Wow, can't believe I haven't reviewed La Luna Cupcakes before! I've been going here since I started my job in FiDi back in 2018, and am so glad that they are still around. They specialize in their tres leches cupcakes - both regular / vanilla and chocolate variations. They also have "popular" flavors such as plain vanilla, chocolate, birthday cake/funfetti, and so much more. I love checking out their seasonal or special flavors and would get those for my team so we can try different cupcake flavors. Usually our faves are the tres leche ones as they are not too sweet. They are really good most of the time and has a nice level or moisture as well. We can eat multiple in one sitting as the light cream frosting layer doesn't feel as heavy and sugar concentrated as traditional frosting. Only downside is sometimes the tres leche ones may be a bit dry and other times a bit overly moist to a level where the liquid just drips, but it's most super delicious. Cute interior and friendly staff/owners. They also sell decor for cupcakes and candles as well.
La Luna Cupcakes is located on the first floor of the Crocker Galleria. Upon entrance, there are a few seats inside, a display case full of cupcakes, and decorations. It looks pretty welcoming despite the desolate location. Each cupcake is $4.50 and $4.75 for a gluten free cupcake. We got Passion Fruit, Duo Chocolate & Vanilla, Red Velvet, Cookies & Cream, Neapolitan, and Happy Birthday cupcake. The taste and texture of the cupcakes were average. Nothing stood out as the best cupcake, but the presentation of the cupcakes were nice.
Went to this cute little place in downtown San Francisco after having a large meal. Offerings were very interesting and tempting but had no way to eat more. So got just once chocolate tres leches cupcake and it was soooo good. Service was quick too. Will definitely visit again to try the different flavors of cup cakes.
I stumbled upon this place in search of some gluten free options for my coworker's birthday. I ordered a half dozen cupcakes and the cashier was super sweet and let me swap out one flavor because I wanted to try the ube cupcake after I saw it on display. The shop looks super cute and the decorations are adorable. They don't just sell cupcakes they sell cake pops too! The cupcake was super soft and moist and the frosting was delicious and not too sweet. We definitely have to come back to try the other flavors.
The cupcakes are amazing. Each cupcake has a filling that goes very well with the flavor. The cupcakes are not to sweet. Tres leches was my favorite along with passion fruit. Each cupcake was fresh and moist. The service was ok. He was friendly and helpful even though he charged my friend and I for two bags each when we only received one. The ambiance was very quiet and beautiful.
I treat myself to a weekly treat (usually on Wednesdays for a mid-week pick up), and I tend to opt for another dessert place but I wanted to try something else. These cupcakes remind me of the homemade cupcakes you make at home - they get the job done, it's nostalgic and it's cute. First, let's start with the "mall". It is dead, unfortunately because I am sure this place was once upon a time busy, because it is a great location. The packaging is simple yet perfect. I like that it actually holds the cupcakes in place because then the transportation is easier as well. I really liked the tres leches cupcake and if I need a pick me up, I'm happy to know this place is here.
Went for the Tres Leches because of the good reviews on yelp Walked 25 minutes here and the cupcakes were SUPER DRY !! Especially for a Tres Leches , Almost like a plain Vanilla cake with a whipped cream topping Service was definitely great. Cashier immediately said let me go and find out when I mentioned the problem He came back with a replacement and said maybe they had forgotten to inject that specific cupcake with the different milks The replacement was much better , excellent service Nice ambiance and super clean place
Came here to pick-up some cupcakes for a work event and it was so quick and convenient on the way. It's also located right near the Embarcadero BART station and on the California St cable car line--it seems like they used to be (or have another location) nearby in the FiDi north of Market. They're known for their Tres Leches cupcake, but have so many fun, unique, creative flavors, as well as some seasonal ones sometimes! I ordered 4 cupcakes: pumpkin, Ube/taro, tres leches, and cookies and Asteroid Cookies & Cream Cupcake. They were a hit! The interior is bright and airy with lots of windows. There is some seating inside with tables and bar seating at the windows--perfect for people-watching as many people walk by! Service was kind, friendly, fun, helpful, and knowledgeable, recommending what's popular and what they liked. Will be back for more!
We came here in early June and ordered 6 cupcakes. We were not impressed with the cupcakes, which we found to be sort of dry and bland. The cupcakes did not taste like the flavors advertised, and so we were just a bit disappointed with the cupcakes in general.
love all the creative flavors and combination!! neeed to go back and try more. cupcake I had was not too sweet (which was great as a personal preference) and nice little pick me up
One of my friends ordered a bunch of cupcakes and cake pops from La Luna to celebrate a friend's birthday. We had an assortment of flavors, including tres leches, chocolate tres leches, mocha bailey, vanilla, red velvet, and confetti/funfetti. I ended up having one of the tres leches cupcakes. I liked it a lot, the main body of the cupcake definitely did taste like tres leches, and the frosting was creamy and rich. Great for dairy lovers. The cake pops were also decent. I do wish it was a little more apparent which flavor was which and that they were labeled (just in case there was any variation in the flavors/ingredients and if anyone has allergies/dietary restrictions) since they came with an assortment of different designs, some of which had the small circular sprinkles coating the outside. If you have a sweet tooth and prefer a smaller portion size than a cake slice, the cake pops are a fun option. If you're carrying the cake pops around, be careful that they don't get banged up since the outside shell does get a bit crushed if it hits something.
Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the creative cupcake flavors, friendly service, and welcoming ambiance. The cute presentation and vegan and gluten-free options are also appreciated.

