Adrienne H.

I cant believe I'm just finding out about this place. When I say everything I've tried is so good. I mean everything. My favorite breakfast item is the avacado toast with the egg white. The chicken sausage is fire. The jam he makes is the best I ever had. Ive had the strawberry lemon cheesecake 10/10. His cookies are good as well. Great customer service. I definitely recommend checking it out.

Lemon tart
Nasser S.

I love love this place. The owner is amazing, the food is always amazing. The menu is constantly changing with the seasons. I have to stop by anytime I am in the neighborhood. If you haven't been, run dont walk and get you some delicious treats to eat and share, dont be greedy, share the love.

The best cheesecakes I've had in Oakland. Got the strawberry and lemon as two "mini" birthday cakes. Looked elegant with some gold candles, and my partner absolutely loved the presentation and taste. I honestly can't think of a better cheesecake I've had in Oakland. It was decadent but not too rich; you still want more and more. The balance of flavors was perfect. The cookie layer was divine and maintained their crisp even a day later. The candied fruit -- strawberry and lemon peel -- were executed masterfully in terms of flavor balance and texture. These details represent how much care they put in. I highly recommend the strawberry and lemon cheesecakes. I wanted to get the banana pudding but it was sold out for the day. I bet it's phenomenal and can't wait to try it out. They also offer large, full-sized cheesecakes, breakfast sandwiches, and more. I imagine it's a delicious breakfast/brunch spot. Theres a bit of seating inside. The gentleman who helped me was friendly and helpful with recommendations. Free street parking was a breeze to find on a Saturday afternoon. You can really feel the passion and care in every ounce of each cheesecake. Treat you and your loved ones and enjoy the amazing cheesecakes here. (Just leave some banana pudding for me.)

I Love New York Cheesecake
Alice H.

I was looking for a good cheesecake in the East Bay for my boyfriend's birthday cake, since he is a big fan of cheesecake. I relized this place had actulally been on my want to go list for a whle with a note saying "NY Cheesecake", so I decided to give it a try! I ordreded their "I Love New York Cheesecake" online three days in advance and picked it up in the store. The whole process was smooth and easy. Once I placed the order, I got a comfirmation email right away. The cheesecake is smooth, with dense cream cheese filling with a hint of fresh lemon and Madagascar vanilla on a buttery shortbread crust. The cake tasted amazing, and I'll definitely be back to try their other flavors in the future!

Warm Cinnamon Rolls
Kelly L.

Ive been wanting to try this place for so long but was disappointed with my first visit. Came today on a Sunday and it was clear they were understaffed with a lot of customers, seemed like it was just the owner working plus one person in the back making all the orders. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon and also the cinnamon rolls. When the breakfast sandwiches were ready I heard him call out one with bacon and one with ham even though me and the other customer both ordered bacon. We both said we ordered bacon and he seemed confused. He gave one box to the customer who had ordered before me and then he handed me a box. I specifically asked him if this was bacon because that is what I ordered and he responded "yes", turns out it was not bacon like I had suspected and it was ham, which I do not like. It was already too late cause I was already on my way home. He should have asked the worker in the back to remake my sandwich or at least swap out the ham with bacon but he did not. Disappointed, it was already a longer wait (which I don't mind waiting) but I didn't get what I asked and paid for. In total I spent $35 (including tip) for an order of two small cinnamon rolls and a breakfast sandwich with the wrong meat. Disappointed, I won't be coming back. Wish I had a better experience here because I saw so many good reviews.

Vietnamese coffee
Jasmine Y.

Came here for the first time! Greeted with a warm smile and very friendly guy. At first we were only looking to have some coffee but I am glad I had the pastry last second. The pistachio croissant was so nice and crispy on top, and it was very generous with the filling in the middle. It was nicely sweetened, but not too sweet! So nice to share with a person or two! I ordered the cold brew and the Vietnamese coffee. My only issue would probably be the coffees and if it wasn't for the pastry, I would probably give this place a 2 or 3 star. The coffee cans I saw on shelf are definitely the beans/grinds used in Vietnamese coffee, but the milk used was not right. Vietnamese coffee is more thick -- with condensed milk and very concentrated espresso/coffee. This one was not strong and pretty watered dow. The one I got today resembled nothing of viet coffee, and I was a little let down.

Scones & coffee cake muffins
Kalkidan A.

I picked up a few pastries here on a Wednesday morning. It wasn't too busy and it's a cute little bakery. This is what I tried with my family and we all gave the items very similar ratings. All in all great place, I'll be back to try more items. Coffee cake muffins 10/10 - this was SO delicious. The muffins was the dense and moist. You could taste spices like cardamom which I love. It was just so good, perfect to pair with coffee or tea. Butter peace croissant 10/10 - this was buttery and flaky and tasted like an elevated cinnamon roll. I Quiche 6/10 - I had the become gruyère cheese. The flavor was really good so I kept eating it but it was SO salty it was very difficult to eat. If the salt was adjusted this would be delicious. Cherry scone 5/10 - the didn't have the texture of a scone to me, it was more cake on the inside than crumbly + I didn't really like the flavor.

Quiche Lorraine
Felinn A.

