Taste Tea Cafe

Surprised that there was no in seating availability but stayed for the smell of the food. We got two drinks, popcorn chicken, and bok choy. Chicken was soft not dry and very tasty. Bok chop was simple and steamed to perfection. Oh my lord. Everything was cooked so well and tasty. Would love to come back here!!

Fresh tasting milk teas, extensive snack and meal menu, attentive workers. One of the only classic Taiwanese cafes left in the area, upgraded from a Tapioca Express/Boba Stop (for the real locals). Never ending menu unlike all the bougie tea shops now, they also care so much more for their food options unlike the other shops that only have as much as you can count on your fingers. For example the meal plates have 3 sides that make it more than a complete dinner. The only downside is inside seating hasn’t reopened since Covid, which isn’t a big deal, but would be nice to have that complete the cafe feel as the vibe is nice enough to study inside for a few hours. One of the few local shops I want to last forever.

Popcorn chicken is excellent compared to other stores in the area. Rose milk tea and mix fruit tea are great. Only problem I have is the lack of indoor seating.

Out of 5 Cleanliness ?? Service 3 Food 5 Atmosphere ?? Price 4 When I went, they had only the front door open. The interior is blocked off by a table and I’m not sure if they are still serving hot food. So I can’t relay on cleanliness or atmosphere. The drinks are strong and tasty! My friend loves this place and recommended it to me. I’ve gone back twice already. Service is okay… the guy (I think is the owner), doesn’t have the best customer service skills but he’s not mean either. Just kinda curt but he makes an awesome tea. Would recommend if you are ok taking your tea to go!

I'm happy that this place stuck around. Their tea never fails to be delicious, and it's probably the best around. Owner is also still a good guy. COVID food to go was simple & easy (I ordered via phone). Combos come with a green tea or a black tea, and there's plenty of food in the meal. Vegetarian review: bean curd meal has vegetarian sides. I think almost all their sides are vegetarian anyway, or you can request they double up on an item that is. You get three sides, lots of rice, and lots of fried bean curd. Green onion pancake- I don't know if they make these themselves, but they're worth getting pretty much all the time.

The boba was delicious! We came towards closing and neither of our two drink were watered down! My boyfriend said that his brown sugar milk tea was perfect!! I got a lavender milk tea with rainbow jelly and it was delicious. I also liked that they had sweetness options and a very large menu with any flavor option/combination you would want! And the total for both drinks was only about 10 dollars. Overall I had a great experience and will definitely be revisiting soon!

Went here to have dinner but noticed that most people were just getting drinks. Lighting was dark, especially where we were seated. I ordered the wintermelon tea and the fried pork chop. Order came and the pork chop was huge..but bland. I ate about half of it then took the rest home and noticed that the pork was undercooked on the part i didn't eat. Never coming back here.

My first visit to this great place. It was such a nice timing there, the employees were so nice and attentive, they provided an accommodating service and I appreciate it. The food was great in portions and tasted amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.!!!

I recently placed an order online at Taste Tea Cafe. It was near the Cerritos Performing Arts Center and I needed a meal before heading to the venue. I was craving Taiwanese food and decided to order there. I was pleasantly surprised at not only how delicious (and plentiful) the food and drinks were but at how much care and love the owner took packing my order. He truly made the experience exceptional! - It was so wonderful, I felt compelled to drive back the next day for more delicious food and drinks! It's a 30 minute drive, but this will be my new go to place especially on the weekends! The owners hospitality truly sets the cafe apart from others and makes it a must-visit spot! Thank you so much Taste Tea!

