“Customer Service 5/5 Food / Snack 5/5 -generous serving Boba- 5/5 Travelled from Adelaide,SA to LA and will come back for it again.“

“Love this perfect neighborhood cafe. Incredible drinks and it’s also open late. Highly recommend the Hojicha toasted milk tea. It’s for this wonderfully nutty flavor, and every other drink I’ve had here has also been fantastic. Super fast, friendly service. Lots of tables to sit around.“

“One of my favorite boba spots!

Came twice in 2 days while visitng!

We ordered:
golden budda silk boba $7.50, + extra $1 for large
jasmine green oolong $5 + $2 for large and jasmine silk boba

First day, staff messed up drink by missing boba, and tea flavor wasn't very prominent in jasmine green oolong. Second day was a bit better. Tested sugar level from perfect to extra, and its definitely drastic. Quality control could be better here.

Street parking only.“

“best Boba and coffee beverages!! not super sweet... staff always friendly and the shop is beyond immaculate“

“a little expensive on the regular but if you follow their instagram page sometimes they have special deal days like this day that i went they had $5 double matcha and their matcha is one of the better ones ive had in westwood (ive had a lot)“

“I loved the citrus tea.. it was delicious.“

“I got their matcha and it was exactly what I’d hope for in a matcha - well blended and tasty. They have almond and oat milk, and also give you options for how sweet it can be in percentages (I think they use a simple syrup to sweeten the drinks and will default to making it sweet if you don’t request it to be completely unsweetened). The shop is set up like a stand, with a mixed indoor/outdoor feel that is mostly outside with a rain cover, but with additional seating outside outside. It is located in an area that gets a lot of foot traffic and would probably be great for people watching at sunnier/busier times, plus the cup size is quite large for the price.“

“Amazing Concept of collectibles and Fashion with boba! Truly one of a kind, and there drinks are delicious.“

“EXTRA SPICY IS EXTRA SPICY. Please be careful. Also beware of boba pearls clumping together if you don't move it around enough. Great strong tea flavor, great+fast service, chicken is crispy. Clean bathrooms.

Update: Staff was extraordinarily kind to give me ice water when I was dying from spice.“

“They have a great variety, they are very welcoming, and the place has a good social vibe.“

“Salmon Ikura dish is amazing! So much flavor!“

“I really enjoyed this place! The ambience was fun and the staff were super friendly helping us pick out our drinks. We even ran into Mr. Glover himself LOL - seemed like a really nice guy. Definitely perfect for anyone who wants boba in the silverlake area!“

“Love this place! Everyone who works there is so friendly. The lattes are great and they carry Out of Thin Air pastries. The beautiful flower arrangements available for purchase are a bonus. I don’t know much about ice cube variants, but something about the shape and size of their ice cubes are perfect? Parking in the lot can be tough if you aren’t there early but there is usually something available on the street.“

“The drinks were very good healthy choice“

“Best fruit healthy tea !!!“

“Hot day. We had a relax time with amazing tea!!!“

“Friendly service... good for everyone’s and good taste drink. Love boba time drinks“

“Excellent service 👍👍👍 Love this place ..“

“Food:
Please please please get the beuongo bbang (붕어빵/taiyaki). As a korean american Ive been craving the pastry that my halmoni used to get me back in Korea and this is the most authentic and delicious one that beats the one in Korea! I was so startled by the taste that I urged my parents to try and they agreed that the batter is really well made. The drinks were great too but definitely on the sweeter side (try the zodiac drinks, thought it was a cute way to try introduce new drink combos).

Parking and store:
Parking lot is a decent size for it being in ktown. The store is small inside but the atmosphere is so cozy and cute.

Service:
Im pretty sure the man who was taking my owner was also the owner but he was super friendly. Would go out of his way to make sure customers can find the bathroom and would check in with each of his customers.“

“Friendly service... good for everyone’s and good taste drink. Love boba time drinks“

“delicious amazing boba so many flavors yum! hazelnut is my favorite its soooooo good“

“i absolutely love this place. The owners are super sweet and the food is DDDEEELLISSHH!“

“The best brown sugar drink I've tried so far. ​The drink is smooth and milky, and blends very well with the brown sugar drizzled around the cup. ​It's also not too overpowering, so it's not weak. ​The pearls are chewy and well-infused with delicious brown sugar.“

“Friendly service... good for everyone’s and good taste drink. Love boba time drinks“

“Cute pho spot! Delicious food w great service! Their sweatshirt are dope too!“

“What is there not to love about Alfred Coffee of WeHo! 😊“

“First heard of this place through social media and had a lot of hype due to the brand being popular in South Korea. If you love brown sugar or croffles, this is the place to go!

Interior is super cute and spacious, a lot of tables and seats with a small arcade with a LIFE4CUTS booth on the side. A nice extra to the space. I've seen many events that are held here because of how big the space is.

The cafe is located in the front of the plaza, down the stairs of the front of the plaza, easy to spot but at the same time, hard to look for at the same time because of where its located. Parking is free if not staying over 90 minutes and can be validated by HHD staff.

