Tastea Fountain Valley 17150 Brookhurst Street, Fountain Valley, CA 92708

"Out of all the Tasteas I've been to, this one is pretty average. Been to a one in Corona, used to frequent one in Diamond Bar/City of Industry. I don't know what it is, most likely residual pandemic, but prices are going up across the board, with a boba coming out to $8 for just a small size, this includes mandatory tips too because you can't not feel obligated to. I feel for the workers too, as I work in the service industry myself. Boba is a treat now, not a regular fun outing at night. But to be poignant, the green matcha milk tea tastes nothing like matcha, it just tastes like jasmine milk tea. The taro is above average, but I can tell its just a premade powder, its not real taro. The taro smoothie actually has more flavor though, I will give them that. These franchises are kind of making generic pre-made stuff. And I've worked at Starbucks, so I know what that's like, but kind of miss the real flavors here. I'll only stick to the classic regular flavors I know and love from the 90s here, like any black teas and the jasmine tea, but will not try others. At $8, I expect the quality to stay consistent, but there's no depth and really lacks that extra something. However, I like its convenient location, I can order and walk over to pick up, and that is its one quality in why I still come back some times."

"This is probably the best spot out of the franchise. The drinks are on point and the food is good but the service is great. A lot of people come here to chill and great vibe."

"Terrible service, Miss Inmate was very rude when serving. Please hire people capable of doing the job."

"5/5, this place is known for the best fruit boba. I got the unknown passion fruit and mango signature fruit boba with the honey boba. Getting reduced sugar should be mandatory but I recommend that you get 70% sweetness if you aren’t used to 110% sweet. The honey boba isn’t sweet but was really good, it actually offered contrast to the sweetness of the tea."

"Overall: If you want milk tea with fresh fruit bits and a healthier choice instead of the powder they use at other bubble tea joint, then Tastea is the place for you. Ambience: Searing is limited. Very colorful building. There are seats outside as well. Parking: Parking is shared with 24 hour fitness. Good luck finding parking."
