Customer service here is sucks ! The girl with night shift for today 08/31/23 was rude to customer . It might be because we came 20 mins before closing. At first , We don't know what size to buy , so I hold the display cup . The cashier said" can u put the cup down , we don't want people touch it" Okay , if you write the word "don't touch " I WOULD NOT TOUCHING IT. But it doesn't say anything. Okay? And when the cashier gave the straws she shows her attitude towards me . read more

My BF and I have been to this location a couple of times and totally love it. The flavors of tea are super yummy and the service is great and staff are always so friendly, and orders are made quickly. This place is amazing and I highly recommend this place for tea or a yummy treat. read more

I'm not sure what happened with my order tonight, but was surprised to see how my Karate chicken was packed, or should I say sparsely packed. $7 for this? And they didn't pack straws? How am I supposed to drink the boba? I would probably pass on ordering here at night. Looks like they rushed this order and this is what was "left over" Update: 7/13/21 The store owner contacted me the next day regarding my review and was very apologetic of what happened to me the night before. I thought this was excellent customer service on their part. She even went above and beyond & sent me an "oopsie" gift card to make up for this order. Thank you Tastea! read more

Tastea - $7 for this? I took this straight out of the delivery bag. How disappointing. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Garden Grove, California

!! READ !! Be Aware, False Advertisement! When you purchase a 32oz drink WITHOUT ICE, this drink will no longer be 32oz! It becomes a 16oz drink leaving the remaining of the cup empty, meaning they're selling you the other half (16oz) of JUST ICE. If you advertise a 32oz beverage, you should expect 32oz of the beverage, not 16oz in a 32oz Cup. read more

Relatively new location. I think I first came during their soft opening. Service was slow but I'm glad they learned something from the soft opening because since then service and boba have been top notch! I highly recommend this location. Today I had the Golden Milk Tea with honey boba. My other go to is Honeydew Milk Tea with boba and sometimes coconut lychee jelly. Years back in the early days of boba shops, my go to was their Thai Tea with boba. It used to have that strong distinct tea flavor, but over the years they changed their recipe. After a few years I tried to see if it changed again for the better, alas, it had not. Very sugary and no strong flavor characteristic of Thai tea. I really want to try again but don't want to be disappointed. If there are fans of Tastea's current Thai tea, you have no idea what you missed out on back then. Or I could be wrong, convince me to try again ;) read more

Came out today for a drink and it's as good as it usually is so nothing much to point out there. I will say, the service and hospitality I got from Kelvin was great. Please give him some acknowledgement for being a chill guy (: read more

Don't take too much time reading my review, cause by the time you finish I've already finished my drink I ordered at this amazing spot. Not all the Tastea's are the same so this is my take on this Harbor location. Great parking, good atmosphere, friendly smiles as you walk in. What more can you ask for. Oh they are Covid ready, so don't forget your mask and if you can smell the persons scent you are way too close. Look down and you will see where you should be standing. This location is new, so bare with them. They are staffing it up all to serve you the best. I got my large Chamango, lite sweet and I can say it hit the spot. Who doesn't love Chamoy. They got my vote on this drink. Been back a few times already and yes they just opened! Don't forget, what you see isn't always what you have to get. Got yourself on that special diet or dairy restrictions, change it up and add substitutes they gotchu. So what are you waiting for. Stop reading and start ordering. Don't be the only one who hasn't tried it out. Don't worry you can thank me later. read more

Used to work here back in my TEEN days. Green boba is where it's at and what they are KNOWN FOR. On top of that? Customer service is off the roof. Don't like your drink? Make another one without completing your already bought drank. Be sure to tell the difference between a smoothie and a slushie isss ICE CREAM YOGURT ORRR... ICEEE ICE CUBES. That's it. Teas? With milk or without? I like mine wittthhh. Half of this. Half of that. I make my own back in the day and you can too! Limit yourself to 3 including add one. Get the biggest size cause MIGHT AS WELL read more

I love the jujutsu rice bowl. It's perfect, especially the spicy chicken. I feel like I can eat it every day. Thank you, taste, for always serving a good food read more

Wow their chicken and fries were super delicious today! Super hot and crispy fries with the right amount of seasoning. Some Tastea locations are hit and miss. This place is great! read more

Thank you, Amy for upholding the customer service for Tastea and reaching out to rectify what happened on our last visit. Husband and I will give the Harbor location another try as mistakes do happen. We appreciate you caring enough to reach out and would like to continue our support for one of our favorite boba franchises. Updating my review solely based on Tastea management team caring enough to reach out and asking for another chance. Husband and I have been supportive loyal customers to Tastea, so I'm really glad this new franchise is upholding the customer service and valuing our feedback. We will see how our next visit goes at the Harbor location. read more

This is currently my favorite boba spot. Milk tea with almond milk alternative is my go-to order! The boba is perfection! My partner loves their Ooh La La smoothie drink and always wants the larger side. Staff are young and don't really understand the importance of customer service yet, but the drinks are so good that I'll overlook the service when eating this place. The only other reason i don't give 5 stars is the location. Located behind Lazy Dog in a small shopping center... it is a bit scary at night. I'm afraid my car is going to get broken into or get my tires messed up because of the many potholes. I'll definitely only go during the day. read more

hands down this is the best place for popcorn. this ain't a race, but Tastea takes first place. the spices are very inconsistent tho

