“I love Pine & Crane! Seriously amazing Taiwanese food. The restaurant is stylish, modern and clean while the food is very authentic and completely delicious. My kids were surprised at how tasty everything was. Healthy too! We will def be back often!!!! If they have it, the lotus root salad is a must! 3 cup chicken is amazing, wontons, etc… I want to try the wood ear mushrooms next!!!“
“Ramen so good I forgot to take pictures! We found this little gem while staying at an AirBNB in Studio City. The menu was varied and we found something for everyone in our party, including the picky little guy. This was honestly some of the best ramen we've had anywhere (we were on vacation) and I have recommended it to others traveling to area. The service was super friendly as well.“
“If you're around the area I would suggest visiting this cafe! They have fantastic service and their drinks are always top notch and literally made with love. I usually get their matcha latte or their seasonal drinks if it catches my eyes. Btw their cream topper is always so AMAZING, could literally drink it everyday haha They even sell flowers/plants! It's pretty unique since you can't really find cafes that sells them and they are all so pretty. Plus this cafe has their own merch too. Once I saw their pink tumbler I couldn't help but had to bought it ASAP, such a cute tumbler(The color was to die for)! The baristas are so welcoming and would love to chat with you, they will literally start off your day perfectly :) Also, the parking is pretty small so if you can't find parking I suggest to park in the neighborhood, it'll be a nice short walk :D“
“Pretty good boba. I got the milk tea. It's wayyyyy too sweet so ask for less sweetness. That's the mistake I made. I got the milk tea boba with oatmilk. Service was good and it's cute inside. People were in there studying. Nothing special. I probably wouldn't come back. Meter parking in the area.“
“Good, strong, sweet milk teas. They have taiyaki and coin bread with different fillings (just like the taiyaki). Both the Sound and jasmine milk teas were strong, and the boba were plentiful. Service was pleasant and quick.Parking: Small strip mall parking lot.“
“Delicious So many options about amount of ice and sugar and extra like popping boba, lychee jelly, taro, red beans….. so many flavors Milk teas Fruit teas Slurpies Caffeine free drinks Food It’s so good that you would want one each day of the week Make sure you get 2 on Sunday since Monday is closed“
“This was the first time ordering from this location and it is actually pretty good. I got the Thai tea with brown sugar boba with the Ube Bubble Waffle and it was soft, chewy, and not overly sweet. I can't wait to bring my boyfriend and mom here to try it out. The drink was the perfect amount of sweetness, it was not headache inducing, and it wasn't bitter. The boba was soft and chewy as well.“
“I randomly stopped by this boba tea shop and I'm so glad I did because their drinks are so good. I ordered the Mango Sunshine and Orange Cloud and they are both equally so good and refreshing. The Mango Sunshine is creamy and has the tang from the mango with chewy mango jelly while the Orange Cloud tastes like an orange creamsicle!“
“This little cafe is absolutely a hidden gem. Found this place on accident on an outing but stayed because the food and hot drinks smelled amazing. The vibes here were serene, peaceful. The views were breathtaking and the service felt like I was at a family's house since they were very attentive. Super welcoming. The food was all reasonably priced and very filling. Already excited to return!“
“What a delightful bakery and coffee shop! I stumbled upon this gem looking around Chinatown for some boba. Their drinks are on the steeper side but they are so good!! Even the cups are cute. I saved my cup after the boba cause the quality of it is so well made that I have to use it again. For 2 milk tea bobas it was $11.They specialize in custom cakes and had a few on display that were mind blowing. The Hello Kitty goth cake was next level.You can find baked treats, custards, mini cakes, and snow ice here ☺️?There’s some seating inside and along the window a few tables and chairs. It’s a delightful spot to look out and gaze at busy Chinatown.Parking is available along the streets in metered spots.Everyone working there was super nice and the service was fast despite the line.“
“Too cute to handle! Not only from aesthetic to display and drink quality!Hidden gem coffee spot in Beverly Hills that offers boba, coffee, ice cream and sweet tooth!Loved the marshmallow Matcha! Definitely recommended and will be back!In & outdoor seating! (3 high tables, counters, 3-4 outdoor tables)Meter parking!“
“I came here recently on a weekend, and there was a small group of people waiting outside for their orders. It took about 20 minutes but so worth it. We got the beef and chicken curry omusibi. They are filling & well worth the price of $4.95 each. The seaweed is perfectly salted and slightly crispy and they didn't skimp on the meat which I appreciated.“
“I used to love sunright! I used to get the grape frostie almost every day! They even had a buy one get one free grape frostie for a month before they discontinued it since it was a seasonal drink! I stopped going because their other drinks are not that great in my opinion. If I did want something similar to that, I will occasionally get the strawberry frostie. Their blueberry frostie and their grapefruit frosties were not it. All their new frosties r not it either... BRING BACK THE GRAPE“
