    I still like this spot but i do have to deduct a star due to the sizes of the cake slices. The ube basque cheesecake is significantly smaller than majority of their cakes and I think they should work on making it bigger especially if they're charging $12 a slice.

    Earl Grey Tea Mille Crepe Cake

    I've actually never been to Sweet Glory's storefront, but have enjoyed many of their crepe cakes from amazing people bringing them over for family events. Sweet Glory's cakes are beautiful, not too sweet, super tasty, and tastes as what it says. They have the standard crepe cake flavors, and some others such as Durian. I didn't think I'd enjoy Durian based on my experience with the actual fruit, but the cake itself was pretty tasty after getting over the scent. I loved their earl gray crepe cake. Nicely textured cream and perfect consistent thin crepes. Their matcha one was really good as well. Whenever someone brings a cake from Sweet Glory, I just instantly light up as I know it'll be so so goood. Not cheap, but it's a well built and tasty crepe cake, so don't expect that to be cheap. :)

    Amazingly good cafe with beautiful desserts! It's got lots of seating, with nice decorations and also an outdoor patio for enjoying outside. We had some capucinos and 2 slices of cakes plus a toast topped with some flavorful cream-like sweets (sorry, didn't order and don't remember the name) The pandan crepe and corn Basque cheesecake were delicious! The corn kernels in the cheesecake was def a must try experience! You just order at the counter and get a number and go find an empty table. self service water and utensils. Truly a worthwhile experince for a snack.

    Brief Summary: - New favorite place to eat mille crepe cake - Not so sweet, easy to eat - Beautiful and peaceful interior - Near the MUNI N line I was looking for a new cake place to try, so when I searched for one in San Francisco, this one appeared in the first page. It was near the districts I like to go, and because I haven't been there in a while, I thought it was a good opportunity to visit here. This cake shop is very close to one of the MUNI line stops if you take the N line. The store had a sign propped up with the list of the mille crepe cakes and some of the chiffon. The basque cheesecake selection were not one there, so I assume that these are new items. The interior of this shop is so cute. It's as if I walked in a quaint early spring environment. The initial plan was to buy the cakes to take home, but I was now interested to stay to have a drink before buying the cake. There were seats in the further end of the building, so we sat there, relaxed while drinking coffee. I ordered 3 different cakes of different flavors - earl grey mille crepe cake - pandan chiffon cake - tiramisu basque cheese cake If someone asked me which one I liked the most, I would take time deciding because I loved all of them. All of them were not so sweet and also easier to eat; even the basque cheesecake. I showed the basque cheesecake photo to my colleague, and they were surprised: 'it's almost like having 2 cakes in 1!' was the memorable response to it. I also loved the mille crepe cake. This one left a fun and colorful impression of crepe cakes. I got the earl grey and I loved how it was almost like drinking an earl grey tea at the same time. I tasted the bergamot oil from the tea. I also liked how the crepe cake was overall moist and juicy (I wonder if it's because I chose a tea themed crepe cake?) I love the chiffon cake, and this also topped with the bias of me loving pandan. I was also surprised that the cream area was not just cream but packed with coconut meat. It gave a nice chewy flavor in between the cushion soft cake layer. The cake top decoration is so subtle yet gorgeous, it's a great cake to serve on celebrations too.

    Pickup order for crepe cake slices to take back home. Many Asian inspired flavors which we love. - tiramisu mille crepe cake - passion fruit mille crepe cake - pandan coconut mille crepe cake - japanese sesame basque burnt cheesecake - hazelnut chocolate mille crepe cake Favorites includes the passion fruit mille cake and the black sesame burnt cheesecake. Passionfruit had a bright flavor that made it feel "lighter" as a dessert. The layers on all the cakes were very discernable, especially texturally. The taste of each cake was very fresh and abundant, being true to the flavor.

    best crepe cakes in sf imho! Wide variety of flavors (including Asian inspired ones), def worth a try!

    Sweet Corn Basque Cheesecake and Iced Salted Egg Yolk Latte
    Tasha H.

    Expensive, but cute and tasty pastry shop and cafe. They have tons of fun Asian flavors of crepe cake and basque cheese cake. They also have a fun salted egg yolk latte which I thought was very tasty. I tried the roasted corn cheesecake which I really enjoyed! Good texture and thought the corn flavor paired very well. One drink and one slice of cake came to $20 so it's not cheap! But a fun treat

    Tiramisu
    Carolina R.

