Plaza-style parking--pretty manageable depending on the time. Seating: More of a grab-and-go spot, but still enough space to hang, study, or chill. Vibes: Convoy is a very busy place with a lot of eateries and activities. The spot itself is really clean! A modern tea shop with a focus on quality. You can tell they take their drinks seriously--everything feels intentional rather than rushed. FOOD / DRINKS: Pistachio Mist (Recommend) This one stands out. It's made with genmai green tea topped with a housemade pistachio cream foam. The base tea is light and slightly toasty while the pistachio foam adds a creamy, nutty richness on top. The balance is what makes it work--it's not overly sweet, just smooth and layered. CUSTOMER SERVICE Friendly and efficient. Staff keeps things moving but still takes care with the drinks. TL;DR OVERALL 4 Stars. Good choices, delicious flavors, all in a reasonal price. If you're looking to try something different from your usual order, the Pistachio Mist is worth it--creative, balanced, and easy to enjoy. TIPS: * Go for their signature drinks--this is where they shine!

Four Seasons Milk Tea
Jasmine H.

Mosa tea has delicious teas. I come here specifically if I'm craving the matcha jelly, which I haven't found elsewhere like how they prepare it. Service is quick and easy, though can be slowed if it's busy. The cafe is very small with only a couple of tables and seats, but I've still seen people choose it as a place for working.

Tie Guan Yin Oolong with Boba
Allison P.

I Mosa definitely will be coming back! Pun fully intended... Mosa Tea is a beautiful boba spot located in Kearny Mesa. They specialize in Taiwanese teas and quality ingredients! Their branding is super aesthetic and it really shines in the shop. There are also some tables inside if you wanted to stay to work/study. I tried the Tie Guan Yin Oolong Milk Tea with Boba. I believe this is their signature tea! With deep, roasted undertones, the tea really shone through with this one. Bonus points for having a non-dairy option! Their boba was perfectly chewy and warm- great texture!

Fresh Apple Tea with Lychee Jelly (L); Genmai Jasmine Green Au Lait with Pistachio Foam (R)
Bethany M.

Very good tea - we tried a fruit (apple) and the fresh milk (genmaicha) to get a feel for the Mosa flavors. Both were well-balanced; we selected 50 percent sugar, and these drinks delivered a nice level of sweetness without being overpowering. As for toppings: the lychee jelly is really sweet, but tasty/fragrant; the pistachio cream is unique - I really enjoyed how it complimented the nuttiness of the roasted flavor of the genmaicha.

I originally came here hoping to try their Uji Chestnut Matcha, but sadly, they were all out. That didn't stop me from coming back a few more times though lol Overall, everything I've tried is pretty tasty. I love that their drinks taste more like tea than milk, which is what I like. The baristas are so sweet. Every time I go, they're happy to answer questions and even offer samples with toppings. I like their jellies surprisingly (I don't usually like jelly in my drink) Here's what I tried: - Genmai Green Milk Tea - 10/10 Would order again, especially with that pistachio foam on top! (50% sweet) - Matcha Latte with Pistachio Foam - 8/10 Their matcha is good with oat milk. (75% sweet) - Brown Sugar Mist - 6/10 Interesting, but not my favorite. - Strawberry Matcha Latte - 7/10 The strawberry is a little tart, but I still prefer their regular matcha. (50% sweet)

grapefruit tea and oolong jelly tastes medicinal . Its aight 2/12/26
Hannah L.

Strong tea flavor but the drink I got was an acquired taste. They also ran out of boba by the time we came around 8:30pm (30 minutes before closing) on a Thursday. - Grapefruit Bloom 柚香四季 ($6.75): Roasted Buckwheat Four Seasons Tea, Tie Guan Yin Oolong Jelly, Grapefruit, 25% Ice, 50% Sugar -- roasted flavor with bitter/tartness of grapefruit aftertones. Jelly was kinda medicinal tasting, but again, acquired taste. I didn't mind it, but SO was not a fan. Nice, simple aesthetic. Small and not ideal for studying. Parking lot is small - I would imagine it would be difficult to find parking at peak hours. I would come back to try their boba and other drinks.

I've really been into tea jellies recently and when I popped into this spot, they had a sample of mango green tea with osmanthus oolong tea jelly and I was sold! The tea had good flavor, was super refreshing, and the jelly was so good. Loved that it had fresh mango pieces in it too. My friends got a pistachio mist and brown sugar mist - tried them both and those were good too! The interior space is simple and clean, has a cute seating area to enjoy your drink. Service was also super quick.

TGY milk tea and brown sugar milk tea
Alyssa N.

