    It's always tea time... With this Pearlridge Shopping Center kiosk as it's basically right at the entrance of TJ Maxx location of the mall so it's almost the first thing you see or the last if you're exiting in that direction and for me it was on my way out lol! With a decent amount of options available at this mall Taste Tea seems to be one of the favorites as there's always someone there placing an order which is great and since it was a bit late I realize that it was almost closing tie and I felt bad that I just needed some tea to get me through the night as I still had ore things to do With that it was Peach Iced Tea with Boba and the staff was very polite as the person who was taking the order was busy assembling other items the guy making the tea took my order keeping the flow going is a great teamwork between the staffs is nice vibe to see and my tea was Taste-y as usual. Thank you!

    Taro milk tea blended with boba
    Mari T.

    Ok so it's been a while since I have gotten a bubble drink but I heard Taste Tea is good. I got the blended taro milk tea with boba and it was soooo refreshing I was in shock! The tea flavor wasn't too strong thankfully since I don't like tea. I mainly wanted a taro milk shake with chewy boba and that's what it tasted like! The boba texture was just right: not too starchy and not too gooey. I watched her make the smoothie and while it was the powder flavoring, it didn't taste chalky. Perfect for walking around the mall and sipping away. Before I knew it, it was gone! So much for saving some for my mom! They have a very extensive menu so I had a hard time deciding but it was between pudding milk tea blended and the taro and the cashier recommended taro. Good choice!

    The Pearl Ridge location usually has three staff running it efficiently. There's rarely a line. My go to flavors are taro, melon or matcha blended with LARGE boba. They never disappoint.

    Small boba
    Lauren L.

    Went about 7pm on Friday - they were out of the big boba - so I opted for the small boba instead. They gave me a small straw which cracked and as I drank all the tea . Also found a clump of the small boba on the bottom of the cup and it was just unacceptable. This location is usually good?

    Have you ever been wronged and wanted to make things right? Well after yesterday's disappointment, we wanted to go somewhere else for good service and good tasting milk tea. Ding, ding, ding, we got a winner! Must be #SensationalSunday! First, I have to give a big mahalo to the workers at Taste Tea. They were all friendly, helpful, and so quick! One of our beverages was filled and ready before I finished paying. Now that's service! More importantly, the full tea taste was in there. Not hidden with ice or water like yesterday at the other place. We were very satisfied with today's service and order. In fact, this was cheaper than the bad experience yesterday. Thank you again Taste Tea, we will be back!

    Taro Coconut Milk Tea with Molten Tapioca
    Charrissa N.

    This review is long overdue, but when I used to work at the mall, I would come here almost every day after work and order the Fruity Pebbles Milk Tea or the Taro Coconut Milk Tea with Molten Tapioca. The molten tapioca is my favorite drink add-on. It is warm and chewy and goes perfectly with the milk tea. The drinks here are good, and the service is fast. I have no complaints, but I do wish that there was a Taste Tea location in Kapolei!

    Does anyone know where did they move to? It not by the entrance anymore. Are they still in the mall?

    They were forced to move out of that space, so temporarily closed until they move to another location inside Pearlridge Mall. According to their Instagram page, they are planning to move to a kiosk that's next to TJ Maxx, between Moe's and BRUG…

It's .79/oz and that actually comes out to be very cheap. Lots of flavors like tart, banana, samurai vanilla, honeydew, lychee tart and others! Toppings include almonds, granola cracker, fresh fruit, cheesecake, sprinkles, and many more. It's an adorable dessert stop and would recommend. It was packed when we went! Would go back for a nice nighttime snack.

You grab a bowl, fill it with the soft serve of your choice and put on your toppings. It's charged by weight. It's $0.79 for an oz. When you check out, they put the bowl on the scale and they tell you how much your bowl is. Our bowl came out to 13.8 oz. and we paid around $11. The flavors they had today were vanilla, chocolate, coffee, yellow cake batter, strawberry, original tart, taro, lychee tart, Hawaiian Delight, Dole Whip, Samurai Blue Vanilla and Samurai Honeydew. We got the Hawaiian Delight and Dole Whip swirl topped with tiny mochi bits. Both of the flavors blended well. The Hawaiian Delight tasted like strawberry guava and on the sweeter side. The Dole Whip was pineapple and on the tart side. It was perfect on this hot day.

It was straight ahead as I was leaving the free shared parking lot. I had to stop my car, park, and go inside. Haha! Currently, there are three Sharetea shops on the Island of O'ahu: 1. Kahala Mall, Honolulu 2. Ala Moana Center, Honolulu 3. Waimalu Plaza, Aiea Sharetea spans across four continents (and 13 countries) as it has over 400 stores! I ordered one of the Top Ten beverages: Mango & Passionfruit tea, half sweet. It was still a bit sweet for me, but it got better after the ice melted! The nice gal at the counter was very efficient as she had to take orders, answer customer questions, and make drinks! Whew! She was observant because she commented on my cute plushies... LOL! Thank you! I wouldn't mind returning to this shop. Note: The points system (on the tablet) isn't working at the moment. Just save 15 paper receipts for a reward!

Taste Tea is located in Waikele Premium Outlet which is divided in to two section and Taste Tea is located in the area with Lowe's and Old Navy area and is found along the fence and not in the McDonald's food area. This tiny trailer does have it all like any full service store with menu filled with options for me it was the simple "Honey Iced Tea" and with the choice of teas it was Spring Tea my favorite with light sweetness was a nice and refreshing sip. The only downside is there not seating in this area regardless of the freeway vibe and is pretty much a grab and go situation though love the convenience of having this spot with lots of free parking does make very Taste Tea. Thank you!

Really disappointed. I went on a weekend (Saturday) and there was no one in front of me, so they should not be rushed or anything. I would expect better. The area is convenient and parking is plentiful, but I definitely don't recommend this place. One of the worst boba drinks I've had.
