2023-08-29 17:47:56Too expensive for what you pay for. Although all the snacks and desserts here are delicious! I ordered the eggpuff waffle with ice cream as shown in the photo and the total came out to about $13. Theres no filling where the cardboard holder is so it looks a bit misleading. I thought it cost a little too much, but great for a quick snack.

2023-10-16 03:10:25Little hole in the wall Cafe that serves what essentially is asian street food. They have vietnamese sandwiches, Boba drinks, sweet ginger tofu, crepes, egg buble waffle, and some other sweet and savory offerings. You can easily find this shop by following the loud techno/club/dance music they play on the speakers. The workers are really nice and explain what they have to offer and what it is if you dont know. It can get a bit overwhelming if there are lots of people waiting since the menu is so diverse. The entire shop looks like someone just crammed lots of signage and decorations in the tiny space to make it look busier and fuller. I dont even know how the people that work there get behind the counter. Haha.When we came for a weekend late night snack/dessert run at close to 8:40pm there wasnt too many people but within 5 to 10 minutes more people started to come by to buy stuff. We ordered a crepe that had fresh mango pieces, ice cream and whip cream; a crepe with fresh strawberry pieces, ice cream and whip cream; thai iced tea with Boba; and a warm silken tofu with ginger syrup. The mango crepe was delicious and not too sweet. The strawberry crepe was too sweet since they used strawberry jam while the mango crepe had a drizzle of mango syrup. I couldnt taste the Thai ice tea until we got home and ate something salty to counter all that sweet stuff we ate. I didnt even attempt to try the warm silken tofu since I was eating the crepe and I wouldnt have tasted anything anyways. We will be back to try the other stuff they have. Everything looks delicious.Update 10/15/23. Came here for a little treat because of my sons birthday. We noticed that they had signs advertising 20th anniversary buy 2 get 1 free deal. Honestly I dont remember them being there for 20 years but whatever... We ordered Thai teas, fish curry balls, and bubble egg waffles. The Thai teas were good, the curry balls were pretty flavorful and firm with a bit of chewiness but I had to take them off the stick in order to coat them in the curry sauce at the bottom of the tray. The waffles were hot with a good vanilla flavor. They were crunchy on the outside with a chewy mochi like interior.

2022-12-10 06:36:44Charismatic owner and friendly service: 5 starsPrices overall: two stars for getting outrageous.$7 for egg puffs? Thats ludicrous even if the flavors were creative/unique. Another $6 for 2 sticks of bland fish balls with unimpressive sauces? I wont go for that again.There has *not* been a time when I came and saw the prices didnt increase.

2022-11-07 05:10:53Hong Kong Snack House is now my favorite food stall in the SF Bay Area. First of all, the shop is set up in a way that mimics old-time Hong Kong food stall, which gives me warm, nostalgic feelings. The snacks, dessert, and street food sold here are quite authentic and tasty. The eggettes are made to order and their recipe has a perfect balance of flour and eggs. Its crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Their durian eggettes and durian smoothies are worth mentioning as well, since they use real durian fruit here! After learning from the owner that the shop is open every day except Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I will definitely frequent it more often :)

2022-09-13 18:02:45One of the best bubble waffles (egg puffs) ever! It’s crispy on the outside but still chewy on the inside and freshly made so it kinda melts in your mouth.

2021-11-19 05:42:21The ice cream crepe was freshly made and tasty. It was crispy and kids loved it. On the other hand, my good looking Thai milk tea tasted funny. The boba wasn’t fresh. End up dumping it in the garage. Will bring kids back for crepe but not boba teas🧋 .

2021-12-18 20:19:41I have been going here for years for their crepes! They have perfected authentic yummy and handheld crepes – most stores sell soggy crepes on plates, which I dislike. The only improvement would be to have savory crepes, but otherwise they are amazing~~~~

2018-08-21 23:14:23The strawberry, who cream, chocolate drizzle, 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream crepe was $7 and so good! The texture of the crepe is like a light crispy, thin cookie. Check out the picture (sometimes for the order #13, it may come with bananas and/or blueberries too) Yummy!
