““The sandwiches were so good, the place was so nice! We had a great time » Paul 9 years old

Excellent family time! We wanted to eat everything!! The soups, sandwiches, salads, desserts... the quantities are very generous and the atmosphere excellent.
One of our holiday favorites.?“

“Dinner ,breakfast coffee, staff were so friendly and welcoming“

“love this place but lately the music is SOOO loud and it's always like pop or rap - not like ambient music. Very hard to work here now, and I used to love doing so here but tough to focus. all the people around me felt the same and were sad about it too. Please can you reduce the volume of the music or change to something more ambient..it's a lot.“

“Best gluten free treats around! It's a small shop, but I love the vibe! I can't wait to order my birthday cake and party treats!! Parking can be tough at times...but street parking is available!“

“Great service and Great product.“

“I had been wanting to come here for a long time and try the gluten free birthday cake. It did not disappoint!“

“PRO TIP: go to Costco and get $100 DoorDash gift cards at 20% off, then use DoorDash pickup to order ahead at Jyan Isaac for no additional fee. Since you will end up spending $50-$200 here if you’re in Santa Monica for any amount of time, the savings are nice. Works out to one free full bagel gravlax with the works for every $100.“

“The best cookies you will find in all of Los Angeles. Creative flavors, quality ingredients, and made by the best people around. Highly recommend“

“Amazing assortment of breads! So many great pastries! A nice and relaxing atmosphere with friendly service!“

“Excellent coffee drinks, food and desserts. The atmosphere is exactly what we were looking for. Clean and inviting with indoor and outdoor seating. My Aunt is not a coffee connoisseur and she ordered a coffee drink that was not really what she should of ordered. The lady working here asked her how she likes her coffee and remade one for free that was exactly what my Aunt really wanted. Customer service that goes above and beyond. A++ in every facet!“

“A very nice place with very tasty desserts, I tried the chocolate brownie with coconut flakes and I really liked it, it was not cloyingly sweet, which is very important for me. Very friendly and helpful staff, they helped me with my choice)) I will definitely come back here again!)“

“I love this pastry shop. The staff are very friendly and helped me decide what to order. I chose the krinkle and the raspberry pastry, and both were outstanding, with the raspberry pastry with a slight edge.

Definitely coming back here anytime I'm in the area.“

“I literally prayed for a place where I could enjoy the best coffee & pastries close to my new home to make my life more perfect. And I spotted this place within minutes. My plan is to try each item one day at a time and to be grateful for this answered prayer. It's the little things.“

“I love this place I would travel so far just to try the cookies every week as they change flavors. It’s so exciting you have to try this place. Specially, in Inglewood the energy is so cool.“

“Stopped by House of Bread in Westwood, a small but neat little bakery owned by a Persian woman. Tried their country sourdough, and overall, it was a good loaf. The crust had a nice crunch, and the aroma was spot on—earthy and inviting. The crumb, however, was a bit denser than expected, lacking the usual airy texture, and it leaned more on the chewy side. Still, the flavor was enjoyable, and it’s clear they use quality ingredients.

One suggestion for the owner: consider adding a bread slicer. It would make it much more convenient for customers who prefer pre-sliced loaves“

“Went here with a friend and was blown away (sounds cliche!) by the level of service I got from a place I wasn't destined to spend more than $10 at. The honestly polite cashier (manager, perhaps?) and her knowledge of all of the various cookies, their ingredients, and other particulars, made my day. Reminded me of how service used to be years ago. The cookies were very good, too, as were the samples I was given. I'd love to come back here when I'm in the area.

Dietary restrictions: Very good assortment of gluten-free cookies, along with conventional ones.“

“The workers are really nice, but this place is so overpriced and they charge for everything. If you get a bagel with cream cheese, they barely add any cream cheese and they charge you for extra. The coffee is small and it's at least $6. The bread is very good.“

“I ask for their water/ocean “decoration” (it’s just the whipped cream frosting). It’s perfect because we put our own decorations at home. The cake is perfection. The strawberry shortcake is perfection. The chocolate one is rich. Whipped cream frosting is absolutely perfect.

