    Matcha Latte with Matcha Cold Foam
    Caes F.

    Torotea has really fragrant drinks. I highly recommend the Double Matcha!! It's like Super Matcha on Steriods! The Jellies are made in house!

    Really enjoying the uva milk tea with black tea tapiochi. I get it less sweet and it's perfect. Hoping they add more black teas to the menu in the future! They mostly have oolongs on the menu currently. Definitely on the pricy side, especially since their toppings are an extra dollar on top of the $6-9+ for your drink. I don't think any drink should be close to $10 so that part is a little off putting. Still don't recommend their matcha, especially since they're $8.55-9.85 and taste pretty bad and chalky to me. Would recommend trying out their other tea drinks instead.

    I've tried toro tea out a few more times and realized their non-viral drinks are so much more my cup of tea (pun intended). I've had the ember milk tea and cassia milk tea my last two visits while sampling the jellies that could come with each drink. I do appreciate Toro tea for unique, low/no caffeine options. That being said, the price is still crazy high and it really sucks if you get a drink you don't want. If you're new to toro tea, I'd go with a group so you can try each others drinks to know what works best for you.

    I used to love coming to torotea from OC, but after today I probably won't visit as often or at all. While the drinks have remained consistent as far as I can tell, there has been a SIGNIFICANT price increase across all drinks on the menu. The lack of a rewards program also makes it less enticing to return, as they used to have one in the very beginning. I am aware that a new location just opened in Santa Ana, but it doesn't have the Yelp waitlist system just fyi, so the line is incredibly long.

    My all-time favorite drink spot! I've been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. My go-to is the Osmanthus Citrus Refresher--it's so refreshing and always hits the spot. I've tried a lot of their other drinks too, and they're all delicious. At this point, I'm honestly just a hardcore Torotea fan. If you're visiting for the first time, I definitely recommend giving the Osmanthus Citrus Refresher a try! The shop is clean and inviting, and there's plenty of parking, making it an easy stop whenever you're craving a drink.

    Torotea is a boba tea shop with multiple locations across the Southern California area. This one is located in a small plaza in Diamond Bar. We went when it wasn't super busy but when it is you can join the virtual waitlist to secure your spot. We got the jasmine oolong milk tea ($6.60) with passionfruit jelly ($1) and the misty oolong milk tea ($6.60) with brown sugar tapiochi ($1). We really tasted the freshness and the tea in both drinks which is always what you want and expect in your milk tea. The jelly had only a mild passionfruit flavor but was still good and unique. The brown sugar tapiochi was interesting. The drinks were on the pricier side especially with the smaller volume. The quality of the tea was good though so if that's what you value, this is a good place to go.

    Toro Tea has so many unique flavors for drinks! There's ample parking whenever I've stopped by. If the store gets busy, the line does go out the door. The shop itself is small with limited seating. it does take some time for drinks to come out as well. Ordering is easily done online via their website! Popcorn Milk Tea with Brown Sugar Tapiochi has a light popcorn taste with a creamy taste. Ember Milk Tea with Barley Jelly had a smokey taste. Jasmine Oolong Milktea with Black Tea Jelly was floral and creamy. All toppings were fresh and had a snappy texture. The lingering aftertaste is a subtle tea taste. Overall a great place for delicious drinks and to catch up with friends. Staff is friendly and informative if you have any questions!

    Okay, I love torotea. I had it before for delivery but fresh was GOOD. we went 2 nights in a row. I will definitely make it out again tonight. Staff service is decent, atmosphere is calm and nice, drinks are the reason to return.

    Torotea might just be my new favorite drink spot! The inside was super unique, felt like you were in a clay house, and the service was great. I told the lady it was my first time and she recommended trying a sample of the Jasmine oolong tea, which tasted amazing so I ordered one with Osmanthus jelly, which she recommended would pair nicely with the Jasmine oolong tea ($7.34). Definitely have to come back to try more drinks and some of the other toppings

    Had to make my 1000th review count, so naturally I chose Torotea, the place that keeps my tea addiction thriving. I usually hit their San Marino spot, but this location still delivered the goods. The shop's a bit small inside, but service was nice. Grabbed my ride-or-die Koan-Im Oolong Latte and paired it with a donut from my favorite donut shop like I was assembling the perfect duo for a late night snack. The tea was lightly sweetened perfectly to my liking, smooth, and clearly crafted by someone who respects tea leaves more than I respect my sleep schedule. The cloud top was basically dalgona candy foam and felt like a bonus dessert after finishing the drink. Even with a lot of people waiing, service moved fast, in & out in about 7 mins. Quality tea, speedy service, and enough creamy foam happiness to make a milestone review feel deserved!! Highly recommend!!!

