“We used Cookies OMG for holiday gift baskets at my work this year. I personally delivered the baskets and every office staff was shocked at the custom detailing and said "Oh My God!! (Plus they were delicious!!) - Thanks so much Cookies OMG for an awesome gift no one will forget!! Looking forward to using Cookies OMG as my go to gift for any occasion!“
“Best Bakery ever. Their products are delicious and made with care and a lot of know-how. They use locally sourced wonderful flour (I use the same at home). Staff is wonderful as well. I visit them from out of state on a regular basis because they are better than anything I have found anywhere else.Even though fresh is the best, I can also freeze a loaf and it is still great after being defrosted.Their croissants are out of this world.“
“Foodwise, is truly a wonderful story, somebody in the kitchen knows what to do and that translates all the way to our braines stirring waves of good sensations.Their turkish culture habits, the hours limitation for certain types of food, do not always overlap with other's schedule or expectations. The staff is very polite and forthcoming but that's so much they can do.The atmosphere is a bit bizzare, the music for example, is not in tune with the specific, the way that the tables are set, suggests rather a train fare than a regular restaurant.Their sweets shop however, is there to take away all possible clouds and make your day.Parking: Plenty of parking“
“Me, my fiancé and our friend came here to check it out on a rainy day and super glad we did! The three workers who helped us were super chill and made it a very comfortable experience. We all got different infused lemonades that were super tasty! We will definitely be back to try their other flavors and pastries. If you have been considering coming in, it’s definitely worth it :)“
“This is my second order from the website. Last year, for Easter, I brought a plate of cannoli and so did someone else. This year, I switched to a cannoli cake. Wow, what a reaction. Gotta bring it again next year. By demand. It also started an argument over their mother's cheesecake. Go figure in a house with Italians. Everyone should be so lucky to have a Tony Cannoli in their town. Love the cannoli, the shakes, and now the cake. Service is great. Cake was ready for pick-up when I arrived. Had a small container of cannoli topping. Looked really busy in back getting orders ready for Easter.“
“These politics out these dangerous times in the world. We need unity not division in this day and age. People should enjoy donuts and coffee in a non political environment. I suggest that the owner of this establishment should tell the person who put up several Israeli flags to remove them. The donuts were excellent and the customer service was great. I do not feel comfortable going back to this establishment who obviously promotes and supports a political agenda. Let's stick with good food and great customer service this is a winning mix.“
“These scones are AMAZING! He had bagels one day, and it was quite the treat. My grandfather has been a regular customer for years, and can confirm the quality is consistent and customer care is superb. Many people think of scones as dry, but these are wonderfully moist! My suggestions would be the apple cinnamon or strawberry scones for a first time try.Dietary restrictions: They had options for vegan and gluten free sensitivities. Not all options are gluten free, but are clearly labeled as such.“
“Being gluten free and dairy free has made life challenging, but not since finding Holcomb Hollow! I've been a loyal customer since finding them at Green Joe's in Schaumburg. I'v also bought them at Pure Juice Cafe in Arlington Heights. With my wacky commute, I've also been able to find them at Brewpoint Coffee in Elmhurst as well as Conscious Cup in Palatine. We love their muffins, cookies, and donuts so so much. They are tasty and never give us a problem with our special dietary restrictions. They also are at the Mundelein Farmer's Market and offer seasonal special sales from their wholesale baking location in Mundelein. I follow them on Instagram where they advertise their latest products or new flavors. I also keep tabs on which businesses stock them on their IG page because it feels like the list keeps growing! IG is where they announce their random seasonal specials too. Devoted fan right here!“
“The cookies are DELICIOUS! The company tries to switch up the flavors weekly and always does a great job deciding on new flavors. The cookies are very large too, and we split one between 3 people. They are approximately $6 per cookie, so a little expensive but worth it. I highly recommend trying this place! (Pictured is the Tres Leches Cookie)“
