    Roasted Oolong Milk Tea with Boba
    Jenny T.

    I wanted to try a new boba place and came across this one. There's a couple self-order kiosks at the front where you can place your orders. I ordered the Roasted Oolong Tea ($5.79) and Boba ($0.75), and I love that they have roasted oolong, which I don't come across often at other tea shops. They also have some seasonal and limited drinks on their menu. We were about the only ones there, so they made our drinks pretty quickly. Everything was pretty good, just that nothing was outstanding about it either. The boba was nice and chewy, and were pretty consistent. The tea itself was flavorful and not too sweet, although it's because I adjusted the sweetness to it. It's another nice boba shop to go to as an option, but I wouldn't say that I would go out of my way for it. I would say I would go here more for convenience if I'm already in the area.

    Decent boba that's reasonably priced. Flavorful but I've had better. Service is quick and provided with a smile. They have a few tables available and a photo booth but it wasn't functional when I visited.

    Quick boba stop on my way home from errands. Location is close to the freeway with ample parking in a small shopping center overlooking the freeway. The shop is small, but quite cute with tables for relaxing and a photo machine for fun pictures, much like the purikura machines in Japan. All orders are placed through a kiosk which was fine, it did allow for orders to be placed quickly and let the employees focus on preparing any drinks. My friend and I had our orders ordered and delivered fairly quickly, probably - 5-7 minute wait overall. Both drinks were delicious and would definitely come back again.

    I was excited when I realized there was a SD location for DaYung's Tea, I had tried this place before in Arizona and loved it but unfortunately didn't really love this location. I got the strawberry fresh milk which ive had before in another DaYung's location but this one tasted watered down, not strong in flavor so I was disappointed. The boba was also on the smaller side, it was cooked well but I've had better boba quality elsewhere. The location is great, by a lot of different grocery stores and workout gyms, wasn't too hard to find parking. There's also seating and tables inside the store which is nice if you want to sit down and enjoy your drink with someone.

    Pink beauty
    Jennifer C.

    Good but pricey. I got the pink beauty and my partner got the fresh fruit tea. At ~$8 and $9 each it's definitely on the high, high end of boba cost. We ordered through doordash and our order wasn't ready at the scheduled time which is a little annoying but they were busy. We got our drinks 10 or so minutes after the scheduled time. The actual drink flavor was really good! The pink beauty is a grapefruit drink with aloe and aiyu jelly. If you want a lighter drink, this is it. I got it with less ice and 30% sugar which was perfect. Strong grapefruit flavor. I liked the additional chew of the jelly too. My partner really liked his drink as well. The slices of fresh fruit was good too.

    Though the order kiosks are a little impersonal, the service is fast and the tea is great. I ordered the kumquat green tea with lychee jelly and my husband ordered fresh watermelon juice with taro and boba (a little weird, but he loves it). I don't know that I would stay here and eat, but definitely a great pickup spot.

    I always saw this boba shop whenever I shopped at Trader Joe's, so I decided to check it out on a whim one day LOL. It's located next to See's Candy, Kappa Sushi, and Supercuts in the Scripps Ranch Shopping Center in Mira Mesa/Scripps Ranch. There's a parking lot with ample stalls. The only downside about this shopping center is the entrance and exit out of it. There's only one "main" way to enter and exit to go to the freeway, and it's through Mira Mesa Blvd. The line of cars extends all the way to Trader Joe's sometimes. There are two other ways in and out, but they both head towards Lake Miramar, making a huge circle to get to Mira Mesa Blvd. I got their Roasted Oolong Milk Tea with my usual 50% sweetness. The drink was good, but it had more of creamy flavor than tea flavor that I preferred. There was still a subtle hint of oolong which I definitely appreciated. It was also still very sweet even at 50% sweetness and no toppings. Making a mental note to ask for my future drinks to be maybe 25% sweetness. Huge selection of drinks to choose from! I would like to try their other drinks such as their classic special collection, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here unless I'm already shopping at Trader Joe's. P.S. I believe there's an afternoon discount (can't remember what) on drinks. I missed the discount by 10 mins SAD.

    Strawberry Beauty + lychee jelly
    Samantha W.

