    Very fast and pleasant service, some seating inside and a few more outside, place is very clean. That banana matcha was fantastic, will go back again soon!

    Bootea Shaker with Boba
    Lana P.

    I got a boo-tea shaker sub jelly for boba and it was a little lacking tea flavor. However the boba was fresh and chewy, which I did not anticipate because I came in around 8:00. The worker who checked me out was named Duy I believe, and he was extremely kind and patient as I was ordering. The store is located in Vietnam Town and has a couple tables to sit.

    Overcharged for popcorn chicken, lousy cheap  portion distribution.
    Elena K.

    Dear John, you clearly didn't review the portion size for your popcorn chicken order since it was brought up by a previous Yelper. Because what is this? How is this acceptable? You guys over charge for this item and this is how you're sending the orders out to customers? I had maybe 7-8 decent pieces while everything else was just crumbs. This is false pricing. It's happen twice before and this is the last time I'll let it happen because it'll never change. Either lower your prices to match the cheapskate portion or just remove all your snacks. And stop over frying your food to the point where they're so dried and crunchy for future consumers.

    Flavor was good. A little busy during the weekend. But didn't have to wait too long for the drink.

    Pandan Oreo Smoothie
    Raymond N.

    I've been going to Tastea periodically over the years whenever I'm craving a fruit flavored drink and I'm in Vietnam Town. Their drinks are ridiculously sweet but I do like their flavor combinations and topping choices, including their boba which is green for whatever reason. I received a notification on their app regarding their current Pandan Series and was intrigued by their Pandan Oreo Smoothie since I like pandan and Oreo and was curious to taste how they are together. I was about to place my order on the app but it said they were out of boba so I ended up ordering in person in case it was actually available. I arrived at the store on a weekend around lunchtime and the parking situation was bad as expected, though there wasn't a line at Tastea. I ordered the Pandan Oreo Smoothie with zero sugar since I anticipated the drink already being sweet (the barista confirmed the sweetness just adds sugar and not flavoring to the drink), but also noticed a small sign saying they didn't have boba because their "machine was broken" and I wasn't too bummed about this. The drink was ready in about five minutes and I was able to enjoy it at one of the tables in the shop; this location is not too big but there are a few tables available for use inside and outside. The drink had a nice pandan flavor with the crunchiness and flavor of the Oreo which I felt worked really well together. However, as I continued consuming my drink I noticed the pandan flavor become less and less and I was pretty much left with blended ice and what seemed to be non-dairy creamer. Unfortunately, I probably would not get this drink again and I'd stick with one of their drinks with more fruit. I also think Tastea should reevaluate its sweetness percentage customizations to realistically match the overall sweetness of its drinks.

    Came here specifically for this!

    This isn't my go-to Tastea location to visit but since I was in the area and my fave seasonal drink was in season... WHY NOT?? My daughter is absolutely obsessed with watermelon and tbh, Tastea's Watermelon Heaven is bomb af, so this is 100% a double win in my book. We arrived with a young gentleman running the establishment. Placing the order and the wait time for our drink was easy and so very quick. I made the request for light sweetness level and the drink was still very sweet- in a great way!!! This just proves how naturally sweet & ripe the watermelon was. 5/5 stars.

    Drink was good, Service was ok, but the shop is set up as a grab & go. No wifi, i ordered a drink so I can work and sit but I couldn't do that here.

    We were at this shopping area next to tastea and saw the crowd. Whe we look closely, it is their 2nd anniversary and has BOGO for specialteas drink and if you spend certain amount you will get free gift. We were targeting to spend 15 dollars to get the shopping bag. Line was long and slow. When it was our turn, as we didn't pay attention on which drink qualify for BOGO, we hsve to redo the order. After we ordered our drinks were ready pretty quickly. Happy to get nice back and the drinks were good the vietnamese coffee is on the light side.

    Vietnamese Coffee & Sunset Peach
    Kristine N.

    Lots of parking available and located in VietnamTown -- perfect to grab and walk around. First time here!! There was no line when I went and the place is super clean. I ordered the Sunset Peach and Vietnamese coffee. The drinks were so refreshing and tasty. The sunset peach comes with green mango bits that I probably could do without, but other than that, it is one of my new favorite boba drinks! The Vietnamese coffee was delicious as well. They also offer food that looks pretty good such as french fries and popcorn chicken. I will have to give them a try the next time I come!

