“I had the Jasmine Apple Green Tea and I thought it was tasty. The diced apples was a refreshing experience. My husband got the summer melon drink and didn’t quite enjoy it but the store was accommodating and let him exchange it for something else.
The atmosphere was minimalist and very cutesy.“

“One of the best boba I've ever had! I wish they had an Oddcha in Las Vegas....
The service was amazing! the baristas are so nice and were on point with my drink and it was delish (I got the Dragon Fruit Honey Lavender w.Boba) . And the ambiance was 10/10 they were playing my favorite music while I waited. Over all I had an amazing experience!“

“We stopped by this little boba tea café looking for something new. It’s a small spot with a hint of coziness, but not really our vibe.
The tea though… wow. We first got the smashed pineapple & passion fruit green tea with tapioca boba - that’s the kind of drink you come back for again and again. Super tasty! 25% sweetness was perfect - definitely don’t go higher - and with minimal ice, it was pure joy.
We actually came back an hour later to try the matcha with mango. For matcha lovers, it’s a real find. The mango tasted like perfectly ripe yellow mango, and since there’s a lot of matcha, 50% sweetness works better to balance the bitterness.
Overall, a great spot to grab a drink before a walk around Chinatown.“

“Big fan of the signature milk tea that has all of the toppings like red bean and jelly. Great texture, great tea flavor and not too sweet like some other milk teas I’ve had, even at regular sugar levels. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Chinatown- one of the better SF milk tea shops for sure“

“Why can’t all boba be like this. So flavorful, loaded with perfectly diced fresh fruit. Boba was absolutely perfectly cooked. In a city full of disappointing boba, with “fruit teas” that routinely contain little fresh fruit, this is an absolute standout. So glad I found it, and will definitely be back to try a mango smoothie!!“

“Spicy tuna roll: A+
Salmon toro: A+
Albacore: A+
Ya Shi Xiang boba tea: A+
Tried their spicy tuna once at a booth during a recent festival on Grant ave. Had to go try more at the restaurant after that.
Nice people, quick service. Very small restaurant with limited seating however, so if you are with a larger group of people you might want to get it to go.“

“We're so lucky to have so many great boba cafes here in San Francisco. And Black Sugar is one of them.
It's a small spot at the edge of the Tenderloin near Union Square. They have a few caffeine-free choices and I got their mango sago, which is a mango puree with grapefruit bits and coconut milk. Since it already had sago, I didn't add boba, which is good btw. Its has that qq bounce and is softly sweetened with brown sugar.
The mango was so refreshing! The coconut added a creamy texture and the grapefruit bits added a pop of tartness. The sago added another layer of texture that was both soft and chewy. I usually like to take my time with boba drinks, but this one was so good that I drank it pretty fast.
I usually order mine online for pick up. But service is pretty quick after ordering. Though I can imagine it's busier on weekends.
I've had several of their drinks, including their popular black sugar fresh milk, and they are all good. Definitely take a detour when you're in Union Square when the boba craving hits.“

“The sago is so good. The boba is really good as well. Hard to choose which boba to get with so many options. I would put this at the level of Asha Teahouse. I need to try the fruit tea still and will update this because I know Asha is known for its fruit tea. I love the location of this place and they are quick. They always fill the cup with a lot of boba, etc.“

“When I visited, the store had no seating and had closed their restrooms to customers, not sure if this is a usual thing. I ordered from an iPad, I liked that it had photos & an in-depth description of all the different tea options. My friend got the Oreo Matcha & I got the Lil’ Giraffe. It was pretty good, I was surprise they didn’t already come with the traditional boba ($0.75 additional charge). My friend’s was better, I didn’t taste much of the cake batter maybe due to my 75% sweetness instead of 100%? I wouldn’t recommend the Lil’ Giraffe, I’m sure there other options are better.“

“We love this local boba spot. The drinks are carefully crafted and delicious and the boba is fresh. My son loves the Silky Mango and the Silky Strawberry. Teaspoon catered his 10th birthday party and it was awesome. The kids loved it and Jennifer and the team were great to work with. So glad to have this gem at the Town Centre.“
“Delicious boba tea, and probably the best I've gotten while in San Francisco. They had so many different variations, bases, and flavors to choose from, so you were practically guaranteed exactly what you were looking for! This is also a women-owned and run establishment! So that's just another great reason you should go and support!“

“Loved the mango boba with red beans ❤️So delicious and comforting, what’s more is that I paid the price of 1 for 2 with their special discount that day . Too bad there’s no branch here in the L.A. area .
Dietary restrictions: With the customized ordering, you can opt to reduce the sugar in your boba drink, I only had 50% of the amount of sugar for my calorie limit. So that’s really great and my boba tasted so yummy , my hubby had one too?“

“Tiny but mighty boba store ⭐️! I got the mung bean latte with agar boba and grass jelly on a hot day and enjoyed it! I came in around 6:40pm and they had run out of regular boba by then so I got the agar boba, which are the translucent balls that are a bit smaller and harder. I believe if you come on a Thursday, you can size up for free. Service was friendly! Many interesting drink options, food options, and even cool blankets/merch. I would definitely come back and recommend to friends!“

“Stumbled in here after the farmers market looking for some caffeine and glad we did! The strawberry matcha was delicious and perfectly balanced and the service was great. It’s a little on the pricier side but they do oat milk for free, and I don’t mind paying more for a good quality matcha drink, as they can be so hit or miss. Thanks for a good Sunday experience Pixlcat!“

