Delicious matcha! We arrived around 1:15pm on a Saturday and had about a 20 minute wait in line. You have to first order and pay at the window out front before you are seated at a table inside. I ordered a matcha latte and my friend ordered the iced strawberry latte with hojicha. Since we ordered drinks only, we were limited to a 30 minute seating, which they did time down to the minute and tell us when our time was up. So not somewhere I'd recommend for lingering or catching up with friends given the strict time limit
Came back for a second time and brought my whole family. 100% did not disappoint any of us! On a Saturday 11am we were able to be seated at the high top table immediately but would've had to wait a while for booth/table.
We ordered a lot (see photos) and everything was so yummy. Katsu curry was probably the most basic one. But the salmon matcha thing and rice porridge things were really good. Like so yummy. My mom thought the latter wasn't salty enough but I was okay with it.
Now.. dessert is FIRE. We loved the matcha pie and the sesame cream puff. Overall so good. We also got an Iced strawberry matcha latte and once mixed it was just properly sweet but not too sweet. Thank you!
------- ORIGINAL REVIEW: ---------
On a weekday afternoon there wasn't a line for dining but there was for ordering Togo/pickup. Once seated, the food and drinks and snacks come out very quickly, and you have 1 hour time limit. I'm not sure if it is strictly enforced during off peak hours though.
Their pork katsu sandwich is really yummy. It's very crispy. Their matcha cream pie slice is quite big, and the cream is very sweet and flavorful, the matcha is very thick, and the crust is very crispy and flaky. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Their matcha latte was not that sweet, which I think is more authentic but might not be to everyone's preference.
Overall great experience and would definitely come back.
We must have missed out on something!Walked by yesterday (8.26.23) and was wondering what this massive block-long line for Stonemill Matcha was about. I’m from out of town. Come to find out it’s closing for good today and their fans are coming one last time, to support and say farewell. What a beautiful sendoff! Good job SF, and best of luck to the owners of Stonemill Matcha.