“Bohemia is my go-to place for all things tea and coffee! Been coming here for years! The atmosphere is beautiful, the staff are super cool people and the tea menu is the most extensive I’ve ever seen. Everything I’ve tried here I’ve loved. Would definitely recommend checking it out!“
“The Sweet secret is the best crepe in Glendale hands down. Reasonably priced and the service is great. I appreciate that they don't skimp on the strawberries and ice cream. They always have fun music playing and parking tends to be easy!“
“jasmine is a seasoned bobarista for sure, you can tell she knows how to keep flavors balanced in harmony with the exact sweetness/ice levels you ask for! ! ! the owners really care about their customers, they even made sure to consider my opinions since they had time to ask about my meal :D overall, Honey Krush is super chill and clean but still very cute--very K-cafe vibes, I'll be doing work here from time to time :3“
“Wow this place is amazing, all organic coffee and yummy fresh food all made in house! I visit many coffee shops, and the prices here are so fair considering its all organic too ! I am so surprised to see some reviews saying its expensive, if you have gone to other independent coffee shops they are priced the same , but the coffee in other places is not organic.Also there is Wifi and plenty of seating!!!“
“It’s been years since i last stopped by before I moved to Chicago. Can’t leave without having my boba. I grew up in the K-Town District. You don’t always have a chance to come back home to visit.Kid-friendliness: You can get your kid ice cream, Oreo boba.“
“My matcha latte taste super good. I hope they stay the same over time. hopefully they don't downgrade in a long run like the other boba and tea place it was good in the beginning. Service was good Ambiance: since they're just started i know one day they will the settings and the decorations“
“The reviews are not wrong. For a nice break from the Walk of Fame this place is perfect! Had a poke bowl and a green jasmine iced tea w/ mango and they were delicious and hit the spot! The host at the counter was nice too and the music is relaxing.“
“The best Poke I’ve ever had and the drinks served with were amazing! The staff are friendly and so sweet! I definitely recommend this spot, it’s cute and offers such a variety of options for drinks and the food options are all delicious!!“
“Beautiful stuff here. Staff did do great with their service and attention to detail. Really poured a beautiful matcha tea plus went nicely on the light boba. Flavors were great! I think the matcha quality isn't the best which doesn't make it a 5* drink but the baristas still did great.“
“Chicken katsu was great, big portion, tender chicken, came with a pretty and delicious salad and the curry was also very good. It was totally worth the price. Takoyaki was one of the best I've eaten. The portion is also generous and there were definitely big chunks of Tako inside the balls. Presentation was very pretty too. However my lemon roll was not as good as the other dishes. The spicy tuna was overly spicy and it took away the flavor of the entire dish. The size surprised me positively though, it was much bigger than rolls in other places. The fish was fresh and the proportion with rice was good too. I would definitely come back.“
“I have been on the hunt for good/decent boba in Burbank. I think this place is it. They have tacos, croissant sandwiches, bowls, ice cream and boba drinks. The best part is that everyday from 5p-8p drinks are buy one get one half off. That is a deal!!I had the blended tiger milk tea and the blended Thai tea. Both were good. The tiger milk tea was creamy enough so I enjoyed that a lot. The Thai tea wasn't too bad either. I will be back to try their other drinks on the menu.“
“Ding Tea's success lies on their ability to consistently deliver tasty boba treats across space and time. It's my first time at this location in Van Nuys, and the Hakkaido oolong milk tea was scrumptious as the ones I had at all the other branches. Staff was young but friendly, but that's not unusual at a boba place. We got our drinks fairly quickly. Conveniently located right next to a 99 Ranch Market and a pho restaurant, this location enjoys plenty of foot traffic. The parking lot is large, but it's still a struggle to find a spot due to the busy Asian market.“
“A cute little boba shop right by Pershing square. I ordered the Hong Kong milk tea with boba, a quarter sweet. The drink is caffeinated, so beware. I would have gotten it half sweet because I personally don’t like my boba drinks overpoweringly sweet. The drink was delicious overall and will definitely be coming back to try their other drinks on the menu.“
“I love this little boba spot! They have an extensive menu with something for everyone. Crepes, smoothies, boba, acai bowls, and more. I come here for their Thai tea because it is absolutely delicious. For those avoiding dairy they offer soy, almond, and oat milk alternatives. Service is always fast. Cute little interior and exterior, I've never had issues finding parking in their small lot.“
“First time here ever. Experience was overall great. The owner was super friendly, spoke to us and we had a friendly conversation a little about the history of the family owned company business. It was very easy to order. The gentleman was so nice to even give us a sample so quickly to try. Tried the ube brûlée. IT WAS DELICIOUS. It was so good I immediately ordered it. The owner was so nice to accommodate some special requests and addressed our concerns immediately. Nice and friendly staff, smiling owner happy and excited to talk to us. We are not just a number and we can tell he truly cares and passionate about his business, his product, and customers. Will definitely be back. The price point was reasonable. The place was quite small, and busy that weekend with little room and space inside--but busy is good for the business which means a lot of foot traffic. You can place your order on the kiosks for faster service.“
