Still my favorite place! Got the strawberry banana and it was delish. Just a small drive thru place with a dine in area and patio. And the popcorn chicken is always flavorful read more

This place is so conveniently located to me. I remember trying a thai tea from here many moons ago. I remember nothing about it. This time around I ended up ordering their house coffee with less sweetness. I'm unsure if it was a percentage or not. I really enjoyed the coffee. It had a robust, flavorful coffee flavor to it. It was not too sweet. I really enjoyed and loved the flavor of the coffee. I think it had the right amount of flavor and kick of sweetness to it. I was wired for the next like 6 hours i believe. and of course i decided to drink it around 10pm.... but its a great choice to have earlier in the day. The place is relatively small, and their drive-thru is actually horrendous. The number of times cars have half their car in the middle of the lane right there is insane. I think they should have designed it better so that the building would not block so much of the view of oncoming traffic. Otherwise, there is also a small parking lot. Service was fast and standard. They have other options, including hot food, which they will ask you ast the first question at the drive-through. read more

Just a PSA for those of you who enjoy your drinks without ice. If you don't pay extra for the top off, you will only get half of your drink. It's an interesting scam that they're running, but who knows, maybe drink margins are tight read more

Thank you for the cup of ice. I do love the flavor of the tea, but I don't think I'll be returning to pay $5.80 for 3/4 cup ice. read more

I'm surprised with the drink..why do you need to purchase the "top off" to have it filled all the way?? Shouldn't it be filled all the way if you got that size? Popcorn chicken was pricey. I got a large ($13ish) with much more tiny batter pieces than actual chicken. Looks like they just filled the bottom with the tiny batter pieces and then placed some bigger actual popcorn chicken on top. You can tell in the pic there's a lot of those crunchy batter bits. And the basil was just thrown on top (typically it's fried). Both drink and food tasted alright though. It's not terrible, but they can improve on some things. read more

Tastea has never been my go-to for boba because just by looking at the drinks and the menu, I can tell it's nothing special. But yesterday I was craving boba and karaage chicken, and Tastea was the only option still open and close to my house, so I desperately ordered from them for the first time and it will definitely be my last. The chicken was extremely salty and full of crumbs, as you can see in the photo, literally tiny pieces of batter that were overly salty. Of course, they also ran out of basil. I ordered a lychee freeze with 50% sugar, but they gave me 100% sugar instead. It was ridiculously sweet. Who even drinks super-sugary drinks these days? I honestly feel like I spent my money on salty batter and sugar water. Oh well, exactly what I expected from Tastea. read more

Staff is rude, made you wait 30 minutes at the drive thru when I was the only car there. Slams the drive thru window. This is the 4th time she'd been rude. Girl with the red hair, just sayin read more

I love their popcorn chicken but maaan their staff sometimes seem like they don't want to talk to you. Some of them are nice though. Lol also everything taste so good but the chicken sometimes can be so tiny. They also run out of basil sometimes. Their Thai tea is yummy and boba texture is really good read more

I love the food here, especially the karate chicken! I usually get medium for spice level if you like it a little spicy, if not mild would be a good option for you! I also love their fries, you can pick what seasoning you want on them! The bbq flavor is really good! The boba and drinks here are always amazing! I usually get their jasmine milk tea or the tea to mango for a refreshing option! I love the little mango fruit bits inside the drink! The boba is really good and soft. Since it's December, they have special red and green colored boba for the holidays! It's such a fun surprise! I also like how fast the food and drinks come out! read more

First of all, the parking lot is small, so be on the lookout, or you might miss it. Choices? Too many to speak of!! Took several minutes to get the lay of the land!! We went 2 days in a row. The first day's drinks were too sweet, even though we asked for light sweetness and Stevie. The next day I ordered light sweetness for a milk tea, and it was perfect!! Will have to try a few more to establish favorites. read more

I have tried pretty much all the boba places in Torrance and Tastea is now my go to. The boba is always the right chewiness and the drinks always taste as I expect. I love the drive through, they are actually pretty fast. The missing star is mainly for the crew. I think they are okay, I mean they are probably mostly part time employees, making minimum wage. When compared to other establishments they seem a little less friendly and don't really seem like they want to be there. For me going to get a boba is a treat and it can be a downer when the vibe is a little low. Not expecting high-fives or anything, but just seems different vs other places. Quality and reliability is still important to me so the vibe is not going to stop me from still going there! Another plus is the food, it's nice they have some go to snacks to go. I would check it out! They have minimal seating inside and out. I saw someone who was not so happy with sweetness levels not 0 sweetness when ordering 0. Please note at pretty much all boba places when adding toppings it most likely has a syrup that they can't separate, so your drink will have some sweetness. I don't like it too sweet so I always get 0, but expect my drink to have some sweetness. read more