“Ordered 72 bundt cakes for a wedding reception and it was the hottest item on the dessert bar. The order process was smooth and thorough. The staff was very pleasant. The owners take great pride in customer service and it shows. Looking forward to ordering for our next event. Thanks again to Neil for everything!!!“
“Had lunch in...chicken parmesan was dry, not enough sauce, chicken tasted old, didn't like. Would have liked ice water at table rather than having to purchase $2 bottles of water. Bread was excellent. Paid and tipped, but no table service, so not sure why.Cannolis that we took to-go for a birthday were fantastic. Rosemary focaccia to-go, also great.“
“OMG the hot chocolate is to die for! Like drinking a melted candy bar and served with milk and whipped cream. Just like I've had many times in Switzerland and France. Spot on! And the Pain Au Chocolat was amazing and they warmed it up for us. Lots of seating. Definitely a go-to spot from now on!“
“Everything I have ever purchased from here has exceeded my expectations and when I bring donuts to work, everyone raves how good they are. Other than sub par chain donut places in the city, there are almost none that I know of in the NW side of Chicago that are as good as Deerfield's. I do not mind the drive bc I know Im getting the best donuts.“
“I stopped by for the first time last week while I was in the area and was absolutely thrilled with what I found! This place is amazing, both in terms of food and service! Such a small spot with so much to choose from. We ordered a khachapuri hot from the oven, some pkhali, eggplant walnut rolls- all delicious! There’s also a frozen section with khinkali dumplings and khachapuri to take home. Not to mention the Georgian wines, spices, and sauces available for purchase. I even found my favorite tarragon lemonade there! I can’t say enough good things about this little gem of a shop. I’ll be back!“
“We had the BEST time at Punky Cake yesterday. My daughters and I took the cake decorating class and had so much fun and learned so much from Ashely! Ashley has such an amazing energy and taught us all the steps and techniques needed to make a double layer 8” rainbow cake! The experience was so fun we can’t wait to go back for another class! We were able enjoy eating the cake with our family and we are pretty picky about cakes and we ALL raved about the flavor and how it wasn’t too sweet and heavy. The flavor was a perfect balance of flavors. We were all very impressed!! Thank you Ashley and Punky Cakes you’ll be seeing us again very soon!“
“And absolutely amazing place far surpasses any fast food, you can get, including Panera and subway, fresh cut deli meats made to order massive ham and cheese sandwich for less than six dollars lots of sides dinners you can take home my highest “
“Not gonna lie, I ended up here because my husband and I needed a quick snack, and I tried to go to Choo Choo down the street, but they were packed. When I walked in, there was a long line, and that seemed promising, plus it was moving quickly. We wanted something savory, so we ordered a ham and cheese croissant, a goat cheese and pesto croissant, and a spinach quiche. They warmed up the pastries and brought them out to our table pretty quickly. I was surprised the pastries were so good. The croissants were so flakey and delightful. The spinach quiche had a lovely crust. I completely forgot to take pictures because I was in a rush and starving, but I also saw a security sign that said no camera allowed. I wish they had more savory pastry options with meat, but the ham and cheese croissant was all they had when I visited. I did see that they had sandwiches that could be ordered, so I might try that if I am ever in the area again.“
“This review is brought to you by the letter F! F: resh mochi, rice flour based donuts every time! Rotating flavors to suit every palate. F: amily friendly menu, with Korean hot dogs, donuts, bubble tea, and coffee drinks. F: ind it at the northeast corner of the Milwaukee/Golf intersection next to Fannie May.“
“Our wedding cake turned out absolutely STUNNING and delicious. We received so many compliments on our cake because it was so good. It was definitely the best cake I've ever had. It was so fresh and turned out absolutely beautiful. They made the experience of designing our cake so easy and I trusted them throughout the whole process. Such a timeless design and the size was absolutely perfect. They exceeded our expectations and we will be going back for other goodies and may make it a tradition to order a cake for our wedding anniversaries. Highly recommend!! “
“i got there right before 2pm on a saturday and there was barely anything left!! was dying to try one of those sandos but what i did get was delicious. mos def home made...sweet, SWEET japanese lady behind counter, and i am all about supporting small local businesses! RUN AS SOON AS THEY OPEN AND BRING CASH!!“
