This is a rare 5 star review from me! A local restaurant that is far enough away from the tourist areas or downtown that you want to go for a nice sit down without a long wait or huge menu. The most impressive thing is the works of art that are deserts in the showcase. Knowing that the draw is the sweets I was pleasantly surprised that they have food, beer and wine to set up a nice full meal. Our order was so complete that we had to take home th desert that we camefor in togo boxes. if you are a soup or tomato love I highly suggest getting there cup of tomatoes soup and salad. my eyes popped out of my head when they brought me salad that seemed big enough for two people. With a side of smoked salmon I couldn't fit everything in. My partner had a sandwich that was bigger than the size of her head and a crazy nice strawberry spritzer. The cheesecake smob that I am I took home something that I took a a chance on because I am trying not to be a creature of habits. A lemon strudel cheesecake out of the refrigerator the next day is probably better freshly made. When I go back I will defiantly make space for everything. This is a hidden gem that I hope stays local and a tour bus dosen't stop at the front door. read more

Been here many times. In this case..disappointed. make sure you point out the cookie you want because thebone I got (cherry chocolate chip) did not look like ANYTHING lime the ones on display. They offered to replace it but prefaced it with "we'll just have to throw this one away" I dont like to waste so I just accepted the lackluster looking and it also wound up to be one of the worst $6 cookies EVER! My wife had a Turkey sandwich which she was happy with. read more

The desserts at both locations are indeed extraordinary. Every dessert is lush and decadent and definitely a treat. This location is much smaller than the other and just as popular so it can feel hectic when busy. Highly recommend the Le Bette Noir, Black Velvet and The Viking cakes. You can't go wrong with anything you try here! read more

We came here after getting dinner and it was the perfect choice the dessert we got was definitely 10/10 service was fast and they had a really nice place where we sat to eat our dessert we also got some strawberry ice cream that was so fresh and natural ! The ambiance was so perfect they have a wall of teas in a bag we got to see for next time will be back here again ! And I don't even like sweets like that so perfect choice you won't regret! read more

WOW! The difference between ordinary and extraordinary, is a little "extra". If you're looking for the best desserts and cakes in San Diego, Extraordinary desserts is it! It is expensive, but worth every penny. That said, most restaurant desserts are typically over $10 nowadays anyways. Clean, modern, ambience...friendly service is order at the counter and take a number. This place is legendary, I think its been around for 20+ years now? $13 Tortamisu...Tiramisu and Cake make love, and gave birth to a delicoius mixed race cake. $11 Rasberry fruit bar...tart and sweet, fresh berries $14 Blackberry Forest...fresh blackberries blended into decadent chocolate and vanilla cake layers, heavenly butter cream. read more

Brendan was so helpful explaining the ingredients in each dessert and my friend and I enjoyed chatting with him about them. We quickly decided on a tortamisu for me and a fruit tart for her and our drinks were for me iced brown sugar with oat milk and she had an iced matcha with strawberry. Everything was delicious and presentation so exquisite! The restaurant itself had plenty of seating with a modern feel to it. If you're in the area come check it out!! Perfect date night ending or girls' night out. read more

Ambiance: this location is small in scale but lack of maintenance, both indoor and outdoor tables were left uncleaned for a while during my visit, and their restroom ran out of paper, street parking only with limited spots Service: friendly but overall disappointing, I don't think staff deliberately sold me something bad, however, it's not a pleasant experience Food: limited choices through midday already, I wanted to order passion fruit ricotta and black velvet, but they ran out both already, so I took their advice and ordered something else the cashier suggested BLOOD ORANGE RICOTTA - * sweet, tangy, juicy raspberries, cranberries, and blood orange whipped cream are layered in between blood orange juice moistened ricotta cakes, the orange slice looked very dry, and the cake itself tasted old, apparently it's made too long ago, and no longer clean and likely had accumulated bacteria, it caused bad stomach pain and diarrhea afterwards Price: standard extraordinary desserts prices, expect about $15 per slice of cake, keep in mind they charge service fee read more

