    At the corner of Jones and Turk in the heart of the TL, Da Hot Spot is a nice option for sandwiches and chicken shawarma. A bit pricey, but good quality and good-sized portions. I love how bright it is inside, it looks very fun and welcoming.

    Stopped here for an Americano before watching a musical at the GG theatre. Nice and bright spot in the TL. Good coffee and friendly service. Has a variety of food options that I'll try another time.

    One of my friends recommended me this place . She said her son love there tea and sandwiches. I love boba but there boba is a milk tea . I like the customer service here I told the I just wanted tea and they gave it to me. I tried there sandwiches with fries . I also had there smoothies really good. My favorite part is how clean this place is. They also accept ebt. I will be coming here often for my smoothies.

    The food was really good ! My family and i we're leaving the sf pride wondering what we were craving and we ran into Da Hot Spot. The service was really good got our huge order correct and came out fresh and BERRY BERRY GOOD.

    Great food good prices really high quality restaurant Irbyn and Arthur are great people and I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food in Sf. Gracias Tio

    Garlic fries, perfectly crunchy and great taste

    This is a gem of a spot. I've been here a few times know and their food is good but the customer service is amazing. Smiles all round, friendly staff. Great atmosphere Considering the neighborhood. Definitely my new lunch break spot. Garlic fries at 10/10. Pizza is a 7/10 I just with there was more sauce on the pizza. That is my ONLY criticism of this place. That should tell you how good it is.

    I definitely will not be getting food from this place. Very very overpriced especially being in the tenderloin. The food is very mediocre. You can make a better sandwich for a few people with their prices. My sandwich didn't even have American cheese like I asked for. They handle cash with the same dirty hands to prepare your food and my fries were freezing cold. Took almost 30 mins for a sandwich and no one else was in there.

    Cesar Salad (added avocado +$2) but where the hell is the avocado? All,  I see is a spoonful of guacamole.

    The sandwiches are good, not worth the price. You have to make sure you order it there or else they mess up your order if you call.

There was a conference happening nearby so the shop was pretty packed. There are two tablets to order from or you can order at the counter (if someone is available to help you). I really dislike the boba shops that rely mostly on tablet ordering because if you're not familiar with their menu and stop by on a whim, like I did, you feel pressured to rush through the menu so you're not holding up the line. About halfway through scrolling the menu, I was bored with the vast majority of the options and a couple of the drinks I wanted were sold out. The only other one that sounded genuinely appealing and interesting was the pistachio cloud jasmine, which they at least had in stock. Despite the large crowd standing around waiting, my drink came in less than ten minutes. It had a good nutty flavor and was the perfect amount of sweetness, nothing cloying. But you had to mix the pistachio foam into the drink if you wanted it to permeate the entire thing, otherwise it was just sitting on top and the drink didn't have any other pistachio flavoring. It was a good drink, but I wouldn't go out of my way to find a Heytea to order it again. No problems with this particular location, the staff were friendly and the drink was made well, I'm just not impressed by Heytea generally speaking and don't really have much desire to return or to seek out other locations.

The young lady who has assisted my orders both days is so sweet and friendly. She prepared my drinks both days, she's amazing and so were our drinks. The store interior is not large yet spacious and clean. There is no where to enjoy outside in front of the store. There is a grassy/parking area nearby (2 min walk). From Civic Center Bart it is a 15-20 minute walk, depending on your pace. There is online ordering available as well as self service kiosks in store. Definitely worth a visit and revisit. I know I'll be back!

The line was long, waited about 10 minutes for the ordering system, because it's by machine now. Then waited another 15 minutes for the drinks. There were a bunch of teeny boppers in front of me ordering drinks (6-8ish), so it took a bit. I ordered a house milk tea with 25% sugar. Honestly it just tasted like ash. No creamy tasting like other boba places. Not sure what their house cream was but it wasn't creamy or rich in flavor. Big disappointment. My husband got the crème brulee milk tea and that tasted even worst. It just tasted like bitter burnt pudding. Some sweetness once you get pass the pudding. Not sure who made the drinks but it was not good. The boba however was nice and soft. Not sure if it's the day or the rush of hella orders, but I normally judge a boba place by their basic milk tea and that day it was not good. And maybe that's not what to order? Not sure. But willing to try again on another time.

I walked about 30 minutes and arrived too early as the store did not open until noon. I walked out to Geary Blvd. and there was a lot of construction as I explored the area. I returned with only 14 minutes left before opening. The lady opening the store was raising the blinds on the windows facing the street. She unlocked the door shortly after noon and directed me to the kiosk to order. I knew I wanted the peach oolong milk tea at 75% sweet with no ice. It had been quite windy on the walk. Because of a coconut allergy in the family I had to ask if the popular mango pomelo sago had any coconut. Unfortunately, it has coconut (milk or oil?). As soon as I heard coconut, it was a no go. I wasn't familiar with pomelo and the lady told me it was like grapefruit. I still wanted to order a mango drink and went instead with the mango smoothie also 75% sweet with less ice. The customer following me asked about alternative milks which they do have. I overheard that they have oat and almond milk. Both drinks were excellent. The milk tea was not too sweet and I appreciated the peach bits in the drink. The mango smoothie was really creamy.

The milk tea was good, not too much creamer and all around classic taste including the tea. Boba texture was perfect and didn't stick together.

It took a while to get our drinks even though it didn't seem busy, but at least when our drinks were ready, the employee served them graciously.

The lights outside really set for such a cute twilight mood and though that wasn't the main point of their shop, it was a cute detail. You order off an ipad and wait for your order, pretty typical of most shops nowadays. I remember there being a short line as well, so it seems they are a busy boba shop! The drinks themselves were delicious based on what I remember, I recall their boba being perfectly chewy and not soggy despite getting there so close to closing. The drinks were not heavily packed with sugar, just the perfect amount of tea, milk and sweetness. I'm not really in the area that often, but it's a boba shop that I'll remember forever!

The taste of the drink tastes very off-putting - it definitely does not taste like a jasmine green milk tea, but like a burnt tea with milk just added to it. My friends who are not that picky with boba tried it too and did not like it at all. We only took a few sips before tossing it.