Just had a horrible experience here. I ordered food at the drive thru and sat there for 30 minutes waiting for it. Only to find out, it had been sitting by the window and the person working the window never gave it to me. I was trying to flag the workers down to get their attention because I was still waiting for my food and they kept ignoring me. There was a worker who looked straight at me and didn't do a thing. The person working the window kept putting her back to me too. The people in the car behind me kept flashing their lights at me and honking their horn, rightfully so but it still bothered me, because I still hadn't received my food so I couldn't leave. I drove off after she finally gave my order, but went back because the food was cold and soggy from sitting there forever. I never go back, but this experience really upset me, and I asked for a refund. The person said they cancelled my order but couldn't give me a receipt for proof of the refund when I asked for it. He said I should see the refund in about a week, but we'll see. This experience really put a bad taste in my mouth. I wasted so much time sitting there and being ignored by the workers. The drive thru line had piled up by the time I finally left. I used to like this place because of the convenience of the drive thru for a boba place, and yes, they some times take a longer time if you order food, but this was absolutely ridiculous. It'll be a long time before I come back to this place again... If I ever decide to come back. read more

I usually love Tastea because the drinks are always good, but today's experience at the drive-thru was really disappointing. The cashier was extremely rude when we asked a few simple questions. He seemed annoyed, gave short responses with a rude tone, and when we apologized for asking and thanked him, he completely ignored us to chat with his coworkers instead. It's sad because we really do enjoy Tastea, but customer service matters just as much as the drinks. If the place was super busy, I could understand, but there was no line and no reason to treat customers that way. Hopefully management can address this, because the drinks deserve better service. 3 stars are all for drinks (: read more

Tastea - Milk tea no sugar added - Bubble Tea Near Me - Torrance, California

Came here at 10pm, says they're open until 11pm, but they already closed the drive thru and disabled ordering online

My daughter and I went to get tea. We were excited to get the Blueberry Blush tea. We arrived at 5:00 today to get our order my daughter went to the window to pick it up. There were two people inside working ; they looked at her and did not acknowledge her. Another young man came from the parking lot asked her had she been helped and she said no. He asked her did she ring the bell she said no because they looked at her and turned away. He said well you should have rang the bell; she asked why should she if they looked at her. He said when they are busy they don't look at the window. She told him they looked directly at me. We normally have a good experience at Tastea. It is very concerning when there are very few customers and the workers look directly at you and don't acknowledge a customer. He should have not made excuses for them read more

I like this location because it's convenient and easy to order. They also let people do orders on kiosk . Staff is nice and there's not much wait time. Parking is ok but can be tough at busy times. Park in plaza next door and walk over. read more

A solid experience at Tastea in Torrance! I ordered my go-to Peach Me Sweet Tea, which was perfectly sweet (although not overly so), with a good balance of flavors from the natural fruit tea and fruity chunks. I also enjoyed the quick service and cozy ambiance. Very convenient to have such a solid drink choice in the South Bay! read more

This place surprised me. My foodie friend treated me to the seasonally available Heavenly Watermelon slushy drink via the drive-thru. She went big and ordered the large for both of us. So refreshing and they didn't skimp on the watermelon. I'm now a fan of Tastea! read more

Tastea is ok if you get 0% sugar. I got lite sweet for their mango milk tea and it was really sweet. Lesson learned. Bootea is good with 0% sugar. I would get it again. Wintermelon milk tea drinks you can't get 0% sugar so the lowest one is acceptable. read more

I love the strawberry milk tea with boba!!! I love how this location has a drive thru, for all the lazy people like me! Lol Every drink I've tried here has been great! The karate chicken is cooked to perfection and the fries are always seasoned well. When I do go down, I love how you can order on a tablet & adjust the order to your liking! The inside is always very clean. Love it here! read more

I've been a fan of Tastea for their fruity drinks but this was my first time at this location and something was off. We ordered their seasonal Watermelon Heaven which I've tried many times at different locations but my first time trying it here, and it tasted artificial and too syrup-y. There were some watermelon bits which I appreciated, but I don't know if it was a bad watermelon or they added too much artificial flavoring. Otherwise, the service was quick and there are two kiosks inside to order. The downside is that there was no one manning the inside so if you had questions, you'd have to waive someone down. There's a drive thru which looked like it was moving pretty fast. The inside is pretty dim and there's a few small tables and seats. I'll continue being a supporter of Tastea, so I'll give this location another try! read more

If You Don't Love Your Health, Visit Here and Get Yourself Diabetic. I recently visited this boba shop and had a highly disappointing experience. Not only did they forget to add boba to my slushy, but when I pointed out the mistake and mentioned that I wanted less sugar, they simply added boba without adjusting the sweetness. This pattern of neglect has occurred every time I've visited, leaving me feeling unfairly treated and quite frustrated. I truly hope they improve their service for future customers. it's honestly disappointing. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone who values good taste and respectful service. read more

