“Best of the best! Very accommodating and easy to work with. Excellent service.“

“this place is alright, i love the crumble cookies themselves but most of the time they forget to put on all the toppings that comes with the cookie or for another instance they don’t put enough of the product, frosting etc. like the cookies they put on display.“

“I wanted to reach out and let you know how much I enjoyed my recent visit to your bakery. From the moment I walked in, I felt the warmth and charm of the space, and the scent of fresh pastries made it feel like a little slice of heaven and very less sugary. My family always complained about too much sugar in most pastries and cookies. However, now they are so happy to buy pastries and Danish here.
I especially loved the Sour Dough Baguette, and my son became a regular customer for the almond croissant and Turkish coffee. It was truly delicious, and the quality was great. The team was welcoming and attentive, making the experience all the more enjoyable.
Thank you for creating such a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy incredible treats. I'll be looking forward to my next visit!

“Wow, I just took a bite out of the guava cream cheese croissant and I’m blown away! So deliciously creamy and crispy. The guava is like a jam that is perfectly balanced (sweet, but not overly so). The croissant is both fluffy and crispy in all the right ways. The iced saffron and cardamom latte was also so good! I took a leap and tried something new and was not disappointed—in fact my expectations were fully exceeded coming to Diotima. Kian and the staff were so kind. The other customers were also so sweet. Kian is cultivating an amazing, friendly community. Next time I’ll eat in and have my coffee and baked goods because the ambiance is so wonderful. Thank you, Diotima!“

“Highly recommended especially in making a customized cake. Thank you Samira for copying everything what my grandson’s wished design. And also the cake was delicious“

“On our recent visit to Crumbl Cookies, my wife and I were treated to an exceptional experience. We decided to go for the timeless classic - chocolate chip cookies. To our delight, they were just as we hoped: warm, soft, with chocolate chips that seemed to dance on our taste buds. Paired with the cool, refreshing milk, it was a match made in heaven.But what truly set this visit apart was the service. The staff member who helped us was not only friendly but genuinely nice, making our experience even sweeter. It's rare to find a place that hits the mark on both quality treats and customer service, but Crumbl Cookies did just that.For anyone in search of delicious cookies and a welcoming smile, look no further. Crumbl Cookies won't disappoint!“

“If you have not visited this Heidelberg Pastry Shop in Laguna Hills, you are cheating yourself of a better life.“

“I love the Savour Pastry shop under the new ownership. I love the quality and taste of their products tremendously. My favorite items on the menu are Almond Croissant, Cream Broiler and Almond Cake plus all the rest of the pastry they make. I take their pastry to all my friends and to every gathering that I am invited to. I am so glad to support a local business, which is providing quality food and excellent services.“

“I love the mother and son working relationship here as well as supporting mom and pops shops altogether. They are friendly and efficient, and the food I asked for (which normally gets messed up by other shops) was on point. Two thumbs up for this place.“

“I love the taste of the cookies and how the flavors change weekly. The customer service at my location is always perfect! The only flaw about Crumbl is how the inside of the locations look like a hospital. The walls are white and they’re is just a bunch of nothingness.“

“Thank you A Little Something Sweet for baking the most beautiful cake for my sister's bridal shower! Words can't describe how happy I am with our experience with Elizabeth and her team - if I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. Everything about this bakery was perfect from start to finish. Elizabeth was super easy to work with, taking my vague ideas and inspiration photos and making something beautiful and delicious. I was blown away when I saw the final product, and all our guests kept commenting on how pretty the cake was. Not only did it look great, but the flavors Elizabeth recommended were a hit (lemon and raspberry). I am so happy I found this bakery and am excited to use them for future events. Elizabeth and her team are truly talented.“

“One of a kind!!! Not only are the designs impeccable, but the taste is out of this world. Shadi’s Sweets Studio can produce any cake you ask for. I have placed several orders and I have been beyond impressed every single time by the professionalism and high quality service. Highly recommend!“

“They did an absolutely outstanding job on a custom cake for my husbahd’s 50th birthday! I would highly recommend this place !“

“These cookies are amazing and best in Orange County. We got an assortment of 4 cookies in a bright pink box that the family loved as a desert treat after dinner. They had chocolate chip and frosting and sprinkles on their cookies.Love this place with great service as well.“

“Wonderful place in Laguna Hills. The “Taste of Persia” truly deserves it’s name because when you visit the store with the quality of their service not only you feel like you have stepped in the heart of Iran but also when you taste their bread you would completely agree with me that they absolutely have the best bread quality in Orange County. Amazing people, wonderful taste, phenomenal vibes! Thanks “Taste of Persia Bakery” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for being so great ❤️“

“Hidden Mission Viejo GEM. This bakery is exceptional. Right now the holiday cakes are here. They are expertly decorated and beyond delicious. Great pricing too. If you need to bring dessert to any party, this is the place to get it. (Try the chocolate tres leche banana cake or baklava cheesecakes)“

“My first love is ice cream.. but key lime pie is my second. And how amazing to find a key lime pie that's like a combo of the two!! Perfectly sweet with just the the amount of tang, and a cool firm texture that will actually amaze you on the first bite. And that doesn't even mention their cookies... of almost every type. My 6-yr-old will forego any other dessert for their cookies. And, frankly, they have the best fruit pies around. The crust, the filling... these people care about every last detail. Go get one.

