We went on a Friday evening. It's a small but cute place with several tables. The girl who checked us out also made the drinks. She was professional. The wait was decent. We got two drinks: - thai tea mill tea with boba: kind of plain and less sweet than we usually have it. We usually like the "regular sweet" level so never change the sweetness, but if we knew, we would have added 25%. - Taro smoothie with boba: the texture, taste, and sweetness were perfect! - Boba: perfectly chewy and tasty. The place also offered other products like acai bowls, ice-cream, and froyo. read more

I used to be a regular customer at this boba shop, stopping in almost every day on my way home from work. Between my own drinks and drinks for family members, I would typically spend anywhere from $10 to $25 per day here. Unfortunately, the quality has become very inconsistent. Sometimes the drinks are great, but recently the boba has been terrible. For the last three days, the boba has been burnt, hard, and crispy. It feels like the same batch is being left out all day and served long after it should have been replaced. Yesterday, I ordered three drinks through DoorDash. I understand that ordering through a delivery service costs more, but I pay the extra charge because it saves time. One of the teas was ordered without ice because I have a one-hour commute home and didn't want watered-down tea. When I got home, I found that the cup was barely over half full. I know DoorDash includes a disclaimer that drinks without ice may not be filled to the top, but we're talking about tea here. Filling the cup properly would have cost very little, and receiving a drink that was less than three-quarters full felt like a slap in the face. Today, I decided to give them one last chance and ordered another drink online during my lunch break. Again, I paid extra for the convenience of ordering ahead because I don't have time to stand in line and wait. When I arrived at 11:30, I was told the boba wasn't ready yet. Not only did I not get what I ordered and paid for, but I ended up waiting while other customers were served. I had to return to work late, frustrated, and stuck with a tea without boba that I had overpaid for. After spending a significant amount of money here over time, I'm disappointed to say they've lost a loyal customer. Consistent quality and better customer service would go a long way. read more

I am usually not in this area much. This is a review from a neurodivergent perspective. The service and quality of my drink was offputting. Might consider updating this review if I ever come back with friends some point in the distant future after I've had a long enough break from this visit. I was deeply disappointed by my first visit here. Was in the area waiting to pick up someone after their appointment and needed to kill time. Loved the decor and chess set that was already set up at a table. I wound up occupying myself for 2 hours. This looks like a great hang out spot with friends. And like they have a lot of offerings. Even so, I got the strawberry smoothie because it's a safe choice for me when trying new places. I couldn't even finish a quarter of this drink. It didn't taste like strawberry at all. It tasted like syrupy artificial stuff one would usually order for kids. I came at a slow time and figured, maybe if I asked them to remake my drink in another smoothie flavor, it wouldn't be too much trouble since there were no other customers in the store at all. I came up to the lady who took my order and told her "I'm sorry, I don't like my drink. Is it alright if you make me another drink please?" Usually, most boba places oblige because they want you to try the menu to find the drink you really like so you can become a regular customer. She said oh! No problem, then proceeded to ring me up as if I was placing a brand new order. I was confused. I told her no, I'm asking you to replace this one that I'm having trouble enjoying. She just shrinked and said nooooooo sorryyyyyyy That's disappointing. I paid and tipped for this drink for nothing. Had to throw it away because it was giving me too many sensory issues. I walked away deciding to never come back. Trader Joe's lets you go back to exchange or get a refund if you try one of their products that you don't like. Tapioca Express has obliged this drink replacement request before. Happy Lemon has obliged before. Quickly employees have obliged before. Yun Tea lets you sample drinks so you don't wind up in this situation. I literally was the only customer in the store. There was no line. There was nobody waiting to place an order. And the answer was just no. I suggest making samples every now and then for customers to try before they buy whenever you can. And consider remaking drinks at no cost if a customer really does not like their drink. Customer retention is important. And this was an easy ask to accommodate. I'm unsure how good the rest of the menu was, but this first time experience literally and physically left a bad taste in my mouth. Highly advise that people avoid the strawberry smoothie and get anything else on the menu. Because if you don't like your drink, you're shit out of luck. Make your choice carefully. The soft serve was great! They only had vanilla at the time though. Out of the other flavors. Parking was easy thankfully. read more

Boba Love - Don't get the strawberry smoothie. This is the strawberry smoothie. Doesn't taste like strawberry. - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Service was awesome and desserts were delicious. Cute little place tucked away in Miramar and loved it! Good variety on the menu too.

