    So many toppings to choose from! I wanted a simple cinnamon roll so I ordered an old-school. It was gooey and gooey, and you could see the butter and icing melted perfectly over the cinnamon bread. The cashier was super nice and quick service. I signed up for the rewards program with my telephone number so I have to come back!

    Just the O.G.

    The cinnamon roll was slightly dense and maybe a tad undercooked, however fresh! The texture I would hope for is light and slightly fluffy. The great thing is this place warms up the cinnamon roll and applies ample frosting to bread ratio. Making this a decent stop over to try but maybe not something I would come back for. We got the original cinnamon roll just to compare to others we have tried, I tend to enjoy a less dense based cinnamon roll with butter notes and light and airy texture.

    Wow! Truly way better than that other widely available cinnamon roll brand even just the basic bun. I love cinnamon rolls and I love peach cobbler, welllll.....they have both in one dessert. And it is fantastic! This is a MUST try place. Buns run $5ish to $7ish depending on toppings. You can also add any of the toppings to any bun. They could step up their coffee game bc doesn't everyone want a good cup of joe with a cinnamon roll? The coffee itself is good but it's not fresh usually and is in one of those dispensers to the side with no real cream options. Kind of an afterthought really. I got a Bakers box for a party and it was beautiful and a big hit. Still I'm a huge fan and it's definitely worth a stop.

    Oh my talk about a sweet tooth. I was passing by the area and said hmm let me try somewhere new. I pulled up to Cinnaholic and was in for a treat. There are so many flavor options to choose from. I ordered the mini buns to start with cream cheese frosting -because there was a list of topping options that i never knew could go on top. The mini buns were immaculate. They were warm, cinnamony, and not too overwhelming with size. I would definitely recommend as I will be visiting again. There is also ample parking as it's in a shared parking lot with Randall's grocery store.

    My friend wanted to treat us to dessert because we both had a whack week.... This location closed at 9p and we walked in at 8:22p. The cashier mumbled something about the only available cinnamon rolls were in the warmer or we'd have to wait 15mins. But her attitude was so trash and her energy so bad, we ordered two different buns because she didn't even tell us what kind were in the warmer. I asked if she was having a good day and she rolled her eyes. We ordered and she went to the back to start her closing duties I guess. Another cashier then came out to help us finish out our transaction and she was much more pleasant! The mean machine came out again to break down the ice cream machine and some ladies were standing outside the door looking like they wanted to come in, but again, Mean Machine rolled her eyes so. I guess they changed their minds. Look. I understand being ready to go home and maybe not having the best day, but taking that out on unsuspecting customers ain't the move. If she didn't have the energy to be customer facing, then allow your coworker to finish the duties with customers and you can stay in the back cleaning up with the frown stuck to your mean ass face. The location was beautiful and clean and it's close to myself so..... I'll definitely be back and I hope her attitude changes next time me or anyone else is in there. The buns themselves were good. Not the best I've ever had. Could have been a bit softer and warmer but we did take them to go. I would imagine if I popped it in the microwave or air fryer for a second..... That would be great. I had the banana pudding bun and my friend had a different one.

    Cinnaholic is hands down one of my favorite dessert places. The cinnamon rolls are always so fresh and tasty! I love that you can customize it, but also i got one of their limited time creations and it's probably one of my favorites now! I 10/10 recommend this place if you're craving a cinnamon roll or just something sweet:)) the staff was also super sweet, there was a slight wait for the rolls because they were still in the oven but the lady making them apologized for the wait multiple times and was really nice! The ambiance of the place was cute, very casual but i liked that they had water cups and water filled for guests especially due to the short wait for the rolls! Overall this place deserves 5 stars and I recommend going there with family or friends for some AMAZING cinnamon rolls:)

    Husband and I went after a date night for dessert. He had the classic while I tried creme brulee with strawberry. I personally would prefer a thicker icing. It was a bit runny. The staff was polite. Very quietly spoken. I feel they could have done a bit better job on the upsell/ explaining everything. Overall it wasn't bad but I feel I would likely pick something else first.

    I had no business going to get dessert, but it was cheat day so I had to oblige. I heard about Cinnaholic from some folks and them being vegan was a plus for me. I stopped by on a cloudy Wednesday and there wasn't much foot traffic happening (I'm sure the weather played a role). After much thought and suggestions from the young woman behind the counter, I got the Oreo Cinnabon, with vanilla icing and cookie crumbles ($7). It was delicious and I ate it over the course of two days. I'll be back! Plus there's plenty of parking so that's always a plus.

    Finding a really good cinnamon roll around here is tougher than expected. The top-recommended spots never even answered their phones, which left us with limited options. I was a little skeptical when we pulled up--especially since this is a chain in a shopping center--but to our surprise, it turned out to be a solid choice. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and while the rolls seem premade with toppings added to order, the classic cinnamon roll stood out as our favorite. Fresh, soft, and topped with flavorful icing, it hit the spot. Overall, a great option to satisfy your craving for cinnamon rolls.

