    Large green tea quarter sugar
    Will M.

    El Monte doesn't have too many good boba spots, but Ono Tea House is a decent option. Prices here are a little lower than most places, which is nice. The tea itself is just okay -- not super strong -- and the drinks can lean on the sweeter side. I usually order mine with 1/4 sugar since I don't like them too sweet. Overall, it's not a spot I'd go out of my way for, but if you're in El Monte and really craving boba, it does the job.

    Their Brown Sugar Boba Milk tea was delicious it had great brown sugar flavor and the boba and pudding was chewy and tasty.

    Randomly stumbled upon this tea house since I ate at a restaurant nearby. Really enjoyed the drinks here and the flavors were pretty good. They had a BOGO deal for pumpkin pie ice tea and I ended up getting that as well as another drink. the BOGO deal was like $4.50 for two which is really good especially since the drink was great. The chocolate swirl milk tea was pretty refreshing as well. We had all the drinks at 50% sugar and it was just right.

    Such a lovely establishment with nice plants that gave me good energy coming in. They have dairy free options! Even with that I still opted for an oolong tea, no sweetener or milks. The tea was really strong and had good flavor. I will come back to try some of the other drinks. A regular size looks like a gallon it's huge! The boys got milk tea with boba they seemed to like it just fine. Come get your milk tea with strawberry popping boba or a durian shake they both looked great!

    This place is super nice, with a wide variety of options for drinks and they even have a caffeine-free option, which I tried (called Sugar Stripes Milk). It tasted almost like milk boba, minus the caffeine spike afterwards. They also have fruit smoothies and all sorts of seasonal drinks. Great place. Highly recommended.

    I love the smell of boba being made whenever I enter the shop. It's a small comfy shop with cute plants around. Huge cups. Very friendly. Their boba tastes great. They actually have flavor and taste like they've been cooked with brown sugar, not bland at all. Ono Tea House is my favorite!! :^D I've been getting boba here about once a month for about a year now. I've had their thai milk tea, house milk tea, honeydew green milk tea, guava yogurt, lychee yogurt, strawberry yogurt, and peach yogurt. All yummy! I have ordered in-store and over the phone for pickup. Never had a bad experience so far. :^D (update with pictures and more info)

    Lately I been wanting to try new tea places and came across this place since I was passing by on Garvey. Employees wore masks and there were plastic clear shields at the counters for cashier and pickup which was good to protect customers and employees especially during pandemic. Not a lot of tea places nowadays serve almond milk tea but I'm surprised this place does and surprisingly it satisfied my almond milk tea craving! They have regular size and large size cups, and even a regular size is good enough for me. I got a regular size almond milk tea ($4.50) + added crystal boba topping ($0.75) = $5.25 total for the drink. I also got a brown sugar striped milk drink ($5.65) that came with 2 toppings. I chose pudding and grass jelly. Both drinks were good but it was kind of powdery which irritated the throat so I wish it was dissolved more. Other than that, I would come back again if I'm in the area.

    I've visited Browned a few times over the years, mostly for their Macau-style cream puffs, but this…read moretime I finally branched out and tried more of the menu. The biggest surprise was the Kimchi Croissant, which has honestly become my favorite pastry in the SGV. The croissant was flaky and buttery, with bacon, a soft jammy egg yolk, and just enough kimchi to add a little spice and acidity without overpowering everything else. It's a combination I wasn't sure would work, but it really does. I also had one of their signature cream puffs, and it's easy to see why they're known for them. They offer some interesting flavors like Biscoff Crunch, Taro Salted Egg Yolk, and black sesame hojicha which are a nice change from the usual vanilla and chocolate options. For drinks, I tried the Pistachio Cloud Top Matcha and the Black Sesame Cloud Top. Both were well balanced and not overly sweet. The pistachio matcha was my favorite of the two. The staff were friendly and patient, even though there was a steady flow of customers and plenty of people taking their time deciding what to order. One thing to keep in mind is that they do sell out of popular items fairly early, so if you have something specific in mind, it's worth going earlier in the day. Overall, Browned is a solid bakery with creative pastries, good drinks, and friendly service. It's easy to see why it's become such a popular spot in San Gabriel.

    This is a new place, and while I was excited to try it, the parking situation was a bit confusing…read more There weren't enough clear signs showing where visitors should park or where to exit, so that part definitely needs improvement. I bought almost everything in the store to try, and honestly, the one item I would absolutely go back for without hesitation is the kimchi croissant. It was unique, flavorful, and easily the standout item. The rest was okay. The lattes were also very small for the price of $7+. Overall, I think the place has potential, especially with items like the kimchi croissant, but they need to improve the parking flow, signage once the construction is complete.

    Ahma is singlehandedly the best coffee experience I've ever had in my life…read more Josh and team take care of you from the moment you walk into their home, where you not only feel like a valued customer, but a part of their family. Perhaps because, yes, it is their literal home (which, of course, has an incredibly relaxing vibe that provides the familiar feeling of visiting a relative or cousin's home, or perhaps dare I say, even "Ahma's" (Grandma's) home). Now to the actual bread and butter: the thoughtfulness of the pairings was next level. But that was somehow topped by the painstaking precision and craftsmanship of Josh and his coffees. He brews them all with not only the utmost accuracy of temperature and ratios, but provides unique and never-before-tasted flavors, with the greatest of passion poured into every drop. I mean, I swear you can taste the actual love he put in there. I highly, HIGHLY recommend this unique experience in the greater Los Angeles area. Ahma is THE BEST!

    Wow I'm blown away at how much fun I had at Ahma!!…read more Me and 3 friends (4 total) came for an amazing 5 course experience and it was so educational and new. We were hosted by Josh and Mei, who are both lovely people by the way, and we got to try a beautifully crafted 5 course tasting menu. The coffee pairing with small bites was very very cute and hearing Josh's inspiration behind each ingredient, dish, idea was so special. You can really tell the attention to detail - they provide lactaid when milk is present, there's optional ice cubes for certain drinks, the bathroom is fully stocked with hand towels, lotion, etc. and the space is very beautifully decorated to be warm and inviting. 100% recommend to whoever is planning a date, girls hangout, or if you and your friends just enjoy coffee. The whole experience is about 2 hours, you walk away learning so much, very full of delicious homemade food, and just super happy. There is only 1 gender neutral restroom as ahma is hosted inside a home. Shoes off at the door, they will give you clean indoor slippers. Parking on the street is free and easy.

The guava hojicha was also decent, the guava cream top had a fragrant guava flavor. When combined, it tasted extra roasty/grassy. The talam ubi tasted interesting.
