So this is a legit professional bakery but it's not a sit down and sip latte with your pie bakery. You just order and go. They specialize in challah breads and other kosher goodies and it smells divine. Service is super friendly and the few things I tried were so good. The mint brownie is a gooey wonder.

Everything was ver tasty!

The bakery is very nice and it's especially nice to have a place where I know I can just order whatever I want, I am lactose intolerant. Though it seems like they got rid of the mini challahs that were so cute and raised their prices in the last few months

very nice and lovely place, staff is so friendly and their bread is just fresh and tasty!! Highly recommend!

Waffles are amaaaazing! Will definitely be coming back for them.

I love this bakery. The black-and-white NY-style cookies really won me over, although their waffle cookies are equally good. I hope the Blessed Braid stays around!

All bakery products are so good, I love all of their chocolate goodies, the challah and how creative they are with a lot of the products.I own a Window Treatments Boutique and the Blessed Braid is my go to for customers' gifting. My clients love it!Cheryl, the owner is a wonderful person with such a love and passion for baking, I met her when she was baking out of her own kitchen and you can just tell that the bakery is a labor of love and a state of art.

Clean and comfortable bakery! Waffle and bread are very delicious. Employees are very kind to introduce all the products...?

Waffles are a dream, wonderful customer service.

Everything we tried was amazing! (Cupcakes, Belgian waffle, cookies, challah). The bakery is beautiful - love the open concept with the counter you can walk around. And there’s a large window where you can watch the staff baking in the back. We will definitely come back whenever we’re in OC!

Everything I've tried is so good! You've got to try their amazing baked goods!
