    Their ridiculous hierarchy pyramid. Lol
    Kimberly T.

    Ok consistency 5/5 stars, caffeine 6/5 stars, to go time 6/5 stars, brick toast 5/5 stars, pink boba when it's fresh 5/5 stars Service has gotten a lot better over the years or maybe just don't dine in anymore lol. Orders are always accurate, I hope this place stays open forever. Our go to once a week / I need to stay awake and focus boba place. Love you forever Au79!

    Food came out of the kitchen, hot and fresh. We did go light on the salt and pepper seasoning, and it was just the right amount. The drinks were refreshing, drinks did have lower sugar, but it was still sweet enough to enjoy. Service was helpful, especially since this was our first time. I had a lot of questions about the various toppings that we were not used to. The staff welcomed us and made us feel like this would be a nice spot to hang out at. Inside was a little crowded because it is popular. I like how clean they kept the place. Unfortunately I wish they had more seating. Overall, it's worth a visit again.

    Large size drink and FULL serving of topping, only $6.05!

    I love the passionfruit green tea with aloe, milk tea with boba and lychee jelly, and strawberry milk tea with boba! What's really great about this place is that their drinks have not declined in quality over the years I've been here. In fact, it's been only getting better. I used to feel kinda lukewarm about this place like 10 years ago but now, I absolutely love it. Years ago, the prices used to be high compared to other options around the area. Now, the prices are SO MUCH BETTER than anywhere else I go. I just ordered a LARGE drink with a FULL SERVING of topping, and it only cost me $6.05! At literally any other boba shop elsewhere, I'd be paying $8 for the same exact thing that probably wouldn't even taste as good. LITERALLY UNHEARD OF THESE DAYS! My only gripe is that the rewards system has changed, and we need to spend more to unlock smaller rewards. But, if that's what it takes to keep Au79 open for a long time, I'll gladly take it. Another unique thing I really love about Au79 is that we get the option to add on 1/2 servings or full servings of toppings. AND, they adjust the price too. It's $0.33 for a 1/2 serving, which is approximately the same amount of toppings you get elsewhere. If you love extra toppings, then the full serving size is for you, which is $0.66. This means that I can get a 1/2 serving of boba and 1/2 serving of lychee jelly for ONLY 66 CENTS. That's amazing! And I get more variety too. I don't have to pay the same flat rate for "less boba" as the next customer getting a regular amount of boba. Drinks are always made fast, as I almost never have to wait longer than 5-10 minutes. Ambiance can occasionally be louder as people are always going in and out, or the blender is turned on. But, there are 4 tables, window "bar" seating, outlets, free WiFi, and working bathrooms, making this a great study area. I've noticed that other customers usually don't stay too long at the tables. There's also plenty of outdoor seating available for customers, which they wipe down and put away each night. All in all, PLEASE continue to keep Au79 in business. With all the other locations that have shut down, this one HAS to stay open. This is one of the few boba stores that I still like to frequent.

    popcorn chicken and tofu
    Katherine T.

    the popcorn chicken is sooo good!! perfectly crispy without being dry. medium was the perfect spice and i liked that you could add a side of spice or salt and pepper for 10 cents! they have two ordering kiosks and orders come out pretty quickly. would def recommend if you're craving popcorn chicken!

    This is one of my favorite boba place. They are located in a convenient location that I can always come by after I am done with my grocery shopping. Mango slush with rainbow jelly is my favorite drink at this place. The drink was very refreshing on a hot day. It was not too sweet with 100% sweetness, and the rainbow jelly is just a flavorful addition to the drink. Customer can place their own order on the monitor by the entrance. This store also offered loyalty program in point system, which loyal customers are able to receives perks. There are tables and chair inside and outside of the store for customers to use. Parking is very easy. Will continue to support.

