My first impression when I walked in with my daughter was, "Wow! This place is clean and welcoming!" The barista was friendly and was able to answer my questions regarding the drinks I wanted to try, which helped me decide on a drink. It was my first time there so I wasn't familiar with their drinks. It was nice that they had other milk options. Also, that they can adjust the sweetness level. My drink was really good especially with the adjusted sweetness level. Although, I probably could've gone yet a little less. The crystal boba was the perfect texture and pop. As for my daughter's Okinawa brown sugar milk tea, she said it was perfect. The tea was good and the boba was just the right texture and chewiness. It could've been colder, though. We will definitely be back!! read more

I'm always excited to see new places pop up in South OC! Ordering on the app was a breeze, they have a great special going on with two dollar drinks. Be sure to take it vantage of that! The store is very clean and beautiful, service was great. They have a great variety of different drinks on their menu, we had four of the Vietnamese iced coffee's and enjoyed them very much. Highly recommended! read more

Love the lychee milk tea with boba! best place to get it. Cute boba shop and friendly staff!

Having now tried almost a dozen drinks here, I finally feel ready to write a review. Overall, I like that you can taste the tea in most drinks and that they fill your cup even when you ask for no ice (although milk latte drinks are not adjustable this way). I also like the smoothness of the milk tea drinks (no separated creamer here!) and the variety of drinks offered on the menu (including a $2 menu!). All the milk teas here are extremely smooth. They use a liquid creamer rather than a powder, so the creamer blends in well with the teas. Sometimes the creamer does drown out the tea taste, but you can order a fresh tea instead of a milk one. They brew the teas fresh, and you can definitely taste the tea in most of the milk tea flavors. 70% sweet works well if you like sweet (it's similar to 100% at other places); 50% sweet works better if you like less sweet. My favorite of the milk teas is the white peach oolong. The taro pearl milk tea is a bit of a miss for me because I prefer real smashed taro, and this one also tastes a bit too coconutty. The boba was also a little too soft (though it tasted great later after refrigeration which hardens it a bit). The creme brûlée and pudding drinks both came with such a small amount of topping that it's not really worth it to pay extra for them. The creme slushes are not my thing. I don't understand the creme addition, the ice slush melts too quickly, and the syrup is way too sweet even at 70% sweet. I much prefer Orobae's slushes that have well-ground fine ice without a dairy addition. The fruit teas are good with fresh slices or pieces of fruit in addition to fruit syrups (make sure you keep stirring or all the syrup ends up at the bottom of the cup). I prefer the Signature over the Strawberry. This is a great refreshing option without dairy! Service is friendly but extraordinarily slow as commented on by other reviewers. When I ordered in person, it took over 35 minutes to get my drinks. When I ordered via the app before store opening and set it for pickup at the first available time (10:20am even though they open at 9:00am), the drinks still weren't ready until just past 10:30am. So do not come here if you're in a rush! If you download the app, you can get 50% off your first app order. This coupon works on all drinks, in contrast to other coupons they've offered that have had some limitations (which were also sometimes not very easy to decipher at first glance). Overall, I do like having Presotea nearby as a boba option, and I will definitely come back for the white peach oolong milk tea and the signature fruit tea! read more

Just made it back today to redeem ...first i was told it expired (shows expiration of 7/22), and then i was told my drink was not part of the deal???? No where on this coupon does it say i need to order from the fresh tea menu. #presoteaca #presoteaus read more

Been trying boba places around the area and this place had the lychee that my nephews love, so it was perfect. We will definitely be coming back. Probably this weekend when my nephews come over! I ordered online and it was ready pretty quickly. read more

I'm happy they opened this up near me! I really do like it! Ive only had a couple drinks here and they've both been amazing. The peach oolong with cheese foam is my go to. I love the strong peach tea flavor and the creaminess that the cheese foam gives. I have also tried their Thai tea which tastes traditional. They have a lot of menu items to choose from like fresh fruit teas, milk teas, etc. I'd love to try more things by them! read more

Best iced tea in town, the passionfruit and the strawberry good service, nice environment, lovely staff

I'm so excited to have a place that actually has soft and chewy boba! New store in Foothill Ranch servicing Lake Forest and Portola Springs! Awesome service. Everyone was friendly and quick. I got a Roasted Hojicha Milk Tea and it was perfect. Not too sweet and I can actually taste the flavors. Come support this local business. read more

