“I was fortunate enough to find Sepideh and her wonderful little shop and asked if she could make a special, custom cake for my wife's birthday. The process was fun and exciting. Sharing ideas and ultimately coming up with a cake that exceeded my wildest expectations! It was a huge hit and was simply a wonderful and fun thing to do. Also, it tasted great! Thank you so much for making everything so special. I will definitely be coming back soon!“

“This was a much smaller location comparing to the one on El Camino Real. There were 3-4 tables outside in its patio. Pastries and cakes were limited and sold out quickly. But, it’s available food looked as great as the one on El Camino Real😋😋😋. Unfortunately, our English breakfast tea was too much milk and not hot enough😓😓. We enjoyed its honey croissant and Mango croissant.“

“I stopped here this morning just to get some GF food. I have never been here before and heard about it from a coworker and wanted to try it.
The bakery is inside of the Polenteria restaurant (see pic for guidance to the entrance). The closest parking is the lot surrounding Victory Lane. I was able to find a spot when I arrived around 11 am Thursday even though it was fairly full.
I checked the restaurants menu when I got home and found out it had an 'entire gluten free Italian menu'. Now I have to go back for dinner sometime.
I got a 3 pack of Jalapeno bagels for $12, 2 large cookies at $5 each, and a brownie for $9. It was pricier than another GF bakery I had recently visited in another town.“

“This place is like a second home! When ever I get the chance, this is my favorite stop. Amazing Bundt Cakes!“

“The best part of Los Gatos. I miss you every day, 24-hour Safeway.

I have many of my fondest memories here. 3am visits. Running into people from high school. Playing Monopoly with a friend by the elevators.

Thanks for your accessibility with food and alcohol many years ago, when I was a troubled teenager.

I won't forget you or your unlocked side door.“

“Haven’t had the desserts yet, but I loved the whole wheat and Lepain loaves. Nice that they will slice the loaves for you if you like!“

“Yummy cookies. Thank you!“

“the best of best good food and sweet 🎂🎂🎂“

“The best cookies I’ve had in a while. I don’t have much of a sweet tooth but these are so so good! I love the new variety of flavors every week and how they’re so unique and different than the generic cookies you buy in the grocery store. The price isn’t too bad either! For a box of 6 cookies it’s $22 but the cookies are HUGE. I can never finish one by myself so I leave them to the rest of my family. Also pro tip download the crumble app so you can earn free rewards. 100 points equals to $10 you can use towards the cookies.“

“This particular branch is located inside Mitsuwa; to the left when you walk in...past Hokkaido Ramen Santouka. They do a great job with the Mochi Donuts here. The Mochi Cupcakes are also very good. While this isn't a standalone venue, the menu here seems to be expanding frequently. In addition to their standard Mochi Donuts they keep adding new items. Not that I'm complaining...just an observation. Actually I'm ecstatic! I haven't seen some of these creative new items before. #Sugar ~ Matcha Mochisada - 5/5 These were amazing. Not too sweet or bitter, perfectly balanced Matcha cream on the inside. ~ Mochi Cupcake Black Sesame - 4/5 Excellent flavor. Not too sweet or bitter and the texture is spot on; delightfully chewy without being too dry. I prefer the Cupcakes over the donuts, better texture for me. ~ Matcha BRIOCHE - 4/5 Another brilliant creation. Mochi Brioche with Matcha cream filling. Delish! Can't wait to see what else they're going to come up with.“

“100% recommended!! 🤩 warm, chewy delicious ✨“

“Every time I visit GK Pastry in Mountain View, I usually get the jalapeño cheddar bread (so satisfyingly good, toasted or not), but this time I tried the tomato cheddar bread—crunchy exterior, soft and chewy interior. Awesome toasted. My other go-to is the chocolate jar cake. The chocolate they use is delicious, not too sweet. This time I had the mixberry jar cake. A nice, change-up. Never disappointed. Definitely try and support this local bakery! They opened a new location in Los Altos, too.“

“The strawberry cake was delicious!“

“Thanks Charlie for donating your yummy cheesecake bites for St Catherine’s 7th grade class fundraiser towards their Washington DC trip.“