    Finally in the right place at the right time and able to try a gourmet cinnamon roll. Or two. Cute place and concept. Lots of menu options for signature flavors, build your own and a variety of gift boxes for cinnamon rolls + a selection of other baked goods Ordered the old skool and the peach cobbler. Each came in their individual box, packed in a carry out bag, and utensils. The roll is very dense, and you'll definitely need a knife. I found it to be very basic. The center was dry - not the ooo-gooy cinnamon center you might expect. They are very generous with the icing, and it appears to be fresh made. Plus it dissolves / melts all over the roll. A good roll / icing ratio in each bite. The old skool - as expected, if all you want is a cinnamon roll. The peach cobbler, again, good roll / icing ratio, fresh diced peaches and peach crumble crisps. Definitely a good choice. I saw a few flavors that caught my eye, so I'll stop by again for more taste tests. I also like the mini trio option, each can be a different topping, for when you have a sweet craving but not wanting a full size roll.

    Very Berry Roll

    Litterly the best!!! The cashier is always so nice , she has learned our order and always smiles when she sees us :) , 1000% recommended ! , Super clean place Delicious warm Cinnabons

    The Chipotle of Cinnamon Rolls was probably how this was pitched on Shark Tank. The rolls are not immensely oversized and you can realistically eat one by yourself and not feel gluttonous. They are pretty soft and gooey, so there's no buyer's remorse there. The real fun here is customizing the different flavors of icing and the large selection of toppings. You can go rogue and build your own, but they also have a dozen or so featured ones if you get decision fatigue. Not a ton of seating and they seem to lean towards wanting you to do pick up orders. We were the only ones there for a solid half hour on a Saturday morning.

    I give it a 9.7 lol only because of the name I assumed it was infused with some type alcohol. Like what!!! No bourbon or anything? Lol ok fine... luckily I have daily sweet tooth and the nut cracker cinnamon roll was perfection!!! Walnuts!!! Pecans!!! Salted caramel Jesus!!!! I did I mention it 100 % VEGAN!!!!!! I'm not a vegan!!!! Plus it was only around $8

When I stopped by on a weekday evening at 9pm it was packed. They had stations setup throughout the store to order different goods, which helped to alleviate the rush. Knafeh ($6) - They offered 2 types of knafeh, one with cheese and one with custard. I went with the one made with Nabulsi cheese and topped with shredded phyllo, and soaked in sugar syrup. It was warm, crispy and delicious! Karak tea ($5) - This milk tea drink was made with aromatic spices, primarily cardamom, cloves, ginger and cloves. I was happy to see they used whole milk instead of evaporated milk. The drink was incredibly rich and creamy and tasted great. Turkish delight ($18 / lb.) - This was extremely fresh, soft and chewy, made with cornstarch, sugar, nuts. Some of the varieties I tried had chocolate and/or fruits. The baklava here was fresh made with layers of phyllo dough, chopped nuts, and held together with some honey. The nut offerings here included, almonds, walnuts, peanuts and a few more. Overall I was impressed with everything they offered here with the exception of the nuts, which I thought were just ok. I'd definitely return if I was in the area.

For example, with the Turkish delights and ice cream selections, only a few items are labeled. For most of them, you have to guess the flavor or ingredients. When I asked questions, there was a language barrier, and the staff member behind the counter was unable to clearly explain what the items were in English. This can be especially frustrating for customers with food allergies or dietary restrictions. In the U.S., I would expect all flavors and ingredients to be clearly labeled so customers can make informed choices. Even if staff members are not fluent in English, having accurate labels for flavors and ingredients would greatly improve the customer experience. The desserts themselves are excellent, but better product labeling would make the experience much more enjoyable and accessible for everyone.

The cheesecake flavor was okay not overpowering, which I would've preferred more than the almond and strawberry. I think I wasn't impressed with it because the server scooped more of the graham crust than ice cream. I'm pretty sure that's another reason I didn't particularly care for their cheesecake. The horchata was nice with hints of cinnamon and with the split cup made it taste even better.

You're paying for the K-Pop Demon Hunter pop-up aesthetic, the upbeat vibes, the fast service, the themed menu. The desserts? Solid. The Pinky Up Parfait hits. One scoop of cappuccino ice cream comes generous and tasty. Nothing disappoints. But nothing revolutionizes dessert either. This is good execution in service of a limited time experience, not destination-level pastry work. And that's fine. That's exactly what a pop-up should be. The real draw is that everything works together. Vibe, music, service, and desserts that don't let the side down. It feels fun, not gimmicky. That's harder to pull off than you'd think. Bottom line. Pop-ups don't stick around. If the K-Pop theme is your thing and you want solid desserts in a fun environment, go now. If you're just looking for great desserts, permanent spots do it better.

