Randomly found this shop, the crepes are really yummy, they are still warm and they are crispy. I was here for visiting, and got crepes from this shop everyday. Now I left the city, I have been missing this crepe shop everyday. Definitely will comeback.

Decent price. Note these are crisp, not necessarily a bad thing, but different from a standard crepe

My family and I have been coming here pre-Covid. We literally cannot get enough of Genki Crepes. The staff here is so nice and they make the best ICE CREAM filled crepes. I am from SoCal, so when I moved out here and found out a piece of “home” existed here in the Bay Area, I have never looked back. Haha.
I got the #15 smoked salmon crepe and a peach blended drink. I simply couldn’t have been happier with life, walking down the street eating my lil snack.

Thai TeaOverall Flavor:Presentation:Price: ($5 For 24oz With tapioca)I recently visited Genki Crepes and decided to try their Thai Tea with tapioca. As a fan of Thai tea, I was excited to indulge. However, my experience was rather disappointing.Firstly, the Thai Tea was excessively sweet. It felt as though someone had poured an overwhelming amount of sweetener into the tea mixture. I appreciate a certain level of sweetness, but this was beyond what I could handle. The overpowering sweetness masked the flavors of the tea, making it difficult to enjoy the actual tea that I had hoped for.Furthermore, the excessive sweetness also affected the overall balance of the tea.Since it was so sweet i tasted an overwhelming sweetness that was hard to appreciate. I found myself longing for a more nuanced and well-rounded flavor profile.While I appreciate Genki Crepes' effort to experiment with different flavors, the execution fell short in this case. Thai tea is known for its unique blend of tea, spices, and creaminess, but unfortunately, these characteristics were overshadowed by the excessive sweetness.On the positive side, The tea was appealing with an good amount of Tapioca ballsThe tea was about 5 bucks which is a pretty good deal in san francisco for a 24 oz tea.In conclusion, my experience with the Thai Tea at Genki Crepes was unsatisfying due to its extreme sweetness. I would have preferred a more balanced and authentic representation of Thai tea. If you're a fan of Thai tea and prefer a less sugary taste, I would recommend exploring other options on Genki Crepes' menu.

This place is a really cool combination of a creperie and a little Asian snack mart. The crepes and eggettes are really good and both the vanilla and melon flavors we purchased hit the spot after our dinner. The shop part of the building is well stocked with various Asian snacks including hello panda snacks and yakult drinks. I would definitely recommend for a quick snack or light meal.Vegetarian options: Most crepes don’t have any meatDietary restrictions: They’re are eggs and flour and milkParking: Limited street parking in residential and commercial streets nearbyKid-friendliness: They were friendly to my little brother
This place is COOL! Easy to eat dank crepes combined with a mini mart with so many cultural drinks, snacks, and more. Definitely wanna come back to explore and try more things… very unique spot!!

Great little shop with a store inside with specialty goods.The crepes with ice cream and whip cream are really good!Parking: Street parking with meters
Genki is a staple in the Richmond! Usually only come here for crepes, but the mini mart has a great collection of items for purchase.I usually get sweet crepes, but have recently been getting their savory ones. I actually really enjoyed the savory crepes. I got the ham, cheese (mozzarella), and lettuce crepe. The cheese is nice and gooey and the lettuce provides a nice freshness to offset the saltiness of the cheese and ham.I also love getting their sweet crepes as they always hit the spot. There's some seating inside, but also benches outside. Definitely a great spot to grab a quick meal or dessert.Street parking is most likely your only option. There is residential, but only if you're lucky.
Been coming here for 10 years! Love their crepes and they’re open late night which is awesome :) Not fast when they’re busy but you can hangout or grab some other snacks to take with you!

Genki crepe's is always popping which is a good sign that the dessert here is good. Rain or shine, there typically is a wait but it gives more time for you to browse the amazing store. From exotic flavor kitkats to cute chibi toys, there is an endless selection of items that are pretty interesting and not as common to find in the city.My go to item here is their cookies and cream ice cream crepe with Nutella and banana. The whipped cream here is so airy and delicate and just makes each bite delectable. The crunchiness of the crepe is a nice texture in contrast to the whipped cream. Definitely the go to spot to satisfy any sweet tooth cravings.

In LOVE with this place. Such a cute little store that has all my childhood favorites.The crepe itself was soooo good and very affordable. I got a banana and vanilla ice cream crepe with whipped cream and I was literally licking my fingers after. The crepe has the perfect amount of crunch and butteriness to it that makes you want more. They give great fruit portions and I felt like overall I got amazing bang for my buck.The food came out really quickly and they had seating where you could eat/wait. I know I'll be back here for sure!
