I got the banana matcha latte, which was made with real banana purée, so you get a little banana moment with each sip. It was creamy, lightly sweet, and such a fun twist on a matcha latte. Each drink was also decorated with a tiny dried flower, which is apparently all it takes to make my entire day. It was such a thoughtful little touch and made the whole drink feel extra special. Would definitely stop by again if I'm ever back in the area!

Amazing date night spot and open surprisingly late. :) They have a wide array of wines, beers, and signature cocktails. I got their hot apple cider and it was good! It wasn't strong [:(] but it was definitely delicious [:3]. The chairs built into the wall were a little uncomfy but they looked so chic. The bar projected an anime on the wall on the night that we went and it made for a great vibe. Service was a little slow (it seemed like it was only one person servicing the whole place) but they were friendly and attentive! Would 100% recommend checking the Social Study out if you're in the area!

Interesting cafe/bar atmosphere…read more I arrived around 4pm on a Wednesday and noticed some people working on laptops and a sign that said no laptops/working after 5. I guess daytime is for coffee/lattes and evening is more drinks and food. There is happy hour starting at 5pm, so I was a little too early to get the deal on that. I got a sanfransangria which tasted okay to me, not very sweet. Not a bad spot in the japantown/fillmore area

It gets very busy, and I'm not a fan of waiting in long lines or struggling to find a seat. For me, that takes away from the experience. So far, I've only tried two items. The pastry was nice, but the sesame coffee just didn't taste good. I actually love sesame, so that was disappointing. For now, I'm not particularly impressed, but I also don't feel like I've gotten a full sense of what the café has to offer yet. I'm planning to come back and try a few more items before making up my mind. So far, it's been about a 3.5 experience overall.

Loved this spot. The minute you step into the cafe you can tell it's going to be good…read more The sesame latte on ice had real sesame and delicious sesame flavor.

The place is called Stonemill Matcha so I should've got some matcha or latte, but I digress. I've…read moreheard this place has one of the best katsu sando around and as a lover of Katsu, I couldn't skip it. There's some good places in SF like Cafe Okawari. But Katsu is really becoming the new hype of the day for Japanese food, following the Sushi, Ramen, Japanese Curry, Katsu trend. So I came in with a critical view. I feel like Yoshoku in general may be next but I yet again digress. The box sandwich came in a cute little box. The inside was packed so I couldn't get a chance to fully appreciate the cafe, but the service was nice though the pay line may have moved slower than hoped. I'll say this. This is "the" best katsu sando in the bay. The katsu is crispy, but little on the softer side. But this hardness matches perfectly with the absolutely tender, soft, juicy pork wrapped inside. I'm looking at the menu again and it all makes sense. The pork has been in shio koji, making the meat ever so tender while adding the subtle but complicated marinated flavor. The cabbage is plenty, but not over packed to take away from the main Katsu flavor. What really perfects it for me, was not only the sweet and savory katsu sauce, but the mayo with dash of I think a karashi mustard. That slight tingle, the perfect kick gives a powerful awakening of flavor that really sets the it apart. This is art, an artisan. Culinary art is the refuge no raging rampant AI slop "art" can ever hope to touch. Until the day we get some cyborg implant to our brain into gustatory, olfactory functions. Even then, I don't think any tasteless tech bro are hopeless to create anything unique or beautiful.

The pork cutlet was perfectly crispy on the outside while staying juicy on the inside, and everything came together so well. For something sweet, the strawberry and cream milk bread sandwich was amazing too. It was light, fluffy, and not overly sweet, making it the perfect dessert after the savory. the hojicha cream latte was sooo good too! The hojicha flavor was rich and roasted, and the cream made it extra smooth without being too heavy. The service was friendly, and while the food took a little longer to come out, it was definitely worth the wait. Everything tasted freshly made, which I honestly prefer over getting food that's been sitting around. There is a little bit of seating inside, but since it's in San Francisco, parking was probably the hardest part. Overall, the food completely made up for the parking hassle. If you're in SF, Tadima is definitely worth checking out!

Sitting in their garden for brunch on a sunny-ish day (SF rarely gets hot-hot) is so good, & thankfully, so is the food. My $20 order of Chilaquiles is the most expensive item on the menu; proof that a moderately-priced, filling meal can still be found in this economy. Enjoyed my plate of two eggs, properly-crisp bacon, & small pile of sauced-up tortilla chips. I 86'ed refried beans, as I'm not a fan, but for those who partake, I imagine it bulks up the meal considerably. Food arriving to the table cold is my only complaint, but it wouldn't stop me from eating here again tomorrow.
