Very nice tea, dirty brown sugar has nice cream on top, not too sweet just right. Taro tastes authentic tea not with artificial powder like other places. Appreciate they use biodegradable straw too.

Gong Cha is a real nice milk tea boba shop. Step up to order your drink and wait a few minutes. The all space does get cramped so... The sign to help guide your order maybe blocked. First timers, it's quite simple; 1. Choose your drink, Hot or Cold. 2. Choose your size Medium or Large 3. Add your toppings, Boba, Jelly, Crumbs 4. Choose your sweetness 0 - 100, stay around 30 is enough 5. Choose level of Ice The Green Milk tea with bubbles at 0 was still sweet, whereas the plain tea was of course not. Many things to choose from and a great park to sit and enjoy a few steps away. Gong Cha will cost about $6 a drink $8 if you get a large $10 if additional toppings.

Always our go to boba shop every Sunday, ordering our all time favorite bobas and always perfect in taste. Boba pearls are always cooked just right, chewy and sweet. Staff are friendly and fast in serving. They also had the good tasty brew of hibiscus tea one of my favorite. Parking is just a bit difficult in the area but it’s worth it. Definitely will always be part of our Sunday routine. Overall awesome experience.

Lemon Ai-yu white perl 75% sugar (next time I will try 50%), less ice. No need to add additional topings is a plus. Visually the drink looks neat. It is jello like "perl" not the same as boba. + Use of PLA straws (Biodegradable plastic straws) was a very nice touch. Passion fruit green tea wasn't bad either, but didn't wow 😲 like Lemon ai-yu

This place is great. Simple selection. Although I did find it confusing in the beginning that you have to choose several things such as sugar level, ice level, etc. I got used to it very quickly. I ordered lychee iced tea with boba which tasted very good. The straws they had were too small for the boba, but other than that the drink was very good. Highly recommend if you're around.

The ability to completely customize my milk tea is why I come back. From the amount of ice, to the sweetness level, it's all exactly how I want it.

I love the set up for covid! They have one entrance and one exit on opposite sides of the building so there is less contact. Though you are free to leave from the entrance I appreciated the effort. You can drink your order inside they have one little area where people were eating inside at bar type seating but only about two people (estimate because I left after receiving my order). Medium Brown Sugar Milk Tea (added pearls): Regular sugar and ice. This drink had a very strong roasted/toasted tea flavor and was the favorite of our order today. The milk flavor isn't too strong and for me it wasn't too sweet but if you like things less sweet I recommend 30% sugar since it does also have brown sugar. The pearls were chewy and a little harder than the boba I am used to (still great and not hard just not as soft as I am used to) great if you like chewier pearls. Earl Grey Milk Tea with 3 J's (Large): (30% sugar, no ice) This drink was good but had a much stronger milk taste than the Brown Sugar Milk Tea I only got the Earl Grey flavor in the aftertaste. Still great just be aware the tea flavor is more subtle. The three jellies inside were great though I personally couldn't tell a difference (not jelly educated). Lemon Ai-Yu White Pearl (Large): (no sugar, no ice) Very good, tasted like a juice with added jelly and pearls. Great if you like to join boba runs but don't like tea or milk (like me). Just be aware the white pearls don't have a taste and have a very different texture than the brown sugar/ regular brown boba. I would compare it to a harder/ chewier jelly more than I would boba, though it is also ~100 calories less than regular boba so maybe also good for dieters? Anyways it is great and I personally recommend this drink the most!
