Boba Ave 8090 - Winter melon tea with grass jelly - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

An unsuspecting spot in an inner corner unit of the Yes Plaza in Roland heights. Inside is pretty surprisingly standard, I sort of thought a Taiwanese shop in this strip mall would have a more cute aesthetic. We ordered at one of the two tablet kiosks to the right upon entrance. You can customize the spice level for food and ice and sweetness levels for drinks. The fried tofu and chicken took a bit, but was well worth it. Medium spice was not spicy at all, which might be a disappointment if that's what you're looking for, but the flavor is not lacking at all. It came with their natural fermented yogurt as a dipping sauce on the side, which was rich and tasted like coconut cream. Our yuzu jasmine with grape jelly was so good. Adjusting the sweetness level to 75% was perfect for us. We didn't mix out drink and ended up having more of a grape flavor at the top that slowly turned more yuzu towards the bottom, a delicious and refreshing drink for a hot summer day. read more

Boba Ave 8090 - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

My daughters wanted to have popcorn chicken and takoyaki before going to the movies, so we went to the Boba Ave 8090 at the Yes Plaza on Colima and Fullerton in Rowland Heights. The interior was spacious, and they had snacks and bakery goods (Duke Bakery pastries) available to buy. We ordered from the kiosk ourselves and chose popcorn chicken ($7.95), takoyaki ($6.95), and a Brulee milk tea (approximately $6.45, which we upgraded to a large size). The popcorn chicken - they were very flavorful, maybe a bit salty, but they were crunchy, and we liked the dipping sauce. (8/10) Takoyaki was mediocre (average) (7/10). We've had better Takoyaki. Brulee milk tea - the portion size was huge for a large size, and the flavor of the milk tea was not bad. However, their boba was hard and overly dense. (4/10) They took a while to make the food and the drinks. The food and drink were mediocre, so I gave 3 stars. read more

1/10 Cheese Uji Matcha Tea Latte - LORD HAVE MERCY. This is the sweetest freaking drink I have ever had. This is the same drink I had from the Arcadia location but it tastes nothing like it. Don't get me wrong, if anyone loves a sweet drink it will be me but this drink tasted like they dumped a pound of sugar in it! Ew.. 4/10 Boba - These bobas are like half the size of normal sized bobas. They're also a bit dense from the jump. Also, they barely gave me any boba! Definitely not enough boba for this sized drink! 9/10 Popcorn Chicken - These were bomb asf. I especially love the portion size! 10/10 Fries - This was truly the only saving grace from this whole experience. Fries were freaking FIRE. Perfectly fried, crunchy on the outside, soft and gooey on the inside. 4/10 Service - Oh man do I have a mouth full to say about this place. First of all, the drink was literally undrinkable.. I informed the lady who handed me the drink and told her it is WAYY too sweet and if she can adjust it to less sweet. She clearly seemed annoyed that she had to remake the drink. I said thank you like 3x and no you're welcome or sorry or anything. 9/10 Cost - $6.79 Cheese Uji Matcha Tea Latte, with boba, and with tax read more

3.5 stars for this place. The pros: 1) It's open late and 2) The brulee milk tea was delicious. The cons: 1) The tables weren't wiped down, 2) It took a long time to get our drinks, and 3) There are no hot drink offerings on the menu. They do offer snacks and baked goods if you want a bit of food. Like many bubble tea places now, you order on a screen and wait for your drink to be made. There are limited tables inside, but people were hanging out outside as well. Parking can be tough as that plaza is super busy. read more

If you don't take a photo of the adorable Yes Plaza from the outside, you're being silly. It's so cute and there are some tables outside if you want to sit in the desert sun. Boba Ave 8090 has three locations around LA but this has to be the most adorable. Drinks took quite some time, but such is life at boba shops. I like that you can order everything on the touchscreen, then when it's ready they send a text. The tea here is great! And I love when tea shops have little plugs for their straw holes, that sounds kinda weird but check out the pic if you don't know what I mean. :) My friend and I both were really happy with our drinks. Sounds like I need to try the popcorn chicken the next time I'm in! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Their kiosk broke and charged me twice. No matter what I told the cashier he did not care. He kept saying that my transactions are "pending" but they literally took my money twice. Horrible customer service, I should've at least received my money back. Scammers. read more

Really bad experience here. I ordered popcorn chicken and a drink from the kiosk, but I had an online coupon, so I asked if I could reorder the popcorn chicken online and get a refund for the kiosk order. The staff said yes. We waited over 40 minutes, and they even gave food to customers who ordered after us. When we asked, they suddenly told us they had refunded the popcorn chicken and that we had to wait for the online order because they were busy. That made no sense, if that was the case, why didn't they at least give me the drink first since it wasn't refunded? In the end, I waited over an hour for the exact same popcorn chicken. The whole process was disorganized and poorly handled. On top of that, no one seemed to know how to process the refund properly. They just took my phone number and said it would take 3-4 business days, which didn't feel reliable at all. Very frustrating experience and terrible customer service. Updating my review because it got even worse. After waiting over an hour, I still didn't receive my popcorn chicken. When I asked again, they told me to wait another 15-20 minutes--the same thing they had already told me before. At that point, I finally canceled the order after wasting over an hour of my time. The whole situation was extremely disorganized. No one seemed to know what they were doing, and the communication was terrible. They kept giving the same excuses instead of actually fixing the problem. It honestly felt like they didn't care at all about customers' time. Completely unprofessional and poorly managed. Definitely one of the worst service experiences I've had. read more