(Dined 04/02/26 TH @ 5:30pm): Fact... these desserts looked extraordinary! After a relaxing lunch at Dunedin New Zealand Eats, my friend recommended a stop at Extraordinary Desserts before we headed back to L.A. He'd been to another location once before and obviously left an impression on him. Founded by renowned pastry chef Karen Krasne, her exquisite creations of showstopping cakes and desserts seamlessly blended global flavors with the finest local ingredients, and have been featured on many food TV shows. Would I have an extraordinary moment with these fanciful desserts!? PURCHASE(S) NV Adami Garbel Brut Prosecco Treviso DOC Bubbly Glass ($15.00): Screw-off cap, hazy translucent color, fruity sweet aroma, fruity sweet flavor, light body, crisp effervescent finish, drying fruity aftertaste. I felt this paired well with desserts since I didn't drink coffee. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=ekYLgUCz71V4zQO24ypSew Black Velvet Cake Slice ($13.95): Chocolate cake layers moistened with vanilla bean syrup, cream cheese mascarpone cremeuse, dark chocolate ganache and salted chocolate cocoa nibs, this cake was heavy, stout, and stuck to your ribs https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=E8CZe6S7aWefPjB9PW9Ldw but all in a very good way! The decadence of sweetness slammed onto your palate and wouldn't let go as the tastes of chocolate and cream cheese lingered. A tall glass of cold milk may have complemented this well but probably would've washed away all of the coated goodness in your mouth. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=eS8Ef2ReXJuUhTRlw82F8g Passion Fruit Ricotta Cake Slice ($13.95): Fluffy white ricotta cake layers filled with blended coconut, kiwi, pineapple, strawberry, and more in a whipped cream topped with a thick cream and a mango wedge, this was like the Christmas holiday fruit cake we all wished we actually got! The tropical sweetness in every bite took you to a white-sand beach as the waves lapped onto the shore; pure bliss! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=oAmMphA3wJ9419C_LrqTVg SERVICE We were greeted by the friendly staff behind the dual-purpose display cases and order counters when it was finally our turn. Before then, we took our time staring at the desserts while those in front of us placed their orders. The ordering process was "cake", we were given a number to place on our table, and within five minutes, someone came and delivered our order. Afterwards, someone came and cleared our table. Everything was easy and straightforward - thank you! PARKING (Varied; $2.00 this instance): We found a spot along nearby Palm St. and fed the meter. Otherwise, there appeared to be available metered spots along the main drag of Fourth Ave. and all of the surrounding business streets (read any posted signs) - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A clean modern place that featured the central lone dual-purpose display cases https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=hyEl53Ok2dx9IFyMsXhyKQ and order counters where everyone queued once you entered. There was a merchandise section while plenty of seating was available along the walls. There was also a partially-covered spacious sidewalk patio excellent for people watching or on warm days. Fabulous natural lighting throughout while various electric ceiling lights (inside) filled in the rest. There weren't any TVs while indie music played in the background. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Extraordinary Desserts was an orgasmic experience that slammed my tastebuds and I couldn't wait to visit again since they had several more cakes to try... in addition to a variety of beers, coffees, teas, wines, and more, paired with a limited food menu! Although these prices were elevated, the obvious craft, creativeness, and love that went into each of these cakes was undeniable. The type of service offered was more than sufficient. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $45.00 BEFORE any discounts, points usage, and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

My family and I have been fans of Extraordinary Desserts for a while, their desserts never fail to amaze us. But I'd like to highlight the Sip&Yap experience, I will say this was a highly recommendable experience for my friend and I. This is a triple tier treat or savory and sweets that leaves you satisfied and full, even taking leftovers home. Booking is easy and they are very understanding when I had a mix up on days I booked. The dining area is spacious and has plenty of seating to choose from and the decor is nice and modern. Parking can be difficult but it's downtown so that's to be expected. But overall great spot and to enjoy something sweet and makes your day even more special. read more

Wedding cake tasting #3 of 3 - have heard good things about the taste and visual appeal of this dessert spot, but hadn't stopped by in many years. The shop is sleek, long and modern. We were surprised that many of the cakes were not available in slices - a whole case, in fact. There was only one case that had sliceable cakes, all of which seemed to have a fruit element. We tried the blood orange ricotta and the chocolate blackberry. Unfortunately, while beautifully presented and substantial in portion, neither of the flavors wowed us. Especially compared to the cakes we'd previously tried at two other local cake shops. My favorite thing was the raspberry orange sauce served on the plate with the orange ricotta slice, but those tart, wonderfully assertive flavors were, sadly, not present in the cake itself. read more

Located in Bankers Hill. Cozy place perfect for dessert and coffee dates. Cute date night or girls hang out. Parking is grim and can be tricky. Had to drive around on a Saturday evening. Desserts are 8/9, our group agreed everything was good. The cream/ coolie/ whatever the proper name is for the liquid was a bit overwhelming for the cakes we got. The consensus: The cakes 8.5/10 The brown sugar latte 7/10 Coffee 9/10 They use to have much greater variety of desserts and it seems over the years they have narrowed it down. Brought someone here from out of town and surprised that the quantity of desserts has greatly diminished while the food menu items has expanded. Considering the name is Extraordinary Desserts, would love to see the desserts expand while possibly shorted food item. Cashier was very nice and establishment was very clean including restrooms. Would return for a good quality dessert and coffee. read more

