I am addicted to their chestnut pudding coconut milk! Their restaurant is also always very clean and decorated very nicely. The cashiers are friendly too.

My grandfather and I went and ordered just two drinks the strawberry cloud and matcha Oreo cloud. We were the only people in the store and ended up having to wait for over 20 minutes for just two drinks that are honestly very overpriced compared to other locations and the taste isn’t even that good. The employees were very kind but it’s ridiculous having to wait so long for just those two things.

I liked my mango cloudtea. It had a good tinch of mango to it. The shop was clean and the staff were very professional as well.

I genuinely loved this place! Now I went here on the 20th but I WAS DRAWN TO WRITE A REVIEW! I tried all the 3 mousse cake available, mango, coconut, and strawberry. ALL TASTED GREAT! I feel like we wouldn’t have the true cherubic experience without trying the drinks. So I tried Grape CloudTea GREAT FOAM ON TOP, AND IS SOMETHING YOU SURLEY HAVEN’T TRIED BEFORE. Oh, and did I forget to mention, THEY HAVE ACTUAL GRAPES IN THERE ?. You’re not going to get this anywhere else. The Super Combo, ALSO VERY REFRESHING AND TASTY. So clearly I’m a fan. The aesthetic was great with paintings of people drinking boba. Finally, I finish off with the customer service, the employees were amazing people and great energy with a smile on their faces. You can tell they like their work! OVERALL GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Used to come here all the time, but the last five times I’ve been here I got served ice water that tastes like nothing. They seem to have changed the recipe or just using a fraction of the ingredients/topping. Too bad

Super cute interior, but price isn't worth what you get. This place is more on the higher scale. Got brown sugar milk with boba and it was really bland boba had no flavor drink overall just tasted like regular milk. Costing almost $7 for the smallest cup ever and to upgrade to a large was an extra $2!? Lol the owner needs to review their drinks and humble themselves with that price.

Tea is good. But don't expect too much on service. We got there first, they weren't open and asked us to wait 10 minutes. Ok thats fine. Another group comes in and they ask them to wait. No problem. Third group comes in and they are immediately helped. No acknowledgment to those of us already waiting. Just let the third group cut in line. Not ok. Plus the drink wasn't that great this time.

Not only aesthetically beautiful mousse items in the shape of fruit but the drinks were delicious! Very clean place and friendly staff. Plenty of parking and reasonable prices. Would like to come back and try a different drink next time I'm in the area.

This refreshing and airy feel while drinking your favorite boba milktea makes you travel to a different place. Good service and great drinks! I hope they add food soon. Good job to the owner/s.

"Cherubic Tea" is a small café offering beverages, desserts, & light fare in a clean, beautiful space. After seeing their desserts on Yelp, (& having this place "Bookmarked" for so long), I finally stopped by for the one thing I'd been dreaming about: mango mousse. Seeing the gorgeous mango mousse desserts on display, (designed & decorated to eerily look like an actual mango), I knew I was in for a treat. Almost too pretty to eat, once I cracked into the artfully crafted edible white chocolate shell, I was delighted with a fluffy sweet & tangy mango mouse & freshly sliced mango inside. Although the white chocolate shell was a bit too sweet for me, overall the dessert was a nice treat. The price-point here is higher compared to the mango mousse cake desserts that you can also find at other bakeries, but the beautiful mango mousse at "Cherubic Tea" is still worth a try...at least once. Overall, "Cherubic Tea" is a beautifully decorated, clean café. Although the service can be a bit lukewarm, the aesthetically pleasing & tasty desserts (especially the mango mousse) can sweeten your experience. I probably would not go out of my way to return, but if you just happen to be in the Irvine area & are looking to treat yourself to a light dessert that's as beautiful as it is delicious, stop by "Cherubic Tea" & try the mango mousse.
This place is super cute/aesthetic. I will agree with the other reviews that it is super pricey for boba and there is way too much boba to liquid ratio (maybe ask for half?) However, service was great and I was happy to sit and chill in there so 5 stars for ambience and knowing it would be pricier. I won't go here because it's my favorite boba in OC by any means but if I wanted to meet friends and sit/chit/chat with both ample seating inside and plenty of parking outside - Cherubic is it.

Went for a sticky rice yogurtea but I guess they don't have that only sticky rice yogurt it was good though I'm going to try something different next time I was a bit disappointed with the employees they didn't seem to be helpful and didn't recommend anything I would have bought more items if they would have hopefully next time it's a better experience but I will be back

Cherubic tea is a hidden gem for people that enjoy natural flavors, real fruit, and not overly sugary drinks! The interior of the shop is pleasantly aesthetic, and the service is good (sometimes can be slow but I don't mind because I go there to relax). The mango cloud tea is made of real mango, not like those powder drinks at other places. Avocado Dew is the star of the show, I'll recommend that one for your first time if you're an avocado fan! Oreo matcha smoothie is so delicious, who would think they matched so well? The coconut milk smoothie can be mild, but you can taste and enjoy the combination of coconut and roasted peanuts (another interesting combination) I even doordash often from this place, I want to try all their drinks!

Sorry but not good, the prices are high and not worth it in my opinion. I mostly came here for the cute desserts but when I got there they had absolutely none. That was the first disappointment. Service was fast and the staff was nice. However the drinks were probably the most mediocre boba drinks I've ever had. Mango cloud tea - they do not use fresh mango it's powdered mango! Not worth 6.50. my boyfriend said that this drink "tastes like fish gills." I don't know what they put in their drinks, but it did taste fishy/Metallic and was very off-putting. Maybe it was the water they used. But neither of us wanted to finished it. Super combo (fruit tea) - it was a lot better than the the mango cloud tea. Had good pineapple/passion fruit flavor.

We enjoy their fruit teas, especially the strawberry and watermelon cloud tea with the crystal boba. We tried the yogurt drink and the taste was off but they were nice enough to swap out the drink. Their price to add on toppings (like boba) is a lot higher than most places.