“I got the green refresher, SO soothing and delicious. Staff is really kind even on New Years Day busy all day! Thanks for the delicious food. I got that and a vegan masala bowl. Delicious and a lot of food for the price in that area. I love this spot. Highly recommend. No pics but whether you get vegan or meat/vegetarian you’re eating good here. 4 stars on atmosphere because it is nice and warm but somewhat small and basic. Still recommend. 🫶🏼. The food is also prepared healthily as they bake their fries. Quality ingredients and really good seasonings. Something for everyone. Go irl or on their site as they have specialty bowls etc that I didn’t see on DoorDash“

“Have come here before and will keep coming back- great selection of fruit teas, milk teas, smoothies, even soft serve and egg puff waffle. I was introduced to this place by friends who really like this boba spot too. It’s a small store inside but they process orders quickly and there’s 3 little screens to place your order on. No bathroom or inside seating, though there are 2 benches just outside.
I got the honey lemon with aloe, regular ice, 50% sugar, with agar (pictured) and it was a good option for a hot day when I wanted something light.“
“Shoutout to the team at special T! We order from you all the time for our company, and you never miss. The drinks are always on point—creamy milk teas, popping boba, the works. Everyone in the office has their favorite, and you nail every single one.
Plus, the prices are totally fair, which is awesome when we're ordering for a big group. Thanks for being so reliable and making such great drinks! You're the best!“

“Loved the crepes and service!
Crepes were soft and fluffy. We got #28 which had coffee icecream and pudding. Was a unique combo but both flavors paired well together.
The bear face was adorable (◍•ᴗ•◍) ʕ´•ᴥ•`ʔ“

“Milk tea itself is fine, regular milk tea is much better than Jasmine milk tea. However, I notice that they charge $0.25 if you ask for a bag at the counter, but if you ask for a bag after you got your drink, they would just give it to you, instead of needing to pay it?“

“I find this to be a consistently good tea drink place. If you order less sweet + less ice it will come out that way. They have a lot of flavor options, from basic to more adventurous. One thing I especially like about the sharetea is they have lychee chunks as an add-in, which I prefer to boba. Note: there is only one large size available, it is ideal for sharing. It's kind of too much for one person.“

“Sandwiches are a happy place. B&B popped up on my IG feed a few months back and I saved the post but lost it. Fast fwd to a coworker bringing a bulgogi Bahn mi to work.
I could have tried it then but I wanted my own full experience and to show support for this creation.
You ever had a Bahn Mi as big as a deli sandwich? You ever wanted bulgogi on your Bahn Mi?
When you first enter you’re welcomed with smiles and a good vibe. I would suggest pre ordering as there has to be a line at times. You’re hit with a menu board and tons of options both sandwiches and drinks.
I chose the Bulgogi Bahn Mi, sandwhich was huge! The beef was so tender and hefty. Guaranteed to fill you up . The pickled veggies were fresh and well flavored. The bread! Soft but has a light crunch.
Washed it all down with a Mango Green Tea Bobba. Not too sweet and also tasted fresh.
Top two Banh Mi spotting the city imo!“

“I’ve had my issues with this store, but ultimately, they’re good people. That was especially proven today. I made a super dumb mistake when ordering, and one of the employees Katie, recognize mistake, and help me fix it without having to jump through a bunch of hoops. She didn’t even have to fix it if she didn’t want to but she did. It was refreshing. It had been a long day and I could’ve used a break and that’s what she gave me.“

“Ordering is done via a pad - no cash! And : NO TOILET. That is had. And it is a dine in location. I thought that is a requirement. Also, traditional banh mi is $11.50 but if you order it, it has a $1 surcharge for a traditional banh mi. Makes no sense and seems like a scam. Place is nicely designed. Clean. Wait is a bit longer than in comparable places. Food is good. It won some BEST OF MARÍN awards. The announcement that your meal is ready is done HOA a DMV like loud announcement….“

“Yu's Cafe is a good spot for unique treats at very reasonable prices. It is located in Chinatown, beside a park. Their Coffee Cheese is absolutely delicious.
The warm red bean dessert is another winner, delicious whether you order it hot or cold. The cafe uses an efficient touch screen ordering service, but the friendly staff are always there to provide warm service. Great value, great flavor!“

“My favorite boba place in SF, been to this store 5+ years. The drinks here are consistently great. The lines can get long, which happens a lot, but I honestly don't mind the wait. My go-to favorites are the strawberry matcha latte and the classic milk tea with boba. You'll notice the service changes a bit since they have a ton of different part-timers, but the taste of the drinks is always solid. Totally recommend it!“

“10 stars!!!! The owners were so incredibly friendly, warm and welcoming, and the Hong Kong milk tea was soothing and delicious. Prices are very reasonable (especially since the portion was very large for the drink size), and the taste felt clean and fresh. Highly recommend! Can’t wait to go back again!“

“Banh Mi Zon in Mili Valley is an absolute gem! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared, from the crispy, perfectly baked banh mi to the refreshing drinks. The bread is outstanding — freshly baked, perfectly crunchy on the outside, and soft on the inside.
The fillings are always fresh, generous, and packed with flavor. The blend of savory meats, rich paté, fresh cilantro, and the perfectly tangy pickled carrots and daikon creates a symphony of textures and tastes that is impossible to beat. It’s a fantastic value for the quality and size you get.
Beyond the food, the staff is always quick, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Whether you're grabbing lunch to go or stopping in for a quick bite, the experience is always top-notch. If you haven't been, you're truly missing out. Get there immediately!“
