“Nice place, great food, delicious pastries, the staff could be more knowledgeable of the items they carry. I used the restroom while there there was no toilet paper on any of the stalls ( maybe because they were soon to close)Overall, we need more Porto's in other cities, delicious.“
“I came here on a Thursday so it wasn't too crowded. Stopped by before heading to the AngelCity Market. I tried the Yuzu Jasmine Lemonade, Cheese & Spicy Peppers Potato Ball and the Chicken Torta. All very delicious!Parking: The parking structure is behind Portos and it's good for 2hr parking as long as you're a customer.“
“The cupcakes came out adorable! I almost didn't want to eat them, but I'm glad I got these for my son's holiday party. Everyone devoured them! Thank you so much for fitting us in within this busy week! We'll definitely be back. The man on the phone was polite and helped me handle everything.“
“Stumbling upon this gem was like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow - I needed a birthday cake for my hubby and friend of mine, pronto! Despite the last-minute scramble, I managed to slide in an order just in time. The lady behind the counter was an absolute delight, showering me with ideas for cake colors and fillings. Fast forward to pick-up time, and holy moly, I was floored! This cake wasn't just a cake - it was a work of edible art! The colors popped, the decorations were cuteness overload, and let me tell you, it tasted like a slice of happiness. I lost count of the compliments, and everyone wanted to know the secret cake haven I'd uncovered. Bottom line? This spot is a cake lover's dream come true!“
“My go-to for sweets! Staff are welcoming and friendly. Communication for cake ordering went smoothly. Best of all, my mom loved her birthday cake! Thank you! Highly recommend Sugar From the Heart! I just added the cake topper purchased from etsy :)“
“First time here and they nailed it. Got the Bolognese sauce, very tasty and the pasta, curly long ones, were excellent. The wine did not really pair with the red sauce, a Spanish dry red...Water next time perhaps. Will definitely return to this spot! The bread was very tasty ....after we had them cut it for us.“
“They have a really good selection of essentially anything you could ever need. From kids parties to high end dinner parties, there's decor for a wide range of events and aesthetics. You can also call ahead to see if they have what you're looking for. Definitely better than buying on Amazon/online! Love their sugar flowers and decor“
“Absolutely delightful! My visit to this charming ice cream shop in Seal Beach, California was a truly delightful experience. The variety of both dairy and non-dairy options was a pleasant surprise, and the quality of the ice cream was top-notch. In particular, the chocolate chip oat milk ice creamwas simply divine - a perfect blend of flavors that left me craving more.The staff's warm and friendly demeanor made the visit even more enjoyable. Their excellent service and genuine enthusiasm for their ice cream creations added a special touch to the overall experience. I'm already looking forward to my next visit and can't wait to explore more of their mouthwatering flavors.If you're in the area and craving some of the best scoops of ice cream you've ever had, this place is an absolute must-visit. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a sweet and satisfying treat. I'll definitely be coming back for more - this shop has won me over!“
“Received amazing service from the owner Mohammed. a custom cake one day in advance. The cake was custom from the ice cream down to the colors and I was even able to add a picture on top. Mohammed was very responsive and courteous. Great location and not too busy.“
“I've purchased multiple cakes and treats from Vere throughout the years and, every time, she delivers! She's extremely talented in bringing your vision to life. I appreciate the online ordering system because, let's face it, not everyone has the time to place a cake order in person. It's been awesome to see the growth from a home baker to a storefront.“
“They made my mom’s birthday cake it was a work of art and it was delicious. We chose my mom’s favorite. Carrot cake with a whip cream frosting and custard filling. It was the most delicious carrot cake I ever had! Even family members who exclaimed they did not like carrot cake tried this one and changed their mind it was that good!! We also got a flan pie. Same thing. So delicious. I wish I knew about this baker for my wedding cake but going forward I will get all my pies and cakes here. I highly recommend it!!“
“I am so confused by these reviews regarding the owner. I received nothing but the best from Leslie. She was not available on our wedding date and I was really sad about it but she suggested I have the cake delivered the day before. It was so great of her to fit me in and work with me to make sure I got the best damn cake for my wedding. I wasn't sure I wanted a cake but when she sent me samples I literally wanted to have a 6 tier cake so we didn't have to choose. It was some of the best cake I have ever tried! All were amazing. We went for banana creme and coconut passion fruit which were BEYOND. So sad she doesn't have a store front anymore! Will definitely be ordering cake for every anniversary if she will let us!“
