DABOBA - Santee

I finally had a chance to try DABOBA Santee location after seeing so many posts about this place on social media. I'm a fan of boba tea drinks. I had my first boba tea in Montreal, Canada a few years ago and hadn't been able to find another good location like it until DABOBA.I ordered the,"Roasted Brown Sugar Pearl Milk Tea," seems to be the most popular one and it was so delicious!! This drink was so good my hubby drank half of mine and he's not even a fan of boba drinks!!lol There are several DABOBA locations in Santee, Mira Mesa, Rancho Bernardo and Kearny Mesa. The Santee location was very clean and decorated nicely with plants everywhere. It's such a cute hangout to meet your bestie and catch up. I loved the Bear theme so much!! The business is in a plaza easy to find parking. The employees were very nice and friendly. I'm looking forward to driving 25 minutes to get this drink again and try others!! Give them a try! Happy Yelping :)

I stopped by on a hot summer day for a boba and was so disappointed they don't offer a blended Thai tea! When I asked, they said it was because they don't have a recipe to follow (boo!).I ended up trying a blended mango drink with yogurt, which was just ok. They also have seating inside, and the restaurant is clean.

We're looking for a place to do a milk tea bar/station for a private event and decided to try daboba. The location is very cute inside, but I think they could use a good clean. We walked in and the crew continued their conversation and didn't ask if we had any questions or anything. After we ordered our drink, we asked about catering and the girl working wasn't sure and, to be honest, I don't think the guy working was sure either. We asked if they do full catering by the jug and he said "yea if you want like a massive container we could do that.." then later said, "so you'd have to bring your own massive container for tea........ and smaller containers for toppings........ and I don't think we'll have enough cups so you'd have to bring your own cups, but we'll have the straws."Uhhhhhh what? So you don't do catering?? It sounds like the guy was thinking they'd just make their pitcher and pour it into our own containers. Also! He kept trying to tell us what day we should do our event based on the staff that would be there to make our drinks. As for the actual tea flavor itself, it was just ok, but the cup seemed rather small for the price. Maybe try somewhere else.

The place is sooooo cute!! I really love all the plants that they have!!! Customer service is excellent!! There's so many choices!! This is a really cute place to take a picture! So we tried some drinks. I ordered the black tea, I know it's boring but it was a HOT day! The drink is perfect!! My daughter got the avocado smoothie. Her drink is really good too.. she was drinking her drink so I couldn't take a pic. This is by far our favorite DA Boba!! Really cute place and great drinks! We will be back to try more drinks!

Really cute place to hang out. Love their boba teas! They recently changed their couches and look even better. Love their hanging plants and ambience of this place to meet with friends!

The service was quick and fast! I enjoyed their iced green tea and it was exactly what I needed after a hot day in Santee, CA. The staff is super nice and I loved their unique plants hanging from the ceiling.

Honestly, I have to try this place again because I didn't order Boba. I just got a fruit tea.. the staff was nice and the store was clean and decorated with a lot of greenery/plants.

Their ice teas are so refreshing they taste perfectly balanced I always get a 25% sweetness . My kiddos love their strawberry smoothie booba taste fresh they are always super friendly and the place smells delicious

This is boba shop is so pretty that I just want to sit there all day and slowly sip on my boba! I really love the decor here and kudos to the owners for creating such an inviting atmosphere!The brown sugar milk tea with boba is yummy! The boba is really soft! This is one of the newer chains, so stop by and check them out!

DABOBA has been on my eye for a while and was finally able to go in tonight.We ordered a strawberry green milk tea with honey boba and roasted brown sugar fresh milk with boba.The service was quick and the workers were patient and kind as I ordered which I appreciated as it was my first visit!