I got the brown sugar. I think around $8 with boba. Boba is about $1 extra. It was really good. I got regular sweetness which was perfect when normally it's way too sweet at most places. I was going to get the crème brûlée but the girl working said it wasn't legit crème brûlée. It's just the foam. Friendly and fast service. Wouldn't think it was ask cute inside but it's nice. Would highly recommend. read more

My family and I have quickly become regulars at Boba Love. My favorite spot to get Açaí bowls & my husband recently tried the Vietnamese coffee and said it was amazing. The owner Zerr is so sweet! I like my açaí bowls a specific way and she has always been so accommodating and now she even knows my order the minute I walk in or order online. All the staff are very friendly and everything always comes out great. We also love the inside of the store and how cute it is. My daughter loves climbing on the different chairs and playing the games they have. 10/10 recommend Boba Love! read more

A nice boba place. Tasty flavors a bit over sweet. Located off the 15 on Miramar, boba love is a small boba place with some unique flavors. The store has space for 20 or so people. The decor is a collection of stuffed toys and anime. The menu has all the standard milk teas, fruit teas and açaí. The also have some cool specialties. I tried a normal milk tea and a taro horchata. Got both of them 50% sweet and they were still a bit overly sweet. The flavor was good but I might try even less sweet time. The boba was soft and fresh. The folks there was friendly and helpful. Good place to grab a boba if you're in the area. Just tune down the sweetness. read more

Tiger Thai was meh and too sweet. 6/21/25 I decided to try it since it was one of their recommended drinks. Took about 9 min to get my drink. I asked for less sweet but probably should have specified the sugar percentage. When I got it, the lip wasn't closed all the way, so it spilled onto my clothes :( Love the decorations inside! Great for photos. There are a few seats available. Good for groups. Turns out they also have karaoke! Only found out when I was about to leave. read more

Stopped by on a Friday evening and it was empty. Lots of seating, nice ambiance. Very friendly staff. The monster gelato waffle was good. Not the most amazing ice cream but the waffle was nice. The acai seemed like a good value and was tasty. Wish the menu had more options, but I'd go back to try some drinks. There aren't many dessert options around there. read more

I visited this spot because it was recommended by Yelp as the closest Boba spot nearby. I ordered the black milk tea with salted cheese and added Boba. To my surprise. I did not receive black milk tea, but instead black tea with milk added to the drink. Since this is not what I was expecting, I was definitely disappointed. However, The salted cheese foam added creaminess to the drink and The Boba is a nice sweetness and chewy. They have a lot of options on their menu, so I may try something else next time. read more

The lady at the front that made my drink was so sweet and kind. I stopped in for a quick caffeine fix and got a Vietnamese coffee. She said that she didn't add any additional sugar to her Vietnamese coffee and she was right not to do it- just the perfect amount of sweetness. I was feeling laggy after a whole weekend of festivities and workouts but I swear I could go back for round 2 after finishing that drink, wow! Great caffeine fix. This spot looks more geared for takeout but there are a few tables with games if you decided to stay and enjoy the drink read more

This cute little gem is just off the 15 and Miramar Road. I had the pleasure of meeting one of the new owners and he was super kind and taught me quite a bit about Boba that I did not know. They have açai bowls, frozen yogurt, Boba slushies, and a lot of other treats that seemed to have an unlimited amount of options to make your personalized drink or snack. The owner asked how sweet I would like it, which is always great as everyone has their own level of sweetness. It's super cute and Instagrammable. They have a tables, and a couple of board games like chess and Jenga. I will definitely be going back. read more