“Who doesn't love cupcakes!? While out and about, I came across Coco’s Lip Smacking Cupcakes. The sign said it all for me and I had to check it out. When I entered, the space was very clean, organized, and just very appealing to the eye. The aesthetic was very cute and definitely my vibe. They offer a bunch of different yummies including cookies, cake, cobbler, and of course, cupcakes. The lady was very sweet and helpful. I went with a dozen cupcakes. I got a variety of different flavors. I got red velvet, chocolate, vanilla, cookies & cream, and a few others.The cupcakes were so good!! The cake part was very moist and the frosting just melted in your mouth. It wasn't heavy or too sweet. If I'm in the area, I'll have to pick up some more! Thank you for a great experience!! “
“I am new to Bellflower, and haven't really acclimated yet. I needed a birthday cake asap. I am so happy I found Fantasy Cakes Bakery. The owner took my order and he was very personable.. I ordered the cake Friday afternoon and it was ready for pick-up Saturday morning... The bakery was not even a five minute drive from my house, lots of ample parking in the back, and the shop is too cute.. that whole area has lots of curb appeal... I don't ever drive that way (work in the opposite direction). The cake was adorable, it was perfect... it wasn't an elaborate cake, but it was perfect for me. I wasn't able to take any pictures, it was eaten in like, 2.4 seconds. I don't even like cake or sweets, but I liked that cake... The cake had lemon cream filling and vanilla frosting, it was moist and just very delicious... all the February birthday names fit perfectly and they loved it... one of my nieces kinda had a tear.. not sure cause I remembered her birthday or maybe because she was suppose to give up sweets for lent.. Anywho, this bakery is a win, win, win... Thanks Fantasy Cakes for making me the best auntie ever!!“
“Gemmae's has always been our go-to when it comes to family parties. We usually order the ube cheesecake and lumpia for pickup. The flavor and quality are always consistent, so we always go back. The online ordering system is very convenient; thus, picking it up at specific times has never been a problem! They use real ube, not those powder kinds they use at boba shops. I know.. I grew up mixing ube during fiestas in Silang, Cavite. The lumpia is excellent, too! The size is bigger than the typical lumpia from other Filipino joints. The inside of Gemmae's is excellent. However, there is no indoor dining, and it's solely for pick-up. One thing to note is the parking. It's situated in a small lot and can get full quickly. But there's plenty of free parking in the street. I will keep coming back here for our orders. The customer service is excellent, and the food/dessert is fantastic!“
“Vegetarian options: My husband and I are the second time we have ordered from this Bakery. On Thursday we ordered a vegan, sugar-free cake for our baby who was turning 1 year old. The theme was kittens, butterflies and flowers because that's what my baby likes the most. And the truth was it was the most beautiful and exquisite. I highly recommend it.“
“Love that you can sample!First time ordering, everyone was very nice and kind.Got a quart of Oreo and it was really good.A unique ice cream for sure, in the best of ways.Very light (as in not super dense), sort of as if you were to take a McDonald’s soft serve and level it up a bunch, mixed with if you tried to make ice cream out of freezing whipped cream.Will be coming back ?Dietary restrictions: They have 1-2 vegan options which is nice“
“I was desperately looking for a place to order some cookies for my son's school Christmas party. We needed large gingerbread shaped cookies for decorating. But I needed mine to be eggless bc of his egg allergy. Everyone I called said I needed to order a week in advance. Gladis not only made themonly a day in advance, but she adjusted the ingredients to make them eggless!! They came out beautifully and everyone loved them! I had a taste and think they actually taste better than the normal cookies with egg. I will 1000% will be placing many more orders with her. She was quite literally an answered prayer. 10/10 would recommend!“
“Small parking lot, but really amazing, and rich Death By Chocolate on a waffle cone. Got a small for under $8. The Death By Chocolate has this rich dark chocolate taste, ice cream has a nice texture where it is thick, and has a nice crunch from the nuts in Death by Chocolate. Service was quick and friendly. They have rewards to sign up for if you visit often.“
