“This is a really nice cafe in Downey. They have free wifi, many snacks and nice boba. The boba menu is great. The smoothie and fruit tea are nice too. I think the standard menu is a bit too sweet for me. The snacks are like frozen snacks and took out to fry. Staff was very nice. Clean restroom. Great vibes for working or chatting.“

“好喝！ 波霸粉圓新鮮！“

“Friday 3/28/25 Dinner at Fire Tiger Thai Food in Whittier with my friends Erwin and Victoria. Enjoying a wonderful dinner together after a hard day’s work. We ordered Shrimp pad Thai, fire tiger wings, seven sea soup, crying tiger, and mango sticky rice. The foods were so delicious and savory and a good size portion. Not salty, not too spicy, just right to taste with all the herbs and spices.

Nikki, service staff, was super nice and work diligently to serve all the customers.

The restaurant was beautifully decorated with flowers and was cleaned.

I recommend trying this restaurant.

“There food was great go get yourself some noodles“

“Tried for 1st time. Very good. Other local spots need to step up thier prep and cleanliness. This will be my new spot for deli style Chinese food. The other 2 spots in La Mirada are sub par. This is Whittier a little farther from my house but much better. In top 2 for Whittier. New China is #1. I ordered combo B. Half fried rice, half noodles. BbQ pork and a spicy chicken with peanuts. Large portions. Next time I will try a bowl.“

“i love coming here every chance i get, i’m ALWAYS treated with kindness even when it’s really busy with a bunch of people in line. i know how to be patient! the manager and her staff always put a smile on my face, & the drinks are always great “

“They have plenty of vegan options“

“Super cute shop, love that they've got little trinkets to buy!! Seating inside and out, lots of smoothie and drink options. Also can adjust the sweetness of your drink, we love this for when our sweet tooth is extra hungry🥰🥰 little bit of a line but that just means the place is popping out awesome product, line also moved super fast and the employee was very nice, this was our first time here. Prices were also good and drinks were incredibly delish!!“

“This coffee and tea shop has Vietnamese coffee with bobba and ice tea or hot , They have Food , Merchandise, and some kind of arcade machines . My Drink and food were good. The Place vibes and Decoration were so good , But I prefer to stick with the service , that was great. 😊“

“Love this place love the meets they host the drinks are really good and so is the tofu“

“Delicious 🤤 got three drinks and all amazing. Highly recommend l!“

“I’ve tried their Mystic Ube Matcha, Guava Grape Bliss, and a Peach Slush that’s no longer on the menu, and they were all delicious. I really like that they use fresh fruit, and when paired with the lowest sweetness level, the drinks turn out perfect. The staff are friendly and have recommended and fine tuned our drinks many times!

The shop itself is pretty small with no real indoor seating, so it’s definitely more of a grab-and-go spot.“

“Very kind and friendly staff! Everything was freshly made to order, juicy, and very flavorful. This was also very affordable. The scallion oil noodles, and beef/cilantro dumplings were our standouts but we loves everything we ordered.

We would love to revisit someday when we travel back to this area!“

“I was very impressed by the taste of the teas. The milk tea has a strong flavor and the fruit teas are very refreshing. This place has reasonable prices and also often runs promotions! The place has a cute aesthetic and has board games to borrow.“

“The store is a bit small but there is ample seating outside. There is also a lot of great options. Both of my drinks were great and both the guy behind the cash register and the two people working the floor making the drinks were helpful and kind at all times. 10/10“

“Price is right. They serve quick and dependable powder based boba tea drink that reminded me of college days. They have some other boba drinks too but I kinda like their non-lactose milk teas! I’ll go back and try for the other ones.

What really got me in the door were the pastries! I found the aroma, texture and flavors to have been a good quality!“

“wonderful drinks and great service!!“

“popcorn chicken is tasty and the shaved ice is delicious. will come back“

“Se ve muy limpio y el personal amable“

“This Horchata boba 🧋 is delicious 🤤! The service is awesome, long lines but well worth it 🤤“

“Cocoa cream wow 🤤 es delicioso 😋“

“this is a shop co-founded by a Taiwanese-American (ABC) and a social media influencer, offering a variety of creative snacks. Examples include Pineapple Bun Fried Chicken Burgers, Mapo Tofu Cheesy Taro Hash, Walnut Shrimp Burgers, and Hainanese Chicken Tacos—sounds so unique!

