matcha soufflé | tiktok & insta: @trinhiesworld
Trinh T.

Food: matcha soufflé - fluffy, not too sweet, creamy, and small. cutely plated as well! shareable but small enough to eat alone as well Service: super sweet and helpful. i do have to say that if you come here for the soufflé pancakes, the wait may be long since they're trying to make each dish fresh. we waited about 40min for ours. Ambiance: super cute inside with several seating areas. there's also an outdoor seating area. pretty peaceful vibes when i went.

creme brulee & original pancakes
Arren C.

Craving souffle pancakes after a recent trip from Japan and honestly, after trying many places that has souffle pancakes - Cake de Partie has the closest texture to Japans. Loved the creme brulee and original. There is a wait time of course but that's to be expected. There were no long lines, place is cozy, but there is a parking lot to pay. Still, 10/10.

Chocolate cornflake soufflé

Had dinner and dessert here. The drunken noodles were good. A bit spicier than I thought it would be. The description made no mention of spice. Good flavor though. If you want a pancake soufflé order it as the same time as your food. It takes 40 mins to make the soufflé. They can only do one batch at a time. If that batch is full, it'll take up to an hour. The tables and chairs can use an update. Our table was cracked down the middle.

Chicken Satay Salad

cake de partie is one of my favorite restaurants/cafe in san diego! i no longer live in san diego, but i always try to stop by when i visit. there's no place like it. the restaurant is small and has tables both inside and outside. it's more of a casual restaurant. there's not that much parking at this plaza, so sometimes we have to park on the street. service is always nice and friendly! we have eaten at the restaurant multiple times and have also called in for take out. we got the chicken satay salad and the tom yum pasta with chicken. the chicken satay salad was so flavorful and refreshing! i think this is a newer menu item. my absolute favorite dish here is the tom yum pasta with chicken and i get the tomatoes removed. the pasta is delicious and so flavorful. i haven't found another place that has anything like it. the desserts here are good too!

Stopped by Cake de Partie for the fusion Thai pasta. Orders are taken and paid at the front before you're given a number to take to your seat. Ordered the Tom Yum shrimp, Spicy Basil crab, and Green Curry chicken pasta. The most unique of the three was the tom yum shrimp pasta as it ended on a tangy sweet note. I thought the green curry chicken was very reminiscent of Alfredo due to its creamy texture. All three of the dishes were not spicy at all. Overall, I enjoyed the fushion Thai dishes and would come back to try the dessert.

Okay, so I came to Cake De Partie specifically for their Japanese soufflé pancakes and they were definitely worth the wait. I tried the Salted Caramel Banana and the Creme Brulee Souffle, and both were super soft and fluffy. The Creme Brulee was easily my favorite. I paired everything with a caramel macchiato, and the service and overall atmosphere were both really nice. Definitely one of my favorite dessert spots in San Diego so far.

Located on Convoy St, Cake De Partie is undoubtedly one of the best Asian Fusion and Dessert places in San Diego. This was the last place we visited during our latest trip to San Diego. We came to this place to have brunch on our way back to home. This place is trendy and always very busy with people. Luckily, we were the first customers of the day and the place just opened the time we got in. The inside of this place was clean and the decor was very festive and inviting. We ordered Chicken Wing Zapp, Tom Kha Chicken Pasta, Caramel Macchiato, Salt Caramel Banana Pancake Soufflé, and Hibiscus Pomegranate Soda. Their Soufflé Pancakes usually take 30-45 minutes to prepare, so it's better to order when you arrive. However, as I mentioned earlier that, we were the first customers, so they were able to serve Soufflé Pancake within 20 minutes. Their food and drinks were literally so good! The Salt Caramel Banana Pancake Soufflé and the Tom Kha Chicken Pasta were the best breakfast items among all the dishes. The prices were a bit high, but still reasonable considering the quality of their food. People who work here are friendly, humble, and cooperative. We enjoyed our brunch very much and we'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu in the future!

Thai coconut tea and banana biscoff
Anh H.

We came in especially for the summer mango souffle pancake and was told it would take 35 min. to prepare. So we ordered spicy crab pasta with basil and it was so good. Also ordered Thai tea coconut and his Biscoff banana drinks. Everything was delicious and refreshing. Excellent service and chill vibes. Will come back to try the crepe cakes and other pasta dishes. The mango souffle pancake was good but I wish there was more mango flavor. Parking here is a bit tricky. To pay or not to pay.

Blueberry cheesecake pancake souffle
Tina S.

One of the few places in san diego that does a food soufle pancake. They also serve crepe cake but I think their souffle pancakes hit the best. At first I thought the place was a dessert place but their pastas are also super flavorful and creative. Both pastas I got were extremely good! The souffle was equally as good and very jiggly. It does take a bit like 20/30mins but the food and dessert come out great. Service wise pretty chill, they mostly leave ya a long but happy to help. Big space and theres usually space to sit inside. Convoy has gotten a bit hard for parking so I usually park somewhere in the back and walk over.