Let me start by saying I went here twice. The first time I ordered drinks for my coworkers and specified no sugar as they have diabetes. The man who made the drink added sugar, told the other lady (owner) that he DIDNT add sugar and served it. When I questioned it he said he didn't. WRONG. $8 drink wasted. Ok next time I go, we weren't given straws and for some reason, my cup had a broken top (cracked cup) and it spilled ALL OVER my car and pants. It stained my jeans and left me with a sticky mess. I called and told them what happened and the girl said, " sounds like you need a new lid." What!? I will never return or recommend this place read more

The Açaí was amazing the service was prompt and friendly. They gave us a complementary water cup with ice water. The shop was full of plants and nice ambiance. There's not too many places in Miramar or Miramesa for good Açaí but I have found my place . The bowls were certainly made with love and perfection. The açaí was frozen to perfection ! Next time I want to try the drinks! read more

Makes me a little sad to write this review. I'll count it as a singular not great experience. I ended up getting the Brown Sugar Brulee, got 25% sugar with boba, sorry I don't have pictures. I walked in asking for a lightly sweet drink, I was coming from the gym. Fault may also be my own for agreeing to that drink, but it tasted like it was a sugar bomb. I'm a fairly fit individual and I can say this drink was tailored made for the 11 year old child trying to stay up all night. All that to be said, the decorations in the place were beautiful, I'd probably recommended a different tabling, I think nice dark wood tables would do better than the steel metal. But probably wouldn't come again. read more

Ladies in the front were super kind and answered any questions I had about their drinks. Ordered the black milk tea with cheese foam and they had me try it before I committed to 50% sugar. Also let me sip my drink so she can have space for my lychee topping. Love that. Really enjoyed the tea flavor from the drink and the cheese foam was on point! Decor in the back was super cute and they had some chess boards on the table. I'll be around the area again (weekly) and I'm definitely coming back. read more

Boba Love - Fun decor - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Needed a refreshing drink after a fulfilling meal from Smackin Chamorro Grill. Good this was right next door. AMBIANCE: Parking: Plaza parking! Not too bad finding parking. Seating: Inside seating with room for about 20 people. Great for small groups. Vibes: Welcome to Mira Mesa, there's no downtown place really just a lot of plazas to choose from to eat and such. The spot itself is warm and welcoming. I enjoyed the R&B music, the art, and other decor. Great place to hang out and catch up with a friend. FOOD: Okinawa Love (Recommend) Milk tea, caramel mixed with crushes oreos. You have the choice of sweetness. I had it litely sweetened. All in all it was deeelish! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! Quick and friendly TL; DR OVERALL: 4 Stars! Creative flavors, reasonable prices, and a pleasant atmosphere. I know there are many boba spots but if you're in the area, this is a great sure thing. I wish Emmy and her business all the best! TIPS: * Other location in Murrieta read more

I'm happy we decided to walk around this little plaza waiting for our take out food next door. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the pleasure of having this boba drink. Boba Love welcomes you with kind faces and great options that I find are a little different than your typical boba joints. There is plenty of seating but the drawback is that I can see how on a busy day, you could potentially have a bad parking experience. I ordered the avocado matcha barley tea based on the employee's (felt like she was the owner - so nice) recommendations. I absolutely love this. Barley tea is my favorite tea and the combination of the matcha and avocado made this such a perfect combo. I'm now hoping we come back here often so I can always make a stop here. So good! Absolutely love this place. read more

Boba Love - My half finished avocado matcha barley tea - SO GOOD! - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

I visited on September 3 and ordered three drinks: one matcha and two milk tea bobas. One of the milk teas was ordered at 50% sweetness and the other at 100%. The boba pearls in my drink were undercooked, which made the texture difficult to chew, and the 50% sweet option still tasted overly sweet to me. I wasn't able to finish my drink because of the texture and sweetness. The shop itself looked clean and the service was quick, but based on this experience, the drinks did not meet my expectations read more

