I stop by here whenever I'm in town and they're always freaking busy! I personally love this spot mainly because of all the fresh fruit they have available. I'm not really a boba guy, even though I have a sweater from Boba Guys. Lol, so if you're like me, you're gonna love this place! The store is super small and has one long bench along the wall that you can sit at. If it's filled, then you just gotta awkwardly stand in front of people, super fun tbh. They have cleverly named drinks, like Bootea. Who doesn't like some bootea? Not much else to say really. Oh, the service is friendly and quick! It's like a sweat shop for tea! Overall, I like it here. Solid place for some tasty tea. Always coming back. read more

Tastea - Passion Attraction with strawberries and peach! And my gizzard pho, heck yes. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Drinks have always been pretty great. Just noticed there has been uptick trend on getting bamboozled on the calamari and popcorn chicken. Seriously?? $7 for a few pieces of popcorn chicken? Even $10 for a small few pieces of calamari? I remember when Tastea would give the mini buckets for popcorn chicken or fries. Now I wouldn't ever come back for anything else besides the drinks. Thanks for helping me save money! read more

The drink is oddly kinda thick and there's globs of ube powder that haven't been mixed in properly lol The popcorn chicken is rly good but there's not a lot of it The staff were cool tho yall did a good job on hiring read more

Boba is​ very sweet. Prices are high. Seatings and parking, hardly any. It is for the convenience of locating next to the hair salon that we went to this Boba Shop. The menu​ is​ too large, meaning there are too many options. My eyes are diverted all over the place. Sometimes for smoothies, ​it is okay to keep it at a simple pace. Young customer service servers are nice, no rude experiences. I order the avocado drink which was very sweet with the honey boba (extra costs) but it was sweet. It was tasty and deserving three stars just for the drink. This establishment is fairly narrow and more on a rectangular shape. Seating is just a long bench. I see it more of as a hole in the wall and would only come to this establishment because it is convenient, I would not go out of my way to drive to Tastea. The parking is in a shared plaza with other facilities. Might not ever get to park directly in front of Tastea. It is small, but the smoothie is good establishment is small but clean. I just find the price to be overpriced and this place is filled with teenagers. Don't let me stop you from trying the avocado. But there are tons of places to get smoothies and Milk Tea! read more

Growing up, I would avoid tastea bc it was too expensive. Now that I have money it is still expensive. $7 for a drink and $11 for popcorn chicken. That's a whole ass meal. However they have some of the best popcorn chicken around. Fruit drinks are pretty good but I would stay away from the milk tea. read more

I am surprised that I never left a review for this. This is the Tastea that we always went to whenever we were in SoCal. We loved it so much that we'd order jugs and drive them back to NorCal. My go-to drink is the peach me sweetea. It's peach & strawberry black tea with fruit bits. It's the perfect drink on a hot summer day! If you want boba, get the honey boba, their most popular topping. read more

We always seem to crave boba drinks. Not all of them are created equal, especially in regards to the fruit slushies. It usually puts me off to see them use powder or syrup with artificial coloring. Such was not the case at Tastea. I watched as they pureed the strawberries (don't recall if they were frozen) into a delicious cold beverage. A fresh wholesome drink for the hot days of SoCal. I had the strawberry and lychee chunks with honey boba. It had to be the best blended drink I've had in a long time. The green boba created a nice visual effect I'm sure would make it fun for kiddies to marvel at. The drinks come in 3 sizes: mini, gigantic ($4), little more. There's also a one gallon jug option for $19. read more

Tastea - Strawberry lychee with honey boba (gigantic size, $4) - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Garden Grove, California

I was again torn between a 3 and a 4. This place is small, no where to sit on the inside and the line on a Sunday afternoon was LONG. PARKING: There's a big lot since it's in a plaza. WAIT: Again, it was a long wait and they take a while to make the drinks. FOOD: I got the Peach Me Freezie which comes with Peach and Strawberries blended into a slush type form with bits of the fruit in the drink. They have "honey boba" now but to be honest it didn't taste all that different and it wasn't as chewy as I like my boba. BUT they are green!! Both the regular and the honey boba :) *note, the other day I came back and had the regular boba - DEFINITELY not the same. It has ZERO flavor/sweetness. Get the honey boba, even if it doesn't taste like "honey boba" it tastes like NORMAL boba, so get it anyway. I think I'd recommend getting the slushes/smoothies here. You can tell they are fresh and refreshing (they have watermelon during the summer!) and aren't too sweet or fake/syrup-y tasting. But I tried my boyfriend's green milk tea and it was pretty good too. Overall, try this place! Just be prepared for a wait and get the slushy freeze or smoothies :) read more

