I got the matcha with oat milk and crème brûlée cold foam. It was really good but I paid extra for the foam and felt like I hardly got any. That matcha itself was great but I didn't get any crème brûlée flavor so I feel like it was a waste. My boyfriend got the coconut coffee half sweet. I am a sweet coffee drinker, but I tried it and liked it a lot. I feel like the drinks were a good size for the price.

Instead of making the experience quick and straightforward, the cashier seemed unwilling to help and made me feel like I was inconveniencing them just by placing an order. There was no reason for such a simple purchase to become so frustrating. The drinks may be okay, but customer service matters just as much as the product. I hope management can address this because a difficult attitude at the register can easily make customers choose not to come back.

Sharetea is another boba place in the area that I have never tried before. I decided to order from…read morehere to just try something new, as I was tired of constantly getting a rotation of Ding Tea, Kung Fu Tea, and Teaspoon. Me and my husband actually DoorDashed the first order, my husband got the Taro Ice Blended w/ Pudding and I got this seasonal drink called the Spooky Swirl Ice Blend with mini pearls. Even though it wasn't fresh and it took like 10-15 minutes to deliver after we ordered it, it still came flavorful & icy! It barely melted and still tasted wonderful compared to most boba places we've tried for take-out. We went a second time on the way home from running errands and got different slushees because we really seem to enjoy them here. I got the Strawberry Slushie w/ Lychee Jelly and it came with vanilla ice cream (which I didn't know!), while I got my husband the Matcha Slushie w/ Red Bean and vanilla ice cream. His matcha drink was definitely my favorite, the Strawberry drink just kind of gave me a Summer drink vibe but very light in flavor. I still think this boba is great compared to most places, and I will be back more often to expand my boba drinks to try other ones on the menu.

I got the marble taro drink and my husband got wintermelon boba. They also have rolled ice cream which we haven't tried yet but you can't go wrong with ice cream as a dessert. We'll definitely be coming here more frequently since it's so close to home.

My friend had to put in a new order at the store. We got the three drinks, two slushies (Thai tea, lycee) and one brown sugar milk. One popcorn chicken and one banana Nutella rolled core cream. They gave us milk tea instead of milk and the lychee slush was super sweet and didn't have the tartness that lychee usually has. We expected the mini mochi with the ice cream to be firm because of getting cold, but they were bordering on rock hard. Overall a disappointing experience.

I would sell a kidney for their brown sugar boba…read more Okay I need to talk about Ding Tea because I've officially become "that person" who brings it up in casual conversation unprompted. My husband has started timing how long I can go without mentioning it (current record: 6 hours, and honestly I'm not proud of that). The staff here are so genuinely kind that I've started to suspect they're either extremely well-trained or just secretly the nicest humans alive - I'm leaning toward the latter. Every single time I walk in it's warm greetings and zero judgment when I order something absurdly complicated with three add-ins and "light ice, not too light- 50% sweet." The tea itself tastes like it was brewed with actual love and not, you know, whatever sad tea bags are haunting other boba shops. Fresh, fragrant, the real deal. And the boba?? Cooked to that perfect chewy-not-mushy texture that feels like it should require a culinary degree. I've had boba elsewhere that tasted like sad little erasers. Not here. Here they respect the pearl. Honestly this place has ruined me for other boba shops in Escondido. I walk past competitors now like a woman who's found The One and simply cannot be tempted. 10/10, will be back approximately tomorrow.

The kumquat tea came with jellies which was a fun touch, We love the location of the shop, so close to the freeway and other eateries and will continue to come back.

We walked in and first impression was that it was a clean, black & white decorated store, blasting hip hop / rap. The cashier was really friendly, chatty, and helped us customize our drinks. He was a big part of what made our first time there memorable. We picked this spot because we were looking for honeydew melon slush and they had it (both honeydew melon milk tea and slushie formats). We also got a Passionfruit Green Tea with Boba - 0% sweet. Both were perfect. The sweetness from the boba pearls was more than enough for my passionfruit tea and the honeydew melon slush was on point. The walls are decorated with framed black & white photos of hip hop / rap artists. After making our drinks, the cashier quizzed us on our hip hop artist knowledge :) If you grew up in the 80s-90s, this place will take you back to the golden days of hip hop/rap. What a fun twist for a boba shop. I think we found our fave spot in North County!

Delicious treat! My…read morebro took us to this niche spot and their drinks are great. A nice variety of drinks on their menu and it has a lot of changeable features. I like that the staff offered to edit the drinks after we received them, very cool. Ambiance could be a little better, but they did open recently. I think a few wall pieces (art) would be a nice visual. And more screens to see the menu would be a great upgrade. I think they're going for a Korean simplicity ambiance which is nice but a few additions never hurts. Would return!

I ate one, and it was very rubbery, and you could tell by how hard it was to separate them- that they were prepared earlier which makes a difference in the quality of these rolls.

The veggies were browning. The wrap was super chewy.

Thai Tea with Boba: My absolute favorite. Pad See Ew & Curries: Consistently delicious and my standard order. Tom Yum Soup: Hot, sour, and hits the spot every time. Pad Thai: It's okay, the sauce is a bit too sweet for my personal preference. Popcorn Chicken: Save your money on this one. The pieces are tiny with very little meat, and they lack flavor. For the price, it's definitely not worth the plate. Skip.

The caramel monkey was my favorite because it was super soft, fresh, and the cookie had great flavor. The Dubai cake was good but really rich. I definitely need milk or tea with this one. Service is good. It was pretty empty when we came here. I love this place, but I waste a lot of money here and I'm on a diet. That's the only reason why I haven't been here in a long time. I'm pretty addicted to this place.

The fried chicken itself was good, and the drinks were decent, but the overall experience was overshadowed by the staff's attitude. We asked one girl what she recommend to which she simply replied I don't know and the other one seemed irritated by our questions. This was our first visit, yet they didn't seem interested in helping us! Neither was particularly welcoming or friendly. To make matters worse, we overheard the employees' conversations which included lots of profanity and complaining about work, not a family friendly experience! It's disappointing because the products themselves were enjoyable, but the poor customer service made it difficult to enjoy the overall experience. 2 stars, completely unprofessional.