Definitely the perfect spot if you're looking for a decedent sweet treat. Got a few desserts to share for a group, carrot cake, bread pudding with merengue, Dubai chocolate cake and a few pots of tea. The desserts were good, but the extra sauces and syrups on the plate made it unnecessarily sweet. Dubai chocolate wasn't quite Dubai inspired, it was mostly chocolate with some pistachio. Service was attentive and friendly, menu has a lot of sweet and savory options, there's indoor and outdoor seating, street parking is a little trickier. read more

Came here for a after dinner dessert. The location was a big hard to find, it's kind of hidden. Their selections of desserts look amazing, beautiful and the most difficult part is figuring out which to get. We ordered the Dubai it was a delicious chocolate on chocolate cake, and paired it with an americano. It was delicious. The desserts are a little pricy, but I think they are good portions and delicious, so in the end worth it. They also have a wine selection, but coffee goes best with it. Will definitely be coming back here. read more

It's impossible to stop in here and not leave with something. We weren't planning to get anything, but couldn't help but take a peek. The desserts really are extraordinarily beautiful. We left with a lemonade with kiwi, and a chocolate chip cookie with cherries and walnuts. The lemonade! Fresh crushed kiwi will now need to be in every lemonade I drink :). The cookie was also delicious. Indoor seating is not particularly pleasant so would recommend ordering and taking home or to share with others. read more

La Bete Noir ($14.95) - I was blown away by this 6-layer cake, which consisted of chocolate mousse, vanilla crème brûlée, chocolate ganache, dark chocolate cake, AND a vanilla bean syrup. The vanilla balanced the rich, decadent chocolate so well and the cake layers were so moist. This is one of the best slices of cake I've ever had! Carrot Cake Scone ($5.95) - They captured the carrot cake flavor so well with this scone. read more

A Very Disappointing and Uncomfortable Experience I honestly had an awful day and, at the end of it, I simply wanted to get a slice of cake to cheer myself up. It was something small, but I was looking forward to having a little treat and ending the day on a better note. I placed my order at 8:59 p.m., just one minute before the establishment was scheduled to close at 9:00 p.m. I completely understand that placing an order right before closing may not be ideal for the employees, and I understand that everyone wants to get home at the end of their shift. However, the business was still open, and I was simply ordering something that was available. What happened afterward really caught me off guard. Immediately after my order ticket printed, I heard an employee say something very loudly. The timing was so immediate that I couldn't help but feel that the comment was about my order or about me. I don't want to put words in anyone's mouth or claim to know exactly what they meant, but hearing it loudly enough for me to clearly hear, immediately after placing my order, made me feel extremely uncomfortable. And honestly, given the kind of day I had already been having, it really affected me. I wasn't looking for anything complicated. I wasn't asking for special treatment. I just wanted a slice of cake to make myself feel a little better after having a terrible day. Instead, I ended up sitting there feeling embarrassed, uncomfortable, and honestly disgusted by what I had heard. I've worked in hospitality myself, so I understand what it's like to have a long shift and to be ready to close. I understand the frustration that can come with getting an order at 8:59 p.m. But I've also learned that customers shouldn't be made to feel like they're a problem or a burden for ordering while a business is still open. If your posted closing time is 9:00 p.m., someone ordering at 8:59 p.m. shouldn't be made to feel guilty or uncomfortable for doing so. I'm not writing this to attack the employee personally, and I can't speak to their intentions. I'm simply sharing my experience and how it made me feel. The timing, the volume of the comment, and the fact that it happened immediately after my ticket printed made me feel incredibly unwelcome. Sometimes people don't realize how much a seemingly casual comment can affect someone. You never know what kind of day the person on the other side of the counter has had or how much that small interaction might mean to them. I walked in wanting something as simple as a slice of cake to end a difficult day on a positive note. Unfortunately, I walked away feeling worse than when I came in. I hope management takes this seriously and reminds staff that even when they're tired, frustrated, or ready to close, customers still deserve to feel respected and welcome until the doors actually close. read more

