U :dessert Story

Had the volcano bingsu, lychee and strawberry cake and matcha lava cake . Bingsu shave ice has a different texture. The smokiness appearance of the nitrogen makes it look appealing. Taste wise, i wish there was a bit more cream or sweetness to it even though they give a side of condensed milk. Just felt a bit dry. However, both the lychee icecream and matcha lava cake is really nice and highly recommend.

U :Dessert Story in San Francisco is a true hidden gem, and my recent visit only deepened my admiration for their delectable cakes! After enjoying their treats in Berkeley, I couldn't resist trying out their SF location, and it lived up to the hype. We went for the Cake Sampler, offering three delightful flavors: Young Coconut Pandan Crepe Cake, Matcha Crepe Cake, and Thai Tea Crepe Cake. The Young Coconut Pandan Crepe Cake, boasting 18 layers of organic coconut pandan crepes, was a delicious blend of flavors, served with a divine homemade young coconut sauce. My personal favorite, the Thai Tea Crepe Cake, featured 18 layers of Thai tea-infused crepes with just the right sweetness. The homemade Thai tea sauce took it to the next level. And not to forget the Matcha Crepe Cake—18 layers of organic matcha-infused crepes, served with homemade matcha sauce and red bean paste—a dream for green tea enthusiasts. Every slice showcased meticulous detail and a perfect balance of flavors. The Thai Tea Crepe Cake, in particular, stood out with its impeccable sweetness.

Great dessert spot! A large variety of things, it's difficult to just choose one. Desserts can be enough for just one person but recommend sharing to be able to have a variety. Went as a party of 4 and 3 platters was the perfect amount. Service is quick and food is great. Dinning area is small, a bit crowded but it is also just a quick stop so can't complain. This was my second time going and my first time taking family members and they loved it as well! This a fancy dessert not sure if they offer just a kids scoop to make it kid friendly

After discovering a Thai dessert place the first night in SF, I am on a quest to try them all. This dessert shop compared to the other offers more variety and options, but the toast is drier (less buttery and fresh out of the oven) as U :Dessert offers less dipping sauce, whipped cream and fresh fruits. The ice cream is also slightly icier. The price is slightly higher than it’s competitors. I would come back for their cheesecakes variety. The lychee cheesecake is adorable.

Shaved ice is super fluffy and soft, pairs very well with the mango syrup and condensed milk, top tier shaved ice. The real mangos in the shaved ice are fresh, but as a result can be a bit raw depending on the season. Pandan sticky rice is also a great addition, but tastes less pandan-y than last year when I visited here.

i've heard about u:dessert story for years -- asian desserts/drinks including bingsu, toasts, and cakes. definitely pricey but seemingly good quality and nice ambience (they have servers). // mango sticky rice bingsu ($19) // price is steep ($20 for a small-ish bingsu) but can be shared between two people post-meal. got the mango sticky rice bingsu since it seemed popular among reviews. condensed milk flavored ice with mango on top, additional condensed milk, mango puree, and sticky rice on the side. the ice was soft and mildly sweet which i enjoyed. small amount of mangos but it was ripe. appreciated the extra condensed milk and mango puree. sticky rice was green with some nuts on top -- slight coconut flavor. i wish that the sticky rice was incorporated in the bingsu itself as it was served on the side and was very clumpy/stuck together. i ate some with a few bites of the bingsu but didn't really prefer it. the toast cakes looked good too so i would try the mango sticky rice toast if i came back. smaller shop but there was enough tables at 8pm - got full by 9pm though.

Its quite a gourmet place. We ordered a Bingsu. It was very well presented but unfortunately I personally did not like the shaved ice especially because it had no taste of its own and the only taste I could feel was that if nutella. But this is my personal choice. I will return again for sure to try cakes and toast varieties they serve.