There's plenty of parking outside the plaza. The place is pretty big, but there's no indoor or outdoor seating available. Not sure if they're going to plan on having indoor seating since when we went, there were no chairs and tables inside. I tried their White Peach Oolong Milk Tea and it was so good and creamy. You could definitely taste the peach flavor, unlike other places, the peach flavor taste is pretty minimal. I also tried their Lychee Milk Tea, which was also pretty good. But between the two, my favorite is White Peach Oolong Milk Tea. Everyone wore masks and were really friendly. They also were helpful in answering some questions I had. Great service and drinks! Recommendation(s): - White Peach Oolong Milk Tea - Lychee Milk Tea Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - They accept Apple Pay - Plenty of parking outside read more

Wow. What a -latte. Their $2 deal is so worth it. Zomg. So good. Potatoe latte - who would've known? Omg. So Asian and yet so good. Love it. Keep the deal pls. Amaze balls ! read more

I came to this place just to use the restroom to be honest BUT I stayed for vibe of this place. I honestly ended up staying a whole hour, not Because of the bathroom lol but Becuase of how awesome this place was. It's small not to big but it reminded me of nice place to hang out. The video arcade games are free. You can play them for as long as you want, I believe they have 3-4 of them. The claw machines obviously cost $1, but they have chess, they have Total battle, among other games. After playing with all the arcade games I did become quenched so I ordered myself a drink. I would probably score it a 3/5 Because it was not as sweet as I would have liked it but that's my bad Because there were many other options I could have ordered. On the other hand my friend order a completely different drink (mango) and that was definitely sweet, therefore I will overlook my order.Overall I give this play 4.5 stars if I could. I will definitely be coming back. Everyone here was super nice and quick. read more

Sighs. Hate to reduce my rating. They took an online order which wasn't fulfilled at the pick up time. So I waited for an extra 15-20 and watched them make the tea and hand it to me. Didn't realize that one of my drink did not have boba. I called and they said thay they had run out of boba. Okay, so why not let me know this when you handed it to me? I could care less about the $0.75 or whatever they charge, but gee, at least let me know and try to offer an alternate at the time. Then they offered me a free drink if I come back. Why would I want another drink without boba? Out of principle I talked to the manager on duty. Long story short, she mentioned that they have a bad online vendor who doesn't return their calls so she can't get me a refund. She will try her best and that have the owner will follow up if nothing happens. Welp, its been about a month+, still waiting for my $0.75 refund and a call from the owner. ‍ The owner def doesn't have the time for this petty stuff. Now to Krak Boba a few miles down. read more

New to the area and daughter asked for boba (personally, don't understand the allure). Presotea happened to be relatively close, so decided to give it a try. (What does the name mean, anyhow?) After a quick five minute drive, arrived at a shopping center, but had a bit of trouble finding the place... As we walked in, we were greeted by a very bubbly lady/girl of indeterminate age(couldn't tell because everyone was wearing a mask). Explained that we were new and the lady/girl took her time to explain the menu and the variety of options that came with each drink. My daughter, the lover of everything boba, already new what she wanted, but I was lost. I explained that I didn't really like boba and she suggested Vietnamese ice coffee. I hadn't had my coffee yet, that ended up being my choice. I am rather picky when it comes to coffee, but the lady/girl went out of her way to meet my "demands." The drinks were good, but customer service was first rate! Oh, the server's name was Cate, I think. Or, Kate? Kit? Anyways, awesome experience and definitely will visit again. read more

Giving two stars because of their $2 promotions. Went there earlier in the summer to try different drinks - it was decent but not good enough to make me come back. Went there again yesterday because my girlfriend wanted to get boba. I got the vietnamese coffee. It was surprisingly good, so I went back to order two today - one for me and the pops. Not sure what happened, I got the same exact order as yesterday but the quantity decreased by half. Besides the small cup, look at how much ice is in it! One sip and it was gone. It was worth it yesterday but not even worth $2 today. The coffee was good though, especially at 70% sweet. I will be making vietnamese coffee at home now. read more

First time trying Presotea, feeling underwhelmed. Happened to be craving for Taro Milk Tea which is not my usual go to. Taro milk tea tasted water down.. and tapioca pearl tasted soggy. :( I was around the area so decided to give it a try... very disappointed in the quality. Their cups are flimsy compared to all the boba places I've had. Will not be returning. read more

They make you order everything yourself on the iPads then have the audacity to ask for a tip. The iPads are setup right at the entrance and the employees don't even great you. Literally the only interaction was the employee saying my name when my order was ready. That was it. What the hell am I tipping for? read more

The tea is delicious! My new favorite spot, love the variety. The tea gives the perfect amount of energy, and the fruity combos give it a fun twist. The vibes inside are very cool, and the claw machine is highly addictive... Beware was able to win some cute prizes too. The owner made my tea, very nice gentleman. read more

Fun ambience and delicious boba! Love brining my kid here to have fun and get yummy drinks.

