Vanilla and chocolate frozen yogurt
Sophia S.

Very good! It was so thick we almost didn't believe it was yogurt. Staff was very nice.

Zoe G.

This is my favorite guilt free sweet treat. Cute but small interior and well priced. I love how they blend your toppings into the yogurt so you get the perfect bite every time. My favorite combo is strawberry and pretzels but anything chocolate mint and or peanut butter is good too.

lone wolf, crunchy cereal
Sarah C.

ordered for pickup and everything was still nice and cold and creamy. I got the lone wolf ($6) as chocolate and the crunchy cereal ($6) as vanilla, and liked the chocolate a lot more than the vanilla. the chocolate was stretchy and creamy and tasted more like ice cream which was nice. the vanilla was obviously yogurt but it was also kind of bland and icier. I loved the mix-ins though, especially the crunchy ones

blueberry dream
Jen T.

Cutest most convenient little froyo + pizza joint on Divis! This is the goto spot for my friends and I for a late night sweet treat or post-pilates quick bite. Blueberry dream (9/10): looved the fresh, refreshing blueberry flavor and texture from the coconut flakes. Power cup - chocolate, almond butter, and banana (10/10): Sooo good and indulgent. It barely tastes like froyo. This absolutely hits if you're craving chocolate and a decadent sweet treat. The addition of almond butter lends a fudgey texture - think the chocolate cake from Matilda. The pizza here is also decent for the cheap price. It wasn't mind blowing and the crust wasn't as crispy as I'd like, but again, it was an entire pie for ten bucks. Service is always super fast and friendly. Will be coming back again and again!

matcha vanilla
Steph C.

SF summer calls for ice cream/froyo/something cold. The ice/snow place I frequent wasn't open today so I came here. Ordered a matcha vanilla and it didn't have any matcha flavor and the froyo was too icy for my preference with a sweet aftertaste from the vanilla base. There are two flavors that serve as base - vanilla and chocolate. Toppings and flavors are layered on top of that so no tastings as it's made to order. Recommend trying the bases though before ordering or ask staff what is popular. Not my jam but may be yours.

My friend recommended this spot for froyo after we had dinner nearby. She was specifically craving cookies and cream ice cream and ended up getting the monster cookie froyo with oreo and cookie dough blended in. The add-ins are blended into the froyo, giving it a nice texture and sweetness without being too sweet. I do think I'd prefer other froyo spots that are more tart as the non-fat frozen yogurt doesn't have much creaminess and tasted pretty icy. I opted to try the rice pudding with toasted coconut. This was good and really creamy but I thought some additional flavor would have boosted it to more than rice pudding you could get from any market.

Caly T.

Enjoyable sweet treat without the guilt! The froyo is light and icier texture than traditional froyo. I like that the two topping mix-in is customizable. I got the vanilla base with oreo and crunchy cereal mix-in. It was satisfying and tasted like a mcflurry!

Linda Y.

A solid froyo option for when you want a light sweet treat in NoPa. My favorites are the salty dog and peanut butter flavors (the one pictured below is strawberry shortcake). I agree with whoever below that the texture of this froyo is more icy than creamy, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. They usually aren't too busy, but this location doesn't really have seating so you'll need to take your froyo out for a little walk or hang outside.

Chocolate with brownie and strawberry
Ike S.

The fro-yo looks better than this pic! It was so good I started eating before I remembered camera eats first. I got the chocolate with brownie and strawberry. Would definitely come again but I would only recommend it if you enjoy the specific (healthyish) taste of probiotic fro-yo. The staff is lovely and it's in a beautiful area to walk around while you eat.

Dianna P.

Right next to the Emporium, it's a perfect stop for a sweet treat! The shop itself is a bit tiny with roughly 4 bar seats facing the window, so not quite a place to hang out and eat but nice to stop by and grab some frozen yogurt swirls and walk around. I actually wasn't sure what to expect with this concept-they have signature mixes that combine a few different popular flavors and what I wasn't clear on were whether these were toppings or layered or etc. So what you do get are those flavors all blended into a swirly frozen yogurt - and it works really well! My husband's blend had oreos and nutella blended in while mine had peanut butter and bananas blended in, both combinations were very yummt!

Gotta hand it to the swirl machine.
Jimmy C.

It's been awhile since I set my presence in the heart of Alamo Square. Several years ago, I had been to the café at the corner of Divisadero and McAllister for the first sip of kava, which was down-to-earth amazing. So this time, I go to many other places, which was not uncommon. This, I settled for a cup of matcha/vanilla soft serve. What's awesome about it was that every soft serve I ordered was absolutely probiotic! Compared to authentic Uji matcha green tea soft serve that's blended with milk and vanilla, this one's very light in color when swirled in one. Not bad when it tasted different in probiotic form. Love a knowledgeable guy who runs his business alone. I'm sure to visit the same nifty hole-in-the-wall for another soft serve instead of a full dish size pizza in a handheld box. (⁠^⁠^⁠)

THIN MINT
Maya R.

The thin mint is a 10000/10! This is by far my favorite spot for dessert when I want something quick. Their flavors are pretty customizable and they mix it right in front of you. The large is the perfect size for two people to split if you're already stuffed from dinner but want a sweet treat :).

Twice I ordered vanilla through Door Dash. Twice I get chocolate. I hate chocolate. How hard is it to make sure the order is correct?

Matcha Cafe Maiko

4.5(1.6k reviews)
0.7 miLower Pacific Heights, Japantown
$$

Ambiance: Matcha Cafe Maiko is one of a few tea shops…read morespecializing in Matcha flavored drinks and desserts in Japantown. There is no seating located in this particular cafe but plenty of outdoor seating directly outside. The general area can be pretty crowded due to the other store fronts within the mall so if you want a more relaxed matcha tea shop to do work or relax it would be better to order and then leave. Service: They have both a kiosk and a barista taking orders. Staff were friendly and working efficiently and quickly to fill the orders as they were being placed. Wait time: Generally depends on when you go since Japantown mall is a heavily toured area by locals and visitors to the Bay Area but I'd say roughly 10-15 minutes max from standing in line to receiving your drink. Food: The matcha ice cream has a deep matcha flavor with a nice concentration of powder which can be tasted in the soft serve. They also top the soft serve with a light dusting of matcha powder to further enhance the flavors. The cone was soft and light with a gentle sweetness that pairs really well against with the earthiness of the matcha.

Everything from Matcha Cafe Maiko is special. Ironically,…read morefor some mysterious reason, I don't actually like matcha, which feels like a personal failing every time I walk in. Luckily, their other tea offerings are just as good, so I never feel left out. The black sesame latte is a longtime favorite, but today I went with the hojicha frappe and it was excellent. It's not as creamy as, say, a Frappuccino, and the ice crystals are a little larger, but honestly that works in its favor because the roasted hojicha flavor comes through so much more clearly. Deep, toasty, and not overly sweet. Their sundaes are also ridiculously fun, loaded with all kinds of bouncy, chewy little goodies that make your dessert an activity rather than just a course.
