    Mango strawberry tea, Thai milk tea
    Faith D.

    I've been to other tea monks that I had a good experience with. This one was not the greatest. They had three people working and we still waited quite a while to order, standing at the counter (no one in line in front of us) and it appeared that they weren't busy making drinks either. Also it was the middle of a weekend day and they had no boba. My mango strawberry tea was ok but wouldn't be something I order again.

    The tea I ordered. Taro monk tea blended.

    Came in the other day to get something nice and cold since it's been really hot and I had a few questions on what I liked because I wanted something with coconut. The young lady Daisy behind the counter and advised me that the taro blended was very good!

    I ordered the strawberry matcha, not bad but weak in flavor, love the cups and the drink selection is great

    Tiger Milk Tea with yogu jelly, delicious!

    I've had a few types of drinks from here and they're all delicious. Tiger milk tea, a fruit lemonade and a mango lychee milk tea, to name a few. The tiger milk tea is exactly the flavor profile i've been searching for, perfect amount of sweetness without losing out on the flavor of the tea. The mango lychee MT is good but the lychee flavor is more prominent than the mango. Service is whatever, not much to be expected there from a mall kiosk. It being inside a shopping mall, the vibes are what you would expect. Would definitely return!

    Yessenia gave amazing customer service! She was super helpful in giving me caffeine-free drink options and made the experience great

    We went to the mall and want something to drink so we tried this place. I would not recommend this place. The drink are bad. We got one jasmine green tea with no sugar and it is okay since it's just the regular tea. Taro smoothie is very bad. It's no flavor and it's not sweet at all. It just taste like water with a little taro smell. Strawberry smoothie is also bad. It's still has a junk of ice there and it taste like strawberry milk. Really bad customer services. The server is not friendly at all. Will not come back to this place again.

    It's been super hot and had to go to the mall and pick up some pre workout. Had to stop by and saw this new boba spot and have to say the mango slushie with boba was not bad. I was not greeted by the cashier but didn't take it personal. They are young kids working at a mall who probably would rather be at the beach. Anyways, I greeted them first and I was welcomed with a smile. Not too long of a wait and there was a steady line of people.

    mango + strawberry green tea

    Jessica was super helpful when I was indecisive, and my order came super quick as well. Also the large is massive for what the price of a regular at other boba shops would be.

    Honey dew smoothie

    Clarrisa was super kind and helpful made my first visit a great one! plus recommend a smoothie which turned out very good

    Counter

    This Tea Monks location is the third one in SD. It's substantially smaller given the location of the food court in Parkway Plaza as there is just an ordering counter for drinks and pick up. I've already tried some of their milk teas and have also tried their Honeydew drink. I got a Tiger Milk Tea this time and was assured that the half sweet wasn't going to be too sweet which is my preference. The line does get long as they are newer and lots of people wanted drinks. I got my drink in around 10 minutes and my Tiger Milk Tea was actually a brown sugar mixture when I thought it was usually a mix of thai tea and black tea. It was the right amount of sweetness for me! Overall, it's pretty standard boba tea and it will suffice your boba craving at the mall.

    Pomegranate Mango Lemonade

    Yesenia and Clarissa would super nice and asked if I wanted to sample the drink before I purchased and tastes fire!

    A friend told me I needed to try this place. They were right. This fruit bar does not disappoint…read more On a hot day this would be the most refreshing place to go. All of their fruit for their smoothies, fruit plates or açaí bowls is very fresh ,not frozen. I had a strawberry mango smoothie with apple juice . The juice is fresh squeezed with no added sugar. My friend had a watermelon smoothies that tasted just like a watermelon! I will be back. I k ow my family will love this place too. It is casual and a quick healthy snack. The staff was very friendly and helpful with questions. I''m looking forward to my next Kravngs when I am in Santee.

    I'm always on the lookout for a Mexican Fruit Salad restaurant and Kravings was my next one to try…read more I live 15 miles away (Mira Mesa) and saw this place earlier when I was last nearby getting gas at Costco. Their offerings range from smoothies, juices, wraps and salads. They use fresh ingredients. The granola that they use isn't the Mexican kind but for me wasn't a big issue. We ordered a Large Fruit Salad to share and a mango smoothie as well as a green smoothie for my wife. The establishment was quiet for the most part. It was Sunday late afternoon. And service was relatively quick. The food was served quickly enough and the portions in the salad was good. My mango smoothie was good and not over the top sweet. I am definitely coming back for more!
