    Cool atrium
    SY C.

    TL;DR: hidden spot for boba close to RH SF, with slow service and ok drinks I was looking for something sweet and there aren't a ton of options in the mission bay/dogpatch area so when I spotted this on the map, it seemed like a good time to give it a try. Located on a quiet street just down from RH SF, it's a tiny little spot in this cool restored factory building that is now home to some offices. The building had a really nice atrium and we saw a small family and their dog playing there to stay out of the rain. The menu at Little Sweet is pretty extensive like many boba places and I put in an order for two drinks. I ended up waiting almost 15 minutes for my drinks despite there being no one else in line and no other orders being placed while I was there. That is incredibly long for a boba spot and I was expecting to be in and out but this was so slow. The family I saw there were also waiting for their drinks and egg waffle so I think they're just slow overall. Drinks: Mango Yogurt Smoothie (0% sugar): admittedly this was a gamble on my part since I rarely get smoothies. It was supposed to have yakult in it but it had neither a strong, sweet mango flavor nor a strong yakult flavor. They probably used frozen mango but it was a little disappointing. There was possibly some yogurt powder too since the smoothie had a kind of chalky, powdery texture to it. They did give me a lot of smoothie though, it took me ages to finish this! Passion fruit green tea (25% less sugar, less ice): this has a strong tea flavor and was truly not that sweet which was nice. However, it has barely any passion fruit flavor except for a few pulpy seeds thrown in. Maybe I'll just order tea next time if I ever go back. I would rate the drinks 2.5 but rounded up to 3 because the portions were proportional to the price. But I wouldn't go back unless someone else asks me to go with them.

    I think Little Sweet is actually my favorite boba that I've tried in the bay!! I've only been once, but I really liked the iced strawberry hojicha latte with oat milk! I always get mine less sweet (25% if possible). This location is really tiny so it's more like a grab & go type spot, but I loved walking around the mission bay/dogpatch area with my boba!

    High Mountain Milk Tea

    This hidden gem is inside an office complex in Dogpatch! My favorite boba tea shop has an outpost with a huge indoor lobby to chill in. But come to Little Sweet for the boba drinks! I got one of my favorites High Mountain Milk Tea. Served cold, it was refreshing on this hot day!

    good location close to crane park. bit of a wait on a weekend but no complaints. milk tea is just sweet enough with less sugar less ice.

    Little Sweet is always really consistent, but I think this was my best experience so far. I ordered the Black Sugar Fresh Milk w/small boba, and it was SO GOOD! The ingredients tasted very fresh, and the pearls were soft and chewy! I ordered the Green Thai Milk Tea w/ regular pearls for my friend. It wasn't as good, as the pearls were hard, but the tea was tasty. The added bonus was street parking right outside the shop! Wasn't too busy on a Monday afternoon. The interior is small with a deconstructed sort of vibe. Not great for groups for or hanging out. However, there's direct access to a very large lobby/annex of the corporate offices that occupy the building. Very pretty! Service was quick and pleasant. Would come again!

    Egg Puff Waffle Original Flavor
    Crystal C.

    I visited this location on a Monday evening right before closing. This location is a bit hidden but there was ample street parking (metered). It's a small store front as part of a maybe an office building? There are a few stools inside if you do stay. I got an avocado smoothie with sago at 25% sweet and egg puffs. The smoothie was a not sweet and a solid breakfast the next morning. Despite keeping it in the fridge overnight, the sago did not harden and the smoothie was still creamy. The egg puffs were nothing spectacular, but this would probably be the best (and maybe only) place to get egg puffs in the area. The service was pretty quick for a drink and food item. There was one person ahead of me at the time, but otherwise it wasn't busy. The barista was really accommodating and patient. The egg puffs come with ice cream and he separated it into a cup so the egg puffs wouldn't get soggy.

    Waffle with ice cream!! Just DO IT!
    Helen C.

    I couldn't be boba happier about finding this place! I have been on the hunt for a new boba place in the area and Little Star has granted me that wish! We tried the White Gourd Tea, aka winter melon tea, with cheese foam at 50% sweetness. It was perfect and plenty sweet at 50%. No boba in the drink because we wanted to try their famous egg waffle with ice cream and that came with honey boba as a topping. It is not cheap at $12 but let me tell you, it's worth every bit and it's more than enough to share. And even if you don't share, you'll probably want to say you shared because it comes with a huge waffle and 2 scoops of ice cream! We got a scoop each of the vanilla and Oreo and it was perfect with the crispy but soft yummy waffles. The honey boba topping was perfect chewiness and sweetness! I can't wait to get my next drink with the boba. I do feel sad that the location is so tucked away. It's down the street from RH inside one of the large buildings as opposed to a standalone storefront. Once you know, you will for sure return, just like this happy bobalover! PS it's listed as Mission Bay but it's really on the border of Dogpatch in my opinion.

    Fresh Fruit Tea
    Lei H.

