Matcha milk with strawberry crystal boba

Jan L.

Saw their sign near Cheesecake Factory and wanted to give it a try. Menu was eye catching. They just opened for the day, so no line. I ordered a matcha milk with strawberry crystal Boba. It looked like Christmas in a cup and was very good! Two employees behind the counter were nice but spoke very quietly. Almost shy like so I had to strain a little to hear them. Gave them a Xmas tip in the jar! This will be a place to take my granddaughter next time.

Logo is cute. I like the design of the drinks. I like the number of options they have.

Klariza F.

They have really huge bobas, but the quality in taste is not as good as other places I've been too. The boba tasted bad, not soft like most places I've been to. It was chewy, just not the right mouth feel. It was too sweet for my friend, but maybe he wasn't aware of a sugar adjustment he could have made. It's at a food court at the mall so there is a lot of places to sit and enjoy your beverage. I would recommend Teaspoon or Daboba versus this place.

Char B.

Cute logo, terrible taste. Couldn't even drink 1/3 of it before throwing it away. I got a green thai tea & it tasted like super watered down jasmine tea. The quality if super terrible. Would not recommend

It taste like a cup of ice water with boba in it... come on a weekday lunch it's not busy.

I love boba drinks and I've had them in many places throughout SD. Unfortunately this is the worst one so far. Strawberry smoothie wasn't made with real strawberries and very strong artificial flavor. The brown sugar boba wasn't made very sweet. The syrup sank to the bottom and not mixing well with the tea (not real tea). Their ice cream was good though but they didn't make them in house. I wouldn't come here for boba drinks again.

I was at North County Mall and wanted to grab some dinner at the food court. I saw Tea Monks and couldn't pass up an opportunity to try a new boba spot. I ordered the Zen Thai Milk Tea. It wasn't prepared as quickly as I thought, especially with it being just me another person there but it was fine. Overall the drink was just okay. It wasn't bad but wasn't anything crazy either. Possibly tasted a little watered down. It is nice that there's a boba place at the mall now if you're craving some while shopping. Though I personally would wait to grab some elsewhere.

Love love Tea Monks! Love all their flavors but my favorite is the taro. My go to spot every time I'm at the mall!

Looking to hydrate yourself with something sweet in NCM? Tea monks is where it's at. This boba spot offers many options for your bubble tea hydration needs. I usually hang out for my boba teas in central San Diego, I was happy to find this spot when I went shopping at the North County Mall. I was pleasantly surprised to see different flavors I've never heard of before so my friend I tried some of them. We tried the Mango Lychee Milk Tea and the Green Thai Tea! Both of them were absolutely delish. However, I tried my lychee milk tea with the balls and didn't really like them as I thought I would. Boba balls are always best when ordering bubble tea! If you're here reading this review, what are you waiting for? Try it out.

Betty Q.

Fast service. Tasty drinks. Refreshing. Relaxing in the shopping mall drinking up my mango lychee milk tea. The iced coconut taro was ok too.

Cindy L.

I haven't really try any boba tea cause (1) I was working in FB all the time (2) I just came back from a boba tea country ..... I think I'm lack of information myself about boba tea here ........ the picture catch my eyes and we order these two drinks , they are OK , not any surprises, the boba with my tea was a little overcook , oh the surprise was these two drinks cost me $16 !!!! OMG !!!!

Aaron R.

The flavors were great. The boba was nice and cheery and the tea was refreshing. The colors were appealing and beautiful.

Our drinks came out fast and price is a little high for what it is. Not bad for a mall boba place and they were probably busy. We got strawberry matcha with strawberry jelly, it was only matcha with the jelly basically. Nothing really made it a strawberry matcha drink, maybe they forgot something? Also got a strawberry banana smoothie but definitely not a lot of strawberry, just tastes like a banana smoothie lol. read more

BOBA brings me life & joy! SO HAPPY tea monks USA has moved into the North County Mall! We got their strawberry matcha milk tea & mango lychee lemonade with lychee jelly! Personally loved the mango lychee lemonade since it was a warmer day and very refreshing! But they have lots of milk tea flavors for any time of season! Also, I discovered that they have more options for toppings than other boba spots such flavored jelly (lychee, mango, peach, etc), matcha, honey boba, & more! Def will be back here! read more

Tea Monks has their original location in Carlsbad, and this location just opened up a week ago in the mall in Escondido! Took my son here for a treat and got lots of videos but not many still photos :( Love that their drinks aren't overly sweet and you can adjust sweetness levels and customize toppings. Got a mango slush no boba for the kiddo and I got a Pink Paradise (green tea w/ peach & lychee flavors) with peach popping boba. So refreshing!

