    El Gansito Milkshake

    always a great place to stop by for a treat!! everything i've had is delicious and comes in big portions. not much seating so definitely more of a grab and go kind of spot but they're always attentive and fast!

    I love Mexican street snacks and this place does not disappoint. Clean and spacious inside with a couple small spots for sitting, but it's mostly a takeout spot. Dolores park is only a couple blocks away! The staff help you with recommendations so it's less intimidating to try something new here. Esquites were delicious, and I also had my first ever Tostilocos. The Tostilocos were an explosion of flavors and textures, spicy, sweet, sour, and savory all in one. The sour and spicy flavors kind of dominated so it's best to share if you have a sensitive stomach. I've never had cueritos (pickled pork rinds) before but they are pretty mild and go well with the crunchy chips.

    MANGONADA WAS SO GOOODDD!! Asked for extra chamoy and tajin. They make their mango sorbet in house and it tastes so fresh. Highly recommend!!

    Was craving something refreshing and stumbled upon this gem in the Mission! The employees were extremely friendly and helped us figure out what to order. They make everything fresh and with the agua frescas at least, you can get any combination of fruits you want for only $4! They recommended mango/strawberry, so that's what I got. And it's exactly what I needed! Super refreshing. Affordable, tasty, and great service!

    Been on the hunt for good mangonada ever since moving to SF and so happy my search is finally over! I've never craved mangonada on a daily basis until coming here. Have yet to try their other goodies, which also look very tasty. *WAIT TIME- haven't had to wait in any lines on the Wednesday and Friday afternoon I've been here so far, but definitely no complaints about that! Seemed like many of their customers order pickup to-go *AMBIANCE- bright, cultural vibes! Clean and colorful inside with a super cool mural on the main wall. *QUALITY- great! Best mangonada imo so far... why? The mangoes have always tasted fresh and not too sour or hard to chew. *CUSTOMER SERVICE- great! In addition to being greeted upon entering, employee was very personable and made conversation with our group while making sure to acknowledge other customers waiting in line. *RESTROOM- n/a *OUTDOOR SEATING- n/a, heads up- no indoor seating either! More of just an in-and-out shop *PARKING- honestly very tough on this street :( metered parking, so we usually come on a Sunday so we can at least avoid paying for the meters.

    Well, it's always nice to find a new place that serves mangonada. Usually it's a specialty at a Mexican grocery store with an ice cream counter like Nieves Cinco de Mayo on 16th (review: http://bit.ly/2sQ5LZj), but this is more like a spacious version of a dessert stand iyou might find in a Mexico City neighborhood because they make all the popular confections like El Gazpacho and Las Fresas con Crema. They make their own bionico cream so they're serious here. There are also savory choices like El Chicharron Preparados (pork rinds) and Los Esquitos (corn with mayonnaise). You can even have Flamin' Hot Cheetos added to your corn. Fruit drinks (Aguas Fiestas), smoothies (Licuardos), and shaved ice (Raspados) complete the menu. I went for the Small $5.50 La Mangonada which was quite authentically made with their own homemade mango sorbet, cubes of fresh mango, tajin, chamoy sauce, lime juice , bits of tamarind candy, and of course, the obligatory tamarind straw (photo: http://bit.ly/2rZ5P8z). It was a delicious treat perfectly set in the Mission. Let's just say somebody like Pati Jinich or Rick Bayless would be happy here. Give it a try. DESSERT - 4 stars...quite a fine and true mangonada AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...bright and spacious, hopefully tables are on their way SERVICE - 4 stars...very courteous and solicitous of feedback TOTAL - 4 stars...authentic Mexican desserts in the Mission...who'd have guessed RELATED - Exploring the Mission?

    I tried a Mangonada for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. It's a very Instagramable/picturesque drink. As for the taste, I liked how there were quite a bit of mango chunks in the sorbet. My favorite part was the tamarind straw -- it added such a cute touch and made the drink a sweet and spicy experience. There's little benches around the store to sit while you wait for your order to be made. As for outdoor seating, there's a small table outside the store for customers. Also the cashier was super friendly which was nice!

    Ghe esquites and the mangoneada are alright but the BIONICO is trash almost $13 for one and you can only choose 2 fruits? In others places they give you all the fruits that come in one. I ordered strawberries and mango and both were very hard and sour they need better fruits . I do not recommended this place i recommend to go to the street vendors instead . Its way better and cheaper!