“Went here based on the reviews and I’m so glad I did! The storefront is small and unassuming with a no-fuss setup so the focus is entirely on the fantastic pastries. The danish of the day was strawberry passionfruit and oh my goodness, I wish I had gotten two! Highly recommend stopping in if you’re in the area!“

“We were in town to get a present and of course we had to stop and get a box of our goodies we used to get every Friday. Great that you can now order before coming into town. Always really good“

“I was very charmed by this local donut spot. It is an older establishment (so a little run down which honestly just added to the whole experience for me) but very affordable and clean. Good donuts (very generous raspberry filling), tasty breakfast sandwich, hot diner coffee, the sweetest lady behind the counter, and regulars who were happy to see each other.“

“Bday party,ordered chicken 65,Gobi Manchurian,chicken Biryani,noodles,masala chicken sandwich.Kids Best part of cakes,Matcha,lychee,Oreo boba drinks and coffee.must try f.fries!Food n Service 5/5“

“Cero worked with me from “afar” NC! He was patient and kind. He delivered exactly what we wanted for my brother’s retirement party. Highly recommend! S Jones North Carolina“

“If I lived in San Jose I would be here once a week. Everything I sampled was absolutely amazing. The milkbread, the egg sandwich, the ube scone, everything. Service is prompt and friendly, and the ambience is with just the right amount of bustle (at least at 9 a.m. on a Friday). Highly recommend!“

“Great taste and lots of wonderful pan dulce options! Pavo Torta! delish!“

“Absolutely loved the cake! The design was elegant, clean, and exactly what we wanted — even better than expected. The attention to detail, the smooth finish, and the overall presentation were perfect for a special celebration.

Taste was just as good as the look — fresh, balanced, and not overly sweet. You can truly see the care and craftsmanship that went into it.

Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a beautiful, premium cake that makes your occasion feel special. Will definitely come back again!“

“I’ve been wanting to try the viral Dubai chocolate chewy cookie and was pleasantly surprised to find out I didn’t have to drive all the way to the city for it! They limit 2 per customer on weekends which I appreciate. It was soft and chewy on the outside but crunchy, nutty, and sweet on the inside. The other pastries looked amazing too but I didn’t get to try them. Wish there was more seating/cozier cafe ambiance. I will be back to try the madeleines!“

“I realized that I haven't written a Google review for The Celtic Tea Shoppe yet. I went to there today and I was glad that they're open. The day before, they were closed due to a family emergency. The owners are wonderful people. I got a Scotch Whisky Fudge for my sister. I also got Salted Caramel Corn, Ginger Newts, pumpkin pasty, and two apple pasties. All of which that I love to get. I have never tried soda bread before so I'll get that next time. I'll be going there again soon.“

“Love these cookies
They are delicious and the owner takes special care to R&D all the flavors. Cookies taste amazing and freeze well. So when I make special trip down I get a bunch cut them in half and freeze them for when I want a sweet treat. They are big so it's perfect for sharing! Good for parties too“

“Fresh and fabulous ❣️ Worth the wait, for sure😋“

“Felt like home. The owners and works were very kind and the food was really good!
I had a torta de papas with chorizo and I got a Mazapán latte and both were fantastic! Everything on the torta was homemade, really fresh, and really good! 10/10 really recommend. Also their pumpkin empanada was perfect amount of sweetness.“

“Omg! The Yummiest Empanadas I’ve tasted. It’s a perfectly baked flakey perfect every bite. I can’t wait to go back for more!“

“amazing classes, friendly instructors with a lot of patients... and their products are great, easy baking instructions and their cakes that you buy to make at home Amazing!“

“bought a cinnamon roll at Nordstrom, Doughy and tasted like chemicals. the worst I've ever had and it cost 8 dollars!“

“i was craving a torta and decided to give this local eat a chance. i got 4 pan dulces, 2 drinks and 2 tortas all for 38$. the service was very fast and the tortas were very delicious. they truly don't skimp out on anything. def worth trying“

“Friendly staff and great breakfast burritos“

“I've never actually been to the physical store but I've had their cake a few times from friends or relatives for special occasions. Classic asian style cream cakes that are moist and not too sweet which I love. Their cheesecake(?) was really rich and tasty and I also loved their Christmas chocolate matcha strawberry cream cake!“

