    Large green tea quarter sugar
    Will M.

    El Monte doesn't have too many good boba spots, but Ono Tea House is a decent option. Prices here are a little lower than most places, which is nice. The tea itself is just okay -- not super strong -- and the drinks can lean on the sweeter side. I usually order mine with 1/4 sugar since I don't like them too sweet. Overall, it's not a spot I'd go out of my way for, but if you're in El Monte and really craving boba, it does the job.

    Their Brown Sugar Boba Milk tea was delicious it had great brown sugar flavor and the boba and pudding was chewy and tasty.

    Randomly stumbled upon this tea house since I ate at a restaurant nearby. Really enjoyed the drinks here and the flavors were pretty good. They had a BOGO deal for pumpkin pie ice tea and I ended up getting that as well as another drink. the BOGO deal was like $4.50 for two which is really good especially since the drink was great. The chocolate swirl milk tea was pretty refreshing as well. We had all the drinks at 50% sugar and it was just right.

    Such a lovely establishment with nice plants that gave me good energy coming in. They have dairy free options! Even with that I still opted for an oolong tea, no sweetener or milks. The tea was really strong and had good flavor. I will come back to try some of the other drinks. A regular size looks like a gallon it's huge! The boys got milk tea with boba they seemed to like it just fine. Come get your milk tea with strawberry popping boba or a durian shake they both looked great!

    Service was awesome! Drinks are reasonably priced and great portions. Def need to come back. Also try the ROSE GREEN TEA WITH LYCHEE JELLY Drinks were so good I gave my last crazy puff to a man in need. Aura: 10/10 Cleanliness: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Drinks: 10/10

    This place is super nice, with a wide variety of options for drinks and they even have a caffeine-free option, which I tried (called Sugar Stripes Milk). It tasted almost like milk boba, minus the caffeine spike afterwards. They also have fruit smoothies and all sorts of seasonal drinks. Great place. Highly recommended.

    I love the smell of boba being made whenever I enter the shop. It's a small comfy shop with cute plants around. Huge cups. Very friendly. Their boba tastes great. They actually have flavor and taste like they've been cooked with brown sugar, not bland at all. Ono Tea House is my favorite!! :^D I've been getting boba here about once a month for about a year now. I've had their thai milk tea, house milk tea, honeydew green milk tea, guava yogurt, lychee yogurt, strawberry yogurt, and peach yogurt. All yummy! I have ordered in-store and over the phone for pickup. Never had a bad experience so far. :^D (update with pictures and more info)

    Lately I been wanting to try new tea places and came across this place since I was passing by on Garvey. Employees wore masks and there were plastic clear shields at the counters for cashier and pickup which was good to protect customers and employees especially during pandemic. Not a lot of tea places nowadays serve almond milk tea but I'm surprised this place does and surprisingly it satisfied my almond milk tea craving! They have regular size and large size cups, and even a regular size is good enough for me. I got a regular size almond milk tea ($4.50) + added crystal boba topping ($0.75) = $5.25 total for the drink. I also got a brown sugar striped milk drink ($5.65) that came with 2 toppings. I chose pudding and grass jelly. Both drinks were good but it was kind of powdery which irritated the throat so I wish it was dissolved more. Other than that, I would come back again if I'm in the area.

    We love this place! Staff are friendly and knowledgable about the drinks. Prices are reasonable for the size. A lot of options to choose from! And the place is very clean and i love that they have a lot plants! It makes it very welcoming.

    I got the passion fruit green tea and it was so good ! Their boba is so nice and fresh! I'm glad I came to try it out

There are cushioned bench seating areas and while overall it's a small shop, it's a decent place to study. I don't see outlets though. A favorite of mine is their bloom teas with a nice coconut milk, sago, and real fresh fruit. Definitely a refreshing drink that is worth the price.

    Very normal tea place. And by 'normal,' I mean aggressively average…read more The drinks exist. They are wet. They have sugar. Nothing made me gasp, nothing made me weep, and definitely nothing made me want to come back for round two. The popping boba? Oh, it popped alright -- right into my teeth with the enthusiasm of a tiny rubber ball that's been left in the sun too long. Hard. Not crispy, not chewy -- just... defiant. Now let's talk about the adventure of getting inside. This place on Valley Blvd has more iron barricades than a medieval fortress. The door facing Valley? Locked. Barred. Rejected. You've got two options: walk all the way around through the parking lot like some kind of peasant making a pilgrimage, or -- and I quote -- simply climb over the fence. Because yes, apparently that's a viable alternative they've just accepted as normal. Service is fine. Not warm, not cold. Just... fine. The kind of fine where they hand you your drink, you say thanks, they nod, and you both understand this is the last time you'll see each other. And outlets? None. Zero. Nada. If your phone's at 5%, may God have mercy on your soul because this tea shop certainly won't. Would I go back? Only if I'm already in the parking lot. And the fence is already open. And someone else is paying. And I've forgotten what popping boba is supposed to taste like. Otherwise? Hard pass. Hard boba. Hard entrance. Hardly worth it.

To order: Can order online, in store with the cashier or there are two kiosks available. Service has always been fine. Never an issue. SIGNATURE DRINKS: Original Thai Tea 4.5/5 70% sweet is sweet enough. 30% for less sweet. Thai Green Milk Tea 4.25/5 Not bad. Thai Red Plum 4.25/5 Kinda like it even though it's acquired taste. Definitely not the kind of drink I would have everyday, but good to have once in a long while. Thai Lemon Tea 2.5-3/5 Trying really hard to like it, but it's very so-so for me. Not my cup of tea. The Butterfly Collection: Honey Lemon Butterly Tea w/ Basil Seed 4.25/5 30% sugar. Like that it's slightly tart. Flavor/taste is good. Butterfly Pea Milk Tea w/ Basil Seed 4.25/5 30% sugar. Tastes sweeter than 30% sugar. Could taste the condensed milk. OTHER DRINKS: Yuzu Rose Tea 4.5/5 Bf likes this drink. I have couple sips and thought it was good (would order again). Thai Green Tea Latte 4.25/5 Their Thai Green Tea is pretty good. Probably won't be getting the latte version in the future cuz it comes with Pandan Boba and I'm kinda alright/so-so with it.

They have a good selection of drinks (hot/cold) and snacks such as popcorn chicken, salads, fries etc. I have known this tea shop for quite sometime but reluctant because of the mediocre reviews. I went for a late night drive-thru and had a hot green tea x boba and popcorn chicken x ranch sauce. Their breaded popcorn chicken is soft, tasty and by far the best I had ever tasted in the SGValley. Similarly, hot tea was okay. Drive-thru was convenient. Female staff was nice and affable. Prices seem fairly higher than most tea shops; they charge $1 for toppings and/or dipping sauces (ketchup, ranch and sweet sour chilli). Service was spot on.

I was looking forward to going back tonight, 3 days after my first visit, to use their WiFi and do some work because I really liked their matcha drink and the vibes. I decided to call and ask whether their WiFi was working, and the employee who picked up said their WiFi has been down for a few days. I'd expect an establishment with a large sit in space for people to study/do work to have fixed their WiFi within a day or two.

Not sure if the mochi really matched it, but liked the added cream to it. Parking was fine, and service wasn't too interactive since we just used the screen to order.
