    Matcha latte and brûlée Milky Way
    Janet T.

    We just finished having Shabu Shabu at Shabuworks and so we were so thirsty afterwards. I searched on Yelp for the nearest Boba and shaved ice place and TEA AMO appeared... BRÛLÉE MILK TEA: 8/10 Not bad and the drink was very thick. It was nice and creamy and more like a dessert... MATCHA LATTE: 7/10 The fragrance was nice but, I could not taste much of the matcha. The milk and sugar was overpowering the matcha. Perhaps the matcha ratio was 30% and milk and sugar were 70% SERVICE: B+ Hardworking and was very focused on work. Not much of a chatterbox but, she got the job done. AMBIANCE: 9/10 Very charming and lovely place to sit, sip and chat at... TEA AMO KEEP ON ROCKN!!!!!

    Taro Milk and House Toter Tots
    Loan N.

    Great little spot in a convenient plaza with plenty of parking! Service was a bit slow. I was a bit disappointed they were already out of popcorn chicken by 6:00 PM, but it gave me a chance to try the House Tater Tots instead. The tots were the absolute highlight of the visit. I also ordered the Taro Milk with Taro Mud. It was decent and hit the spot, though I've had more flavorful versions elsewhere.

    Strawberry Bingsoo! Delicious
    Amelia T.

    Came here for dessert and we got a Mango and Strawberry Bingsoo. Both were delicious and In my opinion large enough to share. It's not icy, it's more of a creamy texture. It's takes more time for them to make this so be patient. Service was friendly. Place was clean and cute.

    I was in the San Marcos area for work and decided to check out this tea shop nearby. The ambiance inside was very nice -- clean, minimalistic aesthetics that made for a chill vibe. No line when we arrived around 3 PM on a weekday, so ordering was quick and easy. We ordered the royal milk tea and jasmine milk tea with boba. The jasmine milk tea at 50% sweetness still felt a bit too sweet for me and honestly had more of a juice-like taste -- the tea flavor didn't really shine through. The boba itself was solid: semi-sweet, chewy, and fresh. We also tried the mango bingsoo, which was excellent. The shaved ice was super light and airy, topped with condensed milk and a cherry. The only real downside was the "fresh" mango, which unfortunately wasn't ripe and ended up being quite bitter -- a bit of a letdown on an otherwise great dessert. Overall: tea was not super impressive, but the bingsoo was solid and worth trying.

    Steep Thoughts: Florence's Quest for (Her) Perfect Black Milk Tea Black milk tea: 0.5/2. I got the Royal Milk Tea, 25% sweet. For me, this drink was nothing special. It's very milky and not bitter, but even at 25% sweet, the tea flavor is not particularly strong. Overall a smooth and mild milk tea. The specialty drinks here seem to be more popular overall. Other drinks: 1/1. Lots of fun fruity teas, as well as milk teas, smoothies, and even coffee drinks. Ambiance: 1/1. Pleasant and spacious with plenty of bar and table seating. Good amount of parking. Service: 0.5/1. Order at the counter. Can be a little slower when there is only one worker there, but otherwise drinks come out reasonably fast. Total: 3/5

    Uji Matcha Frappe and dirty Thai blended
    Yna B.

    The drinks were really good , I ordered the dirty thai blend and Matcha frappe, both were really good but I loved the blended Thai tea. Service was alright. The server this early on a Sunday 2/15.2026 wasn't as friendly. She seemed very grumpy and unhappy to be working. We said good morning and she just informed us. but the place is cute and ambience of the place was nice. Drinks were also good!

    Daughter was in the mood for a quick sweet drink after practice so came here since they were on our way home. We arrived just before closing and staff was very friendly and sweet. Daughter ordered the taro milk tea. She liked it. She was just sad it didn't have the plastic top to pop the straw right in but still enjoyed it.

    Thai Milk Tea
    SD G.

    It's so hard to support small businesses when you're paying for something that's horrible! I've had bingsu many times at other places, and this is by far the worst I've ever had. I'm so disappointed! Just look at it -- it's so sad! Instead of fresh mango, it's made with hard, cold, tiny mango chunks. The shaved ice is flavored with mango syrup instead of real mango. It's just syrupy ice -- nothing else! Other places include pudding, ice cream, and other toppings underneath.

    Potted Plant Milk Tea
    Alexandria W.

    I was here today for the first time in a long time and I forgot how fun their menu was. All the drinks are really cute and some of them are fun like the potted plant one with Oreos on top to make it look like dirt. I really liked the potted plant and the service was friendly and quick.

    One of the best boba spot imo and they have bingsoo too
    Lynda D.

    One of the best boba / bingsoo spot imo.. came here after eating manna with friends and they wanted boba so we went here and this place never disappoint.. service is always welcoming and the drinks come out pretty quick for all 6 drinks! Now that's fast service with quality drinks.. definitely need to come back here next time for the mango bingsoo.. the lighting here is good.. u get the sunlight if you're in the front.. and towards the back has social media worthy shots you could take.. overall I'd give this place a 10 stars if I could

    Tasty drinks, excellent customer service. Had the mango / peach and sea salt blender. Would order it again.

    Drinks: mango green tea, milky way
    Tania T.

    We came here on a rainy day so naturally, my hubby went down to place the order for us. He grabbed the receipt that was handed to him. He came back to help me take of our kids and I took the receipt to go back in to pick up our drinks and possibly order some popcorn chicken. I came in, waited and when I saw the drinks came out, I came up to the counter to pick it up, showed the receipt, and the girl looked at me weirdly. When I saw the "receipt" it didn't list the item we ordered. It was just a credit card proof of transaction. Thus, I had to go out in the rain and get my husband to pick up the drinks for us. First of all, if you're handing out a receipt, it should show the items ordered!!! And please don't treat patrons with weird looks... We ordered a mango green tea and milky way. The drinks are decent but not a very nice first experience. I ended up not getting the popcorn chicken because I'm not trying to get drenched and get more dirty looks from the staff here. From the looks of it, the place is pretty nice and looks clean. I don't know if I'd come back.

The shop is in a convenient shopping center with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. It's a small, cozy spot with a really cute setup. Each time I've gone, it's been the same person working, and he's always incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes a big difference. I've tried a few different coffee drinks, and every single one has been delicious although the Mazapan Latte is my absolute favorite! Definitely a must try. The combination of great service and consistently amazing coffee is exactly why I keep coming back. Definitely worth checking out and making the drive since I'm in Carlsbad.
