TaoTaoTea

This boba spot is top of my list for unique drinks! They have really unique creations such as persimmon fruit tea and chestnut milk tea. Their fruit teas is where they really shine.We ordered the sexy pink lychee and milk tea w/ soybean cheese foam. The sexy pink lychee is usually my go to. Super refreshing and the crystal boba was a nice touch. The milk tea w/ soybean cheese foam was also creamy and delicious, though the soybean flavor was not strong enough in my opinion. The cheese foam was just a little too airy. I like mine thicker, but that's just if I had to be picky.FYI their drinks run pretty sweet. I'd recommend to go down on the sweetness. The 25% was still quite sweet imo.

Cute little tea shop with claw machine and adorable chairs. Only enough space for one group of four max to sit inside, but it seems like this is more of a drop-by location than a sit down and chill location. Parking is easy--they share the plaza lot with the other stores. They have unique flavors, like Rose and Lime, which drew me to their menu. I think the flavors are niche, maybe a little too much so... I also ordered with the cashier instead of a kiosk and was unaware that the sweetness level was set to 50%. I wish I was asked or told it was already set at 50% for this drink! But I like that they offer student specials (like getting a $150 pass for one boba each day of the month). Cute, seems like a small hole-in-the-wall, family shop. Would come again!

It is a little shop tucks in a small strip mall. Location is convenient for me. The drinks are decent. Why 2 stars? There are no menu posted inside the shop except for 2 kiosks. However, if you are using cash or gift card, you have to order directly from the cashier. We ordered 2 drinks. One drink was priced same as the kiosk and the other one was 60 cents more than what was listed in the kiosk. When asked, they just said the kiosk price was lower. The kiosks are the only place prices are listed. Why should the price be different based on where you order? It is almost like a deceptive pricing. One won't know the price if we don't happen to ask for the receipt. They refused to give us back the price difference. It was not the 60cents, just the principle of thing. Just left a bad taste!

Taotaotea located right next to the o reilly is a small boba shop in saratoga. Owned by taiwanese aunties who seem to enjoy cutesy aesthetics and very homey and loving vibes. Aunties were really nice and helped us choose the popular drinksThey have a lot of deals especially for the prospect high schoolers across the street Overall some of their tea and boba is very unique but the tea wasn't as strong for some.I really enjoyed their fruit teas as it had a lot of flavor to it.Boba was also solid when fresh, but overall isn't the besttt boba in the bay but gets byWould come again if i need a quick boba fix in saratoga

Good selection of teas, anything from classic milk teas to fruity flavored drinks, and something different like home made chestnut milk tea which is what I ordered. It had little bits of roasted chestnuts that gave it a nice crunch. Call me crazy but I ordered 0% sugar and it still tasted good! The boba was sweetened with brown sugar so it was just enough sweetness for me. My nephew ordered the cloudy strawberry without cheese foam, a drink you can easily customize from their standalone screen. The drinks are about $6-$7 each, shockingly standard price these days. As you step inside Tao Tao has pink walls giving you a warm feeling in addition there are cute stuffy animals that you can purchase. I'll be back to try their other creative concoctions like sexy pink lychee

This review is based on a series of visits vs one. They have a wide variety of drinks - which I always enjoy. However, twice I've gone here to get a specific drink that's supposed to come with water chestnuts and/or mochi only to be told AFTERWARDS that they ran out of those ingredients and substituted it with boba (with the drinks already made/ did not ask before making this substitute). I would have liked a heads up and given an option for what replacement or alternative I would like. Outside of that i have no qualms with the drinks offered!

I got the Rose Blossom and it was not as sweet to my liking so more of a 4.5 out of 5 rating overall. I really liked my cousins drinks and they got a watermelon drink and a strawberry drink. Want to come back to try the lychee one though since I saw it was also a popular drink!! The drinks are really pretty too and they had cute Halloween themed cups!!

Over the years, I've stopped by a couple times while in the area. My favorite is the Milk Tea with Soybean Cheese Foam! Simple and creamy. You can taste the tea well and it's not overly milky. The Sexy Pink Lychee is also a fan favorite if you're looking for something more sweet and refreshing. Not a must-try boba shop, but this a good spot to check out if you need a boba fix near Westgate.

I always look forward to getting boba from this place. The drinks are smooth and refreshing, and the pearls have the perfect texture. Every time I come, the quality is consistent, and it never disappoints. It is such a nice little treat.
