Denki’s Boba — Restaurant in Chula Vista

Drink: I have enjoyed the drinks I've gotten from here. The drinks are solid and customizable. Staff is extremely kind. I recommend trying the creme brulee topping. It reminds me of pudding toppings at other stores. On this occasion, I purchased an oreo smoothie (I would usually never!). It was well made, with a good consistency and flavor, even at 50% sweetness. Their Thai tea had a good quality to it, and their basic teas were great for either hot or cold weather. Overall, it's good, maybe not mind-blowing, but it's good. I would love for the menu to be expanded with more fun and unique items in the future!

Atmosphere: I'm not the biggest anime fan, but I think this will be enjoyable if you are one. Luffy stares me down with his fist wound back as I sip my beverage in slight fear. I turn around to see life-sized Naruto crossing his arms at me. I try to look down, only to have Sasuke Uchiha grimacing at me from the floor. It's clean inside and lacks any presence of body odor you may expect. I would bring friends here for the gimmick.

TLDR: Standard Boba shop with a good atmosphere. Hoping for more zany menu items in the future to give it that irreplaceable vibe. This has been a Ruebyn Review and gets the very first Ruebyn stamp of approval. (Add Soul Eater...

The ambiance here is definitely a highlight—the large anime art panels are eye-catching and add a fun, creative vibe to the space.

I ordered the crème brûlée milk tea, and unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to the expectations set by the presentation online. The topping was minimal—just 2 tiny smears that didn’t add much in terms of flavor—and overall, the drink tasted more like a standard milk tea. I’d be open to giving this place another try, especially to explore more of the menu, but since it's a bit of a drive for me, I’d need a little more from the drinks to make the...

We saw a tik tok of this place opening and had to try it out. Was about a 25-30 min drive for us. The theme is super cool. Staff were friendly. I like that friends & family of the owner were helping to get this place going. We know they just opened, and things take extra time. I did give feedback to them that our drinks needed more milk or "tea" flavoring in them. They were appreciative. Gotta love a place that listens to costumers. I think this place really has the potential to really grow. With special events, activities and themed drinks. Looking forward to trying to again soon, it was worth the drive...