“I worked with Dorel when liquidating restaurant equipment. He was knowledgeable, professional and enjoyable at every turn! He even tracked me down after over two years to pay me for a transaction that we had only verbally agree to. This demonstrates great integrity and honesty. I would recommend Champion to anyone!“
“Best cakes and soups I have ever had! Everything is made fresh and tastes delicious! John and Nana are friendly and work hard to cook wonderful soups and treats. I have brought cakes to work and parties and they are always tasty and fresh. Even the gluten free foods melt in your mouth. Give them a try you'll be happy you did!“
“Wonderful owners. They’re always so sweet and kind. They make wonderful cakes and pastries. We took a chance on this place for a birthday party and after trying some samples with the owner, our expectations were admittedly high because the samples were so good. They exceeded our expectations. The cake looked so cute and amazing and tasted even better. Will definitely be coming back here for all birthdays and special occasions!“
“We love these cookies! The chocolate chip is always a family favorite but we like the fun of the variety too. Curbside or delivery service are a huge plus!Vegetarian options: Dessert!Parking: Huge lot. Dedicated spots for curbside service.Kid-friendliness: Nowhere to eat inside. But the flavors are always exciting for the kids. Especially the extras like shark gummies.“
“I went yesterday when visiting Chicago. I had never had it before but I went by the recommendations of Skokie residents and I was very impressed. I took 6 desserts home to Kentucky and my only regret is I didn’t take more oatmeal raisin cookies. Those were absolutely phenomenal.“
“Great little store. Very friendly person behind the counter. I placed an order in the morning and received a call shortly after to let me know their Saturday hours and exactly when my order would be ready. Loved the DIY Christmas Cookies and our dogs loved the K-9 cookies as well.“
“A cute lovely welcoming atmosphere a very friendly mum and daughter partnership. I am very fortunate to have this bakery on my doorstep. Fabulous bonus that I am able to enjoy delicious cakes, cookies all dairy, nut and egg free. If you have not tried any of their products you should stop by. You will not be disappointed.“
“What a great addition to the neighborhood. My brother-in-law recommended this bakery and I ordered my parents 40th wedding anniversary cake from them. The cake was beyond our expectations. Jorge(the owner) suggested few changes and it worked in our favor. He customized it with edible gold leafs. I highly recommend them and will definitely order from them next time. Also, they have great pastries and cupcake.“
“My wife and I were very impressed with this restaurant, it was our first time dinning here, this is an authentic French restaurant. Let me start by saying the customer service is top notch. Our server Miguel was very knowledgeable with the menu and all the staff were very friendly. Our food did not disappoint, it’s was so delicious and I would say one of the best restaurants in town. From the salad, appetizer to the main entrees and dessert, everything was perfect. I would highly recommend Taste of Paris.“
“The very best the North Shore has to offer in Italian food. This small cozy restaurant serves the most authentic Italian dishes and the baked goods are incredible. Gino the owner is an amazing person in every way and a great friendTonight the squash stuffed raviolis in a sage butter sauce with sugar brought me back to Tuscany 5 stars and get a cannoli“
“Everything here is incredibly delicious! I guarantee that anything you try you will love! ☺️ I have been getting my cakes from Gourmet Frog for over 15 years, and from my wedding day to just because I was having a bad day and needed a little treat, it's always a hit! I can't recommend froggies enough! (What I endearingly call them ?)“
“The bakery goods are amazing! So fresh & delicious! The Owner is such a wonderful Lady - friendly, personable, & makes the experience fantastic! From the moment you walk in, the delicious smells & warm atmosphere surrounds you! Thank you so much for bringing your family recipes to us! Everything is delicious!!“
“Best pastries around!! My favs are the onion roll and the chocolate cream ones. We also always get the crustless bread. I've even gotten my daughter into loving the turtles. We also get the bun with the hot dog inside and a few others. I will say it does get crowded but it's goes relatively fast. And there are trays with tongs to grab the pastries yourself. The staff are super friendly and helpful and inside is cute with cute decor. Also get the tiramsu! Def would recommend to anybody and will always keep coming myself.“