They just opened 3 days ago, and their drinks are really good! They have a $2 menu of select drinks with free toppings, and their regular menu. They also have to-go menus at their counter, which Hyein helped me find, that were really helpful because there are a lot of options on the screen. they were missing the flan cafe frappe on their screen menu, but we found it on the paper menu. We decided on the flan cafe frappe, the creme brulee milk tea w/ boba, and the white peach oolong tea w/ coco lychee jelly. The boba was fresh, warm, and rlly soft. As my friend said about the flan cafe frappe upon first trying it, "that's good!!!! that's really f****** good!!!!" But yeah, everything's tasty, the staff are really chill, and their music taste is suuper good. read more

Was super excited to try this place. I see it whenever I'm in the area and had heard pretty good things about it. I had a brown sugar tea with panda boba. It was weak and the boba was not very good. I don't drink a lot of milk teas but I've tried pengo, share tea and ding tea enough to have formed an opinion. I'm bummed because they are right by the salon I get my pedi every two weeks and it would be nice to enjoy while having my toes down but I honestly Didn't even finish it. read more

Presotea is our favorite neighborhood boba! The ingredients taste fresh and the service is excellent. The staff always have great recommendations if you are unsure of what you'd like. Our favs are mango and strawberry cloud! Tasted like Häagen-Dazs ice cream in boba form! The owner, Scott, is super nice and loves to support his community. The store even works with the local schools when they have class parties! And even when it's packed and customers grow impatient, Scott is always nice to the customers and also his own staff. read more

Thieves! I placed an order online but they were closed when l went to pick up my order. It was Thanksgiving week so they had special holiday hours not noted on their online ordering service. I was disappointed, but these things happen. I called numerous times to make sure they didn't charge me. I never received a call back. Never received a refund. Buyer beware. read more

This is one of my fav tea places and mostly because of the pudding. The tea selection is pretty great and what you would expect for a Boba tea spot. I feel like this spot has a lot of interesting drinks I would like to try but I always just for for the black milk tea with pudding. read more

SLOWEST SERVICE ANYWHERE...drinks are good but I've never had to wait so long to get an order anywhere. We had to walk out without receiving our order. Time stamp on receipt was 1:39pm for two teas. Waited until 2:01pm and the person that had ordered ahead of us still didn't have their order either and every person that ordered while we were there was having to wait as long as us and complaining amongst themselves. As more orders came in the problem got worse. We really couldn't stay longer so we had to just leave without being able to have our drinks we paid for...just two teas! I've had their drinks and they are good, but the ridiculously slow service is a total deal breaker. This isn't an isolated incident. read more

Came here at 3:15 pm on a Friday. It wasn't really busy but it took them forever to prepare our 3 drinks. One of our drinks was prepared first and was just sitting on the pick up counter before they started preparing the other 2 blended drinks. When all 3 drinks were finally ready, the strawberry cloud wasn't filled to the top. Totally unacceptable. read more

Love presotea! We went for their grand opening and it was so many ppl waiting in line, we were one of them waiting for our boba drinks! lol! I love the avocado Mille green tea! That's my favorite, and they also have a $2 menu, I believe there are 6-7 drinks on that menu which is so amazing! $2 for a large drink, why not right? I would go there daily for that! Lol read more

Good, reliable quality tea. And staff is always friendly and generally quick with orders.

WOW THIS PLACE IS GREAT! I rarely write reviews, but we love the PresoTea in Foothill Ranch. We will drive past a half-dozen boba tea shops on the way to the FHR PRESOTEA. The tea is brewed freshly each time and the boba is made fresh on the premises. The staff is great and the owner runs it as a wonderful family business endeavor. I love supporting small family businesses that actually care about their customers. BTW, the coffees are excellent as well. It's well worth the distance for us as we savor every drop of deliciousness! Try it and you'll see for yourself what an marvelous experience it is. read more
