Lots of parking and shared with other establishments. They serve both small bites and drinks. The snack set has really good value because of its portion and pairing. Offers free wifi and a quiet environment for work or study. Restrooms are cleaned and well maintained. I had the creme brulee boba milk, and for the happy hour combo (for mom) i got it with a jasmine tea and the popcorn mushroom- just the right amount if sweet and saltiness. Great place overall! read more

Comika Boba House was our first stop to redeem from our SGV Boba Passport. The redemption was for one free fruit tea or one free boba milk tea. I opted for the Taro Boba Milk Tea with oat. My husband got the Oreo Boba Milk Tea with oat. The drinks only took a few minutes to prepare. Be sure to mix well. If you don't remember to do so, the cashier will remind you. My drink was yummy! I was impressed with how well the boba was cooked and tasted. I hardly ever get boba in my milk teas anymore, I was glad I didn't ask to take it out. It was coated in brown sugar, or at least that's what it tasted like to me. The taro flavor still came through, despite the boba being sweet. It was delicious, subtlety sweet, and easy to mix. I really enjoyed it! I finished my drink before my husband. Comika is a spacious location and very quiet. They have a few tables and a shared public restroom. You order at the counter, there's no kiosk. The cashier will help explain which drinks apply to the passport. Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza. It was easy to find on a Sunday afternoon. This is an easy recommendation. I would love to come back and try their regular drinks. Thank you, Comika Boba House! See you again soon! read more

We used Comika Boba's catering service for our daughter's graduation party and I cannot recommend them enough! They came fully prepared to serve 100+ guests and did not run out of anything. We chose 3 drinks, strawberry matcha, taro boba milk, and Thai tea. Everyone was ranting about the delicious handcrafted drinks and loved their positive vibes and friendly service. And another thing: THE BOBA WAS SO FRESH. The personalized menu was such an adorable touch. Thank you SO MUCH for helping to make our event so memorable. read more

Comika Boba House (El Monte) is not bad. I ordered the Honey Milk Tea ($5.50) with Boba (no extra cost). It's unmemorable, but it's a "good enough" budget drink. I enjoyed the flat tea taste; however, I disliked those boba pearls. The boba had the texture of gummy, melted marshmallows. I liked its sweetness, but they were not bouncy nor perky. Unfortunately, as time progressed, the boba started to grow rigid and rubbery. I arrived at Comika Boba House (El Monte) on Wednesday (around 1:02PM). Parking is simple. There's a busy, competitive customer lot. I quickly found a parking spot. Staff is pleasant and welcoming. Staff worked quickly and diligently. When finished, Staff speedily moves to the back. My drink took three minutes and 25 seconds. As mentioned, I ordered the Honey Milk Tea ($5.50) with Boba (no extra cost). The drink is not bad. It's unmemorable, but it's also thirsty quenching, big, & very affordable. It's a harmless drink. My biggest gripe was its bad boba pearls. If I ever returned, I wouldn't touch that poorly prepared boba. At the very least, the drink is definitely a little better than tea prepped at a McDonalds. On ambiance, Comika Boba House (El Monte) is a breath of fresh, welcomed air. This business is a GOOD study/work spot. It's clean, comfortable, and has a cute dog aesthetic. There's customer internet with password; details are displayed on the wall. Also, there's about four electrical outlets. There's a gender neutral restroom for customers, and there's an appreciated Game Corner. The Game Corner includes Settlers of Catan, Chess, Connect 4, Uno Cards, and more. In addition, Comika Boba House (El Monte) is well-ventilated and plays clear instrumental music. The location has about six tables. It's a very comfortable spot for locals to work, study, and gather. Overall, Comika Boba House (El Monte) is not bad. It's a GOOD place for local students to study/work/chat. It's also a solid BUDGET spot for locals. Although this place is not unique nor memorable, it serves a good, helpful purpose for the community. 4.3 out of 5 read more

I'd give Comika Boba 4 stars. The overall experience was pleasant, but I wasn't especially impressed with the drinks. The flavors didn't quite stand out to me compared to other boba spots I've tried. That said, the ambiance was really nice, there was plenty of parking, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. It's a good spot to hang out and enjoy the atmosphere, but the drinks could use a little more wow factor. read more

Comika is somewhat new, and had their soft opening some time in March. It's located in the same plaza as Ocean Bo dim sum, and the large parking lot sometimes does fill up. The name Comika, from what I heard, is taken from the last 2 letters of their 3 dogs: Coco, Lumi and Luka. On the wall near the rear, there are many photos of their pups, plus some of other fur babies. Their menu is posted on the wall by the counter. Tables can seat 2 to 4 and there are some board games in a shelf in the back, which gives the impression it's a cool place to hang out. Drinks: the mango and strawberry cloudies are very good at 50% sweetness. They're fruity, smooth and refreshing. The Coco, which is brown sugar boba milk with cheese foam is also good, but need to be stirred and sipped with the lid off. Side note, these aren't the best lids as they capture the drink and leak everywhere once you take the lid off. I also tried their Vietnamese coffee, and have to say it was one of the weakest I've had. Even with light ice, it wasn't bold at all. It's a nice spot to grab a drink and/ or snack. I would recommend the cloudies, but not the Viet coffee if you like 'em strong and bold. read more

