“I have been going to Porto's since the 1980's..the one in Glendale. How elated I was with having them being in Northridge where I live. The food is terrific and the lines go fast due to a tremendous quick system they have. The catering for parties has never let us down and people you have invited that never have experienced Portos are thrilled. The cakes are delicious. What I do miss is not having the individual cake slices for purchase so you can experience the taste. They only have the neapolitan, Parisian, and carrot for slices. I've seen the menu change over time and do miss some of the items.“

“Walking into this restaurant was refreshing. It has very calming ambiance. Combination with the great healthy option and tasty food was a cherry on top. Green toast recommendation by Marina was a good option with flavorful Avacado on top did the magic. Couldn't resist shrimp toast and Classic oval tray from the menu. Food tasted really fresh and overall service was very welcoming and positive. Totally recommended for anyone who enjoys healthy food options, breakfast or lunch!“

“Hidden coffee and pastry gem in the Heart of Beverly Hills. Definitely a great date spot 🤫 Do not miss the chance to visit if you are a tourist 😋 For locals try their Salmon Bagel reminds me of New York 🗽
P.S. also they have luxury and bougie cakes 🤪“

“Enjoyed our breakfast, very friendly staff, large portions, homemade bread and excellent service!“

“💖 We were just talking about how PERFECT your cupcakes are! The sweetness ratio is absolutely idyllic because the sugar does not overpower the gorgeous flavor. Worth every penny!!! 🧁“

“Our Ubber driver David recommended we check it out. It did not disappoint. we ordered 4 different savoury pasteries, not knowing what any of them were. All were delicious!“

“I came here Sunday evening because I needed to take pastries to a last minute gathering. The service was wonderful. Everyone was so helpful. I even purchased some cheesecake for my husband. He's very picky but he absolutely loved it. I'm definitely coming back to try their coffee drinks.“

“Finally I felt like hometown! Everything tastes amazing! Real homemade foods! 1000000% recommending!!!“

“**A sweet slice of heaven in Santa Monica!** Junior Cookies is an absolute *gem*. I came in for the cookies (which are AMAZING – warm, gooey, and perfectly crisp on the edges), but I stayed for the whole vibe. Their ice cream is ultra creamy with rich, dreamy flavors that pair perfectly with the cookies—highly recommend making your own cookie cream with ice cream with cookies! I was also pleasantly surprised by how good their coffee is. It’s bold, smooth, and just what I needed to balance out the sugar rush. Honestly, it’s rare to find a cookie shop where the coffee actually stands out, but Junior Cookies gets it right. Best coffee, best cookies, best matcha, and best ice cream in la! The place is super cute inside, with a cozy neighborhood feel and friendly staff who seem genuinely happy to be there. You can tell everything is made with love. The cookies and recipes are unique. 5 star bakery in LA. If you're in Santa Monica, **don’t miss this spot**. Whether you’re craving dessert, a caffeine fix, or just want to treat yourself, Junior Cookies delivers!“

“I’ve been coming here for almost five years. Their ham and cheese croissant used to be one of the best in LA with perfectly laminated dough, thick ham, and plenty of cheese. The shell was a bit dense and heavier than other bakeries, but that’s actually why I enjoyed it. It had a unique texture and feel.

Sadly, the quality has declined a lot in recent years. The croissant is now much smaller, dry, and skimpy on fillings. Today it honestly tasted like an airport croissant.

Coffee, Swedish buns, and other food are still great, and the staff are always kind. But the shop often seems understaffed and the dining area is not as clean as before. I still want to support them, but the overall experience no longer feels as special as it once did.“

“Hi how are you a chocolate frosting cake with butter cream on balloons from grandmas Sandy’s birthday for me yes“

“Great cookiesss tryna get points lol“

“I just ordered for the first time today and I must say your food is fantastic! Generous portion with pickles and delicious soft boiled eggs, pickles, puréed fresh tomatoes and a small amount of hot sauce that isn’t too hot. Just right. Went to your place near corner of Van Nuys and Burbank. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED“

