Tutem Tea

I have been waiting so long for a boba spot on this side of town! Totem Tea is attached to the Dim Sum restaurant next door so it's a great two for one spot. Focusing on the boba, they have a good selection of flavors and their tapioca boba is prepared well. I like getting the matcha or taro flavor. They are made to order and you can control your sweetness level which is great. They also have a good selection of flavors and that is always a bonus.The service is generally quick and enjoyable. The cafe side is also very nicely decorated and clean. It is a pretty standard boba spot but it's great you can hop over just a few steps and stay in for food at the connected dim sum restaurant.

While it certainly was a little pricey, the tapioca was made fresh which really gave it the fifth star. It is probably the most authentic Taiwanese bubble tea I've had in the area. The worker was extremely friendly and gave good recommendations. Had my drink within three minutes of ordering, very quick and no line. Parking is very easy lots of street parking. This store is connected to an overall restaurant, hoping to try it next time I visit!

I love that S&R dim sum has Tutem Tea adjacent to the restaurant. Located on Margaret Street across the Memorial Park, this is a wonderful addition to the many establishments in Riverside. Tutem Tea boba is usually good. I will say.. I've had Tutem Tea before (on Beach Blvd) and this is my first time getting boba at this location. This may be an off day for them. I ordered their Uji Matcha Tea with Cheese foam. The boba was over cooked. The matcha and cheese foam were delicious though. I just wish the boba wasn't so slimy! Overall an ok drink today. I will come back on a different day to see if the boba is better.

An acquaintance told me about this spot as I was looking for a grapefruit green tea. However when I got here they didn't have that on the menu, the item they have close is the half citrus and half lime tea however they were sold out already we ended up ordering the fruit tea and now we are IN LOVE with the fruit tea! If I am not careful this may become an addiction. They are attached to S & R dim sum so you can also order a drink to have with your meal! Come check them out!

My oldest daughter and I went there last night all the way to Riverside just to get a tea, from our house in Middleburg, and this place did not disappoint. I got the peach oblong tea with herbal jelly at the bottom. And she got the kiwi yakult. We both loved our teas. The place was clean, great service and we will be back.. Highly recommend this place if you want to try different boba teas like we do!

I'll admit, I wasn't expecting much when I walked into this boba spot, mainly because I have so many boba spots near where I live in Atlanta and the competition there is fierce. The staff person behind the cash register was nice and she also put our drinks together. It came out quickly and it tasted refreshing and not too sweet. (Normally I ask for less sweet drinks, but I forgot this time, but the drink was made perfectly, anyways). I got a small yari milk tea. They were out of regular tapioca so I got white boba instead. My husband got a rose milk tea with no ice. They forgot about the order detail and still put ice in the drink. We already walked away and didn't want to bother with getting the drink remade so we just dealt with the extra ice. Both drinks were great and tasted like their flavors should. The environment inside was quiet with ample seating and large tables, so one could even pop in there to get some work done or hang out for a bit. For me, it was a bit messy and could use a little upkeep/decluttering, but the experience inside went so smoothly I'd still give it 5 stars. Customer service and friendliness goes a long way!

Super fresh and fruity, I really enjoyed my tutem fruit tea. Would love to come back and try all the other flavors when I'm near by.Since it is located inside the dim sum restaurant, parking is a bit difficult to find especially on the weekend.

Always excellent and will to customize so dairy free is availableTHIS IS INSIDE THE DIM SUM RESTAURANT, SO THERE IS NO SIGN. We love Tutem's other location, so when we were in the Riverside area we had to try this spot. As always, the service team was helpful and let us even sample some other drinks. We went for our standard drinks - dairy free mango with house made bob and almandine milk. As always, it was perfect. Parking is on the street, although at lunch time it gets full. There is no sign out, so look for the picture of boba tea on the window since this location is on the dim sum restaurant next door. Service is stellar.

Tutem Tea no longer exists. I went into the Poke Bowl place and they had boba so I ordered a brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba at their recommendation. The tea itself was very tasty and sweet. Made me think of ice cream. The tapioca bobas were not great. They were a little too chewy and had hard pieces in the middle of each one. Kinda felt like a plastic-y texture. I don't really recommend going here for boba. Yelp needs to remove this location or update it to be part of Poke Bowl.

Drinks were okay, we had Uji Matcha and Mango Coconut Milk. Matcha was pretty decent (8/10 but ive definitely had better) and Mango coconut was a 5/10, an acquired taste i suppose. We may have gotten something else if they had not limited their menu, we chose two different options prior but were shut down because they said they don't make those. Ambiance in the connecting dim sum restaurant was pleasant. Service was par. Def the best part of our visit was the quality and reusable cups the drinks came in!!!!
