One of the OG tea shops in SGV and it's pretty hidden in a massive plaza. The plaza it resides in nowadays is not too busy, you'll often find tons of parking where Tastea is in the back. Their menu is huge and you could take a long time to even get through the entire thing. I recommend their matchas as one of their signature drinks. Staff here is great, they're very friendly and quick as well. My partner and my orders were out swiftly as we visited to get their BOGO on National Ice Tea Day. Portions are huge which was a shocker to me even though I've seen the cups before. Very refreshing although it's the ice tea tasted bitter for some parts. Overall, decent drinks, and definitely a spot you can visit if you want variety of drinks. read more

Had the Taro Fantasy and it was a Fantasy indeed. It took me to a place I've never been before and it was Delicious! I love Taro so much that I guess you can say that I'm kind of addicted to it lol. Plenty of parking spaces in the Plaza area here. Plenty of drink choices and flavors to try. Would highly recommend this place to all who is searching for a "Tastea" drink. Service was very good here. They pretty much helped me on things to try but I just wanted my Taro lol. read more

I really like Tastea for all their drinks and snacks. As for the drinks, they give a good amount of toppings and they have a strong tea flavor. It doesn't taste watered down at all. Tastea is 626 OG staple and I really appreciate the affordability, efficiency in receiving the items, and the fact that you can just chill at the store. There's a good amount of seating and they provide games as well. Not pictured but I do really enjoy their snacks as well. Their popcorn chicken, fries, and newest pizza rollz are delicious. They're hot and fresh and packed with so much flavor. It's perfectly crispy which makes them my favorite guilty pleasure snack to enjoy accompanied by the boba. read more

I used to go to Tastea all the time when I lived in Orange County, but since SGV is saturated with boba places, coming here is a rarity unless I'm grocery shopping. I was specifically craving their peach me sweetea though, so I had to scratch that itch. This particular location is nice and clean, and the bobaristas quickly took and made my order. I docked a star off, though, because my partner ordered a simple jasmine green tea, and it seemed like it was severely oversteeped. read more

I have been to this shop off and on, mostly when shopping at the 99 Ranch, which is adjacent. I like that the staff is very ready to answer questions about the drinks, making recommendations and making sure you enjoy what you ordered. Also a plus for me that their base creamer is non-dairy, and not with an extra charge. Most recently I tried their Vietnamese ice coffee with banana foam. My understanding is that they use fresh banana and banana pudding in the foam. It's an unexpected combination to me, but it works well. They also helped me adjust the amount of sweetness since the banana foam is sweetened. The coffee is strong and it's really nice to have fresh flavors vs. a syrup. It's a great stop for a treat. read more

really appreciated the kindness from Vernice. She was very kind, polite, and she did helped us out.

I came here twice and both experiences were pretty questionable. I first tried the matcha strawberry. The strawberries were SO sour which makes me question where they got them. The strawberry layer was kind of small so maybe this was a good thing, but the whole milk they use was not my favorite. I got it with honey boba as well, which wasn't chewy at all. Safe to say this isn't one I would recommend. On my second visit I got the lychee peachie, and this was a slightly better experience. My only major complaint is that the lychee bits contained some pieces of the shell which is not edible at all. The quality of the lychee was alright - at least they weren't sour like the strawberries. The tea itself was very artificial tasting - not that much different from an iced tea you could buy at a restaurant. read more

Honestly I don't know why I don't go to tastea more often. Their employees are always so nice and have such great customer service. My orders are always complex. When you have kids at different age ranges you have to customo drinks. I get a 32oz Thai Tea for my husband and I to share! Honestly I love the fact it's so big! Passion attraction - regular size and sweetness - my daughter enjoys this very much and has been her go to. Amazing Strawburst - 75% sweet my middle daughter loves this and the jellys are not that sweet so it balances the sweetness out more. Lychee Freeze - 50% sweet comes with lychee bits and lychee jelly. My youngest (6) loves this but there are too many chuncks for her. I suggest to avoid for younger children. I ended up just letting her eat it with a spoon. She actually enjoyed it better this way! It's always clean inside with plenty of seats. The downside which doesn't take away from the 5 stars is the chicken was a bit on the salty side. read more

Decided to stop in for a little treat post-grocery shopping at 99 Ranch. The selection here is ginormous so we went back and forth a bit. We ordered the Lychee Peachee large with 50% sweet and less ice. The staff asked if we would like a tea top-off since we were getting less ice which was actually very nice. The drink itself even 50% sweet was still too sweet for me, likely from the lychee bits so I would probably get 0% next time. The portion is very generous! Staff were very friendly too. read more