Very interesting flavor !! WINTER MELON! Delicious. I ordered light sweetener and it was perfect !! I highly recommend this drink . It was very refreshing for this hot summer night. The large wasn't enough ‍. Thank you again. ! See you soon ! read more

This review is way overdue. I have been coming to Tastea since they first opened a year or so ago. I have tried many of the drinks on their regular menu and a lot of their seasonal specials. Overall I love all their teas. I find them to be refreshing and not overwhelming. The store is located in this weird somewhat isolated area on a busy street. For some reason it just doesn't make sense to me. It can be tricky to turn into if you're heading eastbound on Sepulveda but at least there's a lane that gives you space to turn. The lot is small but I've always been able to find parking. I usually order online and drive over for pick up either at the window or the drive through, depending on if the drive through is busy or if for some random reason it's closed. I've only ordered at the kiosk inside twice and service is pretty quick The reason I deducted one star is the service. I have found that the girls who work there are all really nice and friendly while, unfortunately, the guys are grumpy and all act like they don't want to be there. Overall I have been returning to Tastea and will probably continue to return. read more

Love this place it's so good, unfortunately 4 stars as the horchata crunch was discontinued! :(

Used the drive through and I'm told Out of boba 3x on three separate occasions. Yall need to get it together.

The service was speedy but the drinks weren't my style- their drinks were all too sweet (even when they were "light")

Food: 3/5 The Yummy Gummy was a bit artificial tasting. The boba (while a unique green color!) was a bit too chewy and either stale or under cooked in a few places. Service: 5/5 Fast and no frills Ambiance: 4/5 Standard kiosk based ordering read more

I go to tastea pretty frequently (drive thru or delivery at least once a week). Love the Thai tea w/ boba, it's always on point (boba is chewy). The one qualm that I have is that they are kind of stingy with the boba lmao where I have to order double boba to get a single equal ratio to tea, similar to what you'd see at all other boba shops. If the amount of boba increased to a normal regular scoop, they'd be my top choice. (See pic for double boba) other than that, I would recommend. read more

Stopped by Tastea the other day, this particular one is in Torrance off of Sepulveda blvd. Nice, small restaurant inside. The service was quick and the lady who took our order was nice (she was funny too). Drinks! We got the tiger milk tea and Mango milk tea, both very good and recommended. Food! We tried their fries and their karate chicken. The fires were nice and crispy but the seasoning on them was a little much. The chicken didn't miss I'd love to go back to try more of their teas. read more

I've been going to Tastea for as long as I can remember and I'm so glad they opened up a location in Torrance WITH drive thru! Talk about a game changer. I like I alternate what I get but it's usually on a rotation between Bootea Shaker, Peach Me Sweetea and The Unknown. To be honest, you can't go wrong with any of their teas, it's literally in their name. The drinks are super refreshing and it's cool how they have green boba here as opposed to the traditional black. read more

Tastea - The Unknown - Bubble Tea Near Me - Torrance, California

I have been a huge fan of Tastea for years now. Before, my friends and I would drive to Cerritos for Tastea, so we were SO excited when the Torrance location opened. Plus a drive through?! Can't get any better than that. We frequently go to Tastea, and one of the thing I appreciate is that the drinks are always consistent. The sweetness levels are consistent and the drinks always taste the same every time. My new favorite has been the horchata milk tea, usually medium sweet. I don't add toppings since it already comes with the Cinnamon Toast Crunch and the sea salt foam on top. It is delicious. It tastes like a creamy milk tea with cinnamon. Highly recommend! Some other favorites are the strawberry milk tea, or the yummy gummy smoothie. The tapioca pearls are always soft. My day is always better when I get Tastea. read more

Good service .. small parking lot.. to me seems a bit on the price side .. drinks are good and well sized ..

The Avocado Avalanche Smoothie has become my new obsession, and yes, so glad that this Tastea location is so close to my in laws in the South Bay. It's the perfect treat for the drive home to the SGV after a visit... 5 stars!!!!! Tastea definitely satisfies my Avocado dessert cravings from my childhood in the Philippines. If you've never tried avocado as a dessert, give it a chance! Yes, you can't just make guacamole or toast with avocados. The Avocado Avalanche Smoothie at Tastea is a delicious yummy drink! Unfortunately, this smoothie is dependent on having a supply of avocados, and sometimes it's not available. Other delicious drinks that I consider ordering include the Chamango and Lychee Freeze Slushies as well as the Passion Attraction Fruit Tea and the Tiger Milk Tea. It will definitely take more visits to taste the many other offerings at Tastea, but so far, no drink has disappointed. Highly recommend that you download the Tastea app. Not only can you order ahead for pickup through the app, but there are always sample promotions that one can get through the app. Moreover, you can easily collect points which can give you discounts on future drinks and/or food! This Tastea location has a very small parking lot, but it does offer a drive-thru. My advice is to simply order from the app and retrieve the yummy goodness at the pick-up window. read more
