    Mango Sticky Rice, Duck Sh*t and Dark Phoenix.
    Jayson A.

    Great atmosphere here at Yun Tea. Came in here not knowing anything about what teas they served, but the cashier was friendly with explaining some of their top selling drinks, along with giving me a sample before buying. I ended up buying 2 of their top sellers that was sampled since i am a simple Milk Tea person. Definitely one of the best milk teas i've tried so far, especially just coming back from Singapore which is competitive with their drinks. Shout out to the barista's; Christina, My, Kurumi, Justin. Will come back for sure as long as i am in the area. P.S- Duck Sh*t is very interesting for a name, but such a banger of a drink lol.

    Friendly wait staff (Christina, Izzie, Kurumi, and Bella) and quick turnaround time for the drinks! Highly recommend their Duck Sh*t tea

    Duck Sh*t Milk Tea with Boba

    This is the only boba store I go to whenever I come to San Diego and the quality is always amazing. They have a wide variety of drinks and they all taste very fresh! You can sample their drinks which is very helpful to narrow down what you want. Their drinks are on the sweeter side so I would recommend 50% sweetness (the same sweetness level they provide their samples in). The store has plenty of seating and is kept pretty clean overall and the workers are all very sweet and helpful. I was helped out by Irene and she explained the menu really well for me. Highly recommend coming here!

    One of my new favorite tea spots in SD! The store is super cute and aesthetic and there's a good amount of tables you can sit and relax. There was a line but it went by quick. I ordered the Frozen summmit which had a good nutty flavor. The Iron goddess had a nice floral hint. I tried the drinks both half sweet and it was the perfect amount of sweetness for me. I got their boba and it was the perfect chewy texture.

    I finally decided to try Yun Tea House after seeing all the hype, but it just wasn't for me. We waited about 30 minutes outside in the heat just to order. They let you sample the drinks first, which was a nice touch because the peachy princess sample tasted really good. Unfortunately, the actual drink I received tasted completely different. It was much less flavorful, and the non-dairy creamer left a weird artificial aftertaste in my mouth that lingered long after I finished drinking it. The rest of my party felt the same way. They ordered the jasmine tea and the duck shit oolong, and none of us were impressed. We all agreed the drinks didn't live up to the hype, especially after such a long wait. The shop is cute and the staff was friendly, but after waiting that long, I expected the drinks to be much better. It just wasn't for me, and I don't see myself coming back.

    The ambiance is wonderful. Plenty of seating indoors to work. The drinks are all great, they offer samples for you to try. The smell of tea greets you when you walk in telling you it's authentic. Tried their dark phoenix at 50% sweetness which was delicious and perfectly balanced. Looking forward to trying more their menu! We were served by Christina, Bella, and Lena. They were so kind and approachable!!

    Yun tea is one of the better boba spots in Convoy. Their service is so fast, so even if you see a long line, they will get their drinks out so fast. There is also an option to order ahead for pick up as well. I ordered: Duck shit milk tea and the Frozen Summit milk tea. The top of the milk tea even has a duck for the duck shit milk tea!! The attention to detail is so good!! Shout out to team Abbie, Irene, Sofia, Julia, Lena, and Bella for getting our drinks out so quickly!!

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon and was able to order pretty quickly. We got the 2 Dark Phoenixs, and 1 Peachy Princess, total came out to be a little under $23 for all 3 drinks. I was impressed because I've been here several times before but this was the first time there were samples! I really enjoyed that we could try before committing to a whole drink because I've tried straying from my regular order before and was unimpressed with the tea. But samples are a game changer!!! The workers today were Kuromi, Philip, Valencia, Alee, and Alice. The drinks came out relatively quickly as well. The boba was fresh, the drinks are good, overall happy with my experience! This is definitely a boba shop that I will frequent! :0)

    If you like strong tea flavors, this place is for you. This is one of my favorite milk tea spots. I love that they offer samples so you can try before you buy. They also have pretty unique teas, such as duck shit tea. I sampled the Dark Phoenix which is their most popular tea and got it in 25% sweetness. I enjoyed it a lot and would get it again. I do want to try their actual boba next time. The interior is also very cute. I liked that there was a river that ran through one of the tables. I can see myself studying here if I was a student or doing work, though outlets seem to be sparse. The bathroom was out of order when I came, which was unfortunate. There's also free 2 hr parking in the lot, but after that it is a fee.

    I got the Hojicha Snow. It was good. Presentation is excellent. Comes in a fabulous designed cup and in a very nice sturdy bag.

