“Neighbors Tea House offers the most exception beverages and sweet treats, like their Smashed Avocado and Durian and soy pudding. I’m still making my way through their menu but there hasn’t been anything I’ve ordered that I didn’t wish I ordered a large of. Their team is exceptional, especially during COVID. You can order online to expedite your experience. Be sure to say hi to Hailey, the owner, who always comes up with these amazing beverages. Will definitely be back!“

“This is hands down one of the best Hunan (Xiang) restaurants in Los Angeles — a true hidden gem. I’ve been coming here for many years, and every time I bring friends, they all end up loving it too.
The flavors are super authentic and full of that classic Hunan spice. Their bullfrog dish is amazing, the stir-fried duck is so flavorful, and even simple dishes like tomato & egg are done perfectly and taste just like home.
If you’re looking for real, traditional Xiang cuisine in LA, this place is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommend!“
“Had a Taro Milk Tea. Satisfies a craving and not too bad for the price. Have been here years so familiar with the drinks and they won't be a must have. Just moreso convenient and accessible. Keep in mind they prefer cash, using credit requires a $.50 charge.
Parking: Small plaza. But decent amount of parking for a quick stop.“

“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.“
“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 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!“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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.“
“X Tea Cafe is definitely my favorite tea shop lately! The brown sugar boba milk tea is rich in tea flavor with just the right amount of sweetness, and the boba is perfectly chewy and soft — absolutely delicious. The shop is clean and bright with a cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and chat with friends. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone who loves high-quality tea drinks!“

“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.“

“Tried this place for the first time since I was in the area. Got a brown sugar milk tea with boba. The tea was good and not too sweet. Boba was nice and chewy. I like that I was able to order online and just pick it up. Would come back here again!“

“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“

“Tried Bobacraft Cafe for the first time today — came for the boba, ended up blown away by the food.
Got the Taiwanese popcorn chicken bento and tofu pudding dessert. The popcorn chicken was crispy, seasoned exactly the way it should be — you know the kind if you’ve had it from a night market stall. Not toned down, not over-sauced, just right. The tofu pudding was smooth and comforting in that quiet, classic way that’s hard to explain if you haven’t grown up with it.
Honestly didn’t expect the flavors to feel this close to what I remember from Taiwan. It’s the kind of food that makes you a little nostalgic without trying too hard.
The one thing that stood out to me was the interior visuals — they don’t quite match the personality of the food yet. The flavors have a real identity, a genuine Taiwanese street snack soul, but the posters and branding inside the shop haven’t caught up. I actually put together a few poster redesigns during my meal to share with them — felt like a small way to give back after food that good. Hope they find it useful.“

“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.“

“I have been trying various milk tea places in the area to find a place that would cater milk tea for my upcoming wedding. My wife could not have the wedding without having milk tea served to the guests. My wife and I tried the champ milk tea here and decided that this place was the one. Their portions are much larger than other shops, and the tea flavor is pronounced and not covered by sugar/milk. The manager, Ryan, was super helpful in preparing our bulk order for the wedding, and it was a major hit during our wedding. Definitely come here for their various milk tea flavors, and also highly recommend their Kumquat green tea! Thank you Tea Champ!“
“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🏅🏅🏅“

“This is one the best boba I’ve ever had, beating a lot of the bobas in Taiwan, including Xing Fu Tung in San Gabriel.
None of that plastic boba you’d get from other bobas in Pasadena or most socal boba places.
This is perfect chewy/softness/firmness. What a find.“

“Giving this a 5 star rating all around although the guy at the register wasn’t necessarily the friendliest however I can admit he seemed like a hard worker, he was at the register then the back making our order so it’s ok. Everyone there seemed to be having an amazing time hanging out. My husband and I were just in the area and decided to check out the nearest boba place and I’m glad we landed here (wink), hubby got a Thai tea, I know he’s so basic lol and I got the pink peach tea both with boba. I would definitely order my drink again, so delicious. We also got the honeydew yogurt squares and omggg I def recommend them I wish I would have gotten atleast another flavor to try.“

“This spot is a hidden gem fr. Every drink I’ve tried here has been on point—flavorful, not too sweet, and the boba is always fresh and chewy just how it should be. The workers are mad chill and super friendly, always make you feel welcome. Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time, they got you. Definitely one of my favorite go-to boba spots. Oh and the strawberry matcha definitely one of my favorites 10/10 recommend.“

“This place got some new drinks. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their new choco strawberry frosty and strawberry Hokkaido milk tea to try. The frosty had an icy, rich, deeply chocolatey base with a creamy, tangy, cheesey strawberry foam. Legit a desert drink. My fave was definitely the strawberry Hokkaido milk tea tho. Very floral, milky, and sweet, with plenty of jiggly strawberry jellies. Overall these were lowkey pretty good.
$7.25 frosty
$6.50 milk tea“

“There's no denying that boba flows through my veins and a place like Sunright only adds to the obsession. This location is tiny - very little parking is available on the streets and this being situated next to a high school means they get BUSY after school gets out. You have enough space to order either at the counter or on the kiosk, with the latter being preferred. On my recent visit, they ran out of boba on a Friday afternoon and I was gutted. I still went with another topping with my Oolong Milk Tea with Soy Milk, which was a solid substitute but not quite the same without my black pearls. Tea quality was fantastic and I enjoyed my drink. However, my friend ordered their Grapefruit Tea with Boba and omg... one of the best fruit teas that I've ever had from a boba shop. I immediately regretted relying on my milk tea to quench my thirst and should have gone the fruity route. I'm taking note for the next time I am in the area.“

“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.“
