“The customer service at this bakery is very good, the staff is very pleasant and engage in enthusiastic conversation. The desserts are also very good, especially the chocolate hazelnut mousse. Great bakery overall!There is also another bakery on San Pablo Avenue that specializes in breads and coffee that is just as great. Check out Lavender!“

“Eclairs are my favorite and the variety of these truly delectable goodies made my decision so very hard. I had the strawberry eclair, simply delicious! I also had the pomegranate Turkish delight...OMG...sooo good!Please stop by and gets some of these delicious treats!!“

“Hidden Cafe can try to hide, but I find it every time. I'm glad their employees don't hide, even though I do love playing hide & seek. I don't think I would enjoy it as much if the only way I could get my coffee from here is by finding the hidden employees at hidden cafe. Trying to find a barista to order coffee, before I've had coffee, sounds daunting. Although, it would make that cup of joe so much more rewarding. Honestly, if the employees did start hiding, I'd still go here. That's how good their coffee and carrot cake is and how confident I am in my seeking abilities. Luckily, this is something I haven't had to face. All the employees here are extremely friendly and very easy to find. I'm happy that Hidden Cafe is not good enough at hiding to the point where it would run itself out of business. I love going here!“

“Very nice place, amazing attention, I love it.“

“Absolutely the best French pasteries I’ve had on this continent!“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“Ordered birthday cake and it was divine. Cake was so moist and delicious. Customer service was fantastic too. Will definitely order again“

“Small cute Bakeshop !! This was my first stop right after I was discharged from the hospital. I heard about the wonderful treats and so glad a made it before they closed ! Clean, cute displays of the items. Friendly service no cash all card which is super convenient. Everything I tried was amazing : banana creme pie with chocolate crust , raspberry mochi cupcake, popcorn !! I will be returning to try more items but everything was a hit !“

“Super easy to work with getting my design exactly how I wanted. Not sweet or greasy~ so cute!“

“I love this place. It's a great integration of classic cantonese baked goods with modern baking sophistication. Her sponge cakes are consistently delicious; the flavour combinations work so well, my favorite is the black sesame jasmine. Today I got a mango passion fruit cheese tart that I inhaled; so creamy and yet light. A must visit on the weekends.“

“Was looking for a birthday cake that wasn't too sweet and was recommended the chocolate raspberry cake. We let it come to room temperature before serving and it was absolutely delicious! Moist cake (very similar to a moist cupcake consistency), chocolatey and not too sweet (they use Swiss chocolate) coupled with bites of fresh raspberry buttercream-- Very happy we came upon this bakery and looking forward to visiting more often!“

“Yummy coconut custard bun! Can’t wait to go back and try more of the beautiful treats“

“The donuts and the coffees are so delightful the delicious flavors of the different donuts. It's to be admired and adored because not many places give you the variety that you have here. Servers were wonderful atmosphere was fantastic. What's not to love? Please check out diamond donuts if you're in San Francisco.“

“I've been coming to this little bakery for about five years now, and every time I come here, I am never disappointed. Great service with a lot of great bake goods. The fruit tarts are simply the best, I cant say enough, great things about it.“

“If you're in the mood for a decent tasting croissant or french-style pastry or sandwich, and you're near FiDi, SoMa, or the Embarcadero, this spot has fairly solid offerings. I was in the area and turned back after passing the window when I saw their croissants on display. Picked up a plain croissant and pineapple custard/brulee croissant pastry to try. Both had the right amount of crispiness/flakiness and airiness to their bite. The pineapple custard was tasty with a nice char on top to bring out the caramelized sugar and pineapple flavor. Croissants and pastries run about $5 to $7. They also seem to have sandwiches ranging from $9 (for their breakfast sammie) to about $16 for more filling and savory choices. They also have a few tables inside to seat about 8 people, within their narrow store that has entrances from both Market St and the other end of the store on Sutter St.“