Just give yourself enough time to pick up your order because it gets packed so you can be waiting for a while. Even if it’s just a pick up.“

“I discovered the Baked Bar LA by accident and I’m glad I did.
The food is amazing, and never disappoints. They have Vegan and GF options. Coffee is amazing as well as their teas. The atmosphere is very relaxing. Anytime I visit Culver City, Baked bar LA is top priority.“

“Exceptional and delicious food. You can taste the thought they put into every dish. The service was perfect as well, it was attentive but at the same time it did not feel forced or too pushy. Perfect place with a great atmosphere. Definitely recommend and would come back. I also appreciated that they add 4% health service charge to provide health care for their employees. It felt like they care about people working there and it was reflected in the atmosphere of the place.“

“I rushed there after work and so did many others. We were looking for Olivia’s Guts Tour cookie. I picked up a dozen of the weekly assortment including four of Olivias cookies. These cookies are delicious and huge! You order from the self-serv kiosk, it was difficult to only order 12 and in what combination. As you wait for your order to get filled, you see the employees busy working to fill the orders in a clean, orderly bake shop. The aroma was delightful and not too sweet. The decor is minimal with an open layout, so you can wee all the delicious cookies. This location has plenty of parking in the strip mall.“

“I was excited to come here based on reviews and environment. It looked so cute inside and I was so happy to try it. I ordered a cold brew, but it was extremely watered down, so that was disappointing. The woman who took my order at the counter was not friendly at all, which really ruined the experience for me. It’s almost like I had no right to be there. I didn’t order any food, but the open faced bagels looked really good, so I gave the food 5 stars as a benefit of the doubt.
But I’m not sure I’ll come back based on the sour mood of the cashier.“

“Quality food, service and relaxed environment. Totally understated as the staff assist where needed with a minimum of fuss as we enjoyed the experience.“

“I had a last minute need for a hostess gift for a brunch I was attending, I placed the order an Saturday for Sunday and the amazing cookies were delivered Sunday mid-morning. My friends who are also client absolutely loved the gift. This is a wonderful gift for any occasion“

“Special thanks to Laila and her amazing team for their outstanding service and warm hospitality. The vegan section and options are an absolute dream — so thoughtfully curated and delicious. I love that there’s a separate section just for plant-based items; it makes ordering so much easier and more enjoyable. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, which truly enhances the experience.“

“Amazing place!! Do yourself a favor and go! Make it“

“Everything I ever had from Vienna Pastry is beyond delicious. The staff is wonderful. My favorite cookie in the entire world is made by this fabulous bakery. I live in PA and I never make a trip to CA without several stops at Vienna Pastry. The owner, Jaleh Rahban, is one of the kindest ladies I have ever met. I recommend this shop to everyone.

“I got lemon, key lime, praline, sweet potato, strawberry and cream and pineapple. And all are so very good. Light and creamy with deep rich flavor. Can Not Be Beat.“

“I had ordered a 12 slice carrort cake with butter cream frosting for my boyfriend's birthday. It was a hit! Everyone loved the flavor and spices. It was a very dense and moist cake as well. Service was fast and friendly. I would definitely recommend this bakery. I am very happy and very satisfied!“

“Flaky and buttery pastries! Raspberry and raisin swirls were amazing, nutella filled pastry was to die for. Almond croissant needs a little work it was not as flaky as the other pastries.
Little on the pricier side but totally worth it.“

“nice people, nice baked goods, good coffee, what else? just go see by yourself you'll like it:)“