This has become one of my favorite cupcake shops. Moist, delicious cake, fluffy frosting and innovative flavors - Dulce de leche, passion fruit, half vanilla half chocolate (just to name a few). According to staff, the shop also offers cupcake wine pairings and cupcakes infused with whiskey etc for company parties. Highly recommend read more

Went to this cute little cupcake shop inside of the Crocker galleria mall, which you can find an entrance to on sutter or post street. The sutter entrance is closer to this little shop. The inside of the shop is so cute with a bunch of cupcake decorations. We ordered a Taro Cupcake and a Chocolate Tres leches cupcake. They were both very delicious and I preferred the Taro cupcake. It really tastes like Taro. I thought the chocolate tees leches cake would be a little more moist. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and were helped right after. You order at the counter that has the cupcakes on display. There were a handful of people there ordering cupcakes! read more
It's been so long to find many good businesses since the last day of the Farmer's Market in Crocker Galleria back in March 2020. I'm dying to see them one last time every Thursday. But alas, we have plenty of Farmer's Market places in many different areas already. Nothing like a broad stroll to see how Crocker Galleria is doing for all this time. At least one of the businesses were running, and La Luna Cupcakes is one that's been going strong. There weren't plenty of people coming to buy more cupcakes and sweet treats, especially with just one running the cupcake shop. Loved the holiday decorations in plain sight. Must support a local small business that's sweet enough to never disappoint, especially when there are vegan options. read more

These were quite possibly the best cupcakes I've ever had! Amazing flavor, moist texture and not overly sweet. 100/10 read more

THE CUPCAKE HERE IS SOOOOO GOOD. It has the perfect amount of sweetness. The cream reminds me of a cheesecake/cream cheese flavor. I came later on in the day so there was not a lot of cupcakes left. However they do have vegan cupcakes here too. read more

Went to La Luna cupcakes for a birthday celebration and the staff was so nice. Ordered a ton of flavors and paid a little extra to get the happy birthday topping on all the cupcakes. Sadly a few of the cupcakes were pretty dry but the ones that weren't were extremely good. I'm torn, I absolutely loved so many of the cupcakes, but you can't have dry cupcakes ever. I'll try them again in the near future to see if it was just an off day. read more

Normally, not a cupcake person, I normally wouldn't stop at this Ferry Farmers' Market stand on a Saturday in early July. The colors on display more than piqued my interest in drawing me there. Aside this stand, I saw a La Cocina sign, a likely sign of this business being a part of their program. As I stared at their table and variety of offerings, it wasn't difficult to make a decision since I live in a household of four. I bought one of their four packs and brought it home for the family. Since I didn't get home until lunchtime, no one had an appetite to eat them immediately so this became our dinner dessert. I tried their red velvet cupcake (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ZQLHMce3pPfXU7AbV7slWg&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) which was visually attractive as well as delicious. It was still fresh as the cake portion was still moist and soft. It was a bit difficult to eat without getting frosting on my nose, but, hey, third world problem, right?! My family did not offer any comments though our cupcakes didn't last the night. I have not seen them in recent weeks so it looks like their Crocker Galleria store is the best way to try their cupcakes now. Next time when I'm in that building, I'll take a peek and see if there's anything else that will tempt me. read more

Pretty good cupcakes! The Oreo one was really good and so was the one with the chocolate chip on top of it. I would say most of them were moist but some were dry :( Looks super cute otherwise. Recommend getting the red velvet, Oreo, and chocolate cupcakes. read more
Love this cute and hidden cupcake shop. They have good flavors and the prices are fair. Their cake pops are super cute and can be customized for different cleberations too. I love coming here for client events and birthday celebrations. My favorite flavors are chocolate with caramel, cookie and creams and chocolate chocolate. read more
Found La Luna today on Yelp after deciding to pick up a cupcake during lunch to give as a mini-present. The reviews appeared great, and the pictures appeared cute, so I decided to give it a try. It appears that lunchtime is a good time to stop by this place, as I was the only person there when I visited. They have an assortment of cupcakes and cake pops to choose from, all of which looked quite yummy. I wound up choosing the Asteroid Cookies & Cream since it was cute and I remembered my date liked chocolate. The pastry chef/cashier manning the front was very friendly and the cupcake comes in a nice container which holds it upright to prevent it tipping over. There is a $5 minimum charge here for credit cards so be prepared to bring cash if you are only buying 1 thing. Me and my date wound up splitting the cupcake, and it was quite delectable! The cupcake was very moist and fluffy, and the topping was not overly sweet like some other bakeries. Would definitely recommend coming here for any of your dessert needs! read more

La Luna is located on post street where you have to walk down the stores and sometimes fruit stands to get to it. I was greeted by a very jolly guy! He was quick to help and recommended which ones are good. I got the 6 mini for $2 each, and they were all sooo soo yummy and very moist! The quality of the cupcakes were very good and I definitely recommend them! Thanks Luna!!! read more

Overall: flavorful, detail oriented in both design and flavor, and supportive bakery team Customer service: Reliable and supportive, they responded to my online order within a business day. They called to double check each detail. When delivered, their service was prompt and the staff member was so kind. Cupcake Quality: Cupcakes tasted like they were just made a few hours ago- heavenly and moist! The decor was better than I expected. I ordered a very specific design and their detail was spot on. If you have a specific vision, they will make it happen! read more

Can you walk in an order/buy a cupcake or is it online/advance order only?
Walk in purchases are possible. Certain flavors sell out, so I suggest placing an order if one wants a particular flavor.
