Tried takeout from Ms. Sweets Decadent Desserts tonight, and while there were some highlights, it wasn't a completely satisfying experience. The decaf vanilla latte hit the mark, and the regular drip coffee was decent, although a bit more creamer would have been appreciated.Now, onto the desserts – a mixed bag. The flourless chocolate cake was just okay, slightly elevated when paired with the provided berries. However, the smaller-than-expected portions, especially considering the price point (each over ten dollars), left a bit to be desired. Unfortunately, the bread pudding fell short of expectations, leaning towards the dry side when the anticipation was for a rich, gooey texture.Despite the hiccups, Ms. Sweets still offers a variety of tempting desserts. Perhaps there's room for improvement, particularly in portion sizes and ensuring the bread pudding lives up to its decadent reputation.Dietary restrictions: Non-dairy creamers are offered as well as artificial sweeteners.

Had a late night dessert craving and this place looked promising. I'm so grateful for the other reviewer who mentioned that it's located inside the Medici pizza parlor, otherwise we never would have found it!We did the 2-dessert package and ordered the lemon chiffon cake and the tuxedo mousse cake. The presentation, even inside the takeout boxes, is pleasant, but it is obvious that these are slices from frozen desserts and not fresh made. I had hoped for a local bakery treat, but oh well.The mousse had a lovely chocolate flavor with a nice caramel note, but the dark chocolate doesn't really come through, and the cake layers were a bit stale (likely as a result of having been frozen). The lemon cake was a much nicer texture. Exactly what I would expect from a lemon chiffon cake. The fresh berries on both were delightful and the perfect addition.

We were there in a family vacation in July for two days and right across the hotel was this restaurant.. The crepes were amazing and in addition ont of the best hot chocolates I had had.. Loved it so much that I had crepes twice in the day and 4 hot chocolates during our two day stay. The service is excellent. Very friendly .

Coming straight off the harbour I thought this may be an expensive tourist trap, but instead ended up being one of the nicest things I’ve ever eaten! My son had a Nutella and strawberry crepe which was awesome, and I had the savoury egg, ham and cheese option and it was unbelievably tasty. Great coffee too to accompany our crepes, I can’t recommend this place highly enough…double delicious!! ?

A great breakfast option, with a variety of sweet and savoury crepes. Would recommend the Nutella and strawberry crepe, a nice sweet option to start the day. Gluten free crepes available. Service was quick and the cashier was friendly and talkative. Would recommend.

Wish I could give zero stars…ordered from here on Uber Eats. Nothing came as described and everything was frozen…my “three layer gourmet carrot cake” was as pictured. With random nuts thrown in the box..? For $12, this is disgusting and disappointing. Laughable, really. For $12 I should’ve just made it at home but it was late and I’m not feeling well and we wanted dessert to raise the spirits. This is NOT it.

This was so disappointing. The line was long so you can’t help but think this must be a great restaurant, nope ? we had the ham and cheese crepes and it was dry and over cooked. No flavor whatsoever. To be fair, maybe they were overwhelmed with the large crowd they had that weekend.??♀️

Wonderful spot in Monterey. The food was excellent and fresh. Loved it and we will be back again.

My husband ordered me red velvet cupcakes from here. I was not a fan at all. Their red velvet cake was much better but definitely not worth the price. I would recommend walking across the street to Rosine's if you want delicious cake or Angelina's bakery in Monterey for cupcakes/cakes.

Self serve crepes. Good variety of savory and sweet options. You can also make your own combination. Very tasty crepes. Would recommend for a good fast breakfast.
The crepes and galettes are good. The crepes here are actual crepes, made from a French recipe. Homemade whiped cream, and the crepes are made to order. They add 3 1/2% if you use a credit card! Had I known this prior to walking in I would've gone elsewhere for similar quality without the surcharge.

My husband and I love coming here when we visit Monterey! The savory crepes are delicious, and always nice to sit out in the sun and enjoy them.

Delicious breakfast and even better flat white! We so enjoyed eating here! It is located close to the Wharf with cute shops and site seeing opportunities.

After walking past this two days in a row, we decided to forego our free hotel breakfast to give this a try. Well worth it!! The service was fantastic - quick and friendly. The crepes were delicious. The orange juice is freshly squeezed right in the restaurant. All four of us wished we had tried this sooner!!

We ordered the carrot cake and churros and really enjoyed them. We found both to be fresh and match the menu photos. I would order from here again.