    This is newly opened so I came as part of a Yelp elite event. We get 1 free tea and one egg puff. I already love the little sweet in japantown so it was easy to give this place 5 stars. They also were super fast with the orders as I ordered two additional drinks on top of my free Yelp elite stuff. I didn't realize the egg puff would come with ice cream and some boba. So good. My fresh fruit tea drink was also delicious. Lastly my kids love their fresh milk black sugar drinks. Notes Parking can be harder. I just double parked right at that barrier in front of the door and that worked since they did my order fast. Also their phone line is spotty which they apologized for so just be aware. Otherwise staff is super nice. Will be back if we are in the neighborhood. Would love for them to open one in jackson square but then I will need to set aside like a $300 budget a month for my family. lol.

    Wintermelon with grass jelly and agar
    Kim Ann T.

    I walk past this location all the time when I'm walking my dog and finally decided to stop by. Overall, the drinks we got were good but a little too sweet which is the exact opposite of the name. I even ordered 50% sweet and it was too sweet. The toppings here are great though! Boba is the perfect chewy to soft texture, agar jelly aka crystal boba had a firm bite to it that I loved, and the grass jelly was PERFECT. The default for the milk teas here is non-dairy milk, and I'm not sure what type of milk/creamer they use but it's soooo creamy you definitely won't miss the dairy at all. You can also opt for oat milk, so I know the default is some other non-dairy milk. Overall, I would come back. I would just order 25% sweet next time.

    I am slightly reluctant giving this bakery five stars, but I think it is well deserved in the end…read more I'd feel bad giving it anything less for the sheer amount of effort and constant creativity the bakers put into their craft here to create such an expansive, eclectic, and novel menu. You think of a trendy San Francisco bakery and think croissants. Here you'll find tarts, danishes, bostocks, monkeybread, cakes, breads, buns, cookies, and pain suisse. All very technical. All executed to perfection. Can't imagine how early the bakers have to wake up to set up for the day. Flavor wise, some are definitely better than others, especially considering the cost. No amount of quality, care, and personal touch could make a croissant worth $10 in my opinion. The other pastries are all great. Some I'd be satisfied with only one bite of. Some I'd buy a dozen just for myself. If it includes a filling, know that it is bursting at the seams and will be messy to eat. Learned that I love bostocks, and the guava one here is worth a try! Be adventerous, have an open mind, and know that you're in for a treat! Quick service, clean asthetic, even combined with a more approachable feel with the open kitchen layout and handwritten menu. I can see why this bakery is so popular.

It was easy to order online and pick up, and the person behind the counter kindly helped me confirm the order's contents. 4/5 12 oz Matcha Latte with Almond Milk This is one of the better tasting matcha lattes from a bakery/cafe that isn't a standalone tea shop. I could taste the matcha powder, though it wasn't grassy. It's nice to see oat milk doesn't have its own surcharge, but it is pricy at $7.25 for 8 oz, and $8+ for 12 oz. 2/5 Kaya Toast The Kaya jam tasted strange to me, though the others sharing the meal said it was good. I couldn't define what exactly it was, maybe I couldn't handle the milkiness nor pandan overload. The bread was soft and fluffy, though. My friend said the kaya toast was comforting and reminiscent of home. 5/5 Kaya Bun This was a 2-in-1 dessert. The top is a chewy matcha cookie atop a cream bun. The pandan cream was nice and smooth, and less milky and strange than the kaya toast. I wasn't as impressed by the bun itself, it seemed a bit on the hard side (similar to chasiu bao). However, this is a dessert I may get again. 5/5 Shrimpwich The shrimp patty was bouncy with a brisk crunch. The veggies also added a nice tang to the burger. I think this was a crowd favorite within the brunch haul. 3.5/5 Chicken Cutlet Sandwich Tasting the chicken cutlet first, I found this to be somewhat close to the taste of Taiwanese cutlet. However, when combined with the pickled veggies, I found the sourness overpowered everything in this sandwich. The pickled veggies did have a nice crisp to them, though. 3/5 Mango Passionfruit Monkey Bread This was also sour (as expected), and on the drier side. I did have a small piece from the outside, so it may be more moist near the center. 2/5 Chocolate Soba-ko Cookie This was an odd cookie. Folks described it as "healthy tasting", and I personally think it tasted like a flourless cookie? I liked the crunch and toasty quality of the buckwheat, but the cookie fell apart and didn't have the stuck together hold you find in chewy cookies. 2/5 Sesame Cookie This seems to be Breadbelly's take on an Asian alfajore. The caramel was tasty, but I wasn't sure it went together well with the sesame, as both flavors tend to be overpowering. It also fell apart easily. There were a few other items that caught my eye (guava chocolate milk?!), so I might be back to check them out.

Progeny is focused on ethically sourced Colombian coffee, and you can really see their love for the country and product in every cup. The coffee is fragrant, slightly fruity, but not overly bright. It went wonderfully with the nutty, not-to-sweet black sesame mochi cake.
