    Chocolate crunch king

    Wow, best cheesecake I have ever had, so soft and airy and smooth, I'm def. Getting cheesecake instead of cake every birthday, I tried the chocolate crunch king and the ex New Yorker and they're both amazing, the chocolate one was a perfect balance chocolate and creme cheese. 1,000/10 def going back

    Fairy Godmother Baby cake

    Love their cheesecakes. Creamy goodness. Creamy goodness throughout and not too sweet! I've tried the Slice My Little Boo Thing, the Pumpkin Mistress, and my personal fave the Fairy Godmother Fairy cake. Locally owned which is even better because it makes me feel good supporting local businesses.

    This is crazy industrial area, be careful!

    False advertisement. No store front. Cheesecake not worth $119! Staff doesn't care about any inconvenience they cause. Don't believe the news, this place is the worst. Does not live up to their own hype. They were in local news and falsely claimed they had a business. They are in an industrial complex, no one there knows about the business. When you finally get someone who knows about business, they won't sell you product. Worst experience ever. It has to be their friends and family giving them good reviews cause first hand experience today was not at all like advertised.

    Oh. My. God. I'm not exaggerating when I say this cheesecake will inspire you to sing, dance and cry with joy. I know what you're thinking: "but I'm on a diet." Don't worry, nothing so pure of joy and goodness could perpetrate any wrongdoing, so I'm convinced there are no calories in this. The s'more cheesecake truly took my breath away today. I am so serious. It is decadent beyond imagination, smooth, and thoughtfully crafted. Not to mention the people baking these masterpieces are truly good people who care about customers and the community, in general (they even raise money for worthy causes). Go find them immediately before I buy the rest of their cheesecakes.

    Best darn cheesecake I've ever had in my LIFE. I've gotten a couple of slices from Sara's Market, and was so excited to see them at the L.A. Times Food Bowl event in September. That was my first time having the chocolate cheesecake and MY GOD. Yes, they're more expensive than the frozen cheesecake you can buy at the grocery store, but so, so worth it.

    The Strawberry Crunch cheesecake was amazing, well worth the price. You will not be disappointed. It was a hit!!

    The Strawberry Seduction with berries on the side at our wedding
    Joe F.

    Cheesecake is my favorite dessert. When COVID restrictions lifted enough for us to safely have our wedding, I pushed hard for a cheesecake as our wedding cake. After testing a lot of the cheesecakes in the area, we selected East Side Cheesecakes for their taste, attractiveness, and general awesomeness. On our wedding day, they delivered - figuratively and literally - and I'd happily recommend them to anyone wanting a premium cheesecake. There's a lot of cheesecake in Los Angeles, and the variety is pretty wild. On one side you've got New York style cheesecake, where you throw in extra cream cheese and fat for a dense, over-the-top experience. On the other side, you have Japanese style cheesecakes like Uncle Tetsu. These are light and spongy, and are sort of like a tastier angel food cake. Different cakes fall along this spectrum. Our East Side Cheesecakes were more of the Western-style - big on flavor, big on sweetness. At the same time though, they were lighter than something you might find at Porto's or The Cheesecake Factory. We got the strawberry cakes, and the acid from the fresh fruit also helped cut the fat of the cake. Together, the bold flavors and lighter than expected density pull off a "Wow" moment exquisitely. The cheesecakes are beautifully done. It can be common for other cakes to get splits down the middle of them - but East Side Cheesecakes puts their effort into style as well as substance. You drop one of these in front of your guests, and they are gonna notice. My one critique is that I have no idea how to keep the strawberry cheesecake looking as good once you cut into it - the berries tend to slide around under the knife. Maybe East Side Cheesecakes can weigh in on this? Anyway, they'll be getting another order from us for my next birthday. Thanks so much for helping make our big day!

    Amazing cheesecake! Definitely getting it again. Can't way to try other flavors. When I went to pick it up, the gentleman was very nice!

    Jeana A.

    Now I am quite the cheesecake fanatic and while I have had many a good cheesecake in my life, NONE of them compare to East Side Cheesecakes. I have tried various flavors of theirs and they are all so creamy, flavorful and just the right amount of sweetness. I have way too many favorites to name them all but trust me when I say they have a flavor for everyone. Julia and Greg are also just the sweetest ppl ever and they work so hard to make such an amazing product. I cannot wait for my next excuse to grab another slice!