This tastea is in a plaza that has a lot of other food options and smells wafting in the air. But it's a good choice for boba or for hanging out. They have a couple tables and benches inside as well as some outdoor furniture but it's best for small groups only. Parking is plentiful! The store associates are helpful with questions because the menu is so large and drinks come out fast. read more

Once upon a time, I got a drink from Tastea (diffferent location) and never came back. I didn't like the flavor of the teas and thought I could taste tap water. It all tasted very artificial. HOWEVER, Tastea was smart enough to come up with sugar and milk substitutes for a low calorie and sugarfree drinks! That meant that my diabetic mom and my friends who are on the keto diet can all enjoy a little something. In support, I got the stevia in my drink and was surprised that it was actually pretty good. I'm also glad I adjusted the sweetness to 50% stevia as it was already sweet enough for me. Although this is not my go to tea spot, I do like the fact that I can enjoy drinks with friends and family who have dietary restrictions. These little treats are what makes us all happy! read more

Stopped by for a pick-me-up treat. Ordered the Jujutsu Rice Bowl & Peach Oolong Milk Tea with Crystal Boba. The rice bowl was pretty good, but not great. The karate chicken and wu sauce were good together, but the rice and corn were very disappointing. There weren't enough wu sauce for all the chicken pieces. Don't think I would order this rice bowl again. Will just get the karate chicken on its' own. The peach oolong milk tea with crystal boba was really good and had the right amount of flavor and sweetness. Quick and friendly service as usual. Still giving them a 4 stars since it's always cool to try a new menu item. I usually order their fruit teas, but wanted to try something different this time. They're still one of my favorite boba tea shop in SGV! read more

If I could give this place more than five stars, I would. I ordered the calamari and fries, and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the best I've ever had. The calamari was perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, not greasy at all, and seasoned just right. The fries were hot, fresh, and dangerously addictive. You know it's good when you stop talking and just focus on eating--that was me. Tastea absolutely nailed it. I came hungry and left impressed. I'll be back, and next time I'm bringing people so I can say "I told you so." read more

This place is pretty spacious and has tables and chairs which my friends and I like to play card games at. I tried their avocado smoothie and it was not bad at all! They use fresh avocado. It's a bit pricey but I think for the size they give, it's pretty worth it! I will be back to try their other menu items! read more

This is a really good classic boba spot. They have almost anything for everyone to enjoy, all their drinks are very unique and delicious. They have consistency on their drinks, I like how you can customize some of the drinks to your preference. I like their Tiger milk tea but turn it into a slushy/ smoothie and it's an up charge but I don't mind. Also their little snacks and foods are usually pretty good, they have added more new food items recently. I personally love their buttload fries & fried chicken. They have plenty of parking in this plaza w/ the market & jollibee. There's 3 small tables inside, and about 2 tables for outdoor seating. The workers are usually very nice and fast, because I love quick service & efficiency. They have 2 sizes for drinks. Ones a standard small and the other large is 32oz which is kind of like an xtra large size. read more

Drinks are consistently good, specifically the Strawberry Sensation (my ult fave) and any of the Speacialtea.

Geeze tastea really lost its standard. Used to frequent this company when it opened in rowland heights over a decade ago. Workers used to be polite and welcoming. Called around 730 on Presidents' Day just to inquire if they still had boba in stock. Worker who answered the phone gives me a "nah we not serving that today". Apparently having things in stock is just optional now a days. Worker couldn't even give me a fake "so sorry we ran out" Looks like this location just hired people based on availability not if they're actually competent for the job. read more

I was excited to come in today, this was my second time trying this place out, but after todays experience it's going to be the last. When i ordered my drink, the girl at the register had an attitude right from the beginning, and when I gave a cash tip, she didn't even say thank you nor care that I gave them money. I ordered the fries and a Banana Coffee, the fries were extremely spicy. I asked for a level 3 heat and they gave me a level 5. That was the least of it because the real issue was the drink I received. It was flooded with bitter coffee. I have had the same drink made by a different employee a few days earlier and it tasted totally different. I approached the counter to have her assist me but she noticed me and ignored me. The nice man felt bad for me for being ignored and came to help me instead. I believe perhaps he was the owner. He did a great job. The drink was still bad and horribly made but that is the girls fault. Please train your employees properly when it comes to customer service and making your signature drinks. Even though the other employee put more of the banana cream, the drink was still discarded. If it was originally made correct, there wouldn't be an issue. read more

