My partner and I genuinely get Bopomofo minimum once a week ever since we first tried it. The bala matcha (guava matcha latte) is one of my fav drinks in existence. I really appreciate that they don’t charge extra for oat milk. Also love that they offer vegan food options - the vegetarian (it’s also vegan) popcorn chicken is super good. I hope they add a vegan sauce besides ketchup in the future. Orders can take some time to come out, but ordering online ahead of time always work best for me.
Their customer service is also 10/10. I ordered online from the Artesia location by mistake a few weeks ago. The manager on shift, Suh, promptly connected with the Artesia location to organize a refund for me. They also provided me with their direct contact info in case I had any issues with receiving the refund. I really appreciate the SD staff for still fulfilling my order 10min before close. Thank you to the closing staff on shift on 10/16/2024 :)

We’ve been here 3x in a span of two weeks. Their drinks are better than their food.
Strawberry corn milk (1/5):I thought it would taste like Vietnamese corn milk but the corn was really concentrated strong like sweet corn from a can.
strawberry basil ginger lemonade (3/5): lots of ginger and a bit syrupy
hoji-corn latte (5/5): Has more of the corn milk taste from the Hojicha. Almost like horchata mixed with chocolate milk.
orange wangi (4/5): Tasted like orange dream and orange Julius.
LA autumn (1/5): has yuzu, peach and tea that was all syrup. It was nasty and thick. Described as the perfect summer and fall blend.
Pork belly rice bowl (3/5): nothing special with tiny bits of pork belly. The box was a half order size.
Spicy popcorn chicken (2/5): big dry pieces, the skin was not crispy, wasn‘t spicy, seems like they dumped a ton of paprika.
I would only return for their drinks. They ran out of anything with sesame which I wanted to compare it to Sunmerry drink. Gotta try their matcha next time too. 4 stars for drink options.

Got a jasmine green milk tea and ba-la matcha. The jasmine was okay and just tasted like watery milk. The boba was not very soft but sweet. The ba la matcha was interesting but wasn’t notable. Overall the drinks weren’t anything exceptional.

Good staff, friendly. Quite a bit of parking which was great. Recommend the shrimp burger and fried chicken sandwich. Mapo tots great as well. Prices are a bit premium but otherwise worth a try!

I probably been to this place already 6 to 8 times. I’m just obsessed with their drinks. I saw the owner phil three times. He’s very friendly and is on the floor working hard. You can tell he cares about his crafts. I’m very impressed with the ingredients that they use. I don’t feel bad when I eat there or drink their drinks.
The Bo-la Matcha is legit. The guy on the counter is super friendly as well. Overall great place with excellent food. Downsides are that it is a bit pricey and not all seats are comfy.

Company apparently withholds tips from employees. Go to camelia.

Very authentic place between Japanese and Taiwanese culture and cuisine! The place is clean and designed to have plenty of sunlight, suitable for studying and working during the day! Drinks and snakes are reasonably priced to get you thru your study or hangout!

Food takes great and the people working are great. The food takes way too long to come out. Even if you just get a drink, it'll be over 15 minutes.
