Open now for about a week, Candybar prides itself on being San Francisco's first dessert lounge. Though at this point, we're not quite sure if this extension of the NY-LA trend of dessert lounges is a good or bad thing, there's no denying that Candybar has capitalized on a nice niche and created a very substantial buzz for itself in the early going. Preliminary reports still have the crew working out some kinks, but on the whole, everyone seems to be rooting for this one to do well. Be advised that sweets aren't the only offering, with a full wine list and savory menu also available. Between them, the pair of sweet and savory chefs boast experience from Coi, Boulevard and the French Laundry, so this little NoPa joint might be onto something.
