One of my favorite tea spots in Ktown. The osmanthus oolong with vanilla foam is my go-to! The osmanthus and oolong balance is perfect, you get strong tea flavor without being overpowered by the osmanthus. The vanilla foam is thick and sweet. Tried the chia seed passion beet today- my new favorite! So refreshing in this heat. Didn't get any jasmine tea flavor but there was a good balance of passion fruit and beet flavor, neither overpowered the other. There are real passion fruit seeds in it as well. The chia seed was a bit clumpy all at the bottom Their Hojicha foam is great too, strong Hojicha flavor Currently they're doing a promotion for 50% off drinks in Tuesdays, not sure how long that will continue for read more

Occupying a space in Ktown where many other cafes and restaurants resided, hence they shared a sizable parking space. It's self-service at $4 so probably if you're not planning to stay long better find street one. The space wasn't gigantic, yet pretty cozy for quick fun drink stop. We pre-ordered online yet still needed to wait for good 10 minutes for our drinks as they seemed to be kinda busy. Admittedly the price was kinda steep compared relatively to similar drinks, but we're really pleased by our Da Hong Pao Chappucino and Matcha Matcha, their version of Da Hong Pao Milk Tea with creamy foam and matcha latte with matcha cream top. The milk tea had bold tea flavor and the creaminess was just right. We fancied not too milky one and this suited us well. They also used ceremonial grade matcha and the color could tell it's a good one. Besides, I loved that the matcha cream came slightly salty, giving that fun sweet and salty twist. read more

I had came to this Cha Redefine due to winning their giveaway online! For this location though, I would recommend to go to another location just due to a struggle with parking. They do have a parking lot; however, the time I had went was full. I had received 3 drinks from their peach and mangosteen series! Service was great and everyone was super nice! Based on drinking their drinks, they were super fruity and I did taste more of the peach flavor than the mangosteen! Yet, they were still very tasty and binge worthy to drink!!! I would definitely recommend this to any boba connoisseur! But be wary of parking! Tip: There's no restrooms in the store! The store is a bit small so I don't recommend this as a place to hangout for a long time. read more

7.12.26 - saw that this place was in the same plaza as KazuNori so we walked over after lunch. Thought the name was a bit strange but the photos of the drinks looked good! The place is small but there was seating available I saw a couple of different ones on the menu that sounded tasty. I ended up going with the Matcha Matcha, their number 1 drink, and my cousin went with the Mango Mango, their number 2 drink. Loved my drink! They use high quality matcha here and you can really taste it. Also loved the matcha cheese foam in it. I would recommend this choice. The only issue I had was that I ordered a large and my cousin ordered a small. I was even charged for a large as well but they both came out the same size. I didn't realize this til much later though. $20 for 2 small sized drinks is a lot! read more

With the weather getting hotter and hotter, I was looking for a refreshing drink to help cool down. This place is quite small inside. It feels more like a grab and go place rather than a sit down and talk/study since there's not much room. While the drink definitely helped cool down, it definitely was not a very impressive drink. I got the mango mango and there definitely was ~mango~. There were many chunks that were too big to go up the bit straw, which made it so there was just a lot of giant mango chunks at the bottom. I was it was a bit more of a cohesive drink or at least smaller chunks. Other than that, the service was fast as there wasn't many people, but I don't think I would come back again. read more

I believe this used to be the location of Tiger Tea - so we were initially disappointed when we learned that the store changed. We gave it a try anyway... I ordered the Blueberry Oat Milk Matcha - it didn't sound like those things would go well together but the hint of blueberry blended well with the matcha. I would order it again. There was no wait on a Friday afternoon, and it was conveniently located next to Quarters where we had lunch. We took our time and enjoyed our drinks at the long communal table, and browsed through their delicate selection of tea merchandise. The place itself is a tiny, but there are plenty of seating outside. I don't know if I would come here just for the drink, but I would definitely grab a drink if I happen to dine nearby. read more

Sydney went above and beyond for us. My girlfriend and I visited for the first time a few weeks ago. We're both vegan, and Sydney was well-versed in which drinks were vegan, and how the non-vegan ones could be modified to make vegan. Also, I'd like to add that it was incredibly busy that day, and I know how frustrating it can be to be asked a billion questions at the register, so we truly appreciate you being so patient and helpful. Thanks to you, we found our new favorite drinks. We go multiple times a week now! (: Keep in mind, this store is located within a Koreatown hot spot, and it's ALWAYS busy. Even when it's seemingly empty inside, the staff seem swamped with online orders. The wait is longer than your typical boba shop/cafe (~10 minutes). But each drink seems to be meticulously crafted and they focus on quality, so it's definitely worth the wait. read more

