    Tie Guan Yin Oolong Milk Tea 鐵觀音奶茶
    Riley Z.

    Decided to give this place another chance after my initial visit, and I am thoroughly pleased with the results. I tried the Tie Guan Yin Oolong with boba, which has a smooth, floral flavor along with a sweet aftertaste. This drink has definitely raised my standards in oolong tea. And the boba is a nice addition; an addictive flavor and a soft, chewy texture. I feel like there could be a little more boba, but I only say so because the boba is addictive. Will be coming here more often!

    Their strawberry matcha was funky - I don't recommend. Their green milk tea with jelly was fire. Their parking situation is quite limited, and don't fall for the $7 valet trap. Service here was extra kind, and they had a deal where you can play a pinball game to get an extra discount. Overall, it's a clean and minimalistic cafe.

    We got the Signature Sticky Rice Flavored Oolong Au Lait and Signature Black Tea Au Lait, we both thought it was just ok. I think mine would've been better with full sweetness. The boba was a little over cooked. They did have samples on the counter so I was able to try the SSR special which I thought was wayyy better. The custard was cooked nicely and the oolong milk tea tasted better than what I ordered. I want to come back and try that with custard so if you're unsure what to get, maybe order that. Lastly, they conveniently have mobile ordering and my order was ready before I got there!

    It's located in a small plaza with more parking in the rear. There is a tablet you can order from. This is one of my friend's go to tea spots so I ordered the Tie Guan Yin Oolong milk tea per her recommendation. It was smooth and refreshing. The interior has some seating but probably not a great place to work/study since space is limited.

    The shop was very cute and clean but would not recommend if you wanted to catch up on studying/work as there was only one table. They have a game you can play only on weekdays where you can win bogo, stickers or discounts. I ended up winning 10% off my order which was very nice. I decided to try the genmai matcha with matcha jelly and my bf got the strawberry matcha latte. Both were pretty basic and didn't really wow us. The genmai matcha was extremely bitter and I could not finish it. It was a cute shop to try out but I don't see myself coming back. Service was really good though!

    Brown Sugar Mist
    Jack M.

    I finally made it to Mosa Tea! I had the brown sugar mist. The tea came with "Tie Guan Yin Oolong Tea, Osmanthus Honey, Brown Sugar Cream Foam" (Mosa Tea, 2026). The tea was pretty good. It was not what I was expecting. The flavor was good, but the brown sugar cream did not make the beverage as creamy as I wanted and it did not dilute well in the tea. There were little tiny bits of the cream floating in the tea, but like I said, it tasted very good. The young lady at the counter was very nice. There's a decent amount of seating inside and no outside seating.

    Woooo!!!!

    Heard about this place, figured welcoming the new shop to the Convoy community. Here was my experience. AMBIANCE Parking: Plaza-style parking--pretty manageable depending on the time. Seating: More of a grab-and-go spot, but still enough space to hang, study, or chill. Vibes: Convoy is a very busy place with a lot of eateries and activities. The spot itself is really clean! A modern tea shop with a focus on quality. You can tell they take their drinks seriously--everything feels intentional rather than rushed. FOOD / DRINKS: Pistachio Mist (Recommend) This one stands out. It's made with genmai green tea topped with a housemade pistachio cream foam. The base tea is light and slightly toasty while the pistachio foam adds a creamy, nutty richness on top. The balance is what makes it work--it's not overly sweet, just smooth and layered. CUSTOMER SERVICE Friendly and efficient. Staff keeps things moving but still takes care with the drinks. TL;DR OVERALL 4 Stars. Good choices, delicious flavors, all in a reasonal price. If you're looking to try something different from your usual order, the Pistachio Mist is worth it--creative, balanced, and easy to enjoy. TIPS: * Go for their signature drinks--this is where they shine!

    Tie Guan Yin Oolong with Boba
    Allison P.

