    Strawberry matcha
    Arianna R.

    I had been wanting to try this matcha cafe for a while and I finally went! I ordered the strawberry matcha and it wasn't the greatest nor best marcha I've had. It was slightly watery and the strawberry flavor wasn't very strong and needed to be a bit more sweetened. The cafe is a bit small and location isn't tobut the staff was friendly. I'd still come back though to try their other drinks!

    Matcha latte w mochi + Vienna Matcha Latte

    Been meaning to try this spot! Love how more specialty matcha spots are coming to the city. Our orders: -Matcha Latte w Mochi, 50% sweet: $0.50 extra for hokkaido milk but it made it SO creamy. The matcha flavor was strong and balanced well with the milk option. Mochi could have been smoother; it was kind of grainy and very chunky -Vienna Matcha Latte, 25% sweet: lighter matcha flavor. very sweet even though we lowered the sweetness a lot. not much matcha flavor-- it was hidden behind the vanilla cream. A few spots to sit inside but it's more of a pick up and go spot. Next time would just order the regular matcha latte or try the strawberry matcha latte.

    Mango matcha latte with almond milk
    Stanley L.

    The matcha here is absolutely top notch. Today I was recommended mango matcha latte and I swapped to almond milk because I'm lactose intolerant. The options are whole, oat, almond, soy, Hokkaido milk. The mango bits at the bottom are very sweet and fresh. Highly recommend with my utmost respectful regards.

    What I ordered: Double Matcha Cream Latte They have a good selection of matcha drinks. We came on a Sunday afternoon and there was a bit of a wait. It's a small little shop and you order through a kiosk. At the time we were there, it was only one worker. She was great and handled all the drinks very well. Personally, I thought the drink itself was good but wasn't very strong in matcha. I wish it had more of that bitter/tea taste. It was very smooth and rich. Would I come again? Ehh maybe if I'm in the area, I wouldn't make the drive just to come here for matcha.

    Double Matcha Cream Latte

    I had lunch with my parents on Taraval and saw that there was a line for this place when we passed by. I remember seeing them recently open on social media, so I was excited to try this place for dessert. There is a kiosk to order from, but sadly they were sold out of their soft serves that day. We got our order in a few minutes, but I am sad about the customer service. There's no one to greet you when you enter, and the person who handed our drinks wasn't friendly when I said thank you. It's quite a small space too and we were one of two customers at the time. I was looking forward to trying the Double Matcha Cream Latte, but it mostly tasted like milk and wasn't a vibrant green after stirring.

    Cream Cheese Matcha Latte

    I came to Moriwa Matcha on a weekday afternoon and ordered at their self-service kiosk. There was a good selection of drinks and soft serve available. I tried their cream cheese matcha latte and enjoyed it overall. The matcha taste was not as strong as I had hoped, but it was smooth and earthy. The cream cheese foam did add a richness to it that made the drink feel more indulgen and dessert-like. Unique and satisfying matcha drink!

    Soft opening 12/2025

    Heard about this new matcha shop that took over YeYe Coconut Jelly Shop. Happened to be in the area for lunch and decided to stop by afterwards. Moriwa is still in its "soft opening" phase with limited options. Didn't get a chance to talk to anyone as ordering was completed through the kiosk. I opted for the strawberry matcha latte with 0% sugar and light ice. I enjoyed my drink because I'm sensitive to sweet drinks and many may have different opinions but the strawberry puree really brought just the right amount of sweetness for me. The matcha flavor could've been slightly stronger, but overall, no complaints. The shop isn't designed for lingering, the design is more of a "grab and go". Located in a residential area with other restaurants all along Taraval. Price points are competitive and reasonable. Looking forward to trying other drinks next time I'm in the area. #51/2025

    I stumbled upon this place when they first opened. I loveee matcha, so I had to check it out. There was no line. I ordered from a kiosk. The drinks came out in a timely manner and they looked nice and the matcha was very green. Taste wise as okay, I couldn't quite pinpoint what it was, maybe the matcha they use? It was off. They were very new so hopefully they worked out any kinks they had. Space inside was small, limited seatng. Parking: Street.

