    Matcha adzuki sundae
    Catalina T.

    Came in on a Saturday night, all the benches were full of people so I figured it must be good. I got the matcha sundae with adzuki in a cup. The matcha was good, paired with the sweet adzuki (red bean) and a couple mochi balls it was decent. Not too sweet & not too bitter. If you plan on coming with friends (as I did) be mindful of the little space to sit. They had tables but they were laid up so no one could use them. Overall, good experience but wouldn't go outta my way to visit again.

    Maiko special with matcha-vanilla swirl
    Mel J.

    Maiko special with matcha-vanilla swirl: very good! We could taste matcha flavor in the soft serve. The vanilla swirl gave a bit of sweetness to the ice cream. The crunchy corn flakes were perfect. The adzuki beans at the bottom were perfectly paired with matcha flavor. They gave a lot of jelly pieces but I only got 1 piece of chestnut and 2 pieces of mochi balls.

    Great menu options, great customer service, easy to find parking, and best of all, great matcha! Not sure if I would get the maiko special again because I didn't like everything (chestnut & the jelly stuff) but I was very pleased with the quality of my dessert & matcha very nice atmosphere as well

    Haven't been here in awhile over 3yrs. Thought I'd give it another try. Stopped in for a strawberry matcha. It was good. Stopped in around 3ish & it was busy. Staff were ok. There's benches to sit but not a lot of seating. No tables. Just order and leave to enjoy your drink. Not a place to really sit and hang out.

    This location of Matcha Cafe Maiko does compare well to the other locations! My friend and I stopped by here on a weekday evening, and there were plenty of people who came by as we enjoyed our dessert within the cafe. I tried their vanilla and matcha soft serve. The matcha's deep and earthy flavor complemented the light and creamy vanilla, and the portion size was generous for a dessert. My friend got their Matcha Tea and commented on the strong taste that he loved of the matcha. Love this place and its numerous locations for a clean and refreshing dessert!

    Banana Matcha
    Alexandra G.

    My friend took me here on a Friday afternoon, and I'm so glad she shared one of her favorite matcha spots! She ordered her normal, matcha cheese foam. I got the banana matcha. Both drinks were absolutely delicious! You can really get the taste of the foam and the banana. It was so creamy and tasty. Not a place to sit down and drink though. They have benches to sit on while you wait for your order. But they have the chairs stacked on the tables, so it doesn't look very inviting.

    Worth it every time. Love the matcha, strawberry matcha swirl, and hojicha flavors. The waffle cone is also delish! Tried a couple of the drinks and wasn't feeling it. There is a parking lot but always difficult to find parking on busy weekends. There is also some indoor seating available.

    Came here a few times before and recently on a Friday night with friends after dinner. I love all their matcha options they have. We got the strawberry matcha sundae and it was so good. Service was pretty quick and plenty of parking in the front. But they didn't really have any seating options expect for the few benches they have inside. Luckily we were able to find a spot to sit. The store is a little small but over all has good matcha quality.

    Matcha Soft Serve
    Wendy F.

    Been coming here for years! Parking is difficult to come by in this plaza. The matcha itself is nice and creamy and I love getting the soft serve! Only downside is they don't let you sit inside. Other than that, service is quick and convenient.

    Thai tea banana swirl Soft Serve
    Celina V.

    I love matcha cafe maiko!!! It's soooo good!! Been back plenty of times. High quality matcha forsure. Their matcha lattes are very creamy and never watered down. I enjoy getting the matcha latte floats with their soft serve. One of my fav soft serves in sac, super creamy. Their cones are really good too, thin and crispy. Parking sucks when it's busy and there's not a lot of space to sit inside. More like a grab and go spot.

    The Banana Matcha Latte, my new fave here
    Lani N.

    Must come in at least once a month to try their icecream flavor of the month! My faves are: Banana Pandan Ube Lychee Service is quick, staff is always friendly. Fave orders are of course the soft serve cones, Boba sundae w/vanilla icecream, the Coffee Jelly drink with Honeycomb Toffee Milk and more! The menu is endless and hard to choose from. Don't forget to tip them!

    Thai tea
    Be J.

    Have been here a few times. The matcha ice cream is really good. Most recent trip also had the Thai tea ice cream. Super yummy. And a steamed matcha also really really good.

