    It's a pretty small space so if there were to be a line, it would head outdoors. I do love how they can take your order in person , but also they have 2 kiosks to tap to start your order if you want to avoid maybe a line occurring. I came around opening hours and I was second in line. And no line was formed behind me. It's a cute little spot & it was a hot day. I ordered their large oolong milk tea, part of their Milk Tea Series. I've only ever seen it before while shopping in this area but finally was able to try it before I left to the shops. Honestly, super refreshing. Although there aren't seats inside, there are some benches outside this establishment with shade. Thankfully there was a breeze this day. Can't wait to come back hopefully with friends this time.

    My husband and I wanted to try another milk tea spot aside from our usual "go to" nearby. Saw this place before but would pass it up because the few times we've walked by, there was often a congregating crowd out front. Came around 8pm on a Wednesday, so it wasn't too bad. Smaller interior with a couple of kiosks to enter your drink order, but you're also able to order at the counter as well. Order up (from the Milk Tea & Fruit Milk Tea Series): - Milk Tea (husband's) - Strawberry Milk Tea (mine) After piercing the straw with much excitement and anticipation for the steeped tea flavor to come through, but unfortunately it just wasn't there for us. Bummer..."Alittle Tea" was literally just a little tea, if that. Points for efficiency and free toppings. CHEERS and happy eating till next time...

    This tasty Taiwanese brand first caught my attention in the sgv area near Tawa plaza. Coincidentally, it's across from a Tawa plaza in Irvine! Now, any boba shop from the sgv area making its way down to Irvine is arguably likely to be good. And while the tea was one dimensional and straightforward, the fact that it's "nothing fancy" is why I've been here 3x this week already. If you want a reliable jasmine mt with endless toppings (no additional charge!!) then this is the place. The baristas are nice, the area is nice. Solid 8/10 Ig/Tiktok: socalyumiez

    I'd been wanting to check this spot out for a while, but I kept putting it off because there always seems to be a crowd hanging around outside the entrance. To be clear, it's not a line--just people loitering around the doors, which makes it a little uninviting. I ordered the Four Seasons milk tea and the ice cream black tea, and unfortunately both tasted like they were very light on tea flavor. The milk tea tasted mostly like milk, and the ice cream black tea tasted mostly like ice cream, with very little tea coming through. On the plus side, they use fresh milk, and you can definitely taste the quality, which I appreciated. It just overpowered the tea for me. I'd still come back to try some of the non-milk tea options and would be happy to update my review after trying those.

    This spot is my go-to in Irvine now, the value makes it too good to pass up on and it's really close to where I live. This place is cheap, less than $6 for a large drink and it's free toppings, which makes it even better. It's located in a plaza with a ton of boba options, but I find myself coming back every time. I go for their black tea or milk tea. I will say that they can be inconsistent with the milk powder and syrup ratio since they measure everything by spoonful, so you should try their drink before you leave and make sure they made it correctly. Also do remember your order number after you order or else it gets a little confusing. When they get it correct, it's perfect, but I've also gotten watered down milk tea before. Their boba consistency is always top tier so I get all my drinks with boba. Their egg pudding is solid, but when I get boba and pudding, I find that they put less topping overall.

    This place has quickly become one of my go-to boba spots! It's affordable, quick, and the toppings are free!! I usually get their milk teas, but if you look at the menu they offer a wide variety of options including slushies and matcha! The boba here is really good. It's chewy and always has the perfect texture! I also like to get the grass jelly or coffee jelly here. And did I mention the toppings are free?! I usually order online and the drink is ready by the time I arrive, so it's very convenient. I highly recommend this spot if you are looking for reasonably priced boba is OC!

    I have been really loving ALittle Tea recently. The first time I tried it I wasn't too impressed, but it was amazing the second time and now I've been back almost every week oops. On the Hungry Panda app there are always discounts so I'm able to get a large milk tea with toppings for less than $3.50 it's such a good deal you really won't find anywhere else in Irvine. I like my drinks less sweet and I love that they actually honor the sweetness adjustments here- the first time I came here I got 30% sweetness and it actually needed more sweetness. Since then I've been getting 70% and it's perfect! My favorite I've tried here is the four season milk tea with the mini boba I'm obsessed.

    The previous Champion Food had permanently closed, and this new bubble tea shop took its place. I ordered an ice cream black tea. The amount of ice cream floating on top was very small, and even after asking for no ice, the tea still tasted thin and watered‑down. I would've been better off going to Heytea or Wushiland across the street. 之前的冠軍食品永久歇業了,換這家手搖。 點了杯冰淇淋紅茶七分糖。浮在杯頂的冰淇淋份量好少,即便去冰後茶湯味道還是淡稀水。 還不如去對街的喜茶或五十嵐。

    Stopped by to try this new tea shop. The boba was chewy and fresh. Ordered via the kiosk and was reasonably priced. The service was quick for my order. There is no seatings inside and so you will have to just take the tea to go.