For milk tea recommendations: Try their lactose-free oat milk series and matcha fresh milk. All ingredients are carefully selected—featuring Taiwanese tea leaves and Japanese matcha—with no artificial additives. Perfect for health-conscious crowds to give a try!“

“Love it ever since I found about this place. Love that the wall is filled with anime & sometimes band logos drawings & stickers on their counter. Like the mango & peach icy (slushie). Buy one & get one free!!“

“One of my favorite places for a boba drink. The shop has special events for arts and crafts, kpop fans, and holidays. I go for the delicious drinks. My faves are the orange milky way, sweet pink, and strawberry mochi. The Alaska sunset, honey lemon mint tea, and fruit tea are also very good. The service has always been great. I only wish they were open later. Sometimes my boba craving hits at 830pm and it's too late 😭“

“Love this store very much! Old customer! ! ! ! Recommend Pink Peach Planet! ! ! And their milk tea! ! ! It tastes really good! ! ! I haven’t tried the others, but my friends said they tasted delicious.

Kid-friendliness: It tastes great, feel free to eat it! ! ! Very clean, no need to worry about food safety issues“

“When am pm coffee won't do and you only want quality coffee then this spot will satisfy your caffeine urge“

“Beautiful Design and great Boba 🧋 the best is the Hawaiian 🌺fruit drink 🍹“

“I have had a few of the specialty drinks (Sunset Passion and Dragon Slayer) and really enjoyed them. However the main drink I would usually get is a Mango tea and the mango puree is more of small/thin mango chunks and doesn’t really seem like it has as much mango flavor as I am used to.“

“X Tea Cafe is definitely my favorite tea shop lately! The brown sugar boba milk tea is rich in tea flavor with just the right amount of sweetness, and the boba is perfectly chewy and soft — absolutely delicious. The shop is clean and bright with a cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and chat with friends. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone who loves high-quality tea drinks!“

“New Boba spot and I love it. Their prices are very reasonable and I love that their boba is always fresh and soft. I always order off the swirl menu. Add creme brulee to your drink. They also have fries, onion rings, and cheese sticks. Love the plain cheese sticks, only thing missing is the marinara sauce. They give ranch but I don't like their ranch. It tastes weird. I tried the plain onion rings extra crispy. They are ok but leave a grainy after taste. I'll stick to the cheese sticks. But I love their boba. I go almost every day“

“I got the Four Seasons (a white tea) milk tea, which I think is my new favorite tea base, with 75% sweetness, large boba, regular ice, and creme brûlée pudding (I thought I would get something I don’t often see as a topping). I am so happy with this drink! Service was fast and easy, I ordered on a kiosk and the drink was called out within 5 minutes! When I mixed in the pudding and boba, the drink was super sweet (which is what I wanted, but next time I should probably get 50% or 25% sweet or not get the creme brûlée pudding, to limit myself to a more reasonable sugar intake). The boba was perfectly chewy, on the softer side, which is what I prefer, with good flavor, and there was a generous amount. The creme brûlée made the milk tea taste like vanilla ice cream and caramel were mixed in. Soooo good. Thank you for a nice dessert stop! The shop is small but very cozy with a few seating options. Side note: I was happy to hear Now or Never from High School Musical 3 playing over the speakers when I walked in. It warmed my gen z heart.

After looking at other reviews, I also wanted to add: You can order using one of 2 kiosks, or with a cashier at the register. There is also a QR code for the menu, and a printed menu near the register. The employee called out our orders when they came out.“

“Came here with my friend and the drinks were solid. I got the Osmanthus Tropic and Thai Tea for my friend. Solid Thai tea flavor and quite standard.Their fruit teas are way better though. The Osmanthus Tropic was flavorful and fruity with a deeper tea flavor. I got it with crystal boba. Id recommend this!“

“First time trying out this place; our friend Peggy recommended here. We loved the authentic favors of our drinks and fantastic service from Sarah. Very attentive and making sure our drinks were good. Will come back again when we travel back to LA!“

“The store is bright and fun. Staffs are young with joyful smile. Of course the drinks are great which bring the happy day.“

“We LOVED their fried rice it was so good! Solid amount of chicken in it too. We ordered the chicken garlic noodles as well that was also tasty. The woman who took our order was so sweet she brought out all of our items to us very gingerly and also put a nice big bottle of siracha out. We wished we lived closer so we could come more often!“

“El Monte doesn’t have too many good boba spots, but Ono Tea House is a decent option. Prices here are a little lower than most places, which is nice.

