“I can't believe Montebello has a Lollicup Fresh AND it has normal milk tea prices in the mall!!!
The drinks are good, like other Lollicup locations.
Shared seating with other food court businesses.
Average seating comfort.
A lot of seats/tables available.
High chairs available.
Highly recommend trying this place if you want to know what milk tea tastes like. This is one of the original milk tea companies to enter and then dominate the USA market.“

“For many years, I had been passing by this place at the mall, and somehow always found myself on a diet or something. I never remembered Montebello Town Center offering such a fancy drink place!
Well, finally yesterday was the day to buy their Fruity Pebbles milkshake!
It tasted very sweet, too much even for me, but hit the spot for dessert. I paired it with a Wetzel's Pretzel; they're located pretty much right next to this business.
I would only come back to try something else, and if I were in the area!“
“Doesn't look much but you going to love it. I'm trying to eat healthy and once in awhile I treat myself when I come by here. it's not close by but I willing to drive over here. My dirty little secret is the snow horchata or the snow banana (No Boba) I took a couple of my dates here just for a drink to go. the expression of their face. well you know. I don't need to tell you the whole story. But one thing is for sure on the way back or from are date they love the drinks. sorry back to the reviews. plenty of parking but it's best to park away from the Little Caesars. they sometimes double Park. it's not bad. But it happened to me once or twice no big deal they move as they see my car start. friendly employees oops sorry friendly family. They accept credit cards ($5.00 and Up)“
“We stopped by Hai Cha for boba tea after visiting the museum. The owner greeted us right away as we walked through the door. He's super friendly and he was very welcoming. We got Hai Cha special milk tea with boba. Waffle was boba. Yogurt smoothie and mango smoothie. The size of the smoothies were huge. We enjoyed our food.“
“LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. Their Matcha is something I have a craving for almost every week! Mom also loved it and my sis showed me this place. 10/10 the owner is the kindest and works very hard. (Did I mention they have a massage chair for waiting)“
“Surprisingly spacious inside! They do have a rear lot, but street parking is probably your best bet. It’s definitely more of a social hangout than a quiet study spot, but the layout works well. Despite the crowd, service was efficient, I had my two drinks in less than 10 minutes. The peach oolong was a pleasant surprise and better than expected.“
“A decent boba spot in Pasadena. I always wished they had more toppings. But all their drinks are good and consistent. They have a really small parking lot with Afters IceCream. But there’s plenty of street parking all around. I usually get their fresh jaded green mountain tea with black and white boba. I like almost all their drinks and the aesthetic vibes of the cafe. But I wish there was a restroom and more space area to sit and enjoy the tea there.“

“The staff was really rude, it was a guy in the back just ignoring the fact I had just got there to order... and didn't even greet or anything just stared and continued to do whatever he was doing.. wait for about 20mins before leaving.. I even had eye contact with him😒😒“

“The drinks are real tasty and the boba is freshly made not like other boba locations where it tastes weird with a weird texture. I got the tiger sugar milk tea and peach mango drink both with boba and they taste amazing!! The worker here is very nice and greets you with a smile. She’s like a nice mom or grandma:)“

“After I was introduced to this boba store, no exaggeration, as people around me and store workers would know, I have been coming almost every day. I get the fruit tea (large) which is only $4. It’s so rare—I haven’t seen another store—that is as affordable and whose drink quality is still high. It feels like every coffee shop or boba shop is selling drinks for $7-10. Their drink is really good. I get 0 ice 0 sugar and it still tastes good (you know a tea place isn’t good if you get 0 sugar and then it tastes bitter/bad). Also with the 0 ice, I like that they aren’t just replacing the ice with water, but chilling more tea to top it off. They have internet, parking in back, and tables to study/do work.“

“Best Honey Green tea in all Southern CA. Actually, better than the ones in Taiwan. They spare no cost in using only the best quality tea and ingredients. Once you tried theirs, you can’t go to other places anymore. Many of their bread like the red bean bun is a must try and the birthday cakes are always freshly made daily and not too sweet. They also have full sheet part tray fruit cake that are cut into 96 slices, best for large parties or events. Highly underrated and a hidden gem!“
“New Place, not bad! Staff was helpful with good suggestions. When I got here, it wasn't super busy. Somehow, I'm normally the quiet one, but here, as low volume as my friend and I were talking, we still managed to be the loudest ones here. If you need to work or study, this isn't a bad option.“