    The jasmine green milk tea or osmanthus oolong are my go tos. There's something about the tea that Au79 uses that is extra floral and delicate!! The boba is always a good texture and perfectly sweet

    Menu, April 2026

    The Bing Sa is a slushy drink in a cup. It is not a bowl with shaved ice on top and whole red beans etc. that you can scoop out and eat. It's a blended drink that didn't have much red bean (you can't scoop whole beans out or anything like that). Although it was good, it definitely can be much better with more red beans in. I'd say 3.5 stars.

    My kids finished all the bobas that they ordered and they loves it. I only tried a sip since we full after dinner from next door restaurant. There's long line and most people get it for to go. There's few chairs and tables outside for hang out and also inside.

    Barley milk tea
    Nicole L.

    I ordered the barley milk tea regular sugar with light ice. The texture of the barley paired well with the black based tea. Would definitely order again! Seating is available both inside and outside. There are two kiosks to order from or you can place an order at the register. Staff is friendly and will call out your name when the order is ready. Interior has dim lighting and lots of natural light coming from the front window.

    Place is always busy even late. Which means theres a wait to get even basic drinks. But the flavors are amazing. Never too sweet and nicely tea forward. And decent prices

    AU79 Milk Tea

    The milk tea I got was ok. A little water down. I'll try them again another time. I'm sure their other drinks are better. Quick reviews just for you

    Decided to give this Taiwanese cafe a second try and I had a better experience than my Doordash…read moreorder. It's located inside a busy shopping plaza so parking can be difficult, especially on the weekends. It's open daily 7am-7pm Service was average since this is one of those " pay at the counter for the food and take a seat" kind of place. However, it would have been nice if the cashier told us to grab our soy milk from the fridge or at least handed it to us after we ordered it. We were waiting 15+ minutes for the items only to go up to the counter and realize that we were supposed to get it ourselves but we're never told to do so. It's quite small inside but there is a decent amount of seating Pricing is resonable and nearly everything is under $15! The Curry Pastry ($2.60) was pretty good. It would've been better if it was more crispy but the filling was very delicious and had plenty of curry and beef! The Sweet Soybean Pudding ($4.50 - large) was delicious! Be sure to let them know to put the syrup on the side otherwise they combine it for you! The tofu was very soft, silky, and fresh. I was very relieved that the syrup wasn't too sweet since they combined it inside. The Soymilk ($4.25 - large) was very sweet and didn't have much of a soybean taste. It would have been better if it wasn't so sweet so I could taste more of the soybean. NOTE: they offer salty soymilk and soybean pudding but it's +$0.25 more than the sweet Soymilk and soybean pudding! The Peanut Milk ($4.25) was pretty good. It was very creamy and nutty! If you like peanut butter, then this is a must! It wasn't too sweet and it was very refreshing. Overall, I liked the soybean pudding more than the Soymilk and the prices were reasonable so I most likely will recommend and return!

The lady at the cashier was so sweet and friendly. She patiently introduced me to their menu and food, made recommendations. I'm very pleased by her customer service. It is a small to medium restaurant, nice and clean throughout. Very welcoming like a family restaurant. It was a to-go order and they packed the food pretty well so the noodles don't get soggy. The flavor is so rich with layers, beef is braised so tender and the portion is super generous. My family and I enjoyed everything very much. I can't wait to go back and try more.

But I ordered the pork intestine noodle soup because I don't see this on many menus. The flavor was average -- tastes familiar, but not something I would go out of my way for. The soup was weirdly lumpy -- I know it's supposed to be thickened with a corn starch slurry, but this was lumpy like someone didn't properly dissolve the starch in the slurry before adding it to the soup. Didn't really affect the taste but was not as smooth as I would've expected. I also ordered a side of braised kelp, which was ok but a bit sweeter than I like it. The staff was friendly and they were playing a Taiwanese song from 1989 that I heard when I was young, which adds to the nostalgia. It's not the best Taiwanese food I've had in LA but I'll probably come back to try their beef noodle soup. You know, for science.

I ordered the pork chop rice and the pork chop had a great crispy exterior and was very juicy as well.

My friend got the chicken chop rice and the portion was even bigger than the pork chop rice! I will come back to try that one. Our group also ordered the popcorn chicken and that was juicy as well.
