i found a piece of metal in my drink food: 1/5 it was pretty good until the metal piece :/ also it had a lot of chunks of ice. ambiance: 1/5 no sitting area to enjoy. just a long bench to wait to pick up orders service: 2.5/5 mid. pretty standard. not bad, not good. price: 1/5 pricey considering how the quality is bad. no quality check or awareness that they put a piece of metal in my drink that i could have swallowed. overall: 1/5 just very disappointed and scared that i couldve (potentially) scratched my throat with that metal thing. read more

I'm visiting from the Bay Area and was craving one of my favorite boba places, so I had to try Tastea down here. The store was super clean, festive for Halloween, and even the boba was orange to match the season! I tried a new drink, the Peach Oolong milk tea and it's my new favorite. I ordered it less sweet and it definitely brought out the taste of the oolong- which I love. Tastea is one of the very few drink franchises that is consistently good across locations. read more

Rem is the star of my review! He was super friendly and accommodating to what we asked for! He was super welcoming from the very beginning! We didn't like the way our drinks tasted so he offered to remake us different ones! of course we apologized because we didn't want to be those types of customers but our drinks didn't taste like usual. but he constantly assured us it was not a problem at all. i'm pretty sure His name was rem if not ur was the guy working around 8-9 pm on this past tuesday! read more

Tastea a boba brand that is pretty consistent. They execute well on fruity drinks and teas. The milk teas lack a lot of flavor from every location I've been from NorCal to SoCal. I think if the brand spends some time to redo their milk drinks, they'd be better in respect to be in the the top of others. The best drink hands down is the Strawberry Ecstasy. It's Guilt free drug less sweet and packs a ton of flavor, just the right amount to get your dopamine levels going. It's a drink to have everyday. read more

It's honestly a hit or miss with chicken from here. Either really good or just not good. Today it was a miss. The Popcorn Chicken was all crumbs and crispies with little chicken! It wasn't all that tasty either. There are definitely more reliable places, but this location is just convenient. read more

NEVER AGAIN. The worst food poisoning of my life. I would give this place a -100 if I could. I ordered the fries, shrimp and karate chicken for dinner and a few hours later I started to get sick. By 2 am I was vomiting my guts and the toilet was my best friend. They gave me food poisoning. A trip to urgent care and a week of being sick asf later I'm finally feeling better. read more

I love their popcorn chicken. I get the spiciest level and it's actually spicy. Also get it with the sweet and sour sauce. It can get busy during the weekend. If you want you can place a pick up order online. read more

First time trying this place. I ordered the peach me sweet tea. I didn't order from the app but I only waited a few mins for my drink. I also ordered the karate chicken (like popcorn chicken) in medium kick. For me, I think it was very spicy. Parking: plenty in the lot Service: fast and friendly I will definitely come back to try the other drinks on their menu. read more

This review is for their avocado shake. I've tried dozens of avo shakes at many places, and so far, Tastea's avo shake is the best! No other place comes close. The recipe is perfect, especially when avocado chunks are added. It has the right amount of ice and sweetness. You really taste the fresh avocados, not just the flavored powders like at some other places. And it's always consistently yummy every time! The drink is not cheap but not expensive either. With the freshesh ingredients and the perfect recipe, it's totally worth every penny. Next time, I'm getting my family all avocado shakes and 2 for myself hahaha. It's too good. read more

I love this place, I've been coming here since I was a teen and had an addiction for like 4 years lol. The staff were always super nice and attentive at pickup. 5 stars for service! The drinks are amazing. I highly recommend the water based fruit teas or the slushies. They never failed me. I also love the packaging! The dino is super cute! The app has great deals/events (they have a Bday deal, yay!) and the popcorn chicken is always top tier as well. That said, I'm removing 2 stars bcs I got food poisoning from this location around 7 times T-T. Twice, it was so bad I projectile vomited alot. My family members recently got food poisoning from here too but they don't tolerate these cases (no matter how good the food is, unlike my weird self) so we've stopped visiting here entirely. I noticed it's usually the milk teas that are bad for the gut. I'm not lactose intolerant so I assume it's the milk tea's ingredients that may be a bad combo or the milk isn't taken care of. If you have a sensitive stomach, maybe skip the visit. read more

