Innovative tea drinks with a twist. Got the creme brulee cloud with my roasted Oolong milk tea with brown sugar tapiochi, a cross between tapioca pearls and mochi. It's more tender than the Boba.

Terrible customer service here and didn't even bother to wait in line to get anything. Definitely just happened today, October 18, 2025.

Torotea is super popular and often requires signing up for a 40+ min waitlist, as crowds venture here to experience an off the charts “QQ.”
I think the wait is actually worth it. Here, conventional boba pearls are replaced by handcrafted tapioca cubes with the consistency of mochi. While the cubes are enough to be a dessert on their own, the famous Popcorn tea provides buttery, caramelized flavor notes reminiscent of kettle corn, complementing the tapiochi’s texture and subtle sweetness. Altogether, the effect was incredible..

This is a old review but I have severe IBS and I can't drink any caffeinated drinks. Yes it's rough but I'm happy that toro teas has some drinks that I love and was able to try them. My favorite is their cassia tea with the osmanthus jelly. The drink itself is super creamy and rich and it not too sweet . I highly recommended their jelly because it's the same texture in Taiwan where I would order boba. It's not jelly but more chewier and softer. Somehow every time I would get a stomach and turns out cassia has a natural laxative property. Maybe it's only me but their citrus soda is good too. The lines are packed!!! Beware ⚠️

Finally checked out Torotea—and it was worth it! We used the waitlist and got in pretty fast, even for a Sunday morning around 11:30. The shop is super cute and cozy, with some nice seating spots if you want to chill with a friend

There’s literally no point in making people wait outside when it’s nearly empty inside. Waitlist wait time is not accurate. If you get here on time, they make you wait. If you get here a little later, they refuse to let you in and make you rejoin the waitlist. There’s no winning. Drinks are not worth the wait.

Drinks are good, but good lord. It takes 30+ minutes to get your order. That doesn’t include waiting to order

The drinks were okay at best and not worth the wait. There is about a 40 minute wait list to get in and there is another 20 minute wait in store. Drinks were on the watery side and not worth it an hour.

Torotea is now my local favorite in Diamond Bar! I love that each drink is handcrafted from scratch daily and each time I’ve visited the quality has been consistent. I’ve enjoyed all the drinks I’ve tried so far. My current favorites include: Koan-Im Oolong Milk Tea w/Brown sugar tapiochi and vanilla cloud and Mulberry Oolong w/ Osmanthus Jelly.
I love the ambiance here at Torotea! The way everything is set up feels so aesthetic and appealing. For my order, I tried their popcorn milk tea with brown sugar tapioca mochi. it was pretty good! There’s a strong popcorn aroma when you sip it, but the milk tea itself isn’t as strong as I would prefer. The highlight of the drink, though, is definitely the brown sugar tapioca mochi! So soft and chewy :) I would love to comeback to try their other drinks as well.

Pretty high quality tea and handmade jelly.

Ordered ahead of time and paid on their website so that I can just pop in and grab my drinks. I do this when I'm with my toddlers and I'm picking up noodles next door. When I got there I saw that the employee was busy helping another customer so I decided to just grab my drinks bc they were just sitting there.
The employee freaked out and grabbed the drinks out of my hand. She told me she'd help me in a second. She was literally shaking and when she finally helped me she asked me what the order number was I had no idea and my phone was in the car with my kids. She refused to give me my drinks. I showed her my credit card which had my name which matched the name on the drinks. She still refused to give me the drinks and felt the need to call her manager to help with the situation.
The manager just simply looked at the name on the drinks and my credit card and just gave me my drinks. This is embarrassing and I would hate to have her as an employee. Not being able to problem solve on her own and feeling so stressed out you felt the need to call your manager. How embarassing.
When I got back into the car I looked at the order number and it was 10 digits. No way I would've remembered that and no customer should. If the order number is what you want to confirm for a pick up make it easy.
Anyways, still would probably come back because of the drinks but very interesting experience!

Highly recommend. The tapiochi toppings is way better than regular boba. This is not my regular go to tea spot.

One of my favorite boba spots in all of SoCal. They have a yelp waitlist (you need to get on the list before you can go inside to order) but if you go on a weekday afternoon, it’s possible there’s no wait (that’s what my sister and I did when we visited). They had the uva black tea samples to try and the tea was crisp and refreshing. The team members were helpful in providing suggestions. You can customize the sweetness amount as well as the ice level. So far, I’ve tried the popcorn milk tea, uva black tea, Kalamansi tea, and the jasmine oolong. They have jelly’s rather than traditional balls; all of them are perfectly chewy and tasty, so you really can’t go wrong. There’s limited seating inside so most people opted to-go. There is a free parking lot. Credit cards accepted.
sooooooo good！
