Had I not looked up bakeries in the area and scoured google maps, I probably would not have found this place. The place is pretty small with seating for maybe 5 people. It's more of an order/pickup and go kind of place. Service is good and it's on a street close to a residential area so there's a lot of places for you to park. They have a variety of pastries to select from and do specialty cakes as well. Overall, the quality of the baked goods is very good, but it is quite pricey. I'm not sure the high quality can justify the item prices.

I happen to pass by Pastry Land and it caught my eye. Pastry? That sounded good. And a quick…read moreglance at Yelp yielded a 4.5 star rating. Coming in, I first could see the individually portioned rectangles of cakes and viennoiseries. No prices. That's actually a pet peeve of mine, as I dislike needing to take up the attention of a employee just to ask what the price is of something, in case another customer is behind me. Next, to the left, I spied their various baklava type sweets. But we are trying to eat fewer sweets, so initially I thought this might just be a reconnaissance visit. Further along yielded some savories. I pointed at and asked for one apiece of their chicken phyllo triangle (chicken briwat - shredded spiced chicken with sweet onion), the spinach flatbread (spinach herb cheese), and semolina pancake (Golden Pancake). These were pretty good. And service was nice. The sweets I picked up on another visit were poofy, but the filling ratio a bit off. Averaging out to maybe 3.5 in my book?

Then, even as we…read moreapproach or surpass 30 we all realize: "I still don't know what the heck I'm doing half of the time." The same is true of me and my reviews. One would think a 1,000+ reviews in I'd gain some level of confidence! Yet, there are still reviews where I feel I am just winging it. Of course, I try to give my thoughts and opinions as best I can, still, I feel as though I were approaching 30 and can't believe I am technically an adult. This is the case with Pastry Land. I've been in here probably half a dozen times, and only now have I decided to put words on paper by wasting your time with irrelevant metaphors. ONWARDS! Pastry Land has great European style cakes and pastries. Their selection is wide and varied, and the quality is terrific! Everything I've had is distinct, scrumptious, and not over-sweet. Okay, great, so why four stars? Well, with the exception of a pistachio baklava square that knocked my socks off, I didn't find their goods were above and beyond sufficient as to drag me back with the same magnetism as Tatté or Flour (for e.g. - I know these are in different categories). They meet expectations, which is a solid four in my book. For some final notes: I feel that the value is fair in light of the quality. Also, the location itself is spacious, very clean, and the staff are friendly.

We looked atvall the options and she explained what each one was. I asked her about the scones and she told me which f k avors were available. I opted for a blueberry scone. It was served with butter on the side along with a sample of a bread we has asked about. The scone was one of the best I have ever had. Th texture, flavor, blueberries and light glaze were perfect.and so so fresh. Coming from an Irish family we have had many scones in our life. My sister had a warm slice of fresh tomato and basil pizza. She also thought it was delicious. We were served fresh coffee, a bit strong for me but fine for my sister. She also purchased 2 loaves of bread ( which were lovely ). Love this plac e and will certainly go back. ndly

The mixed green byrek with kale and a hint of dill was just as good. The tiramisu was the pièce de résistance--easily the second best I've ever had (and I'm very particular). The ladyfingers were perfectly soaked, and the cocoa balanced the sweet mascarpone cream. We also tried the gelato during their grand opening special. The stracciatella's dark chocolate slivers paired beautifully with the vanilla base, and the salted caramel hit the right sweet-salty balance. Bonus points for being served in classic glass dishes. The space is fresh and clean, the staff is friendly, and we'll definitely be back.