When I heard about Tastea opening on Garden Grove and Harbor I was so ecstatic! It's across the street from the Credit Union I work for which makes it so convenient when I stop by for a branch visit. I'm able to get my boba and popcorn chicken fix! They have such a friendly staff and I was greeted when I arrived and thanked when I left. I value this kind of service as I too coach team members on service. The popcorn chicken was delicious- I got a large and they were so generous compared to most boba places. I love their Jasmine Milk Tea and when I'm feeling fruity I love the Unknown and Bootea Shaker. I get 3/4 sweet on the fruit teas and it's perfect and full sweet on the milk tea. I love this location because I've been here like 10+ times since they opened and everything has been consistent on taste and quality. read more

Terrible Service. I usually have a 5 star experience at this location but the employee Kevin was absolutely rude. We asked nicely if our third drink was being made (it wasn't) only because three orders ahead of us had already been given out, so he went to make it and then when handing us our drinks we said we didn't need a bag or cup holder, however he didn't seem to hear us so we repeated one more time and he rudely responded "i hear you.". He then proceeded to very mockingly and fakely say "have a good night thank you for your patience" all because we asked about our third drink. This employee needs to go as i've never once had a bad experience here until today. One of our drinks was also incorrect but we hesitated to go back as he was already worked up over a question. On the other hand, the new trainee clarissa was so sweet! Management please hire more people who have customer service skills, Kevin lacks it a lot. read more

1/27/2023 I've been coming to this location for years and their fries & chicken WERE always tasty. Today they were bad. 1st the fries: good thing I checked my bag for that extra sauce I paid for, which at .15 is ok. I tried some fries and they were almost tasteless! Hardly any seasonings! I was told "they changed the recipe and now only put 1 shake of Tasty Spice." A ton of fries & ONE shake of spice?? That's their signature! The only reason I ordered them & paid $5.50 for fries!! She was nice enough to bring me a very small amt of the seasonings in a cup. Is this going to be extra $$?? 2nd the Chicken. Mild was NOT wild!! Chicken almost tasteless, no seasonings. And there are tiny bits & pieces that look & taste like FRIED SKIN!! Were these added to increase the weight? WILL NOT BE BUYING THE CHICKEN OR FRIES ANYMORE. read more

I was in the area and was craving some tasty popcorn chicken, when I remembered that Tastea serves very delicious and tastea karate chicken. I've never been to this location before, and figured that I've had very good experiences with the other locations, so when I opened the bag to receive my large order of karate chicken, I was not expecting to be heavily disappointed. Pictured below is my order of a large karate chicken at a price of $10.25, and a snippet of what the regular and large size karate chicken orders are supposed to look like (per photo via online ordering system). You can see the size of the tray, and how empty it looks. This looks like a portion for a regular size at $7.50 that I usually get at the other Tastea locations. I've been reading reviews from this particular location, and it seems like other fellow Yelpers have had similar complaints. The only thing that is saving them from a 1 star review is that the chicken actually tasted good. I know it's very difficult to maintain a business with the increased prices, but this was just a pure rip off. I'm very disappointed at this Tastea location. read more

This is a solid tastea. All my drinks have come out great. Customer service is good. It's always clean. The con I guess is no public restroom read more

This place is very good. I had the Horchata Milktea and the Tiger. Both very delicious. Of course I added boba to them. They really know how to make good drinks here. I already came here 3 times and will continue to come to this TasteTea. Can't wait to Taste more drinks from this place. read more

Need party jugs of tea or milk tea for functions or events? Tastea got you covered! Easy order through their app, questions were answered by staff in a friendly manner and great customer service! read more

By far the worst Tastea I've ever been to. Stood at the register for 10 minutes with no one greeting us or telling us they'll be with us shortly. Mind you we came at 8:30PM. There was an Asian guy with shoulder length hair and a black bucket hat who made eye contact... and still walked right by us. There was a girl who was blonde and had her hair in pigtails.. she straight ignored us and didn't bother even looking at us. And then the last girl who was Asian was running around like a chicken with its head cut off who kept looking but never said anything either. (I wasn't able to see any of their names so this is the best description I can give lol) We ended up walking right out. Worst location ever, don't come here if you're looking for service bc there is none LOL read more

We ordered tastea online before coming in person and was ready right when we got there! Definitely recommend ordering ahead of time so you can skip the line. The store front is kind of small, and there is a couple of tables and chairs outside to sit on. The drinks were so good and we all loved the fries and popcorn chicken. Definitely recommend! read more

update: Great customer service! Emily reach and came up with the perfect solution. Thank you very much for responding and we will be back to try it again! Is tonight not a good night for them? I ordered drinks here before and it was always delicious but tonight was horrible. Drinks: 1. Avocado smoothie with boba, why so bland? Literally, too much ice and it had no flavor. 2. Taro smoothie with jelly, seriously how can taro get messed up. It is just powder, ice, sugar, and water. Just follow the measuring cup. So disappointed with this one. 3. Strawberry-banana with boba, okay this is by far the best of the 2 drinks I ordered. I want to say I might come back but after these drinks, I am not sure. This place was always my to go but I don't even know what happened tonight. read more

