Reviews for Ding Tea in Hilo, HI
I got a mango milk tea with golden boba. It was disgusting, it tasted like a fridge, no mango flavor at all just tasted not... fresh and stale. The interior was kinda cute but lots of storage boxes and very stuffy, no ac Read more
Nice place to enjoy a boba/milk tea - so many cold beverage selections with Hoang and Vai keeping a nice place look first class... with a bounty of selections in sweetness and iciness the customer suggests… thanks for three years of providing a fun andenjoyable location and experience for family, friends, and solo acts!! ~Coach Dan and Family PS - Lychee Milk Tea a secretlygreat option!

Milk and Thai teas are my go-to drinks at any boba place, and I pretty much base it on that, but if they have avocado or mango... smoothies I’ll need another visit to really be sure if they’re my jam or not. Monster Boba 5 stars, Thai Tea, maybe a 3, butthey have so many flavors, I’m sure I’ll be back. Sweet family run business, and friendly service, 5 stars. Thank you! Read more
My wife got the Monster boba and it was the bomb! It made us happy just going inside. My daughter, who doesn't really like boba... that much kept asking to take tiny sips! ???? The person at the counter was so nice and friendly, and the hardest thing wasdeciding what to pick! I definitely recommend this place any time you pass through Hilo. ???? Read more
Fresh & soft boba! Delicious Peach Tea - a rare find. A very nice family run business! Much aloha.
I love this place! The tea is legit and everyone there is nice. We were worried we wouldn't be able to find a good boba place in... Hilo but I could come here again and again. The menu is large with lots of options It's great so far I've tried the oolong milktea, brown sugar milk tea, Hokkaido milk tea, monster boba, Korean coffee with milk tea under and the Korean coffee with themonster boba under it. Its great! I plan to come here a few more times before I leave. For sure a place you should try. Alsothere is a nice area to sit and enjoy your drink. Read more
My cousins in California said Ding Tea is the best boba joint so I decided to try the one here. I have no complaints. Tasty boba... tea. Nice little cafe with lots of art for taking pictures just like the other locations. Read more
UPDATE 12/8/22: After the owner’s kind message I decided to stop in again. I asked for their best fruit tea, and got a lychee... black tea w/pearls. The pearls were white this time(?) but well prepared and pleasantly sweet! Solid lychee flavor and a goodblack tea base. I have to say, I’m much more satisfied this time around, and I’ve raised my review to 4 stars accordingly! Ido think the tea itself could be stronger and a bit less saturated with the flavor of the syrups, but it was much better thistime! —original review: The atmosphere is lovely, but the passion fruit green tea left much to be desired. The pearls wereover-cooked, kind of mushy and flavorless…the jasmine tea itself was alright, but the passion fruit flavor tasted kind ofsynthetic. It wasn’t bad, you know, but I’ve had hundreds of bubble teas at this point in my life, and I wouldn’t chooseDing Tea over Teaspresso unless I was looking for a cafe-style place to do some work and sip some tea~ Overall, Ding Tea haslovely staff and a pleasant interior, but their bubble tea itself could use some improvement. I may come back and give anotherkind of tea a shot in the future, and I will edit my review accordingly~ Read more
