    I was eating nearby at Mr. BBQ Jr. in The District at Tustin Legacy and decided to finally stop by and try 3CAT, since I've heard so much about them and seen so many good reviews. I'm always on the hunt for a good boba/tea spot, so I had to see for myself what all the hype was about! It's a small, cute, and quaint lil shop with a lil seating area. I stopped by after dinner around 6:30ish on a Friday night, and it was poppin'! You order from a kiosk and then wait for your number to be called. The menu had some really unique drink options, which made it a lil tough to decide what to get! For my first visit, I opt'd to try the Peachy Strawberry Glow, and it was delicious! It's a blended peach and strawberry smoothie with sweet mashed strawberries layered at the bottom. You can definitely taste the quality of the ingredients, and I loved that you could actually taste and get chunks of fresh fruit with each sip. I got the drink at 100% sweetness, since I figured the ice from the blended smoothie would dilute it a bit, and it ended up being perfect. The combo was fruity, refreshing, and just the right amount of sweet. I get that their drinks are handcrafted, but at $8.72, it's definitely a bit pricier than most tea spots. While I enjoyed my drink, I'm not sure it's something I'd go out of my way for. But if I'm in the area and craving a tea, I'd definitely stop by and try it again! RxFoodie recommends ~ at least try it once!

    Mochi Mango & Cheesy Strawberry Peach

    Never had 3CAT before, so we decided to give it a try! We ordered the Cheesy Strawberry Peach and Mochi Mango. The Cheesy Strawberry Peach was really good, although I didn't taste much of the peach. I also added boba, but unfortunately, the texture was pretty mushy. The Mochi Mango wasn't overly sweet, which I really liked, and it had a fresh mango flavor. Both drinks were enjoyable overall, and I'd definitely order them again. We ordered through the kiosk, and our drinks were made pretty quickly. Overall, a good first experience, and I'd come back to try more of their menu!

    Cam around 1 on a Saturday with no line. I got an Icy Peach and my boyfriend got a rice frost. We waited about 7 minutes to get our drinks. This is my 2-3rd time coming to this 3cat and they're usually pretty decent every time. The icy peach was super good. I went 75% sweetness but probably could go even lower if I order this again. The peaches added a nice crunch and the iciness was super refreshing on a hot day. My boyfriend rice frost was a bit on the mushy side (the rice) and was not as icy as he would've liked it to be. It was also quite sweet despite him ordering less sweetness.

    Been here a few times and oh my, i found my favorite drink! The Frosty sticky rice mango! If you're a fan of mango sticky rice dessert, this might be the drink for you! I was surprise how good it was and how the sticky rice wasn't hard? Tbh, I would go back just to get this drink again!

    Mochi Mango, Cheese Berry
    Cindy T.

    One of my favorite spots to grab a drink. My go-tos are the Mango Mochi and Avomango and I usually ask for 75% sweet. I also love all the cute cat decor and the japanese cat photography book. Employees are quick and service is good.

    Cheese berry and mochi mango
    Vivian T.

    Ordered the cheese berry and mochi mango drinks and they were super delicious and refreshing! The boba was perfectly cooked and chewy. The cheese berry tasted just like a blueberry cheesecake and was not overpoweringly sweet - love how they do sweetness modifications too. The mochi mango is one of their iconic drinks here and was delicious as well. Drinks came out pretty quickly after ordering on the tablet. Overall great boba spot and will definitely be back.

    Mochi barley burst!
    Elaria W.

    3cat overall has become one of my favorite boba chains! I get their mochi barley burst, 25% sweet, less or no ice every single time. The mochi is the smoothest and best part of their drinks, good flavor and a nice little chew without being overly chewy. The tea flavor is strong, and the barley boba is divine. Incredibly flavorful and refreshing drink! The other drinks with mochi are also great, like their mango. You generally self order, but it works well because all the staff has a great rhythm of making drinks and bringing them out fast, even when the place is packed. Highly recommend tasting around their menu! Not everything is my favorite or something I would choose, but I think it's all high quality at least.

    Still a super solid Boba spot at the district in Tustin, which says a lot with how quickly businesses move in and out of this shopping plaza. Love that they continue to rotate seasonal drinks, it's a convenient spot to get Boba if you're in the area and know where to park, and I do think that they have some of the better fancy blended drink drinks across other Boba shops! The employees are always pleasant. Service is decently fast, and there's a good amount of indoor seating.

    Mochi Oreo
    Czarina D.

    I looove their mochi drinks! The mochi tastes smooth like pudding but has a lovely little chew. I've tried a bunch of drinks, but their mochi ones are my fave. My favorite drink is definitely the mochi mango. It's sooo fruity and creamy! I also love the Mochi Matcha. Mochi Oreo is pretty good too. I tried their Panna too in the Hazelnut Chocolate Panna which was good! But I must say, the mochi drinks are better. It's usually busy, but 3CAT is a well-oiled machine. The line for the kiosk was a little slow, so I ordered online. I love that they have a TV screen to tell you what orders they're working on. And when I ordered online, they gave me an accurate ETA and texted me when the drinks were ready. For how busy they were, the wait really wasn't that long. I'd love to come back and try more!

