Let me tell you... she did NOT lie. I was instantly impressed by how many different options they had. The menu is stacked with creative flavors, mix-ins, and combinations. It honestly took me a minute to decide because everything sounded so good. I went with the taro tea with classic boba smooth, creamy, perfectly balanced, and not overly sweet. My niece ordered the Fresh Citrus Blossom Tea with kiwi pop boba, which was bright, refreshing, and fun with that juicy kiwi burst. My sister created her own custom mix: green apple lemon with kiwi pop and crystal boba. It sounds extra and it was but in the best way. Everything we tried was divine. On top of the drinks being amazing, they have a point system for giveaways and specials, which I love because who doesn't appreciate rewards? The customer service was awesome friendly, patient, and genuinely welcoming. If you're in the Cathedral City area, definitely stop by. Whether you're a boba regular or just getting into it, this place will have you saying "prepare to be amazed" too.

Wanted to like this place because the service was friendly and the food came out quickly, but…read moreunfortunately the sushi quality was extremely disappointing. The tuna nigiri had visible browning/discoloration on the ends and, more concerning, had a very foul odor that immediately indicated it was not fresh. As someone who eats sushi regularly, this was not normal tuna by any standard. I brought the issue to the staff's attention and chose not to eat any of the meal. While the employees were polite, the quality of the food itself was unacceptable, especially when serving raw fish. Freshness is the bare minimum with sushi, and this experience completely missed that mark. Quick service and kind staff can only go so far when the food is this poor. Sadly, I will not be returning.

It's a tight space inside, with two waiting chairs and actual tables are all outside. Why the 3 stars? The service was painfully slow. Understaffed for a busy Valentine's Day evening. Both workers were very kind and nice, but the one taking the order was exceptionally chatty to each customer despite a long line. The one manning the actual assembly station also had to make the taiyakis and didn't seem to know how to read the orders. He actually made our order wrong and took extra time to redo it. Menu and food are great, but staff need to be better trained.

Thankfully tea shops have become more regular here in the otherwise asian treat deprived desert. Chakaa Tea Shoppe is located at "The River" which is a small outdoor shopping spot situated around a manmade 'river'. The location used to be a starbucks and is perfectly set up for a tea shop to take up residence. Now for the honest, the tea is about average, I do appreciate the ample ordering options of non dairy milks. This time I ended up getting a coffee with boba as my treat vs my normal tea order. The staff is always super friendly and helpful if you have any questions. The boba was also VERY good and well made vs some places that provided under cooked or over cooked boba. A coffee with boba and a small tip ran me up almost $10 which is a little expensive for my taste but it IS a treat after all and not an every day buy. Of all the times I've come into this location they always seem to be warm inside and prefer to not run the AC. I tend to sweat a little bit which is a bit of a drag considering that they have tons of seating. I probably wouldn't drive to the river JUST for boba but if I'm in the area shopping in need of a pick me up to go this would be a good stop.