“These heart cookies with the pink frosting were literally my lifeblood in the early 2000s as a young chimp running around the AMS Elementary School.I came back here for the first time in a minute this weekend, now a full grown orangutan, and can confirm these heart cookies with the pink frosting ($1.50) are still literal crack cocaine. I really don't even mess with frosting on cookies usually, but Becker's is just different.I paired an americano with my cookie, as they now have a Hi-Fi Espresso in here which I think slangs some of the best espresso around. It makes me feel like I'm in Europe idk how else to describe it.I almost bought a shirt, but I have SO many shirts already so I opted against it. However, when I was doing my due diligence for this review a sense of regret shot through my spine like it was an epidural when I saw Beckers has been around since 1942. I had NO idea that Beckers has been around since Joseph Stalin was the Time Magazine Person of the Year. Still so crazy he was Time's Person of the Year.......The business is still in the family after 3 generations (Shoutout to the OG Harry Becker for kicking it off), which really makes me want to go back and buy a shirt. I love places passed from generation to generation. No wonder these heart cookies with the pink frosting still taste exactly the same as they did when I was just a little chimp.Some free game for y'all, if you go to someone's party in Manhattan Beach and they don't have a box of Becker's cookies, they are a big fat phony..... ahaha I'm playin but actually OGs will always have a box of Beckers for a function.I should mention that they also have a deli here that people love, but I've really only ever been here for the cookies. You know why I'm here.As the money and botox continues to move into Manhattan Beach, this is one of the 5 or 6 places left keeping the soul of what I knew as a small local beach town alive.THANK YOU BECKERS NEVER SWITCH UP! I'M COMIN BACK FOR THE SHIRT!IG @jnov_Tiktok @jnov__“

“Omg I love Sweet Potato tarts with the pecan nuts“

“Coming from a Vietnamese person who makes her own Vietnamese coffee at home, they have THE best and authentic Vietnamese coffee here (cafe sửa đã). The added layer of foam on top has just the right little amount of salt and creaminess to it. Every sip is O.M.G. - and I’ve tried many Vietnamese coffee in the area! This type of coffee is pretty caffeinated, so be warned, but it’s very delicious, give it a try!

Also, their cookies are SO delicious! A bit chewy on the outside and doughy on the inside. They can heat it there for you, or take it home and pop it in the microwave in increments of 10sec. My fav is the chocolate with peanut butter. Love this place!

Ahh, one last thing, their raspberry matcha is very delicious!“

“I love the ice cream and desserts at this shop.“

“I never write reviews but literally set my slice of cake down (really hard to do) because I had to run and write a review. Hands down the best chocolate cake I have ever had in my life! Please support our awesome local businesses! Great customer service and vibe inside! Will be back more than I should because it is THAT good!!“

“This place is amazing. The store owner/ worker was so so nice when we came in and fast (we were in hurry). He even threw in some donut holes for free. Prices are reasonable and donuts tasty. Will come back anytime I am remotely close. Please come here!“

“Visited multiple times during our stay in Santa Monica. The donuts are delicious. It’s no frills, definitely not one of these new fancy donut shops. But the donuts are simple, tasty and reasonably priced ($10 for a half dozen). The folks working behind the counter were very friendly and helpful.“

“This is a weird review. Belwood is great - nice, quick, and classic baked goods (especially the chocolate muffin!), but that’s not what this review is about.

Belwood’s smoothies are SO good. Kreation is nearby and doesn’t even compare to Belwood’s smoothies. The strawberry banana is my go to (a classic), but mango and other flavors are so delicious too. They also offer a wide variety of mix ins (protein powder, etc.). I would STRONGLY recommend getting a smoothie with your next morning muffin!“

“This is the best gluten free bakery ever! I love their food and bread! My gluten eating family will only agree to go with me to this place. Amazing taste and best quality ingredients! A special thanks to the chef! You are the very best! A true master!!!“

“I have been looking for the best gluten free bagels for years. Finally found it! Thank you Modern Bagel!“

“Buen servicio de comidas !“

“She does a beautiful job, the cake tastes amazing, and her customer service is fantastic!! Sonia did wedding cakes for my sister and everyone loved it!“

“I love to eat here everything very rich and clean 😋 👌“

“Best kosher bakery!!! Variety of cakes, tarts, best sourdough and multigrain bread! They have gluten free items per request and always happy to accommodate!“

“Crumbl Cookies is amazing! Each cookie is perfectly baked—soft, warm, and so flavorful. The rotating flavors keep things exciting, and every visit feels like a treat. The presentation is beautiful too. Highly recommend for any cookie lover!

Parking: Great location with plenty of parking!

Kid-friendliness: Clean and kid friendly place.“

“Love Roji Bakery! Great, friendly service and the fruit sandos are the best! This was one of my favorite things about my LA trip!❤️❤️❤️“

“excellent bakery.......customer service. delicious treats. #miz_pound_cake“