    I was a little confused on the menu. The drinks were very good. The tiramisu was good as well. I feel like the service could have been better. They weren't very friendly or helpful. The shop itself was very clean and well kept. We definitely liked our drinks. The Matcha was my favorite. I will definitely try this place again.

    Pricey for a cake but worth it for the vibes, ambiance, instagram reels etc. I got the Ube crepe cake which was delicious, not too sweet and yum. Got the Pandan cream for my sister which she really enjoyed. The cakes are presented in a beautiful way with very attentive waiters and waitresses. I was in and out in 10 minutes. The back area looks like a vibe to sit in and talk too. Will be back on a special occasion, $26 for two slices is very steep.

    Cute box

    We stopped by after dinner at a nearby restaurant because I've been wanting to try one of these crepe cakes. We bought 2 of them to go at $12 each. They put them in really cute boxes. The cafe is clean and bright and staff was friendly. We thought about dining in but the one available table was dirty and no one had wiped down the food stains, so we decided to take the desserts home. I thought the hazelnut chocolate was OK. The nuts were not fresh and crunchy. I liked the tiramisu much better but it's not in anyway better than a real tiramisu cake. It was interesting to eating thin layers of pancakes nicely frosted with cream. It is obviously a labor of love to make. There's a lot of different flavors but I'm on the fence about trying another one.

    If you love cute, calm, aesthetic cafes, this is the perfect place! My partner and I came here after dinner nearby for a small dessert. There was a large selection of crepe cake slices to choose from - almost couldn't decide which one, they all looked so good. We went with the matcha red bean option. We sat at the table near the shop front, in front of the window (which is kind of a fun spot - we felt like we were part of the shop display because pedestrians kept walking by and looking at our food lol). The matcha cake was yummy - not too sweet and had a great balance of cream and cake. I would get it again, and also try one of their other many flavors. Would definitely recommend!

    Sweet Glory on Inner Sunset is a dessert café that specializes in crepe cakes, Asian-inspired desserts, and tea-based drinks. We walked into a cozy and relaxed space with a cute interior and a surprisingly nice back patio area that makes it feel like a hidden escape from the busier streets outside. The layout is comfortable and inviting, with plenty of seating that works well for catching up with friends, taking a break, or spending some time with a drink and dessert. The patio is probably the best place to sit when the weather is nice, offering a quieter, more open feel than the main indoor area. The main highlight is the crepe cakes. We ordered a few slices and found the layers thin, delicate, and stacked with enough cream to make each bite feel rich without being too heavy. The variety of flavors is where Sweet Glory stands out, with options like matcha, ube, pandan, earl grey, durian, and tiramisu giving the menu a more unique direction compared to traditional cake shops. The matcha crepe cake had a clean, earthy flavor that balanced well with the cream, and the ube version offered a sweeter, more dessert-forward profile. The Asian-inspired flavors are what make the café feel distinct, especially for anyone looking for desserts that feel familiar but still creative. The drinks are also worth pairing with the cakes. We tried a matcha latte and a hojicha tea, both of which complemented the desserts well and felt thoughtfully prepared. The matcha was smooth and balanced, and the hojicha had a deep, roasted flavor that paired naturally with the sweeter crepe cakes. The menu has enough variety for both coffee and tea drinkers, and the combination of a slice of crepe cake with a warm tea or iced drink makes the experience feel more like a café visit rather than just a dessert stop. Service is straightforward with counter ordering, and the overall vibe feels casual and welcoming. The staff are friendly and patient, and the pace of the visit stays relaxed even when the café gets busy. The space has good music and a comfortable layout that works well for relaxing or getting some work done, and the back patio adds another layer to the experience that makes the visit feel more complete. Sweet Glory is a great dessert café for anyone who enjoys creative cakes and a calm café setting. The variety of flavors, quality of the crepe cakes, and hidden patio make it a spot worth visiting, especially when you want something more unique than a standard bakery dessert. The balance of a well-curated menu, a comfortable environment, and a peaceful outdoor space makes it a place that rewards lingering and returning to try different flavors.

    Pandan Coconut Mille Crepe Cake; Japanese Sesame Basque Cheesecake
    Lisa X.

