I love it. So good! My favorite is the RBS avocado. I have been hooked since the first time I tried it. It's so creamy and just heavenly! I constantly come back twice a week or more, and we live up north, about 20 minutes away. But honestly, it's worth the drive!!! In addition, one time I accidently left my purse with all my IDs, credit cards, and cash. I was so worried somebody might have picked it up. When I came back, they verified the color and brand of purse. I got it back with all my stuff untouched. They are very honest and have high integrity. I am a fan and supporter forever of the Mira Mesa Daboba. Don't go to the other Dabobas. This is the best one!

I originally ordered a kumquat lemon green tea at 50% sugar because the cashier told me the drink would be stronger (and not that sweet); however, it was wayyy too sweet for me so I had to ask them to help me make it less sweet. Unfortunately, or fortunately, they can't just dilute it after the fact, so they had to make a new drink for me. They asked if I wanted 0% or 25%, and I almost made the wrong choice again. Luckily, the kind bobarista suggested 0% (so we could just make it sweeter after if I needed to). She also let me sampled the 0% version before making it into the full drink. That 0% actually already tasted sweet to me, so it was perfect. My bf got his cheese winter melon tea at 25% and it was perfect as well. Very solid wintermelon. Their cheese cream is good and it blended well with the wintermelon.

Service was a 5/5, helped us with the menu and was so friendly. The boba itself was delicious. However, I did find myself not liking my drink due to the sweetness level. That of course could have been on my on asking for less sweater. The taste was good but again, just for my personal preference it was to sweat. The place is clean and good amount of sitting area. The decor is also super cute!

This place was just chaotic. Came on a Mon around 2 and it was packed. It's a small interior but all the tables were taken, people were standing and sitting waiting for their drinks and even more people constantly coming in. To be fair, there were only two people working and they were trying their best but even waiting in line to order it took about 10 min before the person before me was helped.I got the Japanese roasted milk tea. Pretty disappointing all around. It just tasted like a standard milk tea but definitely more milky than tea. No roasted flavor whatsoever.Note that they only have parking behind the store. It's a little confusing on the map since it'll tell you the street entrance but you can't actually park on the road.

The Kearny Mesa location is far-and-away managed much better than this oddly located one in Mira Mesa. There is parking in the rear in addition to the spots near Tasty Pot and the Chinese restaurant but you still need to snake your way into the complex. My tried and true order at Daboba is the Creme Brulée Brown Sugar w/ Matcha Pearls. For some reason, the drink was barely torched on top with the serious lack of that delightful crunch. Also, way too much ice despite the "less ice" request and some tapioca pearls/ boba were floating at the top for some reason. Somehow, they even added an exorbitant amount of cream, the liquid matcha portion virtually non-existent. That being said, I will stick to the superior KM location!

Stopped in after having lunch next door and the shop was so cute with nice decor. Ordered a matcha drink and a passionfruit drink and it was very refreshing for the hot day. Service was good and quick. We have a location close to home too.

Daboba in Mira Mesa - Boba BlissYo, if you're in Mira Mesa and need a boba fix, hit up Daboba. My absolute fave is the Avocado RBS - it's like, avocado meets brown sugar boba in the best way possible. Super creamy, perfectly sweet, and those boba pearls? Chewy goodness in every sip.The place itself has a chill, modern vibe with comfy spots to sit and chat. The staff is super friendly and fast, always down to help you pick or tweak your drink. If you haven't tried the Avocado RBS, you're seriously missing out. Go get one - trust me, it's worth it.

The drinks here are great! Especially any of the RBS options. The shop is small but I Love the different seating areas. Please do something different with the dome lids, it never stay on and spills everywhere! Same with the straws, they're so brittle that it crack down the side more often than not.

I'm usually pretty meh about most boba shops, 'cause they all feel pretty similar to me as far as quality goes. (Sorry, maybe I'm an unrefined boba drinker...) But Daboba revamped their menu and created a new drink that swept me off my feet! Cheesefoam wintermelon green tea! 10/10 would recommend.The 4-stars is because everyone else's drinks were meh. It's too risky of business to be ordering all their other drinks just to try them, so I'd only come here for select drinks. Hangout vibes are good, unfortunately they close pretty early (9:30pm) - so we got kicked out. But cute space and easy parking in their shared lot. Parking is always a mini-plus in my books!

This is a great boba place. The boba came out warm, covered in that sweet delicious brown sugar, and was so chewy and satisfying. I got the roasted brown sugar (brûlée) matcha and it was so good. The matcha had a good flavor and the brûlée sugar crystals offered a fun bite. I believe it was topped with cheese foam. My husband got cheese foam too and it wasn't our favorite. It was rather bitter and very very thick which made it hard to drink at the end when you're trying to get all the boba through the straw! The menu was large which was exciting. It's generally a cute place to catch up with friends and service was friendly. The place needed to be temp controlled though because the day we came it was soooo hot inside with the only door closed too. I'd definitely be back if I were to dine at the nearby restaurants.
