Ended up happy with the snacks/food but a little disappointed with the drinks. The salted cheese cream matcha top was delicious - I loved the salty flavor of the cream. The matcha drink base on the other hand was a little too earthy for my liking. It was also grainy and didn't go down smooth. The strawberry matcha had more of a balanced profile and was more enjoyable to drink. The onigiris were delicious! I had the yuzu salmon and miso snow crab. Other people in my party had the shiso beef and shiso salmon onigiri, which they both thought were pretty good as well. All the onigiri were warm and freshly made. The strawberry and cream sandwich had a good flavor profile, sweeter than expected and the bread was more dense than normal japanese sandos but still a treat to eat. I'd give this place another try, maybe a different drink, but will definitely come back if in the area just for the snacks.
We were recommended to go here for their matcha teas and it was delicious! Luckily there it was in the afternoon and there wasn't the usual long line out the door for their sandwiches. Parking was a bit hard to find. The area is very busy and we had to drive around a bit before we were able to find an available spot. 2 hrs parking only.
Tadaima was a cool find! They're located in Inner Sunset in San Francisco. I grabbed the katsu pineapple sando and a cheesy matcha. The sando was really tasty. The combo of katsu, pineapple, coleslaw on milk bread, was a great combo. It's definitely on the pricey side. The matcha with the cheesy top is a must. It's made properly, and the cheesy top always takes the matcha to the next level. IYKYK. Ordering is done at the counter. The staff is okay-ish, and not overly friendly. There are places to sit, but a lot of people were ordering to go. I'll be back.
I ordered Matcha Latte Strawberry 5/5 Wow. One of the best matcha spots in the city. First time here and I really enjoyed the ambience. The matcha was so delicious. They also have a variety of grab n go snack options to choose from while you're in line. Service is very minimal but the staff were nice. Plenty of seating inside. Bathroom is nice and clean. Parking is tough. I only wish there was more because I finished my drink so fast lol I'll definitely come back and will probably order one of their sandwiches next time!
I've been hearing so much praise for Tadaima, and I finally had the chance to visit the Inner Sunset cafe with a friend for lunch + matcha. There was a short queue when we arrived, which bought us some time to browse the baskets of onigiri while we waited. Thinking alike, we both reached for the chicken curry onigiri since that flavor sounded unique and delicious. When I reached the front of the line, I ordered an iced matcha latte half sweet with oat milk with my chicken curry onigiri. Fortuitously, a tiny table opened up as soon as my friend and I checked out. Our drinks were prepared quickly, and we both really enjoyed our matcha lattes. The half sweetness was perfect and still allowed the flavor of the matcha to shine through. The chicken curry onigiri was delicious (they were freshly-made and still warm); although, due to the sauce, it was very messy (grab lots of napkins). With its location right across the street from GG Park, I'm sure I'll be back soon to try the other onigiri flavors while picking up a matcha latte.
There was a long line when my family and I came here. I learned about this place through TikTok. I guess they are very popular for their onigiris and their Japanese style cream sandwiches. For having such long line the employees were quick and swift. Although once you're in be forewarned that it does get hard to find seating. You may have to sit outside by this tree with a planter box which many use as a bench to sit and eat their foods. Inside there is a free water station. The Strawberry and Cream Sando was not bad, for a long time my family and I had anticipated trying this sandwich and then we finally got to try it here at Tadaima. My initial response was meh, I must say we didn't really what the hype was it is just a sweet fruit filled sandwich. The onigiri on the other hand were fun to eat a bit pricey, but I can see why they can price it at that price point because there isn't much of a competition there are only a few places where you can get onigiris. The onigiris were delicious and flavorful. It was cool to see all the different variety that one would be able to choose from. While in line you can even see the staff making them as well, it was such a sight to see.
I stopped in for a matcha and ended up getting a strawberry matcha with a cream top and the shiso salmon onigiri! I came on a weekday so there was no line. The matcha was great! Not too sweet and the matcha was good quality. The onigiri was tasty too. A good on the go snack!
I asked for light ice and was handed a strawberry matcha loaded with ice. I asked them to adjust it and even the revised order was 1/2 ice. I paid $4.50 for ice. Very disappointed.
