I ordered the pistachio and Nutella croissant, as well as their trendy mango and mushroom shaped mousses. The croissants were 10/10! I will definitely buy again. They're big enough to share. Very tasty and worth the $6. The fruit mousses were a bit pricier, very tasty too but you have to finish it right away because it can get messy. It's shareable if you have a spoon. The service was good, it wasn't as busy when my husband went. The ambience was friendly and like your typical family bakery/ cafes. read more

Altadena Bakery - Desserts Near Me - Burbank, California

I've been coming to Altadena Bakery for over 10 years at this point and I can't believe this is my first time reviewing. This review is for the cafe, though what I say here also goes for their bakery. I not only love the food, dessert, pastries, etc, but I love the atmosphere. It feel the way a bakery should, welcoming and homey and I have to say I have never had bad experience with service here. The employees all seem to be very happy working there and you can taste that in the food. We have ordered pizza and multiple kinds of sandwiches from here before but this time we tried something we hadn't tried yet and it was the chciken breast kabob sandwhich and it was wowww!! From the quality of the bread to the chicken to the other individual ingredients this was phenomenal. I do want to note I have a low spice tolerance so be warned that this is spicy if you are spice sensitive but despite the spice I absolutely loved this sandwhich and can't wait to come back for it. It is pricey but you can't beat the quality and the quantity. Also unlike so many bakeries and cafes in Burbank/Glendale this place has a lot of parking whether it's in the front on the street or the back lot that's their own parking and I really appreciate that. Also note that theres minimal seating inside but there are some spots outside to enjoy your food, we've just always done takeout. read more

I absolutely love this place. I tried the viral fruit shaped pastries and they were incredible, almost too cute to eat but definitely worth it. Everything was fresh and delicious. I bought six and honestly wanted four more but I was too full. The customer service was just as amazing as the food, very friendly and welcoming. Overall it was a wonderful experience and I will definitely be back to try the pizza next. read more

Best ajarski of my LIFE! Hands down. Look, if you were a kid in the 90s, yearning for the Pizza Hut stuffed cheese crust to be the dream scenario that their commercials presented, well look no further...you have found Nirvana, right here in Burbank with these ajarski. You can even get them with pepperoni An indulgent amount of the softest, creamiest, wonderfully stretchy cheese, filled straight into the folded edges of some of the most delightfully thin, soft, chewy, fresh crust this side of the 134...I can think of no other word than Heaven. Sheer heaven. They offer different topping options, and are famous for their pastrami, which I ordered and would order again! Eggs cooked to your specifications. I choose over medium and they came out more easy, but I was glad for that. It was just perfect for dipping. My partner ordered the Dav's Suprami Sandwich, which is the pastrami with extra stuff, ordered without peppers or tomatoes, but they did still put tomatoes in. We did not ask them to correct it because they were mostly easy to remove. Next time, we'd order the regular pastrami sandwich and just add mushrooms to it to avoid that. We lucked out and got to try their seasoned fries, which apparently they do not often have in stock. The standard fried are unseasoned. I hope they are able to get the seasoned ones in stock more regularly tho because they were awesome! We almost always add salt to our fries, but these didn't need it. We ate at the tables outside on Glenoaks Blvd, which was not too traffic-y. The building provided us with some nice shade from the hothothot afternoon sun. There are also a few small tables inside. You can take your order to go, but we wanted it fresh out of the oven! Everything arrived so hot and fresh that we could have made the drive home and still enjoyed melty cheese. I bet the pizzas are out of this world with that same delightful crust as the ajarski, and we can't wait to try them. Everyone here was so nice, helpful. The pizza guy talked to us for a long time about the food and suggested other specialties to try for next time. You order & pay with the bakery side cashier and then pick up (or have your food brought to you) by the other side. We will definitely be back here, probably often! These people clearly care about their food and their customers. Wonderful experience! read more

