Finally got to try their Boba tea drinks. A small storefront inside my favorite Asian Supermarket in Convoy St., San Diego, CA. There was a short line of customers which is ok as I needed to understand their menu. I had a taste for Matcha Green Tea with Boba...they only had green tea bags that they brew. I also asked for non-dairy milk option - coconut milk maybe, they didn't have it!. I ended up with a Green Tea Machiatto- which is brewed green tea topped w sweetened heavy creme - very good & rich, and with good Boba pearls at the bottom. I'm just going to give it away as I really cannot drink it but I wanted to taste it. The Green Tea flavor was very weak & watered down, hardly taste it, and the heavy cream took over the whole beverage. The staff was not very engaging, I asked what they could suggest as non-dairy option, and response I received was just a plain "no". It would help to train the staff to be more open to interact with their customers, also...have some non-dairy options. I shall try them again & hopefully, they would have improved...
Read moreThis is my FAVORITE boba place in San Diego, no question about it. It's important to note that this is located in Ranch 99 and it isn't a stand-alone boba shop with seating.
When they first opened, my friends took me to try it, wanting to see if this store lived up to its counterpart in Taiwan (50Lan or Wushiland as I was told). Spoiler Alert: it absolutely did.
My go-to drink here is their orange green tea, but I've also tried (and loved) their yogurt green tea as well. Their tea is always freshly made and you can really taste the difference compared to other boba shops I've tried in the SD area.
If you're looking for a great cup of boba (and happen to be doing some shopping in Ranch 99), then I highly highly recommend giving OOTea /...
Read moreOur favorite tea place in the whole city!! This OO tea uses real ingredients and its teas has rich tea flavors especially the latte versions.
My rating for this place in 02/05/2020 is a 3.5 stars so far, several occasions my drinks' sugar were forgotten to add (even it is printed on the cup sticker). Most barista are friendly and welcoming but the rest needs additional training on customer service and productivity.
Today's visit (02/05), it seems they were short staffed. The barista on the 5:34pm shift needs to concentrate on customer service! The drink was made quick but she seems irritated by the few of us (4-5 customers) waiting in line to get the orders made. Rushing and showing a weary attitude.
Drinks also got more pricier...