Tastea is one of my favorite boba shops and the drinks don't disappoint! I got the avocado avalanche, mango milk tea, lychee peachee, and strawberry milk tea! I always get 1/2 sugar and no or less ice and topped off with tea. The boba is so soft yet chewy! The calamari and shrimp is also very good! Thank you to Claira and Vi. Clean but very small interior only good to pick up drinks and go. read more

Tastea's boba is hands down the best I've ever had! The perfect balance of texture and flavor. The quality is consistently top-notch and the variety of flavors is impressive. The service is amazing, it's quick and perfect. The boba pearls are soft and chewy unlike others I've tried. Always try the tiger milk tea and matcha strawberry. 10/10 would recommend! read more

The popcorn chicken is delicious and the boba is too. I love this place for a quick snack

Boba was pretty good...it was GREEN too. Which I thought was pretty cool. I tried the 0 cal sweetener for my tea to mango and it tasted just the same as a regular sweetener. BUT the mangos were a little hard and tasted little sour. Which was a little confusing because we are in mango season. HOWEVER Tastea is a nice treat for gym rats as they offer so many 0 cal options. Will be going again:) read more

I'm giving two stars for the cleanliness of the store and the friendliness of the staff. I also enjoyed my Seasalt foam jasmine tea with crystal boba. I didn't ask for less sugar like I normally do but the tea wasn't super sweet, in my opinion. The karate chicken was very disappointing. I got a large size of it and most of it was tiny bits of chicken or breading. The seasoning was too salty for my taste. The sweet chili sauce helped to cut the salty flavor a bit. So, I probably won't be coming here again for popcorn chicken. *** to clarify, I. Thought the place was clean and the staff were nice. No problems there. If that was not the case, i would have gone with 1 star for the food. It was the food that really disappointed me. Everything else was good. I'll add another star for the cleanliness, friendly staff, and decent jasmine tea. read more

I love it here !! My favorite place to get boba especially since they are open late!!

I got matcha thai tea with boba and didnt tell them less sweet but it was not sweet at all. It was first time that I went my friends and they recommend this place but disappointed. read more

I enjoyed the Thai ice tea with the boba, but didn't realize the boba was orange colored until I was almost finished. It doesn't really effect the chewy consistency or flavor. In addition,the creme brulee pudding is good, but I wouldn't recommend adding it in a Thai ice tea because of it's sweetness. The drink filled my craving for something refreshing and deliciously satisfying. The staff were nice and hardworking as they were noticably busy that day. read more

I usually get the Matcha Thai Tea since this is one of those drinks that you can't find at the common boba places. The Thai Tea flavor is strong and it balances well with the Matcha powder. I also like that the drink is not too sweet when I order it with 25% sugar and no toppings. This time around we also tried their Peach Lychee tea with 25% sugar and no toppings. The drink was really sweet so I asked if they could make me another with 0% sugar. They didn't hesitate and made me another one right away. However, it was still very sweet. Although I appreciated the Lychee bits, I did notice an excessive amount which is probably the cause of the sweetness. Their fried chicken and french fries are fantastic. They're always made to order and you can adjust the spice level. read more

Tastea has always had a special place in my heart. In middle school I would get Tastea once a week after going to tutoring class upstairs. Fast forward to now... I've been out of state for school and would always look forward to getting Tastea when I came back during break, but I feel like every time I come back, it's been getting worse and worse. Today definitely solidified it for me. I was craving their fries after not having it for a few years, and it tasted nothing like I remembered. They must have changed the recipe since I've been gone? To top it off, they literally gave me one ketchup packet to go with it... So disappointing. :( read more

I don't know if any one really uses Yelp anymore, but I wanted to post a review on my (almost) weekly boba spot! Tastea for me has always been my tried/true boba spot in OC. I feel like we are spoiled with all the good boba (7Leaves, Sunright, Lollicup, etc.), but Tastea has an extensive menu that hits them all--milk teas, fruit teas, and even coffee too Just wanted to pay it forward to the OG of OG boba spots Thanks Tastea! read more

iykyk this place is the OG boba spot after the one at the block closed down. they have a variety of smoothies, slushies, fruit, and milk teas! i've been going to this place for years as a kid too before i discovered boba. though prices have raised due to inflation, every dollar is worth it! i would skip the karate chicken as it is a bit salty and expensive for the amount they give. read more