    Oh 3CAT, why do you have to be so good?! The avomango sweet dew is my absolute favorite! I love the mango and grapefruit at the bottom. They pair really well with the avocado smoothie to give some brightness and slight tartness to this already delicious drink. I usually end up buying two when I come here hehe My friend and her daughter enjoyed their drinks as well. There's some seating inside, along with plenty of lounge seats outside. They can get really busy but drinks come out fairly quickly.

    Mochi Mango
    Thuy L.

    Ordered via QR code at door or can order via kiosk inside. The site in which I ordered my app gave me an expected time it was ready after ordering and also had an updated status when ready. Got a Mochi Mango and it was so yummy. I regretted not getting another one as I shared it with my son and hubby. Lesson learned. My son pretty much drank the whole thing. So good and that mochi in the drink--tasty! Gotta come back to try the other flavors!

    Icy Peach and Mango Sweet Dew
    Kaila B.

    I love this 3CAT location! They have great drinks and love that they use real fruit. The drinks are not too sweet which is awesome. Solid choice for a dog-friendly boba shop with the seating area outside and the plaza to walk around.

    Mochi Mango
    Jenny Y.

    You can never go wrong with 3CAT! My favorite is mochi mango. I should try other flavors but every time I'm back, I always go for the mochi mango. Two delicious combination that goes so well together. It gets pretty crowded here so I'm really glad they have the kiosk to place your order first. It's also a nice hang out place but kinda wish the AC was stronger when it's crowded.

    Do they offer dairy free milk subsitutes?

    Not for all drinks, but yes, for drinks like milk teas, there's oat milk for an additional cost.

    Honestly disappointing, especially what appears to be good reviews of this place…read more The only positive factor I can remember is how much seating there is inside (lots of people just meeting up, working, etc). - You order on two available consoles, which you think would help with efficiency and workflow (it was pretty busy when I got there). However, it took my drink a while to come out. There was a sign above the consoles that indicate ETA of the drink. Based on the color I thought it would be a quick wait but it ended up taking 15 minutes. It seems like the coffee station, manned by one person it seems, was cranking out multiple drinks whereas the drink I got (matcha) took a long time - this is despite me being one of few matcha drinks ordered when I was waiting... - I noticed that as the barista was whisking my drink, she took the whisk out, took a look at the whisk then with her bare hands touched the tip of the whisk and reinserted it into the cup.. all without washing her hands or using gloves... I honestly wanted to say something but I was already in a rush and didn't want to make a scene at an already busy hour and the barista looked kind of frazzled already... - If you are hoping for a strong matcha, this isn't the place to go to. I got the blueberry matcha, which was a pale green in a color and it tasted like a premade mix of blueberry matcha.. although calling it matcha may be a bit generous as the drink just tasted like blueberry milk...Not sure if I'll be coming back.. not for matcha any way

    On such a hot day. I was craving something fresh and nutritious after church…read more My Yelp friends led me here, and when I first walked in, there was a little bit of a line which I usually interpret as a good sign. I spent about $14 for an açai bowl their tropical mango bowl I believe. I had some modifications since I didn't like the raw coconut offering or the banana so I opted for sliced almonds and extra mango with almond butter on top. After waiting a few minutes, looking at the bowl, it didn't look like much and sadly it didn't taste like much either. The almond butter was globed on top and made it really difficult to eat. After bypassing the almond butter I was able to get into the açai which was way too sweet. I'm not sure what type of açai they use, but it did not taste like a freshly prepared açai it tasted more artificial and overly sweet. It may have also been sweet because of the honey I believe they put on top of it. The combination of the açai with the honey and then almond butter was way too sweet. The mango was OK not as firm as I would want it to be and the granola was at the bottom at the bowl and also sprinkled on top, but unfortunately it was the worst acai bowl I've ever had. Parking is free and they do offer a few seats inside. The staff was also really nice but unfortunately, if I do decide to come back maybe I'll try a smoothie instead.

Unfortunately, I was told the mochi sago wasn't available at all to add in ANY drink. Oh thats disappointing. I then decided to order some chicken instead, only to be told that they weren't currently selling any food items AT ALL because they were too busy, which is INSANE especially during LUNCH hour. I understand that places can get busy, but it was disappointing to make the drive during my LIMITED lunch break only to find out that the items I wanted weren't available and that food wasn't being served AT ALL. The store seem unprepared to handle customers during a busy time of day. If certain drinks or food items aren't going to be available during lunch hours, it would be helpful to know beforehand. I ended up wasting my lunch break and leaving without getting anything I came for. Unfortunately, not a great experience. ***update from today's experience 9/15/26** I came back again hoping they would have at least something else I wanted. I saw there was a promotion for the Peach Me Sweetea but they seemed short staffed and very unprepared for the promotion. The line was also long that by the time i was able to order, my lunch break was just about up. I feel bad for the workers tho, it seems they have a bit of staffing issue at this location.