Boba fix! I have been to various tastea locations and I think this one is my favorite location, I've never had a bad experience here and they make your drinks very well, the boba is always on point, great spot for yummy drinks and chicken snack. My GO TO drinks are definitely the Thai milk tea, taro milk tea, taro fantasy, strawberry ecsteasy, strawberry sensation, and bootea shaker, all with honey boba, oh yes! And definitely try the kickin chicken, level 3! Perfect amount of spice! If you want your tongue to burn get level 5, yum! Tastea will always be one of my boba spots for sure! :) Happy eats, loves! ^_^ read more

This place seems to be very busy in the afternoon. When we arrived, there was already a line out the door. Yet, props to their fast service during the rush, we didn't have to wait long for our drinks and food. On our first visit, we got a small lychee peachee, a large watermelon dreaming drink, and a #3 karate chicken with weak sauce. Everything was really good, the drinks were perfect and the chicken tasted great. However, on our second visit before we left town, we decided to get a small lychee peachee and a small peach me sweet tea. Both were overly sweet. It seemed like there was way too much sugar in there, and we couldn't even finish half of our drinks before tossing it. The lychee peachee barely had any lychee bits in there either. It was pretty disappointing. However, being our first experience was pretty great, I decided to rate this place one star higher than I would have. They have a large selection of drinks which is a plus. Not really a place to hang out because there isn't much space and seating. read more

Although the bay has Tastea now, I had to go with Phillip L. because he's never been and we were close by. Prices have definitely gone up from $3-4 to $4-6 in the last five years! Artisan teas (20oz for $4.25 or 32oz for $6) are still tasty and refreshing. However, I'm now a bigger fan of their smoothies (20oz for $4.60 or 32oz for $6.35) and slushy freezes (20oz for $4.45 or 32oz for $6.20). My favorites? The Peach Me Freezie or Lychee Freeze. Perfect for a hot day! read more

An OG favorite. Delicious, good service and great items. I love that they have wellness drinks for people who can't or don't take sugar! I just wish the wellness drink options were a little more clear on which items have no sugar at all. read more

Definitely one of the best boba spot in all of OC! Tastea is undoubtedly the BEST place for fruit teas and smoothies. The drinks are always refreshing and delicious! They also have the best honey boba I've ever had, perfectly soft and chewy with the right amount of sweetness. My top favorite drinks: (approx. $4.50 for a 20 oz./ $6.00 for a 32 oz.) -Lychee Peachee: black tea based lychee flavored drink with fruit bits! -Avocado Avalanche: AMAZING avocado smoothie, always has great consistency. (but depending on who makes it, some days it's stronger than others) -Mango All The Way: mango slush w/ raspberry syrup and mango bits -Mango Lemonade: seasonal (spring), great if you want something nice and refreshing! **However, I would advise to stray away from any of their milk teas, they usually taste watered down and lack in flavor. Stick with the fruit drinks. Karate Chicken ($5.25): amazing seasoning, and the chicken is very juicy and tender. Honestly, the only thing that could make it better is if it were crispier. Buttload'a Fries ($4.00): great flavor and crispiness, but it can be a little salty. I'd recommend splitting this with a friend since although it's good, you do get tired of it after a while I really love Tastea, but it is true that they've been getting stingy with their products over the years. The amount of popcorn chicken they give now has obviously gotten smaller, and drink prices are always rising. -Parking: very crowded plaza, but I can usually find parking easily in the area to the right of Tastea -Restroom: yes, available towards the back of the store -Seating: there's a bench inside but it's more a place just to wait for your order, not a place to sit and hang out. Most people just order and leave but if you really want to stay they have two small tables outside. -Service: always nice and friendly, they usually call the orders fairly quickly (approx. 5 mins if you order a drink and approx. 10 mins for food) however, if you order online you can skip the line! But overall, one of the best boba spots I've been to-- amazing food, perfect boba, and great drinks!! read more

Nice tea shop. Will come here again. D R I N K S I got the Yummy Gummy and my boyfriend got the Avocado Avalanche. Mine was nice but like a lot of icy drinks, the juice and the ice separated very easily and it was difficult for me to drink. (I had to jiggle the straw around a lot to mix it all together.) It tasted too sweet and artificial for me. I won't get that one again. I liked the Avocado Avalanche though. F O O D We got medium spicy popcorn chicken. Good, but way too many batter pieces and not enough chicken. I think though the drinks and spicy chicken were a good combination. S E R V I C E Great. The had a lot of people working while we were there so we got our drinks and food in a timely manner. They were very nice too! S E A T I N G None, except a really long bench lining the wall. And one tiny table outside. Not really good for hanging out and sitting down face to face with a friend to meet up. Interesting layout, probably a little confusing for first time customers. To order, you need to walk all the way to the back read more

