“I had such a great experience at Porto’s today thanks to Letty! She was so kind and patient while helping me decide which cold brew to get and even let me sample both options. She made me feel comfortable and welcomed, and also recommended her favorite pastry (which was delicious!). Thanks to her, I’m really looking forward to coming back to Porto’s!“

“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!"“

“Just amazing...this stuff is so beautiful I almost didn't want to eat it! But I did, haha, and it was great! I love that there is so much variety, from cookies to cakes, and the owner is such a sweet person! I'll definitely keep them in mind for my birthday when it rolls around in August. Keep up the good work!“

“Very yummy cookies! I came to grab the Olivia Rodrigo cookie, and now I want more cookies. I like how service is fast, and you can watch them make the cookies in front of you! They don’t accept cash here, by the way. They only seem to have kiosks.“

“I love that it's never super crowded when I go in, a helper/cashier always comes to greet me within a few seconds, the vibe is always nice and chill. I love the large varieties of cookies there and they're large! Every cookie and small pie has been absolutely delish! I just had a small key lime pie this past weekend that SO good!“

“This place has it going on! Terrific food and lovely atmosphere. Special shout out to Alexa and the Café. Thank you for making sure we received service. VIP @ Vanessa! ✨ She kept the dinning area clean. ✨ She checked up on us and helped take our trash. Porto’s, you have a great team. Thank you for another great experience.“

“Going local-origin for my next batch of pumpernickel bagels. Choco-latte and Nicaraguan chocolate down here are legit crazy awesome!“

“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 :)“

“recommended to me — I wasn’t disappointed. There was a bit of a line when I arrived, but it moved quickly and the staff were helpful, even with all the hustle. The ordering process was super easy, and the space felt clean and welcoming.

The cookies themselves? Genuinely excellent. Big, warm, and packed with flavour — definitely lived up to the hype. I tried a couple of the weekly specials and would’ve gone back again if I’d had more time in Downey.

Nice stop if you’re travelling and want something sweet (or very American!). Great location too — easy to find and plenty of parking nearby, but we walked as hoteled in the local area“

“Great small cake shop that has unique flavors!“

“I’ve been coming to this location for years, and it never disappoints! My mom, who never likes sweets, actually approves of their cakes—and that’s saying a lot. Both the vanilla and chocolate flavors are moist, delicious, and full of flavor—not dry at all.

The fresh fruit topping is another standout—you can choose more than one! My mom’s favorite combo is peach and strawberry. We usually go with the almond sides and ask for less filling, which they’re happy to accommodate.

These cakes are perfect for any occasion—or even just when you’re craving a good slice of cake. Speaking of which, I just found out they now sell cake by the slice (love this!), and they’ve also added fruit drinks and milk tea to their menu!

My most recent order was a cake for 25 people for only $55—absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“Home style Armenian/Middle Eastern Bakery that brings the flavors and aromas of my travels locally.“

“I visited Baking with Ish on the day I was getting ready to fly out of LAX. I had been getting instagram recommendations on my feed for a few months (even though I don’t live in CA), and I’m glad I decided to put this place on my list to check out before I left. I got the ube sesame bun and the cheese and ube pie and both of them were fantastic. I wish I lived closer so I could come back and try more items, to be honest everything on display looked unreal. Wishing the best for Ish and team, you’re making some really amazing stuff.“

“I attended a kids' birthday party and they had the most delicious cake ever. It was chocolate with a fresh strawberry center. The chocolate cake was so moist. The icing was light and delicate. This cake was talked about with everyone. We kept saying, "it's not too sweet," which is the best compliment you can say for a cake. I wasn't the one that purchased the cake but I definitely will now after this.“

“One of the best local bakery and a very friendly girl with the softest voice at the cashier. Had to wait a few more minutes in the morning due to their bakery truck barely on time, but definitely worth the time just chilling at the table inside the store, that extra 10min felt like a breeze, though a few customers came in just to leave lol Great experience there and would definitely go again, even if have to wait again :D“