    Hui Lau Shan -- Mangoes, Brain Freeze & One Bee Awaiting the Hereafter…read more 9/7/26 -- Irvine, CA -- 5/5 After Korean BBQ, we arrived at Hui Lau Shan -- pronounced roughly hoy lo sahn in Cantonese -- already stuffed to the structural limits of the human abdomen. Naturally, this seemed like an appropriate time for dessert. Hui Lau Shan is a Hong Kong-based dessert chain heavily devoted to mango, which is immediately apparent from the display case filled with glossy dessert mannequins identified by little tags like "J3 Pomelo & Mango with Sago." The place knows its constituency. If mango is your religion, this is at minimum a chapel. The Irvine location itself is remarkably unpretentious: cracked, slightly sticky-looking concrete floors, deafening music that sounded approximately 15 years past its cultural sell-by date, and a youthful crowd containing several people whose legs appeared skinnier than my fingers. I felt less like a customer and more like an archaeological specimen temporarily admitted for observation. Being the radical nonconformist that I am, I came to a mango dessert shop and ordered the watermelon with coconut jelly. On a hot Irvine day, it was excellent -- cold, clean, refreshing and just sweet enough. 5/5. The little yellow Hui Lau Shan spoon, complete with cheerful fruit-headed mascot, provided an additional level of emotional support I did not know dessert utensils were capable of. We also had the J3 Pomelo & Mango with Sago, which arrived as mango, pomelo, sago and a scoop of mango ice cream lounging together in a bowl like wealthy relatives at a resort. Also 5/5. Cold enough to initiate a brain freeze, but on this particular evening brain activity had already been reduced considerably by KBBQ, so little was lost. The ordering system is straightforward: your receipt gives you an order number and server name, and the display samples make choosing fairly idiot-resistant. Ours even identified the J3 and the watermelon dessert clearly enough that no graduate degree in tropical fruit studies was required. There was, however, one melancholy resident inside the display case: a small bee apparently trapped behind the plastic among the immaculate fake desserts. Outside, Irvine remained warm and prosperous. Inside, mangoes glistened. The young remained young. The bee contemplated mortality. Los Angeles throws pollution into the atmosphere at rush hour; Hui Lau Shan throws mango into essentially everything else. A very good dessert stop after an irresponsibly large meal. Especially if you love mango, shaved ice, fruit desserts and the mild humiliation of realizing everyone around you appears young enough to be your intern. 5/5. If you are a mango lover, you will probably leave happy. If you are a dying bee trapped behind the dessert display, your evening is developing somewhat differently. 当然。下面是一个更简短、正式、没有幽默成分的中文版本: 许留山 Hui Lau Shan -- Irvine, CA 评分:5/5 在韩国烧烤之后,我们来到许留山吃甜品。这家店以芒果类甜品为主,店内展示了多种甜品模型,点餐方式简单直观。 我们点了西柚芒果西米和西瓜椰果甜品。西柚芒果西米包含芒果、西柚、西米和芒果冰淇淋,口感清爽,甜度适中,芒果味很突出。西瓜椰果也非常适合炎热天气,冰凉爽口,不会过甜。 店内环境现代、休闲,顾客以年轻人为主。服务和出餐流程都很直接,整体体验轻松方便。 如果喜欢芒果、西米、椰果和港式水果甜品,许留山是一个很不错的选择。 5/5,值得再来。

    **Disappointing Customer Service Experience -- August 24, 2026, Around 6:00 PM**…read more I've been coming to this store almost twice a week, so I'm very familiar with what my usual smoothie should look like. Unfortunately, my experience today, **August 24th around 6:00 PM**, was extremely disappointing. I ordered the **Berry Banana Burst** with an added spinach. While watching my smoothie being prepared, I noticed the employee added what appeared to be an entire bag of spinach. I immediately knew it was significantly more than what I normally receive. I politely asked if it could be remade because the amount was excessive and completely different from the usual amount I receive. The employee went to the back and brought **Cassandra S.** out. Cassandra told me they could not remake the smoothie simply because the spinach had already been added. I was honestly shocked. I explained that this was clearly not the normal amount, but she still refused. I then asked for the other employee's name so I could provide accurate feedback, and she refused to give me her name, which I found very odd and unprofessional. Ultimately, I asked for a refund, which they provided. While I appreciate getting my money back, it raises a bigger concern: if a customer receives a drink that is incorrectly made, is the response really to refuse to fix it and simply refund the customer? That doesn't seem like good customer service or a good business practice. I actually work in the ingredient industry and sell ingredients to **Nekter**, so I have a particular understanding of how important consistency, preparation, and customer experience are. I would strongly recommend additional training for the staff at this location, particularly around customer service, product consistency, and having a customer-first mindset. I've been a loyal customer and would have much rather had my smoothie remade correctly than receive a refund. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I'll be visiting another location going forward. I hope management reviews what happened during the **August 24th, approximately 6:00 PM shift**, because this was a very disappointing experience for a regular customer.
