    Lychee Peachee , mango all the way, lychee freeze (left to right)
    Corinna W.

    It's been a long time since I've been here. I ordered the lychee peachee drink and my friends ordered the mango all the way and lychee freeze. They were all very good and refreshing. I'm glad I didn't add any boba to my drink because the lychee bits were more than enough. Glad this place is still consistent with its flavors and taste.

    Yummy Gummy

    I know and Mary said there is a ton of tea places/Boba places, but I think this might be the best one yet! They use the best ingredients, my fruit is always fresh ! Ttheir flavors all sound really good! I'm looking forward to trying more things than the yummy gummy!

    They make the drinks really fast but I do notice that their drinks are not usually consistent. I ordered the matcha thai tea but one day it was more orange and this time it was more green. I also ordered for the 24oz but they gave me a wrong size.

    Stopped by in the evening and was impressed by the large selection of drinks--definitely a lot to choose from. This was my first time at a Sharetea location, and I felt a little overwhelmed by the menu, so I had a few questions. Unfortunately, the staff experience left a lot to be desired. The person at the register was chatting with someone who seemed to be off-shift but still hanging around. They noticed me waiting but didn't acknowledge me and continued their chatting until I finally interrupted to ask for help. It didn't feel welcoming at all. When our drinks were ready, a different staff member called my name, shoved the drinks at us on the counter without a word or a smile, didn't even look up at us, and walked away, and chucked the straw at us too. It came off as cold and unprofessional. Maybe she was having a bad day, but the whole interaction felt like we were an inconvenience. The drinks themselves were okay, but the service really soured the experience. With so many boba spots around and across the street, I don't think I'll be coming back here.

    drinks!

    This spot is consistently solid! There isn't anything crazy special about Tastea, but I am never disappointed here. I've tried the pandan milk tea, peach me sweet tea, and popcorn chicken recently. Pandan Milk Tea: Really yummy! The pandan flavor is really strong, and the jelly it comes with is a good texture and also light enough to go well with it. VERY sweet so make sure to get it a lot less sweet if you normally drink things lighter. Peach Me Sweet Tea: This is the drink I usually get - it is the perfect balance fruity while still having a strong tea flavor. Popcorn Chicken: So crunchy which I like, but the chicken pieces are pretty small. A little steep in price for how much you get also. My spice tolerance is really bad, but I think mild works pretty well with the chicken! Overall a great spot for drinks, but I would usually hold off on their food unless I am really craving it. Their drinks in general also lean sweet, and a 50% sweet here is about an 80% sweet for other boba shops. Service is quick and the workers are so nice. There is also plenty of seating for hanging out/studying!

    Tastea has some of the best boba place meals/appetizers I've had. Their honey boba I argue is better than regular boba, and their appetizers (most specifically the jujutsu box) is amazing. The service however... not great. It took over 20 minutes for me to get my food and drink. Also, the worker ignored me when I asked her a question regarding allergies. (I waited around 10 minutes before saying something... she acknowledged me with eye contact and didn't say anything else) Otherwise, the place is pretty nice. A few tables to sit at and there is a restroom. Although you need to order something if you want access to the restroom. But in general, pretty much a regular boba spot.

    I came here once with my family and try out their boba tea, it's really good for the price! I would recommend back and try out some of their other foods and drinks!

    Brianna L.

    Great Boba Shop! I like that you can change the sweetness level. We will be back. Pros: * Delicious drinks; recommended Thai tea & Boba * Friendly & Quick service * Clean restaurant Cons: * N/A Extra: * I ordered my Thai tea with lite sweetener and it still was a bit sweet for me. Next time, I plan to order no sweetness. * Plenty of parking

    I had been here once a long time ago and saw they had a Thai matcha milk tea I needed to try The space smells sooo good with some tables and chairs available and a clear space to order then pick up drinks I LOVE that they offer stevia as a sweetener option and don't know any other boba place that has that option which is super cool! The matcha milk tea was good but not amazing but the honey boba was so soft and chewy in the best way, regardless will definitely be coming back to try more items

    Strawberry
    Benjamin Z.