    It was so hard to choose!! But we ended up trying the strawberry beauty and added lychee jelly to it. Oh my gosh...it's soooo good!!! Wow such great flavor. And the green tea has a nice floral aroma. Loved it. Will definitely be back.

    Strawberry and mango smoothies
    Deanne L.

    Pretty good first impression so far. Ordered the strawberry smoothie and mango smoothie with boba through a kiosk right at the entrance. Both drinks were good and refreshing, it tasted and looked like it was made with fresh fruit. We opted for lower sugar levels, but thought it would've been perfect at 100% sweetness. Came with a lot of boba, yum. Drinks took 5 min or less. Since we ordered at the kiosk, there wasn't much human interaction until you pick up your drinks. Cute small shop.

    Or go-to spot for Boba tea. So many businesses and choices everywhere. The important factors that are needed to make the best boba spots: 1. Boba should be slightly chewy and sweet 2. Menu selection should be unique 3. Everything it's made and tastes fresh 4. Staff are friendly and take the time to smile 5. Consistency 6. Easy to order online or via kiosk in store DaYung has a strong customer base, even with other boba shops nearby. We still try new places as they continuously open and are introduced to San Diego, but DaYung will always have our loyalty. They check all the marks above!

    I'm a boba addict and I'm picky about the flavor and the texture of the boba. love coming here for Jasmine Green milk tea with boba and Brown Sugar Boba Latte. The boba is perfectly sweetened and a bit chewy, just the way I like it.

    My friend suggested this place and I was looking forward to a new spot. When you enter, there are two kiosks machines on the right where you can place your order. They do not take your order at the counter unless you have a gift card transaction or are redeeming points. There is a sign specifically for that along with other signs. There is a two seat and four seat table. There is also a bar but only one bar chair available at the time. I got a hot winter melon milk tea and it was ok. There was only one person ahead but it took a while to get my order. My friend joined a little after and also noticed that it took a while to get her order.

It was my first time and I had zero clue what to get, but the girl at the register was so sweet and patient. She took her time helping me figure out a combo I'd love and made the whole experience feel really welcoming instead of rushed. You can also customize your milk (coconut, etc.), which I always appreciate. The shop itself is adorable. Think soft pink, super cute, aesthetic vibes all around. There's even an upstairs area that's set up for tea parties, which is such a fun touch and makes it feel a little more special than your average coffee spot. They also have pastries and small bites, so it's not just drinks if you're feeling snacky. Overall, this place is such a vibe. Great drinks, genuinely kind service, and a space that makes you want to hang out a little longer. Definitely coming back to try more of their menu.

So we decided on Nonna's for their variety of pastas and pizza. The evening was packed with people up and down the streets. However, when we arrived at Nonna's we only had to wait no more than a couple of minutes before being seated. We thought most italian places would provide some sort of complimentary bread, but this place did not. We ended up ordering the Carbonara, Fusilli Alla Vodka, Pappardelle, and Salsiccia pizza. Each were fantastic, but the family really enjoyed the Fusilli and the Pappardelle the most! The short rib meat was extremely tender and flavorful. Portions were a little smaller than expected, but it was enough to feed each of us with a couple slices of pizza to spare. Ambiance was nice and the staff was great. A drink we ordered was forgotten, but it's understandable since it was quite busy. Overall, great experience and glad we ended up at Nonna's even though it wasn't part of the batch of recommendations provided online. (Sorry forgot to take photos as we were so hungry and didn't realize it until after we ate!)

They also have a great selection of breakfast sandwiches and pastries, and the outdoor patio is a nice spot to sit and enjoy your coffee. That being said, I do think there are a few areas where this coffee shop could improve, especially when it comes to customer service. Unfortunately, the atmosphere didn't feel particularly warm or inviting. Several of the employees seemed to simply stare at customers rather than greeting them or offering any assistance. With coffee and dining out becoming more expensive, I think customer service can really make a difference in whether someone chooses to come back. When employees take the time to get to know their regular customers, make recommendations, or simply make you feel welcomed, it adds so much more value to the experience. Overall, Portal has some great food options, a nice patio, and reasonably priced coffee, but I think improving the customer service and creating a more welcoming atmosphere would make a big difference.
