So delicious! Each dessert is so cute and well made. My friends and I fell in love with the Boba Milk Teas and the Macaroons!! The donuts are super tasty and have a unique texture I’ve never tasted before❤️ Such a fun spot to bring your friends! Parking wasn’t bad and that’s hard to say for spots around LA haha!

I love love love love it here. The minute I walked in here. Love it here. 💖💖💖 I love love love their mochi donuts, I love their ube mochi donut. I love their ube soft serve and matcha soft serve with boba I love their macarons also. Get the ube flavor macaron. I love their BTS posters so you can take photos next to it or for your Instagram posts and snapchat or tiktok. They have kpop events so not just BTS. Why are you still reading this? Just go in here, buy and eat their mochi donuts, soft serve boba. They tables and chairs outside their patio. The owner is cool here, Brian and his son. 👍👍👍 FYI, they also own Moodaepo kbbq.

Loved the skewered style foods. Fishcakes were soft and tasty. The broth had great flavor as well. Rice cake skewers with chicken/sausage were yummy! Nice staff, good food, easy to pay (Venmo).

Large indoor space with high ceiling 🤩. Don’t u miss working at a coffee shop? I do. Next, the menu! Extensive!! They have everything from mochi donuts 🍩, cakes 🍰, to ice cream 🍨, and boba drinks 🥤. Everything is perfect for takeout 🥡. Promise your weekend will be a little more joyful after you visit this place 😊😁. ⁣ •⁣⁣ We ordered: 🌈 Crepe Cakes & Tiramisu⁣ 🍩 Mochi Donuts Assortments⁣ 🍨 Brown Sugar & Ube Ice Cream⁣ 🥤 Boba Drinks ⁣

Dragon Boba is a midsize bubble tea and donut shop on S. Western avenue in the heart of LA’s K-Town. I was eager to visit that I was the first to arrive, hence their first business transaction. Oh yeah!! Anyways, they have plethora of drinks/food snacks on their menu. I chose one of their famous BS Dragon Series, the Ube Halaya Milk Tea with boba. Moreover, I ordered their mochi donut (matcha and ube flavors) which I never tasted before. I was excited to taste them all. Ube Halaya Milk tea was flavorful and perfectly made that your palate will enjoy. Boba pearl was chewy and soft. Similarly, their flavored mochi donuts were soft, sweet and puffy. They gave me an extra donut due to a promotion they’re having. Cool! I utterly enjoyed it. Service staff were amiable, professional and followed health protocol. Free Wifi available but wasn’t working. Prices were fair except for mochi donut w/c was expensive. Parking is available at the Open Bank next door but mostly it’s metered street parking; I had no difficulty finding a parking spot. Overall, I had a good order experience and utterly enjoyed my milk tea boba and their fluffy, puffy mochi donuts. I highly recommend Dragon Boba Y’all.

This would've gotten 4 stars but I'm a bit disappointed that even though I ordered a 2 donuts w a drink I wasn't even offered the special donut cup w my drink :/ I didn't even know until I saw other customers w it. Pretty sad. Earl gray blueberry mochi donut: Pretty good but I don't necessarily taste the earl grey. It tastes more like blueberry w a slight herbal tea tartness. Also the donuts aren't as oily tasting as fill and still taste pretty good refrigerated. Ube mochi donut: Has that coconut vanilla mild taro flavor rather than a rich and creamy ube. It's good but not what I expected. Ube hayala milk tea w dragon boba: The boba is actually pretty good. No weird raisin flavor from the brown sugar. The drink is alright; it's a bit on the sweet side. It's more like a taro milk tea rather than ube hayala. Sakurambo 1/2 sweet w honey boba: Pretty good. A little bit too sweet so maybe next time I'll get 0 sweet. The tea kind of tastes like cherry apple. It's hard to describe but it's good.

Wow, definitely an unexpected gem! I was sad when I heard Milk Tavern was gone, but this place is so good. They also have a food cart right outside, but I'm not sure if it's open during COVID currently. 🍵 Food/Drinks: I got the virgin mojito in lychee flavor with Dragon Boba (boba with brown sugar) and it's definitely the best drink I've had I've had in a while (it is quite sweet though, so I'd recommend asking for less sweet). Their teas also have a delightfully strong tea flavor! The ube icecream was incredibly flavorful too. All-around very excited to try more - they also have traditional Korean teas, slushs, boba icecream, cake, mochi donuts coming soon, and a lot more. 🧑‍🍳 Service: The baristas were very patient and kind! The owner even came out to ask how everything was, and was super nice. 🌄 Ambience: It's a pretty sizeable space, not cramped at all. They have K-pop playing on the screens, and the decor is pretty standard yet stylish. For sure coming back here to try more of their huge menu 🤩 (Their COVID hours are 12pm-10pm daily except Tuesday, but will change to 12pm- midnight in the future.)

Unfortunately I was underwhelmed. Initially I loved that they had so many types of desserts, but after trying a couple I only really liked one. I ordered 4 mochi donuts which were good, but I've had better. I ordered 1 pint of boba ube ice cream and 1 tiger milk boba both were icy and not the best texture/flavor. I also ordered the quatro berry cake which is gorgeous and generally my favorite cake, but this tasted fermented I think it went bad. The ube crepe cake was the best thing I ordered, if I ever come back it would be for that, so so good! Also got the ube halaya milk tea 50% sweet and it was ok. The boba inside was great though. Wish I enjoyed dragon boba more.