Extraordinary Desserts (San Diego) was... unfortunately not so extraordinary. Let's start with the positives--the presentation is beautiful. The desserts look stunning, and the space has a cute patio setup that makes it a popular date-night spot. The location is nice, and they also offer wine and charcuterie boards, which adds to the overall experience vibe. But when it comes to the actual desserts... it fell short. The Croissant Chocolate Bread Pudding looked amazing, but it was served cold and hard, which completely took away from it. I even asked if they could warm it up and was told they don't offer warming, which was surprising for something like bread pudding. The cookie was another letdown--brittle and slightly burnt tasting, especially disappointing at around $7. Service didn't help either. I still waited about 10 minutes for pastries that weren't warmed, and overall it felt pretty subpar and inattentive. Also worth noting--no indoor seating, just the outdoor patio. Bottom line: You're paying for the aesthetic, not the quality. It's a nice spot for a date or photos, but if you're actually craving great desserts, there are much better options out there. read more

Decent spot for dessert if you are in the area! The cakes are very decadent so I definitely recommend splitting across a few people. Our group ordered the carrot cake, Dubai chocolate cake and the bread pudding. All had good flavor - my favorite was the carrot cake. I was not a fan of the plating of the cake though - it was almost swimming in a very sweet glaze that somewhat took over the experience of the cakes. I will be sure to request no glaze next time. Service was relatively quick even though it was crowded! It is open seating - both indoor and outdoor options. read more

Our go to lunch and dessert spot everytime we come to SD. It is a must! This is our first time at this location but the food and desserts were just as good and consistent. For sandwiches we ordered the BLT grilled cheese with the tomato basil soup and a mushroom grilled cheese sandwich. Then ordered about 3 different desserts including the black velvet, strawberry pastry and lemon tart. With a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The black velvet cake had more of a marscapone filling compared to cake. The strawberry pastry was delicious and warm. The lemon tart was also delicious and had a tarty filling. My favorite. I also tried their strawberry rose lemonade, which is basically what it tasted like. A carbonated lemonade with a strawberry rose flavor. Definitely not the taste I was expecting and very different for my taste buds. Overall, this place is good but I prefer the other location (little italy) is better as the restaurant is much bigger and has a lot more indoor seating. Both are street parking only. Service was good, quick with the desserts but took some time to make the sandwiches. read more

Came here on a Friday night with some friends. There was a decent amount of street parking, which was nice for a Friday. We ordered the blueberry ricotta cheesecake coffee cake (yes, quite the mouthful -- literally). It was a really interesting combo -- some bites were light and fluffy, almost pancake-like, while others were denser, more like a traditional coffee cake. Overall, it was a creative and enjoyable dessert, though not the best I've had here. That said, I'd definitely be interested in coming back to try some of their other desserts -- I know their rotating menu always has some great options. read more

What's an evening without dessert after nice dinner in little Italy? This is a cute bakery that has been here for a very long time. You have a choice to dine inside or outside. We took it to go. Husband ordered a blueberry cheesecake type of tarte. Daughter and I split bread pudding. It took well over 15 mins to put it all together. My husband was almost impatient and asked why it's taking so long to just cut the premade baked goods and put it in container. It was a Sunday night and busy but I agree, there was a decent amount of employees. I didn't think so much of the staff. No would stood out and no one went out of their way. The baked goods were ok but not worth what we ordered for the price. Maybe next time.... read more

This place is very good whenever you have a sweet tooth, as their desserts are very rich and decadent. I absolutely love their strawberry danish and I try to get it whenever I go. This shop is very lively, and they usually have a long line. They also do take a while to have your order ready, so patience is definitely needed here. The staff is friendly and will give recommendations on what's great and new. The only downside to this location would be that you do have to pay for parking, which is now expected in San Diego. read more