Very cute and quaint place on the Main Street in oakland. Heard about this place off of tik tok and it didn't disappoint! Our favorite menu item was the cinnamon rolls, which came out warm and fresh with a super gooey center, sauce and frosting. Very heavy on the orange flavor if you enjoy that. Along with that we got the quiche Lorraine and veggie quiche both yummy when warmed up that was accompanied by a salad. The veggie quiche reminded me of a ratatouille x ravioli dish. Sat inside to eat and the owner was very welcoming and descriptive with all his items! Very kind and helpful. Only thoughts were I wish there was a way to read/view the baked goods/pastries for sale, and that the cinnamon roll was featured for more people to know about. As someone walking in with no prior knowledge they would be greatly missing out!

Warm Cinnamon Rolls
Subie C.

Everything was sinfully divine. Stopped in for breakfast and it was the right move. Cinnamon Roll - a gooey bread pudding-like situation. Breakfast Sammie's - the biscuit, the bbq sauce, the hefty egg Carrot loaf Coffee cake muffin Chicken and fig sandwich - schmaltzy Coming back for Thanksgiving pick up. Owner was also so gracious and patient with our 3 kids taking their sweet time to order.

Lemon (Puckered Up) Cheesecake, I Love New York Cheesecake, Vegan Cheesecake, and Cinna-YEAH-MON! Bun.
Gretchen Z.

The cinnamon rolls are divine! The frosting is light and fresh not heavy and granular. Everything we had was delicious! Nice staff and local business for the win. Colorful atmosphere. Love them.

Turkey pesto croissant
Amanda S.

Small bakery with both sweet and savory items. Counter service, but there are a few bar stools and little nooks to sit in if you like. I came on an early Saturday afternoon and there was a little bit of a way because they were pretty busy. But staff were friendly and accommodating. The turkey pesto croissant was my favorite item. I'd come back just for that!

Any seating inside? Or is it only takeout?

There is seating inside and it's a GREAT place for breakfast or lunch bite. The breakfast Sammy is OUT OF THIS WORLD good!

Were these guys on NPR last weekend?

Can you just go into the store and buy a cheesecake? Are they fresh or frozen when purchased at the Berkeley store or farmers market?

Yes at the Oakland farmers market on Lakeshore we have them ready to purchase you can swing, by this morning at 9 to 2 to select any of our Cheesecakes.… Read more

Thanks you Charles, can they also be purchased at the main store in Berkeley during business hours?

My interest was piqued when I saw that the location is one of those hidden hole-in-wall spots tucked down a few stairs off of a sidewalk. The interior is super tiny - either 2 people at a time or 1 "group". It's definitely close quarters but I was able to look around at their cases, which still had a decent selection despite it being around 1pm. If I hadn't already eaten lunch, I would've wanted to try their savory croissants. Hopefully next time! The staff were really helpful in answering my questions (what's in the Best Milkshake cheesecake - coffee and oreo, how long will a slice of cheesecake be okay for if not refrigerated - 2 hours, what cookie flavors do you have available). I ended up getting a slice of the Best Milkshake cheesecake, a chocolate espresso cookie, and a cookies and cream cookie. I took the treats back home to Sacramento to split with my husband and we both agreed that they were all amazing! Super glad my coworker told us about Gregory's so we could try it out. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area.

We went mainly for drinks and tried a latte, tiramisu latte, and a Spanish latte. The tiramisu latte and Spanish latte were both really good and definitely my favorites. Smooth, flavorful, and not overly sweet. You can tell the coffee quality is solid. We also tried the matcha drinks in vanilla and strawberry. I liked the strawberry matcha more. It comes unsweetened, so I asked for it to be sweetened and it was great after that. The vanilla matcha was fine too, just not my top pick. They're also dropping a new Ramadan drink soon, a date latte, which sounds really good and I'll probably come back just to try that. Overall, great drinks and a nice place to hang out.

I loved the ambiance, it felt we was in another country. The place was packed I have no idea where everyone parked haha. Very hard to find parking. The Adeni Chai I had was wonderful and I would get again. The lemon pastries I had were good & I would possibly get again. Both cheese pastries & meat pocket I didnt care for so much. I undetstand they are an acquired taste but me being Middle Eastern we have our own versions and I think that's why I didn't like as much. I would definitely go back and try more sweet pastries. They had a large selection I couldn't try them all haha. I would love to try more tea and coffee options as well. Go and try out several different pastries and discover what you like. It's cheaper than buying an airplane ticket to try another countries culture and delights. They also have outside seating which is especially nice on a beautiful day. Pro tip: take an Uber if you can. Parking is hard to get.

If you haven't tried them yet, go before it's too late! I've been lucky enough to try four of their flavors, and each one showcases their signature silky texture and deep flavor. All are not too sweet! My personal favorite is the Kyoto Matcha - the matcha is high-quality, with a vivid green color and rich flavor that balances beautifully with the creamy cheesecake base. The Original is a classic for a reason with deeply caramelized top and creamy interior. I also tried the Iribancha, a roasted green tea flavor. It's intense, smoky, and unique..maybe not one I could finish in one sitting, but definitely memorable and recommend for those who want that earthy/smoky taste. The truffle was also a standout, adding just enough umami to round out the sweetness. Preorders drop via Instagram (@basukucheesecakes) and sell out lightning-fast. Otherwise, plan to line up for slices! Wishing Basuku all the best on their next chapter. Fingers crossed for a return to the Bay someday! Until then, don't miss your chance to try what might be the best cheesecake you've ever had.