“Visited for the first time today and I was so impressed. Staff was hella nice. Drinks were delicious. Place was chill. I got the black sesame milk tea per staff rec. BOMB! Big thanks to him for being patient and introducing me to something new! Perhaps a new fav. Really appreciated the service and quality. We got 4 drinks for $21, which I felt was reasonable. Will def be back.“
“I didn’t expected that much for boba tea, I thought boba is boba all are the same but this place is different. For my daughter’s friends gathering I ordered quite a lot for all last weekend from bobarita and I’ve gotten so many compliments. Here’s boba tee is special!“
“I am so sad that I never got to taste the tea. I Ordered a whole bunch of different drinks for work for delivery and they never made it to the location. The driver apparently couldn't find the clinic I was working at??!! Anyways, the pictures looked great, the ordering system was easy but maybe next time I'll go in person!“
“My sister and I are regulars here and we always leave happy! Their boba is soooo yummy! I've also had their Lychee flavored Jelly and Egg pudding too. And I just recently tried their Rainbow jelly and it was the perfect amount of sweetness! Everything is delicious :D“
“Cute place. Lovely staff. Neat atmosphere. When you walk in through the humble entryway, you're immediately greeted by a welcoming smile and a hello. We were asked if we wanted to dine or order takeout. Dining in offers you seating options up the stairs into the the room you can see to through the open wall at it's floor level. I found it quite enjoyable being able to see into the room above. Very cool style. You order, then you eat. You pay at the end. My friends and I were treated well and wished a happy holiday. So thoughtful!If you're looking for something new, try here!“
“A little cute boba pink spot in Hollywood for the boba fans. They have cute glass jars to purchase and it looks so cute on my drinks. Love it! These jars gonna go with me later.I ordered:1. Strawberry shortcake smoothie with chia seed2. Strawberry shortcake milk tea with white jelly3. Original milk tea with aloe vera4. Peach white milk tea“
“The shop is newly open. And I’d say that it’s not in that good a location?I ordered the champion milk tea with coconut boba. It’s too bad the shop doesn’t have standard brown sugar boba.This is the most expensive boba I ever had in town haha. But it’s worth a try. I like the salty cheese foam on top!“
“First time at this restaurant. Will be back!! The warm friendly greeting was welcoming and appreciated. I ordered the pork chop special. It was beyond delicious and plentiful. The flavors and dipping sauce was magical. Pork chops grilled to perfection. The casual atmosphere was intimate though spacious tables and a fun art wall as a focal point. It was a hot day so I was grateful for the ac keeping me cool while awaiting my food. Street parking is easy. Worth the stop if you enjoy tasty Vietnamese food prepared to perfection. Trust me! #happygirl“
“Believe me, four stars is really good praise for this area. There are not a lot of Boba places near USC and to be quite honest, because I'm from San Gabriel Valley, I wasn't expecting a lot from this place. I was pleasantly surprised that the tea quality was pretty good and I got the standard milk tea at 25% sweet.“
“This place is definitely worth the drive to Lincoln Heights. The food is reasonably priced, well seasoned, and nice portions. I've had the tofu bowl more times than I care to admit. Highly recommend. There is indoor and outdoor sitting available.“
“Okay, this place is legit. I read a few reviews, and thought I would try it since it was a couple blocks from my hotel. I tried a tuna salad sandwich, and it literally was as good as I've ever had. Glad I stopped by. (I ate my sandwich too fast to photograph it...)“
“The menu is fairly large for a boba spot (a bunch of food options!), so I was hopeful when coming in. However, I only ordered drinks - the galaxy & the Cambodian red lime. Just a disclaimer - I think someone would like these drinks but it's not for me. That being said, I think these are well crafted & made. The galaxy was the better of the 2. To me, it tasted quite medicinal at first because it had an artificial cherry flavor but it mellows out once you keep drinking. The Cambodian red lime had nutmeg (or cinnamon?) in it which I wasn't expecting in a tea drink. It was good, just not for me. I think this place is pretty good if you're in the area! I like that they're taking risks & making flavors that you can't find anywhere else. Their flavors are quite niche but I know someone will definitely find their signature drink here. I would come back to try something new!“
“The food was fast, fresh, and great quality. Not too greasy, but still very flavorful. The sandwich was delicious, and the chefs sauce was the cherry on top. Only tip would be don't get the box, just get the fries on the side and dip in any sandwich droppings. The fries stay crisp that way. The workers behind the counter were friendly and clearly had a great relationship with regular customers. They had great recommendations and I would definitely come again.“
