This place is amazing. Their deserts are delightful.

I've had some of the cookies and cannolis that a coworker brought into work. Finally was in the area and decided to check out the rest of the bakery. I'd say the Blueberry donut and cinnamon roll/danish were the best things I had here. The Blueberry and chocolate donuts were decent donuts, thinking it's because they were cake donuts. The vanilla frosted donut was ok, just a bit dry and not so fluffy. The cinnamon roll, I asked if it was a danish due to how it looked and they called it a roll. It was very buttery and had a solid icing, just was a more flaky dough which made think it probably was a danish and not a roll. A solid old school Italian bakery.

Good cheap pastries but why are there no prices on anything??? I would’ve bought way more if I had known everything was so dirt cheap. Really bad business

Never disappointed when I leave here. By far our favorite bakery around!! Their ability to customize a cake to just about anything you'd like is outstanding! Their cheesecake is the best around. I've never been disappointed with their wide selection of pastries and baked goods.

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.

We did a custom cake for our daughter’s first birthday and this turned out to be amazing!!. So delicious in every bite the team at Villa definitely understands the assignment when it comes to the perfect chocolate cake. This is pure perfection 10/10.

Villa Italia made the most beautiful confirmation cake for my daughter! It was decorated perfectly with autumn colors and a lovely gold cross. The cake itself was a moist yellow cake filled with fresh strawberries and vanilla custard, topped with light buttercream frosting — absolutely delicious! My daughter loved it, and my family said it tasted just like strawberry shortcake. Thank you for making her day extra special!

Everything is fabulous! The cappuccino, smoothies and of course all of the baked goods! We order cakes for Birthdays and they are excellent!

Firs of all let me say this place has fantastic pastries. Every other aspect of the business is why they only get 2 stars. First off last week I called to order a blackout cake for pickup today. I was Informed over the phone that a 10” round blackout cake would be $39.99+ tax. When I got to the location today I was informed that the cake would be $46.50 + a $10.00 custom cake fee. First of all $46.50 is $6.51 over the quoted price on the phone. Second of all when I ordered the cake I was not informed whatsoever of a $10.00 custom cake fee. These extra charges were sprung on me at the register. The only reason I ended up paying for the cake was because I originally ordered the cake because a different plan already fell through and if this one did as well I would be facing an issue regarding a loved one’s birthday. It is totally unacceptable to get hit with a total of $16.51 in extra charges at the register over what I was told the price would be over the phone. I asked the guy who worked there and he said the $10.00 charge alone was valid because of the crumbles they put on the cake which I think is BS in itself because this cake is on their menu to begin with. There were no extras added to the cake by me and no inscriptions or anything to customize the cake. If they are going to throw extra charges at you they need to tell you when you originally order the product. I found the entire process to be extremely slimy and I know find them to be untrustworthy along with being ready and willing to take advantage of any situation that presents itself to them.

We used Villa Italia as our wedding bakery and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. It was so easy to order our cake tasting from the bakery! When we decided on what we wanted, Tricia was the most helpful in executing everything we wanted for our big day from our wedding cake to adding on delicious cookies and pastries as well. We are so grateful for the treats that made our wedding extra sweet! Huge thank you from The Gallaghers!!

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.!!