Made a quick stop to this location it was my first time ever trying Tadaima and I had a great experience! Efficient and fast service while still being friendly. The matcha was really good ! I will definitely be coming back for more The katsu sandwich for me was to sweet. I prefer a more savory ratio but the portion was really good and it was cooked well. So I recommend for anyone who enjoys sweet/savory combo !
Such a cute Japanese café! Tadaima has a beautiful, minimalist interior with calming green tones and a cozy modern Japanese feel. We tried the Matcha with Strawberry Cream and Matcha with Pistachio Cream. Both were creamy, smooth, and really enjoyable. The strawberry cream adds a fruity sweetness that pairs surprisingly well with the earthy matcha, while the pistachio cream is richer and nuttier. I personally loved how distinct the two combinations tasted. They also have a nice selection of Japanese onigiri at the counter if you want something savory with your tea. Great little spot for anyone who loves matcha and wants to try something beyond a traditional matcha latte. Service was fast. I'd definitely come back!
Great onigiri. Good variety. Tasty. Good size. Service is fast and friendly. Seating is small and limited. But great place for quick snacks or take out. Clean and trendy space.
My friend and I had lunch in the area and decided to check out Tadaima for an after lunch drink! There was a line with about a half dozen people ahead of us, but it moved pretty fast. In less than 10 minutes, we were able to order our drinks. Service was efficient and friendly. It took another 10 minutes to get our drink order. The cafe had modern, simple Japanese wood interiors with soft ambient lighting, was well kept, and clean. *** OUR PICKS *** MATCHA LATTE WITH STRAWBERRY CREAM ~ this was my drink. I was told for sweetness level, the default is 3 pumps for sweetener. I chose 1 pump and it was the perfect sweetness for me. The strawberry cream reminded me of a strawberry milkshake. The matcha was also very good and flavorful. I felt it was rich and decadent for a matcha strawberry latte. But I enjoyed it! Well worth the wait! 5/5 BLACK SESAME CREAM LATTE ~ my friend ordered this drink and said it was perfect in flavor and sweetness. 5/5 I'd come back to try other flavors if I'm in the area again. Don't let the line discourage you from trying them because the line moves quickly! Highly recommend their drinks! It's a definite tasty treat!!
Tadaima is busting out all over, ain't it? It was only last year that I tried their original location on 20th St. Now there are four in the city. Given their focus on sandos and onigiri, I thought it was pretty good. Understand I'm putty for konbini sandos, which are those delectable sandwiches sold in Japanese convenience store chains. Tadaima tries to take the concept to the next level. The results are a bit mixed. This new location is right off the N-MUNI line, so it's easy to get to, especially if you're en route to Golden Gate Park. It was fairly busy with most customers under 30. I'm sure I was skewing the median age by my presence. I wasn't hungry enough to order Chicken Karaage, so I went with the $14 Potato & Egg Salad Sando (Photo 8). Not what I was expecting with the filling dominated by the kewpie mayo. It wasn't my preference with the potatoes and soft-boiled eggs cut in big chunks and the Japanese milk bread sliced on the thick side. I prefer the Egg Salad Sando just a few blocks away at Sakura on Irving. However, I liked the $12 Strawberry & Cream Sando because the execution was more straightforward (Photo 9). Again a less substantial whipped cream filling would've been more satisfying. FOOD - 3 stars...Japanese sandos that appear to be made for American tastes AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...bustling with limited seating, seems targeted to a more youthful customer base SERVICE - 4 stars...the staff works courteously TOTAL - 3 stars...sandos for bigger appetites CORRESPONDING REVIEWS Tadaima (Mission): https://yelp.to/nFpXODvrD7 Sakura (Irving); https://yelp.to/VWGfeHx9x3 RELATED - Exploring the Sunset? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: https://yelp.to/yLHfWhItw_
Brief Summary: - Interior is larger than the one in Mission. More chairs. I've been to the one in Mission a few times, and one day when I stepped of the MUNI and waited at the stoplight, I saw two strangers with riceballs in their hands. Quickly I remembered a faint memory about Tadaima branching out and when I looked this up on yelp, I saw that it was very close from this MUNI stop. Coincidentally, I was hungry, so we headed toward the Golden Gate park direction and found it. We arrived there a few minutes after noon struck, and there was no line. However, heading out there was a line at the door, so crowd amount appears to vary, not by whether it's near lunch time. In this visit I chose to order just a sandwich because for me the iconic dish here is the chicken fillet sandwich with its airy crispy crust. In this sandwich, wondering if it's seasonal or it's only offered in this branch, but it also contained greens (leeks? not sure) also tempura fried. This added an additional crunch that we enjoyed. read more
