    Strawberry Slush
    Whitney I.

    We came here after dinner with our friends. Since we moved from LA County, I am excited to stop by boba shop in the IE and hopefully find a local spot to support. We came here around 8/9 pm on a Monday night and it was empty. There was no sitting area, so it is a quick stop. A pro is that they had lots of options. Since it was our first time, I had asked for recommendations on the slushies and was recommended the taro slush. When I went to pick it up, it was a standard taro milk tea. I asked about this and they said that's not what I ordered. I felt confused since I asked for the recommendation, so not sure why I did not get the drink they recommended. Overall, I thought the taro milk tea was ok - nothing special. With that and the gaslighting about what drink I was supposed to get, I am not likely to come back. Hoping to find other spots in IE!

    I love this boba place!!! I have tried a lot of their drinks and it all taste great!! But the one i would definitely recommend is the match creme brulee and the hokkaido milk tea. You can really taste the tea flavor and it is not overly sweet. Staff are really nice and never really had an issue. Place is kept clean. Its not really a big place to be able to enjoy my drink but it works because i just have it to go!

    What a pleasant surprise! I was in Moreno Valley visiting a friend and we were craving boba. I immediately searched for nearby boba spots and found Tea Be Honest was about 8 miles from us. So the three of us jumped in the car for some boba. We all went with the dirty milk tea with boba. This was the recommendation of the employee that took my order. I asked him for something that was really sweet and dairy-free, and he suggested the dirty milk tea. We loved the flavor!!! I've never had boba with brown sugar in it, but yum! It almost has a coffee kind of flavor in the tea, but it is not really coffee of course. Super tasty and unique flavor! I've had boba many times but haven't tasted one like that. The employees were nice and friendly. They made our teas pretty quickly. We all left happy campers with our teas. We discussed coming back next time we are nearby. :)

    Entire menu, 5/30/25.

    Service is usually pretty quick. I always get the Earl Gray Milk Tea! Have yet to find another tea place that makes it.

    The matcha milk tea very tasty! The worker are so nice, love this boba shop!

    The matcha milk tea very tasty! The worker are so nice! This is my third time here and my friends and I enjoyed the drinks we ordered earlier. The store is clean, there are some cards and board games can play with friends, the parking lot here is large, there are many parking Spaces. I like here!

    I am revisiting my previous review that I made about a year ago. At first it was pretty decent, but I'm going to need to dock a star for the way this business has been regulating lately. This is the only option to get boba in the Moreno Valley area and it used to be a decent choice to get boba, but over time, this place has gone down hill a lot. Not only has my boba been undercooked a couple times, there has been grounded tea leaves at the bottom of my drink a couple times as well. Their tea has become watered down too unfortunately. Hardly any jasmine tea flavor nowadays! The cashiers and baristas are always so helpful and friendly normally. They work really hard to handle drinks, phone orders, and the daunting line that is always going outside. However, they need a better system or something to reinforce the current one they have. There is a sign that says 6 customers inside at a time, but the store is constantly getting filled! The employees rarely enforce the limited capacity rule and just allow the customers crowd the small shop. Not only that, they have no regard for any of the cutting that occurs in line! I have witnessed this a couple of times now at this location... There will be really rude customers in the store that would skip the line and go straight to the cashier. Not paying any attention to the line at the door! Although other customers in line call them out and tell them they were in line first, the cashier disregards their arguing and still takes that person's order! As someone who worked in customer service, I can understand wanting to avoid any trouble... but allowing customers to cut in line? This is unfair to the customers who are patiently waiting. Overall, I really hope this location will try to have a new system in the future. Possibly having a second line/cash register for phone orders? That way there will be no confusion. Also, I hope they will enforce social distancing and their limited capacity soon. It is becoming ridiculous. It has become really hard to support this business when there are so many issues that have been arising with their ongoing popularity.

    Ask the Community - Tea Be Honest

    Diary free means vegan right?

    Not all dairy-free foods are vegan. Dairy-free diet bans all milk products but not necessarily any other animal products.

    Is there a way to make an online order or call for my order?

    Yes, you can order over the phone. I recommend paying over the phone by telling them your credit card number, so you don't have to wait in the long line! If you order on the phone without paying, you still need to wait in line to pay.