It was my first time trying Cha in general and since we were in the area and had just eaten lunch, I needed a drink. They have a pay lot, its like $10 or something like that but I just found street parking, took a while but I wasn't gonna pay $10 to park for like 5 minutes lol. I ordered a few drinks from their new peach/mangosteen menu. SO REFRESHING. the shop itself is so cute and had a few seats but there's also a few tables outside. It did take a bit for the drinks to come out, there was a guy waiting besides me for a drink pick up and he said he was already there for 10 minutes. read more

Craved some milk tea so I tried their da hong pao chappuccino in regular size with no ice and 25% sugar and it was delicious. A perfect blend of tea and whole creamy milk. Surprisingly really sweet too already. I tried my friend's refreshing peach tea and it was delicious as well also at 25% sugar. There wasn't really any service since you order yourself on the kiosk and I don't even think they called my number when my drink was ready so it was sitting there for quite a while as I wondered what was taking so long. The inside was clean with plenty of seating and just overall nice vibes to grab drinks and catch up with friends or chat. The drink was a bit on the pricier side for $7 with no toppings being just milk and tea, but it did taste refreshing and nicely earthy. They have a large selection of drinks available from their milk teas, to non caffeinated, to fruity teas, and their specials like rice lychee drinks. Would recommend stopping by here for a good "hits the spot" milk tea if you don't mind the higher price! read more

I was in the area and found this boba spot on Yelp, so I decided to give it a try. The girl working Saturday morning was incredibly sweet and took the time to patiently explain each drink. I kept it simple and ordered the iced Sri Lanka Ceylon latte with boba and no roasted pecan (cause I hate pecans). The drink was smooth and well-balanced, with no overpowering flavors, and the boba added a fun touch. I'd definitely come back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

|[ h m m ]| Tried the highly praised Sri Lanka cha latte w soy milk and tea jelly (no sugar) and sadly wasn't up to par with any strong tea taste to me 3/5. IMO good milk tea does not need to be drowned out in sugar to be "good", in fact, it should be amazing because of the tea aroma. The tea flavor was too light for me and tasted like tea flavored water. The nutty topping and tea jelly in the drink was good though! Tbh - I think the high reviews are mostly due to the high cream and sugar/sweetness rather than the tea quality, which is fine, but I'm just rly picky about tea and don't like anything to be super sweet lol. |[ n o t e s ]| They initially made the drink wrong (it had sugar when I asked for none) so we had to go back, and parking is HARD-- it's a small lot w valet but luckily they let us park to run in to have the order corrected. Busy tea shop I think where tiger sugar used to be. Ambiance was usual ktown busy. Open to trying again if they improve the flavors without relying on sugar more, or maybe I'll try a different drink if I come back. read more

Even though I received the wrong order, I decided to just try the one they had already made for me. It was a good choice made. I drank the strawberry green tea. It came in blended ice. It was refreshing and definitely had the perfect amount of flavor to not over power the actual tea (: Side note: parking is hard to find at this small plaza. read more

Got drinks from the Hojicha series and it was pretty mid imo. Hojicha had no depth, and it just tasted like milk. Wouldn't get again. Around closing on a Thursday, there was also this sewage stench inside that was nearly unbearable... Thankfully there are plenty of tables outside to enjoy or drinks. Would probably give this place another try for other drinks. read more

A small shop where tiger sugar used to be. The staff was friendly and drinks came out quickly and very pretty! I love black sesame so had to try one of those drinks and it did not dissapoint. The black sesame mochi drink was a really nice sweet treat. I also got the matcha which was strong and a great flavor! I would absolutely order again when back in Ktown! read more

This place rocks!!! Located in the same plaza as several KBBQ places, this new boba shop is poppin. I love how vast the menu is, and that they also carry a wide variety of non milk tea options. Everyone will find something they like here! I got their Black Sesame mochi smoothie and it was one of the best drinks I've ever had. It was also probably like 1000 calories lol. But the little white mochi balls in the drink were reminscent of boba, but a million times better. I think I got it at 50 or 75% sweetness and it was SO good, dialing back the sweetness let the natural fragrance of the black sesame shine. Service was fast and good! There's some outdoor seating area right in front, and also inside. I think about this drink all the time. I must go back!! read more