Haven't been to a taste tea cafe in a long time Located in a parking lot - looks to be order to go only as the seating and entrance area is blocked off For the online order aspect only - easy to use site but I did notice somethings on their menu was not available online Also there is a .99 fee when placing the order online. The physical menu shows the item order actually cheaper than what is posted on their website. Order place for pork and bamboo meal - menu shows 15.99 and online shows 17.59... The owner did reach out to communicate when placing an order to either call in or simply order in person as it is a 3rd party site utilize to placing orders.. so an FYI For the food! (Also note when placing the order online pickup time will literally be close to the minute stated on order) Boba, teas, meals, and appetizer - large variety !!! Food was piping hot Well package Pork stew and bamboo shoot - tender, meaty, great ratio of meat and fat, fat was tender and not overwhelming Bamboo shoot crunchy goodness! Came with hot fluffy rice, broccoli, eggplant and garlicky potato side, and a dessert item? Easily shareable! Leftover yes or very sizable meal to consume! Will return! 2-3 chairs outside to sit. Appears to be very minimal folks working so just be patient as the gentleman see was making drinks, getting food prep, and handling orders. Thanks for the tasty treat to self!

Been coming to this place for many years now, specifically for their meals. I usually order the popcorn chicken meal (mild). It comes with rice and 3 sides of veggies and tofu. Before covid, they used to have indoor seating, but now they just do takeout. I suggest calling in your order ahead of time, and it is normally ready within 10-15 minutes.

Fast service. Yummy food. Satisfied my craving of popcorn chicken and boba. Thank God for door dash

This boba shop is literally a hole in the wall serving delicious drinks! As you approach the cafe, you're immediately stopped at the door to order as the table/counter is in the doorway. They don't allow inside seating which is a bit weird but we ordered our drinks and waited outside as they made it. They used to provide a free upgrade to large if you checked in but not anymore which is unfortunate. I always go with the Taro Milk Tea, 50% sweetness, and it hits the spot.

What's in a name? Well, Taste Tea is quite tasty. Ordered house coffee and milk tea, both with boba. Checked in on Yelp for the free upsize. Also got a regular order of the popcorn chicken with mild spice to share with the kid. Everything was made well--chewy boba, juicy chicken, delicious drinks. Food was ready 7 or so minutes after ordering online via Grubhub. Also really appreciate that they allow the Yelp check in upgrade with Grubhub pick up. Was to-go/pick up only so don't expect to be able to dine or otherwise hang out here.

I came here because my friends recommended it. I got the passion fruit tea with boba and it was really good. The boba was perfectly cook. I love that you are able to choose your sweetness level and it's reasonable priced. The only thing I would change might be the service. They weren't the nicest and it took a while to get the drink.

While I thought I was ordering from tasty cafe, this is another place with a very similar name. I'm glad I went to this one because the popcorn chicken was bomb! The mild spice was delectable. The customer service was great and at that time they didn't have an indoor seats available to eat. Service was quick and the ambiance was at a small location in artesia. I will probably get their boba next time I'm here but you're in good hands if you love popcorn chicken!

I was excited to find a place that had a full tea menu and a full food menu. When I got there, the dining room was still closed like COVID times. Luckily, they had one table outside that my son and I could eat at. We ordered tea, popcorn chicken and minced pork rice. To start, the tea was great. It was flavorful and not overly sweet and chemically. The popcorn chicken had good flavor but could have used, at least, another 30 seconds to a minute in the fryer. It was a little too soft and gave the consistency of being undercooked even though it wasn't. Lastly, the minced pork was tasty. It was accompanies by sauced tofu cubes, sunomono, rice and some combination of sliced potatoes, radish and carrot. I'm not 100% sure if that is the right combination. It was fine but didn't have much flavor. I'd probably give this place another try but I would ask for the chicken to be crispy and try other menu items.