“My family and I have been coming here for years, and they always have the best quality cakes. They always provide great service and my orders are always accurate. We have never had any issue and we always appreciate the friendly and knowledgeable staff.“

“My absolute new favorite restaurant! We were visiting family in LA from Chicago and they took us here, I ended up going three times in my one week visit. Cheese stuffed zaatar and the sojouk kachopuri were my favorite and the garlic chicken wrap was my husbands. Honestly everything we had was delicious and the kids kept asking for the pepperoni pizza and mini pizzas.“

“I am a huge fan of Banana Pudding and this place has it. Magnolia is known to be best, but I beg to differ!! Schatzi's in my opinion is the better choice. The pudding is not just fluffed and whipped, it has actual solid ingredients and the perfect balance of bananas. My new go to!!“

“This is a superb bakery for deserts, cakes & pastries in Woodland Hills! Cake was fresh and delicious. This is a business that cares about their customers. Special Thank you to Tim, professional. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I recently found this Vegan bakery, and I loved it! They have a good variety of pan dulce. They also have very good vegan tamales. I fully recommend this place.“

“My first time trying Mediterranean food and what can I say, the dishes were authentic and so delicious, especially the Fattoush Salad . Loved it so much. I will definitely recommend to my friends.“

“The blackberry crunch toast was amazing. Great service, friendly staff & nice location.“

“We had an amazing breakfast! Definitely coming back! Ingredients are really good quality, fruits were really ripe and fresh, scrambled eggs were so gentle and nice, potatoes were great too. The flakey french toast was to die for. Thank you for such good quality of food. I would like to try all their other stuff as well!“

“I come by here at least once a week, the bread and pastries are baked fresh daily and the workers always treat you like family. It doesn't look like much from outside but it's my go-to local bakery. I would highly recommend the jalapeno bread with creme cheese, but come early because they run out often by noon.“

“I love the ice cream and desserts at this shop.“

“These are hands down the best Crumbl cookies I’ve ever had. Every time I come to this location, the cookies are fresh, warm, and absolutely delicious. The flavors are always on point, and you can really tell they take pride in what they’re making here.
What really keeps me coming back, though, is the consistency. No matter when I visit, the quality never disappoints. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the whole experience just feels worth it every single time.
I’ve tried other locations, but none compare to this one. This is officially my go-to spot, and honestly, I won’t be going anywhere else. If you’re thinking about trying Crumbl, make it this location—you won’t regret it.“

“Delicious food! Great service!“

“Best baked choco 🍩 .. mmm“

“The dessert box was a big hit even by seasoned bakers. The kids claimed their favorites first. I highly recommend saving your host time and worry. Take the best. My host had a sneak bite and energized with a huge smile to greet her guests with a huge smile knowing the grand finale was going to be stunning and delicious! BIG HIT“

“She does a beautiful job, the cake tastes amazing, and her customer service is fantastic!! Sonia did wedding cakes for my sister and everyone loved it!“

“Inside, there is only room to order food and buy bread. Their cinnamon roll is pretty good, but served cold. Their everything cookie is delicious. There is ample seating outdoors for brunch, and servers are nice. The breakfast sandwich is good, and their standouts are shakshuka (absolutely delicious!) and the chai latte. Their vanilla latte is also well bodied and just sweet enough.“

“delicious fresh bread which is baked daily. great Italian products and their cheesecake is amazing.“

“Here is a polished review in English that you can post:

I had a wonderful experience at Chaumont in Beverly Hills. The bakery offers an authentic French café atmosphere with beautifully crafted pastries and fresh baked goods. The almond croissant was exceptionally flaky, buttery, and full of flavor, while the coffee paired perfectly with the pastries. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the visit even more enjoyable. The quality of the ingredients and attention to detail are evident in every bite. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, brunch, or a quick coffee and pastry, Chaumont is a fantastic choice. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for one of the best French bakery experiences in Beverly Hills.“

“Baklava by the pound. So good!“

“Not only are the pastries super delicious but the staff at this location are so wonderful to me every single time I go in! They always welcome me, they always smile and make me feel welcome like I'm an old friend!“

