Best WLM Reviews
Definitely Michelin Star worthy boba!
I really wanted to hate this boba shop because I just couldn't justify paying so much for such a small cup of boba -- but I love it. The boba was soft and chewy while the tea itself was nicely brewed. I recommend the Osmanthus Oolong Tea with either Honey or Mango! :)
The workers were really nice, took their time to explain the flavors to us when we ordered, and also had samples ready. Since there's only 1 worker at the cashier taking orders, the line moves fairly slow. Although the interior is pretty small and only has 3 tables, the space itself was fairly nice.
* Osmanthus Oolong w/ Honey: 9/10 - subtle honey flavor
* Osmanthus Oolong w/ Mango: 9/10 - sweet and tart
* Green Tea w/ Mango: 9/10 - refreshing and tasty mango flavor
* Bubbles (Topping): 10/10 - perfectly soft and chewy
Keep in mind that the prices of the drinks are kind of high. Their cups are fairly small and the average price is about $7 without any toppings. They also aren’t able to make adjustments to the drinks like removing passionfruit seeds which I thought was weird.
The plaza itself is pretty small and has little parking in front of the shops, but they have an underground parking lot which makes it a lot more convenient.
Highly recommend giving them a try! :)
Holy moly, ChiCha San Chen is where it’s at! The drinks here are phenomenal and the service is excellent.
I ordered the Osmanthus Oolong with mousse and grass jelly, plus the Pineapple Honey Tea with Konjac from the Pineapple Series. My friend ordered the fresh milk with brown boba. We loved our drinks! I’ll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!!
We happened to stop here at the perfect time where there was not a wait at all. Definitely will be going back. The milk tea was very flavorful and a the boba very soft. Super good. Usually I worry places are overly-hyped but this was good. They have a nice set up inside and announce order numbers to a speaker outside. Very convenient parking.
Amazing consistency + taste :)
If it weren't for the line, I'd come more often. My friends and I got the classic bubble milk tea and it was creamy, dessert-y, and smooth. Truly, it's rare to taste the subtleness of the tea in such a delicate way- I can't describe it! This is super niche but it reminds me of the oat draft from la colombe, but a milk tea version.
The line is super long during the weekends so I recommend coming during the weekday. There is seating inside but minimal. Def worth a try if you're in the area!
Fantastic boba! I wish they would let you do more than one add-on. The oolong tea was delicious. I love how they make the tea fresh for each tea ????
Spent at least 45 mins waiting in line just to order some drinks, but the result wasn’t impressive at all, and the service doesn’t match the price they charge, plus the teas are very pricey. It’s definitely not worth the long wait.
This is hands down one of the best authentic boba tea spots! Worth the wait! The line can get very long very fast! They just recently open one up in the Bay Area 5 hr wait time! But I got lucky today and the wait was only 2 minutes! I order a 1.) Osmanthus Oolong tea with Mango
Rating 9/10- light ice and regular sweetness really good you can taste more of the Oolong tea flavor with a hint of mango. Very refreshing!
2.) Bubba Milk Tea
Rating 10/10!- the OG drink is a great balance of creaminess and tea flavor. Not too sweet! The boba is Fresh and you can taste it! A must get!
Went there due to Michelin star rating. We got three different drinks.
-The best one was Dong Ding Oolong Tea Latter with a hint of smokiness.
-The other signature was orange high mountain and I was not impressed, more like a 3 star drink since I can't really taste the tea. -The other signature we got was osmanthus oolong with honey. Also 3 star, not impressed.
We did like the kojac jelly and the chewy boba.
The downside was we had a 30mins wait and it was already 645pm and they close at 7.
If you are in a rush, would try other boba shops in the area.