“It's been open for 2 years. The level of detail is artistic. She has a book of all the cakes she and the other woman who owns the place. I bought brownies and a bar that was like a pecan pie.Parking: lots of stores, big parking lotWheelchair accessibility: I have a large wallet and had no problem. You can look at the displays but the folks who work there are behind high counters. Don't let that deter you!“
“Review is based off their Three Kings Bread. We arrived the day of Three Kings Day and they had more than plenty of breads in a fairly large and extra large size. They were kind with their service, and accept either cash or zelle for payment. The bread is probably the best "pan de Reyes" we have had to date. It was very soft, fragrant (not in a bad way but a hint enough to taste the yummy spices in their bread), the fruit decor also was soft and delicious.“
“Thanks to Bani’s bakery for a beautiful and yummy, moist cake for my son’s birthday. My son requested for the “ Stinky and Dirty Show” bday cake which i looked up everywhere I couldn’t find much ideas. Just asked Bani and told her which cake he liked and we got this awesome cake. All my boys love every single details and tasting of the cake (mixed berries with raspberries mousses filling = perfect pairing). Thanks Bani for full filling his request for this Quarantined 6th birthday. We are always happy and love your art work.“
“BEST ICE CREAM EVER!!! This Cold Stone location is great, the staff is very kind and the ice cream was delicious, so many flavors and toppings to choose from. I dropped some of my ice cream on the floor. The flavor was so good I could not help to waste it, so I literally licked it off the floor. The woman working was so kind and had no judgement behind her eyes after I completed this action. This location was extremely clean as well, this is also why I had the confidence to lick my ice cream off the floor. This cream was SO yummy! I would recommend Cold Stone ice cream to any, and everyone!“
“Dien from Sweet Deetails helped make the cake, cake bars, and custom sugar cookies for my sis's bday and they were a hit! They were beautiful and made the dessert table stunning.Dien is a true artist, a creative at heart, and very busy, but also easy to work with. She did an amazing job with the cake bars and sugar cookie colors and artwork.One thing that wows me about Dien is her attention to the small details and her overall artistic vision. You can tell her the direction you want to take, provide some inspiration photos, details about colors and key elements, and somehow she comes back with an interesting sketch.She can make your vision come to life.Dien has such pride and ownership in what she does that she'll even make small suggestions that improve the overall piece.1 four-inch cake1 dozen custom sugar cookies (red & white)1 dozen custom cake bars (flowers)All her goodies look professionally baked and uniform which makes for a good setup and photo!We also have went into her shop and bought her cupcakes as well. They're delicious!I personally loved the cake bars.Beautifully doneDeliciousProfessionalLocalDeliversOur family uses Dien for all extra special events. Book well in advance, this business will deliver! (Both in expectations and to your house haha)My family loves the custom cookies, cupcakes, and cake bars.The only improvements I could think of may be personal preference, but I've always felt the cake is a bit dense. I suspect it may make it more structurally sound especially for tall or multi-tier cakes, but I have a biased love for soft, moist, airy cakes.I also know the team is masterful with fondant, but if you wanted something to be specifically buttercream instead, make sure to specify and to see if it's possible.“
“I called 5 minutes before they closed the day before Easter and they made me the perfect cake for my son's second birthday within 3 days. I was able to pick it up Tuesday morning and it was perfect. Thank you thank you my son LOVED his cake and is still talking about it. I asked what his favorite thing about our California vacation was and he said his "cars cake!" ❤❤❤“
“I ordered this for my sons bday it was a last minute so just took what they had. The lady that help me on the phone was really nice I asked a lot of questions and she was able to answer. she put my order on the side and in the box so i could just pick it up. You need to pay over the phone if you need to pick up. It was actually delicious it was our first time trying this and will order again soonIns“
“It's such a joy to find friendly people that do great work. First time getting my cake at Calico and I absolutely loved it ! It was made so delicately, made us not want to eat it, but glad we did because the inside was just as perfect! Taste fresh and so yummy. Thank you for making an amazing cake!“
“What a wonderful bakery! I needed a last minute birthday cake and the staff here was so incredibly helpful and made us the exact cake we needed in time for the party, plus matching macarons. We will definitely be back everyone loved the desserts.“
