Boba is well cooked, and the drink isn’t too sweet. Very good!

Finally got to try this place! And now I know why there's always a long line. There's a lot of drinks on the menu but my favorite is the longan jujube tea.

I loveee this tea place! It is tea forward, and has so many options. I try something new each time I am here. The toppings have great texture. My favorite combo so far is the golden phoenix oolong with oat milk, osthmanthus jelly, and lavender cream foam. It has been on my list since last year and so happy I finally was able to try it this year, so much that I've been 3 times and it is only March , LOL. Parking is covered lot, so yay it's easy. If you love tea sweets, come give them a try, I know I'll be back!

Took 40+ mins to get our drinks (two bobas) after ordering it. The place is not even that crowded…..If you have a lot of time to waste, feel free to stop by.

WARNING: the service is extremely slow. They have about five staffs in the kitchen and counter, ans there were about 11 people in the store, it took more than an hour to get my drinks. It is just not worth that much wait.

My first time trying their boba They have plenty of topping options! Their boba is a small pearl, not the regular size boba. I think they could have cooked it better bc some of them stuck together and were not chewy enough. The tea flavor is good (oriental beauty oolong and alisan mountain tea). I like how they break down the roasted level and fermentation level. Since many of their tea isn't just typical black tea, red tea and green tea, they way they add a description of the tea's aroma also helps customers to imagine the flavor before ordering.

One of many boba fancy tea places around rhe area. Once you walk in you get a great punch of the aroma fragrance of the tea. They have a description like coffee filling you with the profiles of the note and flavor. Tried one of their mountain tea. I was advise that it's bitter boy it sure was . So if they mention that and you're not a fan of the bitter get it sweeten. On the higher end of the price scale

Really nice boba place. It feels a bit more upscale than the others I've been to. The employees are very nice and quick. I chose a standard Thai tea with boba. I would say - I do love how they have a lot of customization choices from the type of milk to the filling to how much sugar you want to how much ice. Many boba places (at least the ones I've been to) only do a couple of the customizations. My boba tea was perfect and honestly, it was a lot for the money. Highly recommend!

Delicious strong tea flavor for their boba! One of the better LA boba spots. It's not as good as Orobae in OC, but I heard they use similar methods of brewing their tea. (i think similar to an espresso method). I think I got the rising crane drink, it was not too sweet. The tapioca is smaller in size compared to most places so it was jarring to sip at first. 4.5/5!

I went on a Thursday around 9:00pm and it was slightly busy and I waited around 10 minutes for my drink. The tea is brewed very nicely and taste fresh. The service was very nice and helpful. I would recommend to visit and try the tea.

Their iced grapefruit orange green tea is good, they also have lots of tea choices. The staff is very friendly, too. I will definitely go there if I am in the neighborhood.

The drinks are good.The atmosphere is miserable. This place is loud. The acoustics are so unpleasant that I had to leave. There were 15 people there and it sounded like 50.

Got the earl grey black tea with whole milk and added lavender cream foam, did 75% sweet and omg it was heaven. If you're like me and you like floral drinks but not too sweet, this is the one. I think even 50% would be okay. I'd definitely be back and try other milk teas!
