    Sri Lankan Ceylon Chai Latte
    Anh T.

    I came to this location of Cha Redefine and tried their Sri Lankan Ceylon Cha Latte. The tea had a bold, aromatic flavor that was clear even with the milk, while still being smooth and creamy. The tea flavor itself was not too overly sweet, and I finished the drink a lot faster than I would have liked. Loved this tea-forward drink!

    Cha Redefine does it again- their new guava drinks are so good. I'm a guava mega fan so I was so excited to see this new line. The guava tastes like real guava fruit, not artificial or overly sweet. And the guava paired so well with the matcha flavor. The matcha foam today was light in matcha flavor though, it had more cheese foam taste. The guava jelly was yummy and a good texture. Will order this again!!

    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.

    Charged for a large matcha but both drinks were the same exact size

    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!

    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.

    Blueberry Oat Matcha Latte
    Milan L.

    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.

    Chia seeds, beet juice, passionfruit seeds, and jasmine green tea
    Kevin B.

    They DESERVE their 10s for this one! I ordered a Chia seed, beet juice, passionfruit seed jasmine green tea. LIKE WHAT??? Y'all this was so good it didn't even make it to the car toooo good. I'm going to need them to make this as an IV drip and give it to STRAIGHT! Little Harry Potter nook of a shop with some nice customer service :)

    Chappuccino da hong pao
    Jenny Z.

    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!

    Matcha Matcha
    Hee K.

    Love their Matcha and Hojicha drinks! It is hard to find shops that carry hojicha drinks so I love that Cha Redefine sells 3 types of hojicha drinks. My favorite is Cha Cha Hojicha. Also love the Matcha Matcha. Shop is small but has an ample amount of seating both inside and outside. Staff is super friendly and quick.

    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.

    Sri Lanka cha latte w soy milk
    Trin H.

    |[ 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.

    Blueberry matcha , strawberry green tea , peach milk tea
    Brandy R.

    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.

    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.

I was stoked because I definitely wanted to try some things. Service: Honestly, the guy gave me good service, and was willing to make my popcorn chicken rice bowl and really appreciative the customer service. Space: The store is pretty small inside. It has a claw machine and also sell labubus! Frames with many famous Koreans visiting the place and with their autographs. Not much seating, wouldn't recommend this place to hang out. I ordered three things from the menu. Popcorn chicken rice bowl, passion fruit hibiscus tea and earl grey madeleines. Popcorn Chicken Rice Bowl: I loooooove popcorn chicken and with rice = the perfect combination. The rice was cooked perfectly and the chicken had that little crispy outside and tender on the inside. I appreciate the guy making it because I was so hungry and wanted to eat. Passionfruit Hibiscus Tea: There's a reason why it's one of their top 15 drinks by customers. I love the tanginess of passionfruit and the color from the hibiscus tea. It was definitely a refreshing drink that wasn't too sweet for me! Earl Grey Madeleines: Ahhhh this was baked to perfection and the earl grey filling was not too sweet. Loving the bright flavor of the bergamot citrus in the cream and wasn't too overpowering. What a duo I didn't know I needed. Parking: There is parking in the plaza but I'm sure it gets busier during the day. Go at night for a parking space and enjoy some refreshing drinks/food to end you day.

Strawberry Milk - Best best best strawberry boba drink I've ever had. - I normally don't like strawberries bc they might be sour or mushy and not in the good way but this was sweet and fresh!! I've never been disappointed with their drinks. -it does come with a clear boba and its unique. most places in LA do not have it and it pairs nicely with the strawberry milk! Mango Milk Tea -Subtle flavors of sweet sweet mango -refreshing and creamy -recommend if you love mango sticky rice hehe or mango desserts Oolong Milk Tea w/ honey boba and crème brûlée - fragrant and properly brewed. Most places over steep or understeep oolong. It can be bitter or watery but they did it right. The oolong was one of the best I've ever had. - I'm glad they had crème brûlée and honey boba as an option for topping. I love love love crème brûlée and most places don't offer it. The honey boba is also so great if you don't want that sugary brown sugar boba (there is still good tho but I will always prefer honey boba !!!)

When I asked to use it, I was told it required a key and that nobody had one. Hard to believe these employees work all day without a bathroom! If you provide a customer restroom, management should ensure employees can actually unlock it during business hours. RESPONSE TO THE OWNER: Your reply explains who maintains the restroom, but it doesn't address why I was denied access. The shared plaza restrooms are directly outside Sunright's rear glass door clearly visible and only a step away. Your employee told me the restroom required a key and that nobody had one. Obviously, Sunright's employees must use a restroom somewhere during their shifts, so who provides them access? Saying plaza management maintains the restrooms doesn't explain why nobody working at Sunright supposedly had a key or why it couldn't be provided to a paying customer. That feels like a dodge rather than an explanation.

Granted; it is a small Korean owned business so everything they do is with pride and care! I love coming here on a hot summer day/night because the boba is very chewy and delicious!

It's amazing, fresh, tangy, crisp and overall refreshing! I like to come here and avoid the big crowds, it's always great to find that hole in the wall dessert spot and this is it!
