    Mango açaí bowl
    Daniela B.

    I've been wanting to try this spot for a while, and overall it's a solid option if you're in the mood for an açaí bowl, coffee, or a quick sandwich. The location is great just a few blocks away from the beach. I ordered the Westside special sandwich and it was decent, but my order wasn't quite right. I had asked for no bacon and expected it to come with Monterey Jack cheese, but it came with American cheese instead. Not a dealbreaker, but a bit disappointing. As for the açaí bowls, I tried both the mango (unintentionally again order wasn't taken right) and the regular. The mango version was okay, but a little too sweet for my taste and leaned more toward an ice cream-like flavor. The regular açaí, though, was really good and definitely the standout. Service was a great and the staff were very friendly! Overall, I'd come back, especially for the classic açaí bowl, but would double-check my order next time.

    Dubai Chocolate Strawberry  Cup

    Stumbled upon this spot I've always seen online and have been wanting to try but never looked into where in the city it was. Me and my friends tried the popular Dubai chocolate strawberry cup. It was absolutely delicious, although a bit on the pricey side at almost $20. The size is pretty big though, so definitely shareable. I would come back and try other things on their menu like their açaí bowls or breakfast sandwiches

    Small, no frills shop. Got the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup. It was quite delicious and I especially loved the toasted kataifi on top which added a nice crunch. The price for it was pretty steep though coming at $18.75 for a cup.

    The lox was a little wet. It was the last portion in the bag . My bagel was not toasted . It was busy so I had to wait a little bit. . The place had a lot of photos. The place is pretty big. . I was looking forward to visiting this place but I was unfortunately not impressed.

    Popular casual pick up and go place for sandwich's drinks and Dubai chocolate & açaí bowl! Attaching all menu items! Can seat about ten people inside and outside.

    Summer 2025: Dubai chocolate strawberry cup was hella good. Not too sweet and had lots of strawberries. Great to share between 2 people. Might be too much for 1. Placed an order for pickup on their website so mine didn't look as pretty as people that ordered there. Others looked like they got more strawberries, mine looked like it had more kataife. Still totally worth the $20 after tax. I'll be back!

    Yonkers Special Sandwich

    Small cafe in Sunset area of SF. Barely any seating and seems like people just takeout from here. Classic sandwich spot in SF with açaí and Dubai chocolate strawberries. Dubai chocolate cup was over $20 after tax and tip! Big and delicious but a bit pricey. Pistachio could have been stronger. Would come again if I were in the area!

    Service is not only homey, reminded me of the bodegas back in NYC, but the sandwiches AMAZING, the açaí bowls REFRESHING, and lastly the dubai chocolate strawberries cup DELISH, I drove all the way from sacramento for this pregnancy craving and they served fr ! they also had a restroom which is such a plus even being busy it seemed organized and overall a great establishment

    DUBAI CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY CUP - 4.5/5
    Michael C.

    I'd been here years ago... and had nothing but good things to say. That hasn't changed. Looks like they pivoted their business a bit and are capitalizing on the viral Dubai Chocolate Trend. Kudos to them! #ViralTrends: ~ DUBAI CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY CUP - 4.5/5 They use melted Belgium Chocolate... the big difference maker! Commonly regarded as the best Chocolate in the world... which explains the rich, creamy and chocolatey, yet not too sweet profile. It's a bit on the pricey side at slightly over $20 after tax, but well worth it. I wouldn't finish it myself, you are most definitely asking for an immense Blood Sugar spike. It's large enough to finish half in one sitting and enjoy the other half later. Packed with Strawberries, Kunafa and good amount of melted Chocolate. Don't get it to go, you'll feel short changed. Order it to enjoy on the spot and then ask for a lid. The presentation is even better as well. If this had more of a Pistacho taste it would be a full 5 ***** for me!

    When anything on social media blows up, you always gotta wonder if its a hit or miss. Welcome Dubai chocolate. I'm not a baker so I wasn't gona make my own. I'm also not a hardcore "foodie" so I'm not going to put tooooo much effort and search for this item. But one day, after eating a full container of shabu meat for lunch, I needed something sweet to offset all that meat. Low and behold, I see Dubai chocolate cups at Yonkers. Sweet. I drive over and to my luck, no wait. Dubai Chocolate cups - the chocolate was rich and milky. The filling was silky but I didn't really taste the pistachio. The crispy knafeh was crispin alright. And the strawberries fresh. I googled the price of a bar of Dubai chocolate and holy smokes! I'm glad i just had to pay a portion for a taste of it here. Overall, would I pay $18 again for this treat, probably not.

    4.5 STARS I know some may be sick and tired of hearing about Dubai chocolate. The trend is getting out of pocket to the point there's even Dubai chocolate perfume. Great way to attract chocolate addicts and big backs! As someone that usually doesn't care for chocolate, I've been weirdly obsessed with Dubai chocolate since it went viral last year. I've had some awful Dubai chocolate and Dubai chocolate inspired desserts where some businesses are only trying to monetize off this viral trend BUT... Yonkers Cafe's Dubai Chocolate Strawberry Cup ($18)? Loved it. It's currently on my Top 2 fav, after Hanna's Dubai Chocolate Bar (Pleasanton). Large perfectly ripen, juicy sweet strawberries smothered in sweet but not too sweet melted Belgium chocolate and thick, creamy pistachio cream with deliciously crunchy kataifi (toasted shredded phyllo dough). So deliciously satisfying. We shared a cup and contemplated getting another one. Yes, $18 ($23 after tax+tip) is kinda ridic for a cup of strawberries (it was $15 last month) but compared to ONE (yes "one") Elly Amai's Strawberry at Erewhon for $19, this is a steal and you're supporting a small local business. But.... We visited on a weekday and they weren't too busy yet our cup was missing the crushed pistachios and strawberry crown so I can't give 5 stars. Hope they work on serving customers a consistent product. P.S. - Order ahead via Yonkers Cafe's website to skip the line and long wait on the weekends!

    Came here around 4:30pm on a Saturday and there was no line! We ordered the strawberries with Dubai chocolate for $18 (not including tip and tax) and it was tasty. It had crunchy bits on it too that added a nice texture. This was my second time trying Dubai chocolate and I wish it was more pistachio-y but maybe that's not how it's supposed to be? I definitely recommend sharing as it's very rich. My 2 friends and I shared one cup and were very satisfied afterwards.

    This place is unclean, and the tables are filthy, including the kitchen. Regarding the desserts they serve, cleanliness also indicates how hygienic the staff are. Since I'm eating their food, I'm trying not to dwell on the employees' hygiene practices. It's unfortunate. Additionally, the desserts are quite expensive.

I come to NEMS for lab work a lot and every time after I fasted, I come here for the rescue: Blueberry muffins, blueberry parfait and their latte with oatmilk is also amazing. The only draw back is they have a ton of loyal customers who are elderly and super loud, speaking in their native village language for extended periods.

But if you want a vibrant energy with lots of odd mixture, the best coffees and lovely, heated pastries with at least 10 different varieties, then this place is unbeatable! Haha

Love seeing the roaster and beans being roasted. Ordered a latte and it was piping hot, unfortunately way too hot to drink, so be careful. Once cooled down, the coffee was good, medium almost dark roast. Matcha was okay, had good flavor. The baked good is from a starter bakery which is from Berkeley/Oakland area. The baked good were delicious, so wish it can be heated up. Overall, a solid option for well priced coffee that roasts in house beans, but do need to watch milk temperature so that it is not too hot to drink.
