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

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

“Sunright Tea is super easy to order from, and I love how customizable the drinks are. But the overall experience could be better. There’s no restroom for customers, no tables or chairs to sit and enjoy your drink, and they even got rid of the Mochi Matcha Frostie with red bean, which was one of my favorites. The drinks are good, but I wish they offered a more comfortable space for customers to enjoy them.“

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

“My son and I love boba. I believe there are 3 boba shops in century city mall. We chose this one bc it had the best reviews and I found it first. It was really good and had a LOT of boba in it, which I appreciated bc so many places skimp on the boba these days. They were the perfect consistency and sweetness. Would def order from here again!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Great tea place in Chinatown that serves a wide variety of drinks. The workers are super friendly, and the teas are wonderful and have the right balance of fruit and the tea base.

I had the guava iced tea and would definitely recommend it! The teas are pretty sweet already, so no need to add boba to make it sweeter.“

“I was craving for a dessert after dinner and saw this tiny shop on my way. The cafe was very small with only few tight tables inside. I ordered via the tablet but they were ran out of boba.

Taro matcha latte: it had good taro flavor but the matcha flavor was weak. I asked for less sweet but it was still too sweet for me (tasted like normal sweetness).“

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

“Food is great!Today’s visit: Dining and kitchen spaces are clean.And the best part for me is…the customer service is excellent. I am specifically referring to Angelica and Kuya Ronald. They’ve been consistent in providing thier best service even then when they were in Beverly Blvd. location.“

“Best Mango Green Tea in SoCal 🤓“

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

“I had seen the rave reviews on social media so I went into this place a bit of a skeptic. However, I’m happy to say that this place surpassed my expectations. The tea is so strong and fragrant. I had a Yuzu Osmanthus less sweet and it was best version of an Osmanthus drink I’ve had.“

“The drinks were very good healthy choice“

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

“Small & assuming with normal bubble tea offerings and some unique takes. I tried the Burn Burn Pineapple, 50% sweetness. Very tasty!“

“Would come here before for their Caramel Frapp, which let me tell you is amazing! I noticed that they had a new menu...SUSHI...so I decided to try a Poke bowl. Let me just say it was the best decision of my life. It was EXQUISITE! Everything looks and taste super fresh. If you love sushi or poke bowls...then don't waste any time and come here you won't regret it! The staff is also amazing!

Portions are amazing! Wouldn't change a thing...“

“My go-to places
The balance of the tea pairs exceptionally well with the coffee, fruit pieces, and cheese foam.
The owner is always friendly and makes the drinks quickly.
Valet and coins Street Parking/ no restroom inside“

“Great bubble tea and interesting flavor combinations!“

“This is the best matcha in LA. I get a dirty matcha with oat milk and their homemade lavender syrup and it’s insane. They use ceremonial matcha too! The texture of the drink so so silky and amazing. A must try. Not expensive at all and you can get stamps to work towards a free drink! ?

It’s also a dream if a vibe in there.“

“Occupying the ex-space of Yi-Fang, another boba place in Sawtelle! Yesss you heard me right, feeling like you won't have enough fingers anymore to count them especially if you include those now gone. Pretty nice to have more options amidst the already long list, so no complaint.

There's little line when we arrived, but we got the orders swift enough. Super helpful as they had self-order counter along with the regular one.

First drink for the day was Wintermelon Tea, which was always my to-go whenever available. It's nice that they could do sugar customization for this, as in most places I couldn't do it for tjis drink. I went for 70% and was impressed with its nice balance between the wintermelon flavor and the tea taste.

Our second was from the milk-based one, their Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea, which was also pretty nice with bold tea, though bit too sweet for 50% sugar IMHO; even kinda odd as it's sweeter vs first one despite being at 50%. We added aloe vera topping, which tasted decent enough and was generously given.