“Bye far the best cakes and food not only because the owner is a dear friend of mine they are bomb. I always have been ordering with him for years that's how we became good friends he's the best and not only that the PRICES are affordable not to expensive like other or home-based... I used to live local he opened up the place when I move to lancaster and I will continue to order from him even if it's 2 hr drive... thank you oscar“

“The bakery and tamales are delicious!!!“

“The mini conchas are my favourite, I don't like conchas unless they're from this bakery. The polvorones, cinnamon raisin rolls, pink jelly coconut roll, and the mini cookies with sprinkles are my favourites here. The prices have been raised for the filled breads but it's better compared to other places. The place looks like it's kept clean and well maintained. The only bad thing about coming here are the homeless people asking for money all the time. + There's very limited parking sometimes it'll be empty and the next second it'll be full. The staff are super friendly and fast.“

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

“Best donut shop in the area, hands down.
Donuts are super light and airy, they do not live you feeling super full and they are also not super sweet. Prices are also very reasonable.
We tried the breakfast sandwiches as well which and they were super delicious and filling. If you are hungry hungry I would recommend you get one.
The thai teas are nice too, I really liked the orange one.
Staff is also super friendly and will tell you about all their menu items as well as make recommendations.
Highly recommend you go check out BC Donuts if you are in the area!“

“We needed a birthday cake on short notice, and thankfully, Patisserie Too had a 5” mango cake available. They also had a wide variety of personal size cakes in adorable animal themes (rabbit, dog, pig, penguin, and Hello Kitty). Our party really enjoyed the mango cake - it was the perfect sweetness level and full of flavor. Sweet enough to taste like a dessert but not overwhelmingly sugary. I was pleasantly surprised to find a slice of mango inside the cake. The mango texture was a fun contrast to its soft cake-y surroundings. The entire cake sat on top of a cookie base (shortbread cookie?), and the crunchiness of the cookie also enhanced the range of textures in this dessert!

The cakes were also well packaged. They taped down the personal size cakes we bought so that they wouldn’t slide around inside the box. This attention to detail and their friendly and helpful service overall made this a really pleasant shopping experience!“

“sausage rolls are amazing“

“I recommend this great Peruvian bakery it’s so special and amazing.“

“I stopped at this place every afternoon and evening time during my stay. The fruit teas are incredibly good. The Hong Kong Style was my favorite.

Also her homemade tarts were phenomenal. Got lucky and had a few different ones and each ones was wicked good. Highly recommend to anyone in the area for an afternoon drink or little sweet treat.“

“best cookies i've ever ate“

“Very cute little local dessert place. All the desserts are made fresh. My girlfriend and I were just looking for a sweet treat and found this place. We got a crème brule, a carrot cake, a macaroon and two iced teas. The iced teas are made fresh and then put over ice. They were very good. My gf got a passion fruit one and I got got mint. We would definitely come again. And the workers I think are the owners but they were super nice and even asked us to try the teas before we left to make sure we were happy with them. Would definitely come back“

“sus pasteles riquisimos y siempre muy amables para hacerle a uno sus pedidos muchas gracias“

“Sobok Sobok is a charming Korean-owned bakery and ice cream shop with a modern yet cozy atmosphere. Though the space is small, its simple design and warm ambiance create a relaxing vibe.

Breakfast Experience

I visited in the morning for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. Their Croissant Sandwich was a great choice—crispy on the outside and filled with ham, cheese, egg, and lettuce, making for a satisfying and protein-rich meal.

For my drink, I tried the Black Sesame Latte, but it was a bit disappointing. The sesame powder didn’t dissolve well into the hot milk, and no one informed me that it needed stirring, which affected the overall taste.

Environment & Amenities

There are plenty of seats, but a few downsides for those looking to work or study here:

No power sockets, which makes it inconvenient for long stays.

No WiFi, so it’s not the best place for remote work or studying.

Not dog-friendly—only service dogs are allowed, so pet owners should take note.

Final Thoughts

Sobok Sobok has potential, and with a few small improvements, it could be a fantastic go-to spot for both breakfast and dessert lovers.