    Strawberry Seduction for my daughter's 10th birthday.
    Aubrey L.

    All my daughter wanted was a New York-style cheesecake for her 10th birthday. With COVID-19, we not only had to cancel her in-person party but I wanted to find a cheesecake that would knock it out if the park. Thank goodness for East Side Cheesecake! The Strawberry Seduction was not only the best tasting cheesecake I've ever purchased, they delivered it to our home (contact free). They notified me via email when it was out front. The box was even decorated for my daughter's birthday along with a "sweet" note. Thank you East Side Cheesecake for your ridiculously delicious cheesecake with cream cheese made in-house and amazing customer service!

    Apologies for the poor lighting but I had to snap this before it got all eaten up!

    After 20 plus years of buying 3/5 cakes per year, I will never go back to this bakery. How I miss…read morethe days when Tom still owned this bakery (before his family took over). His customer service and his attention to detail were outstanding! Even after he sold it to a family member, I continued buying my cakes there, as it's been a family tradition for decades. Birthdays, graduations, baby showers, congratulations cakes, and a few holidays throughout the year, we get our cakes here and would always send business their way. But, throughout the years after Tom left, we noticed the quality and quantity not only of their customer service, but also their cakes decline. The sponge got thinner and thinner, as the price steadily continued going up. Basically half the sponge for double the price, but the flavor we all had gotten accustomed to was still the same so we continued buying cakes there. Then a few years back we noticed even the favor and the most basic of decorations started to decline. A basic cake that once had a trim and a few colored flowers, were no longer. "Who wants an all white buttercream cake?? That looks unfinished??" Cakes are purchased for celebration, and instead they are now, with no effort AT ALL just providing these cakes with no decoration at all. Plain, with chocolate writing, that's it that's all. Nowadays, I can get a tastier, better decorated cake at Walmart, and for a 3rd of the price! They have completely destroyed Tom's legacy! And if that's not bad enough, the customer service is now horrendous! I went in to pick up a cake; When I arrived, I asked if the cake was ready as the ones in the fridge didn't look finished or like anything I had ordered. The young lady at the counter tells me it's ready and proceeded to pack up the most hideous plain cake I've ever seen. I paused and asked her, why wasn't it done as ordered? I stated for it to be done in blue (as it's always been done) blue writing, blue, trim, a few blue flowers, and of course the writing (a pretty basic and standard cake, nothing fancy). She looks at a note and tells me "well, we can fix the writing but it's going to look ugly" no apology for their mistake, just this look on her face, like it bothered her that it was brought to her attention. Then I showed her photos of previous purchased cakes (from there) and she stated well, I've never seen you here... well, I hadn't seen her either, still doesn't change the fact that... 1. It was done wrong and the cake was not what I had ordered... 2. That she had a horrible attitude. People like her is the reason small shops like this one go out of business. No one wants to have their time wasted, and give up their hard earned money for a "professional" service to be provided and met with mediocre service, the wrong order, and on top of that given an attitude and asked to pay extra to correct their mistakes and confusion; if I wanted as ordered! AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE WE'LL NEVER RETURN. WE'RE TAKING OUR BUSINESS AND OUR MONEY TO AN ESTABLISHMENT THAT TREATS THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH COURTESY AND RESPECT, THAT DOESNT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS WHEN INTRUSTING THEM WITH OUR BUSINESS ON SPECIAL OCCASIONS OR EVENTS. They should be ashamed of therselfs, and they should seriously look in to new hires! Save yourself the hassle of having to deal with the same kind of experience, and go elsewhere!

The cream filling cascaded across my palate like a Mediterranean breeze, while subtle notes of butter created a symphony that left me defenseless! But the assault wasn't over. The black sesame cake sat before me, ominous and alluring like midnight itself. One bite, and suddenly I was falling through dimensions of flavor! The nutty, earthy depth of toasted sesame seeds wrapped around me like a silken robe, each layer revealing new secrets. Sweetness balanced perfectly against that characteristic bitter edge--yin and yang achieved in cake form! The texture? Impossibly moist, almost sinful in its richness. Finally, the berry pavlova delivered the knockout blow. Crisp meringue SHATTERED into a million crystalline fragments, giving way to clouds of cream and an explosion of berry compote that was simultaneously tart, sweet, and utterly devastating. A culinary arena where only the strongest taste buds survive!