    Strawberry Matcha Latte ~ $6.25

    Moriwa Matcha is a new matcha drink shop on Taraval between 22nd and 21st Ave. They just opened December 2025 and are currently in their soft opening stage. The shop is tiny with very limited seating, so it's mainly to-go. They offer a variety of matcha lattes including the strawberry matcha latte, brown sugar matcha latte, plus a matcha frappucino. I came on a rainy Sunday and there was no line. You can either order at their kiosk or at the counter. I ordered a strawberry matcha latte with light ice (there is no option for no ice). The drink was just okay. I didn't taste a strong matcha flavor, and although the additional strawberry purée was good, for me, the overall the drink wasn't sweet enough (I didn't modify the sweetness level). My friend got the hot matcha latte, which she thought was okay. Service was okay. I had asked the worker some questions, but she had a hard time hearing me from behind the drink making counter. They do have a reward system if you enter a phone number, but she said I didn't enter it in time. There is no street parking infront of the shop so you would need to find parking on the side streets.

    Actually good matcha place with all this matcha hype popping up. Came early on a Saturday and no wait at all - quick to serve. Drinks lean a bit sweet so I'd go for 50-75% Grab and go location but great drinks!

    Stopped by to try the brown sugar matcha with boba I thought it was decent. The first time I tried to stab the straw in, the matcha overflowed. The barista helped me pour some out and reseal.

    Pretty good! Reminds me of True Matcha from Las Vegas. Definitely superior to the average matcha spot, the matcha is pretty good quality. The double matcha is the most matcha forward. I get my usual 25% sweetness here and it is barely sweet just how I like it. My favorite is to have the matcha latte with strawberry with the matcha cream.

    Strawberry matcha latte and Vienna matcha latte
    Maggie W.

    I came here with my friend to check out this new matcha spot, and it did not disappoint. I would highly recommend getting a lower sweetness level- the jam (depending on your order) and milk do a lot of heavy lifting! I loved my strawberry matcha, it had the right amount of fruit that went together very well with the rest of the drink after mixing. My friend enjoyed how creamy her Vienna matcha latte was, but did mention she preferred mine and would get it the next time she visited. There's limited seating inside, but Moriwa is close enough to Ocean Beach and to a few parks that it seems like a disservice to not take your drink to go and to explore the beautiful nature that SF has to offer.

    I got a matcha latte and all I tasted was oat milk.. I did ask for milk alternative which was nice, but to only taste milk... not good..

    Been meaning to try this place and so glad I did…read more Needed something strong and staff mentioned their Vietnamese coffees are it. Tried the pistachio cream Vietnamese coffee and it was good and strong. They even added some crushed pistachios on top. When I mixed in the cream I could taste the hint of nuttiness. The pistachio bits were also a nice add. Enjoyed the space and will come back to try the matcha. Note this is located closer to the Park Merced apartments rather than SF State.

    Had to re write my review for this place! At first, I was a little upset over the amount of ice…read morethat filled up the cup. Now I just order my drink with less ice :) My original favorite was the coconut matcha, but recently I tried their banana cream matcha and whoa. The banana cream tasted so fresh and was a good addition on top of the matcha, it easily became my new favorite. I appreciate how they used real banana for the cream instead of just banana flavored syrup. The crème brûlée matcha is really good too. The strawberry matcha wasn't my favorite only because the strawberry purée wasn't sweet enough, and the strawberries were too chunky to sip through the straw. Maybe I'll have to try it again This is a really cute cafe with a good selection of drinks to choose from. I definitely want to try more stuff on their menu, especially the Vietnamese coffees I've noticed how Vietnamese / matcha spots have become really popular recently in the bay. I like to think of this place as a hidden gem because of its location and their yummy drinks. It would be interesting to see if they were to do some seasonal or rotational flavors like egg coffee, pandan, ube, cookie butter etc, even though they already have a pretty solid menu to choose from! Just an idea because this cute little cafe that's tucked away has a lot of potential