“I was throwing my husband a surprise "Freight 50 Birthday Party". He has been working in the freight train industry for 30yrs, and is also an avid train enthusiast. So I was looking for a non kiddie themed train cake.Le Sucre was literally my best decision in finding the perfect cake! The lead chef/owner is an "Artistic Genius" who listened to my vision and exceeded all my expectations. It looked phenomenal and tasted Heavenly, it was one of the best cakes I've ever had. All my guests were asking where I got the cake from, for their own events bc it tasted so Delicious! I got Tiramisu cake, it was so moist and each flavor was bold and prominent, but yet cohesive a mouth full.“
“Continental Bakery has been a family favorite since forever. My parents bought cakes and sweets for special occasians, now I'm buying cakes and sweets for my kids and new family special occasians. They always suprise me with their wonderful cakes. I let them be creative and they never disappoint. The best!!“
“I’m confused how this place does not have hundreds of positive reviews. It's like a hidden gem I just found. The apple pie is amazing, 10/10. Little pricey ($25) so I can’t justify buying it often but worth it if you want to splurge now and then. They have so many options of treats and sweets to choose from for all preferences and budgets. Great atmosphere and good service.“
“Title: A Delightful Experience at Amante BakeryI recently had the pleasure of visiting Amante Bakery and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment I stepped into the bakery, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The smell of freshly baked goods filled the air, instantly making my mouth water.The star of the show was undoubtedly their Miodovnik cake. It was a true masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Every bite was an adventure of rich honey, aromatic spices, and layers of moist cake. It was obvious that a lot of care and craftsmanship went into creating this delectable treat.What made the experience even more enjoyable was the owner's Daniela dedication to customer satisfaction. They truly made me feel welcome and valued as a customer. Their attentiveness and willingness to answer my questions and provide recommendations was a testament to their passion for their craft.Overall, my visit to Amante Bakery was a memorable one. Not only did I have the opportunity to indulge in their incredible Miodovnik cake, but I also experienced a level of service that went above and beyond. I highly recommend this bakery to anyone seeking a truly exceptional bakery experience. I will definitely be returning to Amante Bakery for more of their delightful creations. Customer from Children's Land“
“I really like this bakery. I mainly come in for the "Ojos de Buey" pastry - the outside is a pastry dough and the middle is yellow cake. Sweet, but not overly so, and perfect with a coffee. Their conchas are pretty good too, and the price can't be beat.“
“This place is a gem! I mean, it’s a home bakery, so it’s not really a place, but the pick-up is seamless! And the macarons are absolutely worth it.The care and attention that went into each macaron is exceptional. They are so cute. And I love that they are the perfect size. They are the perfect couple bites of perfectly textured, and wonderfully flavored macaron.And definitely try all their flavors. I’d never had dalgona before, and it’s delicious!I can’t recommend them enough. They communicate mainly through text and email, and are incredibly quick to reply to any questions. They texted me as soon as my order was ready and my macarons were gift wrapped so beautifully! They even included two bonus macaron!Dietary restrictions: I’m gluten free and have a chocolate allergy! So, they took that into account for me.“
“There’s no doubt that this is the best ice cream shop in the greater Chicagoland area, however the staff is what makes the experience much more worth it each time we come. We came in a few nights ago and were helped by the lovely manager Zelle, who made my little brother’s birthday 10x better by not only treating him to a delicious sundae with a fun candy face and lots of sprinkles, but served it with a beautiful smile! Her and other staff were having lots of fun behind the counter and engaging in jokes and conversation with my family. They really made us feel like we were old friends to them, like regulars that they’ve known their whole lives, something you really don’t see anymore. You would think that’s how every service worker would be while working in ice cream? Nope, only at this Graeter’s. Thank you Zelle and thank you Graeter’s team!“