“I had a Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea with no ice and level 1 (of 5) sweetness. I really enjoy freshly brewed milk tea (freshly brewed after order is placed) compared to milk tea prepared with tea that was brewed well in advance, had been sitting on the shelf for who knows how long, and used only after the order is placed. I definitely recommend to try their boba tea.“

“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...“

“Love the 開心果米麻糬,木薯粒&桃膠!I’d say I’ve tried most of the popular boba shops in SGV (ici/3CAT/motto/molly tea/cha redefine) and I can say this place’s the toppings is my current favorite. They are not too sweet or creamy and is hand made. This is def my new go to place for chewy and fresh toppings!!!“

“I’ve been here a couple times and Jason is a real stand up guy who is very friendly and courteous. His shop is clean and he’s got tons of choices! It takes awhile just to figure out what you want out of all the choices. The location is in a shopping center I go to for other things so it is in a convenient location for me. Will keep coming!“

“El Monte doesn’t have too many good boba spots, but Ono Tea House is a decent option. Prices here are a little lower than most places, which is nice.
The tea itself is just okay — not super strong — and the drinks can lean on the sweeter side. I usually order mine with 1/4 sugar since I don’t like them too sweet.
Overall, it’s not a spot I’d go out of my way for, but if you’re in El Monte and really craving boba, it does the job.“

“You can’t beat the price! Affordable and pretty good quality for the price you pay.
Favorite- passion fruit green tea with tea jelly and most of their fruit teas cost under 5$.
You can add a few toppings for free which includes- tea jelly, coffee jelly, boba pearls and pudding. Very popular so be prepared to wait in a line to place an order but the service otherwise quick.“

“Great boba! I ordered the Brown Sugar Matcha and one of their signatures, the Hokkaido Milk Tea... The matcha was delicious and the brown sugar was a nice subtle twist! The hokkaido milk tea was a bit sweet for me but otherwise very enjoyable. In the end, I think the matcha was my favorite“

“Literally the best boba I have ever had in a long while. The ingredients never hurt my stomach and the boba is never hard, always perfect. The matcha is a must have. The downsides are that this place is near a HS and they close pretty early.“

“Not sure if that was a tea place for me. Firstly, it was really sweet. Even though you can choose your own preference of sweetness ( I chose 50%) my tea tasted overly sweet. I got the fruit tea. A different and distinct flavor from other fruit teas I’ve had. Both drinks tasted heavy on sweetness despite the level being 50% and other 25% . However, I would give this place another try since the flavors were distinct and the place was neat and clean.
It is a self serve and not to hang out tea place. So just order and go.“

“Recommended to us by a local restaurant owner, we took a drive over to try them out. They have an amazing fresh fruit selection (including persimmon, which I hadn’t seen before) like strawberry and watermelon (which is one of my favorites).
We like them so much we’ve made the 20 minute drive several times already during our short stay. The drinks seem to run a little sweet so I make the less sugar option. They seem to automatically add a jelly to the drink (at least the several we’ve ordered).
Overall this place is great and highly recommended“

“South El Monte has some of the best boba in the world. South El Monte is also home to a lot of Taiwanese boba supplies companies and import so that makes people who start boba shop businesses in the South El Monte an easy access to the materials and that makes it all thrive. When I am not getting the 7Leaves down the street in South El Monte, I would come here to study Mandarin or work on software engineering projects remotely. I think South El Monte has a thriving community of Asian and boba drink lovers. Hello Boba adds another great addition to that one. Another great option is Boba Time which is also right down the same street. I love to get boba and then head to the King Taco place and drink boba with my taco.“
“Not really a Boba fanatic but came here with some friends and had some refreshing and ultra delicious Taro Tea with Boba. It was so chilled and yummy that I will definitely come back as well as on Tuesdays as they have some size-up deal. They make their own Boba! Quality and taste is tops🏅🏅🏅“
