Best croissants, chocolate cake, gluten- free cheesecake, gluten-free pear cake, perfect hot chocolate and lattes. Great staff and very nice owner. This is now my regular bakery and drinks. I go at least 2-3 times a week. The BEST!!!!!
I visited this place for the first time this past weekend, and it was an amazing experience! They have some of the best French pastries in Orange County.

Finally. A proper bakery that doesn’t serve crappy pastries that are overly sweet or taste like cardboard.
Goods are freshly baked and the croissants are to die for. There’s a wide variety, and everything looked so good it was hard to pick.

Diotima Bakehouse offers delicious pastries and high-quality goods made by a skilled pastry chef trained in France. The owner greets customers warmly, and the syrups are homemade and not too sweet. The bakery's offerings include innovative recipes that change regularly, such as the Cup of Joy latte. The pastries are super fresh, perfectly flaky, and have just the right amount of sweetness. Customers can really taste the quality and care put into each pastry, including favorites like the croissant, chocolate bread, custard-filled kouign amann, and basque cheesecake. The shop is small and quiet but can get crowded quickly because of its popularity and cozy, inviting vibe. Located centrally in Mission Viejo, the only downside is that they are not open every day. Visitors often find that the owner and staff love what they do and their community, making each visit special. Parking can be limited, and there might be a line, but the delicious pastries, cookies, and cakes are worth the wait. Popular items include the pain cookie, Korean salt bread, and mixed berry custard tart, with the pain cookie being a standout for many. Customers who enjoy pastries will find this bakery a must-visit, and many plan to return whenever they are in the area.