Kid-friendliness: Best cookies ever.“

“Wonderful staff/owner. Very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable staff.My last visit included a very rude woman with no manners cutting off everyone in front of her. Owner handled it extremely well and told her she would have to wait and she became visibly angry and slammed the door on the way out of the store. Owner then locked the door as it was closing time so she would not come back tonight.We recommend the mini bundlets and full size cakes for all occasions. The flavors are very delicious and the prices are great.“

“I bought cookies from Whole Foods and have been searching for no-sugar sweets, so I was excited to try their Lemon Cookies, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Almond Crescent Cookies. They are a bit crumbly, soft but not hard, and not too sweet, making them a satisfying snack. I enjoyed them so much that I went back for more. I'm looking forward to trying more items from their actual bakery someday!“

“I ordered macarons for my daughter-in-law’s birthday party. Azi did an amazing job! They were absolutely delicious, and they looked beautiful. There were none left at the end of the party. I received so many compliments! I have already highly recommend Macaroonland.“

“These cookies are awesome and perfect doughy consistency. We have had their cookies a few times and love the new flavors they offer every time. We have had the cinnamon roll and the animal cracker. It’s hard not to buy all of them! Especially because you may never know when you can get it again.These are definitely fresh made cookies and we love them!“

“Wow!!!-Potato Pizza- Pepperoni Pizza- Cookies!Paul is the the man! Hospitality was dialed! Pizzas had so much flavor it reminded my girl and myself about New York pizza! He’s definitely gotta be from the east coast , because he knows how to make a pizza !20/20 recommend ! We will be back for more!ThanksJesse“

“Wonderful pastrys and bread. The staff is very nice.“

“I had been here before ..but you really need an HR or so to see all the product .. specially if you are not familiar with Persian cuisine. They have Soo many spices and so many things I've never even knew existed. Their produce had some good prices and they also have bulk items such as 40lb bags of rice and beans..flours and dried fruit. They also make bread and cakes.“

“Best place yet in California to eat other than grandma carmen's“

“I absolutely love tres leches cake, and this bakery has great quality. I went for the first time this past weekend, and I will definitely be back for their tamales, Mexican hot chocolate, and sweets. I highly recommend this place!

Vegetarian options: Pastries, tamales“

“Their pastry was beautiful with quality to match. I tried a savory stuffed croissant and a sweet one. Both were delicious.“

“Blown away by Susie Cakes! Great people, fabulous selection of cakes, cupcakes, cookies and accessories! Plus they made my poor planning and last minute need their very pleasant priority. Sweet service with a smile!!!“

“Some of the employees here are lazy and not friendly. Some are outstanding. It depends on who you get. I’ve walked in multiple times and girls are sitting around talking about life or on their phones without an acknowledgement. Then when they’re asked a question, they seem annoyed.“

“Don't miss this wonderful place. Once you try BrioBrio's delicious food, you'll regret you hadn"t discovered It before. Thanks Naoko and Ruichi for feeding our body and soul!!!“

“Never been to the actual store, we have only ordered their cup cakes through Doordash!I am actually not a huge fan of cupcakes, I rarely eat them, but I really do like the Lemon Cup Cake. The cream or frosting or whatever it is, is not over done, not overpowering the actual cup cake. It is just enough!Every time we have ordered from here, our order has been accurate. Service is quick, order ready for pick up fast.“

“I eat here often. Their sandwiches & cookies are very tasty and everyone here is always super friendly and always smiling!“

“If you are looking for the most delicious and quality Pastry Palace Bakery is the one to go, the owner Panteaa is amazing host and always make sure her guests are welcome, my favorite is the Danish and I highly recommended it, they always make it fresh and they can be gone in a blink an eye.“

“I found AWG about a month ago. I have made 3 purchases since totaling 11 loaves and I don’t foresee this stopping. This has been the only way I can enjoy roast again, which previously was my favorite go-to simple food. It’s fantastic!“

“Just stopped in for the first time and it's definitely worth a visit. Surprised by the range they offered since I had thought it'd be strictly "high end / exotic" but that's not the case at all. Really decent deals on "normal" meats and lots of choices in desserts, ready to heat sides, etc.

Quick in-and-out access/parking too. Go and try it.“

“This place has become one of my favorites. I love the muffins and the cream puffs the most for take home. All food items are tasty and the staff go above and beyond to make customers happy, which is not easy especially with a very demanding eater like me who makes a lot of modifications in my orders. We had breakfast here yesterday and I just want to say that I received one of the best customer service I ever did in a restaurant.“

“A quaint little place with some great pastries. They also have breakfast sandwiches at a great price for the amount of food you get. This is my go-to if I'm in the area and I need a tasty breakfast or brunch. I've ordered here countless times for dine-in, takeout, and Doordash delivery, and they've never gotten my order wrong. There isn't a lot of seating, but you can usually still find a table if you need one.“

“The coffee is rich and smooth, and the pastries are always fresh and delicious. The croissants are especially buttery and light. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Highly recommend for a great coffee and pastry experience!“

“very yummy and satisfying food. the staff are very friendly and helpful.“

“Great service and great donuts! Donuts were well stocked and very fresh!Stopped in at 6:20 am to buy 2 dozen donuts for a bunch of hungry teenagers and a few more for my own kids. The couple who run the shop were so friendly and kind after being up all night baking donuts and opening at 4 am. This will definitely be our go-to for donuts!“

“Always a great experience here. Staff is so polite and friendly. Food is amazing and portions always require a to go bag. Highly recommend“