“Every kind of dessert and cake and baklava and beautifully laminated, buttery pastry. I don't understand how such an unassuming, mid-range-priced mom and pop shop is able to have such a wide variety, and with each individual item seeming like it's gotta be the one famous item everyone flocks to the bakery for. With its Arabic and French pastry fusion, my headcannon is that an Arabic family graduated France's most prestigious pastry school and then opened shop here.We got one of every kind of baklava. They're all somewhat similar in flavor, but a completely different textural experience . Crunchy/tender, flaky/moist, pillowy/dense. A lot of them start out with a satisfying crunch and then just turn to butter in your mouth. A freakin festival of culinary textures. They were sweet, but not too sweet, nutty, caramely, brown sugar-y and perfect.The thing we actually went for was the dark chocolate cake which, unsurprisingly, was phenomenal. Deep chocolate flavor, moist, not too sweet, and some sort of aromatic or subtle flavor that I couldn't place but that I really liked. Rose water? Bergamot? I don't know but I would love another slice.A lovely gentleman with the jawline of Henry Cavil helped us, was super kind, and just seemed like he genuinely enjoyed his job. Be warned ladies, you might show up for the sweets but stay for the eye candy...“
“The best mexican pan dulce around town. I'm pretty particular about the flavors and texture of mexican bread. This place has got it down packed!! And the prices are lower than most bakeries in the area. A true gem I went home and made some mexican hot chocolate with my favorite- chocolate Rey Amargo, and the pairing was excellent. So glad I found this place.“
“If you're a desert lover like myself, and you're looking for a good cake or slices at that point, then you're missing out if you don't come to SusieCakes to get yourself some of this goodness. This place rocks.!!! service is always good, the people that work there are super friendly, and the place is spotless on top of all that.Now onto the cakes, in my opinion, these things are absolutely perfect. They're rich decadent, and I'm telling you one slice of this cake is enough for two servings easily but I do like to buy the full cake there and I'm telling you it feels like this thing weighs about 10 pounds, yes it is a little bit more pricier than some of the other bakeries in town but 100% you get what you pay forThe red velvet is the best in the business, the chocolate cake is also fire, and if you want something a little old school go with the carrot cake. I feel like the cupcakes and be a little dry at times but I've never had a problem with the cakes or the slices always moist and delicious.They do an excellent job of decorating and you can also order online, which is a bonus I've got a mini Nixon cake from this place and never have been disappointed. Don't walk ,RUN to Susie cakes to get yourself a delicious cake for any occasion.“
“I always enjoy Noelle's service. She is very upbeat and kind and patient, even when the kids want to sample everything before they orderKid-friendliness: Very patient attendants, super friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Marker spaces and ramps“
“I work up the street at Haros Barbershop and I needed a cake for my mom’s Birthday. Honestly hands down the best cakes in South Gate ! Even after a few days in the fridge it taste fresh and fluffy and their cream is amazing ! Please check them out ! Red velvet and Tres leches taste absolutely amazing !“
“I go here all the time and the girls are lovely and helpful. Sometimes some customers are really rude to them but they still serve them with a smile. Sometimes we forget that customer service is hard especially when treated that way. So I appreciate each one of them for doing a good job.“
“Deco Facil is my absolute go-to bakery for all of my custom cakes and desserts! They always go above and beyond and make the most awesome cakes that are tasty and creative. I can always trust in them to recreate the most beautiful cakes and they even offer delivery with a reasonable fee! Thank you, Miguel, and Deco Facil for always giving the best customer service!“
“I ordered the most amazing heart shaped birthday cake. Beautiful and yummy. I bought the largest one ( for 10-12 ppl) and could easily feed 15 people. They have excellent customer service and made sure I was able to make the changes needed to the cake.“
“Zaid and Jasmine are INCREDIBLE!They were extremely helpful and patient with all my questions and concerns. If I ever need a cake made this will be my new "GO-TO" spot and recommending to EVERYONE.THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH AGAIN!!!!!!“
“My girlfriend and I went since I got a birthday BOGO and it was great. I got banana ice cream with Oreo pans peanut butter cups mixed in with a chocolate dipped waffle cone with nuts. It was magical and my girlfriend got their Mud pie signature ice cream. There wasn't much of a line and we were served quickly and she was patient while I went back and forth about what I wanted. Over all it was a great experience and the ice cream was so creamy and amazing. I will surely be back. Even my cat was trying to get a taste once we got back in the car with him lol:“