Had a $50 gift card to use with my mom for her birthday and only going $0.61 over, we were able to order four petite desserts and a Strawberry Rose Lemonade to go. There was a line reaching the door, but it wasn't a long wait and actually gave us enough time to pick which desserts we wanted to bring home. Parking took a bit longer (fortunately free on Sundays), but we were able to find a space a block down. After making our selection, the desserts were all wrapped and well-fitted into a white box. Initially, I was worried about the appearance after unfolding the wrapping. However, only the cake slice seemed to be affected with a small crack near the tip (totally okay with us). It is worth noting the desserts took an hour drive and were refrigerated for a couple more hours before we were all able to try them. There were four of us in our family trying an equally cut piece of each dessert, and the lemonade was tried by only my mom and myself. Our consensus of each item is as follows: * Strawberry Rose Lemonade (Not Imaged, Apologies) * Very refreshing, slightly fizzy, and tart. The strawberry and lemon were more pronounced in overall taste, but the floral notes were certainly there. * Bundt Cake Chocolate Raspberry Truffle * The cake part isn't too sweet and wasn't as buttery as expected. We might've found it to be a tad dry, but for some, this was much preferred. Overall, the cake itself was well balanced with a very rich glaze of ganache. It was also decorated with chocolate pieces, rose petals, a pair of raspberries, and a small bit of raspberry compote (or confit ?) at its center, which worked quite well. * Passion Fruit Ricotta (Slice) * Easily the best of the bunch; the kind of bite you save for last and an ideal springtime dessert. It was light, refreshing, and very smooth. Also, the right amount of sweet and a perfect contrast to the other rich or dense desserts we tasted. * Caramelized Crème Brûlée Bun * The flavor of the crème brûlée was subtle and pillowy, with the crust also being a nice chewy texture. Very light and creamy. It was also remarkably easy to cut into neat parts. * Fresh Lemon Scone * We love lemon desserts and this had the right amount of tartness for us; delicately muted and not overbearing. The outer glaze gave it greater sturdiness, but each bite remained a tender crumble. The candied lemon slice was also delicious, as a sour complement. read more

It's a great place to satisfy that sweet craving. When I arrived there was no line to get pastries and there were plenty of seats. I would go here more so to end the night but it can also be a great way to start the morning, especially when you're taking coffee and desserts into consideration. The only con I would have to say is the coffee is a bit expensive compared to other brands and isn't anything special. "Crunchy" chocolate chip was good but next time I'll probably get the regular one. Blueberry cheesecake was moist and texture was soft. Both desserts were aesthetically pleasing. read more

It has been years since I last came to Extaordinary desserts. This was my first time to the Bankers Hill location. We came on a late Sunday afternoon when the restaurant didnt seem too busy, however finding parking was still a bit of a challenge. I love that the quality of the desserts has remained consistent all these years! Taste and presentation are still perfection! Today I tried the pavlova, lemon bar, and a slice of carrot cake which were all incredible! Each dessert there feels too pretty to eat. I admire the time and attention to detail that they put into their desserts. read more

I've been to extraordinary desserts a couple years ago and wasn't too impressed so I tried it again to see if I like it ... nope. Spent $35 on a chocolate cake, lemon bar and a danish.

The interior and outside is super cute but that's about it. I definitely won't be back. read more

I don't eat dessert (my wife does) and I went for the food. My wife said her cake was delicious. The food was a little underwhelming but I can't fault a dessert place for that. I was surprised the bill was so expensive but I got an herbal tea, and we both got sandwiches alongside the cake. Wasn't very impressed with the staff, one gave up on us while we were taking too long looking at the menu and walked away. I was impressed with the super tall, heavy doors though. Cool patio! read more

I got the blueberry coffee cake, not amazing though good. It was heavy and I expected a nice fluffy cake not a dense cake. And why put rose pedals on the food, they spent more time making it look pretty then they do on flavor, I don't want to pick off non food items before I eat! the service was not even close to extraordinary! They acted like we were an inconvenience, in fact we could have waled out without paying she put ate bag on the counter as we she walked away saying have a good day, couldn't even stop so we tapped our card and walked out without even an a glance.

Very rich decadent desserts. But just try to pick just one. Maybe if I lived here I could try one a month but I chose two. I ordered the Strawberry Patisserie and the Chocolate Shortbread Sweetheart cookie. Both desserts are very good and heavy and delicious. I really enjoyed them but I couldn't do more than half at a sitting. My husband and I split. Place is very cozy looking and it was nice since we were out walking in the rain. Staff is friendly and can guide you through the menu. I would go back again. Thank goodness I don't live close by. read more

Really disappointing experience. They advertise a $7 weekday wine special, but none of the wines included were actually available. Even though they have a large wine menu, the one wine tied to the special was only offered to us at full price. We had to ask them to honor the $7 deal, which felt awkward and honestly a bit scammy. On top of that, there were a lot of gnats/fruit flies, making it hard to enjoy our wine. For a place like this, I expected much better and left feeling discouraged about coming back. read more

Extraordinary Desserts is a San Diego classic and for good reason - Delicious and absolutely gorgeous desserts. There are two locations in Little Italy and Bankers Hill but I personally prefer the Bankers Hill location - it's slightly smaller, less busy, and easier to find street parking. I've never been disappointed with the selection either. Prices are extremely fair for such beautiful little creations. Freshly made, pretty to look at it, and most importantly very tasty. There's nothing that I've tried and haven't enjoyed from here. Highly recommend! read more
