    Popcorn Milktea with Brown Sugar Tapiochi
    Jackie D.

    YUMMY!!!! The Popcorn Milktea is soo smooth and buttery, I've never had anything like it! And omg the tapiochi!! 10/10!! I shouldn't be drinking dairy because I'm lowkey lactose but it will forever be worth it for a milktea boba LMAO!! :') Went on a Saturday afternoon, even though it was busy, didn't have to wait very long. Definitely a cool little boba spot!

    Famous for their popcorn milk tea. I got it half sweet so perfect sweetness for me but the milk tea was decent, wouldn't be my favorite but the mochi jelly texture like was very unique and I would go back for that topping. It wasn't chewier than regular jelly but not boba jelly. Good try and good toppings.

    One of my favorite boba spots ever! I love that they do not do traditional boba. I much prefer the jellies and tapaochi! The texture is perfect, if you like jello you'll like this. The drinks are also the perfect amount of sweetness. Normally at boba shops I adjust to 50% sugar, but here 100% is just fine. I do feel the tea quality has gone a bit down since they have expanded. But overall, it is still good. The service is always great & they always have a sample to give you when you enter. My personal favorite is the misty oolong. The first time I came I tried the popcorn milk tea and it was a little over rated. I think great for people that love popcorn flavored things but not my vibe. Their cassia is also good if you're looking for a non-caffeinated version.

    * a passion project created by a physician * rather than traditional boba, this tea shop handcrafts unique toppings in-house, offering different flavored tapiochi (tapioca + mochi) and jellies (my favorite is the osmanthus jelly!) * each location has store exclusive drinks 10/10

    The chino location seems to be more convenient to me only because they have a larger parking lot. I got the creme brulee drink which is always very good. I also got the matcha duo einspanner which i felt like wasn't as good as the regular matcha einspanner. I'm used to the toro tea in Chino making that one a thick texture so I assumed the duo einspanner would be the same but more matcha but the flavor and texture just wasn't as good. This location is a lot brighter inside compared to chinos which I did like. I also liked that The workers felt more eager to serve you compared to chino.

    Torotea has really fragrant drinks. I highly recommend the Double Matcha!! It's like Super Matcha on Steriods! The Jellies are made in house!

    One of my favorite milk tea spots! Bummed at their recent price hike - one of my favorites the popcorn milk tea is now around $9... I tend to get their fruit teas like the calamansi oolong twist as their milk teas, albeit incredibly fragrant, are not as strong as I'd like after milk is added. The interior is very aesthetic although quite small- I was occasionally able to snag a spot to enjoy the drinks inside with friends. Service is friendly.

    Really enjoying the uva milk tea with black tea tapiochi. I get it less sweet and it's perfect. Hoping they add more black teas to the menu in the future! They mostly have oolongs on the menu currently. Definitely on the pricy side, especially since their toppings are an extra dollar on top of the $6-9+ for your drink. I don't think any drink should be close to $10 so that part is a little off putting. Still don't recommend their matcha, especially since they're $8.55-9.85 and taste pretty bad and chalky to me. Would recommend trying out their other tea drinks instead.

    I've tried toro tea out a few more times and realized their non-viral drinks are so much more my cup of tea (pun intended). I've had the ember milk tea and cassia milk tea my last two visits while sampling the jellies that could come with each drink. I do appreciate Toro tea for unique, low/no caffeine options. That being said, the price is still crazy high and it really sucks if you get a drink you don't want. If you're new to toro tea, I'd go with a group so you can try each others drinks to know what works best for you.

    I used to love coming to torotea from OC, but after today I probably won't visit as often or at all. While the drinks have remained consistent as far as I can tell, there has been a SIGNIFICANT price increase across all drinks on the menu. The lack of a rewards program also makes it less enticing to return, as they used to have one in the very beginning. I am aware that a new location just opened in Santa Ana, but it doesn't have the Yelp waitlist system just fyi, so the line is incredibly long.

    My all-time favorite drink spot! I've been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. My go-to is the Osmanthus Citrus Refresher--it's so refreshing and always hits the spot. I've tried a lot of their other drinks too, and they're all delicious. At this point, I'm honestly just a hardcore Torotea fan. If you're visiting for the first time, I definitely recommend giving the Osmanthus Citrus Refresher a try! The shop is clean and inviting, and there's plenty of parking, making it an easy stop whenever you're craving a drink.

    Torotea is a boba tea shop with multiple locations across the Southern California area. This one is located in a small plaza in Diamond Bar. We went when it wasn't super busy but when it is you can join the virtual waitlist to secure your spot. We got the jasmine oolong milk tea ($6.60) with passionfruit jelly ($1) and the misty oolong milk tea ($6.60) with brown sugar tapiochi ($1). We really tasted the freshness and the tea in both drinks which is always what you want and expect in your milk tea. The jelly had only a mild passionfruit flavor but was still good and unique. The brown sugar tapiochi was interesting. The drinks were on the pricier side especially with the smaller volume. The quality of the tea was good though so if that's what you value, this is a good place to go.

I had stopped by because I wanted to get a croffle for myself. Of course, trying their coffee was also on my to do list. We stopped by on a Sunday morning, and quickly got to place our order.

It didn't take long for us to get our coffee or our pastry. Their plain croffle was good, but I wished we had the option to have it warmed up. Their everything seasoned croffle was decent if you want a savory pastry. My banana cream latte was strong, but wasn't strong in banana flavoring. I mixed my cream too towards the bottom, and still found barely taste it. The baristas here are also very aesthetic and silly. They had a great time making coffee and taking orders. The art here is stunning. There's also plenty of study space with cushioning available. It's a lovely concept. I think I'll have to come back to try a different drink.

For the drink, I ended up getting the banana latte. Been on a streak of getting that lately so wanted to compare with other stores. I didn't get a lot of banana in the taste. At least it had an espresso shot for the caffeine fix and did not taste like the artificial banana. Nothing special there and stand out. For the interior, they had a few seating they primarily accommodated a few groups of four and two. I was able to grab a bench seat that had an outlet. However, there wasn't enough space for my laptop and the items I ordered. WiFi was available but it had a 90 minute limit. The store had a moderate noise level and stayed busy throughout the time that I was there. The service on the order was quick and they do bring it out to you. The store also has their own house espresso which was a medium dark roast. American Express is accepted as a payment option here. Overall, it was a decent work spot. If I come back, I'd prefer to try another drink and hope other pastries are available. Would recommend the biscoff cheesecake for those that want something sweet and the house coffee beans for those that like medium roasts.
