Tea Juice — Restaurant in San Carlos

Kudos to any small business that is bold enough to open their doors during trying times...

Wishing you all the best!

I believe Tea Juice has some sort of partnership with the next door Chinese restaurant: New Canton Restaurant. My receipt confirmed my suspicions... Perhaps it's the same owners? Not that it matters...

I decided to stop by based Tea Juice based on the handful glowing reviews. I also love to support little local mom and pop spots and try new places as well. I'm glad to report the reviews weren't misleading! The inside was closed...adhering to SIP protocol; there was no indoor dining. There is an open window facing the sidewalk where one can order and pick up items. A friendly lady running the show told me my drink would be ready in two minutes...wallah!! She wasn't kidding!!! My drink was ready in two minutes!!!

~ C5 - Rose Oolong Tea Salted Cream [SEA SALT CREAM] OH...so very well balanced! Not too sweet, like some other places. It didn't need any adjusting...like when some other places ask you for 50% sugar or 50% ice etc. Really good flavor; a balanced combination of Rose and Oolong Tea. The Boba was not hard or too chewy, soft and supple. Finally the Sea Salt Cream was also perfect!! Not too cheesy or creamy...just brilliant!!

Can't wait to try other things on the menu...especially...

I think the reviews need a bit of balancing in the area. I wanted a less sweet and more milky tea but first my no ice comment was missed and then the tea was too strong for my taste. It was then replaced with more water and sweetness which tasted like a sweet watery black tea. I said more milk could be added and was pointed out they only make their style and don’t customize. Less ice makes it too strong. And then my money was returned! There was no one in the queue and just 1 customer inside. A little more politeness would’ve helped. But yes, customizations are not welcome here. Seemed like a good local shop that I wanted to support. I ended up having an amazing boba tea at Boba...

Amazing tea with great variety! Accidentally stumbled across this place, have returned since, and am never disappointed! The milk tea boba is great, but the Super Fruit green tea with passion fruit popping boba is next level. The fresh fruit slices mixed in with the tea are a refreshing surprise and the fruit is always ripe and delicious. I tried the grapefruit fruit tea today as well which hit the spot! Would definitely recommend checking...