Okay wow, this place is legit! I went mini golfing over the weekend and was craving for a snack afterwards. I opted for popcorn chicken and after reading multiple reviews about this place, I decided to give it a try. Let me just say $6.95 for a huge serving of popcorn chicken is a deal you can't miss. Not only was the serving large but the flavor was on point too. I only took one star off because they did not have sweet chili sauce but rather a white cream sauce (I thought it was whipped cream but I'm actually not sure). I ended up walking over to Tastea to buy the chili sauce and it paired much better. I already want another cup! read more

Finally visited again and they bought back the cups!(: The price for the popcorn chicken is now $7.95 but still the best deal in the area for the amount they give you. Service is the same, friendly but can be slow when busy. I usually get my order 20-30 mins. Could be because they're understaffed i don't know but I don't mind waiting since I usually come to stay a while and study. Thank you~ read more

Such a cool boba spot in Rowland Heights! I've never seen a place like this before. When you get to the front of the boba shop, it feels like a different state, like New York with the setup of the windows and sign. Love it! The drinks were solid. I got 100% sweet and it was perfect. :) Still subtle sweetness and I love me some grass jelly. It's easier to chew for me, compared to having boba. Popcorn chicken had a kick of spice and good crunch. You order your food at the kiosk and the server calls out your number. Courteous and helpful staff here. Would definitely come back! read more

ORDER popcorn chicken (4/5) the popcorn chicken here is a steal for only $7.62 after tax! the downside is they only have their house made sauce, which is sweet and creamy. i wish they had sweet chili sauce or other options. the mild here has a little kick to it. the chicken itself is cut into at least 1 inch pieces and the breading isn't too thick. SERVICE i always order on the kiosk so the ordering process is quick and easy. they get the orders out very efficiently too. AMBIANCE spacious inside with plenty of seating. read more

What a cute little Boba shop. Ordering was super quick on the do it yourself iPad thing-a-magiggy. My drink was delicious!!! I had the strawberry Mango slush with lychee jelly. So yummy and refreshing on a hot Cali day! There's a little section to purchase small snacks... I think it's charged by weight. Plenty of tables and seating inside and in the outside front patio. I highly recommend this place. So yummy!!! read more

I stopped by this boba shop to get a drink before picking up lunch at Honu. They have 2 order kiosks where you place an order and pay. They have several tables where you're able to enjoy your drinks and snacks as well as the outside tables shared with the other buisnesses. I saw that they had takoyaki and was curious. So I ordered takoyaki and a cheese jasmine green tea. The shop was pretty busy but it took less than 10 minutes to get the takoyaki and drink. The takoyaki was so good! It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It reminded me of takoyaki from Little Tokyo in Los Angeles. The tea was good. The cheese foam was light and not too sweet. Customer service was brief and friendly. I will definitely be returning to get my takoyaki craving satisfied. read more

Stopped by after grabbing a match latte next door. They employee was really nice and welcoming. I ordered just an order of popcorn chicken and it took about 10 mins to be ready.

The chicken could was perfectly cooked. Plenty of seating inside and outside. read more

We ordered 4 drinks. We waited for over an hour to get our order. We are waiting to see of they even got our order right...

They have ordering kiosks, which is fantastic! I've been wanting to try a Boba Ave 8090 for a while, but I live near a drive-through only one and the line is always insane. While this parking lot is a nightmare, you'll be able to find a spot if you look long enough. When I went in, the shop was full but only one staff member was working. I waited around 10 minutes for my drink. I got a brown sugar boba, and it was pretty good! There is plenty of seating as well. read more

Since the two San Gabriel locations have closed, I decided to visit the Rowland Heights establishment, and I am pleased to report that it maintains a high standard of quality. Although the menu has been consolidated from the San Gabriel branches, the tea remains excellent. Furthermore, the popcorn was exceptional, offering both superb taste and a generous portion. read more

Grabbed drinks here on a hot day. It's situated in the far back corner of the Yes Plaza, with parking availability that varies based on time of day. Drinks (4.5/5): We got their taro smoothie and their strawberry yogurt smoothie. The taro smoothie was rich and creamy, with ribbons of actual taro swirled in with the artificial purple stuff. Their strawberry yogurt smoothie legitimately had real strawberries and yogurt in it (and I know that sounds silly, but majority of yogurt drinks use yogurt flavored syrup). Overall, fresh, creamy and tasty! Service (3/5): Standard. You can order at the kiosks on the wall. I also bought bread from them and checking out at the counter was quick. Ambiance (3/5): Nothing too special about the place, but it was minimally yet tastefully decorated. Decent amount of seating for maybe 6 parties or so, but can't recall if they have free wifi or sockets to plug in and work. An aside: I like that they sell Duke's Bakery and have a pretty sweet (pun intended) variety at this place. The snack stand idea was also unique, and you can pick out different kinds of small snacks like quail eggs. Reminded me of what you'd find at Chinese supermarkets in Beijing where you pick and buy by the bag, so nice nostalgia factor there! read more

Service was terrible. Paid for a drink and the tablet didn't even work. A worker unplugged the whole thing cancelling my order and purchase information.