    3.7 stars. Location is in a busy plaza- good luck with parking. Store isn't that spacious and there's not really seating for you to wait so it is primarily an order for pick up place. There's a kiosk on the left side of the store to order. Quality of the drinks is just about on par or a little less than the other locations. Wait time takes longer because less staff in this smaller location.

    1st time getting bubble tea from here. I got the classic milk tea with boba, pudding and pearls. It's nice that these toppings came without additional charge. The self ordering kiosk was easy to use and order was done pretty quickly. The bubble tea was good overall, the boba wasn't as chewy as I would have lies

    One of many tea shops in the same general area, but this location has the best prices. This shopping center is a little bit older so the parking lot is less organized and the lot can get very crowded at times. This location has no indoor seating available, but there are some outdoor tables and benches available that are shared by all the businesses. You order off of one of two kiosks inside. There are no alternative milk options listed on their menu. One of the factors that makes this location stand out is the price. It's on the cheaper side for current day boba prices and many of the topping options are included for free. The drinks are made at a pretty average speed and they had many online orders that they were also making at the same time. The quality of the tea is decent and the boba is cooked well. The drinks were very standard and nothing really stood out, but it's a good option for the price.

    MY NEWEST OBSESSION! I'm Alittle Tea's biggest fan right now. The taste of the tea and boba remind me of Taiwan, especially with the price point! It tastes exactly like the boba I'd get in Taiwan... an authentic Taiwanese large milk tea boba for $5.50 is unheard of these days. I've been recommending this place to all of my friends lately, though I want to gatekeep it since there haven't been long lines yet. I'm glad it doesn't get super busy and the longest you'll have to wait is probably 10 minutes! I'm a milk tea person and this place really hits the spot for me. I've tried the green milk tea, classic milk tea, and four seasons milk tea all 75% sweet with boba and they're all delicious! I will say that if you're someone that likes a basic milk tea boba, this place will be right up your alley. It's nothing fancy--no frills--just good tea and boba at a great price (which is why I love it)! This did replace the Champion store that used to be there for decades. shoutout to them though, you will be missed :')

    We've tried so many different drinks here. Can't go wrong with any choice, unless you have a…read morepreference. There is mobile order, kiosk, and ordering directly at the register. I will say they messed up a mobile order of mine once and were really nice about fixing this for me despite I already left the store. Drinks are always made quickly, fresh. There can be a wait on a busy day/evening. Tea is good, lots of customization, quantity and quality of toppings are worth it. A staple boba shop I always come back to.

    Very disappointed by Wushiland today around 3:30 p.m…read more When I received my drink, I immediately noticed that it looked like I had received about half the amount of QQube toppings I usually get. Whenever I order from Wushiland, the toppings typically reach around the part of the cup where the word "boba" is printed. Today, there was noticeably less. I politely mentioned to the staff that I frequent Wushiland and that they typically put much more QQube in my drinks. The staff member told me they put one scoop of toppings and that they had done that for my drink. While I understand that there may be a standard serving size, it was frustrating to hear this, especially as a loyal customer who has several photos of my previous Wushiland drinks showing significantly more toppings. I also had another frustrating experience while my drink was being made. I could hear the staff discussing that they were starting to run out of the drink I ordered. Instead of letting me know, they added more ice to my drink, even though I specifically ordered it with less ice. I would have much rather been informed that they were running low so I could decide whether I wanted to make a different selection. I'm not sure if this was an issue with the staff working today or if something was different because of the Labor Day holiday, but the overall experience was very upsetting. I'm especially disappointed because I've had several positive experiences at Wushiland in the past and have always enjoyed coming here. Now I'm pissed and going to Heytea.

I chose to go with the Mango Dew since it was more of a smoothie and it was a hot day. It had a mango based smoothie with passionfruit, one of my favorite combos. The drink with tax ended up being around $8 and it was ready in about a few minutes. After getting it, I loved the flavor and could not stop drinking it. My only complaint was that even though there was only 3 tables occupied, all the other tables were dirty so we didn't feel comfortable sitting while waiting. I think that says a lot since there were more dirty tables than clean ones. It also made it difficult to tell if someone was sitting at a table or not, or just in the bathroom. I don't believe it was too busy considering there was only one person's order prior to us ordering as well.

I was…read moreexpecting a more fruity, mango-forward drink but it ended up being a little too creamy for my taste. There was definitely a fresh mango flavor, but the creamy components overpowered it more than I would have liked. I did enjoy the mochi though! It's different from the standard mochi texture and shape you might normally expect. It's thin, less chewy, and pairs nicely with the drink without feeling too heavy. Located in The District at Tustin, not too far from AMC. There are two self-service kiosks available for ordering.
