    The fried intestines appetizers here are the only fried intestines I've ever liked. They're crispy…read moreon the outside but soft on the inside, and extremely snackable. I love the night market decor too, especially the outdoor buildings facade. It's such a fun treat to look at the signs and the fake shops while you wait for your food.

    I'm not sure how it managed to happen, given how long they've been around and how many times I've…read moreeaten around 3rd Ave, but I had no idea Dessert Republic even existed, let alone been here. Presumably, never walking down their block of the Main St. alley had a lot to do with it, but who knows how much longer it would've taken if not for my friends suggesting we come here for dinner. Which is kind of ironic, considering the name of this place! While nothing about the outside of Dessert Republic really stands out, the decor inside is great. It may not be all that flashy nor have much of an IG aesthetic, but I like how it has a Hong Kong/Chinatown alley sort of look to it. As for the menu, true to their name, there's no shortage of desserts to choose from, whether it be hot desserts, like glutinous rice balls, sweet tofu, or egg pudding, cold desserts, like mixed fruits, sago, or ice cream sundaes, egg puffs, and crepes. In addition, they also have a bunch of regular food options, from snacks and dim sum items, to rice plates, noodle soups, and even lomo saltado. -- (#A03) POPCORN CHICKEN Not terrible, but not popcorn chicken either. Rather, this felt more like the salt & pepper porkchop dishes I've had in the past - the batter was thick, the chicken was unmarinated, it was seasoned with just salt and pepper, and it was topped with cut peppers instead of crispy basil. -- (#S01) BRAISED BRISKET & WONTON NOODLE SOUP Overall, this was a mixed bag. On the plus side, the bowl was decently loaded, the wontons were plump, and it had chunks of beef tendon, which were tender. On the other, while the noodles were fine, the veggies were way overcooked and the beef was chewy. -- (#M08) SUPER STRAWBERRY - Strawberry Freeze, Aloe Jelly, and Strawberries Topped with Strawberry Ice Cream Undoubtedly, this had a lot of strawberry flavor to it. Even though the strawberry freeze didn't do a ton for me, especially as it melted, I liked how well the aloe jelly, strawberries, and ice cream complemented each other. As far as service goes, I've seen some folks mention running into issues, but I've actually found it to be entirely unremarkable, for better or worse. Each time I've been here, the workers haven't really gone beyond the basics (take orders, bring out dishes, take care of checks, etc.), but I never really expect anything more than that either. Still, they do seem to be relatively friendly and get orders out decently fast, which certainly counts for something. Since I've clearly only had a small handful of what their menu has to offer, there's the distinct possibility (probability?) that I haven't had the best of what Dessert Republic has to offer. However, based on what I've ordered and my friends' egg puffs and sweet tofu that I've tried (both were fine), the desserts here definitely seem to be the safer bet overall. Which is handy since they stay open so late, especially on Friday and Saturday nights (until 1am).

    So I like the concept of this place. I like the fact that it's soft serve only and that there are…read moreAsian flavors! The soft serve has a great texture and doesn't melt too easily. It's definitely more creamy than icy which is great! The flavors themselves are subtle but are the star of the show since the sweetness levels are very low. The matcha was very pure and fresh! And the chocolate was on the darker side, but still not too bitter or sweet. The black sesame (which I only sampled) was not flavorful enough for me.....but maybe with more tastes I would've learned to like it. The cones looked very thin and fragile so we didn't get one....but could've been good idk haha. The toppings (we got Bischoff) really tied the whole soft serve together and added the sweetness the soft serves needed! Overall, a cute soft serve shop with good service. The soft serve is on the less sweet and more subtle side, which is actually refreshing and keeps dessert light! Definitely come try this place if it sound like something you'd enjoy!

    This is a long overdue review from when we first visited shortly after they opened…read more Overall, this place was just okay for me. My husband enjoyed it more than I did. We sampled the strawberry and guava flavors, but both tasted a little off to us, so we ended up ordering the vanilla. The vanilla was good, but the flavor was very subtle. I also thought they were a bit skimpy with the toppings, especially considering the price. The shop itself is a little small, so it gets crowded quickly. There was a short line when we visited, but it didn't seem to be managed very efficiently. We had already received our ice cream and were ready to pay, but instead of checking us out, the staff continued helping the family of four ahead of us by handing out samples, taking their order, and completing their transaction first. Since there were two employees working, it would've made more sense to quickly ring us up first. Instead, we ended up waiting another 10 minutes just to pay. Also, how the owner responded to some of the negative reviews was kind of crazy. It's understandable that not every criticism is fair, but responding with profanity or getting overly defensive doesn't leave a great impression.

After Kuya Ods parked in a spot right by the front entrance, I walked in shortly after 9:35 PM to a fairly busy store. There were a few people seated inside and a couple of people in line to place their orders at the front counter. The wait wasn't long to get to the counter. I ordered two drinks for take-out; a CREAMY JASMINE topped with Almond Pudding and a CLASSIC THAI TEA with Grass Jelly topping. Both beverages were perfectly creamy and delicious. DOUBLE KUDOS to Teaspoon for offering Lactose-Free CREAM that tastes exactly like whole milk - you can't go wrong with that! Service was friendly and FAST - both milk tea drinks were made and ready to go in about five minutes, NICE! I was literally in and out in ten minutes with awesome drinks in hand. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Can Teaspoon open up a location in San Bruno, pretty please?
