    Hokkaido Milk Tea with Boba
    Ivy K.

    One of the better Boba shops in the area. The boba is soft and chewy and has the right bounce. When the boba hits just right, it makes or breaks a location. Their boba did not disappoint. I ordered the Hokkaido Milk Tea this time. I think I like their regular Black Milk Tea a little more. But it was good either way. Every time I've ordered from this place, the drink is scrumptious. The service is nice, efficient and fast and gets your order to you in a timely manner. They have a secret menu on the chalkboard, so you can order some specialty drinks that they have. They have macarons to order from too. A decent amount of seating, although they could replace some of their seating as its becoming dilapidated. It feels like you're in a home because of the couch, table, and board games. There's a parking lot for parking your car. The location is sort of hidden and you have to pay attention to the signs find it in a nondescript strip mall. But for San Pedro, I'm glad I have a place to go to for Boba drinks, and besides Boba Time. Boba Time has no seating.

    My go to post lagree matcha spot since it's right next to lagree studio. They make my matcha just the way I like it unsweetened with extra matcha but their matcha quality is alright like it just isn't strong enough and tastes way more milky as you can see by the color so it's def not the highest quality matcha but is also not the worse. It does the job for convenient post workout but nothing to write home about.

    Visited for the first time and had a great experience! The shop was decorated beautifully for Halloween, and they had a menu with special Halloween items! I tried the Fruity Pebble Smoothie (from the Halloween items menu) with boba, and absolutely loved it. I'm a fan of fruity pebble flavored desserts, and this hit the spot. Their menu and secret menu, posted on the wall were very unique and had so many flavors I want to come back to try! Service was great. The staff was friendly and worked hard to make the orders quickly. I visited on a weekday late afternoon, and there were a few people waiting before us, and several who came in after, so it was pretty busy! Definitely will be back again soon and often!

    Cali Milk Tea
    Lauren C.

    I went with their CaliTea Milk Tea since it was number 1 on their Top 5 list. Plus, I love milk tea. I wanted something to wake me up a little and this definitely did that. It actually woke me up a lot and lasted throughout the day/ night. Service was great. Fast and friendly. When I went, there were a bunch of people inside and people ahead of me in line. However, the line moved quickly. It's a great spot! I definitely want to come back and try other drinks here. Plenty of parking, but it is a busy parking lot; at least when I went. Would recommend if you're in the area. : )

    Tropic Osmanthus
    Jenn G.

    I am always on the look out for boba spots and finally got to try out Calitea! I'd spotted Calitea a few times and was quite curious about their drinks. I chose to get the Tropic Osmanthus. I thought the name was interesting and found out it is Osmanthus tea with lychee and guava. When I heard lychee and guava; I was definitely intrigued. My drink was $6.50 total. The drink itself was $5.90 and I paid an additional 60 cents for the lychee jelly. Overall the Tropic Osmanthus was a refreshing drink. It was my first time ever having Osmanthus tea and I could taste slight fruity and flowery tones. The lychee and guava flavors were there though a little light. I was happy that I added some lychee jelly to the drink. They gave a fair share of lychee and I thought it gave a nice sweet touch tot he drink. The drink was slightly on the pricey side for $6.50 but was overall glad to have checked this place out and try out Osmanthus tea for the first time.

    Chai notice

    The chai latte is amazing. I thought the order was wrong it had so much flavor. I returned the next morning and noticed the sign alerting of flavor. Have I been cheated my whole life with fake chai? Highly recommend! Very quiet and friendly coffee shop. Drinks are very high quality.

    Had to check this place out out of curiosity. It was a hot day and we wanted something refreshing to drink. There's quite a bit on their menu. You can design your own drink, or pick one of the boba flavors on the menu. They also serve coffee and espresso drinks if tea and boba aren't your thing! I decided on the mango kumquat while my sisters got rose green tea with boba and Cali milk tea (a mixture of two different teas). The teas were kind of light. Mine was still pretty sweet despite it being 50% sweetness. Was it Quality...ahem CaliTea? Nah. Not the best bubble tea I've had. But I did see a lot of families with their kids here, so it must appeal more to them. The staff was all super young. Maybe high school aged kids. Parking isn't too bad. It's located in a strip with a bunch of spaces to park in the parking lot. The space inside is pretty modern. There's a handful of tables and some folks were on their laptops and one family was sitting on a couch playing games. They do have a few tables outside too. They also sell baked goods and a few lunch items. They randomly sell candles too. LOL

    Brown sugar boba
    Rebecca S.

    Stopped in for a quick brown sugar boba (our favorite) yesterday. Tiger sugar is the best brown sugar boba we have had, ding tea is a close second, then CaliTea. The boba was delicious but it was on the sweeter side.

    seating
    Lauren B.

    The service was nice and there were a lot of spots for seating inside, but the tea itself tasted watered down, even after getting less ice. My friend had gotten a taro milk tea, which wasn't as thick as other taros that you find and also tasted watered down. Overall, wouldn't come to the business just to get tea unless I really wanted boba and it was the only option nearby.

La Cha x The Bowl currently has a second location in Hawthorne in addition to this flagship location in Torrance. The shop is known for its viral cracking chocolate shell boba cup. [Parking]: Easy parking within the plaza. [Atmosphere]: A very casual setup for this tea shop and customers can place their orders via one of two kiosks. One thing to note is that the tea shop plays fairly loud background music so it is hard to have a conversation unless you are sitting right next to the person you are talking to. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Strawberry Matcha W/ Milk Foam, Strawberry Taro Milk Tea, and Caramel Cheese Latte. Other featured items include Popcorn Chicken, Biscoff Shake, and Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. *** Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea (100% sweetness - $6.20): The drink was slightly too sweet for me, but the overall flavor was there. Chicken Teriyaki Bowl (Charbroiled Chicken Teriyaki + comes with white rice, chopped lettuce, macaroni salad and grilled fresh pineapple - $13.90): The bowl was surprisingly better than I had expected. The bowl had a slice of grilled pineapple and decent macaroni salad. I was actually able to split the bowl into two smaller meal portions. It was certainly a lot better than the teriyaki bowl from Flame Broiler. *** A solid 3.5-star for the drink and rice bowl. I personally slightly prefer their rice bowl over their drinks and overall this is a nice neighborhood tea shop to grab a quick meal or get a-okay drinks as there aren't too many tea shop options in this part of Torrance (closer to the city of Carson).

They have some cute names for drinks too! Nice place to stop by for boba / fruit tea drinks. I would probably just stick to the milk, fruit, or regular teas here.
