“Terrific people. Delicious food.“

“The best macaroons. The crème brûlée and Ferrero rocher were my favs!“

“Delicious empanadas, and desserts! More than just cakes, stop in for a delicious treat like I did!!“

“Wish Upon a Pastry is a great Disney Inspired bakery in NJ. Michele and Torre, the owners are so nice and great to work with. They have really unique baked goods that are all absolutely delicious. They also take special orders. They are not dedicated gluten free but they offer a lot of gluten free options that are just as delicious as their other bakery items. I highly recommend this business.“

“I don't usually write long Google reviews, but after attending a buddy’s wedding in North Jersey recently, I had to drop one for this place.
Honestly, I’m not even a big cake guy, but the dessert setup at the reception caught my attention right away. They had this huge, multi-tiered custom wedding cake that looked awesome really clean work, not over the top, just super high quality. My wife and I were actually talking about how great it looked before they even cut into it.
When we finally got our slices, I expected the usual wedding cake thing: looks great, tastes like dry cardboard or straight sugar. But man, this thing was actually insane. Super moist, fresh, and tasted legit. I finished mine in about two minutes and ended up grabbing half of my wife’s slice too. It was so good I walked over to the groom during the party just to ask where they got it. He told me they had it custom designed at D’era House.
Finding a cake designer around North Jersey that makes something that actually tastes as good as it looks is pretty rare. I saved their info on my phone right then and there for our next family event.
If you’re looking for a solid wedding cake designer, custom made tiered cakes, or custom event cakes in Clifton or anywhere in the area, D’era House is 100% the real deal. Props to the baker! 💍🍰💪“

“I’ve been living in the U.S. for 15 years and I still can’t believe I never heard about this place before. The baklava was incredible, and the syrupy dessert with clotted cream inside (I forgot the name) was absolutely amazing. Definitely one of the best dessert spots I’ve tried.“

“Erie is amazing. Highly recommend - coffee is absolutely the best - lattes and all different flavors - hot and cold! The banana bread is my favorite but All of the different baked goods are to die for! Never had anything but excellent here. The owners and the baristas and ALL of the staff are friendly and truly provide the BEST service! If I lived in Rutherford I’d be here every day!“

“The best Persian sweets ever!!! Faranak Joon is the owner and she created the most beautiful Sofreh Haftseen for my wedding. She made sure everything was perfect, she showed up extra early and she is not the type of person to cancel even if an emergency comes up on your wedding day. She’s very reliable, understanding, kind, detail oriented, and amazing at what she does. I highly recommend her for all brides who want to have the most elegant sofreh haft seen you will ever see!!!“

I have a feeling it will become a regular occurrence. Thanks for never disappointing us!“

“I had a fantastic bagel with lox at this cafe. The lady at the counter was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the cafe itself was spotless, cozy, and inviting. If I ever come back to New Jersey, I’ll definitely stop by for breakfast again!“

“My son was recently diagnosed with EOE and is dairy, nut and egg free. Someone recommended AltEats so I contacted Laurie and she worked her magic!

I can’t say enough about how easy Laurie was to work with and how lucky I feel blessed I feel to have found this establishment!“

The cookies are my absolute favorite—a must-try! On top of that, the staff is extremely helpful, friendly, and attentive. This is definitely a place I will keep coming back to. Highly recommended!“

“Literally the best Knafe in all of Paterson. Better than any other spot. Most authentic Knafe I've tasted in America. The most similar I've seen to this one was in Chicago. And I've tried plenty of Knafe in America.

Also their Znud Al Sit are amazing. I usually call in the morning to make an order by noon time for best results.“

“Absolutely perfect! Everything is delicious, fresh, and made with so much care. We come all the way from Upstate New York to Baladna Bakery, and it’s definitely worth the drive! Everything is so good, and we highly recommend it. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!“

“Delicious and fresh food- full of flavor, lots of veggie options, great baked goods.“

“Thank you Veriella’s Bakery and Cafe for this awesome cake for my son’s 10th birthday. He was so happy! Can’t thank you enough!“

“Tried the USR location this morning as it's located around the corner from my office. Front staff was friendly, attentive, and helpful with assisting me to navigate options as a first time visitor. There was no line and I quickly received my to-go order. The ham, egg, and cheese croissant was delicious- fluffy and flaky, not at all greasy, and the perfect cheese pull. Can't wait to return to try desserts and coffee!“

“We took our first-ever trip to Stew Leonard’s, and it completely lived up to the hype.
Right from the entrance, the customer service stood out—every team member we encountered was genuinely warm, welcoming, and helpful. The kid-sized shopping carts were an instant hit, keeping our little one happily engaged while we explored the aisles.
A big reason we decided to visit was a recommendation comparing their soft-serve ice cream to the classic Mister Softee experience—giving you all that sweet childhood nostalgia without having to stand next to idling truck fumes. It delivered on that promise and then some.
Beyond the fun atmosphere, the product selection across the store is fantastic. We loaded up on several Stew Leonard’s brand items to bring home, and every single product has been top quality and delicious. It turns ordinary grocery shopping into a fun family outing, and we will definitely be going back!“