3.5 stars... This place is only to go. You can't eat inside, not since Covid. It's really a shame because we used to like their atmosphere and food but this time was sub par. I think it's because it's not as fresh and maybe they allowed the quality to go down. Also, prices sky rocketed. the below was almost $62!! 4/5 Pork stew - bf liked it! 3/5 Beef noodle soup - meat a little dry and some pieces were completely hard fat that was hard to even chew. Noodles came heated up already but they were overdone and too mushy. broth wasn't too salty. Big portion. Expensive. Price went way up. 4/5 Green onion pancake - not so crispy. Flavor good though. didn't come with any sauce. 2/5 Popcorn chicken - mushy, hard and dry. Chicken wasn't good quality. Ordered spicy and there was no spice. Barely any flavoring at all actually. 3/5 Rose milk tea - used to have a strong rose flavor. Now it doesn't. It was good but not the same. I miss the old one. 5/5 Honey milk green tea - great! Sweet enough at 75%

Easy ordering online or by a phone call. Quick pick up process, convenient parking space. But the food is the primary reason for me to go back to this joint. They have the best popcorn chicken in Cerritos. Of course their ground beef meal and pork belly stew meal are superb as well.

1. The smoothie was refreshing, but that Hot Grass Jelly is amazingly delicious! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes, but there is no dine-in! 3. The staff were friendly and honest about the prep time! Note: For the drinks, the prep time took 10 mins! Photo: Chocolate Smoothie and Hot Grass Jelly

This cafe is definitely one of my favorite boba spots! (as you can tell from my 18 check-ins lol) I usually get the wintermelon milk tea or formosa milk tea because I'm more of a milk tea person, but they have so many options ranging from all the fruity teas to barley milk tea (which i've heard is amazing too!) Their tea tastes fresh and 100% sweetness can be a bit sweet so I always get it 75% or 50%. Their boba is also the perfect sweetness and consistency, not too hard or chewy. The food is pretty decent if you're looking for a snack, but not super memorable. They used to be open for dine-in before covid, but haven't reopened the dining room since so now they only do takeout. I wish they'd reopen because I used to take my friends here as a hangout spot. I recommend this place to all my friends even though it's out of the way from where I live. I've also brought so many friends and family here and have multiple stamp cards! Make sure to check in on yelp for the free large upgrade. :)

So I've been coming here for a little while now and recently my friend and I were in the mood for some snacks so decided to order popcorn chicken, fish balls, and taiwanese sausages to munch on. Not only has the price gone way up, but the portions seem a little skim. Plus, Idk why, maybe it was an off day, everything seem under seasoned? AND my friend and I suspect they're watering down their sweet chili sauce. It's a shame. I'm not sure if I'll be visiting here anymore. I might as well just drive myself to tastea for their overpriced popcorn chicken. Service is still good, really nice folks. Plenty of parking.

The interior is blocked off by a table and I'm not sure if they are still serving hot food. So I can't relay on cleanliness or atmosphere. The drinks are strong and tasty!

Would recommend if you are ok taking your tea to go!

A staple boba shop in the area! Has the best teas in the area Your new go-to for popcorn chicken Their meals are filling, nutritious, and delicious--packed with a variety of sides They don't fill your cup with ice! Their M-F lunch special (+free tea) is a great deal!

The pork stew had lots of flavor and I enjoyed that they give you different veggie sides. The squid balls were good and comes with a side of sweet and sour sauce. I got a honey green milk tea and a coconut milk tea to drink. It has a authentic tea taste and it was the perfect amount of sweetness.

I am upset with myself not trying this little place much earlier till now. Ordered 14 lunch boxes for office. The order was ready exactly the time owner promised, all nicely packed and with all the condiments and utensils, along with the free drinks. We were so eager to dive into the beautifully arranged lunch boxes (each came with the main meat entree+rice and 3 little side dishes) and free black/green tea that we forgot to take pictures. The portions were hearty, the ladies can have 2 meals out of the one box! The food was very good, I personally had the pork stew and I have to say it was absolutely delicious, but couldn't finish, so it was lke spending $16 for 2 meals! The tea was TEA and free! Not sure if you all had free lunch tea that tasted more like sugar water than tea? This is true brewed tea! Unfortunately they don't have dine in still, but the to go was packaged so well it was still very good when we got back to the office to eat. I will be coming back for sure because it is almost cheaper than cooking myself

Solid popcorn chicken for $7.25 - got it spicy. It came with sweet and sour sauce which was weird and didn't go well with the chicken. The large popcorn chicken would've been something like $13.25? Not sure why there's such a huge jump from regular to large. Opted out of any boba cause their regular size starts at $4.50 or $4.75.

