    Box of cookies
    Stephanie F.

    Cookies are ok. Nothing I can't try elsewhere. $21.47 for 4 is really steep. The best one was the strawberry shortcake cookie with jam inside but not worth the price.

    I have been looking for a fun dirty soda place (I've been making my own at home, but soda from a soda machine is just so much better). The staff was quick and the cookies had the best interior. I'd come back to try their flavors next season!

    Mixed reviews in my house on this place. I really liked the dirty sodas. We got the peachy-keen and the coco loco. I thought they were both good, but my wife didn't really like the coco loco. We also got the "reverse" cookie, chocolate inside of peanut butter, which I thought was ok, but my wife didn't really like. Overall I'm giving it a 4 because I thought it was ok.

    Finally tried Dana Point's not so dirty little secret Dirty Dough, for the Peanut Butter Indulgence cookie, appropriately named, as it was indulgent, a plus for butter and chocolate lovers like me! I also finally succumbed to my curiosity about a "Dirty Soda" and tried the Coco Loco (which happens to be one of my daughter Chloe's nicknames ). I must admit the concept had me dubious and a bit reluctant, but it was good and not sickeningly sweet as expected, though I would still rather spend my calories trying a "Dirty Shake" next time! The storefront is really cute, very clean and the staff is very welcoming.

    Someone's review said the cookie inside was too dough-y and raw, which enticed me to come here LOL. love a good dough/raw internal. when you order they pull the cookie out of the racks, then put the cream or any toppings on top, so you get the "freshest" cookie possible which I love!! I will say the inside w the extra sugar and then topped w the cream is good but IS super heavy- it's delicious but not something i'd repeatedly eat which I can do with ice cream or other less 150% sugar items. either way, was delicious!

    Cute spot with shakes, cookies with ice cream bowls and large cookies. We only tried the cookies and cream shake and it was yummy!

    These are amazing cookies. We got a four pack: chocolate chip (100/10) - not too sweet and the perfect combo of crispy on the outside and ooey gooey on the inside; the brookie (10/10) - chocolate and caramel decadence; rocky road 10/10) - if ice cream was a cookie, this is the one; and the inside out (10/10) - chocolate and so much peanut butter. You need to eat them hot and right out of the oven. These are perfect. They also have a selection of fun dirty sodas. No question - we will be back.

    Decided to drive down after dinner tonight and give Dirty Dough a try. So glad we did! First off may I just say how impressed we were with the young staff members working tonight - we'd come back just for them!! So friendly and so helpful with placing our order. Cute little shop in the newly renovated center of Dana Point - great location, surrounded by lots of trendy restaurants and just a few minutes drive from the beach. I loved how bright and clean it was! The shake was a hit with my son who is training for an Ironman - after burning 4100 calories today, the shake helped top him off. My daughter loved the dirty bowl and I was glad to share a cookie with my husband. It was delicious but too calorie laden for me to want a whole cookie to myself. I think Dirty Dough is a great new addition to Dana Point - welcome to the neighborhood!!

    The cookies are truly incredible. Each one is freshly baked, with a gooey texture that makes them melt beautifully in your mouth. You can taste the quality of the ingredients used. The service at the shop was outstanding; the staff was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience enjoyable. We ordered four boxes of cookies, which were reasonably priced at $17.50--an excellent value for such delicious treats. I have to say, these cookies are significantly better than those from Crumbl Cookies. Each bite is a delightful experience!

    Cookie and cream cookie and wedding cake cookie
    Ally G.

    Wow. Wow. Wow. Very good. I got two items: 1. Cookies and cream cookie. It was filled with a creamy gooey filling. It reminded me a little bit of a pazookie from BJs (without the ice cream of course). 2. My husband got the wedding cake cookie. It was a sugar cookie with a fruit jelly topping and same creamy gooey filling as my cookie. The cookie was very good but I think the cookies and cream was better! I don't live close to this place but would willing to drive back just to have these cookies again!!

    If you want to pay $5 for mushy and greasy uncooked cookies covered with frosting, this the place to come.

    ORANGE COUNTY CREAMERY @ SAN CLEMENTE…read more This spot is located in downtown San Clemente. My boyfriend and I were just walking by after parking on the street nearby. Most of the street parking is free, some spots are two hours while others are only 20 minutes, so definitely pay attention to the signs. Parking can be a little difficult, but once you see someone leave, you can usually grab a spot pretty quickly. We honestly didn't have too much trouble finding parking, it just depends on timing and luck. There aren't really seats inside, but they do have one big table outside. Overall, downtown San Clemente is super walkable, and there are plenty of benches nearby where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream while walking around. My boyfriend and I tried a bunch of their flavors, and my personal favorite was the mint chocolate chip. The chocolate flakes inside were so delicious and had the perfect texture. My boyfriend got the chocolate coffee flavor, which he really liked too. We each got one scoop, and it came out to around $4-5 each. Overall, everything was delicious. It feels like a small hidden gem, and I would definitely come back. The ice cream was super good, and the service was great too.

I tried the pineapple coconut flavor and personally wasn't a big fan of that one, but the salted caramel lavender was absolutely delicious. It had a really nice floral lavender flavor that wasn't overpowering at all. The kids loved the peanut butter chip and the pistachio swirl too. Overall, a great spot for dessert and we'd definitely come back to try more flavors!

    Yes, it's all about the cake. This homemade cake shop is highly regarded locally…read more All the desserts are made with fresh ingredients, and have an excellent appearance. While the prices are slightly higher than in other places, this shop offers special orders and various cakes. We came here after a fest at Jimmy's famous American tavern restaurant. So we decided to just buy one raspberry cupcake. I had it for breakfast in the morning. It was super delicious. It was a very satisfying chocolate cupcake with a raspberry cream on top covered in fine chocolate. I regretted that we discovered it the night just before we departed. Also, our hotel was just crossing the street from this shop. We stayed at the hotel for four days and three nights. All in all, the pastries and the service quality were truly exceptional. The owner is very friendly and helpful.

This time for my birthday, I thought we'd try a standard flavor cake since they should be making it on the regular. We got the lemon delight. It was super sweet. I couldn't eat any of the frosting and the frosting filling next to the lemon was very sweet. They also messed up my name. I remember my husband spelling out my name like the military nato style too but what was written on the order form was wrong. And then on the cake was wrong and didn't even match the order form. I know my name is difficult but I guess the decorator wasn't there so it was a difficult fix. They apologized and gave us candles. On a side note and not affecting this rating: We ate at the cafe side once and it was good. But we sat outside and had a bad experience unrelated to the cafe. Someone with their huge hairy dog was just outside the cafe and rubbing their long hair dog getting it into the air and the wind was blowing it all over our food and drinks and also in the nearby tables. Definitely killed the appetite. This is not affecting the rating. Rating is based solely on the cakes.
