Sunright Tea Studio - Diamond Jamboree Center

My regular boba place when I worked in Irvine.I used to be a regular customer at Sunright in the Jamboree Center during my time working in Irvine, and it quickly became one of my favorite spots. Recently, I had the chance to visit Irvine again, and of course, I couldn't resist stopping by to relive the experience. It had been far too long!Back in the day, my go-to drinks were the Matcha Milk Tea and Brown Sugar Milk Tea with 50% sugar. Both were consistently delicious, and the staff always made my drinks perfectly. They are friendly, attentive, and truly make you feel welcome every time you visit.This time, I decided to switch things up and try something new. As always, Sunright Tea exceeded my expectations! The quality and flavor of their drinks remain top-notch, and it's clear they take pride in delivering the best to their customers.Whether you're a regular or just passing through, this place is a gem worth visiting. The drinks are amazing, the service is great, and it's a spot I'll continue to visit whenever I'm in the area. Highly recommend!

Steep Thoughts: Florence's Quest for (Her) Perfect Black Milk TeaBlack milk tea: 1/2. I usually get the Ceylon Milk Tea, 25% sweet. Sunright doesn't have Assam which is my preferred black tea, as Ceylon is a little more floral and caramel-y than I usually prefer. Because of that, this specific drink is pretty average compared to other similar drinks in my opinion.Other drinks: 1/1. Good variety of milk teas vs fruity teas. The tapioca pearls are chewy and quite sweet.Ambiance: 0.5/1. This location is pretty small with no indoor seating or bathrooms. Because it's in Diamond Jamboree, it can get busy very quickly. If you're looking for a grab-and-go boba place or a place to study, this won't be the location for you.Service: 1/1. You can order using their digital screens or directly at the counter. Especially for how busy this location can get, drinks come out pretty quickly.Total: 3.5/5

I wanted to update my review since the business was kind enough to make things right and take in my feedback on the oolong tea strength.Our 2 updated drinks were better, but the oolong was still mild. I wish there was more flexibility on the strawberry matcha drink, but I can see why they force the sugar and ice levels they do.I'll be sure to visit more frequently now that I remember this location opens late.

I visited Sunright Tea Studio for the first time during a recent trip, and it was conveniently located near my hotel--a definite plus! I ordered the Brown Sugar Boba with pudding and grass jelly at 75% sweetness, and it was absolutely perfect. The flavors were well-balanced, and the sweetness level was just right without being overpowering.What really stood out was the boba itself--it was cooked perfectly, soft and chewy without any hint of hardness. Nothing ruins a good drink like undercooked boba, so this was a huge win.If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend giving Sunright Tea Studio a try!

Sunright is always consistently good for me. I decided to try their Brulee Oat Latte with Ceylon tea because they don't have it as a menu item in NorCal but I can probably make it up there too. It was good! I got it 50% sweetness since creme brulee was already in the drink, and it wasn't too sweet. We also got one of the omori collab drinks and the yakult was strong in this one but it was pretty good. We also had the four seasons latte; it wasn't too sweet at full sweetness and the flavor of the tea was very strong and fragrant. We got our drinks pretty quickly, despite how busy they were.

Of all boba spots available, I'm not so sure I'd come back. I ordered a taro frostie with honey boba on their kiosk. I found that their Yakult drinks were on their kiosk menu, but i wouldn't have known to look under their sunright tea category while I was searching on their website.The drink itself was okay, not very slush like I wanted. I am also irked with the different boba types. I wanted the black boba, which is my favorite and typically called honey boba. Why was this place giving me the clear boba? According to their website, It's the brown sugar boba that is the black boba. They also have agar boba which is also a clear boba.Don't forget to shake 17 times. Parking was easier than expected on a Saturday afternoon.

This sunright is located in the busy Jamboree, with plentiful parking-- but it does take time if you want princess parking. Seating is outside of the shop. There is one small bench inside the shop itself. Their cashiers have been friendly. Sunright is pretty consistent across their chain in terms of flavor. If you've only been to Sunright once, I suggest exploring and trying different drinks. I personally never had a good experience with the yakult drinks (but I have heard a couple people enjoy them at 100% sweetness), but I've liked all the other drinks I've ordered. They also often do collabs, such as with Maplestory and Omori. My favorite drinks have been: Ceylon Milk Tea (0-25% sweetness) and Sunright Fruit Tea (0-25% sweetness). For the frosty drinks, the less sweet you get, the less fluffy the ice will be (it's just science). Sweetness preferences vary per customer. Definitely a returning customer!

One of my top favorite boba spots! They have multiple locations all across LA, OC and IE. Each location I've been to has been consistent with their drinks. I always get the oolong milk tea and add crème brûlée and grass jelly, shake it 17 times as they suggest and it always taste so good! Also got their thai tea and sad to say that it was just mid. I like that they have two kiosk for you to browse the menu and check out. The drinks came out pretty quick as well. Good amount of seats and tables to enjoy your drink with family/friends!

It's a solid Sunright and the location is convenient especially if you want a sweet treat beverage after dining at Diamond Jamboree. With that in mind, know that it does get busy here! I ordered online for pick up via Toast Tab. I got the Chocolate Oreo Brulee at 75% sweetness, less ice, and with fresh milk (recommended). Nice chocolate taste to it and perfect dessert leaning drink. Brulee was smeared all over the inside of the cup, so make sure to shake thoroughly and scrape off what you can. Not bad.

honestly sunright is now my go to boba place. i get the ceylon milk tea, 75% sugar, light ice with boba. hits every time! *cheffs kiss*
