A good tea option in the bay area! A little bit more watery compared to similar tea shops but the size is much bigger which I appreciate!! Tea taste is still yummy and strong. This was my first time trying the cream top, and I feel like it didn't add anything to the drink so I don't think I will be getting it again. It just tasted really airy lol. Overall, a solid option, and service was quick on a Thursday afternoon!

I stumbled upon this new location while shopping at Tokyo Central in the Merlion Plaza in Cupertino. Moontea takes over the previous Tiger Sugar boba tea space. The parking is ok as it can be busy during peak hours. Updated, spacious and remodeled to include tables and seats for people to sit and relax. Kiosk to order from. One unisex restroom. Peach Oolong Tea. The tea flavor is strong with the light hint of peach. The drink is not too sweet and you can adjust the sweetness level. Their special lids allow the tea to be sipped and slowly enjoyed. Support your local business.

It's actually pretty solid. The Jasmine is quite similar to Molly's, for a better price and more volume. The service is actually p quick and they were really nice about swapping drinks too, even when it was pretty busy. The inside is like most modern oriental milk tea places. Clean and simplistic. In terms of other drinks the Dan Cong, is p good with a nutty flavor too.

I got the hot Jasmine Milk Tea with whipped cream and pecan ($7.25). I feel like this taste so much better when it's hot, the flavors are slightly more muted then when you drink it cold. Drinking it hot is like a warm hug, it's comforting and relaxing. I always get 0% for the sweetness levels, the whipped cream gives it the perfect amount of sweetness imo. The pecans are good, just wish it was more crunchy.

This place is great. Rather than sticking to just 1 tea spot I just have a rotation of places so I don't get tired of the place. Currently MoonTea is one of the spots on heavy rotation. Haven't really tried too many different drinks here yet but so far the jasmine milk tea with whipped cream and pecans has been one of my go to picks.

Finally got to try this milk tea spot. In my opinion, I like this more than Molly Tea. I ordered the jasmine milk tea with whipped cream and pecans. The drink was delicious and very aromatic. The interior was clean and bright. Service was quick and it took less than 10 minutes to get our drinks.

We ordered the Da Hong Pao Milk Tea with Whipped Cream and Pecan and the Sea Salt Green Milk Tea. The whipped cream on the Da Hong Pao was fresh and delicious, especially with the hickory-smoked pecan topping. While the tea itself had a strong, flavorful note, the milk profile felt a bit thin. Our favorite was definitely the Sea Salt Green Milk Tea--it was perfectly creamy while still maintaining a potent tea taste! The service was quick, and the store is spacious with plenty of seating to relax or wait for your order.

One of my favorite milk tea spots in the bay! Their teas are always so potent and strong, not overpowered by the milk at all - clean bright interior, they sell food so some people were sipping on drinks and eating while studying/working - order on a kiosk, service is quick (1) sea salt green milk tea: a seasonal menu drink, the salt hits you right away and mellows out with the smooth green tea, that salt almost makes the drink creamy - overall a yummy refreshing drink (the 25% sweetness was perfect for that not too sweet flavor and really let the tea shine) (2) jasmine milk tea: a classic flavor, they do it so well here, its floral, clean, and refreshing

Moontea has been open for awhile and is located next to gyukaku in cupertino marketplace plaza and today I finally got to try it! I am a huge Chagee fan and heard this place was pretty similar. We ordered on the self serve kiosk and the line went pretty fast. I got a peach oolong milk tea (also my go to at Chagee), which was fragrant and fruity. Their teas are stronger and typically not as sweet but you could adjust the sweetness. A total hidden gem that offers Chinese style milk teas! It satisfied my milk tea cravings and didn't make me feel heavy at all. They also offer toppings now, so I added brown sugar boba in mine for my sweet tooth. If you like Molly tea or Chagee, this place is very similar and does their teas extremely well! Highly recommend and will be putting my friends on this.

Came here on a whim and was definitely NOT disappointed!! If youre looking for something light and not too sweet this is the spot. I got the lychee milk tea while my family got the jasmine milk tea and peach milk tea. I personally love mine the best as the lychee perfectly balanced the floral notes of the milk tea! I also got 75% instead of the normal sweetness as I usually am a 100% sweetness type. The jasmine was surprisingly strong (not a bad thing) and the peach was not artificial. Plenty of seating and a great place to study as I saw a couple of people doing their work. Drinks came out pretty quick not to mention I love their cups. Would recommend to try if you like Molly tea!

New specialty milk tea shop. it is located in the same complex as Tokyo central supermarket. it is interesting decoration with Halloween theme. you ordered from the touch screen kiosk. if you want to order non milk tea, you are out of luck. Everything is tea with milk but you can substitute the regular milk with Oat milk. Beside drink they also have bite size snack like sausage and stinky tofu. it has table if you want to seat They also has lemon team but ran out when we visit. it will be available on 10/28. We order Peach oolong milk tea with Oat milk and osmanthus milk tea. To be honest, I am at the edge on this as the order we have lack of tea. I thought it will be strong tea with milk. it was light tea flavor. I love the cup design though.

