Terrible boba it was slimy and drink was tasteless,probably should’ve asked for a reimbursement,
I’ve been coming regularly for years since this is the been boba I’ve found in San Diego county. But I had an experience that really makes this place worth of your time and money - I had a pretty last minute and slightly complicated order: I wanted jars of milk tea and boba sold separate so I could take it home and let my guests be able to kind of build their own drinks. It wasn’t an official cater order and I needed that evening, for about 15 drinks worth. They didn’t have extra tea on hand and many of the teas need proportioned syrups and sauce that can’t really be made at home without proper equipment. It had to go through Nick the manager, and after much coordination, he and the two guys working that evening were able to accommodate me, even giving me a discount and doing their best to compromise with my needs. I brought containers and they made some of their more simple teas but still delicious to put in them. They even gave me extra teas and helped me carry it all to my car. I really appreciated their kindness, patience, and hard work and will continue coming here for years to come!! All my guests loved the idea and the tea 😎🫶🏾
Rude and disrespectful customer service I dont recommend this place
Love the plants in the shop but also the tea is good! Honestly best in Santee and worth it if you're in lake Murray area. Lemon Kumquat is the most refreshing in this heat
Staffs are so friendly. Drinks are delicious. Atmosphere is so romantic and zen 💞
Great drinks!! Friendly service. My new boba place! Glad I discovered it!
Visited on a Thursday at 12:30 PM and had a disappointing experience. With three orders ahead, it took 31 minutes to receive two drinks. The employee managing the register and drink preparation was clearly working hard, but seemed overwhelmed. After 20 minutes, another staff member appeared but did not assist, instead observing and using their phone. No updates, explanations, or apologies were provided for the delay, which was frustrating as I had kids waiting. I sent a private message with this feedback five days ago and received no response. The drinks were excellent, but the long wait and lack of teamwork or communication make me hesitant to return. Additional staff during busy periods would greatly improve the experience.
Good service and good product.
We love Daboba. The staff is friendly and fast! Love every drink we have tried so far.
So far, so good. Had three different drinks to taste their selection. You have a lot of options for sugar content and other add ons

Boba was great . We love the drinks that keeps us coming back but the service from the blonde female worker at the register is very rude . She doesn’t greet, has a stank face when you ask anything, and barely acknowledges you . I know some people have bad days but we’ve gone a good amount of times and it’s the same service.
I never write bad reviews but the costumer service and the drinks here were terrible. I ordered the mango passionfruit green tea and my bf ordered the jasmine milk tea. My drink tasted like straight sugar with no flavoring and his tasted like plain milk. My bf didn’t ask to have his remade but I asked to try a different drink because i didn’t like the flavor of the one that was made and the manager said no??? A purely sugar drink with no flavor and they refused to make a different one. We paid $17 for our drinks. Absolutely terrible costumer service and drink making abilities
Best brown sugar milk tea in the area! I go here regularly.
First time here, and it was a great experience! Got my boba super fast, and it tasted really good. The staff was really friendly—one of them even checked in on us while walking by, which was nice. Plus, they have free WiFi and a great workspace, so it’s definitely a solid spot to get some work done or just chill!
Great boba! The boba pearls are cooked all the way.
Chill atmosphere with plenty of seating.
