Reviews
Perfect amount of sweetness, nice velvety, texture, and really full of flavor. Very much recommend the Ube. We had takeout so we didn't get to experience much of the service or ambience. But I would say that the ordering experience was seamless.
Tip: The Mega size comes with a handle, but make sure it can fit in the cup holder (if driving out) before committing! Otherwise, you'll need to have a friend / carrier hold it if you want to enjoy it to avoid risking any spills on the drive home. - - - - - - Noble Tea's been on my sights for a while, but there wasn't an opportunity to try it until recently! I had their Thai Tea (25% sweet) with crystal boba, aloe vera, and egg pudding - why? I have no idea; the temptations of foregone free toppings and the avoidance of more calorie heavy options were difficult. I enjoyed ordering the mega because it also means that I have a drink for the next day. Since I didn't get boba, I didn't have to risk it getting hard in the fridge. The 25% sweet option was good, but still a tad too sweet or me. Next time I return, I may get no sugar. I will admit, though, these toppings did not mix well with Thai Tea (what was I thinking?) but for the best bang for your buck, I admit Noble Tea is probably the best option around Sawtelle / Westwood!
No messing around with this place. You get what you want and it's favorable. I got the mango slush with coconut jelly. It's just the right sweetness and coolness in the starting to get warm Cali weather in April. Self service console so it be a little annoying to scroll through especially for the senior crowd. The server really call out your drinks so have to watch carefully on your order what you get. I almost got someone else's drink but I was patient to wait these days. Go get one of these. It's refreshing for the long hot drive.
Tried this place out and the black milk teas were pretty good!!! I took off one star bc the crystal boba was a tad small and hard. Service was fast. It's located in a very small space so don't expect to sit down and chit chat with your friends. Will come back to give them another shot. Check them out!
