Ding Tea Downtown San Jose 88 East San Carlos Street, San Jose, CA 95112

"Ding Tea is a quick and easy boba spot if you are nearby and want something very no-frills, but still retaining some quality. They offer a variety of tea flavors and options. All the fruit teas are flavored through syrups and the milk teas by default use a non-dairy creamer. If you are vegan, be careful as non-dairy creamers are usually not fully vegan so be sure to order with a plant-based milk, which was available here. I ordered an Oolong Milk Tea with Oat Milk and Golden Boba ($7) and it was just what I wanted. The boba was soft and slightly different than the black pearls that I'm used to, but it was a good drink that scratched that itch. Service was very quick and they happily answered my questions before ordering."

"Glad there's a Ding Tea now in the south bay! The only one I've been to were in Seattle and Socal. My go-to order is the passion fruit green tea. Flavor was slightly different. Boba was ok. My friend got the mango green tea and didn't really like it. Did not have a mango taste. Overall experience, 3.5 rounded to 4. I did come by during their grand opening time...so hopefully with a few months under their belt, they improve on their drinks. In downtown San Jose. Parking can be a bit difficult."

"New BOBA spot in DTSJ! Very delicious boba! It seems like they are still working in progress with their space. Friendly service though! It was cute that they held an raffle as well. I didn’t win sadly but lovely place so check it out!"