Tadaima was such a good pick me up! I dropped by after meeting up with a friend in the sunset, and decided to try Tadaima out. I ordered: Yuzu Salmon Onigiri, Miso Snow Crab Onigiri, and a Strawberry Cream Matcha Latte. All of these items were so delicious and the cream top was amazing. The matcha consistency and quality was very rich, and not overly watery. The onigiris do have a minimum purchase of 2, and were a bit pricy but still also very delicious to try. Service was very quick, and inside the shop was a bit tight/small so you do have to wait outside. It can get a bit cramped inside if it's busy in the mornings but I didn't mind at all and I came around a decent hour around 11AM. Definitely a good try and a great spot for a good matcha. read more
yummy matcha ! got less sweet & it was a little grassy/bitter :) - not a huge fan of sweet matchas! although I wish the strawberry cream had a little more flavor? chicken sando was filling - typically get full off fried foods really fast so I was only able to finish half! overall around $25 for both items there's 5-6 small round tables inside, it was pretty full on a Sunday around 1pm. I think it took around 10-15 mins to receive my sando, matcha came out really quickly tho! read more

Impromptu visit while in the area. Cute aesthetic. Short line of about 6 people that moved quickly. Friendly staff. Food items are made right in front so you can see them being prepared freshly. matcha latte w strawberry foam - good and distinct matcha flavor. Opted for normal sweetness (first time being asked for sweetness level at a matcha cafe). Drink was tasty and the strawberry foam also stood out distinctly. I think, personally, I'll go for less sweet next time though. read more

We had such a lovely experience at Tadaima! Location: Inner Sunset. Parking is always tough here but if you're willing to walk a few blocks, there's street parking to be found. Better yet, take public transportation! The food: High quality, Japanese comfort food. The two of us shared an unagi onigiri and a fish katsu sando. Both were delish! I was especially impressed with the fish sando: the bread had the yummy chewy texture of proper milk bread, and the fish was fresh and freshly fried, nice & warm. The drinks: We had an iced matcha latte with pistachio cream and a hot black sesame latte with double espresso shots. Both were yummy and we would order them again! Tadaima seems to quite popular! We came on a Wed lunch, and saw a constant influx of customers coming and going. While there wasn't a line on this weekday lunch, I suspect there would be lines on the weekends. We were able to snag a table to enjoy our food & drinks; and folks are generally pretty good about giving up their table after finishing. We look forward to our next visit! read more

Tadaima Inner Sunset has been very popular since their opening early 2026. During peak hours (weekends around noon), there's always a line out the door. The employees make the onigiri very quickly, and there's a front window you where you can see it. If you're getting a sando or a drink, wait might take a bit longer. Currently they're not accepting cash due to the recent break-ins. The chicken filet karage sando is pretty good. The white bread is so soft and fluffy, the chicken juicy and lightly breaded, and the shredded cabbage and house sauce provided plenty of moisture. All of their sandos are best eaten immediately so the bread doesn't get soggy. The onigiri (selection of eight, two of which are vegetarian) and spam & egg musubi are perfect for snacking on the go. The rice is seasoned well, but proportionally, there's a bit too much rice. 2-3 onigiri or musubi per person perfect amount of food. They range $3.50 to $8.50 each. I've tried their matcha latte with salted cheese cream, matcha latte with strawberry cream, and hojicha latte with salted cheese cream. All were delicious and refreshing. I recommend adding the salted cheese cream for extra flavor, sweetness, and light texture. Irving & 9th and the surrounding 2-3 block radius is always busy with bus/car/foot traffic. Best to park a little further away (if you're lucky) and walk. Golden Gate Park is half a block away, so Tadaima is perfect for lunch/snack in the park. read more