I wish they would open a location in LA - it's so good! I stopped by randomly since I was in the area and it the tea quality is great and the boba was well made!

Taste Tea Cafe is located in a strip mall with several Asian eateries and businesses with plenty of parking available. My husband and I decided to come here for some tea since we were in Cerritos. We came on a Saturday a little before 4 pm. The restaurant only had the front door open, that was blocked by a table so you can order (and not come inside). After looking over the menu, we ended up ordering: Almond Milk Tea (Large), $4.25 + $0.75- I ordered this drink to be made with no ice and 50% sweetener. This drink was way too sweet even at 50% sweetener and makes me wonder if the sweetener level was adjusted or if their drinks are really too sweet. Also this drink had a gritty bottom, which tells me it was made with powder and wished it was better mixed in. Lavender Milk Tea (Large) $4.25 + $0.75- My husband ordered this drink to be made with no ice and 50% sweetener too. Same as my drink, his drink was way too sweet and also powdery at the bottom. ------------------------- (Total= $10) Please note that this place has a Yelp check in deal of a free upgrade to large size with check in. A bit disappointed that the drinks were too sweet and powdery. I don't see myself coming back here, although they do have food at this cafe and think that may be better than the drinks.

There are many tea cafes in the Cerritos-Artesia area and this place is one of the better ones. It's a family run shop, in an older plaza off of Norwalk Boulevard, and it's probably been around longer than any of the chain boba places. I stopped by for a Hokkaido milk tea with boba. They have a large number of tea choices as well as some food options on the menu. The pleasant woman who took my order made sure to ask what sweetness level I wanted (on the sweeter side for me). It only took a minute or two to get my drink ready. The drink was great, the boba fresh and chewy. As this visit was during the infamous Covid era they were not allowing anyone inside the shop; a table blocked the doorway and you just ordered at the entrance and took your items to-go.

The best boba in all of Cerritos and the surrounding area. I have the best boba around the world and this is hands down superior to all the boba places in Cerritos. Not only this the owner has a big heart for his business. I Please go and support. I drive all the way from Long Beach to this place to treat myself. This is the original and best place for boba and drinks. Very high quality. Highly recommend!!! Everything I've tried has been the best

Bomb boba!!! Thank you for existing!!! Always a solid experience everytime I come. Please open one up in DTLA!

Food is good! My staple favorite is the pork stew meal. My family members have tried other things here as well. The sure love the minced beef and the pork chop. The spicy wontons is a must try. Not a veggie-eater but the veggies sides on their meals surprise me. They are all so good!! And I have been trying everything on their sides! It is a family friendly place. We are regular customers and we buy our food here at least once a week. They never disappoint. Reasonable prices too.

October 2021 Located in a small Asian shopping center with several food options. private lot. I placed my order Via Yelp(grub hub) and found that the wait time for my order was reasonable. There was a line out the door but it's because you can only do to go. The location is small but the quality of the fresh ingredients and the friendly staff is what keeps this business popular compared to the other boba shops. I ordered the popcorn chicken spicy with Lychee Green Tea. The popcorn chicken was well seasoned and lightly battered. I enjoyed how the pieces were fairly large and the batter wasn't overpowering the flavor.

Favorite smoothies and great takoyaki. Nice location to Cerritos High school, and great taste. While it is relatively pricy, I believe that it is worth the price for the quality.

