I finally made it to Tastea! With the line outside the door, my expectations were high. I went with my usual Thai iced tea with boba. I mean, it was ok, nothing spectacular, nothing that made me say, “wow, that’s good.”
They do not have any seating available, it's more like an order-and-go situation. Expect to wait outside due to the limited amount of customers allowed at a time.