Came here yesterday after having kbbq next door. The interior is on the smaller side but very beautiful with the neon lights and modern furniture. There's a tablet to order right when you walk in. One of the staff members asked if I had any questions about the menu and let me sampled the barley popping boba when I asked about the Poppin' Milk Tea. Staff was very friendly. I ended up ordering the Sri Lanka Ceylon Cha Latte and added boba. I probably could've done without the whipped cream. I wished the drink was a little more tea forward but overall, it was good. read more

I came here to meet up with a friend! The store was not too packed and I really liked the decoration inside. There were a couple of seating options inside but it looks more like a grab and go situation. I ordered the refreshing peach chappuccino with 50% sweet and oat milk. It was delicious, i am a huge fan of oolong and the peachy notes of this drink paired wonderfully with it! It tasted like the oolong was infused with the peach juices. I wish I had a cha redefine near where I live. read more

I really like the boba drinks at Cha Redefine and I'm a big fan of hojicha. So was very excited to try their seasonal hijocha drinks. The 1st drink I tried was the Cha Cha Hojicha, which is tea with rice mochi, cheese milk, milk and oat. The 2nd drink was the Hojicha Einspanner, which is tea with cold foam, milk, and crispy rice puff. Between the two, I highly preferred the Einspanner. The drink was well balanced, delicious and yummy in the roasted nutty flavor. Staff was nice and friendly. read more

The Service: Jolie was taking my order at the counter. She gave great recommendations since it was my first visit. I was watching her preparing the order.... super efficient! Excellent service! They have self-serve kiosk as well. There are seating area inside & outside the store. If you are getting it to-go, not only they have cup holder, they have insulated to-go bag too. So thoughtful! The Drinks: Well.... They are more than just "drinks"! They are totally desserts to me. Lately it is so hot here in LA, we need something refreshing to cool it down. We were so glad we found this place. Mango Mango, in addition to the mango puree, they even use real mango chunks! We found boba too. We pour it in the bowl & eat it with the spoon that's how much surprises in the drink. Perfect summer dessert!! Mochi Strawberry, love the mochi, love the texture! Can never go wrong with strawberry flavor. Matcha Tornado, how cute they name this drink! Taro & Matcha mixture. Taro is one of my favorite Asian desserts. What a great combination. Blueberry Matcha Latte, I love they have so many fruity flavors. Their creativity is impressive. The Parking: Valet parking at their little Plaza (with fee). Or street parking on Alexandria Ave (free). read more

Grand Opening at Cha Redefine! I stopped by Cha Redefine today for their grand opening and took full advantage of their BOGO promo. I tried the Cha Cha Peachy and the Coco Popcorn Latte--and on top of that, I got super lucky and won an $80 gift card from their bingo-style ball dispenser game! Cha Cha Peachy - 9/10 I ordered it half-sweet, which was perfect. I'm a big fan of frosty fruit teas with foam, and this one hit the spot. The real peach pieces at the bottom were a nice touch, and the size was comparable to other popular boba shops like Sunright. The only drawback is the price--$8.50 is a bit steep. Coco Popcorn Latte - 7/10 Flavor-wise, it was tasty and unique, but the size was noticeably smaller--about a third less than the Cha Cha Peachy. At $7.50, it felt pricey for what you get, though it was definitely worth trying with the BOGO promo. Parking If you order through their app and let the parking lot attendants know, parking is free. Huge bonus if you're planning a visit! Service The staff were friendly, patient, and helpful. They answered my questions about the drinks, and one of them recommended the Coco Popcorn Latte for my dad, which he ended up enjoying. I also appreciated the lady running the bingo dispenser--she even moved out of the way so I could snap a photo of the shop. Super considerate! Overall: 10/10 A fun grand opening experience with solid drinks, great service, and a little extra luck on my side. read more

Love that this location opened up! Was so sad when the DTLA location closed down. I think all their mochi drinks are so good. The milky texture of the mochi balances the flavors of whatever drink you get. I've gotten mango mochi and a seasonal sesame mochi before. The matcha rice einspanner is good too. The vanilla cold foam is reminiscent of marshmallow fluff. Yum! Mixing is def necessary to make sure it's evenly sweet. read more

I was in the area and noticed a boba spot I hadn't seen the last time I was here. My first choice of drink wasn't available for some reason--out of strawberry? or something.

I would come back and try again next time. My two russian friends thought it was good-- I wouldn't trust their taste buds tho.