“I ordered a 4 tier cake for my wedding. I asked if they would be able to do the old vintage cake designs. I was told yes. I sent several detailed emails and pictures of what I wanted. The cake was NOTHING close in design, outside of 4 levels, nothing else looked like the pictures. Only one of the colors, only a couple flowers. Then, 1 hour into the reception the cake fell over. I never even got to cut my 4 tiered cake! When I brought it up after, she blamed the heat. There was air conditioning in the venue! She offered to redo it for pictures. I agreed then never heard from her. I contacted her multiple times and I just today get an email from her saying she can't do that after all. I lost money, had a mediocre cake that looked nothing like the inspo picture I sent, and had my cake fall over and barely salvaged enough for the guests. This is a horrible business who doesn't care about making a cake for something as important as a wedding. My dream cake was ruined. I should've gone with someone else. What a horrible bakery. Liars and unprofessional. If you don't know how to do vintage designs don't sat you do! And do not offer a remake if you don't mean it! If you're looking for a multi tiered wedding cake, do not use them!“

“I had to wait in line but anyway, the people who serve you are very friendly and the bread is freshly made...I love the bolillos 🙂

Parking: It is difficult to find parking since the businesses are next door and it is always full there.“

“Adorable little café with amazing coffee and pastries! The cappuccino was perfect, and the croissant tasted fresh out of the oven. Super cozy atmosphere and kind staff. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Mrs. Fields in Valley Fair is elite. Cookies are perfect. Soft, chewy, and just baked to perfection. The gentlemen who served the cookies was friendly, which we appreciated. Sidenote, shame on you heathens leaving one star reviews — there is only one Mrs. Fields located in the San Jose area and you want to shut it down because they didn’t give you milk? Give me a break. Anyone leaving a one star review, just don’t. Because I like eating here. And I don’t want to drive 30 gosh darn minutes to the next closest one. Sheila Washington, who left the one star review below me, can safely be ignored. She must be the Cookie Monster. Anyways, eat cookies from here and support the business.“

“Very yummy creations! The Mango Mouse cake tasted amazing. I can tell they use a lot of real mangos for the flavor to come through :) the textures of the cake were so fun too since it’s a mix of creamy and crunchy. I also love how adventurous they are with their drinks! Haven’t tried their macarons yet (their staples) but I’m sure they are divine. I can tell the owner cares a lot about the product and customer experience. There are some tables inside if you want to eat and chill. I will definitely continue to support this local bakery!“

“Paris Avenue is a delightful bakery with a cozy French atmosphere. We stopped by and tried the veggie quiche, which was flavorful and perfectly baked, along with a pastry that was light and delicious. The service was quick, making for a pleasant experience. I’d love to come again to try their cakes, which looked tempting. A great spot for a quick bite or a sweet treat!“

“The best cookies I've ever had! We had a special delivery sent to us and they were still hot! The Chocolate Chip with Sea Salt? Ya, crazy good! I will definitely think of Nox to surprise someone :)“

“Love everything about this place“

“Great pastry, customer service is also great.“

“Good pastry, good service. Very busy especially around Persian new year.“

“Necesitas un Pan Dulce fix in Campbell? Been wanting a freshly made Torta? This is the spot! It's that classic hole in the wall business that hooks you up with what you been craving. I been going outside of Campbell to get Pan Dulce for years, and this whole time this business has been behind the Burger King at Winchester and Hamilton. I'm not writing to be tripping off the price of anything. I'm here to confirm the Pan Dulce is great, and that Carne Asada Torta hits the spot! They even sell some full on Cakes that would be perfect for birthday or celebration. Check it out. And don't take all the Maranitos ay. Save me some!“

“I've bought all of my family birthday cakes from this location for the last several years. I love this location. They always get my order right, fresh every time, very clean environment. I've never had a bad experience and I've been here dozens of times.“

“Iced coffee has a good bold flavor.
Le sultan cake is nice, not too sweet and a blend of smooth and crunchy.

They have a lot of shaded outdoor seating.

Update Jan 2026: Went more recently and didn't like the caramel chocolate mousse one. It seemed like it was starting to become stale. And the ice coffee was soso as well.“
