I have never been to this location but their menu remains fairly the same as previous locations. It was sweet of my co-worker to buy me tea before I headed over home. I went straight for lychee tea with no added and 50% sweet. Watching my sugar intake especially with bubble tea which I cannot remember the last time I had at tea shop, so long. Just enought sweetness and Lynchee flavor. I saw on their door window that you can get 20 mins free parking while at shop. Mostly meter parking along there.

Our friends really hyped it up and I can totally see why, this place is actually really good and a…read morelocal hit especially for the college students At first it reminded me of boba tea, but the more you drink (and start chewing on the purple rice), the better it gets. The texture is honestly the star here, and it makes the drink feel way more satisfying than your typical milk tea. We ordered the jujube drink and the mango drink. I personally liked the jujube one more, but my girlfriend preferred the mango. Both were really good, plenty sweet, and the purple rice had such a great chew that I didn't even feel like I needed boba or any extra toppings. Inside is super cute too. I feel like if they had board games or something it would be such a fun hangout spot. Staff was friendly and we got our drinks pretty quick. One thing to note: the rice is really filling. I genuinely felt like I ate a meal after finishing a drink. Would definitely come back.

I ordered their strawberry guava purple rice yogurt drink and I felt a bit disappointed that I didn't taste much of the guava. However, their purple rice yogurt drinks are one of the best on the island, and I always try to get one whenever I am in the area. Overall, highly recommend! Great place to go for a refreshing and delicious boba treat.

A cute little shop located in the middle of Kapahulu. May the parking gods be in your favor. I've…read morehad luck with parking on Date Street which is less than a 5 min of a walk from the shop. When arriving, there are many cozy chairs inside, with a collection of board games to choose from. I noticed that UberEats type of delivery service were picking up orders consistently throughout our time here. We ordered the Strawberry Panna Cotta, thinking that it was a parfait dessert or served on a plate. Though when the gentleman taking our order asked for the sweetness level, we knew it must've been a drink. And it did not disappoint! I've never had anything like this before. It was the perfect blend of strawberry on top, not too sweet, not too sour and the panna cotta smooths it all out from the bottom up through your straw. The gentleman working there was very friendly, very kind, answered all our questions. One being that they do not serve food/desserts here anymore because of the shelf-life and unpredictability of people ordering these items, I get it. He truly seems to love his job and it shows. Walking each order out to everyone, whether they're waiting inside or outside the shop, he's hustling, not sauntering around. And in between, he's straightening the stuffed animals on the couches, so that they look presentable. It's the little things that count, and I appreciate that. Nevertheless, we will definitely be back to try other flavors!

Visited GangnamCha at Ala Moana to try their fruit drinks and desserts. This spot is a walk-up…read morecounter only with no seating, so it's more of a grab-and-go situation rather than a place to hang out. I ordered the mango sago, which was honestly underwhelming. The mango flavor tasted either artificial or extremely diluted. The color was very pale--I could barely see that signature yellow/orange mango hue--and the mango flavor itself was almost nonexistent. The coconut base and sago pearls were fine and pretty standard, but nothing memorable or exciting enough to make me want to order it again. My husband got the fresh watermelon smoothie. You could tell the watermelon itself was fresh, which we appreciated, but the drink was very watered down due to too much ice. After just one gulp, it felt like it turned into mostly ice with very little juice left. He did like that it came standard with coconut jelly, which added a nice texture and sweetness. Overall, the drinks were okay but lacked strong, fresh fruit flavor, especially for the price and expectations. If they reduced the ice and intensified the fruit base, these drinks could be much better. Probably wouldn't rush back, but could be a quick stop if you're already at Ala Moana and craving something light and cold.

We got it at 100% sugar level and it was perfect for that smoothie. The boba was mushy. A lot of people ordered the avocado smoothie. I will try that the next time. They still only take cash. They don't charge tax.

Such a great pick-me-up and definitely something I'd order again, especially on a warm day.

This location has limited seating inside but there is also covered seating outside for patrons. We have tried numerous drinks from this location so in our experience you can't go wrong with the drinks offered here but our favorites are the ice blended drinks. I recently had a strawberry coconut ice blended drink with mango boba and it was absolutely delightful. It was Tahiti in a cup. I love coconut so it's always a pleasure when the flavor shines through in a dish or drink!

I didn't taste any of those flavors as it was so light. They were out of pomelo, which I was ok with. Maybe that made a difference? Next time I'll probably pick a different drink.

Located in City Square Shopping Center which has lots of free parking as it's home to many other tenants as well make it an easy stop to pick up a sip which is what I was craving after a long day of errands. Walking in as many of their other locations to see snacks galore is fun and tempting to pair with your tea I just focused on their menu and decided on a Black Lemon Tea plain lightly sweeten is just my refreshing vibe, and the staff was nice and got it started so I decided to browse around and noticed the other section of the shop and was so shocked to see the selection they have though thankfully my tea was ready and I just head out while I can lol! Lovely shop though no place to sit and enjoy and just took it and got on my way. Thank you!