“We wandered in just cuz it looked cool and it knocked it out of the park. While we decided what to order they gave us samples of their chicken jalapeño lumpia and chatted with us. We got the mixed mini lumpia, pork skewers, BBQ Bulgogi Bao, crab lumpia and a coconut smoothie. All of it was so incredibly good. I can’t wait to go back - we’ll definitely dine in next time.“
“This adorable bakery is just amazing. They were kind, responsive (even while taking a sick day), the cake was delicious,and the price was right. I reached out to Bent Fork after terrible experiences w lovin oven. Even with a short turn around time I got an amazing cake that was just what we needed. Everyone loved it esp my bday boy. And at cake pickup they told me “we just love what we do”.You have forever customer in me. I appreciate your amazing service and delicious cake so much!“
“What a fabulous and beautiful coffee shop. Each suburb needs one of these. The cappuccino was perfect, not bitter and not too much milk with lots of frost. We also enjoyed a scone and an apricot and cherry tart which were so yummy. The decor is very welcoming. A very lovely place that I’m looking forward to visiting again and hopefully soon.“
“Just like in life, everyone deserves a second chance. This is my third time at Sugarcoated and my second review. This time everything purchased was wonderful and as fresh as could be. My biggest surprise was the Old Fashion Oatmeal cookie, there are not your grandmother’s oatmeal cookies, these are amazing! I also feel a real good vibe from the owner who was very cordial and appreciative of my support. I will be back!“
“Comfort food in a cozy country-style atmosphere. Classic food prepared fresh with generous portions for the price ($10-14). We had the fried chicken & philly steak flatbread - delicious! This really is a hidden gem with a wonderful mission to support adults with intellectual disabilities. Why stop at a chain restaurant when your money can go to such a good cause? TIP: We were glad we wandered around because we picked up some delicious chocolates & cookies in the little country store around the corner from the pet stop.“
“It was my first time here, but I had heard a lot about this establishment. Excellent service, recommendations on choosing cakes or pastries. While I was here, I noticed that a lot of regular people came. The atmosphere here is warm. Choice of coffee ☕️ or tea ☕️ - milk or cream. You can also pre-order for a specific date.Parking: We parked without any problems and were able to visit this wonderful place“
“It’s a lovely bakery. I’ve had their cakes, macarons and pastries. My new favorite is the ube latte!Would love to give 5 stars however their customer service could use some work. The young lady working on Sunday 3/3 was very rude to my husband and I.“
“This has been my favorite bakery since moving to the northern suburbs at the end of 2018! The cakes are always decadent and taste phenomenal and their pricing is SO reasonable. I recommend La Luz to anyone that I think might be in need of a top notch bakery and can assure you that you will NOT be disappointed!! ?“
“Was in the area and had to make a stop back to Mochinut. The flavors this week looked really good. I love the texture and chewiness of these donuts. They are light and not overly sweet. We enjoyed the original glazed and churro at the store. My sister was expecting the glazed to be a sugar rush. But to her surprise it wasn't too sweet, but perfect! She had her first mochiball and loved the strawberry filling. Great little after noon treat to enjoy with hot tea on this frigid cold weekend!“
“I have now visited this place a few times. I was here when they first opened and they needed to work out the kinks. I visited again when their pastries seemed to only come out of the refrigerated shelves and now they have a case with pastries. The two women working were nice when I arrived both greeting me separately when I walked in. One worked solely on drive thru orders and didn't help out the main counter if there was no one in the drive thru. The other working the main counter took her time making my drink of choice: hot mocha with oatmilk and an extra pump of chocolate (not a coffee drinker here). She filled my mug to the brim with artistic yumminess. It's a fairly open concept inside with two Jeni's ice cream coolers along one wall and a refrigerated cooler with juice cold brew canned coffees, bagels, fruit and other items. There's plenty of seating and plenty of space so you aren't on top of others. They have bistro tables, high chairs with a counter along two windows, low tables for 2/4/6 people for privacy to collaboration, and they have comfortable chairs and couches with coffee tables. It's a great place to start your day, conduct business, meet up with family and friends or to just kick back with a nice cup of Joe and a decent nosh.“