“Update 2/8/24: Tried the Honey Green milk tea (5.25) this time with full honey and quarter ice and it was very good! It tastes much better than when they use regular sweetner in the milk tea. There is more of a tea taste but still a good amount of the sweetness from the honey. Very good! Would recommend! They also had a cute cup design for the dragon lunar new year.Got the sea salt green tea, jasmine milk tea, and brown sugar boba. They have online ordering or you can order in store on their kiosk. They don't accept orders at the counter or register. The store is very quiet and cute in Chinatown for siting with friends or doing some work.Drinks were ready quite fast and tasted pretty good. The tea is authetic tasting and sea foam was great. The sea foam drinks come with a cute design for free as well! Very nice! Most of the drink sizes are 32 oz and the cup is made of a nice quality and designed nice. It isn't like other boba places these days who are buying cheaper cups are feel super flimsy. This place overall has great drink options that are worth its price. Not mindblowing, but affordable drinks- much cheaper than some other places nowadays. This is what I prefer when I get drinks and not a milk tea costing over $6. I would definitely come back to try their other drinks.“
“The boba cup is pretty big, really good for $5 plus tax, the boba was a bit warm but so soft and chewy. Overall really good boba. My brother Got a matcha milk tea with boba literally the bomb babes . Also the inside is pretty chill, might get crowded during week days because of the near by school around school release time. A little to much ice for my taste but overall loved it !!“
“Came here on a cold and rainy day to try out their hot drinks, and I ended up ordering the warm Sweet Taro Sago latte, and it absolutely did not disappoint!I got it with soy milk (which they charge $0.75 extra if you want soy or oat milk) but this made it lighter and less creamy than their recommended whole milk. But still, the amount of fresh taro they put in, along with their sago was perfect and having adjusted the sweetness level to 70% was perfect so it wasn’t overwhelming. The drink also did not come out, steaming hot, and in fact, it was warm and ready to be enjoyed.Inside there was one working ordering station, but you can always order at the counter, and the staff was friendly. Credit Card is accepted in contactless way, and the drinks did not take too long to come out. Although I will say that it wasn’t so busy when I arrived.I loved that the inside was nice and warm. They had a few 4 seaters anda small 2 person table; and the tables were clean. They have a parking lot which is free for pick up of drinks and food, otherwise you could park on the street.Their restroom is a single private space booth any gender and it was clean.Overall - I’m definitely returning for their warm Sweet Taro Sago latte!“
“I ordered the miso ramen and I think they gave me the spicy one by accident. Or maybe the regular is spicy too? Regardless, I was not a fan of the broth. The toppings were good though and luckily were separated so I was able to stir fry the noodles. 3/5 maybe would try a different broth I got the rose green tea boba and it was very good. The boba was pretty solid (chewy lol) and the tea was also. Would get again. 4/5.“
“I just came here about an hour ago and got two drinks. A blended coffee boba and a blended honeydew boba for my friend. She recommended it to me since we both work in the area and wanted to meet up for some boba. SO BOMB...my friend inhaled it and I too kinda did...The guy was also very nice! Thanks!!“
“Located in the Ten Ren tea store in the Far East Plaza. The drinks scratch the boba itch on a hot day. The milk tea is solid. It isn't life-changing by any means, but I appreciate the service which is always fast, friendly, and efficient. I came a few months ago for a bake sale hosted to benefit the Chinatown Service Center--the FEP was a zoo with all of the bake sale goers and folks eating at Howlin' Rays, Lasita, and Amboy-- I admired how the one barista on duty was able to fulfill so many orders in such a short time.“
“Update: I have been coming back over and over again. I have filled up their stamp cards multiple times. My go-to order is the Blue Honey milk tea with egg pudding instead of boba pearls. I love how they have seasonal flavors. It's always fun to try their drinks.“
“My absolute GO TO for great Chinese Food!! This restaurant reminds of the great Chinese food we used to have growing up on the east coast!I always get the shrimp fried rice and the shrimp lo main. And they have great portion sizes. Even my parents eat from here when they visit from the east coast!!Thank you Emperor Express!!Brandon Larkins“
“It was quite a busy day when I walked into this place. There was a long line of customers, an order or two were waiting, and one of the people spilt their drink on the floor. A passing glance at the other side of the counter would show you why there was notable traffic. There would be another person helping her out, but there was mainly only one worker holding the front. I don't know her name, but she had a rose parade and stormtrooper pins on her apron - Gravity Falls too. She helped clean the spill for the customer before disappearing into the back to assist her manager. She rushed back to the front immediately to get drinks finished for the others before taking 3 more orders. All of this happened in the span of less than 5 minutes. A worker like that should not be taken for granted nor should she go unrewarded. She looked tired. Just one more thing: thanks for the sunset strawberry lemonade“
