First time visiting! Ordered a lychee green tea with rainbow jelly with 50% sugar level. It still tastes sweet enough so I personally enjoyed it! The vibe of the place is really nice, I noticed they have board games for entertainment and foosball, plus they have different types of sitting spots that are great for groups or if you need to use your computer.

Hands down best taro smoothie I have ever tasted. I ordered Taro Oreo Tornado. This location is the only one that does it.. I went to ding tea in Mira Mesa, corona, orange county and riverside.. Ding Tea Balboa is the only place that does TARO OREO TORNADO. and it is absolutely delicious.. I would love to know the calorie count... Or perhaps the sugars or nutrition facts. Or maybe I don't. Taro Oreo Tornado is 100% to die for

Really nice staff! They have board games(like Uno, Jenga, Conect 4, Monopoly, etc) and lots of sitting space. Everything is very clean and drinks are good. Plenty of parking out front.

This is a classic boba spot with a convenient location. The menu has lots of different options from slushes, yogurt drinks, and milk teas. The secret menu is displayed on the screens and they're relatively decently priced. Plus, their boba texture is consistent. I got enticed by their monster series which is their brown sugar drinks line. There's just something about the mixture of fresh milk and brown sugar that's always good, but their flavored cream on top makes it a little bit more special. I got the matcha and ube taro one and I can see myself getting either one again. Service: Simple ordering process but if you go on busier nights, the line can have a bit of wait for the ordering process. Drinks come out fast though. Ambiance: Plenty of tables and chairs so it's good for groups or studying.

Ordered their coconut juice but it was literally all ice and barely any liquid. Their other drinks are really good though.

Great drinks and excellent service! The staff is always friendly and helpful. My favorite boba shop in town! Only downside is the unbearable sound the foosball table makes when being played- can't hang out in peace. Someone PLEASE WD-40 that thing

Go here regularly. Your very back to basic boba place - which isn't bad at all. Has all the standard drinks and toppings. Positives include: (1) Big area with many tables to study or meet up with friends (2) Not always crowded, which makes it easy go to place. (3) They also have a sour sop drink I like (4) Monster boba latte is also very good (5) Very clean. Never seen any sticky residue on tables. (6) Staff is very friendly.

A classic boba spot, my go-to drinks are the Thai tea and strawberry marble. Prices are reasonable and i love how they always play kpop inside!

Prices are reasonable at this location. I like that they have a big menu, lots of options to choose from. I like the wintermelon milk tea, and the taro Oreo tornado was quite good too (but slightly film-y on your tongue). Their monster bobo drinks are good as well. Whenever I've tried the yakult drinks they're pretty decent as well. I really appreciate that they have a lot of non-caffeinated options.

This is my favorite Ding Tea location amongst all the other ones I've gone to (OC and Riverside). Drinks: In my opinion, there are more options on their menu and their boba tastes good. Their drinks are pretty consistent. Ambiance: I also enjoy the indoor seating and entertainment areas. They have a pool table and activities in general. They have a couch and other seating with tables. It's always decorated very nicely.

I'm hooked on these 2 Vietnamese coffees with ube and cheese foam! Both are delicious. I order them a couple times a week. Must try.