“Went out for a long bike ride with the kid and this was a great place to take a break. Service was great. They always have the flavors we want. The lemon sorbet I had was perfect on this hot day. My son went with a peanut butter/chocolate shake.“
“Helpful service, good suggestions to pick up a cake that can't fit in one's freezer. But opted for two smaller cakes. Our party was Very satisfied with mint chocolate ice cream/chocolate cake & cookies n cream ice cream cake. Yummy!“
“I used to go the the Yorktown & brookhurst BR, now I'm a customer at this location because of the service and the proper amount of ice cream serving you get. They are fast, yet attentive. They don't rush your order or ice cream experience. The lady in charge reminds me of the old school ice cream B&R. She makes you feel welcome and gives you a big scoop. She asks if there is anything else you would like to order, but asks in a non rushing way. Thank you for reminding me of the old 31 flavors welcoming ice cream experience I used to get as a kid!“
“I simply cannot contain myself about how awesome this Cold Stone is because the staff has made this my favorite ice cream establishment! From the moment I step through the doors, I am greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere and the tantalizing aroma of freshly made waffle cones.The extensive menu at Cold Stone never fails to amaze me. They offer a plethora of unique and mouthwatering ice cream flavors, ranging from classics like Cookies and Cream to innovative creations like Birthday Cake Remix. The best part is that you can customize your treat to perfection by adding mix-ins of your choice. Whether it's Oreos, brownie chunks, or fresh fruit, the possibilities are endless!But it's not just the exceptional ice cream that makes Cold Stone stand out--it's the incredible staff. The employees at this location are not only friendly but also incredibly skilled at their craft. They possess an infectious enthusiasm as they skillfully mix and blend the ice cream on the iconic frozen granite slab. Their showmanship and dedication to creating the perfect ice cream experience are truly remarkable.The quality and freshness of the ingredients used at Cold Stone are undeniable. Every scoop is a creamy, heavenly delight that is consistently rich in flavor and smooth in texture. The attention to detail in crafting each scoop is evident, and it's apparent that they take pride in their work.Thank you HB Cold Stone and Manager!!“
“I was there with my kids. Employees are so patient and very kind . They listened them and gave them samples. We felt like we re at our home . Thanks again for a great service we also bought my daughter unicorn birthday cake thanks again for the free candles ??“
“I came here for the strawberry passion cake for a birthday. They has the different cakes inside a freezer where you can pick what kind of cake you wanted. They also offered different sizes. I picked my cake and paid. It was quick and the cashier was friendly.“
“My family and I love going here for a tasty ice cream treat ? the Graham Central Station ice cream flavor is our absolute favorite!! Can't find anything like it anywhere but Bruster's!Also the employees were so friendly and cheerful as well.“
“I don’t know what happened to other customers but I always have good experience with this shop. They always made good tasteful cake with beautiful decorations for me. My wedding cake was perfect, taste and look. Then later on I ordered burnaway BD cake for my friend and it was perfect too. They always responded to me on text or call. They are busy at the store sometimes I do need to wait to talk to them but it’s because there are other customers too.“
“On our route to LAX, we thought, why not spice up the journey with a bit of ice cream before we head back to Texas. Kelly serviced us. She was super friendly and offered us top-tier service that I still can't stop raving about. Much better than what we experienced at DISNEYLAND!!! It being our first time there, Kelly was patient enough to walk us through the whole process and boy, was it an experience! She even took time to help our little ones who were having quite the hard time deciding what flavors they wanted. Kelly must've explained each flavor at least twice - talk about patience! Now, I can't help but feel astounded by Kelly's exceptional service. The portion was also a very generous amount!!! What a superstar!“
“Ice cream with extras on demand! What else could you ask for? It's a neighborhood shop. Pretty quick service depending on how hot it is outside. Courteous counter help. There are a few seats inside and out. There's a gym across the parking lot if you have post-dessert guilt...We like it. The ice cream that is. Not so much the gym“
