    Honey Lemon Black Tea (TikTok: @justandyvu)

    1. The drink tasted as delicious and refreshing as the ones ordered at other locations! 2. The spot has fast casual vibes! 3. There are inside seatings available! 4. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! 5. Parking lot is small, and street parking is available! Note: There is a single restroom for customers! Photo: Honey Lemon Black Tea

    Thai tea, mango shaved ice and mango smoothie with extras.

    Great little place to get a little sweetness after having bcd tofu. We had a mango smoothie - thumbs up from my 12 yr old -got a little extra boba and crystal jelly, Thai tea with boba ( made someone teeth turn a little orange-a little strong to me) and a mango shaved ice. We ordered regular with came in a 16 oz cup- ice on bottom, mango chunks and purée, crystal boba, condensed milk and a small scoop of mango ice cream. We all seemed to enjoy this one. It wasn't too packed at 9:00 p - good seats to enjoy. Best price - it was all less than $15

    Not a single fruit bits on the peach strawberry fruit tea.

    This is the only location of Boba Time that I went to that does not put fruit bits on their Peach Strawberry fruit tea. In one of the drinks, there was a hair inside the cup. That is disgusting and unacceptable. Just in case you want to order from this place, Please make sure to check your orders before you leave. As for us, we were very disappointed and will not be back in this location.

    The drinks we ordered were sweet. So, we needed some water after the fact. Be prepared as they don't give out water or a cup of ice.

    The drinks we ordered were naturally sweet in a good way. So, we needed some water after the fact. Be prepared as they don't give out water or a cup of ice. $5 for Bottle of Water-- they don't have tap water to spare. $1.25 for Cup of Ice The server was very nice about it but shame on the management.

    Considering this chain has a ton of locations, you'd think it would be more of a slay. I have no idea if all of their locations are like this, but genuinely the best thing about this place was that it's open later than the boba shops around the area. We quite literally had no choice but to come here, and I'm starting to think that opening late compared to competition is the only way they get business. We got (rating): Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba (3/5), Strawberry Matcha with Boba (1.70/5), House Milk Tea, Peach Strawberry Tea with Boba (2.5/5), Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea (2/5), Pistachio Matcha Milk Tea with Boba (1.50/5) I was so excited to try my pistachio matcha tea because I've never seen that combination be done in any store before. When I tell you I felt INSTANT sadness after that very first sip, I am emphasizing the INSTANT part. The drink itself was so watery it was like matcha flavored water, and the boba only served to make the drink worse by adding this slimy, soft lump of goo to your every sip. Across the board, the drinks were watery. The fruit in the fruit teas didn't shine through and the jasmine in the jasmine milk tea wasn't strong enough. Just super disappointing all around.

    this latte didn't taste like coffee at all, and wasn't even hot and steamed properly.

    The staff doesn't seem to know how to do the job properly. I ordered a coffee, but they didn't even know how to make it, which was quite surprising. The boba also seemed old. Please make sure to provide proper training, or hire someone who is more experienced.

    No complaints I always get a tasty drink out of here every time. It's a reliable spot for good boba drinks, you know what you're pretty much getting out of each and every location. This location stays open pretty late so any late night boba cravings for me this is where I'm most likely going to.

    Lavender Milk Tea

    3.5 stars rounding down Visited out of convenience since it's open until 11pm and in the same plaza with bunch of eateries~ Hangari kalguksu, Sun Nong Dan Lavender Milk Tea- ok but not amazing, but other drinks could be better so might try something else next time No sugar/ ice adjustments Staff was nice

    Just like any other Boba time, great boba place. Sometimes it gets too busy here and the drinks may take quite some time, but quality is consistent. Good place to go after eating from the restaurants in the plaza. All the drinks are good, would recommend just the regular milk tea if you aren't feeling too adventurous. I got a strawberry flavored drink and it was good. Would recommend this place if you are looking for a good spot for boba.

The juice was really good and hit exactly what I was craving. The acai bowl was decent, but nothing memorable.

