“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“Family-run! Father cooks while daughter is front of house — love to see it! Their focaccia is so good, and the Daviola pizza was awesome too. The dough was airy and light while the meat was super juicy. Service was excellent: they really take care of you there. They really pay attention 💕“

“Patty's was very communicative and responded quickly to our emails about our wedding cake. They made a cake exactly to our specifications and it tasted divine! We got the banana cake with guava filling and cream cheese frosting, and we got so many compliments on the taste. I applaud Patty's and can't wait to eat more of the leftovers :)“

“Delicious vegan pan dulce! Super nice people too. I highly recommend Soy Concha!“

“Ordered for the first time from this bakery. We ordered two days ahead got the Funfetti Cake 8” (square) for a Toddler Birthday and it was superb! Soft and moist and the right amount of sweetness. All my guests loved it. They wanted seconds. It was truly delightful.“

“Best egg tart & po tart ever! We saw the TV channel introduced this store, went in on weekday morning to avoid the crowds, the egg tart was so good, po tart has more flavor but I like both 😋 recommend eating right away while it’s warm! Definitely will be back.“

“I haven't been here for years to decided to go today. The bread was good , but I have to say this and i'm being honest tomales were horrible the maza was sour and not even that much chicken or pork
Not even worth the price
I remember years ago, it was really good. That's why I went back when I came into town now. I regret it.
The bread was pretty good.\nThat's about it“

“10 out of 10 the lemon poppy seed cinnamon roll. Man oh man. Chefs kiss. I’m not big on matcha but I saw the owner making a strawberry one and I said I’ll give it a shot. Probably one of the best I’ve had. I also got the cornbread cookie and red velvet cookie. Both very good. I wanted the banana pudding but that would’ve been doing too much. Lol Service was amazing, all the ladies inside were attentive, supportive and sweet. There was a line outside to door. I waited no more than 5-6 min. That included wait time, placing ordering and getting my food. I highly recommend.“

“Nice little cafe with a small menu and tasty“

“I had a problem with a product and call them up and they took care of it right away . They customer service.is great.“

“This is my favorite place to get cookies from! Every visit is a great experience, the cookies are always fresh, delicious, and consistently hit the spot. On top of that, the customer service is always amazing. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel valued every time you walk in. It’s definitely my go-to spot whenever I’m craving something sweet!“

“Featured in the The Donut King 🫶🫶🫶 @bcdonuts_pasadena this donut shop founded in 1987 represents the legacy of Cambodian representation in the donut scene in SoCal today!

Great people, great food, great drinks! A local favorite as evidenced by the ongoing traffic and first name accounts!

Go support them!!! Their breakfast options and drinks are also solid 🩵👌“

“Visited for the first time here but seems like we went on a day where a run club was meeting up so it was super busy. Not much parking in the lot as it shares space with other companies in that plaza, but the quality of coffee and bakery items make it definitely worth it. Delicious stuff here indeed.“

“had a wonderful experience at Red Ribbon! The food was delicious. I especially enjoyed their cakes because they were flavorful and satisfying. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service throughout my visit. The restaurant was clean, organized, and had a comfortable atmosphere that made dining enjoyable. Will definitely comeback.“

“I'm legally blind and I was actually there to visit my cardiologist roughly 6 minute walking distance on the other end of 1st Street. I got myself into a dilemma by buying two dozen of egg tarts which comes in two large pizza size boxes. The young lady who helped me at the store first told me they don't have such a big bag for those boxes, but she obviously considered my convenience so she went to the bag and dig out a large size shopping bag. I guess you can tell how appreciative I was even though those boxes have to go in sideway anyway... It still helped me to hold those boxes in one hand and my white cane on the other.“

“Went in to get some bread baguette's & bolio for my mom I ended up trying there egg rolls & they had a pork belly spring roll it was so Delicious I had the banh mi pork belly sandwich to die for the bread was just made hot from the oven everything was fresh excellent.“

“The bakery and tamales are delicious!!!“

“If this is not the best banh mi in all of Sgv and Oc, I don’t know of any place that can beat them. All cash by the way so come prepared. Their dac biet is the perfect sandwich and their daikon and carrots are light and bouncy with fresh jalapeno with the right amount of pate and butter. They have it down to perfection, nothing less. Had an open house and served it for homebuyers and they were blown away! Highly recommend! Cafe sua da is gold too, loved the shaved ice in the coffee and not too sweet. The ladies in the back are super sweet and you can buy the baguettes and freeze them, then 350 f for 6 mins in toaster or airfryer. Get the egg rolls, and pa te so is good too. My clients loved their vegetarian banh mi too!

