We are new to the area but a visit in person is a must. A big thanks to John for his generosity and the best bake goods we have ever had. Baking from scratch with fresh ingredients and your skill produces the ultimate treat!“

“Calidad frescura excelente servicio la comida riquisima recomendado al 💯 ambiente agradable“

“My favorite local bakery. So many fantastic options it's almost overwhelming. Personally I live so close that I've gone enough that I've been trying to try everything at least once and 4 months later I still haven't completed the task haha. No disappointments though!!“

“My family has shopped here for many years and so thankful to visit for excellent bakery.“

“Boba tea in so many flavors! Chicken teriyaki is delicious, as is all the buns and treats.“

“Atlanta Plumbers has treated me well for over a decade. I use them in all my homes and will continue. Working with them is always fun. I have panicked and called them many times. Every time the broken item was replaced or repaired. They replaced my water heater, fixtures, and bathrooms. Fully trust this company. The best plumber in town, Alijah, works there. Alijah is so knowledgeable that competing plumbers consult him. You won't regret choosing Atlanta Plumbers.“

“Stopped by today,ham and cheese croissant that was great. Only problem was my dog was trying to intercept bites which created a dicey ,situation,but he got some and was quite happy.“

“Everything they serve is amazing! Cassata cakes, cannoli, tiramisu, cookies… all the best. Staff is wonderful and welcoming.“

“I called early in the morning, last minute unfortunately because that’s just what happened. Slices was able to accommodate me, I ordered a praline cheesecake and it was SOOO GOOD! Thank you so much for taking my order last minute and making this amazing cake!“

“Mitchell was amazing! Even during the busy Friday night feast, he went above and beyond, running around to get everything I wanted and even stepping outside to grab me a loaf of bread. He was efficient, thoughtful, and incredibly sweet. Thank you, Mitchell!!“

“Servicio excelente. Comida muy fresca y deliciosa. Todo limpio. Y muy típico de Puerto Rico. Decoración del local bellísima. Me sentí como en mi patria. Los recomiendo 200%“

“I had high hopes for Bella Luna, touted as the best spot for empanadas in the city, but my experience was nothing short of dismal. From the moment I stepped inside, I was met with a shocking level of rudeness from the cashier, who also happened to be the cook. His attitude was appalling; it felt as though he was genuinely irritated that we dared to enter the establishment.

Every interaction was a struggle, as he mumbled out responses that left me wondering if he even wanted to be there. When I asked about the menu, his dismissive reply about the lack of Spanish rice was almost enough to make me walk out before placing an order. It’s hard to believe that a place with such a reputation could deliver such terrible customer service. I drove all the way from Akron, expecting a delightful meal, only to be met with disgust and disdain. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere for a welcoming dining experience.“

“I go there every week to buy food and/or baked goods. They have catered parties for me! Highly recommended!“

“Old school donut and pastry shop. Everything I've tried has been amazing!!“

“Loved this bakery and we were customers for years - even driving over from Fairview Park for their yummy bread, pizza and treats. Just found out they are open for holiday orders and we WILL be ordering from them because we haven't found any place that compares!“

“Seen this posted on my timeliness and wanted to check it out! I was not disappointed! Cute space very comfortable and clean! Love the music vibes. We visited on a Thursday it wasn't crowded at all!
Service was fast and friendly! Would definitely recommend it.
We had their shrimp and grits with a side of potatoes, and the salmon croquettes both dishes were delicious! Definitely will be back!“

“Always stock up on rye bread when in town. It was still steaming when being sliced. SO DELICIOUS!Somehow several boxes of cookies, bags of assorted pastries, and some brown mustard made its way into my bag too!“

“They are the oldest and most authentic Mediterranean cuisine in Ohio which speaks for itself a staple of greater Cleveland. thank you for your services. great employees! great food great atmosphere where you can't get it anywhere else. over 38 years in the business!!!!“

“Great prices. Not as much choices compared to the last time I was there which was over 2 years ago. Still great place to go for basic breads and Texas toast. This is the only place I know that sells it. Awesome for French toast and homemade garlic bread. Great for parties and when large amount of breads, hotdog, burger or slider buns are needed. I gave it 4 stars and not 5 because it took at least 5 minutes to get someone to come assist us at check out. I entered the store, shopped for about 5-7 minutes and no one was in the front of the store. Not until after the gentleman shopper got someone from the back to come check us out. Either you should be more aware of your guest entering or a bell at the counter would be a great alternative. I will return when I have my next party though for the great discounts.“

“I'm giving this place 5 stars bc I believe the tres leches is one of the best in the country, absolutely best in CLE. You get a ton of the milk sauce which I love, it's a very generous portion, and it tastes amazing. The whipped cream on top is actual cream, so there's no weird aftertaste that you get with cool whip. My favorite is the strawberry version , the tartness of the strawberries perfectly cuts the sweetness of the cake/milks. I can't recommend it enough!

