    Small but mighty little take out spot. Mostly Filipino foods and the longonesa looks amazing. The store doesn't have a Vietnamese offering when I walked in. Casual. Small parking lot. Friendly staff. Please come and create your own experience.

    The Best Matcha Einspanner in Long Beach!!!…read more I'm obsessed with the Matcha Einspanner, and it's usually the only drink I get here. The regular Matcha Latte is so good, but I love getting the Matcha Einspanner because it makes the drink more creamier. I always get the Matcha Einspanner with Oat Milk because whole milk is typically overpowering and reduces the matcha flavor. The cream in the Matcha Einspanner is not salty or bitter, and it has a subtle sweetness, but it's not too much. The drink itself is a perfect balance of bitter and sweet, and it has this beautiful green color. The employees are also super kind and helpful! They sometimes give you an estimate on how long your drinks will take which is so nice! They're also very knowledgeable about the menu which is great if you're ever curious about something on the menu. The cafe is in a busy plaza with two cafes, a vet hospital, a liquor store, a dive bar, a hair salon, and a nail salon. Parking is my biggest issue when coming here. I usually just deal with it because I love the Matcha Einspanner, but sometimes it's just annoying. There's a parking space reserved for "Ding Tea Customers for Pick-Up", Ding Tea is the business that used to be the where Teatopia is now, but you would think by now they'd change the sign or stick a piece of paper on it saying "Teatopia". The cafe has about four table with seating, outdoor seating, a restroom for customers, and a station where you can make ramen. It's always clean in the cafe. I'm almost a regular here so I'm going to continue to come here and just deal with the parking!

    The matcha here is wonderful! I always go with the free extra gram, personally I love how it…read moreelevates the drink. The milk teas are just hit or miss some days... but I'm biased, 8/10 I'm here for matcha & don't usually branch out. The regular matcha latte is perfect- not too much, not too little. I find that with the speciality matchas, the add-ins can kind of overpower the drink. If you like it extra sweet, though, they would be right up your alley! The employees are always so nice & helpful as well! I can always ask them their opinion on a drink & receive honest feedback & unique recommendations. I truly appreciate their help, they make the experience all the better.

    Sadly the hype of this place was hugeeeee that I think that takes my expectations to another level…read more Unfortunately it did not live up to the hype. This place sits right next to the bowling alley and there is actually No big sign for it. Thankfully when we went there was no line either which was great since everyone talks about how busy it gets in there. There was a kiosk or you can order with the employee. She told us they were known for their jelly's so I made sure I tried it. I ordered a black milk tea with matcha jelly And hubs ordered his with almond pudding. Thankfully I could adjust sweetness and milk. I thought mine was good. It's not bad but I knew it wasn't something I would crave. Hubs did not like his as much as I did. Our kids loveee Their matcha but I was not able to try it. If I'm in the area again maybe illl have some but it's definitely not something I'll drive out of the way for.

    This place was so difficult to find if you're not familiar with the location. I was driving around…read morein circles. When I went to the Yelp page and looked for how the outside looks I figured out I was in the right spot. First of all, it was night time, dark. And I was looking for the sign. I passed by the place like 4x. My boyfriend said to just park and we'll look for the place. Luckily we found it. I double checked the picture and it shows there was a sign, however no sign was seen. Easy to order. There is a self kiosk. Drinks were good. Boba texture wasn't that great. It was very chewy.

    This place is super cute and has a lot of good drink options. I came here late on a Sunday night…read morearound new years and this place has recently been renovated so there wasn't anyone here, but the vibe is so cute and I could definitely see it being a great study spot. There's seating for probably ~20 people inside plus they have a vending machine for ramen you can make. The server was nice and we got an ube shake, half sweet and a passion mango tea with mango star jelly, 70 sweet. Overall my ube shake was really good, real Ube flavor and not too sweet as I asked for. The passion mango tea was also very refreshing. I will be coming back to try more of their items!

    Super important to note the PCH location is drink-ONLY. There is a Ramen/Rameyon vending machine…read more(so cute) but this location focuses exclusively on beverages. The atmosphere here is everything, super cute, mixed styles of seating, adorable décor. A lot of effort went into making this place look cute and it really, really pays off. The music played is not overwhelming and the pricing seems really reasonable to me, with a variety large enough to feel satisfying when you don't know what you're craving and want to browse a menu. Staff is super friendly and like most modern tea shops, they do have the ordering screen to expedite things along. The seating situation does leave a little something to be desired at the moment, as one of the tables is a little tough to access on a full day, but barring going during busy hours, it is a decent amount of spots to sit for a tea shop and I don't personally think I would want to give up that nice open floorspace in the middle. One downside being that at the time of writing their restroom was "down", but I wont hold it against them because being a local means knowing exactly what they're dealing with in that area. It's detrimental for customers, but honestly, I get it.