Taste Tea Cafe's drinks are alright; maybe I haven't found my go-to yet. But let's talk about that popcorn chicken--absolute love! Pairing it with boba gives the whole experience a bonus point. #PopcornChickenLove #TasteTeaCafe

This place is awesome -- I usually come here to grab some green tea but they are always busy with takeout orders for their Asian food of which they have many options from Chinese, to Ramen to even Japanese Takoyaki! There is no inside seating, I guess during Covid they made it take out only and then stuck with it - the husband and wife who own the place are very nice, and the operation is low key but the service is very fast and I will be trying their food very soon, as the menu always looks great along with everything I see people ordering for takeout!

I wasn't able to have caffeinated drinks for a short period of time due to health and this spot has an entire non caffeine menu! The drinks are huge for regular size and very aesthetic and cute!! Yummy too.

Every weekend, we support local eats. Whether its local eats 5 minutes away or 60 minutes away, we will help by doing takeout. Today, due to a lack of time we came here. A place only a few minutes away from our house. It was fast and convienant. Due to covid, you walk up and there is venmo and paypal payment options. Of course, we paid via CC. The wait was only 10-15 min. We ordered the fried pork chop and the bamboo shoot with pork entree. All dishes comes with 3 little sides and it was stir fry sesame oil veggies/vinegar cucumbers/and cooked carrot and squash. The sides were tasty, rice nearly perfect but couldn't say the same about the main. Especially on those pork chops, heres why. The two pieces of pork chops were drenched in fat. Not only that, it had bone on 1/3 of the portions. Not sure how this was possible since normal pieces next to the bone are typically meat. Also, the odds of getting both pieces that is pure fat is almost impossible. The seasoning on the pork chop however is spot on. It was a little sad to just lick the pork chops and not eat it. I do have to say the bamboo pork dish we ate the whole thing. The sauce was a little thin and the portion was a little small. Otherwise, that was a tastier dish. Not sure if coming mid afternoon and seeing the workers eating lunch was a bad time or not but perhaps I will give thia place another shot. I remember back in the day this place used to be Quickly and I came here for the same type of food and drinks. During these times, I wouldn't give low rating but 3.5 is what we've experienced. So we'll give 4 stars and try this place again one of these weekends. Happy to see they were busy with people ordering/picking up after our order.

Food is always amazing from this place, seems like it's run by a couple and they're always very fast in taking your order and offer nice service. Food can take a little while to come out as it's made fresh but it's definitely worth the wait! No restaurant seating at this time so it is take out only

I used to work nearby and would come for tea frequently and the tea never failed me. It's aromatic and strong enough. Their osmanthus oolong tea is very good. Their appetizers/snacks are really good too, I wouldn't say it's super special because it's standard like a lot of boba/milk tea places, but does not disappoint at all. However, I'm quite impressed by their meals. I believe I've gotten the mushroom chicken stew rice and tonkatsu ramen. Both are good, I really liked the mushroom chicken stew rice. Packaging is great as well. This time, I ordered on DoorDash and picked the Sesame Dry Noodle with Bean Curd, and it was so delicious. To me, this was different and tasted very good. I believe they are rolled bean curds that are fried, and placed on top of some flat flour noodles with sesame sauce, along with a generous amount of cucumbers and corn. A great vegetarian option

They are only doing take out orders at the moment. I got an almond milk tea, less sweet but it was still a bit sweet. Not bad, but not great. I also got the pork chop rice... it wasn't the best. Slightly bland... big portions though. Not my favorite. There are good reviews for this place so maybe I just got the wrong thing... meh

