The 14 Best Restaurants In Japantown - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"Walk anywhere within a two-block radius of the Japan Center and you’re bound to see at least five people with matcha soft serve in their hands. That’s because the sweet treats coming out of Matcha Cafe Maiko are delicious, especially the soft serve that's so thick you could hold a cup of it upside down and it wouldn’t fall out. Whenever we’re at this counter-service dessert spot inside of the mall, we go for the sundae drizzled with housemade kuromitsu syrup and topped with boba. If there's a line, try your luck at Maruwu Seicha located one floor up." - julia chen 1, lani conway
