Reviews for Dessert Republic in San Mateo, CA
wow ?never had this kind of bad service before. We finished the dinner in San Mateo downtown, and walked to this place ordered... some dessert. we decided to have a Togo order, while although the place is pretty empty, but we cannot wait inside, the outsideis windy and a little bit cold , but since they only let us wait outside , have to cancel the order and leave with sick feeling.When I do business , I cannot make money from the customer and push them outside.

Love coming here with friends. They have many options from refreshing fruit to savory hot dishes. We got the egg pudding and the... three different colored fruity desserts. Read more

Atmospheric, great if you're missing that Hong Kong vibe The selection of desserts is amazing. Has the traditional stuff to... crepes and fancy molecular gastronomy. There's savory snacks, noodles and rice too A little pricey, but good servicepresentation and flavor Read more
Pretty solid HK style dessert spot! Has all-the-fruit types of desserts and the more traditional not-too-sweet variety too. The... decor inside is pretty cool - it feels like you're sitting outside the shops of Hong Kong. Would come again to try somethingnew! They also serve eggettes / egg waffles and savory snacks.

My passion fruit tea was made with real fruit and it was pretty good. The popcorn chicken could of had more flavor. Overall nice... place especially because it?s open late and the staff are great. Edit: went again and drinks were way worse dropping it to a3/5. Read more
Huge menu of desserts and savory items. Have only tried the desserts but they are very good. Price point may be higher than some... of their competitors, but the service is great, and they stay open later than most dessert places these days. Last but criticalchange to note: they finally take credit cards. Read more
Decent HK-style dessert shop! Huge menu with lots of dessert (and food, if you want to have a meal here) options. Fairly... inexpensive and the desserts aren't too sweet. Kind of cramped, but places in HK would be cramped as well, so perhaps they weretrying to create that atmosphere. Overall, had a good time and I'm definitely coming back! Read more