While there are a respectful number of Taiwanese cafes in Cerritos and Artesia, Taste Tea Café just may be the best of the few I have tried. It is not often I makes statements like this. The combination of food taste and quality, selection of tea beverages, quantity and reasonable pricing clearly makes them my top choice for a Taiwanese café in the area. The meals, which come with two sides, are my favorite choices here. There are a number of delicious options, from the popular (Taiwanese beef or pork stew, minced beef with pan egg, braised pork chop, Taiwanese sausage) to the more adventurous (pork knuckle). All guaranteed to be made-to-order and full of flavor. The Beef Stew with Rice, $10.45 and Minced Beef with Pan Egg with Rice, $10.45 are the two dishes I have tried so far. Delicious, hearty and under $11. Recommended. The tea beverages are also fantastic: sharp, clean tea flavor, well blended, not overly sweeten. I am a particular fan of their flavored iced green and milk teas. But they have all the usual options expected from a Taiwanese café: oolong, coffees, traditional hot teas, smoothies. Additionally, they have flavored toasts, ice cream, popular appetizers like fried tofu, popcorn chicken, green onion pancake and many more. Noodle dishes, soups and ramen are also on the menu. There is convenient online ordering through their website. It is fast, efficient and reliable. Located in a strip mall, nearly next door to Red Palace Korean BBQ. Parking is plentiful. A good menu of delicious dishes, teas and appetizers. Fast and friendly service. There is no reason to go elsewhere if you are looking for a good Taiwanese café in the area.

Food was very good and flavorful and not too salty. Place is takeout only and local family owned place. The meals are like TV dinners / Bento box Chinese comfort food style. Ordered the pork stew (pork belly in minced pieces).... perfectly flavored and I really liked all the other sides and discovering what they were... there's was an eggplant potato side, sautéed squash, pickled Napa. Popcorn chicken was good too.

A family run shop that's local. It's a good place to stop by after work. They prepared food really fast it took less than 10 minutes for my order to be ready. The food pricing is pretty reasonable it was around $13 for the food tray set including 2 large pieces of fried pork chop, rice, and vegetable sides. The fried pork chop is pretty good and flavorful the only thing is I feel like it's quite fatty than what I'm used to. The Boba is expensive though, it was around $5.60 for a small 16oz boba drink. There's an additional 0.60 for boba with each drink. Currently there is no dine in.

Got the Thai milk tea and high mountain oolong milk tea. It was good overall. Thank you for the

My boyfriend and I have been frequenting Taste Tea Cafe ever since I discovered them last year during COVID and it's easily become our go-to spot for yummy Chinese/Taiwanese food! I've tried a number of dishes here, all of which I thoroughly enjoy and are in my rotation. + Pork Stew Rice (5/5) + Minced Beef Pan Egg with Rice (5/5) + Fried Spicy Chicken Rice (4/5) + Beef Bowl (5/5) Everything has been solid and there hasn't been a single dish that I didn't like. AND there's still a bunch I've been wanting to try! I think it's safe to say that this place definitely matches my palate. Not to mention, their drinks are TOP TIER. Both their milk and fruit teas are consistently delicious and their boba is always fresh/chewy. Hands down one of the better boba spots - and that's saying a lot considering this is Cerritos/Artesia area. For 2 entrees + 2 drinks, it comes out to around $40 or so. Might be kind of pricey for some, but I feel like with COVID and inflation costs, that's become the new standard. Regardless, you bet that Taste Tea Cafe has been added to my "Guilty Pleasures and Go-Tos" collection!

This is one wonderful boba place. David, the owner, even created and then added to the menu, for me, Sesame Milk Tea! .com !!! Must go try and go again and again!

Called the night before for my takeout order as I wanted to pick up right when they opened which they were able to accommodate. Love that they allow contactless payment w Venmo. 1. Mushroom ground pork rice meal- My friend enjoyed it. 2. Fried marinade chicken- I always get this. The chicken is lightly fried. Both meals come with a variety of vegetables and rice as well as an iced green or black tea. 3. Hot Grass Jelly- I usually like this room temperature, so I just opened the lid to let it cool to it after my meal. It's a good size that can be shared between 2-3 people and I like the chewy boba, red bean, and other toppings inside it. Now if tasted more like the herbal grass jelly, I'd love it even more. 4. Fried Tofu- Crispy, but not too fried. Perfect amount of seasoning.

Friendly service and great selection of drinks, meals, and snacks. Love the lunch or dinner boxes, and vegetarian options.