Feeling conflicted because their popcorn chicken is so good! My sister and I have been coming by more since we live nearby. Popcorn chicken with boba can never do you wrong. My go-to in this area for popcorn chicken honestly has been Corner Beef in the same plaza, but it was delicious. Staff working at that day was really kind and gave us a sample of a new drink they're developing. Y'all are doin gr8 read more

I found out about this spot from word of mouth! Such a great boba spot! The strawberry and mango boba were so good both tasted like they were made with homemade syrup! The shop has a cute dog theme, and I'm pretty sure the dogs featured are the owners I think they were even there when I visited, which made the experience even better. The space is modern, clean, and really inviting. Prices are affordable, they have WiFi if you want to get some work done, and even games if you're just there to hang out with friends. Definitely coming back! read more

(Review based on 3.5 stars) Comika Boba House is the newest boba tea house in this plaza, on this side of El Monte. Located in the same plaza as LA Houseware and Corner Beef Noodle House, specifically next door to Ocean Bo Dim Sum Cafe. There is shared parking in the plaza. Comika Boba House is named after the owners' 3 shih tzus, Coco, Lumi and Luka. You can see a cute cartoon version on them on the menus. But if you want to see a photo of the actual 3, you will find them in the unisex restroom. My husband and I stopped by this tea house this past Saturday, taking advantage of their grand opening for the buy one get one free drink special. We found parking and walked in a little before 3:30 pm. We were greeted when we came in and ended up ordering the following: The Lumi, $6.50 prior to tax- This drink is a green tea made with mixed fruit and chia seeds. My husband ordered this drink to be made with 0% sugar and no ice. My husband did not like this drink very much because the chia seeds were not mixed in and felt it was way too much in the drink itself. He also didn't think the drink was was refreshing and felt the drink was watered down. I didn't try any of his drink. The Luka, 6.50 prior to tax- This drink is a strawberry shortcake cloud, made with "house milk" and a strawberry puree. I ordered this drink to be made with 25% sweetener. If I was to order this next time, I would order this as 0% sweetener since the strawberry puree does add sweetness, which the employee who took my order did warn me. I thought this drink was good but a little on the sweeter side for myself. This drink it s blended drink and was nice for the hot day that we came. --------------------------------- (Total= $7.20 after tax and special buy one get one free grand opening special) Wait time for our drinks was ~12 minutes. There are a few small tables with chairs. We just ended up sitting and relaxing a bit while we were here. I really like the cute logo and the meaning behind the name. But honestly, I probably wouldn't come back, as I am not normally in this area. But I do wish this business all the best and hope they will make it (as this location has been a few other tea houses in the past). read more

Very clean and cute boba place that is dog friendly. I got the chia seed fruit tea with lychee jelly and found they put so many slices of limes it took a bunch of volume out of the tea and the seeds were not pleasant to find as I'm taking sips of my drink. It was like a whole lime they put in my drink! One or two slices I get, the amount didn't add but rather took away from enjoyment. Flavor was fine and I was glad I can get options of light sweetness and light ice. No wait time, as I went 30 minutes before closing. read more

Came to grab some tea after work and I got the brown sugar milk tea, it wasn't super sweet but I lowkey wanted that sugar, but that's just me. I do prefer the coco one of their signatures! It's good! They serve snacks too, my son really liked their fries. We ordered it mild not too spicy. I often stop by when picking up vapes next door. The guys at the cash register is really helpful and is a fairly quiet and clean inside. read more

This boba spot has changed hands a few times. I noticed they were in soft opening and decided to check it out since it replaced Mana Tea House and the boba shop that came after it. The service was very friendly, they explained their drinks to us and mentioned that many more items will be coming soon. We ended up ordering their signature drink named after the owner's dog, "The Luka." It was quite tasty, though even at 25% sweetness it was still pretty sweet, so I think 0% would probably be just right. It felt almost like a dessert, very milkshake-like, but overall we enjoyed it. I really hope this spot survives since we're always in the area. They mentioned fried items coming in the future, and I'm especially looking forward to when they open their kitchen and start making popcorn chicken. read more

This spot just opened. So let's see if they're pretty good eh or ew. I got their signature Luka drink and popcorn chicken to try. The Luka was perfectly sweet and like the flavor of strawberry ice cream plus how a boba shop smells but in slush form. The popcorn chicken had some light fried basil, was decently crisp, really savory, juicy, tender, and a bit spicy. Overall this place is lowkey pretty good. Luka $6.50 Popcorn chicken $8.99 read more

Ready to come again. Enjoyed their fruity drinks, specifically the Lumi. The chia seeds made it a little special. There is a good amount of space to sit. The dog theme is very cute. Place is clean. Will definitely go again. read more

