Love this place for boba. It’s different (in a great way) in the sense that it has a Pacific Islander influence. The Tongan Mango Otai is my favorite. They have photos with the drink names if you need help envisioning what the drinks are. Great little spot with even better music always playing. Staff are always nice. There is a parking lot, but also plenty of street parking all the time.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp entrance.
The people are so sweet in this establishment! I got the Hawaiian Sunset and love the colors! I asked for 25% sweet and it was just right. Perfect place to get boba! Thank you!!!

ITS DISGUSTING. SAVE YOUR MONEY. Go literally anywhere else. I got the burnt brown sugar milk tea with boba and the drink itself was mid at best; it kind of gave me a stomachache. THE BOBA WAS HORRID. It wasn’t even tapioca I presume? That or it was extremely overcooked, hard, and difficult to chew. Absolutely disgusting, photo of the “boba” for reference it might be hard to tell the texture from the picture. It also barely came with any (in the picture I left the majority of what they gave), so even if it was actual tapioca, it didn’t have nothing.

1st time here after driving by at least 100 times. This is truly a gem in this neighborhood. The boba drinks and eggettes are legit. There is something about this place that makes it unique. The name is catchy too. Will be back.

Great and awesome Boba spot! I am so happy I was able to enjoy their drinks. I ordered a variety.Mango Otai - Fresh mango and coconut I mean come onnnnn!!!! The labor that goes into this drink! Very very refreshing and my family enjoyed it too!Tongan Taro - not too sweet and not over powered with Taro! Perfect and delicious ? Taro is my favorite !Matcha Green - made with perfection My #1️⃣ favorite Thai! Wasn't too strong or too sweet had the perfect mixture ❤️ I did order all without boba because I am not on this side often and wanted to store them for the following day ??!Amazing menu Great vibes shout out to the owners!!! Congratulations and keep rising ✨️ I absolutely love to see it! Thank you ??
Great boba shop, my first time there, love their burnt brown sugar milk tea. Staffs are amazing too. Will be back soon to try their mango and white rabbit drinks.Four stars because of limited parking and it's hard to find street parking around there, it's a busy street too.

I saw that this place had a white rabbit candy milktea and decided I had to stop by. Service was great. They overcharged me and refunded it immediately. I was disappointed by the white rabbit milk tea - I didn't really taste any white rabbit.

First time at Kiss My Boba was on the evening of Friday, September 29, 2023. I had been craving boba and since I was picking up food from Taqueria Mi Durango about a block away, I decided to finally check this place out since they have been on my radar for a while.I arrived shortly after 7:35 PM and immediately parked in the front spot in the lot. Yes, they do have their own parking lot - a very small one [for less than a dozen automobiles] which they also share with their neighbour, the now closed Famous Rib Shack (though, it appeared to be open on this night of my visit). The venue was brightly lit, so it was easy to see that the space was well kept and clean. It's a tiny spot for ordering to-go; no tables nor chairs for hanging around.I was debating over the MATCHA MILK TEA and the JASMINE MILK TEA. Johnny was at the register, taking orders, and Cam was making the drinks. They seemed to work very well together as a team. Both of them provided insight on the two drinks as well as the milk alternatives and I was pleasantly surprised that their opinions aligned with one another. They both advised that the two green teas were light in tea flavour and recommended the JASMINE MILK TEA over the MATCHA MILK TEA because the latter is weaker in tea taste. Cam said that they could adjust the Jasmine to a higher level for me, so I went with that. The guys were super friendly, accommodating (Not only did Cam up the Jasmine flavour for my drink, he also told me that I was ok to keep my car in the lot while I went to Mi Durango to pick up food), and had great positive energy that seemed to be contagious. Love their vibe!My JASMINE MILK TEA (oat milk) with CLASSIC BOBA & GRASS JELLY was yummy. I could tell that the grass jelly was straight from the can, cubed, instead of scooped like the softer versions that I have seen elsewhere. The topping floated at the top of my drink while the boba sank at the bottom. No biggie, but if I wanted a gulp with both boba and grass jelly, I had to maneuver my straw to the top to catch the jelly. The PUMPKIN SPICE HORCHATA MILK TEA (with GRASS JELLY) wasn't posted on the wall MENU, but I was able to order it for my husband since the ingredients were available. He said that, even with his low sense of taste due to recovering from Covid, the horchata flavour still came through.A great first impression Kiss My Boba left on me. I will likely return.

Milk tea boba mostly just tasted like milk. Boba was delicious and fresh.
They should consider changing the name of the Mangonada to Mangolada. I was expecting mango and lemonade (like mango+limonada) so I was quite surprised and disappointed to get the salty-spicy Tajin in my drink like a Michelada.

Came out to Vibes & Smiles in Daly City. I've been hyping Kiss My Boba to all my coworkers. I'm so happy they were able to one of the vendors for this event. Their team never disappoints! Great service and quick turnover on the orders. Hope to see them at more events.

I hope my cheap huspaneti tipped these kids! Grr, I forgot to ?? him. If I don't tell him to tip sometimes, he just WON'T. I believe in paying it fwd having wkd for tips for 11 years as a DJ. Next time, I will OVER tip to compensate and make up for my young husband's frugality. Someone has to budget. I earn. That's his job to pinch pennies NOT mine. LolThe otai they made is derived from the same family recipe we have had in OUR family from the Island of Tonga ??. They used fresh young ? instead of dried grated baking ? which I LOATHE in ALL things beverage or baked.I AM a coconut??? and very much resemble that remark, so trust me I KNOW what this recipe is supposed to taste like. ? my dad is also TOO CHEAP to use real coconut, so GOOD on ya kids for NOT going cheap. No tampico here! They spared no expense on the best freshest ingredients.Now, I know for sure I don't have to make a family punchbowl or 5 gallon bucket sized congregation amount for just 1 cup of this delicious BETTER than my dad's [Yeah, I just said that in writing to the world, DAD!] homemade otai.Only be better if they topped me off with fruit, but that's ok. Next taimi, I pay extra and tip big like I usually do when I hold the ?. They always remember my face and regular order at bars and restaurants for that very reason. I like big portions, great quality, and good value, and I'm not afraid to pay for it! [I DESPISE hagglers.]I don't believe in "family price" AKA "free." I am a firm believer that if you are good at something, that you should also get PAID commensurately! You go guys! Will hit up your location in Bootah next time we drive through on the Sturgess route. Cheeehoo!!! ? ??Way to be one of the 1st merchant class Tongans to ever not just open but SUCCEED at continuing your entrepreneurial pursuits and making it work!

Had a boba craving tonight. Decided to try Kiss My Boba. Ordered a watermelon, mango, lychee tea, and POG tea with boba. The watermelon and mango were really good. They were made with real fresh fruit and young coconut, and the boba was soft.Unfortunately, the lychee tea and POG tea tasted artificial and was way too sweet.I would come back again, but I would order the fresh fruit drinks instead of the sugary sweet teas.

Tongan Mango Otai order you will.
