Where are the best macarons in SF/Bay Area?

Pros

Pro
Consistent, quality texture

No air bubbles, perfectly crisp shells over chewy, moist center.

Pro
Intense, exotic flavors

Over two dozen regular flavors, plus more special rotational flavors. Each flavor really tastes like the real thing (especially kona coffee, earl grey, lemon).

Pro
Reasonably priced

Between $2-$3 per Macaron, depending on order count, which is at or below competitor prices.

Cons

Con
Lack of storefront

Although selected flavors are available at most Whole Foods, ordering online for the packaged versions are a real hit or miss. The box of 48 in particular, can come quite squished, due to the unstructured boxes.