We drove really far out for this location since there are none nearby and this is the closest but still a good 40 min drive. I needed my coffee fix and luckily they had coffee here since not all boba shops do. Parking lot is huge, it's next to a market along with some other shops and food spots in this plaza. I went for their Vietnamese Iced Coffee and my bf got the Classic Milk Tea which came with their holiday boba pearls. Super cute decor inside and great sized boba cups. Didn't wait very long for our drinks and I was super excited to try it. Their Vietnamese coffee and classic milk tea are great! My only gripe is their boba pearls. Super soft, TOO soft, barely any chew which made me really sad. I'm glad the drinks tasted good at least! But definitely wish the pearls were chewier. Other than that, it was nice to visit a Tastea boba shop again since I haven't been in years! read more

Came in at 4:05pm on 4/30 to order two drinks and popcorn chicken. The tall, thin man at the register could not be bothered to provide any type of customer service. He had a hard time showing the different size containers, seemed annoyed, then we tried to pay with large bill and was told "we dont take those". No eye contact the entire time. Totally threw us off, we had a child with us and it just wasn't a friendly environment. Not spending money here. read more

I think after craving this specific Golden boba and milk tea combination it is safe to say that Tastea is one of my favorite Boba spots. The milk tea is always rich and earthy. The Boba is chewy and subtle in sweetness. The service was quick and efficient and I have always been greeted upon arrival. I have other Boba spots near me, but I have found myself going out of my way to have Tastea. So will continue to support:) read more

New location, awesome atmosphere, great food.

I personally recommend the pork with tofu and the bossam dishes. read more

Went in tonight and was pretty disappointed. There was no greeting at the register, and the cashier (hala. B) just gave me the "blank stare". I ordered two drinks, including a Tiger Boba, which came out missing the brown sugar drizzle. When I pointed it out, I was told it could be added as if I was asking for something "extra," even though it's part of the drink. After they added it, I left but came back because the drink was very watery and had almost no tea flavor. At that point I was over the entire service, I asked for a refund. Ended up getting a great oolong tea with custard down the street instead. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if I'll be returning. read more

Serious hit and miss at this tastea. Been to the ones in the OC...no problem. But this one? Usually misses. Ordering drinks here is never consistent...drink order comes out very different every time. Even with order today...drink wasn't even sweet, when ordered to full sweetness. Didn't discover until I was home and had it. What a mess. And be sure to tip...otherwise your order can and will be compromised. Forgetting to do that today was a definite show of what they will do with your order. read more

One thing I always forget about Tastea is how sweet the drinks are. Even at 0% sugar, the drinks are often almost unbearably sweet, which is unfortunate. I ordered ahead, and my drink (The Unknown, passion fruit and mango black tea with crystal boba), was made and ready. The staff were super friendly, and when I told them that they forgot to add the crystal boba to my drink, they quickly fixed the problem. Even if I lived closer to a Tastea location, it probably wouldn't be a staple, just because of how overly sweet the drinks are, but the crystal boba texture is top tier. read more

I LOVE Tastea fries and this location has NEVER disappointed with them. We all know Tastea drinks are quite tasty indeed, but the fries are the real deal here. I would come just for the fries alone. They added in flavors for the fries and I tried the jalapeno lime. However, I think the original is just slightly better. I'd come back to try the other flavors though! Not pictured, but my typical order would be a bootea shaker (no sweet, which is still slightly sweet) with longan bits. If you haven't had Tastea before, my tip is to try to get your drinks 50% sweet because it's actually pretty hard to tell that it's 50% (you'll save yourself some calories from the reduced sugar without even noticing it!). Anywho, I love this location, especially because I can shop for groceries at 99 ranch while my order is being prepared. Also, everyone has been pretty friendly at this location. read more

My brother and I came for drinks on a hot sunny day. We were greeted by Taylor who was very knowledgeable on her drinks in helping us decide what we wanted. As soon as our drinks were ready my brothers drink wasn't sweet enough for him. Alec without hesitation gladly accept to make him another drink and let us keep the first drink. When my drink was ready Taylor offered me an extra drink no charge I gladly accepted. The drinks and food were amazing. The customer service alone will have be coming back here ! This will definitely be our boba spot ! Thank you Alec and Taylor for being amazing ! read more

I love a good iced tea refresher and this place hit the spot. I ordered a custom flavored iced tea with black tea, passion fruit flavoring, and 100% sweetness ($5.20). I usually order my drinks 75% sweet and will definitely do that next time since I'm not that big on sweetness. The workers were nice and I received my order pretty quickly. Many people were coming in, but the staff was great on keeping everything in order. There was a good amount of seating and everything looked clean. I will definitely be coming more often! :) read more
