Parking Parking was pretty convenient. There is street parking available, and there is also a small parking lot in the back for the building's tenants. Interior / Atmosphere The shop itself looks bright, clean, and inviting. It has big shop signs, sofas, and a few cute spots where you can take pictures. From what I heard, they also host K-pop gatherings from time to time, which gives the place a fun and unique vibe. Service The staff were friendly, interactive, and easy to talk to. They answered my questions with helpful information and made the experience feel welcoming. Drinks I ordered the Guanyin milk tea, which was recommended to me after I mentioned that I prefer a stronger tea flavor. It was a good recommendation, and I enjoyed that the tea taste came through well. Even though I ordered 100% sugar, the drink did not taste overly sweet, which I appreciated. Overall Overall, I had a good experience here. I would personally rate this place around a 4.3 to 4.7, but because the staff were so interactive and welcoming with customers, I would give them a 5. Keep it up!!

The cashier was friendly and answered my questions. She made some recommendations. Decent variety of drinks with unique names. I had the Jazzy Mango with Lychee Jelly. The blue color on top was interesting; no particular flavor to it, but it was pretty. However, I didnt have many mango pieces in my drink. The drink served its purpose and was refreshing. IMO, the price point is high. There is so much competition out there.

The staff were super friendly and welcoming even though it was busy. I tried Mint Tea Hot with a little sweetener and my wife got their signature Matcha milk tea with lychee jelly, and the flavor were perfect--rich, smooth, and not too sweet. They also have a lot of drink options, from teas, coffee to specialty drinks, and everything looked really good. For this shop, they're already running things very smoothly. Drinks came out fast and the quality was high. I'm definitely coming back to try more flavors. Highly recommended--great drinks, great service, and a great addition to the neighborhood, to the Plaza West Covina.

The taro milk tea was creamy, rich, and was SUPER SWEET like REALLY SWEET. Had good, strong, nutty, vanilla, sweet taro flaves tho. The cheese strawberry smoothie had tart strawberry flaves and tasted like drinking strawberry yogurt with a salty cheese foam. Not really for me. The honeydew milk tea was sweet and had good honeydew flaves. Lowkey was like drinking a melted melona bar. Since this strawberry matcha was a double strawberry one it had plenty of tart, not too sweet strawberry flaves with only a light matcha flave. All the drinks were super pretty but My fave was definitely the honeydew milk tea. Overall this place is lowkey pretty good. Honeydew milk tea $6.70 Taro milk tea $6.70 Cheese strawberry smoothie $7.30 Double strawberry matcha $8.20

You can pretty much order anything and it won't disappoint. My go-to is the Avocano -- SO good. Highly recommend. Their fried snacks are also surprisingly good.

The boba is always fresh and warm, and the quality and flavor have stayed consistent over the years, which I really appreciate. I also love that you can customize the sweetness level to your preference, and they offer blended options too, which I personally prefer--it makes such a difference. It's been nice to see them grow without compromising what makes them good. The service is solid, though there can be a bit of a wait during busy times. Seating is limited since the space is on the smaller side, so I'd recommend grabbing your drink to-go.

I've been to this location many times and always place my order by phone ahead of time. This time,…read moreI had to call three separate times because the line kept disconnecting. Each time, the employee would only get part of the order before the call dropped. On the second call, we were in the middle of confirming the order when it hung up again. On the third call, she apologized and said the line was cutting out. When I tried to confirm my order one last time, she seemed rushed but said everything was correct before we hung up. My order was shrimp tempura, mozzarella sticks with no seasoning, two large mango teas, and one large black tea. When we got home, I noticed the shrimp tempura had no dipping sauce, and instead of mozzarella sticks, we were given potstickers. I called the store immediately and was told I needed to return the potstickers to receive the mozzarella sticks. I explained that I was no longer in the area and asked what could be done. I was then told to save the potstickers and bring them back the next time I came in so they could give me the mozzarella sticks. Since I don't like potstickers, I ended up throwing them away. I feel the situation could have been handled much better by management. Should have learned my lesson 10yrs ago when the same thing happened here.

