    Pork Belly Bun  (@ToshiEats on IG)
    Nick L.

    This place is known for their teas and desserts, so I was surprised by how much food they had. We tried the Pork Belly Bun, Taiwanese Beef Yakisoba, Pork Chop Noodle Soup, and Miso Salmon. The Pork Chop Noodle Soup was easily my favorite with a flavorful savory broth and crispy pork chop. For my drink, I got the Watermelon Juice with Strawberry Boba, which was refreshing and had the right amount of sweetness. We finished with the massive Summer Farm Snow Cake, loaded with milk snow, fresh fruit, blueberry jam, and condensed milk. Definitely a shareable dessert! The staff were friendly throughout our visit, and the atmosphere was casual, calm, and enjoyable. It was a nice spot to sit down, eat, and hang out for a bit. For a full video breakdown, check out my Reel on IG @ToshiEats

    Popcorn chicken bowl with plenty of chili powder. The serving size is pretty big.

    TL;DR: come for big portions of delicious Taiwanese food, don't eat in. Cute, medium-sized Taiwanese cafe with a variety of street and comfort foods. It is half gimmicky boba shop and half sit-down-and-eat restaurant; we only tried the latter. I'll preface by saying they seem understaffed, and it doesn't seem like their wait staff was given a lot to work with. It reads like a restaurant that's supposed to be counter order and self-seating, but has table service shoehorned in. You're going to have to assert yourself and ask to be helped. But the one person who helped us was enthusiastic, friendly, and patient. If you're craving Taiwanese food this is a very, very solid option. My favorite food in the world is popcorn chicken, and theirs is juicy, crispy, and satisfying. I had the popcorn chicken bowl and was surprised that it was served on top of a bowl of braised pork rice. The result was a homey, sweet, fatty bowl of love with some tangy sweet cucumbers to balance. Next time I'll ask for extra basil. My Taiwanese husband had the beef yakisoba, and he tells me it's nostalgic of the food he grew up eating in Songshan. I thought it could use a bit of salt. We rounded it off with bacon cabbage, which was wonderfully smoky and slightly sweet, and umami "wasabi" fries, which despite being just fries with takoyaki sauce, mayo, and bonito, hit the spot after a stressful work week. And it went down with a *huge* bottle of cold Taiwan beer. With massive portions of tasty food at pretty decent prices, this satisfies a craving we have a hard time fulfilling, and will definitely be back. Come in and leave a tip to support the wait staff; but for convenience, we'd suggest ordering takeout ahead and eating it in the mini park outside. The AI art on the menu is also off-putting.

    Popcorn chicken

    I love coming here for popcorn chicken and milk teas but they added more frozen desserts. Came here on 8/16 to get a popcorn chicken and a mango carriage. Place is very clean and has some seating not too much. Ac was not working was really hot in there! Service was good but severely understaffed had to wait to order and pay. I love coming here so i will wait every time. Popcorn chicken is always good and mango carriage is amazing so refreshing!

    A fun place to take the kids for boba drinks after meal at nearby Panda Express. There are two tablets located on the order counter for you to place drink orders (and food order) for take-outs. If you plan to dine-in, they will direct you to a table so you don't need to order at the counter. The popcorn chicken is a yummy treat and a good portion size. Stinky tofu was ok, not great, and the pork chop is a bit small. Kids enjoyed the self-serve drink. After you pay for the drink, the staff assists you with toppings selection and then gives you the cup so you can top it off with the drink(s) of your choice. You can ask for samples of the toppings with the staff and also ask for a sample cup to try the drinks. My kids think it's more fun than Yogurtland. :) Once the cup is filled with drink(s), then you carefully bring it back to the counter and staff will seal the top with the automated boba drink machine. Fun experience for boba drink lovers.

    This Class 302 location in Irvine is still here after 10+ years!!!!! (I surely do miss the OG Rowland Heights one RIP.) After a recent visit, they got an upgrade. The self-serve boba is still there. The menu is prettier, and food is more expensive. The food is prettier too. I was here because I missed Taiwanese shaved snow. Class 302 still does it the best. I love that they have flan or egg pudding options. Credit card/apple pay accepted Bathroom available Plenty of parking in the lot

    Very similar to a drink I use to get at orobae
    Heather C.

    The food here is great and I love the self serve drinks. The only reason why I gave this place a four was because you cannot adjust the sugar level for any of the drinks. The popcorn chicken is delicious and there's one drink that reminds me of a drink I use to get when Orobae was around. The drink at Class 302 that is my fave is the Phoenix oolong milk tea. They changed up the menu since the last time I came here and it has healthy options as well as more selection on the menu. Fun tip: enter a fun name for your order name on the kiosk!!!