This is my favorite Tastea in Orange County. They ALWAYS get my orders right. They are also very generous with their portion. I get the karate chicken every week and always ask for extra basil leaves, while other Tastea locations are stingy with the basil, this place always gives me a good amount. They also allow up to three sauce (on their app) for a regular size of karate chicken while other place only allows 1 sauce for a regular size. Service is always quick and on point. They topped off my Great White Peach tea for free when I opted for no ice. Their parking lot has plenty of space compared to their neighbor Tasteas. Overall, always a pleasant coming here read more

My go to quick fix boba spot. Have it any way you like. Order ahead or wait in line. This place is poppin.

Expect to wait around 22 minutes for your order to be ready. The avocado smoothies doesn't taste good. Alot of milk in there , can't taste avocado at all. They probably only put 1 small spoon of avocado, most are just ice and milk read more

I rather drive a little farther to a different location. They made my drinks but forgot to make my popcorn chicken and then the drinks were really bad and it's disappointing as I know tasty holds their drinks to the highest standards. They source out great ingredients from reputable places however this time the Bubba was over boot and really soggy and the milk tea was thick which is strange. The popcorn chicken was also under cooked. I am surprised. read more

I've tried their horchata tea and slush and as a Mexican who's grown up drinking authentic horchata this ones pretty good! Doesn't taste authentic but it's dam good! My sister tried their Vietnamese coffee.. DAMMM it's freakin S T R O N G !!!!! I'm not a fan but she really liked it Their boba with honey is worth trying too read more

This is my hidden gem. It's kind of hidden but once you know where it's at. It's a great place to stop by to get your boba fix. Mine is peach me sweetie with lychee bits and grass jelly. I go here to avoid the Bolsa traffic and is as good as the original. Great people working here too.It's one of the newest so the setup is clean and tidy. I like the double doors to go in and out and people don't bump into each other standing in line and exiting. Simplifies my life. Thank you. read more

I'm honestly just confused... This is all you get for a regular size order of the karate chicken? AND I paid almost $8 for this....? I don't remember the portions being this small so cant tell if its just this location or what... but I feel like I got gypped. read more

Tastea - Maybe 8-10 pieces at most - Bubble Tea Near Me - Garden Grove, California

You can't go wrong with Tastea! They're the "OG" boba tea house and this location doesn't disappoint! Great and friendly staff, they went out of their way to make sure I was happy with my drink. My go to drink is the Lychee Peachee which of course was made to perfection because you can request some customizations to suit your tastes - I don't prefer my boba drinks too sweet so they were able to tone down the sweetness. The store being clean and well kept and along with the good vibes from the staff shows that management cares and knows what they're doing. In the food and beverage industry it is very important to deliver a consistent experience to your customers and this location hit the mark, they reminded me of why I like going to Tastea and how it became a household name in boba tea. I'll be coming back here for sure whenever my boba creeps in! read more

My little brother ordered from the tastea app a large popcorn chicken medium spicy for me to pick up for him , when I get home this is what I get ... it's not medium spicy and it's definitely not a large, definitely not worth it, I usually order at the Westminster location and is NEVER like this. read more

Today is their soft opening so my wife and I decided to give this new location a try. Drinks and food came out in a timely manner, we were greeted by the baristas upon entering, social distancing was enforced, etc. Only one issue was that we ordered 2 popcorn chickens (both mild), and 2 buttloada fries (1 mild, 1 medium). Everything came mild (we saw no signs of the chili powder that we usually see from the food at their OG location). Not enough to ruin the whole meal, just kinda bummed that we paid a lot of money (~$43) at a boba shop and they made an error like that. Understandably, it is their soft-opening so I will patient with them and try ordering again in the near future. read more

Been going here for nearly a year after discovering their app for ordering ahead and quick pick up. It has been great until the last month. Typically order ahead and ready within 10 minutes or so after. Not sure what's been going on, but every time I go for pick up, there is a group of customers waiting for orders either from app or in-person orders. Last two times specifically, my drink as well as a few others were complete but the employee did not greet or notify the customers. All they had to do was read the names on the drinks and hand them out. Ended up waiting 15 minutes for a completed drink. Understandably it can get busy but please find a way to pass out completed drinks if possible. Same is happening right now as I type this. read more

i've loved tastea for years and have been ordering from this location pretty regularly and have never had a problem with this location before. the staff today was not friendly. when i approached the pickup window the first girl just stared at me without saying anything a "hi" or a "welcome" would've made a huge difference. when i told the other girl who did greet me my name she told me they gave my order to someone else and would go fix it. her name was tran and she was the only one working who was friendly and had good customer service. it appears that it was the first or third girl i interacted with who carelessly gave my order to someone else while i was waiting for my order by the pick up window a third girl rudely told me to have a seat while i wait. i noticed that they had signs about being understaffed but the store wasn't busy and there was no reason to be rude read more