HHD menu is massive, many options to try. The spot is very popular on the weekends and late afternoons. Kiosk ordering is available but the kiosk is a bit slow, unresponsive, and not programmed correctly compared to other cafes. Wait times can get long especially when busy and depending on order, but staff is super friendly and professional.

From the recommendations, their Dalgona & brown sugar is definitely a must try. Although a bit sweet even with lower adjustments, the tea is refreshing on a hot day. Aside from the signature drinks, the Matcha Strawberry Latte is also super refreshing and mixes really well together.

Will definitely be back to try the croffles and the numerous other options in the menu.“

“This review is a shoutout to Frankie. Even though it was super busy, she took the time to chat w a little girl, asked her about school, tested her a math question and asked her name. Great customer service Frankie! I hope the owner sees how you go out of your way to make customers feel seen and appreciated!“

“Sunright Tea Studio in Ktown is an absolute gem for boba enthusiasts like myself! I've been a regular here for quite some time, and their Fruit Tea is my absolute go-to every visit. I always order it at 50% sweetness, and it's consistently perfect. The ambiance is cozy, and the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. If you're in the area and craving some top-notch boba, look no further than Sunright Tea Studio!“

“i enjoy this spot for both studying and spending time with friends. they have a great amount and variety of both indoor and outdoor seating. the drinks they serve also have a wide selection to choose from, with the mango mochi being one of my favorites. i recently tried the pistachio croissant which was so balanced in not being too sweet while being a perfect treat/dessert after our meal right before. definitely a spot i enjoy returning to frequently“

“I ordered a simple Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba and Tea Jelly at 50% sugar.

My partner ordered the Mango Pomelo, subbed sago to Boba and added Tea Jelly, also at 50% sugar.

We both loved our drinks, a lot. We might try without Boba next time as we felt it didn't have a ton of flavor, although the texture / chewyness was great.

Definitely keeping the Tea Jelly as a topping, it was great.

Absolutely will return in the future!

My partner is already craving the mango pomeolo and wants to get it a second day in a row!“

“One of the things I love about this place is that the workers are always so efficient. The drinks are delicious, but the hospitality is what keeps me coming back. Billy, the chill guy with the beanie is THE BEST!! Ask for him and you won’t get disappointed! ✨“

“What really makes this place stand out for me?
They put way more boba than most places, and it tastes so good!
The boba are fresh, not sticky, and have that perfect chewy texture.
You can definitely taste the freshly squeezed juice in the drink, and there’s a lot of it, too.
Overall, super tasty! Definitely a spot I’d come back to regularly if you love fruit teas and good boba.“

“I absolutely love their blended menu, especially the Thai tea and Matcha! The best part is their cream and also how they blended it— it’s just how I like it!

This is hands down my favorite for all the boba shops I’ve tried in Gardena! 🫶🏻🧋✨“

“The QQ Happy Family is worth the hassle of parking and walking a long distance.

Parking: It took us almost 20 minutes to find parking, but it was a 2-minute walk from there. Definitely try to park in Parking B. Sharetea is next to the entrance/exit on the lower level of the Galleria extension over Central, along Broadway.

Wheelchair accessibility: Park in Parking B on lower level, if you can. Otherwise, you will need to go far and/or take an elevator. I have no idea where the elevator is.“

“Buen servicio muy amables“

“Got the honey milk boba and the passionfruit tea boba. Both were absolutely delicious! The perfect amount of sweet. The lady at the front was so nice and even put in some candies from Korea into my order. Will definitely be back! Such great energy & the drinks were on point.“

“Orders made quickly. Ordered Strawberry milk, Brown Sugar Boba, Coconut Mango Paradise, and the new flavor, Banana Milk.

Just a few tables and chairs to sit inside and outside.

Street parking or parking lot behind the store“

“I love Sunny Blue. It’s perfect for a quick bite—grab one onigiri as a snack or a few for a full meal. I’ve tried most of the menu, and my go-tos are the Miso Beef, Chicken Curry, and Spicy Salmon, but you really can’t go wrong.
There’s no seating—order at the counter and take it to go. I usually walk a block or two to the beach park and eat there, which makes it even better. It’s great for kids, reasonably priced, and surprisingly filling for the quality.
The owner is a gem, the staff is always kind, and service is quick even when there’s a line. A true Santa Monica staple and absolutely worth trying.“

“I’ve tried boba all over the world, and nothingabsolutely nothingcomes close to this place in LA The texture of the pearls is perfectly balanced, soft yet satisfyingly chewy, and the tea itself tastes incredibly fresh and rich, not overly sweet or artificial like most spots. Every sip feels crafted, not just made
This isn’t just boba, it’s an experience. You can tell they care about quality in every detail, from the ingredients to the presentation. If you think you’ve had good boba before, come here and prepare to have your standards completely reset

Hands down, the best boba in the world. No debate.“

“The slushies are good & refreshing and the Taiyaki are hot off the press and yummy!!! 😋😋😋“

“We had time to kill so we stopped here for a couple of boba tea drinks. It wasn’t crowded so we got our drinks and found a table. Many customers ordered “to-go” drinks so we didn’t feel pressured to vacate our seats. There are street parking (metered) nearby. I would definitely return to this tea joint next time I am in the area.“

“I love this place, because their drinks taste so good and I would buy again“