The best boba joint hands down :) I usually come here with a group of friends after Boiling Crab or if we're around the area. Not only do they offer a wide array of tea drinks, but they also have yummy smoothies, refreshing slushies, and shaved ice!! Plus they have a lot of add-ons that'll make your drink tastier :) ....and the chewy green boba inside the colorful drink just makes it even better. Prices are very good. Most of the drinks are around $3-$5. The classic drinks are a bit cheaper of course. So far, I've tried their peach me sweet tea, bootea shaker, strawberry ecsteasy, tootea fruitea, and some of their classic drinks (Taro, Thai). All of them are oh so tastea! (haha!) I really don't think you can go wrong with any drink here. They're perfectly blended, and have the same consistency every time I order. Tastea has the best customer service compared to other boba places. I've always been greeted with a smile when I enter, and the cashier is super duper friendly even though I would stare blankly at the menu, not knowing what to order. Although there's usually a line, the wait isn't too long. It's always cold inside the store, so its not too bad! There's only two stores right now - Garden Grove and Orange :( You guys seriously need to expand to Torrance, or any area near me :P You'll make bank for sure! If you haven't been here yet, you must try it. It's 309472309x better than TapEx, Lollicup, Quickly, Tea Station, blah blah blah. TRY IT NOW. You'll love it, I promise :) read more

Love the green pearls. However the last time that I went I asked for regular pearls and I got a mixture of the honey and regular pearls. I am a fan of the slushies more so than the tea. However I have also tried the tea and the peach me sweet tea is good. As for slushies, I love the mango all the way. I love the pieces of mango inside. Sometimes the pieces are like green mango and are chewy. The customer service is pretty good. They also have stamp cards which attracts me to come back more and more. read more

Tasty is pretty good for fruit drinks. They have lychee, peach, strawberry fruit bits that are very fresh. I feel like they've gotten more expensive throughout the years. This used to be my favorite place but because of the price I go elsewhere. The milk teas aren't as famous as their fruit teas. Fruity booty is pretty good. read more

Honestly, pretty expensive but in my opinion it's worth it. I usually get the peach me tea!! I like peach tea and the mini add ons. I like the big size because I can always save it for the next day but if you like smaller sizes and cheaper options, this isn't really the place for you. Their fruit teas are pretty popular. Ever since they changed the boxes of their popcorn chicken, there is less chicken but the prices are still expensive :( read more

If you're part of the ube hype (I know I am, ube coffee is a GAME CHANGER) Tastea just added ube milk tea to their menu! To be clear, ube is not taro, and Tastea offers BOTH taro & ube milk teas. I found the taste similar to the taro milk teas I've had in the past, but butterier. I got mine with half sugar and it was still on the sweeter side for me, so in the future, I'd go with 1/4 sugar! Don't forget to get an order of their fries or Karate Chicken with your bobz! Their popcorn chicken is breaded perfectly & their fries are coated with "tastea dust" and it's ALL SO TASTEA read more

Drinks: ordered a 20oz Peach Me Sweetea w/ honey boba + rainbow jelly & 32oz green tea w/ honey boba. Both delicious and refreshing and so yummy! I love how colorful the drinks are and the fact that their HONEY boba is so sweet! Boba here is my favorite boba since it's noticeably fresh & chewy (not stiff) which is how boba should be. The boba here isn't too small or too big either, as it's just he perfect size. Service: extremely quick, probably because I arrived before rush hour on the weekend. Staff was friendly & on top of things. Got our drink super fast (within 5min of ordering). Atmosphere: this Tastea isn't one of those hipster boba places you can sit down & study or do homework at, mainly b/c there's no seating here for such things, & it's very noisy because of how small the place is & the music they play is extremely loud (you've to really speak up when ordering). A great place to order yummy & refreshing drinks after getting a big meal elsewhere. Parking here is never an issue for me since I always manage to find a spot. read more

A new pioneer in the boba world. They were the first ones to put boba in something other than milk tea. The boba is amazing. It's chewy, sweet, and is perfectly cooked to perfection. Everything you need for perfect boba. And a few nice touches are that the boba is GREEN and they have multiple flavors/types. Honey boba, Regular, and crystal. read more

A tasteful fruity blend and not too sweet. Today is the first time I had the 32 oz. size and, man, it is overwhelming... ly AMAZING. It's the perfect balance of avocado and sweetness today.

