    I happened to find XOX Truffles by looking on a map and saved it to bookmarks for a future trip. I happened to be in SF last week and literally stumbled upon the shop when walking to dinner one night! Needless to say, I was SO HAPPY. The man working, who I assume was the owner / chocolatier, was very kind and helpful. Myself and two friends got the 20 box and he gave us one piece for free. I got the mint, espresso, dark chocolate and coconut and all were super tasty. I want to go back! It's a very cute, homemade shop and I highly recommend checking it out!

    I walking around North Beach when I saw customers spilling out of this chocolate shop. Intrigued, I decided to join the line to see what the fuss was about. Even though it's called XOX Truffles, this small chocolatier offers hot drinks as well. Customers were buying them by the box, but I decided to pick a few to sample. 4X truffles ($1.50 each): +Dusted with bitter cocoa, the truffles had a crisp shell encasing a rich chocolate center. +Citron (lemon) and A l'Orange were bright and zesty. +Framboise (raspberry) was fruity and didn't taste like fake raspberry. -May not be good for gifts as these aren't your typical truffles: They're not colorful or perfectly shaped. -Earl Grey was very faint. Side notes: 1.) Free truffle w/coffee purchase 2.) Discount w/large purchases: For example, 18 pcs is $18.00, which comes out to $1.00/pc. 3.) Even though it's a small space, there were a couple stools indoors and a few tables outdoors. *Verdict: 4.5 stars rounded up to 5 d/t service. It was a one-man show and the owner was really nice. He greeted each customer, took the time to answer everyone's questions, and thanked each person as they left. As someone who likes bittersweet chocolate, I enjoyed these and would love to try the other flavors!

    Variety!!

    XOX Truffles in San Francisco is an absolute gem. The shop is run by a single chocolatier who does everything by hand, and you can taste the love and craftsmanship in every bite. The truffles are incredibly fresh, rich, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious--truly some of the best you'll ever try. What makes the place even more special is the chocolatier himself: he's unbelievably sweet, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what he does. It feels like you're exploring a whole new world of chocolate, and he doesn't just stop at truffles! He also makes easily some of the best hot chocolate I've tried in the Bay!! If you're in SF and love chocolate, don't miss this spot. A small business with a huge heart and unforgettable truffles!

    A Sweet Escape in North Beach Even though I am not a big chocolate fan, I have been a happy customer of XOX Truffles for years. I love their truffles and coffee. This small, sweet shop is one of my favorite places in North Beach, San Francisco. Jean-Marc Gorce, the owner and main truffle maker, is very friendly and takes great care of his customers. His love for chocolate began in his childhood. He and his brother Ludvic would always search their home for their mother's hidden sweets, sometimes even mischievously blaming each other when caught. This childhood passion led him to a lifelong dedication to creating fine and delicious truffles. At XOX Truffles, Jean-Marc combines his mother's classic recipe with his own unique flavors, creating various delights for everyone to enjoy. The truffles here are amazing. Each one is a perfect mix of rich chocolate and creative flavors, showing Jean-Marc's skill and love for his work. Whether you like classic flavors or want to try something new, XOX Truffles has over twenty different kinds to choose from. One of my personal favorites is the raspberry flavor. The coffee at XOX is also wonderful, making it a perfect place for a cozy afternoon. The friendly atmosphere and personal touch from the boss and his staff make every visit pleasant. I highly recommend XOX Truffles to anyone looking for a great chocolate experience in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood. Oh, by the way, with every coffee, you get your choice of a bonus truffle. So, what are you waiting for?!

    Absolutely delectable truffles - rich and creamy, not too sweet, with a wide selection of fun flavors (different infused alcohols, fruits, toffee); I got the cayenne and tequila - had a little kick, but not too spicy; will definitely be back

    Dangerous! My friend got me some of their truffles with a mix of flavors including mint, caramel, expresso, orange etc. it's just like a mystery box of different chocolate flavors. I couldn't stop eating

    This little boutique of a cafe/truffle spot is so cute and genuinely makes me happy, Jean Mark makes the truffles there himself and always seems to be all smiles when you drop by. My favorite truffle here is the red wine one, omg is it amazing and paired with a cappuccino, it's just heaven sent. I've also tried the champagne one and it has more of a sweeter taste whereas the red wine has a deep richness that is hard to match. I plan to try each one one day and rule them all. Coffee prices are wonderful and the truffles are surprisingly affordable and lovely, I would definitely recommend taking a stroll here and enjoying your little chocolates in the park nearby and just dreaming a little dream because honestly how can you do anything else with a truffle and coffee at hand!?

    20 truffles and two capp!

    We were eating across the street (not the best), and saw the sign "seven greatest chocolates in America, XOX Truffles" so we had to try. We are so glad we did because all these different flavor truffles were each amazing. We got a capp and sat outside saying "yummmmm!!!" After every bite. This place is worth it!! The chocolatier is amazing. Buy this right now!

    I haven't seen the owner in 6 years. I've been coming here ever since I was a child. Still the best hot chocolate and truffle in the neighborhood. I ordered 3 today to go and had a great conversation with him. The receipe and the creamy taste brings back so many good memories when I used to go to school here especially during the cold weather. Keep up the great work, you're doing great! I'll definitely be back more often!

Sophie at this location is a gem. Yes, she's knowledgeable, but more than that, she's genuinely kind and personable in a way that's increasingly rare. There's an intangible warmth to her that turns a quick visit into a moment worth remembering. All around fantastic experience today for my first stop at this location. One suggestion: I really wish they would offer frozen fruit smoothies here -maybe a super simplified version of their café offerings. It would do incredibly well. There's a clear market gap in the area with tons of foot traffic, and it would put something tangible in customers' hands to sip on while they walk around, keeping the unique chocolate experience that's offered at Dandelion at the forefront of the mind. One day...

The first time I visited this location, they were not yet offering tastings, (and the gal behind the counter was not very friendly nor feel approachable). This visit however, they were super nice & friendly, and they had samples. We left with some chocolate bars which we knew exactly what they tasted like. Of course, if you can, visit their bigger location in the Mission, where they have food and beverages on the menu. But if you're in PacHeights area, stop in to taste and pick up some delicious chocolates.