    I Mosa definitely will be coming back! Pun fully intended... Mosa Tea is a beautiful boba spot located in Kearny Mesa. They specialize in Taiwanese teas and quality ingredients! Their branding is super aesthetic and it really shines in the shop. There are also some tables inside if you wanted to stay to work/study. I tried the Tie Guan Yin Oolong Milk Tea with Boba. I believe this is their signature tea! With deep, roasted undertones, the tea really shone through with this one. Bonus points for having a non-dairy option! Their boba was perfectly chewy and warm- great texture!

    Mosa Tea is easily one of my favorite boba spots in San Diego! Their milk teas are consistently delicious, but what really sets them apart are the homemade brown sugar jellies. I actually prefer them over regular boba pearls--they're soft, flavorful, and make every drink so much better. I also like coming here when I need a change of scenery to study. They have free Wi-Fi, a clean minimalist interior, and restrooms available, which makes it easy to stay for a while. The space is on the smaller side, so seating and outlets can be limited during busier times, but it's still a comfortable spot if you can grab a table. The service is also great with friendly staff. They also sometimes give out samples of the teas! If you're looking for high-quality milk tea with unique toppings and a cozy café vibe, Mosa Tea is definitely worth checking out.

    I originally came here hoping to try their Uji Chestnut Matcha, but sadly, they were all out. That didn't stop me from coming back a few more times though lol Overall, everything I've tried is pretty tasty. I love that their drinks taste more like tea than milk, which is what I like. The baristas are so sweet. Every time I go, they're happy to answer questions and even offer samples with toppings. I like their jellies surprisingly (I don't usually like jelly in my drink) Here's what I tried: - Genmai Green Milk Tea - 10/10 Would order again, especially with that pistachio foam on top! (50% sweet) - Matcha Latte with Pistachio Foam - 8/10 Their matcha is good with oat milk. (75% sweet) - Brown Sugar Mist - 6/10 Interesting, but not my favorite. - Strawberry Matcha Latte - 7/10 The strawberry is a little tart, but I still prefer their regular matcha. (50% sweet)

    I've really been into tea jellies recently and when I popped into this spot, they had a sample of mango green tea with osmanthus oolong tea jelly and I was sold! The tea had good flavor, was super refreshing, and the jelly was so good. Loved that it had fresh mango pieces in it too. My friends got a pistachio mist and brown sugar mist - tried them both and those were good too! The interior space is simple and clean, has a cute seating area to enjoy your drink. Service was also super quick.

    grapefruit tea and oolong jelly tastes medicinal . Its aight 2/12/26
    Hannah L.

    Strong tea flavor but the drink I got was an acquired taste. They also ran out of boba by the time we came around 8:30pm (30 minutes before closing) on a Thursday. - Grapefruit Bloom 柚香四季 ($6.75): Roasted Buckwheat Four Seasons Tea, Tie Guan Yin Oolong Jelly, Grapefruit, 25% Ice, 50% Sugar -- roasted flavor with bitter/tartness of grapefruit aftertones. Jelly was kinda medicinal tasting, but again, acquired taste. I didn't mind it, but SO was not a fan. Nice, simple aesthetic. Small and not ideal for studying. Parking lot is small - I would imagine it would be difficult to find parking at peak hours. I would come back to try their boba and other drinks.

    Mosa tea has delicious teas. I come here specifically if I'm craving the matcha jelly, which I haven't found elsewhere like how they prepare it. Service is quick and easy, though can be slowed if it's busy. The cafe is very small with only a couple of tables and seats, but I've still seen people choose it as a place for working.

I wanted something a little extra, and this spot delivered. I ordered a custom lavender iced matcha with honey cold foam and wow... it was such a good call. The lavender wasn't overpowering, just light and calming, and paired so well with the earthy matcha. That honey cold foam on top? Chef's kiss. It added the perfect touch of sweetness without making the drink feel heavy. Every sip was smooth, balanced, and honestly kind of addicting. What really stood out though was the service. 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.
