“I’m Soo in love with this place“

“Rispoli Bakery is my absolute go-to for ALL occasions! Their desserts and pastries are always top-notch—beautifully crafted, incredibly delicious, and made with such artistry and care. The entire team is so professional, friendly, and an absolute pleasure to work with. When it came to catering my husband’s 40th birthday, there was no question—I knew Rispoli Bakery was the only choice! I was overwhelmed with so many event details and had no idea what kind of cake or dessert selection I wanted. Enter Rose—an absolute lifesaver! She guided me through the entire selection process, offering expert recommendations on flavors, quality, and variety. I sent over an inspiration photo for the cake, and when I saw the final result, I was speechless. Rispoli didn’t just match the photo—they far exceeded it! It was a true masterpiece, and I was so moved that I actually cried when I saw it (lol). The dessert spread was so impressive. Every single guest raved about how incredible everything tasted, constantly asking, “Where are these amazing desserts from?!” Thanks to Rose and the team’s thoughtful recommendations, every choice was a home run. I cannot say enough good things about Rose and the entire Rispoli Bakery family. Their talent, professionalism, and warm, welcoming nature make them a joy to work with. Thank you for making my husband’s birthday so special—you’ve gained a lifelong customer! ♡“

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.“

“Conveniently located on NJ-23 Palazzone 1960 is a great spot for Italian food and pastries. Oh and the coffee is also excellent.

Staff is so welcoming and attentive. Service was fast.

Location is small but it’s perfect. Means they focus on the customer they have. You don’t feel rushed.“

“I’ve been going to this place for about 2 years now (I box at a gym nearby hence why I go so often). I come here about two to four times a week. The food is pretty cheap especially for its quality. I usually get the Yuca empanadas, beef empanadas, or chicken empanadas. Dessert wise I usually get the Tiramisu or brownies. I can say without a doubt it is one of the best places I’ve ever ate at. The workers are very friendly. Most of the workers know both Spanish and English too which is very helpful. There are plenty of places to sit and eat and it has a very welcoming atmosphere. They’re always playing music (at the perfect volume never to loud never to quiet). The food always comes out quick too.

Dietary restrictions: I know both the beef empanadas and chicken empanadas (and I’m pretty sure the Yucas) are all gluten free which has come in handy when I catered for a party once.“

“The best bagel and breakfast spot in the state! Their food is amazing and so is the service.“

“enjoy her delicious cupcakes tonight for dessert. her cupcakes are moist and the butter cream icing isn't over sweet. she does amazing work and everything is eye Appling. Definitely be order my daughters first birthday cake from her“

“The best spot after a winter hike in Harriman. Got a fresh baked banana cream pie for the family and a black and white cookie. Such a wonderful assortment of items and staff was very friendly. My favorite was saying hi to the gentle giant Goliath who is the sweetest doggo. Will definitely be 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!“

“son los mejores pasteles, gelatinas, galletas, etc, etc (todo)que he probado en el condado“

“Working with Priscilla on a cake for my son's 3rd birthday was a great experience! She was easy to connect with via text & email and the cake was absolutely delicious. She delivered for a small fee too, which made my life so much easier! I definitely recommend Humble Crumbles Bakery!“

“I drive past hot bagel every day for the past couple of years and never knew it was there. Stopped in on Tuesday, got an everything bagel with olive cream cheese, and by far the best bagel I’ve ever had. Today I stopped and got a ham, egg and cheese, and again best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had. You now have a very happy new customer.“

“I purchased a custom cupcake cake for my mom's 65th birthday party and I couldn't be happier with the cake and the whole process of working with David's Custom Cake. They went over every detail with me thoroughly, making sure the inspiration pictures I gave them were tailored to exactly what I wanted. They made payment and pick up very easy and were extremely friendly, caring, and professional. And the bonus- it was DELICIOUS! I recommend getting your cake here for any occasion!

From start to finish, she was communicative and professional, ensuring that my exact design idea was brought to life flawlessly.

“Best Sweet Potato Pie on the planet. I have eaten them all and this one out of Paterson NJ is the best by far. My family has been buying them for the past 25 years. And it's the same as it tasted 25 years ago. They now have a banana pudding that's out of this world. Can't wait to taste whatever else they develop“

“Palazzone Pastry Labs and had a mixed experience. The pastries themselves were quite good, with a nice variety and fresh ingredients. I particularly enjoyed the cannoli, which had a delightful filling and a perfectly crisp shell.

However, the service left much to be desired. The servers were not very friendly, which took away from the overall experience. A bit more warmth and attentiveness from the staff would go a long way in making customers feel welcome and valued.

Overall, while the pastries are worth trying, the service could use some improvement to enhance the overall experience at Palazzone Pastry Labs.“

“pozole y quesadillas tacos bistek“

“The best!“

We even bring these bagels to friends and family around the world! Every bagel is the best and the service is top notch. Go out of your way to get bagels here and taste the best!

Parking: Plenty of street parking

Kid-friendliness: Kids love bagels“

“As soon as you come in you are hit with the sweet smell of baked goods. One of the best Mexican bakeries in Paterson area! Cash only spot! I bought the bag of assorted Mexican breads. Great pricing for quality breads. Baked goods are fresh and delicious. They are the perfect treat to have with coffee. Will always come back!“

“Just recently raised my review from 3 to 4 stars. The cookies and mini pastries are spectacular. Will have to work my way through the cakes next. Might up it to five stars. The macarons were a bit less crisp than my wife would have liked, but I blame that on the humidity and transport (I took too long enjoying the sunshine, nothing against the bakery), otherwise they were wonderful.“
