A sweet threat. The cafe is more on the expensive side. The desserts are very good and big.

BEWARE ALLERGEN-PRONE / VEGAN VISITORS:
Two different visits here (once last year) and both parties I was with ended with allergic reactions (to a mochi dish and to the vegan bingsu), despite self-declaring allergies, asking the staff several times about ingredients. The first time was an immediate reaction, which the manager accused our party of lying about and fought us to strike from the tab. It’s likely your vegan items may NOT actually be vegan, which has potentially deadly consequences for dairy allergic customers like my sister.
Do better! Educate your staff about the difference between non-dairy creamer (which contains dairy), lactose-free creamer, and truly “vegan” ingredients. If this is caused by trace allergens, be more careful (or don’t claim you can serve your customers with allergies).
Dietary restrictions: Vegan items have trace dairy allergens, exert extreme caution

The staff was very friendly, and the Thai tea crepe cake was delicious. I would lick the plate clean if I were not in public. Would highly recommend

Tried the young coconut pandan crepe cake. Excellent flavor. The coconut cream tastes very fresh, and the pandan is fragant. The blueberry on top is a nice touch, which goes well with the cake and cream. Definitely recommend this cake. The space is nice and cozy, given a little small. Overall a nice experience

Mouthwatering desserts! I had no idea this place existed until our friends invited us for a night out. The mango sticky rice was absolutely delicious—I highly recommend it!

The Mango sticky rice was pretty and delicious 😋.. the matcha layered cake was very yummy as well. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate. The chairs were not the comfortable to. The waitress was very pleasant. It's a bit pricy however the Mango rice is large enough to share. I will come back as there were many other options that looked amazing..oh and if i had to say one thing that was a bit annoying they brought the matcha cake out immediately so I was left eating it alone while my son waited on his Mango rice so we ended up eating separately

Stayed for a week in SF and hands down this was the best dessert we've had the entire trip. The ube bingsu is amazing and not too sweet 💜 A little pricey but definitely worth the experience! My boyfriend doesn't even like ube but he loved the bingsu :')) it's a very unique taste with the cheese foam and biscoff!

Absolutely phenomenal! This dessert spot is a true hidden gem. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly baked goods fills the air, and the display of beautifully crafted desserts is a feast for the eyes. Every bite is a burst of flavor—whether it's the decadent chocolate lava cake, the silky smooth cheesecake, or the perfectly balanced fruit tarts. The attention to detail and the use of high-quality ingredients are evident in every creation. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making excellent recommendations based on your preferences. It's not just a dessert place; it's an experience. I can't wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings. Highly recommend to all dessert lovers!