Vegetarian options: Just get he vegetarian banh mi! Only vegetarian thing to get or just plain baguettes! It will be worth it!“

“Mom and Pop store...they make you feel like family.. Everything is cooked perfectly..arrive early....“

“I’ve been going here for 10 years. They are a small business and they nice. They always do a beautiful job with the cakes. Here is the most recent one I got. The cake flavor is also very good. I got half chocolate with banana and half vanilla with strawberries“

“Baking with Ish is one of the most beautiful additions to the SGV food scene. I’ve been coming here for over 3 years and haven’t had a single thing that isn’t a 5/5. The owners are wonderful and I can’t wait for my next trip (chicken and waffles here I come 💥).“

“Had their eggs Benedict, it was OK.
Their iced Chai tased mostly like cinnamon water.
Their almond croissant was decent.
All that with tip was $60 for breakfast.
I can think of MANY places where I could have had better breakfast food for that price.
Waitress and hostesses were on point with great service, so at least there’s that.“

“Butter Lab is a gem!!!! The desserts here are excellent. I ordered an assortment of crinkle cookies, Ube tres leches, pandan Basque cheesecake and a coffee. Staff was friendly and gave great recommendations. I can't wait to come back. My new fave spot in the SGV for desserts hands down!“

“R u Serious!!! An unbelievable flavor explosion created by the chef at SEED. Gott be the best chile relleno of my life! The chile, the cilantro, the greens a robust farm fresh egg. BAMM!!“

“just a wonderful place my favorite spot“

“Grew up going to this panaderia. I stopped going for awhile, it's been a few years. I finally went back recently. And Even better than I remember it. The delicious pan dulce, champurrado, Cinnamon tea, bollio con jalapeño & cream cheese, also with papas & chorizo, ready mady sandwiches? cant go wrong! So delicious, my kids love it from here as well! Definitely recommend!“

“Literally so delicious!!! My friend and I ordered a second round since we were blown away! We tried the Taro Salted Egg Yolk, Black Sesame Hojicha, Lemon Delight, and Rich Koyamen Matcha (the last 2 are pictured, we ate the first two before we remembered to take a photo haha). They were super nice, they cut it for us so my friend and I could try all the flavors we bought.

If I could only eat one selection of deserts for the rest of life it would definitely be from Browned.“

“This place is amazing! Great sandwiches, great service, and going on the weekend to get their cinnamon rolls is a must. Only thing to note, they close at 3pm NOT 4pm like it says on Google Maps. If you show up and it’s closed, be sure to check out all the other great things Sierra Madre has to offer!“

“Delicious. Love the variety every week.“

“The food is 5 stars the service is 5 stars I love it prices are very fsir“

“Only the best � All cakes are delicious but my favorite has to be the 3 leches and the Mango .“

“It's a great little place. Another lost gem in Los Amgeles,please check it out. I live a block away,this place has so many options. Oh and ice cream,banana splits...❤️ IT!“

“Nice clean and delicious stuff“

“Fun clean sweet smelling place that you can see them preparing scrumptious desserts. Cookie price isn't worth it. I don't think there were prices so we got 2 cookies and later realized they were about $7 each. Not worth it! Cupcakes weren't cream cheese but icing which i liked the sweetness but others didn't.“

“Pretty standard 85° competitor but I found this spot before 85° at the Arcadia mall and really enjoyed their pastries! For some reason, I feel like it's a little less memorable and maybe slightly lower quality than I remember but still pretty good for a quick pastry or slice of cake.“

“Yes I Do Recommend It 👍👍👍“

“I’ve been coming here for over 23 years, and this place has consistently been one of the best donut shops in El Monte. The donuts are always fresh and delicious, and the service is exceptional every single time. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and truly makes you feel appreciated as a customer. It’s rare to find a place that maintains such great quality and consistency for so many years. Highly recommend!“

“I needed a catering job for the entire LA County/USC ER Room medical staff and all support personnel. 150 complete box lunches and I needed them delivered to East Los Angeles by 11.30 am. This amazing staff got up at 3 am to make sure the order was there and on time. Rave reviews were emailed to me about the quality and care of the delicious care packages given to each of those important caregivers at the hospital. First rate care and preparation. They earned my business and my respect. And support our local businesses. Just like hospitals we need diners and bakeries too! Job well done Crust and Crumble! Highly recommend.“

“The scones here are so good when warmed up. Buttery and soft inside, with a crisp exterior. Not too sweet, just enjoyable. The variety of flavors is pleasing, too.

Also love that they have pairings of a hot drink with a scone/toffee—giving the people what they want!“

“clean fresh well stocked big variety“

“Me parece muy bueno el lugar muy limpio el personal muy servicial y los cinabons riquisimos“

“This weekend, at my niece’s Sweet 16 celebration, I tasted a cake that completely changed my mind about dessert. I usually hate cake—but this one? Hands down the most delicious, unforgettable slice I’ve ever had. I was so blown away, I had to ask my sister-in-law where she got it and the exact location. It was that good.“

“Thank you for the AMAZING cake!!!! 😍😍😍“