The service was okay. I asked for light boba for my Taro Slushie and they gave me the regular amount of boba. I'm a big fan of boba and this one was the worse one I've had. Super watered down, can't taste the taro at all and to top it off, wayy too much boba when I had initially asked for 'light boba'. Don't usually give low reviews but was disappointed with this one. read more

The menu is huge so there's something for everyone, unfortunately the drinks were just ok. The strawberry matcha tasted very artificial. I didn't taste the fresh strawberries at all. I couldn't even see the strawberry layer before I mixed it, so I doubt there's even any strawberries in the drink. The matcha tasted like artificial matcha powder, like it wasn't real matcha powder but a flavoring that was meant to taste like matcha. The boba texture was chewy which was good. It was also very expensive. $6.90 for their medium size which is a large at other places. Service was friendly and the drinks came out quick, just wish they tasted better as I would be a regular it they did. read more

Boba is decent, service is the worst (coming from an ex food service worker) I usually come and get a matcha milk tea 50% sweet with strawberry pearls and I've never had an issue before... except this last time. I ordered from and tipped a blonde boy who was very nice (not sure what his name was). Then I got my drink and it was overwhelmingly sweet, I thought maybe I had to stir it so I did but it was still disgustingly sweet. I wasn't upset at all I thought perhaps it was just a mistake so I went to the front and explained to them very politely that my drink was very sweet and if there was any chance I could get it remade because I only wanted 50% sweet. The girl I talked to was SO RUDE. She told me it was the strawberry pearls, I told her no that I get this same drink a lot with the pearls and that it's the drink itself that was sweet. She told me "no it's not, matcha isn't sweet" which was a stupid thing to say considering the drink is made with milk, liquid SUGAR SYRUP, and matcha. Obviously im aware that matcha isn't sweet by itself.. But I didn't say that to her, I just kept politely asking if I could have it remade. She kept arguing with me saying it's not sweet and eventually said "I can just put water in it" with attitude. After arguing for 4 minutes straight someone else in there said they'd remake it. I don't understand why the argument was necessary, how are you going to tell me it isn't sweet when IM the one drinking it bruh. I've never even asked them to remake a drink before, I'm not a Karen but this really had me heated considering I tipped & everything. The girl was tall maybe like 5'8 ish, Asian, and on the bigger side. I've seen her argue with customers before when I've come but I always minded my business and assumed the best. I hope the managers see this honestly because you shouldn't have an employee talking crazy to customers for no reason. Unnecessary. read more

This is our first time coming here and buying the mango moon. The taste is okay. It taste like a smoothie. I cant taste the mango much. The boba is a bit hard. the worst part of it is the amount of time it took to make these two. I think it can definitely improve on how fast it should take and there weren't anyone ordering it was just us and it took almost 20 minutes to get these two drinks. You are at the mall- you need speed. read more

I got a classic black milk tea with honey boba and both the drink and boba were literally so bland. It tasted like diluted milk. Also keep in mind I got a 24oz sized drink, which isn't even their biggest size and costed me almost $7. I recommend you save your time and money and skip this place. read more

There's no seating inside but they have a cute seating area outside. Unfortunately today it was super windy so we just got our smoothies to go. They have kind of a strange hodgepodge of items for sale inside, but they've obviously found that their clientele will buy other things. Some hair care, products, some kids, toys, batteries, popsicles, and candy. I got the peanut butter energizer smoothie. I had them add yogurt and whey protein to it. It was pretty tasty, but I think it would've been watery if I had not added the additional things. My man got the blueberry slapper smoothie and he also added whey protein to it. His was very light on flavor, I think they used too much ice. The only thing I really tasted out of that smoothie was a little bit of blueberry. It also had yogurt and oats, but it didn't have any sort of creaminess to it. They've got a really nicely sized menu with the sandwiches and açai bowls in addition to smoothies and fresh juices. I would try them out again.

First time in the area and looking at this coffee shop right in the first floor near entrance and…read morethink to give it a try. At first I decided what I want then after payment there is NEW drink promotion right on bottom left of the register and decided to change it to Honey Golden Latte, I think that's the name. The lady ask if I want to change it since it's the same price and yes I did. There's only 1 Lady working and 2 waiting list. No rush, nice ambience and places. I stand in front of the condiment area think I need to add more on my drinks but after the first sip, I LOVED IT! Good color and consistency on my coffee, and look at all the syrup they have!! Customer services is nice. The lady doing great! Will come and try again when I'm in area

They have your standard coffee shop drinks and a few specialty coffees, usually there's no line and prices are slightly below Starbucks prices. They don't offer tap water at all, u have to buy a water bottle for $2. There's some seating available.

Love, love. Love this place. The employees are so nice. I come here whenever I'm in the area to shop. My favorite is the fresh GREEN THAI TEA & my family loves their slushie series. The boba here is always fresh. I love that they have a different types of toppings than most. 100% recommend this location. Their customer service is superb. They're definitely the best.

The boba was pretty good, service was dope. Caleb is the GOAT of boba, every cup he pours tastes like the ambrosia nectar of the gods of Olympus, when I took my first sip I could hear angels singing. Caleb is just the sweetest little boy, he definitely deserves a big fat raise. I am in eternal debt to Caleb, king of boba. read more

I got the green apple slushy and it came out super cold and it tasted amazing. The cashier was super nice and helpful on which drink I should have chosen I believe his name was Caleb. He came out with my drink almost instantly after I ordered, would definitely go there again. read more