This was my second time visiting. I had tried to come a few times before, but the shop was closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. This time I ordered the crepe, toast, and popcorn chicken. I really enjoyed all three. The pastries were not too sweet, which made them perfect. The popcorn chicken was crispy and very juicy. The staff were very sweet, friendly, and attentive to customers. The shop is spacious, clean, and comfortable. Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5

Mocha crepe cake
Chanel Y.

I've been here a few times, usually for their awesome crepe cakes, but this time su tried their pasta! I got the green curry pasta and it was soooo good! I was expecting noodles even though the menu clearly states pasta, so I was confused at first, but still very yummy! The portion is a good size, so I ate half for lunch and the other half for dinner. I also ordered a strawberry matcha that was pretty good!! The crepe cakes are my favorite, though. Make sure you try the Thai tea flavored one-and add the sauce!!!

2/26/2025.  Zapp chicken wings and Tom yum noodles!
Jeff F.

It's easy to overlook this restaurant when driving on convoy, as it blends in with other businesses. In other words, this is a diamond in the rough for delectable fare. Zapp chicken wings: seasoning that you can see on the crispy batter that goes well with the tender and juicy chicken. The food is cooked to order; therefore, these wings will be piping hot in temperature but also has a spicy bite, 5/5 stars! Tom yum noodles: a well-executed dish! The layers of flavor that cover every micrometer of tender but chewy noodles. The pasta sauce is unique as it is a broth that is savory with a hint of spice, sweetness, and tang. The grape tomatoes, mushrooms, and red onions were tender and slightly caramelized. The chicken was also tender and this is a 5/5 stars dish! Crepe cake: this was a refreshing dessert, as portions of the layers were both flaky and soft. The cake itself was mildly flavored, but went well with the fresh strawberries and sweet strawberry sauce, 4/5 stars. Tiramisu soufflé pancake: this fluffy and airy pancake is light in flavor and the cocoa powder adds bitterness, but is balanced with the sweet chocolate sauce that is intended for drizzling over the cake. The vanilla ice cream and sliced strawberries on the side adds more depth, 4/5 stars. I've been enjoying the food here for over a decade which is a testament to their consistency to excellence and my reluctance to share this restaurant on-line until now :)

This place is very roomy! They have a small patio area in the back great for dogs! I came here to try their zap chicken wings recommended by one of the workers from The Friendly. Cake de Partie serves some awesome looking desserts! They also serve pasta dishes with asian themes and other flavors. The chicken wings came in 6 pieces for about 10$. It has a very lemon pepper flavor. This wasnt screaming "great" chicken but it was battered and fried perfectly. I enjoyed the chicken. Next time, I will for sure try the pasta!

This was not our first time visiting Extraordinary Desserts, which makes this experience even more disappointing. Sadly, every time we come back, the service seems to get worse. The waiter's attitude and level of attention were unacceptable, and the overall customer service was simply not there. For a place that is supposed to be about enjoying beautiful desserts and having a nice experience, the quality of the service completely ruined our visit. Service, attention, and hospitality were all a zero.

He intentionally did it because the can was far and he had to reach over the gelato display for it. I called him out and he got a clean spoon. That took us back and we made sure to watch his every move. Absolutely disgusting. Other issues were the gelato wasn't smooth and creamy, as if it was old and had freezer burn. I had a scoop of the Stracciatella and Tiramisu (2 scoops on cone, $7.53 after tax). You also had to pay for the gelato before getting a sample or what you want, which is different from the norm and confusing. The workers repeated this to several people. Overall, would not return and don't recommend.

It was a warm day but we got there at 5:15pm and the sun was starting to go behind the downtown buildings. Negative: service. It seems if you are a regular, like the two tables near us, they chat it up and talk about how things are. If you aren't a regular, they just quickly come by and say "anything else?" the two times they came by. Im a huge water drinker so the carafe they brought only refilled our cups once. Never got another one until we were done and they came by asking about dessert. They weren't busy by any stretch on a Tuesday evening but apparently the frequent customers either tip really well or they prefer familiar faces. I assume the latter. So, I mean the food itself was great but service was not good. I mean we went when it was slow too and the host was talking it up with a frequent customer also asking about the changes recently to parking in their area nearby.... So, it puts this review as a 3/5.

So we decided on Nonna's for their variety of pastas and pizza. The evening was packed with people up and down the streets. However, when we arrived at Nonna's we only had to wait no more than a couple of minutes before being seated. We thought most italian places would provide some sort of complimentary bread, but this place did not. We ended up ordering the Carbonara, Fusilli Alla Vodka, Pappardelle, and Salsiccia pizza. Each were fantastic, but the family really enjoyed the Fusilli and the Pappardelle the most! The short rib meat was extremely tender and flavorful. Portions were a little smaller than expected, but it was enough to feed each of us with a couple slices of pizza to spare. Ambiance was nice and the staff was great. A drink we ordered was forgotten, but it's understandable since it was quite busy. Overall, great experience and glad we ended up at Nonna's even though it wasn't part of the batch of recommendations provided online.
