Villa Italia Reviews
today October 31.after taking my wife to dinner.we arrived at 510pm to get dessert. what kind of place closes at 500pm when one of the largest shows is at Proctors and you close,ruining people's date nights.very disappointed. maybe you should go out of business if you don't want to be open and work.
BEST CAKE!!! I called to order a sheet cake for an Italian themed 40th Birthday Party!! I didn’t specifically request any particular design but explained that it was an Italian theme. I was absolutely blown away on how amazing they made this cake look. On top of how beautiful it looked, it was probably one of the best cakes we had ever tasted. We ordered the Italian strawberry and it was out of this world. If I could give them a 10 out of five, I would.!!
I called weeks ahead of time to specifically ask if I would be able to get a 8" gluten free cake and a 10" cake on December 22nd. Knowing it would be busy, I wanted to make sure. Oh yes, of course. I received a call back even. Just make sure you confirm 4 days prior. I called 5 days prior to confirm and they refused my order. We are too busy. Wait, I called and....dial tone. Thanks for great customer service. Very disappointed 😕

Villa Italia is a bakery known for its welcoming and friendly customer service. They offer free street parking on weekends, making it convenient for visitors. The iced coffee and pastries are praised for their freshness and delicious taste, while the specialty coffee, including the popular machiatto, is also well-liked. Customers have enjoyed the exquisite desserts, especially the cakes, which can be customized for special occasions such as birthdays and confirmations. The bakery is praised for their perfect chocolate cake and the moist yellow cake filled with fresh strawberries and vanilla custard, topped with light buttercream frosting, which many say tastes just like strawberry shortcake. While the bakery is usually clean and efficient, there have been instances of confusion during busy times, such as the day before Easter. The environment is beautiful, and the bakery supports local charity events, showing their commitment to the community. Although seating is limited and there are no restrooms, the staff is generally helpful and kind, making it a favorite spot for many customers.