Found this cute place on yelp. Easy to find with a private parking lot. My daughter and I wanted boba but there are more options like açaí bowls and frozen yogurt with toppings. They also had chess on a few of the tables. Friendly customer service and our drinks were made in a timely manner. I got the lychee slush w/ lychee jellies and my daughter got the crème brûlée hearts. We both agreed that taste was average but cute place and cute cups. Would def try this place out again. read more

We wanted boba and stopped by as this shop came highly recommended by my friends. The staff were friendly and so quick. We ordered a taro milk tea with boba, a lychee fruit tea with popping lychee, and an açaí bowl. The worker was so helpful in explaining the different sweetness levels and flavors. The taro milk tea was perfect tasting and the lychee fruit tea was refreshing as well as those yummy popping bobas. We also took an açaí bowl home and it was so beautifully garnished. We loved the açaí bowl and will be back to enjoy the other bowls and try other drinks. The ambience was cute with whimsy and had a romantic theme to it. While we waited for our order, it was evident that the shop was well kept and clean. There were also games on the tables and a fun vibe in the place with other customers enjoying their drinks or waiting for their order. They offer a whole slew of drinks and also frozen yogurt but we'll try that out next time. We will definitely be back! read more

Boba Love, or more accurately Boba Love 2 since the original is located in Murrieta, has replaced a tanning business in a suite next door to a Guamanian eatery in Miramar. With the word 'Love' in its name, the first thing that struck me about the interior was a lot of red, pink, and orchid colors. There were plenty of stuffed animals on display and even a social media friendly wall of red roses. A worker was busy in the back kitchen washing dishes and glassware when I walked in. He didn't approach the service counter until another set of customers arrived after me. There were three menu screens, the first of which featured five acai bowls and an acai smoothie. The middle screen listed the smoothies, hot drinks, and protein drinks. The final flat panel contained the fruit teas, milk teas, and specialty drinks. I have an affinity for fruit teas so this time I selected a Dragon Fruit variety with boba added for $0.70. The drink came as a pink liquid to match the themed decor of the shop. The regular sweetness was fine with my palate while the pearls were cooked to a soft degree. Only a few tables were available for inside seating, and they were well spaced apart. Along the back wall were two self-service frozen yogurt machines. Fro yo wasn't even an item on any of the menus so I cannot comment on the price per ounce. Overall, my Boba Love experience was positive enough for a four star rating. read more

I stopped by this place when I was out mattress shopping on Miramar. It was a very small and cute shop, it had some Kawaii stuff. I was surprised since I thought the menu was very small and limited. I didn't even see the 'basic' toppings listed on the menu but then the lady flipped open the counter cover and they were all there. I think they will in time update their digital menu. I ended up getting the Thai Tea with boba. I was not a fan of the tea itself, it didn't taste as fresh to me. The boba were not soft and chewy either. I more and likely will give this place another shot since I normally try a place more than once until I decide if I'll go back. (unless the first time was super terrible where I know I will not ever go back) I am always willing to try new places in general, but if a boba shop is nearby I'll definitely give it a go. read more

I was waiting for my ride after returning my rental and decided to check out this boba shop out as it had indoor seats too. The location I went to is located in a little plaza next to a huge 24 Hour Fitness on Miramar Rd. There's a parking lot with ample stalls. I got their Winter Wonderland which consisted of wintermelon tea on the bottom and butterfly tea on top. That sound very intriguing! I ordered it with 50% sweetness like all my usual orders, but the worker was so sweet to warn me that 50% would still be really sweet. So we went down to 25%, and it was perfect! Grateful for her! She even said she could make it less sweet if it was still too sweet for me. The tea was initially aesthetically pleasing (peep at pic) but once I mixed it, it was all dark purple/brown HAHA. The drink was good tho! Refreshing. I mainly tasted the wintermelon tea with no butterfly tea flavor. Definitely a little gem away from the main towns. Great place to stop by for a drink or acai bowl! read more