It was ok not the best definitely not the worst. Service was dry kind of like my pastries. Some were better than others. Nothing I'd go back for. Got some fruit pastries, cake and cookies. Cake and cookies were flavorless. Meh read more

Altadena Bakery - Pear was good mango was ok - Desserts Near Me - Burbank, California

I've recently seen how this bakery has become quite popular among food bloggers for their desserts, especially the ones shaped like fruit not only for how realistic they look, but how they all rave about this place and give said desserts a 10/10 all the time. Stopped by it today with two of my friends and we decided to share a few so we could see what their hype was about and it was definitely a disappointment. Service is okay, they greet you, and are polite, but I feel they are annoyed and overwhelmed, especially when people stop them midway with a tray full of pear shape desserts and ask to take a picture, which I can't blame them, so please if you go have some common sense and don't do that. Now, onto the desserts; they are just okay. As one of my friends said, this is more of a novelty item, where you can post on IG or TikTok, but the 10/10 reviews they are definitely lying or they are getting the desserts for free. We got the green apple and the pear shaped desserts. Visually I do give their desserts a perfect 10, because they look amazing, but taste wise they get probably a 5, and that's being generous. The apple just had a little bit of apple compote and it was tasteless, where I would think it would resemble more of an apple pie flavor inside the apple and it was not. The pear was a bit better, but again the filling to size of the "fruit" it's not proportionate, so it's all cream, which taste like nothing, and a bit of filling that you get is equally bland. Also got a pistachio croissant which it was just okay, nothing worth mentioning, and two passion fruit eclairs, which was probably the only good dessert of all the ones we got. Their fruit desserts are $10 each, which is not awful, but it gets to be expensive when they're just not good. Lastly, if you do decide to go either pay cash or debit(which is what we did), as they charge 3% fee on credit cards. read more

I'd wanted to try the viral fruit shaped creme pastries and this was the closest. The shop has a lot of options and the women working there are friendly and helpful. We got the pear and coco raspberry ones and they were amazing! Not too sweet and large for $10. We also got a passion fruit elcair that was tasty too. Only issue is finding parking. read more

I've been to Altadena bakery 2 times now and both times were out of this world! The customer service is outstanding! They are so hospitable! First time we tried the beautiful desserts and the second time we tried the food! I love the setup and how they separate the food and baked goods. The pastrami sandwich was KILLER!!! Throw some bomb sauce on it and OH MY GAWD The iced lattes were so good! BEWARE: their Armenian coffee is STRONG!! But delicious! read more

Came here on my birthday and waited for a while and ended up leaving due to terrible customer service. There is no rhyme or reason to the madness of this place. All I can say is this place needs to work on how it handles its customers. After patiently waiting for about 15 minutes I had made it to the register to order food. That's when multiple women behind the counter helped people behind me asking me to move out of the way. Why would you take people behind me? Next, a woman walked in from outside. She had just parked and walked in. She started talking to the woman behind the counter in Armenian and she helped her before everyone else. That's when I lost it and I left. Literally no one would wait on me. I asked her why will no one take my order and she just smiled and said sorry we're so busy but proceeded to help the woman behind me and still not take my order. I was blown away. I guess I'm not allowed to eat here. Instead of making videos on social media about being busy or having a rush come through I would suggest actually spending time to train your employees what to do. Pulling customers from all over the line and not trying to go in order is why you had chaos inside. Also, Why do you have customers paying from behind the counter? While I was there a woman from the outside came in behind the counter bought things from the women and then paid from that side of the counter. In their civilian clothes and no proper sanitary gloves or anything. Nothing will ever make me come back and try this place again read more

Finally stopped by after hearing about it online. I must admit, the mousse dessert was pricer than I expected - $15 for the mushroom mousse. But it was honestly worth the price. It was easily some of the best mousse I have ever had. The top had a rich, chocolatey, vanilla mousse with strawberry jam, and some sort of chocolate cake in the middle. The bottom also had the same Moose with an absolutely delicious hazelnut filling. I will return! read more