Finally tried the third Tadaima location, which ironically is the closest to me! My bestie and I came here to catch up over matcha and both got the pistachio matcha. I love pistachio flavored everything but hadn't tried the pistachio matcha at any of the locations yet. I found it to be perfectly balanced here, super creamy and nutty, but not too sweet. Think it's my fave so far out of the Tadaima lineup. The interior of this location felt the least chaotic out of the three - probably because it was a Monday - and we were able to find seating. The barista who helped us out was really nice and all around liked the vibe here. Trust when I say I was hungrily eyeing the variety of onigiris on display, but since we had a dinner resy right after, I saved my appetite, so I'll have to come back again to try those. read more

Been wanting to check out Tadaima for a while. During our visit, there was a line but it moved fairly quickly and we were also able to grab a table. Despite the line, our drinks were ready pretty fast too. Longest wait was for the Peaches & Cream sando - maybe about 15 minutes. Based on recommendations, we ordered the Strawberry cream and Pistachio Cream matchas. The matcha flavor came through, as well as the pistachio and Strawberry - good. The shiso salmon onigiri was still warm when we picked it up. Kiddo enjoyed it. The snow crab one was also good - crab on top and in the middle with a slight citrus flavor. I've also been wanting to try to fruit sandos for a while, but the ones I've seen never seemed appealing. They had a seasonal one, Peaches & Cream, and knew we had to give it a try. Must say, this was probably my fave. Soft milk bread and the cream was not too sweet. Those peaches, on the other hand, was so sweet and juicy. Yum! read more
The matcha latte was ok, it was kind of bland. The pistachio matcha latte tastes like 미숫가루 which I didn't mind. The strawberry cream matcha tasted really, really good. that's what I'd get if I came back here. I like how they don't use strawberry purée and it's strawberry cream so the strawberry matcha latte is super flavorful and you can really taste the flavor of the strawberry. The cafe is really small with limited seating but it seems like most people took their drinks to go. It's really loud inside so it's hard to chat inside. There's only one bathroom so the line for that was insanely long. I'd definitely come back here to try their sando & if you love strawberry matcha lattes, PLEASE try their strawberry cream one - you won't regret it !! read more
Stumbled upon this place during my most recent trip to sf! I went shortly after it opened and there was already a line forming. We tried the spam/egg musubi, shiso beef onigiri, and miso crab onigiri. All were great! My favorite was probably the beef onigiri, with the spam/egg second. My main critique of these was that the rice was a bit dry for what I prefer in onigiri. I also got a hot matcha latte which was very good. The matcha is nice and strong and I can tell how high of quality it is. The shop itself is very cute, with a small amount of indoor seating. I like that you can watch the staff preparing fresh onigiri, and love that they're wrapped to be easily eaten on the go too! Would recommend this place to all, and a great spot next to the park for a picnic! read more
I went here with a friend on a Saturday around 2:12pm since we wanted some onigiris. It looked like there was a long line, but the line went by fast. Anyways, when we saw the menu on the door, it seemed like they don't sell many drinks that isn't some type of matcha. I'm not a huge fan of matcha drinks, so I only got the onigiris, but they do sell sandwiches here too! We got the Miso Snow Crab and Tuna Salad onigiris. Both of them were good, but I felt like the Miso Snow Crab onigiri could've had more crab or something to add more flavor to it. The Tuna Salad was good too and we thought it was cool how there's corn on this onigiri since it helped add more flavor. I'd recommend this place if you're craving some onigiris! They have a good selection to choose from and it's not too big in size either. They also serve drinks here too, but it's mostly just a variety of matcha drinks. read more
Tadaima definitely lives up to the hype! I remember seeing it being popular since a few years ago and I always wanted to try but never got the chance. Coincidentally there was one near Golden Gate park and we were able to make it just on time before closing. The service is very fast, you order at the cashier and they bring out the sandos very fast. I got the tonkatsu with pineapple which was the best sando I've ever had! It is in the pricier side but it was worth every bite. Everything in the sando was made fresh, so the crunch of the tonkatsu really pulls everything together. And the combination with the fresh pineapple made it juicier! As for the matcha latte, you can definitely taste the quality of the matcha they use. It was creamy and strong enough for my liking! There were some spots inside so we were able to relax while eating the sando. Also restrooms as well. Can't wait to swing by next time I'm in SF! read more