    Giving this spot a 3.5 out of 5. We ordered the Strawberry specialtea with boba, 50% sugar, large size. The tea itself was decent, and the sugar level felt just right. The boba was green, which was unexpected, but it actually tasted good and had a nice texture. That said, the menu didn't really impress. It took a while to figure out what to get because nothing really stood out or appealed to my taste. We ended up going with something simple because nothing else looked particularly exciting. Prices also felt a bit high for what you get. The store itself was messy. All the tables were dirty, and there was trash on the floor. It didn't feel like cleanliness was a priority. Service was quick, which was good, but the baristas were extremely loud. Their conversations made it hard to place our order, even though there was only one other group inside. The volume in there made the space feel way more packed than it was. Overall, it's a decent option if you're in the area and want something simple, but I'd probably try other boba spots next time.

    Iced non dairy banana coffee.
    Judy J.

    After fasting for over 16 hours to get my blood drawn, I decided to stop by Tastea, which is not too far from the 15 freeway. May not be the best thing to put in my body as a first meal, but it was already 1:30pm. I was hangry and my state of mind had been altered. The first thing that caught my eye was the banana coffee or matcha poster. So, I went with a small - 20 oz iced banana coffee non dairy creamer. Customizing the sweetness and type of milk (almond, oat, or non dairy) is a plus! For snack, I chose the regular size karate chicken with a spice level of 1 - "mild but wild". It had the right amount of heat without compromising the flavor. It also includes a dipping sauce with the choice of weak sauce (sweet chili), ranch or ketchup. The place is clean and inviting. It was empty when I first arrived and quickly got busy as I left so I cannot comment as to how loud it can get. I didn't have to wait too long for my food and drink. Drink came out fast and waited for chicken which was like less than 5 minutes in all... I think. Price is comparable. Shout out to Charlise for the kind attentive service. There's a variety of drink flavors to choose from and a few yummy snacks to select. I'll definitely come back to try more items. Thank you and stay strong

    Karate Chicken & Calamari -- extra basil (uncooked??)
    Allison L.

    I've always thought that Tastea had one of the best popcorn chicken flavors in town. Today I got the chicken & calamari. Pros: - Great seasoning - Love that they included the crispy little pieces in the chicken - I think the weak sauce is just sweet chili? but it's delicious! Cons: - Ordered extra basil and it's supposed to be fried but they weren't - Spice levels are a bit inconsistent - Usually when we get mild, it has a bit of heat. This time, it had almost none, making me wish I got medium. However, if I order medium next time, it may be tooooooo spicy if it's inconsistent.

    Their fruit teas are where it's at! Got the Unknown drink, which is a mango & passion fruit black tea with pieces of longan in it. Delicious! Light & refreshing.

    Ask the Community - Tastea

    I don't see karate chicken online. Are you no longer selling it?

    Hi Chrissy, we are not offering food with our third party orders anymore due to the high food costs and high DoorDash commission. Please order food directly through our Tastea App or website (https://order.gotastea.com/). Thank you!

    Do artisan fruit teas have hot/warm version? If not, what drink can you do hot/warm? Thank you!

    Hi Xi, yes you are able to order our Specialteas hot if you let your cashier know or make a note when ordering online. Thank you!

    Do they still make french fries? It's no longer on the food ordering apps. Also no matter what spicy level I order, it's never made the same so is the spicy flavor not measured?

    Hi Kira, our hood vent stopped working Friday night and as a result our fryers are generating too much heat. At this time, we only turned on 1 fryer and removed our fries online due to the extended cook time. Customers can order any food item in… 

    How many gallons are your jugs? And are the bobas included in the jug or are they placed in a separate container?