If you're a chocolate lover, this is definitely up your alley. Ruby - visually this looks like a strawberry Hershey kiss, with red powder on the exterior and a top piece of foil to resemble foil on the wrapper of a hershey kiss. Inside, it's filled with a strawberry cream and has a chocolate base. I just wish there was more chocolate in this one. They have plenty of seating inside as well as along the sidewalk. Inside you have the more fancy tables, whereas outside, they're more weather resistant and not as upscale in appearance. The soft drinks to drink along with your sweets are in a cold case along the hotel side of the space and you just take them to the register as you order. One of the most surprising things when you come here are the relatively affordable prices as you might expect them to be more for being a coffee shop attached to a 5-star hotel with a helipad.

The price was not bad either. I got 4 cookies and 1 cupcake and my total was $31. These aren't little cookies either. They are big and you get them warm! She didn't have to warm them up she just handed them to us warm! They were the perfect amount of crunchy on the edge and gooey on the inside. All of them were amazing! The cupcake was for my mom and she said it was amazing too. I live on the other side of town but will be making a trip back whenever I need a fix!

    Y'all be hyping places up. Where to begin? I walked in and nobody was around. I walked around for a…read moregood 30 sec to a min and then finally someone showed up to greet me. I decided to go for small just to try it out first vs get a slice and pay $15 which in the end it didn't matter cus it came out to $12 for 2 items I got. The cupcake I got was cookies and cream but it just taste like reg store bought cake. You know the type that it's "chocolate" but there's not much choc flavor to it. The cream cheese frosting was like eating melted grease and added nothing to the rest of the cupcake. I ended up taking a bite and dumping the rest. I got one of their brownies but gave that to my husband so he could eat it at work. So can't really talk on that.

    So my coworker would always bring ube bread for me to work and I finally got her to give up where…read moreshe goes. She told me to go to the bakers son and make sure I go early because they do sale out and people buy in bulk. I entered with intentions of only getting the ube bread but $40 and 5 items later I went slightly overboard. They have so many items and they all look delicious. The customer service was great and prices were really good. Now to the items, the ube bread is phenomenal, soft, sweet, flavorful 10/10. I also got a biscoff bread sandwich (I'm forget the name) which had the softest and most perfect bread I've ever indulged in. Now to what the employees recommended and the absolute star. The ube Swiss roll. Omg, it was phenomenal. 20 out of 10! It was perfect in every way. I live 30 mins away but will make sure to keep The Bakers Son on a must go place weekly!

    I've heard a lot and seen many posts about The Baker's Son in Houston. The videos and pictures made…read moretheir bread and pastries look delicious and very promising. Since we were already in the area after breakfast at TJ's Filipino Cuisine, we finally got the chance to stop by and try their baked goods for ourselves. We arrived early, so the bakery wasn't too busy yet. The bakers were busy prepping more goodies in the back while my cousin and I browsed all the Filipino baked goods we really miss from back home in the Philippines. They even had suman, sapin-sapin, biko, and other kakanin, which was nice to see. I specifically looked for the chicken empanada, and my cousin wanted to try the ube white chocolate chip cookie. We also saw different kinds of siopao and planned to come back later to buy some before heading back to San Antonio. We tried the ube white chocolate chip cookie first, but honestly we weren't totally satisfied. It tasted more like a regular white chocolate chip cookie with purple coloring and didn't really have much ube flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada. My cousin didn't like it because it was sweeter than expected--we were both expecting it to be savory. There seemed to be caramelized sugar in the outside of the pastry, which probably added to the sweetness. I still like it, though it was definitely sweeter than what I'm used to. Red Ribbon's chicken empanada is still my favorite. Later that day before leaving Houston, we came back for the siopao we planned to take home. We finally decided to just buy a couple pieces for ourselves, heat them up in the bakery, and try them fresh. When we saw the price for a four-pack, we were honestly disappointed. It felt expensive for the size. The siopao wasn't huge, and while I like the dough, there wasn't much chicken filling inside. For the portion, taste, and quality, it felt overpriced. Overall, it's probably not worth making another trip back for us. We did enjoy the cassava ube suman, and I like the chicken empanada, but not enough to drive all the way to Houston just for those. If I live nearby, I might come back to try other baked goods, but based on this visit, I'm not sure the rest would impress my palate. I still give them credit for cleanliness and customer service, although we did notice fruit flies on one of the shelves and reported it. The staff was friendly, and the bakery itself was welcoming. At the end of the day, since they're a bakery, the expectation is great-tasting, quality, mouthwatering Filipino breads, pastries ", and kakanin. While some items were enjoyable, overall it just didn't quite live up to the hype for us.