    Menu 5/2026

    Ever After closed down and combined its menu to this class 302 location. I was excited to see the Ever After menu items here since I frequently went to them, so was interested to see how this compares. I got the Black sesame chicken fried rice which tasted really good! It was on the oily side though because of the sesame oil so I'll probably try their other options next time. I also got the popcorn chicken rice which came with the braised pork sauce (which I got on the side). Flavor was great, chicken was nice and juicy with a thin layer of breading. Service was great too, we got served rather quickly and food came out promptly as well. Their drink selection is still the self serve, and you can still ask for sample cups to try. I believe they also brought some drinks from Ever After to here as I didn't see them before. I'm excited to come back again and try their other menu items. This place definitely got a much needed upgrade after the renovation!

    Taiwanese shaved ice cream
    Megan L.

    We had dinner in the area and came here for their shaved ice. We loved going to Ever After so we were glad that they brought the menu items to this location. Tried the Taiwanese shaved ice and it was good. We had mochi, boba, strawberry, peanuts and red bean! All so yummy for a hot day! Service was also great! They're attentive and bring water and cups right when you get seated!

    Salty Yolk Chicken Porridge
    Amy L.

    Seems like they're a combination of the old class 302 and ever after (which recently closed). I usually go for the self-serve boba tea, but decided to have a quick meal this time. There are dog friendly items on the menu and healthy variations of some homey dishes. I really enjoyed the salted egg yolk and chicken porridge!! Not something you can find in other restaurants. Not a big fan of their popcorn chicken, unfortunately. I would come back to try their other dishes.

    Class 302 Tea Cafe, 13252 Jamboree Rd, Irvine, CA92602. Taiwanese, Cafe, Boba. First time here. Conveniently located at the Irvine/Tustin "Marketplace". Lots of shops and nice place to hang out. Nicely renovated and clean cafe with boba stations within the cafe. The servers are nice and friendly. Food didn't take too long to come. I came here specifically to try the stinky tofu but was a little disappointed because it was very salty. The Pork Hock Mee Sua, however, was good and tasty. The other items that we tried were just ok. Nothing stood out. Prices were slightly on the higher side, but portion was huge. Dessert was so huge that 4 people could share a portion. I was told that the Beef Noodle Soup and Porridge are good. Maybe I'll try those next time. ~ Stinky tofu ~ Pork Hock Mee Sua ~ Crispy Pork Chop Rice ~ Spicy Shrimp and Pork Wonton ~ Braised Pork Rice ~ Matcha Taro Red Bean Ice Cream.

    Summer snow ice
    Leslie T.

    Ordered the summer fruit snow ice, blueberry sauce, milk base snow ice. It was very delicious and not too sweet. Egg pudding on top. Very nice portion to share among party of 4. Very friendly staff and even allowed my dog inside. They have a dog menu which I didn't know about. Would definitely come back to try other things!

    Matcha and oat milk tea
    Hailey F.

    Class 302 is just a gem. Friendly service, cute and clean interior, good number of seats optimized for the small cozy space. We tried their oyster pancakes -- yum! -- and the cucumber salad, the matcha crème brûlée, and the oat milk tea. I love that they have an oat milk option, since I am allergic to dairy. Their boba is self-serve. We will definitely go back again, and a big thanks to the awesome staff who always work so hard.

    Strawberry Matcha
    Mimi B.

    Great place for a sweet treat! I love that the boba bar is self serve and I've never seen this concept before. They also have non-dairy options and slushies! I had this Strawberry Matcha dessert and it was great! I loved all of the flavors, the puddings, and fresh fruit that were put into this dessert. There's lots of seating inside and outside and service was quick and helpful. I'll definitely be back!

    Perfect pick me up - matcha boba, crispy chicken and refreshing cucumber

Well this place is pretty similar, they have your typical pork chop rice with all the fixins, the pork is on the thinner side but it does taste good! Crispy on the outside, and a hint of slight savory sour taste to it. I tried the pork noodle, and it was good as well! It would not be the best experience I had, but the flavor is enough to invite me to come back for more!

Fresh taro mixed with real tea, perfectly balanced, and not overly sweet. I would literally come here just for the drinks. If you love boba, you need to try them. Just be prepared to wait because this place gets BUSY. Lunchtime was packed, and we came around 3 PM and were lucky to get a spot. Everything was so satisfying without feeling overly heavy afterward. Definitely one of my new favorite finds and a place I'll be coming back to again and again.
