Amazing Boba & Even Better Flavors!

I stopped by Mo Tea recently and was seriously impressed. Their boba tea is next level — perfectly chewy pearls, rich flavor, and just the right sweetness.

My top pick? Strawberry Taro. It sounds like an unusual combo, but trust me — it's incredible. Creamy, slightly fruity, and super refreshing. It's one of those drinks you sip once and instantly crave again.

The shop itself is clean, stylish, and the staff was super friendly. Definitely my new go-to spot for boba. If you haven’t tried it yet, you're missing out!

I had a Peach Green Lemonade with peach bubbles-less sweet and it was great! The girls at the register were so accommodating and ready to make suggestions. I traveled here specifically while cross country moving for Lou Malnati’s deep dish next door, which didn’t allow animals on the patio. Motea is next door, and allowed my dog and outside food while traveling cross country and that’s all I can ask for. I have an 11 hr drive ahead of me, but am in no rush because the atmosphere was so relaxing. Great, friendly staff! They deserve a raise+bonus. P.S. They gave my dog a bigger pup cup than Starbucks lol

i’m only giving a 1 star because the lady with the short hair made my drink and it tasted so watered down. The way she was making it did not look like she knew what she was doing. I honestly will never let her take my order again and definitely think you guys should do something about her working there.

I got boba the other day and I walked in to stench of marijuana smell and I could tell it was a young girl working there who was causing the smell, so I asked her named and she said Darren. The smell was so strong my boba tasted foul!!!! Why are we smoking on the job?????

I normally don't like boba but my friends insisted we go try out this place. Sure I was skeptical but boy was I wrong. I talked to the manager and he said that all of the drinks were fresh.. I ordered the Nutella ice cream and the girl who made it was SUPERRR fast, it took her like 5 minutes I think to roll that out which other places take way longer. The other girl who gave us our ice cream was super friendly and complimented us, saying that we were a cute friend group. We will be coming back for sure!!

This place needs work. The boba does not taste fresh, the fresh fruit teas taste like they are actually made from syrups, and on my most recent visit it took 25 minutes to get one order of the crispy chicken dish because the servers forgot my order. Ultimately the ramen and crispy chicken is tasty which is why I’m giving them a 3 star review and not a 1 star review.

Third time here and it never disappoints!! Everything is so tasty for both people with a savory or sweet tooth. The girls that took our order and made our boba drinks were so nice!! Definitely one of the best spots for lunch and sweet treats around here!

I love coming here for a quick bite and refreshing drink. I got the pot stickers, rolled tiramisu icecream, and some bubble tea. It's my favorite spot for bubble tea so many options!

One men and one lady laughing on the customer after placing an order! Is that weird? I feel not welcoming, I will not be back here again.

Hello, I just recently came in to try some of the delicious rolled ice cream and bubble tea. I normally don't like ramen but my granddaughter really wanted to try it, and after taking that first bite, let's just say I was flabbergasted. Not only did it taste like real authentic ingredients but it was warm (which sounds weird but some soup places I've been to serve lukewarm soup). I tried the rose milk tea which was absolutely life-changing, they didn't have tapioca prepared so I took a gamble and tried the crystal boba, BEST toping ever!!!! It was so good and my granddaughter got the custard pudding bubble milk tea, which I thought pudding custard in a drink would taste bad but it paired amazingly!!! The staff were super friendly, and the girl working was really attentive to if I liked the toppings (which I did!!!).Highly recommend coming here since it is getting warmer and the ice cream is really cooling (I recommend the perfect pair!!! It's really PERFECT!!!) So sad that I just stumbled upon this hidden gem, will be coming back!! OVERALL food 10/10 atmosphere 10/10 staff 10/10!!!!!!

Would have written the review sooner but was super busy!! Fog Brian!!! I came in on a Tuesday 💗💗

I went yesterday on Mother’s Day. The drinks were good as always. The service was horrible. First I waited for this family who took entirely too long to decide what they wanted. The cashier acted like he didn’t want to take my order. Then it took more than 30 minutes to get two drinks. I’ve been to this store many times but I’ll never come here again.