A simple shop with limited (but good selection of drinks). I particularly like this shop partnered with Duke's Bakery and offered some popular fresh baked pastries. We ordered: 1- Messy Sweet Potato Milk (3/5): It's literally milk smeared with sweet potatoes.

Overall, the prices are decent and worth a try. read more

Second time at this location. My son found it online and we stopped as we were in the area. This second time I got off with him to check it out. They have a computer where you order and can customize your drink however you'd like. I really like that you can choose how sweet you want it. The staff doesn't have much communication with you, the place is clean and it was full of people enjoying their drinks and just on their lap tops when we stopped by a few days ago during the week. They also have a few food options on the menu. I tried the same drink my son likes, the Oreo vanilla smoothie. I got it 75% sweet and it was really good and not sweet at all. I'll probably do 50% sweet next time. I don't like the boba balls but my son orders it 100% sweet and with brown sugar boba. I like this boba place and my son loves it. We will continue to stop by when out of town in the area. read more

overall score: B order: popcorn chicken 4/5 the popcorn chicken is very valuable. it costs $7.62 after taxes for a bucket and the chicken is not all tiny or too bready. although it's a huge portion, it is not filled up all the way to the top like the arcadia location. another thing is that the sauce is not good. i would have preffered it with sweet chili or something similar. the sauce they provide is some sort of cream which doesn't really suit the chicken that well. overall, it's solid popcorn chicken with emphasis on the chicken. only con is that it is not filled to the top and the sauce. service: food took awhile to come out, close to 15 minutes. you order on a kiosk so you don't really talk to the employee unless you have any questions. ambiance: this location is near the corner and the inside is spacious. when we went at around 8, it was pretty busy with most of the seats taken. read more

My drinks was good but the service was slow. Ambiance was very welcoming and clean bathroom.

I stumbled upon this boba spot in Rowland Heights and I was surprised with their delicious menu selections. It is located inside Yes Plaza with free parking, and they have indoor and outdoor seating. Their boba/snack menu is straight to the point and smaller than most boba places but the taste packs a punch. We ordered popcorn chicken ($6.95), takoyaki ($6.95), fried tofu ($5.45), and taro smoothie ($5.75). The snacks came in large portions and were very delicious. They also give you this small white cream dipping sauce. I wasn't sure for which snack it was supposed to be for, but I just dipped everything in it. It was quite addicting and I asked for more. The taro smoothie was perfectly blended and just had the right sweetness to it. This place is affordable, and the quality of their food/drinks are superb. Highly recommended! read more

There were barely any customers or staff when I walked into the store. The place has ample spaces but it lacks some aesthetic.

Boba was great with large portions. Service was fast and love how its a drive through. Great boba experience.

Glad that they opened a Boba Ave 8090 AGAIN in Rowland Heights since there was that one near the Phoenix/Cold Stone plaza that perished since it opened before COVID and especially with the recent closure of the other Boba Ave 8090 in SGV area. It's located in the back of Yes Plaza, so it's another option to get boba if you don't want to wait for the massive Tastea line. There's seating inside and the outdoor patio seating in the "courtyard" area in Yes Plaza. Despite being a cold March night, it was SUPER hot in the actual cafe so we ended up sitting outside. You order from their 2 tablet kiosks and they call out your order later. The menu seems a bit limited from what I remember from the other Boba Ave 8090 locations so I hope that they add more in the future. My friend and I ended up getting their Strawberry and Mango yogurt slushes, less sweet. It's made with the real fruit puree and the large size is comically huge, so it's a nice serving that doesn't break your bank through upgrading. I'm glad we got the sweetness adjustment since it was still pretty sweet with the sugar being toned down. I do like that they use a real fruit jam puree. Looking forward to new drink additions here. read more

For $7.62 after tax, you get a ton of popcorn chicken in a jumbo soda cup! 【QUICK TIPS】 # Boba Ave 8090 is in the far corner of Yes Plaza where the fake skyscrapers are. # They have such a great deal on their popcorn chicken. $7.62 for a mountain of them in a cup that's around the size of a Big Gulp. It's either between a large soda or a Big Gulp cup. I'm not completely sure because I don't drink soda. # The spicy level is true-to-burn...medium spicy is a true Asian medium spicy. Order mild if you just want a slight kick. As I kept munching on my medium spice popcorn chicken, my mouth was beginning to accumulate the burning. 【end QUICK TIPS】 I don't know about their drinks because I haven't tried them, but I'm always going to come back for their popcorn chicken from now on -- not going to bother with Tastea, Tenju, Tea Block, Summerfield, or Quickly anymore. read more