    I loved how the mangonada had the right amount of mangos and the scoop of blended mangos is amazing.

I absolutely love everything mango from here and their affogato is to die for! The best affogato I've ever had. Definitely try this place!

    Although they don't serve variations of buttercups, A Buttercup is one of the few dessert houses…read moreoffering Taiwanese-style treats like Bingsoo, Milk Bread Toast, and other Asian fusion creations. I'm always hunting for spots like this because I have a weakness for those over-the-top, Instagram-worthy desserts that look like diabetes in a dish. Like most places in this genre, A Buttercup is small, modern, and minimalist with limited seating. If you plan to go, aim for off-hours unless you enjoy waiting in line for sugar. The decor is cute and trendy, perfect for photos if that's part of your dessert ritual. As they say, "you eat with your eyes first," and when it comes to presentation, this place definitely gets an A+. The desserts look stunning and set high expectations. Unfortunately, that's where things started to crumble. It's like going to see your favorite artist live. You've watched the videos, memorized the songs, and paid for the experience. But instead of the electric performance you imagined, you get someone lip-syncing and barely connecting with the crowd. That was this place in dessert form. We ordered the Mango Bingsoo on our first visit, and when it arrived, we were surprised by how small the portion was. The guy next to us even looked over and said, "Whatever that is, I'm getting that next time." He shouldn't have. The Bingsoo looked great but was bland, and the "snow" was more chunky ice than soft shave. The Thai Tea Roti was also not what I expected. It came with Thai tea ice cream and sauce alongside a roti that was fried to a crunch. Interesting idea, just not the best execution. The sauce and ice cream needed a stronger Thai tea flavor to balance the crispy roti, and the flavors never quite came together. Overall, A Buttercup nails the aesthetics but misses the flavor. If you're here for the photos, you'll be happy. If you're here for the taste, you'll leave with a full camera roll and an unsatisfied sweet tooth.

We came for a factory tour, about an hour long. It was fascinating and educational to learn about the craft of chocolates from fruit to beans to the chocolate bar, and to get to chocolate taste along the way. Their work is inspiring-adding minimal ingredients to their chocolate bars so that the flavors of the cacao beans shine naturally from where they originate. After the tour, we tried the hojicha hot chocolate, the celebration cake, and the matcha cookie. For the hojicha hot chocolate, the tea flavor was subtle, but good chocolate. The celebration cake was what we expected-glad it wasn't overly sweet so that cocoa is more pronounced, but it also wasn't too rich; I felt the chocolate here in some sense lacked depth. The matcha cookie was my favorite-a cake texture matcha exterior encasing a denser brownie-like chocolate core - a delicious combo! Last thoughts to prep for the experience if you tour- 1.) Eat before you go on the tour-sampling chocolate means you do get caffeinated, and you'll likely purchase more chocolate (more caffeine!) after :) 2.) Included with the tour is a complimentary chocolate drink of choice at the end, in case you were pondering whether to buy the hot chocolate or not ;) 3.) Dandelion Chocolate products are pricey but quality. Paying the price feels like it's appreciation of their art. If you love chocolate, it's a wonderful place to visit at least once!

    Delicious, and this place blew my mind when I tried it out…read more First off, very surprised at all the flavors you can get and try, including horchata, Thai tea, and ube! To be honest, when I came here, I did not expect much. I typically am not the type to get snow or anything icy, since it is not the first thing that comes to my mind when it comes to dessert, but I am so glad I got to experience this. When I came on a Wednesday night, it was not too busy, and my friend and I were able to get our food within 10 minutes. The spot itself is pretty small, with not a lot of seating, but some limited spots outside. I got the black sesame with condensed milk, and my friend got the mexican hot chocolate. What makes this place stand out so much is the texture of the dessert, which was fluffy, soft, and melted in your mouth. Overall, I want to come here again and try the other flavors!

I loved this so much, it had such a fantastic texture of being creamy but also light and fluffy. Probably one of the best shaved snow texture I've had.

My favorite was still the cereal snow because I have more of a sweet tooth and the matcha and earl grey were less sweet. I would absolutely return to try more snow flavors! Service was really friendly and our 3 bowls were ready within a few minutes. Only one small bench inside and some outdoor seating.
