the boba is so good they always make sure you get what you want and the costumer service is amazing this is the only boba shop i go to and will continue to go to

Interior
Lancy N.

The drinks are always good here T~T The staff are polite and drinks come out quickly every-time. The interior is neat and well lit. There's plenty of tables to hang out or study and the workers are friendly. Vi was a pleasure to talk to!

Taro mix burnt cream milk tea
Samantha W.

Been to a different Ding tea before but this was the first time at this location. We had the taro mix burnt cream milk tea. I liked the real taro in it, much better than taro flavoring alone. I thought the drink overall was okay. I think a bit more taro mixed into the milk would've made it better because all the taro was only lined on the inside of the cup so you had to use the straw to scrape it off and when you did scrape it off - I felt it would've been better with more of it. Also, the boba was a bit on the firm side and I think it would be better if it were a little softer.

Kumquat green tea with grass jelly
Tran J.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Small boba shop that has some seating area. Good for hanging out and studying or doing work.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Drinks I've tried at this location: Kumquat Lemon Iced Tea with grass jelly, half sweet. Super refreshing! You can taste the citrus. The grass jelly was soft and silky. I could've gone less sweet but still pretty good! Assam Black Tea with grass jelly and half sweet. Just the right amount of sweetness for me. Grass jelly soft and silky. The tea was earthy and strong, just the way I like it! Oolong Tea with cheese foam and golden boba, half sweet. The boba had the right amount of chewiness. I prefer to get regular tea with cheese foam because the cheese foam makes it creamy and a touch savory to cut the sugar down a bit. Tea was strong but could've been a touch stronger. The young lady that helped me at the register was kind. They make their drinks speedy, perfect for on the go. I believe you can even order online to pick up? Also don't forget to ask for a stamp card. Buy 10 and get 1 free.

Mulberry tea
Deb W.

I was nearby and thought to try this unique place. Walking up to order I wanted to try something different. There was a sign to try their new mulberry tea with crystal boba. I tried it but with lychee popping boba instead. The tea and the boba was good. There were lots of mulberries in my drink which I appreciated. However I was thinking it would be fresh fruit. When I ate the mulberries the texture was chewy? As if maybe they were dehydrated, then they tried to hydrate them again but not long enough? The service was good. Think I'd try the place again, but order something else.

Brown sugar boba

I love their brown sugar boba!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very quick service not super busy, nice cute small boba shop with really really good quality drinks I love coming here![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Strawberry slush with strawberry popping boba and Hokkaido Milk Tea with cheese foam.
Charlotte R.

I've been here a couple times but was not impressed with the last visit. I ordered a Hokkaido Milk Tea with cheese foam and a strawberry slush with strawberry popping boba. The cheese foam had a grainy texture and the drink tasted watered down. The popping boba was also a little hard. I was disappointed but hoping it was just an off day.

Winter melon green milk tea w/ lychee jelly
Julie S.

I really enjoyed the flavors of winter melon and green tea. Although I personally enjoy adding lychee jelly to my milk teas, I would probably get a different topping next time as it didn't compliment the drink too well. I do appreciate its large variety of a menu so I definitely want to try another drink the next time I visit. Service was good. Minimal interaction as expected. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a great place to hang out, especially at night since it has late hours until 11 pm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, pretty chill vibes and has nice decoration.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Entrance of Ding Tea!
Lailah S.

Stopped by Ding Tea in University Square Shopping Center for a quick boba break, and overall it was a solid visit! We tried the Strawberry Yakult Slush and the Honey Sweet Passion Fruit with Golden Boba--both drinks were super flavorful and refreshing, though definitely on the sweeter side, so something to keep in mind if you prefer a lighter taste. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space itself is clean with plenty of seating, which made it a nice spot to relax for a bit.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I went during the day and it wasn't crowded at all, which was a plus.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only downside was the customer service--it felt a bit rushed and not very welcoming. Nothing major, but a friendly attitude would've made the experience even better. Overall, I'd come back to explore more of the menu. The drinks were good, the space was chill, and with a little more warmth from the staff, this could easily become a go-to boba spot.

Menu November 2024
Laylah G.

This place is consistently good! I love their Thai tea, passionfruit slush with boba, and their signature. Service is usually good, they may take a second to take your order but it's never too long. Prices have increased over the years just like everywhere else.

I had Ding Tea in Asia, but never in the US until now, neither a location in San Diego, finally after 3 years seeing them popping up left and right, I stopped at this one to try out their tea, I guess their regular milk tea was just like a lot of reviews said, a bit bland and water down, but their brown sugar monster was a bit better, and I really like their boba toppings, not sticky or chewy at all. The price point is a little high for 2 large drinks came out almost $20 compared to other chains.

Lea J.

5-stars for the drink! Golden boba was perfect and the milk tea was well balanced. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Staff and ambiance are what you would expect.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