“Best Italian bread around and very reasonably priced in my opinion. Italian pastries are delicious also. Even if you don't live too close by there, it is worth a trip every once in awhile to get really good bread especially for Sunday gravy/sauce. They are open many hours so it's very convenient.“

“My son’s Lego Birthday Cake was a home run. The cake was delicious and definitely fresh. The cake was moist and the filling was smooth. All of the guests commented how great the cake tasted. The design of the cake exceeded our expectations. Thank You, We Bake Fresh for making my son’s birthday extra special. We will be recommending you to our friends and family.“

“I highly recommend people try out their cupcakes, shortbread cookies, strawberry shortcake, and their cakes. Delicious and Satisfying💯😋😋You will get you moneys worth.“

“Sweet spot in Ridgewood with great pastries, treats and coffees. They have a ton of homemade coffee syrups and fun drinks. I got an iced mocha and it was very good. The decor inside is very fun, I especially dig the parrot chandelier. Definitely worth stopping in while you're in Ridgewood.“

“My kiddos love all the dessert options here but the mochi donuts are their favorite while us adults are convinced they make the best almond croissants and stuffed croissants ever! The Nutella offerings have been delicious too! The king donuts are superior to any Boston crepe I’ve ever tried! So many options. We only go for desserts but I know they offer sandwiches too! Just a place worth walking to especially if you’re already in town and paid for parking in the vicinity. Enjoy the options cuz there’s just so many to choose from! We go back often, it never ever disappoints! We even bought the cappuccino cake for a special birthday because we loved how it looked and it tasted just as great!!!“

“This cute bake shop is small, but dense, providing various flavors and products that are hard to find vegan. The cake truffles (Red Velvet and Fudge Brownie) were amazing—fudgy and flavorful on the inside with just enough icing. The cupcakes (tiramisu and Old Skool) were moist with rich filling at the center and a sufficient amount of frosting. Sweet Avenue deserves their due. I hope I can return one day to try more!

“muy buen vizcocho me gusto mucho“

“This space is beautiful! The food is delightful. The best part of the whole experience, however, was the very sweet manager. I was the first customer of the day and she treated me with so much warmth and kindness. She made my drink with so much love. Can’t wait to return.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Restaurant Experience! ❤️ I came across this unique and beautiful restaurant while searching online. I was looking for a special place to take my family out for dinner because it was my oldest son's birthday. I also read the history of this beautiful place, Father a Son team and it sounded like something down our alley and my son would really love to experience. Oh my goodness! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such a warm and welcoming attitude. We were seated in the best spot, and they even brought out a high chair for my grandson. We try to put him in high chairs but he just doesn't like them. This little guy wants to be a big boy already😂❤️ Our waiter, Ali I believe that was his name, was absolutely the best! He was so approachable, funny, and well mannered with all of us. He even joked around with my grandson, which made the experience even more special. Thank u! Everything we had was delicious! From the warm bread with olives and olive oil to the appetizers, to our main dishes and oh my goodness, those drinks🍹 They were to die for! Now that's what I call, “Call me an Uber!” 😂 They definitely were not stingy with the alcohol, and those drinks were so good! 😉 They even brought out a little dessert for my son to celebrate his birthday, and it was so, so good and absolutely delicious! 🎂❤️ I rate this restaurant 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Honestly, if I could give them double the stars, I gladly would! Thank you for treating my family as if we were right at home and we did feel as were home❤️ Your hospitality, food, drinks, and wonderful service made my son's birthday dinner truly memorable and ours too! We will definitely be back! ❤️ and this time we would love to seat in that beautiful garden outside❣️“

“I stopped in for some pastries and ended up leaving with so much more than just something sweet. The macaroons were absolutely delicious, perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside. You can really tell they’re made with care.

What truly made my experience, though, was Renee. She was incredibly kind, welcoming, and just radiated such positive energy. She had no idea I was having a really hard day, but her attitude genuinely lifted my spirits more than she probably realizes. It’s rare to come across someone who makes that kind of impact in such a simple interaction.

Between the amazing treats and the even better service, I’ll definitely be coming back.

(P.S) I’m the girl that was sitting in the car!

Thank you buttercup!“

“first time visiting. Ashley M. was friendly and knowledgeable. cakes are delicious. I will be back!“

“See ya Sook! Bourbon Street Beignet is now my favorite local pastry shop. Born in New Orleans (Charity Hospital-1952) and lived in Paris for a few years as a teenager. Jules does a great job with all his pastries. The beignets were warm, fresh and tasty and on par with Cafe du Monde in NOLA. Will be coming here again.......soon!“

“I’ve counted on Despina and her team for custom cakes for multiple special occasions (birthdays, baptisms, weddings, dinner parties). They exceed expectations every time. Not only are the cakes beautiful, but the flavors and quality of the product is top notch. Communication is clear, detailed, and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Cream to anyone looking for a special way to celebrate!“