Another TikTok/Reels spot checked off my list! Unlike most people, I didn't come for the matcha or sando, I came for the onigiri, and the selection immediately caught my attention. I really liked the simple, cozy aesthetic and the color scheme of the shop. It's pretty small with limited seating, so I'd recommend grabbing your food to go. There was a short line when I visited and it moved fast. The kitchen was efficient, though I have to say the cashier wasn't the friendliest. I played it safe and ordered the Tuna Mayo and Miso Snow Crab for my first visit, and both were so good. They were packed with filling, and the rice was soft, fluffy, and fresh. Easily some of the best onigiri I've had in the Bay. I'll definitely be back to try more flavors, and maybe next time I'll finally see what all the hype is about with their sando. read more

We came as a party of 7 and, despite a line out the door, it moved quickly and we didn't have to wait long. We tried the matcha with strawberry cream, the pineapple tonkatsu sando, and the unagi spam & egg musubi. Everything tasted great--the matcha strawberry was refreshing, the tonkatsu sando was flavorful, and the unagi musubi had a nice balance of sweet and savory flavors. The main reasons I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 are the portion sizes and value. The drinks had a bit too much ice, and some items felt pricey for what you get. For example, the unagi spam & egg musubi was $8.50, but I finished it in about three bites. It was closer to onigiri size than the larger musubi size I was expecting. Overall, the food quality was good and the service was efficient, but be prepared for smaller portions and higher prices. read more
I would def come back for the sandwich, super flavorful and yummy! The chicken karage was fried and crispy but still juicy and so much flavors. Overall my favorite thing that we purchased. As far as the matcha it was good but I def prefer real fruit for my strawberry matcha over strawberry cream. read more

Chicken --Clean sando, mildly sweet and crunchy, nicely presented-- boring one note flavors. Needed salt, pepper and some sorta hot sauce. Fish Katsu with Shiso-- Crunchy, fresh, delicious! A stand-out with flavor and freshness.. Potato Egg- grainy russet potato salad with a perfect gooey chilled egg in the center-- it was clean and well presented, but lacked flavor much like the chicken. Difficult to eat and needed salt, pepper and hot sauce, pickled anything. Iced black sesame latte---so good! I got 2 shots of espresso added and it was so delicious. Lightly sweet and creamy. Americano -- just normal. Hot, nothing special. I would go back to try the sweet strawberry sandos and maybe some masubi as they were making them fresh and seemed to go through them quickly. The Onigiri looked pretty delicious too, but we did not try any as were were sando focused. 3 sandwiches and 2 drinks = $65 dollors YIKES! I left a $12 tip in the jar as the staff was super sweet. The restaurant was clean. Small sitting area inside with help yourself chilled lemon water. Cute place, glad I tried it. read more
I would honestly give them a 3.5 and I didn't feel comfortable giving them a 3 so I increased it to a 4. I wanted to like Tadaima as much as other people like or love it, but it was something that I tried once and will probably not go back to just because I know other places with better tasting matcha and Japanese sandwiches. We pre-ordered online on a weekend and the wait was about 40-45 minutes. Luckily my husband and I found the timing perfect as we walked from the Richmond to Sunset to pass the time. When we grabbed our stuff, we managed to get a table to eat our sandwiches. Seating is very limited and it was surprisingly kind of loud for a matcha shop. The sandos were okay. I was surprised to find the strawberry and cream sandwich to be sweeter than other ones that I've had (ex. Bread n Chu). The strawberries tasted like they were soaked in a syrup or something before going into the sandwich. The chicken sandwich was good. Not bad, but nothing to be wowed about either. My matcha latte was good - that's all I can say. I overheard people outside saying this was the best matcha ever, but I've had better. I am glad to have supported them since they have been broken into twice this year. I unfortunately feel like I will go to my other go-to spots for matcha and sandwiches rather going back here. read more