I stopped in on one of the hottest days of the summer and discovered this hidden gem on Sunset Blvd in artsy creative sunny Silver Lake, Los Angeles. I had heard of Naturewell and their locations (also in DTLA, on the go in their truck van for catering/events and in Altadena, formerly), but this was my first full experience trying a good variety including some of their awesome all natural snacks. I was greeted right away and got to take in everything including their extensive as well as growing collection of grab and good goodies, wellness shots and beverages. I wasn't feeling up to a bowl (definitely next time), but a Berrylicious smoothie and some truly awesome Gopal's Savory Pumpkin Seed Sprouties were the perfect mix. I went with the 20oz large size for my bev as it was a really hot day and only $1 more. My too cool for school Bar-rista even offered me a nice ice cold water while I waited as we bonded over that L.A. heat and humidity. They had some pickup orders and inquiring individuals passing by on the street and a few boxes to increase their shelf inventory. There's cute cozy chairs and tables out front, not to mention some space to enjoy their plants inside and that amazing AC. Eco friendly w/ easy cup carries for multiple drinks. They accept most forms of payment, including digital pay (Apple, Samsung, etc) and offer military discounts for those have served and/or are currently serving. Easy bike parking out front, local street parking and very close to metro stops as well as not more than 20 minutes from metro stations. Outside area in front is fairly open and pup friendly. Come fell the well/wellness of Naturewell.

They don't…read moreknow this but I was acting as a caretaker that day so picking up food for someone who just got out of surgery. Being a caretaker, even if for 2 days, is draining. So to encounter what I did in the midst of that was disheartening. Basically, I came in and was not greeted at all. I waited. I waited. Then, I moved closer to where the barista was working. Still nothing. Then, a man comes in and the same barista greets him. Turns out the man was picking up an order. Same as me. But he was likely with Uber Eats or Door Dash. After he took care of that man...mind you greeted, got his order and bid him ado...he still didn't attend to me. So, I finally greet him: Hi, how are you doing? I'm here to pick up a to-go order. The name is... He turns to go check and may have said something minimal. I can't remember. I do remember he never made eye contact. He must've said it's coming or something. I go back towards the front to wait. Another man enters, who is greeted by a different employee. Kindly. Takes care of the guy and even says have a good day. That same, second man brings me my to-go order. Doesn't say have a good day. I mean it's not like it's not possible, right. Don't gaslight me. I just 2 different people treat 2 different people better than I was. I check my bag and ask for utensils. He gets them. That's it. I decide to call after I left. Mind you parking stinks around this area. I would never think to come here to struggle and pay for parking and deal with bad customer service and food that is mid at best. The manager, a lady, wasn't much better. She apparently was sitting in the store and remembered me and the color I was wearing. She's basically like I saw you. I don't know what happened. I'll have to check with my staff because we don't discriminate. Mind you, ai didn't mention race. Was it because I was black? Perhaps because I was a woman? I will never know. What I do know is I was treated differently real time. Looked past. Given a lower level of priority and reception. But I'm puzzled that if this manager saw 3 very different interactions, why didn't she intervene. People have built in biased whether they are aware of it or not. And there is a difference between intent and impact. I did not feel seen. I did not feel empathy. She offered a free drink. She apologized. But it didn't feel heartfelt or sincere. You know how when you can tell when they are genuinely disappointed and want to really make it right. I told her that I didn't even live in the area and wasn't thrilled about returning. I won't return. And as I said the coffee and food was mid. Do better.

After purchasing a smoothie, we discovered plastic particles inside the drink, which was very concerning. Unfortunately, the situation was made worse by the response from the manager, Arthur. When I called to report the issue, he requested my credit card information over the phone in order to process a refund. When I expressed discomfort with providing that information over the phone, he responded dismissively and implied that I was not genuinely interested in resolving the matter. I later returned to the store in person and showed him the piece of plastic directly, yet his attitude remained condescending and dismissive throughout the interaction. As customers, we expect both quality products and respectful customer service, especially considering the premium prices being charged. I truly hope this experience does not reflect the standards and values associated with Erewhon.