Love Comika!!! The matcha latte was both creamy and earthy at the same time, and the strawberry added a really nice sweetness to the drink. I thought the fried tofu would be pretty standard to other boba shops, but this one was pillowy soft on the inside, and perfectly crispy on the outside! I got it mild spicy and it was great :) Plenty of seating and very clean interior too! read more

I'm reviewing just the popcorn chicken only. It took about 15 minutes for it to be ready but it was worth the wait! The popcorn chicken was definitely made fresh to order, hot and delicious. Perfectly cooked with crispy batter. The seasoning was close to authentic Taiwanese spice, and missing the thai basil but other than that it was pretty dang good! read more

cutie new boba shop! love the vibes and cozy and modern aesthetic. very clean and spacious and plenty of tables - great for students to study at or to hang out and play table games. music isn't too loud, which is a plus! ordered the luka at 25% sweet (I love a good blended drink) and got hubs the lumi. luka was perfectly blended and the perfect sweetness (I order 75% at other tea shops). the salted cheesy cream balanced out the drink so well. my daughter says it tasted like ice cream and I agree. sadly missed out on their free boba promotion (my own fault). lumi was so refreshing and fruity. loved the chia seeds for textural contrast and the lime slices for presentation. can't wait to come back and try the other drinks! give this small boba shop a try instead of the chains with +1hr lines! read more

This boba place has been changing the owner fews times but this time COMIKA finally has "coffee" in the menu which is a plus for me who works in the same plaza. All of the staffs is nice and friendly, cleanliness is a must that I always look at. The new design is simple, bright white color is nice and it will be great if have some greens. Music is not loud but enough to chill. The air conditioning is not bad, not too cold compared to most of the restaurants or boba place I have been. I can't wait for their grand opening. So I can try more drinks on the menu especially the three signature. read more

I got the drink called the Luka. The drink itself tasted like strawberry shortcake. When asked Taylor, the owner/cashier she said that the drink itself will be on the sweeter ends. I gotten my drink at 50% and it was still a bit too sweet for me but surprisingly I finished the whole cup before I got home. My drive back was at most 10mins. I'm usually not a chugger but it just proved that it's really good. Must go back and tried their non blended drink next time. Menu will be expanding in the future. The space itself was clean and bright. Still in their soft opening stage, the place took over another tea house next to Baron Tattoo. read more

Love that they use fresh fruits for their signature drinks. The Luka 50% sweet was perfect for my taste, and there was a noticeable difference in freshness. Popcorn chicken was great too. My friend and I enjoyed studying there...it had outlets, board games, and overall a clean and chill vibe. There were some Wi-Fi issues when we went but the owners were apologetic and attentive on resolving it. I'll update for when I try their signature taro. read more

Comika Boba House - Luka 50% and 100% - Bubble Tea Near Me - El Monte, California

New boba shop in El Monte and I'm excited to give it 5-stars. I don't usually like soft openings because it's messy, people are learning, and you really, really need to have limited expectations. But we were swept off our feet by their service, patience, and friendliness. Then, we were wowed by their drinks. They were very accommodating and answered all our questions. Even questions we were probably not supposed to ask! A big plus is that the boba pearl toppings are free (if you want it)! We got everything 75% because most boba shop drinks are full of sugar and so yeah... Their drinks were not too sweet and definitely good. Since we drive by often, we will be back to try other drinks and popcorn chicken, when their kitchen opens up. Note: It was a clean refreshing interior that was recently remodeled. It looks like a nice place to sit and study or catch up with friends. BTW, parking lot seemed to be busy and packed. It's next to a dim sum restaurant, so not sure if that makes the plaza busier. read more

I enjoy trying new boba spots, so I had to check out Comika in El Monte during their soft opening and I'm really glad I did. I ordered The Lumi and the Crème Brûlée Boba Milk, and the Lumi was my favorite. The Lumi was refreshing and light perfect if you want something fruity. The interior is really nice too. It feels clean, modern, and welcoming, with everything looking brand new and thoughtfully decorated. The customer service was amazing.This spot is a great place to sit and hang out.

The Luka is a sweet creamy blended strawberry drink and the lime green tea is a great quality tea with real squeezed lime juice! Every drink comes with FREE BOBA which is als a great plus considering most boba places have boba as a $1 or so add on. Service is also great and the drinks came out quickly. The interior is very clean and has lots of tables for studying or just chatting with friends. They're currently soft opening so I can only expect things to get even better!

I came into this shop when they were having their soft opening, unknowingly. I have been to this location before when it had different owners but I was excited to try Comika! I ordered a brown sugar milk tea with 50% sweetness and it was perfect! We also ordered a fruit tea with boba, I can't remember if it was passion fruit or mango... but I do remember that the flavor was delicious! It did not taste like syrup or artificial at all. It seemed like such a nice place to stay and have your drinks. Looked very modern but cozy at the same time. The cashiers were very friendly and they answered my questions about the Cloud drinks. This spot is so close to me and I will definitely come back again! read more