    Do you guys change your pudding recipe sometimes? Sometimes it tastes really good (almost flan like) and other times it taste like a jello like pudding.

    The pudding is homemade here! Whenever I get the pudding, it is more more flan-like... almost like a custard. Perhaps you got it on an off-day and it was made wrong?

    Since I was in the area, I decided to browse Yelp to see if there were any amazing coffee/tea…read moreplaces in the area that I had to try. This one came up on my radar, but I think I overlooked it since I wasn't sure I would be able to make it that day. After catching up with a friend over dinner, she said I HAD to try this amazing tea place that was nearby because it was that good. She's had it multiple times and everything has been pretty amazing. I was sold - we headed over and honestly, it's such an unassuming location that I would not have thought a tea place would be here. Almost in an industrial business plaza with some other drink places in the nearby vicinity (a coffee place that my friend also recommended). Parking is decent. Storefront is pretty small, more for a grab and go although there's some chairs/benches for people to sit and wait. They have a very cute interior atmosphere. And they also have weekly baked goods that they sell in their refrigerator. I was debating between getting 1-2 drinks, but I had already had my quota for the week (!) so I opted for just one. Now I regret not getting two, haha. I ordered the assam salted cream $6.50 for their larger 24 oz with their handmade boba for an additional $0.75. My friend went with the hojicha salted cream. Was able to adjust sugar level but unable to adjust ice - and I did feel like they packed a lot of ice into my drink. But the flavor was on point and I loved the chewiness of their housemade boba. The tea was still slightly sweeter than I would have liked at 50% sweetness - but the cream on top, getting a sip with all the components was pretty amazing. And made my drive home that much more bearable. Saw somebody walk out of the shop after I had ordered with 4 thai tea salted creams ... was sad that I didn't get one for myself. But that gives me a reason to come back! They also have oat milk teas, brewed teas, whisked teas, and limited menu teas. tl;dr - solid tea place in Redlands. Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving something to drink!

The Salted Cream was very good though. I would come back to tey something else. The shop itself is very small with very limited seating. The staff was very friendly. Because of how small the shop is I wouldn't say it's a great place for studying or work.

It could be a bit creamier, but it was still very enjoyable. The jasmine milk tea with regular sugar and light ice was just okay. I would not get it again since it tasted kind of bland. The main attraction here is definitely the popcorn chicken, however the food feels a little overpriced for the portion size. It was flavorful, well seasoned, perfectly salty, and crispy. Even at medium spice, it had a nice kick. There were no weird pieces either. The only downside is some inconsistency in size since a few pieces could be smaller. The mozzarella sticks were also very good. I prefer them with ketchup instead of marinara. They are your typical mozzarella sticks and taste good, but the popcorn chicken is what really stands out.

This limits interaction with baristas. I came with my fiancé and ordered a mango milk tea with boba and she got the classic milk tea with boba. We also got the popcorn chicken with mild flavor. I'm pretty sensitive to spicy flavors and this one I had a hard time with. The popcorn chicken itself was fresh and crispy. I would say their tea and boba has stayed consistent and brings back some nostalgia. This is a great boba shop for students to come hang out and study. Would definitely always stop by when I am in town.

    Lunas Sunday Cafe Moreno Valley…read more Date went 6/19/26 Ordered 3 drinks Ordered at around 3:42pm and got our drinks at around 5:50pm so about an 8 minute wait time for 3 drinks. I think this is really good considering how busy they were Location it's near Cinnabon and Chuze fitness, so it was on the opposite side of the mall from where we entered (Macys). DRINK ORDERED: Banana Pudding Matcha I'm only going to be rating the drink I personally had. RATING: 7/10; I never thought banana pudding and matcha would be a flavor combo I'd drink together, but it was overall decent. I wish they would have put a small layer of banana pudding at the bottom of the cup and then the layer at the top. I was only able to taste the banana pudding until I was almost done with my drink. It's not something I'd drink again personally, but it could be others cup of tea! My other two parties got a Coconut Matcha and Luna Latte and they both gave it a 10/10. So, maybe I just didn't get one of the better drinks on the menu. Overall, my aunt and grandma stated that they would definitely come here again. I personally wasn't the biggest fan of my drink, but that's just me
