Mr. Sun Tea Palo Alto Reviews
Even just the appearance of Mr. Sun Tea was unappealing, but I'd never been to Mr. Sun Tea, so I had to give it a chance. I walked up to the self-serve tablet, skimmed the menu a bit, and then chose a drink. But after choosing all of the required customization options, no matter what I did, the app would not let me add the drink to the cart. I tried other drinks in case what I wanted was simply out of stock, but every other drink I tried to select would not be added to the cart....read full review
owner is super friendly, and their menu is quite unique compared to most boba shops!
me and my cousin were talking and didn’t see him handing us the receipt but he was so nice and just stood there and smiled and waited 🥹

Mr. Sun Tea Palo Alto offers a unique and enjoyable dining experience. The restaurant has a calm and spacious atmosphere, with seating available for customers. The drinks are a highlight, with a focus on handcrafted boba in various flavors. The boba is chewy and unique, with some flavors offering a softer and more flat shape. The tea drinks are creamy and flavorful, with options such as the Mr. Sun Special, Jasmine Green Milk Tea, and Taro Fresh Milk. The Mr. Sun Special features a signature drink with a unique flavor profile, while the Jasmine Green Milk Tea is a solid choice, especially at 50% sweetness. The Taro Fresh Milk is creamy and nutty, with a high-quality taro flavor and real taro pieces. Customers have noted that the boba is tasty and handmade with healthy ingredients, and the drinks are enjoyable. The owner is passionate about unique clean ingredient drinks and boba, and customers have noted excellent service and incredible boba.
However, some find the ordering experience challenging, as it involves inputting orders on an iPad, which still asks for tips. Some customers have noted that the app would not let them add drinks to the cart, and that online orders may be out of stock. There is a $1.25 up-charge for no ice, and a mandatory phone number entry that leads to marketing texts. Additionally, a small fee is automatically added for a to-go bag. Despite these inconveniences, the friendly staff and clear communication are appreciated, and the availability of bathrooms is seen as a positive. Overall, with options for online ordering and kiosk service, Mr. Sun Tea Palo Alto remains a good spot for those seeking a unique and tasty tea experience.