I had a great experience at Junbi Matcha! If you love matcha and fun, unique flavors, this location…read moreis definitely worth stopping by. I ordered the corn matcha latte and the caramel corn matcha latte. The corn matcha latte was smooth and creamy with a clean matcha flavor. It wasn't overly sweet, and the corn element added a subtle sweetness and richness without tasting roasted or overpowering -- just a nice, mellow balance. The caramel corn matcha latte was my favorite. The caramel gave it that buttery sweetness that blended really well with the matcha, making it feel a little more indulgent while still letting the matcha shine through. It was sweet but not overwhelming. The shop itself is bright, modern, and clean -- a cute spot to hang out or grab a drink to go. Service was friendly and quick as well. I'll definitely be back to try more drinks!

It wasn't that busy. There's a total of 6 tables if you wanted to enjoy your drink inside. I ordered the rock oolong lemon tea. It tasted like a fresh lemonade with some tea flavor - tart and sweet. It was refreshing but nothing too out of the ordinary. I wish that you can add toppings to it. Staff was super friendly as they always welcome and give thanks when someone leaves. No long wait times either, everything was super efficient and quick.

They do not put accurate estimates online and you will be waiting for double your estimated wait time during peak hours. Worker handing out the drinks was also rude. After the 3rd time pushing back my pickup time, I went to ask how many more orders were in front of me, and he yelled at me telling me he doesn't know but then proceeded to tell me 10 orders were in front of me.... I leave to drop my mom off at home, left my sister there, and suddenly my order was ready and there was not 10 orders in front.... Online ordering, super inaccurate, super unpredictable. Don't do it. If you do, make sure you checkup on it or they'll disregard it. Drinks are good tho, I enjoy them. But that worker was booty and made my time at ChaHalo ass, will probably not come back as much as I use to.

Absolutely disgusting experience at Auntie Tea…read more We ordered 2 Mango Pomelo drinks and 1 Strawberry Daifuku. The drinks were already overpriced at over $8 each, and because tipping is OPTIONAL, we chose not to tip. The employee at the front with arm tattoos already had a bad attitude and the whole interaction felt uncomfortable from the start. The next day, I went to finish one of the drinks and while drinking the toppings, something thick blocked the straw. I thought maybe it was fruit or pudding, so I opened the sealed lid, only to find a rolled up strip of RECEIPT PAPER stuffed inside the drink. There is absolutely no reasonable explanation for how a rolled receipt ends up INSIDE a sealed drink. This did not accidentally "fall in." It looked intentionally rolled and shoved in there. What makes it even worse is this location mainly uses text/SMS receipts, so there is no way this came from me. Receipt paper contains toxic chemicals like BPA and hormone disrupters and should NEVER be anywhere near food or drinks. I'm honestly disgusted and shocked that this even happened. I already reported this location to the health department and contacted corporate because this is beyond unacceptable. If employees are going to retaliate over not receiving a tip by tampering with customers' drinks, people seriously need to avoid this place.

Honestly some of the worst boba I've had. The drinks we ordered (cloud 9 and gyokuro green milk tea…read morewith boba) just tasted like milk and sugar. I can't taste the gyokuro tea in my drink, only hints of green tea and milk. The cloud 9 tasted really bitter with cheese foam. Lollicup or Seven leaves tastes better than this. Only thing decent about the drinks were the boba balls. It had the right texture and chewiness. The only plus side was the service and the ambiance of the shop. Service was excellent. The shop had claw machines and ample seating to hang out with friends. Wouldn't recommend for drinks.

We especially want to highlight one of the baristas (I believe he may be Filipino, young, tall, wears a hat). He was incredibly kind and welcoming, took the time to recommend drinks, and made ours exactly to our liking after we needed adjustments. You can tell he really cares about the customer experience, and he went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We actually liked him so much that we walked back to our car to try to find cash to tip him,but sadly couldn't find any. We told ourselves we're definitely coming back just to tip him next time! Parking is in a shared plaza. We walked over from LXF Malatang (our favorite spot nearby). Overall, such a great experience. SHOUT OUT TO THE KINDEST GENTLEMAN!!! The tea, the atmosphere, and especially the service made it totally worth it. We'll definitely be back!
