“I love Crumbl cookies and love how they give you different cookies to choose from each week. I don’t think I ate one that I haven’t at least liked. I put a four for service only because I usually do Uber eats and they always forget my milk atmosphere I only put a three because I never actually been into the store, otherwise love love love“

“I’m from out of town and wanted to grab some cake or cupcakes for my husbands birthday. Some friends and I walked over to Bittersweet Confections and took in all the delish smells ! The place was clean, they offered water & everything looked amazing. We had the best service and everyone we interacted with was so kind!! These cupcakes we had were AMAZING!!! My friends got a scone and a brownie and they said they were so good as well! I love that they had some local jewelry, books, and other cute things as well. I picked up a child’s book for my daughter, she will love it! They also had cake toppers and candles with a match book, which is a great touch!

I highly recommend checking this place out. Thank you so much!!“

“I moved to the area about two years ago and after trying many bakeries in the area Levee is my favorite. Not only are their pastries seasonal and delicious, but the staff are al so welcoming and friendly. I live their savory croissants and their seasonally flavored cuffing. They also have fantastic sandwiches, cookies, and bread. You can't go wrong with Levee.“

“We were staying nearby for a few days and visited the bakery several times. We tried several different treats, and my favorite was the chocolate caramel croissant roll! It was heavenly! My only regret is that I didn’t get a king cake to bring home!“

The other day, while enjoying a pastry on Leo’s patio, I listened in on a couple breaking up. Breakfast and a show!
Every Friday, I pick up one of their amazing sandwich loafs for my girlfriend so she’ll stay in love with me.“

“The BEST Customer Service around. Thank you !!!! Thank you !!!! Thank you!!!!“

“Amazing food! Hip vibe! Avacado toast was the best!!“

“I can’t speak more highly about this Bakery! I have had EVERYTHING and I’m obsessed. They made a giant king cake 3 for my son’s birthday and it was phenomenal. Their day to day chocolate croissants, cookies, and bread have always been top tier. Along with having my favorite traditional king cake they will remain my favorite. 10/10 recommendation.“

“I love TM Breads and Pastries! They serve high-quality chai, and their pastries are deliciously balanced. It’s a great spot for a morning meetup with friends or even to get some work done. Highly recommend!

Dietary restrictions: They do have alternative-milk options!“

“Fresh Baguettes, bagels, English muffins, bread!“

“One of the absolute best breakfast biscuit sandwiches I've ever had. Not some freezer thawed airfryer junk, this had the fluffiest texture of biscuit and cheese and egg... would've shared a photo but eating and enjoying it was way more important. I'm actually sharing this the day as I reminisce how delicious it was 😏🎉👑“

“2025 UPDATE: Previously, I gave this place 2 stars in 2021. They've worked their way up to 3.5/3 75. They've mostly done away with those overly sweet novelty donuts and instead stepped up their basic glazed donuts. A fresh, warm. glazed Hurts Donut has become my favorite bakery donut in the city. (Since Blue Dot closed)

2021 Review:
THE NAME SAYS IT ALL!!! These are NOT good New Orleans donuts like that of the old McKenzie's, Shipley's, The Buttermilk Milk Drop, or Blue Dot. These donuts look cute, but they HURT your stomach! Poor POOR quality ingredients, LOADS of crappy sugar, and NO real FLAVOR. They are just trendy and Instagramable, but as far as actually eating them... never again. We ordered a large box with a variety of flavors. The Jesus donut was the absolute sweetest! The Strawberry Cheesecake was the most artificial tasting and disappointing. No strawberry. No cheesecake flavor. Walmart Great Value Graham crackers thrown on top.. Just a large quantity of crap disguised as cool novelty donuts. Then I read they are from Michigan, no disrespect to Michigan, but that explained a lot. I'd take a classic donut from a place like Starbucks before I ever subject myself to another night on the toilet with these. FLAVOR over AESTHETICS!!! I gave them 2 stars because I do love the Andy Warhol theme boxes, but obviously, the bandaids over the donuts were a warning. Also,the best one seemed to be the Butterfinger/Bart Simpson donut. Still super sweet but actually tastes good when slightly warmed up.“

“We ate there while on vacation and their coffee and their twist on french toast was the best I’ve had. The service was top notch and the cafe was very clean :) Highly recommend stopping in.“

“Chicken Salad Sandwich and the Muffaletta were great! The bread is delicious! Will be back to try more items!“

“great food, clean place, quick and efficient“

“Excellent desserts and great service. However, the owner desperately needs to consider having two employees working the dessert counter. Having one employee making drinks and preparing desserts for patrons creates an unnecessarily long queue and overwhelms the worker on duty.“

“The most delicious empanadas!!! The Asian Dumpling was our favorite. 100% highly recommend!!“

“While other wedding cake bakeries told me no to the flavors I wanted, multiple flavors on the different layers, and even the design, Jenny said yes and that's easy. After being told no so many times and tasting dry, flavorless cakes, I was at a loss on where to get a wedding cake. A coworker recommend Sweet Life and I contacted Jenny and we set up a tasting for all the flavors I was interested in. We ended up getting 3 different flavors for the different layers because they were so good that I couldn't choose. Jenny also told me the design I picked out was easy for them to do. The cake was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. I was very glad I asked for pieces of the cake to be brought to our suite so we could try some of the delicious wedding cake since the rest of the cake was eaten at the reception.“