Mosa tea is a good boba shop with pretty exceptional toppings and flavorful tea. I will have to say that sometimes the tea is a bit watery but there are times where it's strong (good). A pretty consistent 7-8 on my rating list for the TGY Milk Tea. Service is fast and efficient, place is nice and clean. The only thing that gets me nearly every time is the parking situation. Sharing a lot with The Godfather Restaurant (TGR) and other shops usually means there's little to no parking (especially since Godfather cones up some of the spots in the afternoon for their Valet parking). There's additional parking in the back area but those are usually occupied by TGR guests or employees so, pretty tough battle. I will say that there are a handful of times where no parking resulted in me going to other shops instead, but when there is parking, this shop is a good tea option in the area. Overall rating: Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Menu: 10/10 Shop Vibe: 7/10 (Accessibility) Price to Overall Dining (POD): 8/10

Jia H.

Tried Mosa Tea recently and overall thought it was a pretty decent spot. The drinks are Taiwanese style, with a strong tea base. I ordered the Tieguanyin milk tea and the osmanthus Tieguanyin milk tea. Both had a rich tea flavor, which I appreciated. The osmanthus one tasted more like osmanthus syrup and it added sweetness Overall, solid drinks, but nothing particularly standout. It actually reminded me a bit of Wushiland in LA. The main downside for me is the parking situation. It's pretty limited, and nearby parking isn't the most convenient. Especially during dinner hours, about 2/3 of the spaces are valet for the restaurant next door, which makes it even harder to find a spot. Overall, a decent experience, but probably not somewhere I'd go out of my way to return to.

Ginger P.

4.5/5 Another great tea place in San Diego, yay! I would definitely go back. The pistachio mist was amazing. I've never had a pistachio foam before, so it's cool that this tea spot has some unique offerings. I thought the prices were a tad high though. I gotta go back someday and try more! Service was nice too, they were helpful in answering some questions I had.

The interior feels like a wild little wonderland--funny photos in cutesy frames, oversized chairs and couches, curtains on the windows, flowers draping the walls. Super cute, genuinely charming. Then the TV ruined it. The soccer game was blasting at full volume and the staff behind the counter were completely checked out, locked into the match like the rest of the room didn't exist. It felt like they were on a different planet. Mouth-breather energy, zero awareness of customers. Hard to enjoy the space when the sound is that aggressive. The Thai tea itself was excellent. You can actually taste the layers--the highs, the lows, the richness and texture. Real craftsmanship. Problem is, they don't do blended versions (only iced), and after driving all the way out here I was craving that thicker, blended texture. Still, the quality was clear. My buddy's iced latte was next-level though--insanely strong and delicious. Could wake the dead. Worth popping in if you're already in the neighborhood and want solid, authentic drinks. Just be prepared for a possible TV takeover and the trek. Cute space, great drinks, but the vibe gets tanked by the noise and the staff's total disconnect.

I'm surprised some people could sit down and work/study successfully. Note: I had a positive experience last time getting a blended drink, but today I felt like trying their Thai Tea (not blended) and two Korean Corn Dogs. I ordered the hot Cheeto one with cheese and sausage. Did not wind up receiving the hot Cheeto one. Got a regular one with all cheese, no sausage. Partner got a potato one with cheese and sausage, but only 25% of the filling was sausage. We ate them anyways and wanted to leave it at that since the parking was so difficult. Then my stomach started gurgling in a very wrong way. I don't know if something went wrong with the Thai tea (was the milk they used expired?), or with my Korean corn dog possibly being prepared wrong with a new hire, but my body rejected it violently once I got home. I'd be very cautious about coming back here. Most likely won't. Couldn't finish my Thai Tea. Had to throw it out. I'm hoping this was just an unfortunate one time thing, because it seems like people for the most part have a good experience from their food and drinks. This is my third ever time visiting Urban Bubble. The past two visits were for blended drinks and they were great! The girl working the cash register on the evening of 4/24 around 8:00PM was really helpful with suggesting recommendations and did great. I don't know who prepared my food and drink but maybe they need extra training, heads up. If you order food, I suggest that you check the food before leaving the building instead of trusting that it was correct and finding out once you've already left.

The only difference I noticed is that the tea at the Kearny Mesa location isn't brewed as strong as it is at the other locations.

Every 3 Cat location has a simple, clean, and minimalist atmosphere. They also make drinks very quickly, so the wait is usually short.

The shop is also pretty small, and sometimes the AC doesn't seem to be working, which makes it uncomfortably warm inside. Shoutout to the staff because they're always working hard--they seriously deserve a raise. Overall, I'd recommend ordering your drinks to go. Despite the crowds and higher prices, the quality keeps me coming back.

It feels like a good spot to hang out, get some work done, or catch up with a friend over a drink. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other teas. Parking in this plaza is always a bit of a challenge because it's so busy, but the drink was worth it. I ordered ahead on the Toast app and ran inside to pick it up while my husband waited in the car.