    On January 9th, around 4-5 PM, I came in to purchase a drink and had one of the worst customer service experiences I've had here. The female employee working at that time did not acknowledge me at all--no greeting, no basic courtesy--and her attitude was very rude and unprofessional. On top of that, the drink was made extremely poorly. It tasted completely different and much worse compared to the drinks I usually get from other staff members on previous visits. This experience was very disappointing and unacceptable. Due to the rude service and lack of quality, I will not be returning. Management seriously needs to address staff behavior and service standards.

    One of my favorite Tastea locations. Service is extremely friendly and it's a great location where if you grab a drink, you can definitely walk around Vietnam Town easily checking out the shops and restaurants as well. One of my favorite drinks to get is the, watermelon heaven and let me tell you, it is a watermelon lover's dream. It's perfectly sweet and icy for those hot summer days. It feels like you're eating the perfect ripe watermelon in a drinkable form. I hope one day they can expand to a bigger location within Vietnam town and offer more seating. There are other drink shops in Vietnam town that upped their game with plenty of seating and ambiance. Nevertheless, I still love getting the drinks here and especially their chicken. It goes perfectly well with any of the drinks. But yes, if you're craving something I see and sweet, run to Tastea and get the Watermelon Heaven because it's only available during summer time.

    Matcha Thai Milk Tea
    Larixsa H.

    It was my first time here, and I absolutely loved it! I ordered a Matcha Thai tea, and it was delicious. The sweetness was just right, allowing both the matcha and Thai flavors to complement each other perfectly. I would definitely order it again! highly recommend! 10/10!

    32 oz Tiger Milk Tea
    Dana C.

    The service was really fast and the staff were really friendly, asking if I needed anything else. The drinks were good as usual but my honey boba was a bit hard which was disappointing since it's usually warm and fresh whenever I get it. I'd honestly skip out on the food, like what another reviewer said, it was mid. The fries and popcorn chicken were really fresh and gave a hefty amount but the popcorn chicken is definitely not worth the price. As for the fries, they were good, but they should use a stronger bbq seasoning or add a bit more bbq seasoning to enhance the flavor since it does lack in bbq flavor.

It was a Wednesday and Devin and I were looking to make it a productive work day. We stopped by later in the afternoon. There is ample seating but most of the booths were occupied when we arrived so we sat at a table. Club music was being played loudly so working here would not be ideal if you have to present in meetings. The tropical paradise fruit tea would've been better with a topping or two, but in an attempt to cut down on calories consumed I've began getting drinks without toppings. Unfortunately fruit tea without toppings is just not the same, but this was totally my choice and on me. The WiFi worked well. There are some outlets under the booths but none at the tables. I've been to other Rose Tea Lounge locations and I'd say that this one is definitely more club-like than others. Not the ideal place to work remotely by any means, but that's not to say that the drinks are bad or ambiance is poor. If you're looking to chat and catch up with friends, this spot would be a good choice.

It's relatively easy to find parking, even though the lot is somewhat busy, especially right after work.

The honey boba adds just the right amount of sweetness and texture, making it my favorite combination. One of the best things about this shop is how fast the service is. Even when ordering in person, I'm usually able to get my drink and be on my way within minutes. The efficiency makes it an easy stop when I'm craving a quick drink. The interior is also a highlight. There's plenty of seating available for anyone looking to study, work, or simply catch up with friends. The space feels welcoming and cozy, with a cute aesthetic that makes it enjoyable to spend time in. Overall, this is a great boba shop with quality drinks, fast service, and a comfortable atmosphere. If you're a matcha lover, I would definitely recommend trying the Strawberry Matcha.

The guava matcha is my go to, but you really can't go wrong with their matcha strawberry either. Both are not super sweet at 50% and the guava with the guava or strawberry are composed well. Drinks are both not overly powerful in the flavor you choose, while the matcha is not overly bitter as well. Updating my review to a 5 :-D ---How I Rate on Yelp:--- (5 stars): Exceptional!! -- food, service, and atmosphere all outstanding. Worth going out of your way. (4 stars): Great! -- very good experience overall, minor flaws but nothing major. (3 stars): Good -- decent, acceptable, but there's room for clear improvement. (2 stars): Poor -- disappointing experience, multiple issues (food, service, or setting). (1 star): Terrible -- very bad experience, would not return or recommend.