Fun fact, they provided option to go for mini cup with any regular one purchased, but only limited to flavor of the day. Pretty nice way to enable people trying new stuffs.“

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

“This place is always super clean, drink done magnificently, and with so much attention to detail. The employees are always super accommodating and welcoming. The two guys who made my order did an amazing job, Christopher and Kyle. Would always recommend this location over others.“

“Lovely experience at this bubble tea place last night, the staff was super helpful and so kind, they all saved my life giving me the wifi to get an uber after getting abandoned by a guy in the middle of the road. I feel very grateful guys for you all, I want to thank you with all my heart and the bubble tea was very nice, cheers <3
Thank you again you are the best!!
Take care and regards,
Sara Di Lelio“

“Best fruit healthy tea !!!“

“As with many other bubble tea shops, you'll find all kinds of different teas and coffees at Teaspoon Sawtelle.

We kept it simple and ordered the lychee black tea and house milk tea. Both were good and not overly sweet or bitter.

The staff was friendly, the shop was clean and prices were fair. If you need a boba fix, this place will do.“

“Great food. Clean area to sit down and eat. Have a variety of drink selections from tea, milk tea, and slushie, and they also serve food too. I ordered the Popcorn chicken meal, which also comes with a free drink (selections are thai tea, boba milk tea, or green tea).
Would recommend coming here when you're hungry and thirsty for a drink.“

“Everything about this place. The owner is THE SWEETEST and was dancing when we walked in and offered us some lolipops. The interior is so fun and vibrant and inviting and the boba was out of this world we actually ended up ordering more on Uber eats later. 10000/10 recommend and their signature boba.“

“I got a half watermelon and half passion fruit slushie with mango jelly. It was absolutely delicious 😋“

“travelled from Singapore to LA for a few months and my asian tastebuds were craving a good ol' milk tea, i chanced upon tan-cha while i was in ktown. only downside is the parking- there were no available lots nearby so we had to park somewhere and walk about 10-ish mins.

i love the aesthetic of the shop, it was extremely clean and cozy! we were the only ones there so we got our drinks really fast. i ordered the milk tea creamio and it was pretty good. i would def go there again to try out other drinks!! :)“

“I came to this store for the first time and wasn’t sure what to order. Janelle was incredibly friendly and patient, she kept asking about my preferences and recommended drinks that suited me perfectly. She had a big smile the whole time and such great energy that I felt truly welcomed and respected while ordering and enjoying my drink (thank you again Janelle🥰). My experience here was amazing, and I wish every restaurant had service as warm and attentive as hers!“

“Very good place. Great people are working there. Very friendly. Explaining well about their drinks and how they make. Drinks are very tasty. They prepare pudding by themselves and herb jelly. So i recommend to add them to your drinks. They are super delicious and natural than other toppings which they have. I really like Thai peel milk tea and matcha smoothie. The greatest thing about this brand is that they use dairy free substitution from Taiwan instead of milk and it taste like milk. Very recommended.“

“Wow the kumquat slushy was delicious. Especially on a hot summer day (-:“

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

“Very creative with various flavor of their boba. Love their drinks.“

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

“My favorite boba tea place that I have been coming to for years. Worth the drive into DTLA! Tried the air pancakes for the first time and I will have to get them every time I go now. Service was friendly and fast.



Parking: Parking garage can fill up but there are several other paid lots near by at the little Tokyo mall“

“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!“

“Great place for a sweet pick me up! The food and drinks have the right amount of sweetness. The passion fruit tea is refreshing the brown sugar ice cream is creamy and toasty sweet. The pepper pesto (lots of pine nuts) waffle has a savory/sweet balance.

I would Definitely grab something if I’m in the area.

Parking garage is right next door. Parking on Western is rough so the garage is user friendly.

They kind of seem understaffed for the high foot traffic in the area.

Wait time is 10+ min

The ambiance: youthful, bright and cafe lounge.“

“Lovely surprise on a Sunday afternoon. As if the drinks and cozy atmosphere wasn’t enough to keep you coming back, they added cuddle puppies to the equation 🥰🥰🥰🥰“