The tea itself is just okay — not super strong — and the drinks can lean on the sweeter side. I usually order mine with 1/4 sugar since I don’t like them too sweet.

Overall, it’s not a spot I’d go out of my way for, but if you’re in El Monte and really craving boba, it does the job.“

“Great boba! I ordered the Brown Sugar Matcha and one of their signatures, the Hokkaido Milk Tea... The matcha was delicious and the brown sugar was a nice subtle twist! The hokkaido milk tea was a bit sweet for me but otherwise very enjoyable. In the end, I think the matcha was my favorite“

“Just tried Teaspoon and it’s fantastic!“

“Honestly, I couldn’t really say much about the atmosphere yet, I have never been inside the store. My orders were via delivery but from experience it’s the best, excellent and tasty Taro boba drink I’ve ever had. It’s so hard to a very good Taro drink these days using fresh Taro, I love ❤️❤️❤️ House Taro Yuan the best!! Please keep up the great work and never change your ingredients, you are the best and my favorite of all!! I’ll be sure to stop by and experience the taste of the atmosphere being inside your store!!“

“The drinks were good. The tofu pudding was legit.
Service can be slower as there is one person manning the whole operation from making drinks to punching cash machines.
The order app does not work when we tried.

Do note there is a free 2 hours parking at the back garage“

“South El Monte has some of the best boba in the world. South El Monte is also home to a lot of Taiwanese boba supplies companies and import so that makes people who start boba shop businesses in the South El Monte an easy access to the materials and that makes it all thrive. When I am not getting the 7Leaves down the street in South El Monte, I would come here to study Mandarin or work on software engineering projects remotely. I think South El Monte has a thriving community of Asian and boba drink lovers. Hello Boba adds another great addition to that one. Another great option is Boba Time which is also right down the same street. I love to get boba and then head to the King Taco place and drink boba with my taco.“

“The Spring Oolong Tea Milk Tea was perfect for me with its sugar adjustment. I can taste the actual tea; no powder involved. The shop itself is small and very cute. Support your local businesses! 10/10 would recommend to a friend! The tea is good.“

“Okay, I’m from the east coast, so my perspective will affect this.
The boba tea was absolutely amazing. I got the strawberry milk boba tea, and I loved it. It was so cheap too, especially with the toppings I added. I got it with coffee jelly, boba, pudding, and it tasted so good. It also tasted like there was actual strawberry in there and not just strawberry flavoring. Had some strawberry bits in it too. I can’t believe how cheap it was, ($6.50) for a large boba with three toppings. Was also pretty fast too.“

“butter cookie coffee 👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀“

“Excellent service! Taro milk tea hot was delicious and sweet. Kids for the strawberry snow...LOVED it. Hubby got the milk tea and he says it's brewed a little bitter here, must be the type of black tea. Otherwise, all good and we keep going back. Cute place with a fun seasonal chalk drawing in the back!“

“japanese rice tea/milk tea.“

“I have been trying various milk tea places in the area to find a place that would cater milk tea for my upcoming wedding. My wife could not have the wedding without having milk tea served to the guests. My wife and I tried the champ milk tea here and decided that this place was the one. Their portions are much larger than other shops, and the tea flavor is pronounced and not covered by sugar/milk. The manager, Ryan, was super helpful in preparing our bulk order for the wedding, and it was a major hit during our wedding. Definitely come here for their various milk tea flavors, and also highly recommend their Kumquat green tea! Thank you Tea Champ!“

“Very delicious drink, my family really love brown sugar boba milk and classic milk tea here“