I also love the cheese/guava pastries when they have them.“

“Made a last minute order for Thanksgiving. The service was great and much appreciated, but the pumpkin pie and peach cobbler were fantastic. - enjoyed by all. The pie was hands down the best I have ever tasted - including my grandmas. Thank you!“

“Great place. The staff is wonderful and the Lattes are good.“

“Came in from out of town and they were soooo welcoming!! Made us feel right at home and remembered us when we came in every morning. Gave us some yummy sweets for the road. Can’t recommend enough. Will be back here for sure!! 🩷🩷🩷“

“My partner and I stopped into Lake Erie Scoops and left absolutely blown away. We tried the birthday cake ice cream which was so fun and delicious, but the real star of the show was the Oreo cream pie. This was not just pie. This was a life-changing, time-stopping, everything-else-fades-away kind of pie. I am not exaggerating when I say it is the best pie I have ever eaten in my life. One bite felt like it should be written about in history books. It was that extraordinary.

We also loved how easy their to go setup was. More ice cream shops should take notes because it made the whole experience even sweeter. The owner was an absolute sweetheart who made us feel so welcome.

We are already talking about when we can come back because trust me, we will. Lake Erie Scoops is a true treasure“

“Anita at Anita’s Sweet Treats was an absolute delight to work with! She provided the most beautiful and delicious desserts for our associate appreciation event, and they were a huge hit with everyone. You can really tell she puts love and care into everything she bakes. Anita was professional, prompt, and so easy to work with throughout the entire process. Highly recommend her for any event!“

“Hands down my favorite place for ice cream. Unlimited options, and awesome prices.“

“The breakfast sandwich was so good. The bagels tasted very similar to the ones in NYC!! My mother was raving about it all weekend, and how it was one of the best she’s ever had! The prices are very good for the area and the staff is super friendly.“

“This place is fantastic! Consistently the best produce I've ever seen in a store and the staff are fantastic! Their deli is great too. Its definitely not the biggest place but it very well might be the best ive ever experienced. Chuppa is a must go to store if you live anywhere remotely close!“

“We stopped in for lunch and it exceeded our expectations! We ordered a ham sandwich on focaccia bread with potato, broccoli and cheddar soup, and the Claudio sandwich with white bread. It was all spectacular! The story of how the shop started was also sweet to read inside the restaurant. We will definitely stop here again next time we are in the area.“

“One of the best pierogi spots in town! The staff are very kind and helpful. Anytime I’m in town I plan to stop here! The pierogis, kielbasa, and pastries are absolutely delicious!“

“I ordered my cake from here for my baby shower and I was extremely impressed. It was the best cake I’ve ever had in my life. It was chocolate covered strawberries and had candy on top of it. It was amazing! The strawberries were super fresh and the icing was perfect! Everyone at the shower kept commenting on how delicious the cake was and asking where we got it from!“

“Great variety and quality! Very pleasant staff. They have the best pumpkin cheesecake I've ever had. Perfection!“

“I went for a quick dinner. 3 tacos and they were all tasty“

“Went there yesterday and the older gentleman gave us something called Limber it's delicious and the chicken and rice ohh they give you so much thank you again“

“My husband and daughter visited for the 1st time yesterday and I benefited with a box of baked good they brought back! The best cookies and brownies we have gotten yet! I cannot wait to return and try a sandwich! My husband said the sandwiches looked amazing!!!“

“I’ve been eating Orlando Bread and rolls and other products for quite awhile now and haven’t had any problems with it. Very tasty and satisfying no matter if I have it with breakfast - lunch or dinner . I have even warmed it up just before eating it and the outside crusty and the inside where it’s warm enough to melt the butter is excellent. Heck I even delivered mail to your plant , when I first stated delivering the mail in 1988 . Im glad your business is still going strong . I have nothing negative to say about Orlando !“

“▪︎☆Absolutely worth the try ..however not something I'd have often =but as a treat once a blue moon instead of a crispy creme =yepp 💯👊👌👏 indeedzy without a doubt..Looking forward to physically popping in2 ur 1st Sydney store soon x☆☆☆☆☆“

“Honestly i love this places, great family atmosphere and really great employees. There food is usually 5☆ but it was pretty disappointing today. We bought a buck of baklava and sweets and the neurs were mushy and soft. Everything that was supposed to be crispy was soggy and just not good, even the pistachios were soft and mushy. I've bought these same things in the past and they've been delicious so idk why today it was so bad. I probably won't buy the sweets that are pretty pricey again because of how bad they were.“

“Their Pound cake is great, homemade by somebody's Momma. Stopped for some crusty soft bread to go with some beef stew they had only one available and it was the rightone, it was crispy and flakey on the outside heated it just touch and butter and it was on. Yes I had forgot about this place almost went out the way then it hit me in my neighborhood. What a gem. Have tried many items I can't pronounce but it was GOOD all the same. Don't miss out. Only draw back no parking, park in postoffice lot.“

“We really love the cupcakes and truffles. Especially the german chocolate. :)“

“I went for a quick dinner. 3 tacos and they were all tasty“

“This place has the best bread.Olive bread is unbelievable.Rosemary bread is maybe the best toast I’ve ever had. I’ve eaten bread from all over the USA, and this place.... I mean, it puts the rest of the Midwest to shame.Thank you for making such good bread.If you go to Cleveland, go to West Side Market and get some!!!! We give it as gifts, we eat it out of the bag on the way home, and we miss it when we get home and can’t have it again for a while.....“

“First time here and will be back! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming! The prices are very competitive. The store was a little hard for me to find on google maps but well worth the visit once I made it in! Do your self a “flavor” and check this place out!“

“The chocolate truffle squares and mandel splinter were amazing!!“

“Great pizza and desserts!“

“Cute cafe in a quaint Cleveland neighborhood. The staff was friendly and the food was delicious.“