    Dan P.

    Duck shit - adjusted to 50% sweet and less ice which was perfect for me! oolong flavor very strong but it's not watered down at all. Free and easy parking. Staff friendly, quick service, there was no line to order and drink came out really quick!

    iron goddess milk tea with boba
    Karen N.

    i always have to end my meals with a sweet treat, and this place is SO good and worth the wait! i came here two days in a row when visiting for comic con, and i had gotten the iron goddess milk tea with boba on my first day and the duck shit milk tea (not pictured) on my second day. both drinks were really yummy and had such a perfectly rich tea flavor! i think i prefer the tea without the boba since the boba flavor can be a bit sweet and take over the pure taste of the tea, but it was still good with a nice chew. if you don't want to wait in line, you can order online too for convenience while eating in the surrounding area! i definitely took advantage of this LOL. there are also a lot of tables to chill at with your friends, and the interior decor is very nicely done with an almost calming effect. very unique tea shop that i would definitely visit again!

    This store has such fresh tea and the staff is always so sweet. They let you sample and tea you'd like as well! Izzie, Wren, Kurumi, and Lilian helped me today.

    Does anyone know what they use for their milk? They said it's non-dairy but does anyone know if they use non-dairy creamer or some non-dairy milk?

    I just asked to see the ingredient list for the nondairy creamer, because I avoid sweeteners and as much as possible artificial ingredients. I noticed it was a bit sweet so I asked. They showed me the label, and It's legit regular non-dairy creamer,… 

    Do they still serve food? It looks like all the recent pics and reviews are only about drinks?

My friends and I were just looking to get a coffee in Little Italy, but when we walked in and saw all the delicious treats we had to try something else as well. I ordered a latte and neglected to tell them it was for here so I was given a paper cup, but they give real cups if you ask. The latte was good, and my friend bought a kitchen sink type cookie with chocolate, coconut, and macadamia nuts. It was warm and gooey good! Another friend tried the gelato and said it was very good. There are a few tables inside and tables out in front outside. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful San Diego weather. The decor and tables definitely gives you an old school Italian neighborhood vibe with Italian markets right next door.

Pizza was good, but soggy in the middle. The pasta was good, no complaints there. The sandwich was very lacking in the meat department... It was basically a bread and arugula sandwich. Had very low expectations for the gelato to begin with seeing as the colors were extremely unnatural and the way it was heaped was a clear indication to me that it is not legitimate gelato and unfortunately, I was proven very right. I got the strawberry so that my toddler could have a few few bites and it was so unnatural and weird tasting that she didn't even want any... And if that doesn't say something! My husband got the coffee flavor and he literally took three bites and threw it away as well. I will say, though, on the food front, the prices are reasonable here all things considered, but maybe stick with pasta... based on everything As a whole though, you can likely get a much more legitimate Italian meal somewhere else in the area, but it will probably cost you more.

The chicken parm was AMAZING. Great portion, great price point, and the whole plate had that homemade comfort-food feel.

The rigatoni with the red sauce alongside it was simple, hearty, and exactly what I wanted. I sat outside on the patio because the weather was beautiful, and it made for a really nice lunch. My server was pleasant, attentive, and welcoming, and overall the restaurant had that casual neighborhood feel that I love nothing overly complicated or pretentious, just really good food at a really reasonable price. My ONLY tiny disappointment and this is probably more about me than them is that I'm a hot-tea-after-my-meal person. I asked about hot tea and they didn't have any hot beverages available. Yes, I realize it was a warm San Diego afternoon and I'm probably the strange one asking for a steaming cup of tea. But give me a little Earl Grey after that chicken parm and I would've been completely set! Otherwise, no complaints at all. Really good food, great value, friendly service, and a perfect casual lunch stop in Little Italy. If I'm back in San Diego and craving chicken Parmesan, I'd absolutely stop in again.

We thought most italian places would provide some sort of complimentary bread, but this place did not. We ended up ordering the Carbonara, Fusilli Alla Vodka, Pappardelle, and Salsiccia pizza. Each were fantastic, but the family really enjoyed the Fusilli and the Pappardelle the most! The short rib meat was extremely tender and flavorful. Portions were a little smaller than expected, but it was enough to feed each of us with a couple slices of pizza to spare. Ambiance was nice and the staff was great.

He encouraged us to sample flavors, asked what kinds of flavors we enjoyed, and made thoughtful recommendations based on our preferences.