Final Thoughts: 4.00/5 This place has been open for a while now, but previously they did not have boba, so we just never stopped by here. Today, after our dinner, we saw that they did have boba on the menu, so we decided to give it a try. Simple, solid 4 star for today. Drink: Da Hong Pao Milk Tea (with regular ice, lactose free milk, and 25% sweetness): 4.0/5 This was the drink I chose for today. For the flavor of the tea, I actually really like the strength of the tea with the milk. The tea flavor is really prominent and I like the smell of it. It appears they use the tea leaves and he smell of them are quite nice. It seems really fresh and light and mixes well with the milk. Something interesting is that they label their lactose free milk as just that. Perhaps they actually use lactose free milk for the dairy free option versus a milk alternative like almond milk or oatmilk. No concerns with the milk options, but just a note since lactose free milk seems to be more of an umbrella term. The sweetness worked Chocolate Ceylon My W Hazelnut Chocolate Cheese W Cocoa Powder Figs: 3.8/5 My friend's drink today that I tried for review purposes. This was was also quite good in general. If you like the combination of chocolate and hazelnut, you'll probably like this one. It seems to be a blended drink. The flavors work well together and compliment each other. Of note though, this drink might have too many flavors happening in it because the figs did drown somewhere in the drink. Chocolate and hazelnut are two stronger flavors, so perhaps just leaving it at that would have been fine. Boba was alright for me too. Some flavor to it with a nice texture (some chew with that little bite). Menu: Difficult to read Their menu options are quite limited. I like that they have an indicator showing the strengths of their tea. This is really what I went off of because I like the taste of a strong tea, so I chose the one with the 4 leaves. Of note, there are no hot drinks available here, which would have been my desired choice as the temperature outside is super cold. Kind of interesting given they could have just warmed up the drinks. Something about their physical menu too is that the text is super small. I am super vision impaired and could not read the menu inside. My options were to walk outside to see the menu standing out in the front (also small text by the way) or have my friend read out the drinks for me. Perhaps making it larger would help or put the menu in various places around the café itself as the seating and waiting area is observed to be spacious. ---Side note for the menu: Descriptions on their DoorDash Ordering Menu Descriptions of what each drink is or what they may taste like would be helpful too because they do have the drink names in multiple languages, but no description or anything. Your average person would perhaps have no idea what the taste of each drink is without something more than just the name. If you really do want a description though, go to their doordash ordering menu and you'll be able to find it there. This would have been very helpful on their actual in-store menu. --------- Quality: Made in bulk perhaps The drinks came out quite quickly, so I'm thinking that the drinks and teas are made in bulk, placed into the large dispenser containers and then poured into the drinks as they are ordered. I've learned that making some things in bulk shouldn't take too much of the flavor or quality away though. The taste of the drinks we got were quite good, so nothing too significant to note here. Price: Fair for the item provided For two drinks, the price was around $15, which is very average and fair for the size and item provided. Price ranges will be within $6 to $8. Their cups are on the larger side, but to be fair, a lot of it is just milk and tea. Service: No interactions We actually didn't have any interactions with the workers here during this visit. We ordered at a kiosk and the drinks were just put in the front once completed. You'll know when the drinks are ready because they do have a signOf note, the drinks did come out fairly quickly to which my friend attributed to them making their teas in bulk. Ambiance: Spacious The interior is very spacious and does have a strong scent of their teas. This place gives me Molly Tea vibes, but that might be attributed to the smell and drinks provided in general. Many tables are available here, so you can choose to sit here, drink, and hang out or you can choose to pick up the drink and go. Location/Parking: Marketplace Cupertino It's located in the plaza on Stevens Creek Blvd. On the map, it states Marketplace Cupertino. This parking lot is large if you think about the space as a whole. If you just think about the parking space where Gyukaku, Curry Hyuga, and Moon Tea are, the spaces are almost limited and kind of tight. We typically don't have a concern with finding a parking spot here because there is a lot of turnover happening.

A kiosk is located right by the entrance and you pickup your drink at the front of the store when you're number is called. They have a TV that shows numbers that are ready for pickup. They also have a shelf for online orders. They were quite busy on a Wednesday afternoon for their soft opening. My partner ordered the Peach Oolong Milk Tea with Whipped Cream & Hickory with Boba. When we walked out with the drink, my partner realized it was missing the boba! He went back inside and they put a scoop of boba in his cup. I ordered the Ceylon Lemon Tea since they didn't have the Peach Lemon tea. There's only a handful of non dairy items on the drink menu. They offer lactose free milk though if you would like to use that as a substitute. I don't know how this will compete with the likes of other boba shops in close vicinity as it's a tough market to be in.