“The king cakes are AMAZING!!!! I've tried several things from this bakery and everything so far has been delish!! The people there are so friendly. Reminded me of going to McKenzie's as a child. Can't wait to get another king cake this weekend for the parades.“

“Oh my goodness ! Beats krispy Kream hands down!!! They have the best donuts and smoothies. I tried the boudin Kolache it was amazing ! I’m calling them Boulaches lol very good. Friendly people.“

“The cake is delicious and the icing is even better. The staff is always polite and very helpful.“

“Got some amazing desserts earlier today… There were so many options, I ended up with a big box of goodies. And that berry cheesecake was fantastic!“

“Awesome atmosphere with amazing owners who go out of their way to give doggo visitors plenty of love“

“Perfect cookies for any occasion.“

“I recently just moved to the neighborhood so I was really delighted that I would get the opportunity to visit this wonderful place they have such delicious food. However what I do not like is that they have horrible service and the attitude of the staff is lackluster that it is very confusing when you walk in there as far as directions. That aside they tend to miss plate items simple as meat and bacon I have to keeping me waiting seems that I was number 16 and they call 17 18 19 20 then I became a little concerned they hastily put together my plate where the items did not match my order it was no due diligence in checking the tickets to make sure that the items match with the person actually paid for as if there’s no kitchen manager or it’s just a free-for-all back there seems I’ve worked in the kitchen previous places I can spot the weakness maybe they need a staff that’s more enthusiastic about working at such a fine establishment and if they can appreciate that maybe that whole family dynamic atmosphere that they try to create something that’s really a hindrance to the business model and with overall discourage people who want to return and spend their heart on money so that they can keep this black on establishment on and Poppin but as you can see this is why people say black on establishment suck and black on businesses suck and they don’t give you a type of business and respect that you deserve because Black people suck but as another black person I’m not able to say that because that means that I suck so what a predicament this put me in oh my gosh and bring back the turkey Bacon please.“

“The Best! Thank you Aunt Dotti and David.William and Victoria loved the Canoli cake! The rehearsal dinner people loved it!“

“Amazing and delicious jobs on all my cakes! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻“

“I was uptown visiting my sister and passed by here.Back in the day when I wanted to use Daddy's car ,I would pick him up from work and would drop by here and they would have the bread hot and ready when we came. Once we got home, we added a little Parkay butter, and oooh wee dinner would be so good .
The colonel was the best dad in the neighborhood. All the kids looked up to my parents because they loved everyone. Good memories
, yall, be blessed!“

“Great staff with great breakfast and lunch selections!“

“First, an absolutely beautiful wedding cake that actually tastes delicious and so amazingly fresh! Rare to find in our area! Second, the nicest folks you will ever work with!!! La Louisiane Bakery is so professional and full of talent!“

“Food on my daughter’s birthday was great!! And Don Jose is on top of everything. Thank you so much. 💖💖“

“The beignets here are the best in town BUT! they charge $2 to take your order over the phone. Aside from that hiccup I really enjoyed this place

Apparently they stop making beignets at 5pm but I never found any signage warning of that. Just a heads up“

“If you're lucky enough to have ever visited this place then you know why I say that you are lucky. Where else can you find good Texas toast for a dollar and just about any other product in there also is for a dollar? In addition to the ridiculously cheap wholesale prices the staff is amazing and friendly. Like the Dos Equis beer man was say I don't always eat bread but when I do I get it from here.“

“Great food and coffee. Recommended!!“

“WOW!!!!!!!! Today I had Nothing But Bundt Cakes deliver a beautiful red velvet Bundt cake and an assortment of mini Bundt cupcakes to my daughter who is attending a conference in New Orleans. I could never imagined that I would have such an extraordinary experience like this from a business establishment outside of my own neighborhood!L Lorraine Lanzilotta is such an amazing person to deal with. Her kindness, professionalism, helpfulness and beyond outstanding customer service offered gave me chills! This employee treated me as if we had been friends for many years! She made the entire process so much fun and personalized my order knowing how much the recipient (my daughter) would just LOVE her baked goods. Lorraine’s interpersonal skills and attention to detail are like no one else’s . I sent the most creative and charming cake and cupcakes to Nikki for a special celebration…and not only did she ensure it was artistically designed and personalized to perfection, but she also wrapped it in cellophane and attached a gorgeous notecard. My girl received it less than an hour from when I placed the order and was blown away by the presentation. Nothing But Bundt Cakes earned my business today and certainly deserves to earn yours. FUN FACT:Coming in March this franchise will be opening up in my neighborhood. ANOTHER FUN FACT:Lorraine Lanzilotta is as sweet as the cakes that she sells at the bakery; MAKE SOMEONE’S DAY AND HAVE ONE DELIVERED TODAY!“
