The dubai chocolate is so good!! My daughter love it!! The pastries is also soooooo good! We will definitely be back to try more things. What we tried was good!! The pastries is definitely a hit for me.

I'm pretty sure I've eaten their sweets - I just don't remember the old shop's name. Habibi Sweets, on the other hand, with their assortment of baklavas and Turkish Delights gave me a teasing taste of one of their more popular confections. My order included two rolled green-colored baklavas, One Almond dough pastry brimming with nuts and seeds, a coconut.TD, and for the pièce de résistance, this dark red Rose Petal Turkish Delight that was to die for! I remember my foray into chewy Turkish delights 25 years ago and this one was beyond delightful! Plus, it's non-GMO and Gluten-free! And there's more! The friendly staff, namely Zina gave me a small free box of even more assortment of baklavas to try which will surely be shared with my family.

The space is gorgeous and lowkey made me feel like I had been transported to Turkey (I wish). We were greeted right away, and the woman helping us (possibly the owner) was so kind and recommended a few baklava options for us to try since it was our first time. They sell them by the pound, but we went with one of each: original, powdered sugar, and the chocolate pistachio finger. Drinks: pistachio latte + iced mocha latte My goodness... everything was heaven-sent. The baklava and drinks paired perfectly--we left no crumbs. I'm literally drooling just thinking about it while writing this. Definitely coming back soon.

But with that being said me and my lady ordered 2 açaí bowls and they were ready in about 12-15 minutes. Not a problem for us. You can make your own bowl or choose from pre made recipes.

We ordered the Fit açaí bowl for our friend to take home, and she absolutely LOVED it. We weren't hungry enough to get anything for ourselves, but I appreciated how the guy at the counter asked if we wanted anything drizzled on top. We chose almond butter (and silently prayed our friend didn't have a nut allergy ). Turns out, that was the best choice because she said the almonds were her favorite part. Now we're definitely curious and will have to come back to try the bowls for ourselves next time!

Still my go to place when I'm craving something sweet and special. Their cakes may be pricey, but…read morein my opinion, for the amount of work, effort, and quality of ingredients, I think they continue to be fair. For example, some other specialty bakeries/shops are charging similar prices for cakes and cheesecakes that are much simpler. In comparison, Extraordinary Dessert cakes take 3-4 days to make, have 6-8 alternating layers, and are typically adorned with edible gold and/or flowers. The key is to find which items you like and which are okay to pass on next time. What we ried this time: -Match Misu Cake (7/10): ricotta cake layers soaked in matcha and layered with marscapone whipped cream. This one was pretty good and ranks in my middle to high range. I only wish there was more matcha flavor (maybe if you dine in and get the sauce, this would help) or the matcha was paired with another flavor ... either go fruity (maybe a raspberry sauce, strawberry pieces, white peach pieces, or like a peach oolong cream layer) or go chocolately/coffee (maybe had some crushed up chocolate covered espresso beans). My go to's: -Ivoire Royale (10/10) - my ultimate favorite still. If you like light desserts, white chocolate, berries, and moist vanilla cake, thus one is for you. Classy and unpretentious -Shangrila (10/10) - my other favorite and will make you feel like a princess with all the pink chocolate curls. A little bit adventurous and innocently elegant. Ones to skip: -Au Chocolate / La Bete Noire / Dame Chocolate - get the Viking instead. That's my favorite of all their chocolate cakes -Lemon ricotta - get the Passionfruit Ricotta instead -Torta misu - the matcha misu is better. The tortilla misuse made me want a regular piece of tirmaisu than a cake version -Coconut cream - not bad, not amazing though

Also just so everyone is aware they're also liars just to mention & stupid.. she tells us her name is Karen thinking we don't know the owners name lol .. She was at the register at 7:20pm and was extremely rude and dismissive after we placed our order, especially regarding a child's dietary restrictions and health concerns. We politely asked if it would be possible to purchase a small cup of fruit , even just a couple strawberries cut up, because one child in our group cannot have sweets due to very strict dietary restrictions . Instead of simply saying they were unable to accommodate the request or offering another option, we were told to "go somewhere else," despite already spending the amount we did . The complete lack of professionalism and basic customer service was honestly shocking. It's disappointing to be treated that way at a place we have supported so consistently. This place has been going downhill , management for this place needs to step up .

First, I love the interior design that maintains the dry cleaner theme so creatively. It's both quaint and charming. Though there's a long line, it's worth the wait because of the wonderful service they provide you. You are given an experience when it's your turn. First, they have you started with a palate cleanser (ginger, lemon, honey) - so refreshing! Then, they have you try each gourmet flavor. Each flavor is unique and they swap them out every month. Though we were feeling gluttonous and wanted to get absolutely everything, we practiced self restraint and landed on four flavors: 1. Strawberry, jasmine, mochi 2. Honey, lavender, oat, white chocolate 3. Brown butter and chocolate chip cookies 4. Goat cheese, apricot, and saffron Everything was so good texture and flavor wise, and I already can't wait to go back to SD next month just to try new flavors! My wish: that they'd sell and deliver online to all parts of CA. Feels too far from LA and too good to stay local.

To their credit, the experience seems intentional: every guest gets samples, and a worker patiently walks you through each flavor like it's a mini tasting. It adds to the anticipation (and maybe helps justify that wait a little.) One of my favorites is the Palate Cleanser (ginger lime sorbet.) It's refreshing and bright! Flavors do rotate through the menu, so there's always something new to try. That said, this is not your casual gelato run spot. Seating is limited, and between the long wait and the whole tasting process, it's more of a commitment than a quick dessert stop. Verdict: If you've got time to kill and a solid dose of patience, it's a fun experience to check out at least once!