    Hi Roseann, our jugs are 1 gallon each. Boba is ordered on the side. We provide 10 scoops of boba with each jug order of boba ($6). Hope this helps!

    Which specific drinks/smoothies are made with real fruit?

    Hi H, thanks for your inquiry. Our Strawberry Sensation, Strawberry Bananza, Chamango and Avocado Avalanche are all made with real fruit. In addition, our Melon series are all made with real fruit but they are only available during the summer. Hope… 

    What is golden milk tea?

    Hi Mimi, Golden Milk Tea is our assam milk tea with whole milk. We hope this helps!

    Are the smoothies made with real fruit or flavor syrups?

    Hi Tammy, certain smoothies are made with real fruits and we have other smoothies made with fruit juice. Hope this helps!

    Do they only have green boba or can you get regular colored boba instead?

    Hi Claire, both of our boba is typically our signature green color. However, right now we have orange and brown boba in the spirit of fall and Halloween. Hope this helps!

    If i order a thai tea with nondairy milk will it still have dairy (in the thai tea mix/powder)?

    No dairy . Just the powder . You will have to ask for non dairy while ordering to confirm . I'm lactose as well and I always have to ask for non -dairy . I'm glad they have that option available . Sadly lots of boba shops are starting to convert… 

    Do they use real Taro in the taro milk tea or is it powder?

    Hi Audrey, we use taro flavoring powder. Hope this helps!

    So glad to have found a place in San Diego that serves bánh cuốn as it's not an easy-to-find dish…read moreoutside of OC! I grew up going to Bánh Cuốn Tây Hồ in Westminster and crave this dish from time to time ever since I moved to SD, so I was so overjoyed to see that they serve a pretty close version of one of my favorite entrees, the Bánh Cuốn with Ground Pork [$15.08 w/ tax] -- the only difference being that Thien Huong does not pair the dish with the shrimp and sweet potato fritters. Nonetheless, the dish itself is exactly what I was looking for! Freshly steamed rice rolls filled with a savory mix of ground pork, wood ear mushroom, and onions and topped with crispy fried shallots with a refreshing side of shredded cucumber, cilantro, and bean sprouts! The dish also includes several slices of chả lụa as added protein. Everything is not only fresh but is just so well balanced! I am generally a picky eater, but this is one of the dishes that I will wipe clean as it's not only nostalgic but also THAT good! They have other dishes and classic Vietnamese drinks, like Viet coffee, but I have yet to try them. Parking is relatively easy if you're going during the weekday, but it does get crowded during the weekend. This place is frequented by many families and fellow Vietnamese, so you know it's good/authentic! I will say, service is just ok. You order at the counter and take a number with you to your table of choice (when they're not busy), and they'll bring your food out to you. Water is included with your meal! I will definitely be back!

The texture was good and it seemed freshly made, but the overall flavor felt pretty bland and lacked the depth I was hoping for. It wasn't bad by any means, just not particularly memorable. The standout for me was the bo ne. The sizzling beef was much more flavorful and satisfying, and it ended up being the dish I enjoyed most during the meal. It arrived hot, had good seasoning, and felt like the stronger menu item between the two. Service was friendly and the restaurant was clean. I'd consider coming back for the bo ne, but I probably wouldn't order the bun cuon again. Overall, a decent spot if you're in the area, but it didn't quite live up to the hype for me.

