Not sure what’s taking me so long to write a review for this place, but I’m a regular. This is the place i go a few times a week to get my boba fix. Their boba texture is just about right. You can customize your drink - no ice, less sugar,etc at no extra charge. It’s dangerous for my waistline but worth it. It’s a small shop and there’s not really an area to sit down to hang out. It’s more like an order and go kind place.

When the fruit tea sweetness hits it fking hits, but that's like 1 in 3-4

We ran into some issues ordering around 5:00 p.m. but staff took good care of us and we will certainly be returning. Thank you so much!!!!

DaYung is in the corner of a strip mall, and the parking is really tight. If you can't find any in the lot, you can try for free street parking. The inside is also tight, not much space to wait. There are a couple benches only, no tables.

I made a trip to five different boba shops on Convoy to rank their "boba milk tea". I tried to get the closest to black tea if they had more than one option. I chose 100% sweetness and no ice (to eliminate dilution). Here are my ratings:

1 Camellia: boba milk tea, regular milk $6.38
2 Chakaa: ruby milk tea w brown sugar boba, regular milk $5.75
3 Tan-Cha: celon milk tea w caramel boba, non-dairy milk $7.25
4 Yun Tea House: Monkey King w boba, lactose-free house milk $7.28
5 DaYung: boba milk tea, non-dairy creamer $5.88

[Caveat: I think DaYung made a mistake on the order because it had some ice in the drink when I picked it up. When I tasted it at home, it tasted watered down and completely bland, like there was no sugar. So I think instead of 100% sugar and 0% ice, they gave me 0% sugar and 100% ice.]

My friend called them to let them know of the mistake, and the manager offered to refund the money. That was incredibly nice of them to do so.

In terms of the actual boba balls, DaYung's ranked #4. It was too mushy. There was no chewiness. That's too bad because I remember liking their boba.

They still have week day promos. The current one for every day is anything strawberry.

Amazing GuanYin tea!

The GuanYin Latte has a nice tea flavor. I got it with 30% sugar and less ice. Boba texture not too soft or too hard. Next time I will try it with the milk foam. Cute decorations inside, but it's more a place to pick up good boba rather than sit down. There's a bench for waiting.

Heard that this place has great options of fruity tea and that’s true. We ordered the Dragonfruit Beauty drink and it’s so refreshing!! It’s not overly sweet, smells very floral, and tastes slightly grassy from the jelly (which I don’t mind). The cashier/staff was really sweet too. We will come back again ❤️

Parking is really tough in the plaza. The teas are definitely more expensive than average, but the teas are pretty good.