10/4/20 covid 19 takeout I had a really good experience ordering their takeout during this time. I was able to easily place my order on qmenu via the yelp app. Add in payment and receive text confirmation of the order receipt. Due to previous grub hub technical errors with other places, I always call just to make sure. My order was confirmed and they told me it's be done in 15mins. My husband and kids drop to the restaurant and pick up took two minutes. Very easy process and their take out food is on point. Beautifully presented and wonderfully flavored. My previous in dining experience a while back just wasn't great, but tonight made up for it. Chicken mushroom rice. Loved the green beans, pickled cabbage and cabbage sides. Meat was perfectly cooked and flavored. Not too salty. Pork stew rice: I love how they now cut the meat into thinner chunks. My children loved the soft and well flavored meat. The sauce over rice was awesome. Popcorn chicken: loved the marinade and outside skin. Super legit Taiwanese popcorn chicken. Unlike my previous experience, no gooey mush/meat filler between the meat and skin. Thanks for the improved quality taste tea cafe!!

Enjoyed this cafe! They are open during the COVID-19 quarantine for take-out. While you can't enter the inside of the restaurant, you can place your order by the door. I tried the Spicy Wontons and Tomato Fatty Beef Udon Noodle Soup - both of which were flavorful. I appreciated that they gave the noodles separately from the broth for take-out so the noodles wouldn't get too mushy. I also tried their Wintermelon Milk Tea - the drink was good and the boba had a good texture too. Would recommend asking for a lower sugar level though (75% was still a bit too sweet for me). If you check-in, you can get a free upgrade to a large sized drink. Overall, a good place for a bite, and will come back.

I'm happy that this place stuck around. Their tea never fails to be delicious, and it's probably the best around. Owner is also still a good guy. COVID food to go was simple & easy (I ordered via phone). Combos come with a green tea or a black tea, and there's plenty of food in the meal. Vegetarian review: bean curd meal has vegetarian sides. I think almost all their sides are vegetarian anyway, or you can request they double up on an item that is. You get three sides, lots of rice, and lots of fried bean curd. Green onion pancake- I don't know if they make these themselves, but they're worth getting pretty much all the time.

Consistent taste and friendly service! One of my favorite boba places and keep buying drinks here for over 6 years.

I'm so glad I finally tried this place. Great spot if you're missing that Taiwanese comfort food. I actually got too excited and dug into my food before take the pictures! The mince meat with egg comes in a bento box with two veggie sides. It was cooked perfectly to balance out the meat. The flavors of the meat was bold and has a hint of spiciness to it which was perfect to eat with the included rice. They also give you a generous portion. I also order the spicy wings which were ok. The wontons were good too. The peel was more on the thicker side but I didn't mind it too much. I would get it again to add variety to my meal. I would definitely come back another day to try out other items on the menu. Oh, the drink! If you check in on yelp they'll upgrade your drink. I got the black sesame milk tea with 50% sweet which was still too sweet for me. The drink has a nostalgic black sesame flavor to it. I added on pudding in it which made it fun to drink.

This a favorite spot in Cerritos for boba drinks. They have a lot of selections of drinks and food. I love that they have cold and hot drinks, traditional teas and fruity ones. You can also change the sweetness level, which I love. I usually get their almond milk tea with 75% sweetener. I've never had a better almond milk tea, and I have tried a lot. On a hot day I'll get their peach green or black tea and it's always perfect for me, 75% sweetness also. I have only tried a few things on their food menu like the minced beef and brick toast. Their portion sizes are very generous. It makes 3 small meals for me. Brick toast is always yummy. The service is always kind and quick. I don''t think they are open inside, at least the last time I went in early October. I moved away so I'm not sure about now but whenever my sis and I visit, it's a go to multiple times a week when we're home. They also give stamp cards, 1 stamp for each drink. I never forget it. Definitely a place worth trying!

I ordered the Beef Bowl Meal and an iced Mixed Fruit Tea which was generously upgraded to a large the food was delicious and really satisfying. I will definitely be back for more!