Every single thing I ordered was delicious. Half the store is dedicated to pastries/ cakes, the other side is sandwiches , pizza& salads. The place is spotless. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Food was fresh and piping hot. For starters, the pastries all looked amazing. We ordered the strawberry tart, which was one of the best we've had. The artisan bread with the sandwich was cooked in the oven and had that delicious crunchy crust with melted cheese. The pizza was made in front of us and came out quick. There were a few tables on the inside as well as the outside. Street parking in the front and a little dedicated lot in the back. This was my first time and I'm definitely planning a n coming back for breakfast. I Heard the breakfast sandwiches are amazing and a customer favorite. read more

I'm writing this review to say THANK YOU! Today was my first time at Altadena Cafe, and the food was amazing. After leaving, I realized I couldn't find my bag and remembered I had left it at the café. I called them right away, even though it had already been 2-3 hours. The phone was answered by a very kind woman named Sona, who reassured me: "Don't worry, your bag is here." One of the staff members had found it and brought it to the front. When I returned, every single employee was so sweet and polite. They gave me my bag back, and all my cards and cash were still inside--not a single cent missing. I thanked the manager, I believe her name was Christine, and she told me that in their café, nothing gets lost. THANK YOU GUYS, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! read more

Altadena Bakery has super cute pastries. We made the drive because my daughter really wanted to try it, well our four kids, it was very exciting for them. The service was great and very friendly. The location looks clean and well kept. The pastries are on the expensive side, about $15 each, but they are definitely eye-catching, but I'm not sure I would spend that much on a pastry again. Overall, it was a fun experience one time experience, especially for the kids. read more

Finally got around to trying this amazing bakery after months of seeing it all over my instagram, and it absolutely lived up to the standards portrayed. The service and hospitality were incredible from the moment I walked in. I met David, one of the family members who opened the shop, and he welcomed me like I was part of the family. I got to learn more about the background of who originally opened the shop and how this store has grown into what we see today. Everyone working there was so kind and attentive, especially Meline, who personally helped me and made sure everything was perfect. I tried a variety of their baked goods, and every single one was out of this world. The atmosphere and culture of the place made me truly feel like I was back home. I definitely will have to make the trip back to try more of their items. read more

I hate to have to write this review, but I got bit by the hype bug all on social media. So I had to make the drive down here and trying figure out what I was going to get. The bakery is located right on Glenoaks Blvd so street parking comes at a premium. However, there is a parking lot right behind the bakery that has about 4-5 spaces. There's also a bunch of street parking behind the bakery. If you park back there, you can enter the door in the back instead of having to walk around to the front. Walked in and asked one of the employees if they had a menu I could look at. Instead of handing me the menu, he pointed me to the bakery area. Make sure you grab a ticket when you get to the bakery area as they will not talk to you unless you had a ticket. So I grabbed the ticket and then asked someone for the menu. Since this was my first time here, it took me a while to decide if I wanted a sandwich or pizza for dinner. While waiting for my number to be called, I peruse the goodies and in all honesty, didn't look very interesting tbh. The fruit ones do look fantastic, if I was eating with my eyes, but since I'm not, I will not be paying $10 for that. I'm guessing that's how much it costs. Anyways, I ordered the beef shish sandwich, plain cheesecake, chocolate cake and hazelnut eclair (I think). Total came out to $35 and some change. Then I realized that they charge a 3% credit card fee, so add another $1+ on top of that. Now don't get me wrong, the desserts look great, but again, I do not eat with my eyes. Waited a good 10+ minutes for the sandwich to be ready. I then grabbed a table right outside as it was a nice cool Saturday night. The sandwich alone was about $18 and it was not worth that much. You can get a whole meal for that amount of money. But I digress. I think I read that it's filet mignon pieces and I have to say that it was super tender. The bread is made in house and it was toasted to perfection. It was light and airy and I love that crunch you get when you bite in to it. They add cilantro, raw onions and a creamy sauce. Altogether, I thought the sandwich was pretty good, but I couldn't taste any char from the meat. In fact, the creamy sauce pretty much hid the taste of the meat. The bread did kind of reminded me of a banh mi bread, just lighter. Now on to the desserts. I had the eclair and chocolate cake. I thought the taste was there, but it did taste kind of stale though. Now someone said that this place was a Porto's Killer. Now, I don't think Porto's is all that either, but I would choose Porto's over this place because the desserts definitely taste more fresh there. I am not making the excuse that because I came in around 5pm, that affected the taste/texture of the desserts here, because at Porto's, it doesn't matter what time you walk in, the desserts always taste fresh. Oh that reminds me, I also asked for a plain croissant and just remembered that I had asked for it. The girl totally forgot to add to the box, but luckily, I was not charged for it. But I can only imagine this late in the day, it probably was not going to be flaky anymore. I'm not saying to stay away from this place, but if you haven't been, you should at least give it a try and hopefully have a better experience than me. I might go back for their bread and maybe a pizza next time though. But will not be driving 30 minutes back here. read more