After having a rich lunch, consisting of primarily meat, I needed a boba fix. I really wanted to go to Boba Guys, but it was out of the way for my partner in crime. So we arbitrarily decided on Tastea. Oh man, what a mistake! Service: 2 out of 5 it was my first time trying out Tastea, so I wasn't keen on their sweetness level, and what type of drink to order. I tried asking the guy at the counter, but I think he was new; he was unresponsive and wasn't helpful. It seems like he wasn't familiar with their drinks at all either. So, I went with their most popular flavors, Tiger Milk and Peach Me, at a recommended sweetness level which was at 100%. Drinks: 1 out of 5 Value: Average Oh Em Gee!!! It was disgustingly sweet! I couldn't bear to drink it. I took it home for my kids who are sweet lovers, but they too couldn't tolerate the sweetness. So, it ended up in the trash. What a waste! Ambiance: 3 out 5 Small place surrounded with tall clear glass inside enclosing the servers. The glass closure was suffocating to look at, but oh well, it's for safety purposes. Parking wasn't an issue when we came as they were not busy. However, it can be a pain during busy hours. Overall, I wish this place let you sample their different kinds of drinks and sweetness level, to avoid wasting money and bad reviews such as this. read more

Tastea? More like "Taste-Ehh". Once upon a time, in a land not so far away, Tastea was the beacon of culinary delight for my tastebuds. But, oh, how the mighty have fallen. Buttload'a Fries? More like "Salt Mines of The Deep". I swear, the last batch I had was so salty, I'm convinced it was harvested from the Dead Sea. They should include a warning label: "May cause instant hypertension. Keep away from parents and low-sodium diet enthusiasts." And don't even get me started on the Karate Chicken. It's neither fierce nor full-sized. They should rename it "Tai Chi Chicklet" because it's more mellow and tiny. For the price I paid, I half expected the chicken to demonstrate some martial arts. Alas, it was just a disappointing, pocket-emptying morsel. Now, the Avocado Avalanche. Oh, what a misnomer. I'm fairly certain that the avocados they used had been banished to the icy tundras and then begrudgingly resurrected for my drink. Fresh fruit? I think my tongue went on a quest trying to find it, and returned defeated. It was an icy betrayal of what once was a creamy dream. In short, Tastea, you were once my culinary compass, but now, you're just a disoriented map leading me to the land of taste bud disappointment. Farewell, old friend. read more

This is a definite og spot. Brings back memories of when it was one of few places to go to for yummy tea drinks with boba. I love their popcorn chicken too! Staff is always friendly. Never had a bad experience and this goes back 15 years too! read more

I always go to this tastea and I'm never disappointed but I'm very displeased with my visit last night. I ordered online for pickup at 10:33 p.m. I got Thai milk tea and it tasted like water which I didn't even know was possible. I'm guessing they forgot the cane sugar but I realized too late to say anything. read more

Purchased a jug of lychee peachee and received a FRENCH FRY in my lychee toppings cup. I am disgusted and scared of what else ended up in my drink. The entire jug will be going down the drain! Additionally, I purchased a $20 gift card for a friend; however, no money was ever loaded on the card. I contacted tastea corporate, but they told me they couldn't do anything for me. Beware if you ever decide to buy gift cards from them. read more

We use to have to wait in long lines for our orders, now they're so fast and quick! Their online order is so convenient! I love the Strawberry Ecsteasy or Peach me Sweetie for tea. If I'm in the mood for a slushie, I'd get a Amazing Starburst or Peach Me Freezie. For milky teas, I would get their Horchata Milk Tea or Pumpkin Milk Tea! read more

It's been a while since I stopped by Tastea and I usually don't have a go to drink. I decided to try out the strawberry milk tea with Boba add in and I am so happy with how it tasted, I now have a go to drink here! And of course, you can't go to Tastea and leave without their karate chicken and buttload'a fries. The karate chicken has 2 sizes-- S and L, the fries has one size only. We got spicy as our heat level for both and it's a good kick of heat for sure. Got my bf's upper lip sweatin. We got one of each sauce-- chili sauce, ranch, and ketchup and it was enough for both our snacks. Expect a wait when you come here, there's usually a line. I would suggest ordering ahead-- they even have a pickup window outside. read more