    Oh my goodness! So good. This has become one of our favorite dessert places. Their basque cheesecakes are amazing. Light, creamy and not too sweet. Their Millie Cakes are really good, too. Can't go wrong with any flavor, it's just hard to pick one favorites. The service is friendly. The place is clean and decorated beautifully. Also very comfy. They have these paper puzzles, crossword sheets for adults. Fun to do while enjoying their treats and drinks. If you do take out, they box your treats in beautiful boxes that are gift-giving ready. Located on 9th Ave and Irving.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

Didn't realize the rose latte would come as a hot drink but it was still good. Opted for less sweet but was a little more sweet than expected compared to the Yemeni latte. Yemeni coffee was light and subtle with cinnamon. Milk cake was moist and not too sweet - texture reminds me of a les tres cake. Rose and saffron flavors were perfect and not too overpowering Turkish coffee is not bitter or too strong. Knowing this now, will try some of their other drinks when I'm looking for something light in the future!

It's located at the filthy corner of 4th and Clara, which made the outside smell of urine. Fortunately the cafe itself is pretty clean, which is a nice escape from the street. I ordered an Americano and my friend got one of their $8+ lattes, which were fine, but nothing special. My biggest gripe was the service and absolute scorn of the customer. My friend and I sat at the counter basically in a staring contest with the woman behind the counter, who just stared right back. After some 30 seconds, we finally flagging her down to place our order. After turning around the drinks suspiciously quickly, my friend and I sat down to catch-up in the empty cafe. Before long, the barista pumps up the volume, increasing higher and higher every 5 minutes or so, as if to signal to us that our time was up. I asked her to turn down the volume, which she tuned down from an 11 to a 7, but minutes later it continued to creep up, like the snooze setting of an alarm clock coaxing you to wake up - except in this case, to get out. Ultimately, the volume got unbearable and we finally threw in the towel and got out of there to let the barista enjoy her music. Definitely never going back there - they clearly don't want the business. Food: 5/10 Service: 0/10 Price: $$ Atmosphere: 4/10

We walked into a space that feels designed for groups, with plenty of seating and a menu built around shareable desserts. The interior has a contemporary, stylish feel with comfortable seating arrangements that accommodate both small groups and larger parties, making it the type of place where you can come after dinner and spend time trying a few different things instead of just ordering one dessert. The energy is lively and social, with groups gathered around large dessert plates and the hum of conversation filling the room. The bingsu is the main attraction here, especially the mango sticky rice bingsu and volcano-style creations. We ordered the mango sticky rice version and found the shaved ice had that soft, fluffy texture that melts quickly, creating a light, refreshing base that absorbs the toppings well. The combination of sweet mango, coconut rice, and the fine ice created a nice balance of fruity sweetness and the familiar coconut flavor, and the toppings were generous enough that each bite felt complete. The volcano-style creations add a dramatic presentation, with toppings cascading over the ice and creating layers of texture and flavor that make the dessert feel more like an experience than just a bowl of ice. The crepe cakes are also worth trying, with lighter layers that make them easier to enjoy without feeling overly heavy, and the matcha and strawberry flavors stood out for their clean, well-balanced profiles. The portions are definitely on the larger side, so this is a better place to share. We found that splitting a few desserts across the table allowed us to try more of the menu without overcommitting, and the variety of options from bingsu to honey toast and lava-style desserts meant there was something for everyone. The honey toast is a fun choice if you want something warm and more indulgent, with a crisp exterior and a soft, buttery interior that pairs well with the ice cream and toppings. Some desserts can feel a little expensive depending on what you order, but the presentation and variety make it more of a dessert outing than a quick snack, and the quality of the ingredients is noticeable across the board. Service can be a little slower when it gets busy, especially later at night when the shop fills up, but the staff are generally friendly and the atmosphere makes it easy to wait. We noticed the team handling the steady flow with efficiency, and the pacing of the meal stayed comfortable even when the restaurant was full. The energy of the room remains social and relaxed, and the staff checked in at the right moments without rushing us through the meal. U:Dessert Story is a solid spot for creative Asian desserts, especially if you are going with friends and want to try a few different flavors together. The combination of shareable portions, thoughtful presentation, and a lively atmosphere makes it a destination for a more social dessert experience, offering a meal that feels both indulgent and communal. The variety across the menu gives you room to explore different styles on repeat visits, and the quality of the desserts keeps the experience feeling intentional and satisfying.
