Cinderella Bakery is such a delightful find! Their pastries are fresh, flaky, and full of authentic Russian flavor—especially the piroshki and honey cake, which are absolutely must-tries. The bakery has a cozy, nostalgic feel, and everything is made with care. You can taste the tradition in every bite. Whether you’re grabbing a quick treat or sitting down for a casual meal, this place never disappoints.

Very popular place!! I was told by my client to get the dumpling soup, it's delicious! Dumplings stuffed with pork and beef, with sour cream. I added extra chicken broth and had them fry the won tons (I think I enjoyed the soup better without them frying - tried both ways!).

I was recommended by a friend to come here. We ordered the classic borscht soup, piroshki, napoleon cake, and honey cake.
All are sooo good! I have to come again for other flavors of piroshki!
