"Matcha Man used to be a pop-up, and while it sure was fun chasing them around the Puget Sound, it's even better to know that we can stop in their Georgetown shop anytime (well, during opening hours at least) for a freshly-griddled taiyaki with excellent matcha soft serve dispensed inside. The green tea ice cream is clearly the standout, but we'd use their cereal milk flavor in our morning Corn Flakes every day if we could." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"We love this manga-themed dessert joint all year-long for its cascading peaks of soft serve in crispy cones—but it’s a required visit during flip-flop weather. The matcha-ube swirl is an unbeatable combo, but don’t forget the vegan dole whip and mango taiyaki, with tang that instantly cools you by five degrees." - gabe guarente, kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo
"After years operating as a pop-up, taiyaki and matcha soft serve specialist Matcha Man set up shop in Georgetown in 2021, where it quickly became a neighborhood fixture. The fish-shaped waffles filled with ice cream flavors like ube, Thai tea, matcha, and black sesame are still on offer — and are as Instagrammable (and wonderful) as ever." - Sophie Grossman

"After years operating as a pop-up, matcha green tea soft serve and taiyaki specialist Matcha Man recently set down more permanent roots with a new shop. The fish-shaped waffles filled with flavors like ube, and matcha are still on offer and as Instagrammable (and wonderful) as ever." - Eater Staff, Sophie Grossman