I love Tastea! This was my first time at this location and wasn't surprised that it seemed really busy. There's a line just to order but it goes by very fast. After you order, you can just sit down on the bench which lines the sides. Minutes later, our drinks were ready! I ordered the medium sized Peach Me Sweet Tea with Boba. I love ordering this because it has chunks of strawberries and peaches floating around and when I sip my drink, I always catch some fruit along with my tea which adds a burst of flavor. I love the boba which is green chewy goodness. I guess if I were to order again, I'd proably as for a little less ice and maybe a little less sweet. But I seriously have no complaints. I loveee this place! read more

One of the best drinks i've ever tried! This place is so clever on how they created their drinks and the names of the drinks are amusing. Things i tried: Peach me sweet tea: strawberry, mango bits with green boba and the peach drink itself. Delicious and refreshing! Not too sweet, nor not too bland. Just the right amount of flavor. The wow: the lychee bits made this drink delicious! it actually wowed me with the burst of lychee. This place is just plain delicious! Great friendly service, but slow. I wanted to try the karate chicken, but they ran out that day. I would definitely come back and try other flavors. read more

I love this place! I wish we had one in San Diego. Whenever I'm in Orange County, I make sure I squeeze in a little time to stop by for a drink at Tastea. I typically get the Peach Me Sweet Tea.

I love the fact that they have sizes of varying degrees: mini, gigantic, even more, partea jug. The prices are $1.65, $3.25, $3.65, $19.95, respectively. For this location, you can only have it to go since there really isn't any place to sit and chill. The line was fast moving since there was a steady stream of people coming in and out. They have a good variety to choose from, and I think I ended up getting something with strawberry in it that my friend recommended. Strawberry ecsteasy I think. It was pretty good too. And I swear I hate the fact that they charge you extra for topioca. :( Overall, this is a good place for good boboa that's fairly cheap. read more

First time at tastea and I do have to admit service here is great! Their menu is very extensive which cause me to order 2 drinks for myself, I just couldn't decide. My order for myself and kiddos: A gigantic peachme sweetea: it included strawberry and peach pieces but didn't have any tea flavor and was WAY too sweet! Luckily I asked for a cup of ice and added that as I drank my drink to water it down. A gigantic watermelon heaven: I didn't try it but my son said he enjoyed it (but then again he didn't finish it hmmmm). A mini (especially great that they offer minis perfect for my toddler) strawberry swinger: it's basically a lemonade slushy w bits of fresh strawberry. Again SUPER sweet! And lastly I ordered myself mini mango all the way: consist of mango slush and raspberry slush. VERY, VERY sweet. I only took a couple of sips and tossed it. Great value. Maybe I ordered wrong? Is there a sweetness level? If not they should offer one. read more

Tastea is always a solid choice for fruity teas because it's reasonably priced and yummy! You don't have to add toppings into most of the fruity teas because they already have some sort of topping such as fruit toppings and boba in them. Even though the drinks are good, I think that most of them kinda taste the same so I guess you can't really choose a bad tea LOL The food here is good though, you definitely get your moneys worth when you get any of the food items!! read more

Karate chicken is amazing!! Jasmine milk tea was so so... too milky for me. The peachy lychee is delicious. Real pieces of lychee!

I am sorry but I had to write this review. I came here since I was like around 6-8 years old which is like 13-15 years ago. I always go to this place and it was like the place I would always go to for my boba. Throughout the years, the chicken has been increasing in price which is reasonable but quality, is pretty bad. Most of the "Karate Chicken" you receive are basically batter, barely any chicken at all. Today I came back to just get Karate chicken since I haven't ate it for awhile and this has to be one of the most ridiculous thing that they did. They now have 2 options size for the Karate Chicken and Spicy Shrimp or whatever, "regular" or "Large". I promise you, when you look at the size of the regular for the food, it look like it was for a toddler or a kid. The "Large" size was basically what they gave us back then and now they overcharged it 5 dollars more, basically for regular. I didn't take a photo of the "regular" and "large" boxes in display but I did take a photo of their new price change. If you do go to this place, look at the ridiculous price and the size of the box for your food. Photo in the bottom is an example of the box. Basically the same. I even look at the cashier and was like, "Really?" So shameful a beloved place now has to be money hungry goblins. read more