While my breakfast experience was mostly enjoyable, I’d love to return to try their shaved ice and ice cream next time, as those seem to be their specialties.“

“my daughter s favorite chicken empanada is right here.“

“Wonderful, Delicious, Perfect. - One of the best birthday cakes we have had. I will go back to Patty's again and again. Customer service - horrible, rude and sarcastic. But, she wasn't the owner so, we can forgive it. Once the owner got involved, the problem was handled, we received our cake, and so glad we did. Thanks Patty's Cakes - my son-in-law was thrilled.“

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

“Coffee is always freshly brewed, Pastries are always baked and this Place even makes delicious, moist tamales. Plus the staff is friendly to all their customers.“

“Great food �“

“This establishment is Very clean & neat.
First time trying Japanese style cheesecake & Omgee it was amazing.
They had a tester one available and gosh it was amazing.
I ordered the original Japanese style cheesecake & Iced Brown Sugar latte with Salted cheese foam
(To be completely honest the latte isn’t anything unique or special.
Taste was blend for me.
BUT the cheese, very delicious.
I did have to wait an additional 10 mins or so for the cheesecake because it wasn’t ready & the logo machine wasn’t ready for a press so my Cheesecake has no logo / design.
I was offered a discount due to the inconvenience but didn’t receive it (lol)

The packaging is just beautiful, great quality🤍

Overall I will be coming back for the other cheesecake flavors.
(& hopefully I receive the discount I was promised LOL)“

“just a wonderful place my favorite spot“

“I placed a last-minute order on sunday 5/4 for monday 5/5 and tuesday 5/6 full sheet cakes. And they were very accommodating. Not only that, but the cake was delicious!! Soft, moist, and not super sweet. Just like I like. My company loved it and asked where I found this gem of a bakery and where was it. 10/10 experience. Will for sure be ordering from here.“

“Nice little cafe with a small menu and tasty“

“Muy rica la comida, muchos platillos diferentes en el menú, y muy económico, panadería y variedad de productos Guatemaltecos.“

“Yummy! You won’t be disappointed …check them out for your next food event. Pizza 🍕 Rules!“

“I ordered sandwiches from them so many times, and it is a small take out order place only. Love 💖 the way they fixed their ingredients, tasted exactly like hometown and prices are reasonable,services are polite . Highly recommend. Parking in & out at no time.“

“This place came to the rescue!!! The wedding cake I had made fell over on the long drive. It was a disaster!! Other bakeries near the wedding venue were already closed and others needed at least 48 hour notice… the wedding was happening NOW. I called Sonora Bakery in my final desperate attempt, explained the situation, sent them a picture of the cake and within minutes, they got to work. The cake was delicious and the wedding was saved. Thank you Sonora Bakery…. You have a customer for life!“

“The waiter recommended the Caldo de Gallina and Wow great recommendation…it was super tasty and just the right amount of serving and the price was fair. The service was wonderful I would recommend this place if your looking for fresh clean meal.“

“Today I had a very bad experience, I went in the afternoon to buy bread and then the saleswoman received a call on her cell phone and she was going and she was coming and she didn't answer me and she didn't tell me to wait for her either, I thought I was going to get some attention with me for the wait and nothing, then when I saw that he was not going to attend to me I told him that I no longer wanted the bread (I still thought that by telling him that he was going to tell me that he was going to attend to me) and nothing told me that it was okay , and continued talking on the phone. I'm very sorry for this. Every time I have gone to buy bread here they have treated me well except today.“

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

“Follow the sign at Painter Avenue. Park your car at the first parking spot you see. Proceed down the driveway (look left) until you see the door in the fence. Walk to the left of the canopy and walk up the stairs to the "will call" office. Knock on the door until someone answers. They will walk you to the bakery where you can choose and pay for your bread. They take cash and cards. Excellent bread at great prices. I paid $5 for a large loaf of sourdough bread. Would definitely recommend!“

“beast bakery around hands down! prices are great. I thier Mexican pizzas. definitely recommend. but you need to get there early“
