    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!

    One of my favorite milk tea spots! Bummed at their recent price hike - one of my favorites the popcorn milk tea is now around $9... I tend to get their fruit teas like the calamansi oolong twist as their milk teas, albeit incredibly fragrant, are not as strong as I'd like after milk is added. The interior is very aesthetic although quite small- I was occasionally able to snag a spot to enjoy the drinks inside with friends. Service is friendly.

    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.

    Cute, small location Night time visit - still busy Drinks are fresh and good Will come back -

    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.

For the pastries, it looked like a lot of the ones I was hoping from browsing online were not available. I ended up getting the biscoff cheesecake. It was on the sweeter side but it was very good. For the drink, I ended up getting the banana latte. Been on a streak of getting that lately so wanted to compare with other stores. I didn't get a lot of banana in the taste. At least it had an espresso shot for the caffeine fix and did not taste like the artificial banana. Nothing special there and stand out. For the interior, they had a few seating they primarily accommodated a few groups of four and two. I was able to grab a bench seat that had an outlet. However, there wasn't enough space for my laptop and the items I ordered. WiFi was available but it had a 90 minute limit. The store had a moderate noise level and stayed busy throughout the time that I was there. The service on the order was quick and they do bring it out to you. The store also has their own house espresso which was a medium dark roast. American Express is accepted as a payment option here. Overall, it was a decent work spot. If I come back, I'd prefer to try another drink and hope other pastries are available. Would recommend the biscoff cheesecake for those that want something sweet and the house coffee beans for those that like medium roasts.

When walking towards the cafe, you will see a sign for a pub. You can walk inside and turn towards the right. The cafe and baristas are located towards the very back! Yet, once you go inside, you notice all the seating that is available. We have asked towards the baristas, and used a little tablet to scan their menu.