Not to often people take the time to leave a good review but the credit was earned no doubt about it. THEY MADE ME THE ABSOLUTE BEST PISTACHIO CROISSANTS IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE !!!!

Food: low quality specially fries and pizzas service: poor, on weekends are too busy and kitchen workers are not enough to prepare food properly Don't pay attention to order, usually make it wrong customer service: the person who takes orders for food, takes wrong order and charge you more but you get wrong order overall: poor quality, prices high, and bad customer service read more

Service was dry, not welcoming at all. Most of these establishments have lost their niche to give good customer service unfortunately. The lady that took our order seemed like she was having a rough morning & was extremely serious. I ordered a breakfast sandwhich which was pretty delicious but the lady forgot to mention this "bacon" was spicy so I couldn't give it to my son. Something important to mention since not everyone likes spicy breakfast sandwiches. Coffee was simple & the tiramisu dessert was also good/ok. Overall not a pleasant first impression - this restaurant is missing character and a better attitude towards their costumers. read more

Where do I start!? First time here & I am still dreaming of their desserts. Today, I only had their pastries but next time, I will definitely be trying their sandwiches and pizza. Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures which I totally regret but I was just too excited to eat. I had the lemon, mushroom, & raspberry pastries and they were so flavorful & not too sweet, they were the perfect combination of both. There is something so nostalgic about these pastries that brought me back to my childhood, I have not been able to pin point to it, but I don't know if was a candy I had, or what but something about the flavor takes me back to my childhood. They have great customer service & the place is spotless. I really enjoyed coming here & I can't wait to bring friends & family. So happy I found this place! read more

The definition of mid and overhyped. Came here after seeing a lot of foodie influencers coming here and raving about it. It's nice that it's family owned, and it is a nice location. We also did have good service and visually most of the items look stunning. Let's be real though, we came here for the sweets and sadly everything was a disappointment. The driest and underwhelming flavored carrot cake, dry Opera cake, mediocre tiramisu eclairs, the best item of the visit was the mango mousse. I know it's a popular place, and the food did smell good coming from the other side of building but it was a letdown on the dessert front. Maybe it was a bad day, not sure, or maybe we got the wrong items that they do not specialize in but we'll see. Upon first visit, there are way better options in Burbank. read more

I have always driven by this place but finally decided to drop in and it did not disappoint! We got the raspberry, peach, and mushroom dessert and they were amazing.

Popped in today with my brother for a half cheese/ half pepperoni pizza. Small size this time- perfect for 2...especially if you want dessert! He had a giant pistachio croissant filled with cream. I had a plain croissant. I spend a lot of time in France and often have a croissant. The only difference is that Alta Dena croissants are bigger. The taste is absolutely divine. It's family owned and run. Great stop for a box of assorted pastries if you're going to visit friends or family. Definitely worth a visit. You'll be hooked. read more
