Okay, when you willingly make the drive from Fullerton to Burbank for an almond croissant, that should tell you everything you need to know. My son found Altadena Bakery during one of his random college-area adventures while seeing it on social media and told me we HAD to go. I figured, sure, it's a bakery. How serious could this be? Apparently very serious. First of all, walking in and seeing that pastry case is dangerous. Everything is absolutely beautiful, the fruit-shaped desserts almost look too perfect to eat. Almost. We grabbed several because obviously self-control had already left the building. But the almond croissant? THAT is the reason for the drive for me. Flaky, buttery, perfectly crisp on the outside, soft inside, and filled with just the right amount of almond. No dry, sad croissant nonsense happening here. It was worth every mile from Fullerton to Burbank. Everything we tried was delicious, fresh, and almost ridiculously pretty. My kid definitely gets credit for finding this one. Altadena has officially become one of those places where, if we're anywhere remotely nearby, we're stopping. And by "remotely nearby," apparently I mean 40 miles away.

Had to see what the hype was about... Street parking was easy. The line was a little confusing. I grabbed a number then later discovered they were using them so I stood in line. It wasn't horrible, maybe 10 -15 minutes. I purchased a small cake and a cute dessert that resembled a strawberry. Both were like artwork. The cake was tasty, but a little dry. The strawberry dessert was lite and delicious. Service was super friendly and helpful. I will have to return to try more of the desserts that resemble fruit.

There are not many pastry store on Gleanoks blvd on Burbank city and this one of the good ones. They have variety of pasties, very colorful and tasty but sweet. We purchased variety of cheesecakes, birdmilk, caramel pastry. Cheesecakes are ok but not the best the rest was good but sweet. Busy store but staff were helpful and taking care of customers atthe time. Sittings are available on sidewalk.

This bakery is addictive!! Once you go, you will definitely go back. Their mousse filled cakes are divine. I've tried the green apple and lemon. Also I've had their Dubai cake. Not as chocolaty as the bar but still good! Service is very helpful. They want to get your order to keep the lines moving. I admit, it's easy to just look with amazement at the pastry counter LOL. The inside has a few tables alongside the windows but everyone mostly sits outside or get things to go. Next time we go, will definitely try their pizza.

2nd visit and really love this place. Today I got the vanillabean pastry so yummy. This place is way better than the other tik tok famous k town place. Prices $10 to $15. Today got parking in front. Plan to return to try even more. Mushroom still a favorite.

Pistachio croissant $6. & honey cake. $4.25
Daryl D.

I think I'm missing something here. I know they're known for their fruit desserts, but it's not new to me so I passed up on those. I had a slice of their honey cake and a pistachio croissant and I wasn't impressed. The honey cake was okay; it's on the drier side. The croissant had pistachio filling and pistachio chocolate coating which was nice. The big disappointment was the croissant itself. It wasn't flakey and didn't taste fresh at all. Such a disappointment.

$10 each, but the mushroom one was 15

I went here today, and I was really surprised how large this place was. It wasn't busy at all and the service was outstanding. The mushroom one was delicious for the fruit dessert but it was $15. I can see why because the stem was really hard and it had really good texture throughout. I seriously, wanna go back and try all the flavors. They are also beautiful. I also got a steak sandwich which was about a 20 minute wait to make but really delicious. It had like an avocado cream sauce throughout and was toasted. There was plenty of street parking. As mentioned before there is a 3% charge to use your credit card.

Fruit Mousse (Mango Madness), peach, and raspberry
Cyndy N.

Alright, I'll be the first to say it. The viral mousse desserts were not that great. The mango had purée in it and it was so little. It was an overwhelming amount of mousse in each one. I thought there was suppose to be a wafer or little cake piece to help balance the mousse. However, I was really disappointed in the lack of flavor. But the peach was probably the top one out do the mango and raspberry I also purchased. We walked in and they were super busy on a Sunday morning. Customers everywhere and there is no sitting space. Maybe 2 high top tables but it was suffocating in there. The service was okay. I believe they didn't speak much English except for the cashier and it was a struggle but we made it through. They do have other desserts that I would come back to try. But it definitely was not worth $10 per mousse dessert. If you want to try it because it's viral, then I recommend it. But I didn't really like it.

Our first time here it's been on our list and finally had a chance to go. Customer service was great young lady was super friendly and helpful We picked a lot of desserts to try they look amazing and so cute My granddaughter had a blast picking out her desserts Everything was really good very flavorful and looked like a different kinda fruit A few were a bit more pricey because of the design This is definitely a place to splurge every once in awhile We paid $84 dollars for everything we got We even ordered a pizza and it was absolutely delicious! Would definitely go back again

I visited this location again recently. This is the closest bakery to where I live so I usually go there to pick up pastries. They have really good pastries and they taste good. Unfortunately, most of the items don't have prices so it gets confusing. I had to ask the employees several times for the price of the items. For service, some employees are nice and friendly. They take the time to help customers and don't make you feel rushed. But some employees are not that friendly. This bakery can get really busy on the weekends. There are long lines for ordering. This bakery has several tables outside which makes it convenient to order coffee and pastries and enjoy them by sitting outside. For parking, this bakery has a parking lot in the back and also street parking is available too. This location prefers cash transactions and cash is welcomed. They are charging 3% credit card fee for all transactions.

