U :Dessert Story
3489 16th St, San Francisco, CA
Crema's Take
“This dessert-focused spot in San Francisco has built a devoted following around oversized, Instagram-worthy creations like their legendary bingsoo and honey toast that are practically meant for sharing. The playful presentation—think hot tea served in fun dispensers—and welcoming, spacious atmosphere make it equally appealing for a quick solo coffee run or lingering with friends, though adventurous eaters might want to ask about vegan options before committing. Reviews consistently praise the creative spirit here, though you'll want to come hungry since portions lean generous rather than delicate.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

We ordered the Thai Tea Lava Toast and it was really good but the portion size was huge. Very difficult for two people to finish! I would have preferred more fruit. OH Dessert caramelizes their bananas which I sorely missed. The bread was perfectly toasted and presentation was…
