“Gabriella was great to work with for our wedding in August 2023! We visited the bakery to pick up a sampling of cakes/fillings/frostings and everything was delicious. We chose our options and emailed her and she confirmed right away. We ordered a small two-tier cake for us and a small one-tier cake for my parents, whose 50th anniversary was a week after our wedding. Both cakes were delivered on time and looked beautiful, and were exactly what we were hoping for! I'd recommend this bakery to anyone planning a wedding in the area!“
“We were craving ice cream so I went on Yelp! Everything was a million miles away except Mel's Creamery. So after reading the reviews I was confused. So completely different. But it was the only option close to us so we took the risk. SO GLAD WE DID!Unlike other reviewers I found the place to be super clean and so 50's it was so fun!!The young lady waiting on us was nice though a little shy. I ordered a banana split and my friend a strawberry sundae, ( we like the classics). She started making mine, or what I thought was mine and asked if I wanted hot fudge and of course I said yes! Then as I was watching her I realized it was my friends sundae, my friend can't eat chocolate. So I stopped her. So got confused. So to save her embarrassment I just said to make two Strawberry sundaes one with chocolate fudge and one without. No big deal. We thanked her and left to eat them in the car. BOY DID I NOT MISS THE BANANA SPLIT!! Both our sundaes were FANTASTIC!! Every bite we said "yum!" Out loud!Highly recommend! We're just going to order one at a time in the future.“
“Def lived up to the expectations! The line was almost always out the door and we can see why.The ham and cheese croissant was so good, even hours after we got it. Also ordered the blueberry muffin and the chocolate chip cookie - amazing! The coffee was okay too... Youngbuns across the street has the same coffee, and it wasn't as busy.Overall, a delicious bakery and worth the wait!“
“Went here on a date with my girlfriend. Kristen and TJ were our servers and so helpful and kind, amazing service and atmosphere! Some of the best food I've ever eaten! It's worth every penny! If you are ever in Mystic, CT, I highly recommend this place with every fiber of my being. I got their grilled salmon special, and it was the best salmon I have ever had. It's so good that if I wasn't so full after having it(which is one of the best signs of good food), I would've gone for seconds. Check this out if you love seafood and even if you don't! ???“
“This was an amazing spot! I was so excited to find this place, and their specialty drinks were out of this world. The donuts, amazing! The miso caramel was delicious, I ordered my kids the cinnamon glaze, thinking they wouldn’t want the caramel and they devoured my donut too! I also had the mushroom toast which was a real treat. This is a must try on your visit. It was so good, I’d go back to Mystic just to go here.“
“My husband and I have getting cakes, cookies and cupcakes from Vesta for years. They are always accommodating. The prices are the best you will find with a real baker who puts her heart into all she makes. Recently we ordered some sugar cookies for My moms birthday. I wanted red cardinal's and italian horns. She nailed it better then I could of imagined. White sugar cookies with gold italian horns with gold powder. BEAUTIFUL. I got them in honor of my grandmother that just past. They made My mom cry.So happy to have them in town from Saturday morning pastries to special occasions cakes. Best around!Parking: Lots of spots on both sides of the road. I've always been able to park with no issuesKid-friendliness: What kids don't like sweets. Yes!“
“They do a juice cleanse which is phenomenal. It is really well thought through. I have never fasted before and am presently finishing my last green juice on my third day, before the grand finale of the cashew mylk drink, and I feel like I have really done something worthwhile. The rest of the menu is also great, and the people are friendly.Vegetarian options: There’s only a couple things that are not vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: Anyone can eat here.Kid-friendliness: It’s great for kids.“
“Great little bakery for a quick scone, muffins & fabulous cupcakes! Outside window pickup only until the warm weather comes. I got the last strawberry, chocolate chip scone with a chai latte & delicious as always!Parking: You can park in back of building if you are just taking it to go!“
“Subway is subway, it's mediocre food but sometimes that's what I want, this particular subway does always tend to be better than others I've eaten at and when I tend to stop in only on certain days of the week the employees are always welcoming and friendly and always make a well structured sandwich, couldn't ask for more when going into a subway.“

“The Fisherman is our go to for date night, the servers and managers are so personable and the food is great! Zach, the head chef, went the extra mile to come say hi and ask us how our specials were. Their jumbo coconut shrimps are one of our favorites, and the home made pickles on their burgers are some of the best I’ve had. This is worth the few extra miles to the water front, and definitely the place to be for outdoor dining when the patio is available!“
“Went here twice. One night for dinner and the next day for breakfast. Breakfast food was better than dinner food.Great menu though, lots of choices/options.Waitresses were great at both meals very nice and efficient.The night we went to dinner, the ATM machines were down and they were only taking cash. We were fine with us but should have been told to us before we were seated and the waitress took our drink orders and said, “oh by the way…”.I gave it a 4/5 because of the overall cleanliness especially in the bathroom. I used the restroom earlier in the meal and let someone know if the concerns. When my family went at the end of the meal, the concerns were not addressed and when it was mentioned again, it did not seem important to the staff person who was less than friendly about the concern being brought to her attention.“
“Delicious hot lobster roll! The ambiance is wonderful. As a visitor to Connecticut, they made me feel right at home and recommended all kinds of places for me around Mystic. Yahtzee behind the bar was so gracious and sweet. It’s a must stop in town for a bite and a brew!“
“Had a Cheese Pizza and Caesar salad tonight. Very good! And our server was very nice and attentive. They also serve sandwiches and pasta dishes... good prices, will definitely go back. Atmosphere was good and friendly. Lots of local people. They also have a patio of tables outside. Ample parking.“