One of my top matcha spots in SF so far! Came around 1:15 pm on a Saturday and there was a short line to order. Took about 10 mins to order and 5 mins to get our drinks. I hope to try their onigiri or sandos next time I'm back in SF since they looked delicious. -Matcha latte w/ strawberry cream (5/5): DELICIOUS!! Matcha is strong, rich and not bitter. The strawberry cream is perfectly sweet, not artificial tasting, and not didn't overpower the matcha. -Matcha latte w/ matcha cream (4.5/5): matcha on matcha is strong and rich, wasn't too sweet but got better when mixed in read more

My favorite matcha I've had in SF so far! Waited about 10 minutes to order on a Saturday around 1PM and waited another 5-10 mins for our drinks. Seating was full so we took it to go. Sadly wasn't hungry enough to try their sandos or onigiri but hopefully next time! I will definitely stop by on my next trip to SF :) Matcha latte with strawberry cream (5/5): matcha is STRONG and not bitter. The strawberry cream is fragrant, perfectly sweet and not overpowering the matcha Matcha latte with matcha cream (4.5/5): matcha on matcha had me buzzed lol, but it was super strong and rich. Not too sweet but a little sweeter once it mixed together read more
I love the strawberry cold foam matcha latte. ! It's delicious! 10/10 highly recommended The mixed fruit sando is a no go I immediately spit it out ha! Its awful! very disappointing however to each its own, its white bread and it has that sort of taste... try it but I wasn't a fan. Service was fast! Always a crowd its very popular. Parking is hard, try parking a few blocks away ! Wishing you the best of luck ! read more
This place is packed and for good reason! A line out the door indicated that this was a good place to try. You line up and are presented with 8 different types of onigiri. We got the salmon, crab, spam musubi, and the curry. All were great and what you would expect. The crab was nice and creamy and the curry was nicely done. The rice itself was fluffy, sticky, and uncrushed. We also got the pineapple tonkatsu sando which had red cabbage, pineapple, tonkatsu, and they called it pineapple sauce but kinda like sweet and sour and ketchup. Overall great because the pork was not dry and each element brought acid and crunch to the soft pillowy bread. The mixed fruit sando was good because it had fruit all the way to the back of it. Most places only put fruit for the presentation side. The cream was thick and sweet which played nicely with the sweet milk bread. As for the drinks, we got the strawberry matcha and the hojicha with cheese cream, both less sweet. The matcha comes from the brand "Matchaful" and is light and grassy in flavor. The hojicha was nice and earthy. The presentation of each dish was peak and the service was super fast and friendly. I'd come back here! It's a great place to grab food to go then have a short drive/ walk to the Golden Gate Park. Perfect for date food. read more
This cute and green location is kind of hard to miss when you walk on 9th. Their fruit sandwiches look great. I should have tried them but instead I got an onigiri and a black sesame drink. As you can imagine by the name it tastes like sesame which if you like, go for it. You will not be disappointed. The onigiri was decent. Better than a lot of the ones I have tried in the city and for the price definitely worth it. Just do not expect a Japanese level onigiri. They do have some seating available inside but it is limited and the weekends are extremely busy so do not expect a sit there. That said, great spot to stop by on your way in or out of the Golden Gate Park. Getting a refreshing drink or a bite to go. read more
I usually don't really like black sesame matchas that much tbh because the black sesame always overpowers the matcha, but for some reason I was craving one today. I don't think it's even on their menu, they only have a black sesame latte, but I asked the cashier if they could make it a matcha and she was so kind to say yes!! And this one I could actually taste the matcha because it was stronggg!! The jasmine tea with matcha cold foam was also solidd! I could taste both the jasmine and the matcha and the foam was not cheesy at all :) Bonus points for the line moving SO FAST?! Like it was a Sunday, line was out the door, I thought it would take at least 30-45 mins, but it only took us 15 mins to order AND get our drinks like dayamm. Parking is a nightmare though... read more
Cute little spot! The sandwiches are tasty - I had the tonkatsu w pineapple and enjoyed it! It was a very classic Japanese sandwich. My only feedback is that it's a bit pricey for what it is and the amount of food you get. The matcha latte was very refreshing! I enjoyed that. I went on a Sunday morning so it was busy - there was ~10min wait In line and another ~15min wait for the food Staff were all friendly! read more