My family and I flew in early to Burbank airport. It was too early to check into our hotel so we decided to stop in for a quick bite to eat and try one of their viral, fruit mousse pastries. The bakery is less than 10 minute drive from the Burbank airport. It was not too busy on a Saturday around 11 AM, but there was a study flow of customers coming in to pick up their cake orders or to pick up a few pastry items. The employees were nice and knowledgeable about the bakery's offerings. There are a few small tables with chairs to sit at to quickly enjoy your delicious bakery items, pizza, sandwich, coffee and/or other offerings. We ordered the popular Armenian Pizza for lunch, the viral fruit mousse pastry (mango which is most popular) and a hazelnut eclair. Everything we had was delicious and highly recommended. Their many real-looking fruit mousse pastries are $10 each, but well worth the cost as they are delicious, not too sweet and very satisfying to cut/bite into. If you are in the Burbank area and want to try something different or some more familiar food items, you should definitely come to Alta Dena Bakery.

Love this bakery! We heard about this bakery through social media, so we decided that we had to give them a try. I ordered several types of pastries and a breakfast sandwich. I'm not super familiar with Armenian food, so I didn't know what to expect. I mistakenly assumed it would be like most bakery's. My group and I had mixed reviews on the pastries. Some were really yummy, and some were a little dry. With coffee, I'm sure they would have been great. Overall, I still really really liked the selections that I enjoyed. For my sandwich, we were very thrown off by whatever flavoring/seasoning they put in the eggs. We were not a fan. Like I said, not used to Armenian food, so maybe this was a thing, and our taste buds aren't adjusted. But... The rest of the sandwich was great. Well made, and very tasty bread! Minus the flavoring in the eggs, it was a perfect sandwich. The stag was helpful, but not the most hospitable. They handled business though, so no worries there. Overall, a good visit. If I were nearby, I'd visit again.

Skirt Steak Sandwich

I always pass by and can't believe I've never been here before. Altadena was amazing. The food was delicious and they had such a huge selection of pastries and desserts. There were so many croissants, cakes, and baked goods to choose from. We ended up getting a Nutella croissant and a pistachio croissant, plus the steak and chicken sandwich. Everything was fresh and really flavorful. We also ordered the hazelnut coffee which paired perfectly with the pastries. Before leaving I made sure to grab two tiramisus to go and they were just as good as everything else. This place is seriously delicious, and honestly that's an understatement. I definitely see myself coming back again. I originally saw their pizza and Cajun fries advertised on Instagram, so I'll definitely be coming back to try those next.

Do the desserts contain animal gelatin?

Well, I checked out their pastries, and it would seem that no there's no gelatin in their pastries and that their pastries are a cream and compote filling.

Do they serve halal meat?

Well, they do have pizzeria and what you can get on the pizza is a wide variety of different topics. Halal meat? Idk for sure, I would think most likely.

How have I not been here before? I've seen this restaurant and have heard good things, and finally…read moredecided to drop by for lunch. Located right in downtown Burbank, you walk in and order at the counter, you get a number, and they bring the food out to your table when ready. It's very casual, plenty of seating inside and outside. Staff were super friendly and welcoming, which is a huge deal and very rare nowadays. They even had a new happy hour special. Who doesn't love a $3 beer with lunch? As for the food, I was thoroughly impressed! Pastrami melt was amazing! Full of delicious pastrami, melted cheese, and pickles. So delicious! Fries looked like they were actual fresh made fries, not frozen, which was a nice surprise. I could also tell that they make their ranch from scratch. The bbq chicken sandwich was also delicious. Side salad was super fresh. Everything was so delicious! Portions nice; prices fair. I am impressed with Wild Carvery because I could tell that the ingredients are fresh and the quality is high. I also suspect that they make their own pickles? But I'm not sure. If quality and freshness are important to you, I highly recommend checking out Wild Carvery. I can't wait to come back and try their burgers.

Good service at the counter Multiple parking options…read morescattered around downtown Burbank Fresh, tasty French rolls for the pastrami sandwich I am not a fan of the make up of the condiments on the pastrami sandwich. Not the quality but mix of ingredients. I found the sandwich to be sloppy and the condiments hid the taste of the pastrami. I will be back to try another sandwich and add additional data point to future reviews