Honestly, boba fits the area way better now, especially since more tea spots have been popping up around here. I stopped in for a quick drink and there was a steady flow of people coming in and out, which is always a good sign. Inside is clean and modern, very simple but put together. You can order at a kiosk or go up to the cashier, which makes it easy depending on what you prefer. The menu has a solid variety. All your usual milk teas, fruit teas, slushies, and blended drinks, plus a good amount of toppings. They were also advertising a matcha ice spinner which caught my attention, so I'll probably come back to try that and see how their matcha quality is. I went with a mango fruit tea at 75% sweetness and added boba. I sat outside while waiting, they have limited indoor seating but a couple tables outside which is nice. The drink came out in about five minutes, so pretty quick. First thing I noticed was there were actual mango pieces in the drink, not just syrup. That was a nice surprise and added a good texture. They were soft enough to go through the straw too, so it didn't feel annoying to drink. Flavor wise, I do wish I went lower on the sweetness. Even at 75% it was still a bit too sweet for me, but that's more personal preference. The part that didn't really hit was the boba. It was a little mushy and didn't have that chewy texture I usually look for. It also had this slightly artificial honey taste that kind of overpowered the drink a bit. Not terrible, just not my favorite. It's a solid and convenient spot for the area. Good variety, quick service, and a nice setup. I'd come back, but probably switch up the toppings next time.

    We came here one afternoon because we were craving boba, and we're really glad we did. When we…read morewalked in, we were greeted right away, which made a good first impression. We chose to sit down since we also wanted to try their food along with the drinks. For drinks, my husband ordered the matcha boba and I got the taro with boba. Both were really good--the flavors actually come through, not watered down or too sweet. I also really liked the texture of the ice; it was finely crushed, which made the drinks extra enjoyable. The cups themselves were also really cute and well-designed. For food, I ordered the breaded pork in teriyaki sauce with rice, which also came with three side dishes. It included pickled cucumber (which was really good), a stir-fried cabbage and carrot mix, and another stir-fried vegetable I wasn't familiar with but still enjoyed. My kids especially liked the teriyaki sauce. We also tried the chicken popcorn and my husband ordered the pork chop, which had that authentic Taiwanese bento-style taste we were hoping for. One thing I really appreciated is that they included small bowls for the kids and extra utensils without us even asking--that was a thoughtful touch and definitely a plus for me. Overall, we really enjoyed everything we ordered. The food felt authentic, the drinks were solid, and service was fast. We're definitely planning to come back again with the whole family.

You can customize your drink to how much sweetness and ice you would like it to have. It only comes in my size and it's basically a large. My boba was really good! The service great! The girl who was working was really nice. The inside of the place was big and plenty of seating. They only have indoor seating. They have plenty of parking which is great.

    I was working the strip mall premises for my job. I got a…read morereally yummy lemon Jasmine iced tea, super refreshing and fragrant! I'm not a huge fresh-tea lover, but I needed something light. And it really hit the spot! Also! The young lady working on the day I went opening shift, to mid afternoon-ish. Super sweet!! She saw how hot it was and gave me lemon water! Simple nice gestures like that on a 90° day when I was working outside honestly makes my day! Whenever I'm back in SD, I'll know where to get my tea!

I guess given my age, I might be the Boba Madam lol. Ive had boba long before it became trendy in the US and the only place you could get a boba milk tea was in Taiwan. How I remember those holiday trips and never wanted to come back. Fast forward twenty more years and boba really started taking off once I was a grown adult and seeing them all around NYC. Its of much pride and joy that my ancestry is the place of boba. Ive had DaYungs in Phoenix and do like that they have fresh taro puree there and today when I came in here agter hot yoga, I tried a milk tea with taro puree and added boba, less ice and 30% sugar. I ordered at a contactless machine and before I could even finish checking in on Yelp, my drink was ready. This place is clean and not too much traffic when I came in. Its in a convenient location with a lot of restaurant choices in the area and ample parking. Drink was good, but still too sweet for me. Everything was good consistency and next time I'll just have to dial down the sugar even more. Id definitely return again, solid choice for a boba milk tea break!

I went on the first day of the collab and the employees told me the plushies sold out in the first 10 minutes. The employees were super kind though and I appreciated them a lot. I was still able to get stickers and acrylic keychains during the collab. There's better quality boba out there, but I'm so happy there's a Gong Cha in San Diego for these kind of collab events. And actually, the shoryu cotton candy drink was actually really tasty lol.
