Chakaa — Restaurant in Oxnard

I am new to a Oxnard area and trying to find my Thai tea and Boba go-to. This is not the place. First, I paid $7.59 and that’s outrageous! Second, whatever cream or milk product they add in, it left a film on my tongue, and it made me think that I was drinking butter or pure whipping cream. Also, I could barely taste the Thai tea. It was overly creamy and super bland. There is nothing special about this place except the cute, but definitely unnecessary, expensive cups they put their teas in. Also, I do not feel the Boba was cooked or done very well because I could not suck most of it up through the straw so I paid for something I wasn’t able to even have. It’s very confusing when you walk in because there are chairs directly across from the cash register, which made me think that everyone sitting in them was waiting to be in line because there’s no semblance to what those random chairs are for and where the cash register line starts. That’s definitely something they could work on. Very clean place, very nice person at the cash register and seems Lively. Just really missed the mark on a good...

Such a let down, I had heard a tea place was now in the place of the Starbucks and the way others talked about it made me want to try it, but upon reviewing the menu it just looked so basic or over the top. So when you would try to ask the staff (Kaitlin) about the drink they just did not have the time for you and wont help. Just real dismissive and inattentive. This was our first time here and tried to ask about some drinks and her response was "which ever ones say Boba next to them". The drinks are overpriced and tip of course (not sure for what because she did not help, offer suggestions, just kept looking down at the screen just to hurry and get our order and brush us aside) so she left before you even got a chance to ask or change anything but push the gratuity real quick. The drinks leave you feeling what did I waste my money on the oreo Swiss coco just tastes like a watered down powder nestle chocolate drink with a hint of oreo and milk....good luck getting help with questions as you are expected to be a pro with these drinks as they do not have the patience...

I'd have to agree with the other review by Alex that this place is close as it will get to L.A. and S.D. I'm not sure where other reviewers are getting the $10 per drink cost from. Ours were comparable to any other boba shops at $6-$7.25 each. This is probably the best boba place in the Ventura area. We get our usuals that we get when in L.A. Uji matcha without the cheezo, mango pamelo, brown sugar milk, and taro milk with real fresh taro. All the boba teas tasted fresh with real ingredients. I don't like the artificial powder and syrup that most boba shops around here make. The boba were also perfectly chewy and caramelized, which is impossible to find at other boba shops in Ventura. I'm just so happy that...