    WHY WE WENT HERE: - matcha sweet treat fix THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located in a plaza off Stockton Blvd and 65th St - very limited seating outside THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - seating inside is just for you to wait for your order; not necessarily to enjoy your sweet treat inside THE MENU: - latte (milk) - tea & sparkler - jelly drink - ice blended frappe - float - cheese foam WHAT WE ORDERED: - the golden Sho-Gun - hojicha latte - black sesame latte float THE TASTE: - the golden Sho-Gun - melts fast so you have to consume it just as fast; the gold leaf made it pretty but doesn't necessarily do anything with the test; overall very creamy - hojicha latte - if you like earthy taste, this is for you - black sesame latte float - my friend enjoyed hers CUSTOMER SERVICE: - fast

    Is the soft serve dairy based? Thanks!

    The soft serve is dairy based. It is made with whole milk!

    I feel like an idiot. I just ordered a drink with shiratama mochi (4 to be exact) for the first time. Do these mochi dissolve in the drink because I did not see any mochi in my drink?

    I don't think the mochi would've dissolved in the drink. The workers might've just forgotten to add them.

    When are you expected to reopen? It says February 28th; however, there are no updates on your IG. I'm just curious because I'm really looking forward to one being here! Thanks :)?

    It's open now!

I dont have photos of what I got for valentines day but remmeber them being ok but nothing mind-blowing Maybe its just the DOCO one that sucks but I went to give them another chance the day before mother's day and sorely regretted it. I got the matcha croissant ive been hearing about, the new blueberry cream croissant and the mango passionfruit entremet. The Croissants were a huge flop. Blueberry had barely enough filling inside-the cream itself was tasty but croissant was rough in texture and not flaky. Matcha was a bit more flaky and had more filling-I wouldn't say GENEROUS amount as some have said but maybe I just got a bad one. The cream was too subtle -it was more like vanilla with a hint of matcha. The entremet was the only one that didnt suck-it was delicious but again I wouldn't say anywhere in Sacramento has wowed me yet with their entremets compared to places in the bay except for the ones that ginger Elizabeth has had in the past-the flavor itself was on point, i will say the texture of the entremets have a majority layer of the jelly part-if they could perfect the variety of layers you're supposed to get in each bite I would be more impressed as thats the whole point of enjoying an entremet. Honestly I should have just gotten one pastry to try in one day as they are pricey-i paid 31 not including the tip fot my pastries, and in this economy one cannot waste that much on disappointing sweet treats lol

The moment you walk in, the retro 1950s diner ambience immediately transports you back to classic Americana dessert culture. They've apparently been serving Sacramento for over 37 years! - Hot Fudge Sundae -- made with Gunther's vanilla & chocolate ice cream, topped with whipped cream, pralines, and a candied cherry; beautifully presented with warm hot fudge drizzled all over - Lemon Raspberry Cake -- moist sponge cake layered with lemon, raspberry, and whipped cream; balanced sweetness with buttercream-coated sides The red booth seating and vintage Americana decor really complete the nostalgic vibe.

Rick's was the only place open late that had actual desserts. I mainly ate their cakes. They looked amazing. But I really did not enjoy them. Too dry. Just not good, compared to other bakeries in town. Over the years, Rick's remained a Sacramento staple, and when they opened up their new location in Midtown, the dessert community welcomed them back and embraced their sweet offerings, bigger space, and late night hours. I never went til just a couple weeks ago. Around 9pm on a Friday night I was craving banana cream pie and the husband wanted cherry pie. On Yelp search, Rick's came up as the top choice that was open. So we went and stood in the long line. The place was crowded and loud. Lively and busy vibe. Line moved at a good pace and the staff helping were nice but hurried. So we took our lil pies to go. We both liked our chosen pies. Now I know what to order if I go back to Rick's. Pies over cakes. Every time.

Café de Olla is a classic Mexican coffee that offers a well-balanced blend of coffee, cinnamon, and brown sugar, often served with heavy cream to give you a comforting and energizing boost. Traditionally, it's even served at funerals as families celebrate the passing of a loved one into a better life. It's meant to be warm, rich, and meaningful. However, the café's version was far from that. The counter staff overpromised their Café de Olla, but it tasted terrible. When I asked to switch to a mocha because of how bad the coffee was, their friendly smile quickly disappeared. They didn't offer a replacement or try to make it right. Instead, I had to pay again for the mocha just to finish the coffee break with my wife. Very disappointing experience. It was an easy decision not to come back. If you're going to sell poor-quality coffee, at least stand behind it and fix the problem instead of charging customers twice. Promotes well in facebook- HELL NO not again.