“review_stars 01/04/2025 - Ray Beker The Best Lahmajune in All of Southern California. They have Zahtar Maneishe. Cheese Beorek. Spinach Beorek. Spicy Cheese Beorek. Meat Beorek. Potato Beorek. Special order Mini Party Sizes . The Best prices. No order is too big or small.“

“Tasty goodies and breads nobody would ever suspect as being gluten free. Place is perfect!“

“This is my favorite spot to get fresh Armenian donuts, piroshki and jingalov hats. Armenian donuts are far superior than American donuts. If this place had fresh juices and sandwiches, I would never need to go into a regular donut shop ever again.“

“Thank you to everyone at Cake N Bake for helping us create such a magical moment for our daughter. Your talent and dedication brought sweetness to our special day, and we are grateful for the joy you’ve helped us celebrate🙌💫♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“The lavash is wonderful and without all the extra added ingredients, pure and simple!“

“Excellent!! Always find unique baked goods made with care. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, offering suggestions and letting me sample a few things before deciding. Whether you're picking up something for yourself, bringing a treat to a friend, or planning for a special occasion, this place is a must-visit.“

“Friendly cozy place. Best croissants!!“

“This is your typical family owned bakery where you are treated as family, very good bread, fresh coffee is served in the early hours of the morning, prices are reasonable, parking space is not always a good thing since the bakery shares the shopping with other businesses. I will definitely keep it as a morning stop.“

“I discovered this little donut shop earlier this week and I'm so glad I went inside because the owner was so kind and helped me decide what to order as a first time customer. I got the Vietnamese Iced Coffee (which was the perfect combination between creamy, sweet, and strong) and a Ham and Cheese Croissant. I'm usually not the biggest fan of glazed donuts just because they're a little sweet for my taste, but after trying one of their hot, freshly made glazed donuts, I was really impressed with the quality, freshness, and texture (soo fluffy)! I got to work and told all of my coworkers to try out this spot. I definitely need to come back because the quality and heart is there!“

“I got so many cakes from there while my kids were growing up. It all started at my oldest daughter’s Sweet 16. What I loved is the guy makes fancy cakes for celebrities for a lot of money, and God only knows why my daughter thought she can have the same cake as Hollywood people, but he helped me come up with designs that were affordable for me. So many people asked me where I got my kids cakes from every time. There are so many places that makes fancy cakes now but they are the original sculpture cake guys. The guy was a sculpture artist who just happens to sculpture cake material. I don’t now if the same guy is still making all the cakes but he was fantastic. I think I bought total of 6 cakes from him over the years.“

“Absolutely fantastic Baklava! It was so good that as soon as I tasted it I immediately order for my daughter and best friend. So fresh and perfectly made.“

“Thank you Doan’s for providing our wedding cake on 10/15/22. It was SO BEAUTIFUL and tasty. Doan’s was my choice because they were willing to work with our budget, but mostly because : THEY ARE SO NICE! One phone call with Marina, and I knew I liked her. I knew I could trust her to do great work. She was supportive, kind, and was on my side. They provided the cake, delivered, and placed the topper and flowers on our cake. It was a two tier red velvet cake. Oh! Did I mention it was delicious? Our guest raved about it! Thank you Doan’s and Marina! If you need a delicious, beautiful, yet affordable wedding cake from good people - call Doan’s!“

“Uzzi’s has delicious cookies including my favorite the strawberries n’cream and also an assortment of marshmallows to choose from. The vanilla chocolate swirl marshmallows are often requested by my daughter swirled with Belgian chocolate mmmm. Quality mostly organic whole ingredients! Don’t hesitate! Try them!“

“The atmosphere is very much like grab n' go, but if you need a place to sit and quickly enjoy some food it's good too! The tamales are good, the pan dulce is good and the champurrado is delicious! The champurrado is not too sweet which I really appreciate coming from a family of diabetics. Pricing is fair, they bake everything there so it's definitely worth it!“

“Grab a few of your favorites, they even have fresh pan de sal and food to go!“