    I enjoy their tapiochi a lot, it's a mix between boba and mochi as the name implies, so it's a softer texture than boba. This is what makes Torotea unique, along with their high quality tea. I'm personally not a huge fan of their popcorn milk tea, but I think that's because I don't like popcorn or "buttery" notes. I'm a huge fan of their misty oolong milk tea, which they say is malty, roasty, and creamy. It's the ideal nutty milk tea that I envision. Their jasmine oolong milk tea is more floral so sometimes I go for that instead. I'll happily go to Torotea every time I'm in Diamond Bar, but I hope they open in OC soon! I'll be at Torotea more often if they come down.

    Although my previous 3 star review of this place, i still think its a decent place to come so from time to time I would still come but it is just not a 5 star boba shop overall including services. And trust me, i have been to hundreds if not thousands of boba shop including international. This time around, I went there to order a popcorn milk tea as usual without ice. First they came out having ice in there...fine little mistakes , no biggie. I told them about it and the server apologized and took it in for people inside to change it. Good service right there. Now when it came back out, the cup is wet and i saw a chuck of ice was gone...AND milk tea ( not sure if the wetness if the cup is water or milk tea ) but regardless #1 they didnt even give an effort to clean or wipe down the cup for me after taking out the ice #2 they obviously didnt refill any milk tea back #3 the main reason for me not having ice was i dont want my milk tea to be water down by ice overtime and it was there with ice for a few minutes, im sure it watered down some so they didnt even bother to fill back the missing tea. Come on torotea, your shop is already overhype in the beginning but you cannot even do some common sense basic service now?

    I came to charge my car and decided to give this tea spot a try because it looked incredibly busy…read more My thought was, it must be good, right? Luckily, I was right. I ordered the half sweet matcha with oat milk, and it was delicious. The portion size was generous, and despite how busy they were, my drink came out surprisingly fast. I loved that you can order from a touchscreen kiosk and easily customize your drink with all the available add ins. The menu is huge, but the digital ordering system makes it easy to browse and see all your options. The location itself is small with minimal seating, but it has a cute atmosphere and a great vibe. Overall, a solid spot for tea and matcha lovers, and I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu.

    Convenient and Customizable -- A Solid Go-To My all-time…read morefavorite boba spot was Sunright Tea Studio, but unfortunately it's closed down, so I've been on the lookout for a replacement -- and this place has become my current go-to. What I love most here is the ordering experience. There are multiple large touchscreens where you can fully customize your drink -- sugar level, ice level, add-ons, substitutions, you name it. I almost always go for zero sugar, and the fact that I can do that easily is a huge plus for me. It's the kind of flexibility that modern boba shops should all offer. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable, which is refreshing compared to some other spots in the area. Is it the most amazing boba I've ever had? Honestly, no -- but the ability to build your drink exactly the way you want it more than makes up for it. There's also a large display screen showing order status, so you always know when your drink is ready. It's a small touch, but it makes the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. I'll be real though -- I probably drink more coffee from the Starbucks across the street than boba from here. At the end of the day, coffee feels like the healthier daily habit. But when I'm in the mood for something different, this place is where I'll be.

    Needed a place to get some work day and Outpost Coffee really came in clutch…read more There were plenty of parking available in a plaza which is shared with other businesses. I went on a weekday before noon and had no issues with finding a spot. For ordering, they had a kiosk inside with pictures for reference as well. It does accept American Express. After ordering, it only took a few minutes before it was ready. As for the atmosphere, there were a few other people, but they were mindful of noise. The music was also moderate, so I was able to focus without any earphones. There was plenty of seating from the center table to seating at the wall and even window seats. There were outlets available near seatings at the wall. There was also free WiFi as well. At first it indicated you would only have WiFi access for 1 hour. However, after the hour, I reconnected and it refreshed the timer. For my coffee, I decided to get an iced Dalgona latte. They provided many pieces of Dalgona. I did ask to get this at regular sweetness and ice. Overall, after the Dalgona dissolved with the ice, it felt like a good amount of sweetness. It was decent, but I've come back to try other drinks!

    Apparently all locations of the Mugs have been bought out and rebranded. The location in DB is now…read morerebranded as Outpost Coffee. It appears that they are still in their transition phase as there are still signs of "the Mugs" throughout, including the same menu and company info poster. I got the Banana Caramel latte and it is so good! Slight sweet banana flavor but doesn't overpower the espresso so it still tastes like a coffee drink. Plenty of seating for working and just hanging out. Parking is plentiful, staff is nice, just wish the noise of the refrigerator case wasn't so loud so I could enjoy the background music.
